Hey everyoneee. I just started a new crossbowman in Khaini. I just wanted your opinion on which skill is better in the long run? Arrow Blow or Double shot? Thanks for the help in advance. - Zain EDIT: [April 22nd , 5:47PM EST] Thanks all. I've got my answer. Double shot will be used. Follow "Ishinzol" 's link

Double shot since you will have soul arrow.

Aubb said: "Double shot since you will have soul arrow." Arrow Blow since you will have soul arrow. wth kind of logic is that?

Is double shot stronger?

Double Shot so you have 2x the chance of a critical hit

Double shot since theres a better chance of hitting crit with 2 arrows instead of just one. And soul arrow saves you arrows so you don't have to worry about the wasting arrows thing. Also the recent patch made it so the diamond arrows could work with soul arrow. In conclusion 2 arrows are better than one.

arrow blow will KB more often. Snipe replaces both. It doesn't really matter, but double shot and arrow blow are pretty much the same. It's all a matter of preference. If you do arrow blow, you'll have 1 more point to put into something, but it's only one. 1 arrow blow is stronger than 1 double shot, according to my in game trials. I think you should go with the one that you have more fun with.

ds has more dpm, but ab has a better chance of kb. most go ds, but you cant really go wrong with ab.

double shot for damage. ab for slightly less damage but much better KB and it makes you look strong.

Honestly, with the whole probability thing, it's equal. =.= People just like to think it's better chances. Let's see: Arrow blow will give you 50% chance of hitting a full crit. Double shot will give you 50% chance of hitting half of a crit. (1 out of 2.) Double shot will give you 25% chance of hitting a full crit. (2 out of 2.) Your choice. The point is that you have a fallback, as it's better to get 1 out of 2 crits on double shot, rather than no crit with arrow blow.
