If u can improve one over the other through enchants WITHOUT upgrading them, then u'll have a weapon u be proud of.

The crossbow's major disadvantage compared to other bows is the fact that since you must pull the string back and then load a bolt, the loading time is considerably longer than a bow where you pull the string and load an arrow simultaneously. Arrow Revolver removes this issue, since you only load once and can fire 5 times. A crossbow has a much higher critical rate than other bows and better damage, so if you don't have to deal with the load time due to AR bypassing it, there's basically no reason to not use a crossbow. However, until you get AR it's best to use a conventional bow, usually a leather longbow. If you're really into getting the most out of the combat system (and have ZERO lag) you might even want to look into learning the elusive Shot of God technique which allows you to fire much faster than normal and hit 100% of the time. It's something that you, the PLAYER have to learn, not your character, so it takes practice time, but it's definitely worth being able to fire incredibly fast and have 100% accuracy.

Ok
