Honestly, without looms the arbalest is pretty much shit, even at a dedicated build. Hitting things consistently from difference is very difficult. As a gen 16 arbalest user, I've been playing without looms for about two gens now and it legitimately makes me rage. Miw nailed it though. As an arbalest user if you are singling out peasants you are doing it wrong anyway!
This community hurts my brains, a lot.

^it doesnt work like that.

It is how much PD over the bows requirement in native anyway
Since nobody pointed it out.

No, you are wrong. It's not just the PD over the bows requirement that gives you extra damage, it's all PD up to and including 4 above the requirement that gives you bonus damage.

6 PD and a PD 6 bow gives 6*14% bonus damage.
6 PD and a PD 4 bow gives 6*14% bonus damage.
6 PD and a PD 1 bow gives 5*14% bonus damage.

Got it?
This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.

Not with the current bow requirements, no.

If we ever get a 7 requirement bow though....

PD requires 14 wpf per point like throwing, so a 11 PD archer would need 154 wpf minimum so it could even make use of the PD... aka you're never going to be able to harness the power of 11 PD regardless of the requirements of a bow.
