I’m with you. Crossbows (especially the normal tier non-light crossbow) should either be much more uncommon or the weapon re-worked. With +15% to hit and good armor pen, it’s really frustrating that 4-5 crossbowmen will spawn at a time and annihilate your team. Solutions could be
1. Tone the weapon down.
2. Make them less common.
3. Or tweak the stats on the actual units.
They have such high initiative that it’s pretty hard to get the drop on them. Some of them even seem to have rotation, meaning they’ll just dance out of the way and shoot you from behind their buddy. Love the game, but it needs a dedicated balance patch.
