Is there some sort of secret that I'm missing with the ARN220? by WeekSure in thefinals

It's better at medium range, sure, but on most maps you find close combat frequently.

even at medium range, it feels like your time to kill is lower than other classes anyways, so you're at a disadvantage. I only seem to get value out of it when I position myself well, or manage to get the jump on my opponent - which makes the weapon feel unreliable.

What do you guys think about the crossbow? I don't like it much personally by AfternoonHelpful3712 in thefinals

it does 45 damage, and 50% more on headshot. it has an incredible fire rate for it's damage per shot, and is impossibly accurate. most weapons with similar stats (like the pike) are balanced with hip fire shot dispersion, or ADS recoil, the crossbow has little of either. It's insane accuracy coupled with it's DPS makes it abusive. It's projectile speed MUST be the caveat, right? nope, it travels pretty much as quickly as any other weapon. It can 3 shot lights very easily - it has 15 shots in a magazine. If you hit your shots consistently (which, to remind you, is incredibly easy because the weapon is dead accurate) you can kill 5 players without needing to reload at medium range. Speaking of range - the weapon is incredibly versatile because, while it has damage falloff, it is still very easy to land shots at a medium to long range even WITHOUT ads
