Nerf Crossbow

[Lord_Neko_]

People complained about the gold Barrett being a 1 shot weapon, and that had a poison effect to help it kill.
It is ridiculous the basic crossbow can 1-shot someone in 3 pieces of Tier 3 armor with full health.
The damage needs to be reduced.

Yes, but the range sould then be bufed

It's not physically possible to one shot someone in almost full riot with a crossbow as it only does 11.0 damage also the 50. cal is a lot more dangerous as it deals 15.0 points of damage, isn't affected by gravity (Which the crossbow is) and it has ten shots.

I personally wouldn't agree on a nerf for the crossbow as it's easy to miss with it and it's not too useful at long-range.

Lol when I saw the title I thought it was about the toy nerf gun. But the crossbow is only good for non pvp. Its not all that great in pvp.

Its only good if you want to kill zombies with no ammo loss

Did you know that back in 1.8, if you killed a walker or player with a crossbow, you wouldn't get the arrow back? There was and upside however, because arrows would tear right threw zombies. If you timed it right, you could kill up to 5 walkers at once. I kinda liked more it when that was the case, but the crossbow now gets the job done. I prefer the unscoped M14 for killing zombies more now.
That was kinda irrelevant, But what I think that crossbow should get is the ability to kill a bunch of walkers at once.

Some sort of AOE?

I like the crossbow.
But when I read the title this is the first thing that comes to mind:

 

[olothus]

you might not know, but the crossbow was the first and original armor piercing weapon....that is part of the reason they were so popular before the invention of firearms....and we are talking platemail not light riot armor....

I have personally been 1-shot with the crossbow multiple times, in riot armor, from several ranges.
These instances are all from Hell Night.

I mean I'm a very, very good shot at it on pvp and get loads of kills with it, so I myself wouldn't call it useless in pvp. The most useful trick is to know when to take the right shot. But anyway guys the Stryker 380 crossbow, the one we have on the server can pierce through riot gear in real life (it's been tested on riot gear) and has some pretty unbelievable power and can go through a lot of really strong things. So in my opinion I say we don't nert it.

Buff it,buff it,buff it
