Xbow, xbow, fashion xbow

[Torp]

i like the idea of buffing dedicated xbowers and nerfing xbow as a sidearm, but it should only be done if throwing as a sidearm is nerfed too, otherwise everyone would just throw.

did some testing, about 15-20 kills
95p crossbow vs 30 str 10 IF 60 armor helmet
the closer bodies on the pic are the only ones that died from 1 shot to the head, further targets had cca. 1-15% hp left after the hit

That sucks if you still were able to 1 shot him with all that HP and armor.

95p crossbow vs 30 str 10 IF 60 armor helmet
died from 1 shot to the head

Sniper Crossbow
thrust damage 75 pierce

So... a triple heirloomed sniper x-bow was the basis for testing?  Also pointing out that he specifically said to the head.

Conclusion:  The people whining about getting 1-shot by x-bows are either:
naked and low strength
getting shot in the face (headshots SHOULD 1-shot you)
lying

95p is MW + bolts. Thus regular is 83p. Just a minor thing though.

No, you're wrong.  This has been tested on the duel server thoroughly.  With a headshot the regular xbow, heavy xbow and sniper xbow will all 1-shot a 27 str, 9 IF player wearing a 50 armor helmet.  Masterworks are guaranteed.

1-shot body hits don't happen unless you're low str and nekkid.

How come a few of my headshots at people wearing heavy helmets doesn't kill them, and the 'whiplash-animation comes? I've seen enough of that animation in native to know that it's a survived headshot.

Ah, you're right I didn't factor in bolts.  Thanks.

If it makes you feel better an 83p xbow 1 shot him at 1cm range once out of 20 times :x

anyways, tested a bit with 40 body armor body hits 18 str 0 if with 95p xbow
wouldn't 1 hit most of the time at this range so yeah whoever whined about that probably had some speed bonus heirloomed xbow shoot him:

What's with that reticule? I have 160 in xbows and never have it that tight O.o

[Vexus]

No my "whining" is that the damage bonus from the heirlooms is pretty high.

If what you said is true that the guy with 30 str 10 IF and 60 armor got left with 15% life when hit in the body isn't that a bit too much damage considering it doesn't have any requirement apart of wpf?

[Xant]

Yeah whaat that reticule.

[Nemeth]

Fasaderp hax0r!

[Fasader]

it's a test mod, how else do you think a faceplate gives 60 head and 40 body armor? :X

[Armbrust_Schtze]

Olwen your rhimes suck ;D

..DON'T BUFF CROSSBOWS!

I thought you were trying to fool these fools but I didn't want to call it because I'm so nice.
