What's more, each crossbow has it's own parameters like Ammunition, Reload time, Range or Spread. Here all crossbows are divided into 4 main types: semi-automatic, fully automatic, sniper and shotgun-like crossbows. This mod doesn't just buff crossbow damage, it changes crossbow mechanics entirely. Almost all crossbows were named just 'Crossbow' and the only things they had different were look and damage multipiller. It's so under-powered that only with 'cat eyes' mutation (damage buff like 5x, knockdown, piercing and first shot taking 15% of victim's HP) it could actually kill something. Crossbow in the base game is used almost only to shoot down flying or diving monsters (and in two quests). This mod aims to completly redesign crossbow combat in The Witcher 3. I don't know how it would behave on other game versions, but I'm almost sure, that it won't work (or lack some features) without any of mentioned DLCs. It's written for 1.31 GOTY version of the game. DLC (the one that brought 3 new crossbows into game), one Perk and Mutation from Blood and Wine DLC. This mod uses or changes crossbow files, textures and models from Blood and Wine DLC and 13.
