ADD POWER DRAW TO XBOWS ASWELL.

This is actually a very good idea. Dont just read over that capslock comment and hate it, its a good thing. Why?

1. Instead of Power Strike you can invest in Power Draw
2. Power Draw increases dmg by 14% per level which is awesome for Xbows (For Arbalest + Steel Bolts, both +3 this would almost double the damage with 5PD)
3. You dont have points to invest in Power Strike - so dont invest points in melee wpf - more points in xbow
4. With 5 Power Draw you'll oneshot everybody with an arbalest or heavy xbow

It makes no sense, PD increases damage

A bolt is set in the same fixed location every time, there is nothing that can be done to increase the velocity of the bolt vs a bow where we can assume they "draw" the string further back to increase tension and as a result damage.

irl something shorted on the shuttle and laika overheated and died within a few hours of liftoff and for a brief while one could look up to the stars and see a light shooting across the sky that was actually a warm dog corpse slingshoting about the earth at thousands of miles per hour which was arguably humanity's greatest achievement so far

I know it makes no sense, but the constant crying to add PD to xbows also makes no sense and I just wanted to show people what would be the result of it.

But at the moment PD is useless for xbow? It is just a suggestion?

yes PD is useless for crossbow, and all your armor weight reduce your proficiency in crossbow, that's all.

A lot of people in the NA community know that Dach rages and in the process of his uncontrollable rage, he tends to kick people.

You've been warned! :twisted:

Too many spoilers to see what's going on (they end up getting smushed against the right wall of the screen), but you can open spoiler bombs very easy by just hitting "tab, enter, tab enter, etc"
