A crossbow is a bow that has been mounted on a stock and fitted with a mechanical device to hold the bow string. Crossbows offer advantages over regular bows by allowing archers to release a greater draw force and by allowing the crossbow to stay loaded for an indefinite period of time. These advantages are offset by the increased weight and slower rate of fire of the crossbow.
This skill covers all forms of combat with mechanical bows (i.e. crossbows). Increasing the Archery: Crossbow skill raises the chance to hit an opponent while shooting a crossbow-type weapon. __NOTOC__
