    Even though it cannot damage the tomb in galencourt directly it will effectively cuck the shit out of field engineers on defense and make that map on the attacking side more favorable.
    Not to mention on maps like darkforest and askandier it will provide the best anti catapult/ chokepoint experience with the weapon.
    It’s a support weapon and it does it’s job well.

    So glad this video came out to explain it. When I heard about the passive, I went around trying to shoot people through shields and props to no avail, there had to be something to justify the low ammo count and slow reload. I thought it was complete junk at first, maybe I should be using it more as a utility tool 🤔

    From my testing with the weapon this video is fully innacurate. The bolt penetrates destructable emplacements regardless of whether its destoryed or not. It can only penetrate 1 thing though, so with 2 back to back engineer walls it will stop on the second wall. It also does 0 damage to the structure itself which im sure has to be a bug, but im unable to damage anything other than players with it currently. Its best use right now is archer hunting, because they take cover behind the destructible fortifications to reload or ready another shot and in reality are still totally exposed

      Interesting, that means it is either fully broken or has been changed. The footage you see here (and all my information used in the video) is based on the version from the Montcrux playtest. Funny how they've actually managed to break it since that playtest!

    Playing engineer already felt like such a thankless job with how they're pretty much needed to win games but get fuck all points for it. Now they've gotta contend with archers breaking their stuff on top of it, as if they weren't miserable do deal with enough already.

    • @bionizard5480
      @bionizard5480 8 місяців тому

      That don’t exactly mean that field engines are useless per say, but it does mean you will need to have an ally run archer with War bow with the sole purpose of picking the siege bow users off.
      Not to mention when you combine an engineer with a siege crossbowman on points like Galencourt or Askandir of where engines will be prominent but the point itself needs to be destroyed physically.
      The engineer can tag team with the Seige crossbowman

  • @Drybread
    @Drybread 8 місяців тому +3

    I've been using this crossbow for a bit and I feel like it's decent but very gimmicky. On certain objectives it's very strong and it basically completely invalidates ballista's but for practically any other situation you're just better off using the warbow or the normal crossbow which is kinda lame imo. Archer is the class with the least amount of variety and I was hoping for something more substantial than this. On the upside though it does have very low drop so it's easier to hit long range shots and hitting a knight for 90/139 on a headshot does feel really nice.

    I don't know if it is possible to do it, but the creators should make the crossbow and also the bows, to be used as a melee weapon and be able to defend yourself with it even if they break it, many times you don't have time to take out your secondary weapon.

      No but will be very useful when the defenders try to four stack engineers, no more having to counter pick engineers just to get to the tomb when you just need two of these guys to destroy their walls from range,
      Not to mention the door objective prior too will be a lot easier to deal with
