Bows or Crossbows?

[Blackdragonbird]

Can anyone more experienced help me there? I'm using Ifan, but I can't see the point of crossbows vs bows. They have basically the same stats, with the crossbows giving a -1 to movement, and nothing else.

Am I missing something?

Just the tradeoff 5-10% damage for lack of mobility. If you like to kite more then a bow is perfect for you. Others might like to get to a vantage point and try to burst

Bow - less damage, more movement

Crossbows - more dmg, less movement

Thank you for the information.

Seems that the weapons are basically the same. A pitty.

I would love to see more differences between them. But, ok.

Yeah in DOS 1 they were very different. But those mechanics would be unbalanced if ported over to this game the same way
