Hi I'm pretty new to the game and I'm currently a crossbowman. I've noticed that other classes can inflict wayy more damage than bowmans even at lower levels than I can. I mean I can hit two upper 500s if i am lucky with with double shot and both are critical while I see Arans and mages inflict that much damage easily. My level progression is my strength matches my lvl and everything else into dex. Am I do something wrong or are bowmen just really this weak?

It's at 19 right now like the guide on this forum said and I still hit pretty low compared to other classes.

I just made this xbowman after getting my DK to level 100, and I have to say my spearman was doing more damage...

Don't forget booster. Booster makes the xBowman destroy. Good dmg x Good speed = Complete win.

Even weaker than corsairs at lower levels? No way.

I never found my bowman weak at any point of time. I don't know what you think high damage should be.

Other people you see dealing much more damage than you are funded, and you're paranoing about it... it's not that bad... people with about the same funding should hit about the same at that level...

I think it's just your equips. I was doing 1.5k with 1 arrow at level 30 and I wasn't strless, nor did I have a good bow. You should be stronger than some classes like mages.

1.5k with one arrow at lvl 30? I find that hard to believe. OT: Yeah you'll feel a little bit weak at the start but don't worry later they will beg for your SE harhar

My equips are better than you think. We're talking about critical hits, right?
