Vampire vs. Human Crossbow and Longbow

[fenrismaximus]

Why is the range on the vampire crossbow shorter than the human crossbow and was is the projectile speed slower??? Even with the iron crossbow human crossbows shoot farther and projectile speed is faster. The longbow is ridicule as it can shoot across an entire screen...

What bugs me the most about the crossbow is that nobody in Vardoran bothers to pre-load the crossbow bolt so that it's ready to fire.

The reload delay should come AFTER you fire the arrow, not before.

Or at least give players the choice of when to do the reload by making it a separate action that must be performed to fire the next shot...

Xbow does feel a little gimped once you get to pistols, admittedly. ;p
I'd be happy with a tighter/less spread xbow Q and a little more atk spd myself.

I honestly think the attack speed could be addressed by simply making reload a separate action that can be done at one's leisure rather than uncontrollably pinned to the beginning of every shot.

More than 50% of the crossbow firing animation is just you loading the shot. It's ridiculous.

I'm wondering why the Longbows and Most Range Units have such a Large Health Pool. Seems insane for range, while Warrior and Brute Blood Mobs have average to Meh Health Pools.

They just seem so Tanky too, With Default Settings on my solo server.

maybe you switch to pistols when you unlocked them (sure , they have a even lower range then crossbows but reload really quick)
