Crossbow

Crossbow is an item class of two-handed martial ranged weapons that require strength and dexterity to equip. While it shares some similarities to a bow, crossbows fire bolts instantly and require reloading ammo to use and enhance skills.

Crossbow skills

Shot skills

Shot skills are crossbow-exclusive projectile attack skills that fire a clip of bolts. The bolts loaded are determined by Crossbow Ammunition Skills which modify the effects of the skill. Shot skills do not cost mana; instead, mana is spent when reloading bolts.

Ammunition skills

Main page: Ammunition

Ammunition skills (or "ammo") are crossbow-exclusive skills that can be used to load a crossbow with a clip of bolts. This replaces the Crossbow's basic attack with the skill indicated by the ammo. Loaded bolts can be fired a set number of times before reloading.

Basic Bolt is granted by default when equipping a Crossbow.

Attachment skills

Attachment skills are crossbow-exclusive skills that are specifically equipped into the off-hand equipment slot while wielding a crossbow. They visually attach to the underside of your crossbow, and only one attachment can be used at once. Equipped attachment skills add the skill to your skills menu, where they can be linked to support gems. They do not take up one of your default skill gem sockets. Attachment skills can be modified by support gems like any other skill gem.
