bow has more dps on light targets, but on heavy targets you'll need a crossbow to pierce the armor, in any case late game is about the same as you said

another problem: the crossbow uses strength, the bow uses agility. since most close quarter weapons also use strength, it costs you less, in the end, to use a crossbow and that makes the crossbow superior.
@hulmhochberg8129
@hulmhochberg8129 4 года назад
@@TheDunestyler not really, only when u make a strenght/meele focused character. Your strength value is a factor for meele dmg calculation and dex for range dmg. So if u want the most ranged dmg u have to skill dex and therefore use bows. It's like how rapier requires only 50 dex for a 100 dmg it's for characters that use bows/ranged primarily and have next to no strength so the dmg of the weapon is really high to make up for that. It's the same for crossbows with dex

As for damage. Bow is generally better as ALL ranged damage comes from Dex. Because you're pumping Dex for your bow anyway, you'll do damage on par or significantly more than even the best crossbow. But Crossbow is a fine secondary/first strike weapon for strength builds.

Damages comes not only from Dex but also skill level. And when you build your character for Strength because you prefer melee then Crossbow is better because you can at least draw a strong Crossbow then, while a bow would not even be equippable. Your damage won't be as good since you don't have Dex but this makes it possible to use range and melee when you're leveling up exclusively Str.

but you need strength for crossbows. If you're going to invest in dexterity anyway then the better deal is the bow since you don't have to invest in strength. Crossbow is nice as a secondary weapon for strength builds, but if you're going to play ranged the whole game then the bow would be better.

Dunno about Night of the Raven, but in Gothic2, crossbow is overall superior because of avaiability and dmg/dex requirement. 1) Kill everything except the wargs/lizards on your way to khorinis 2) Jump over the wall and talk to Lester. This should give you 2 lvls/20 LPs to work with 3) Invest at least 15 LPs into dex. Leave khorinis out of the back gate, turn left, avoid the mobs and go the way up, do a sharp right turn and get the 40/25 x-bow at the stump 4) You will now 1shot scavengers/molerats/wolfs/rats/goblins and 2shot field reavers/lurkers/lizards 5) 1shot your way back down to khorinis and up the way from khorinis to the bar on the way to onars farm, and take the 2nd left turn past the the hunter's camp, and 1shot your way following this path (careful to avoid the stone golem) and pick up the 55/40 crossbow hidden near the bridge 6) With the xp you have attained, you kill your way towards onar's farm and get 30 or more dex from Torlof for your new weapon. 6) Pick up the 15 dex amulet if you chose militia/paladin after talking to Lord Hagen and beat down Udar in the Castle in Mine Valley for his 85/70 crossbow. You now have the 2nd strongest crossbow at the start of 2nd chapter, and it is as strong as the strongest bow. 7) If you make sure to train to 100 dex @ Diego in chapter 3 and then trink and brew every dex potion, pray for your 22dex as pala etc., you will 1shot Lizardmen in chapter 4 and orc elites in chapter 5/6. Bows cant compete with that, because if you 1shot them with an x-bow but not a bow, the bow will require longer, negating the little speed advantage it has. Weapon skill is not as important, as you can get very close and be guaranteed to hit almost. I also don't train x-bows further than 59%, because the knee bending thing can be problematic when firing from a ledge or similar. All of that said, though I knew about the bows superior drawing speed, I didn't know about the small firing speed advantage of the bow in lower levels, much less the catch up at master level. I was under the impression of equal firing speed. Nice video!

@Huk256
@Huk256 4 года назад
This was VERY useful, thank you :) For those who still don't get it (and given the number of comments, it seems to be a lot of people), let me try that again: - bow => for people preferring dex over str, and fighting with Rapier/Masters Sword/Betty over everything else - crossbow => for people preferring str over dex, and fighting with heavy 1h or 2h weapons It's simple as that. Basing crossbows on str was a good balancing act NOTR (one of the few things that made the game easier for some builds). Now, I can already see someone saying, 'but it's illogical to go with str when bows are so powerful' - maybe, but, believe it or not, some people prefer melee combat over ranged combat because it's more exciting and fun! I have played through the vanilla Gothic 2 a good 30 times, then the same number through NOTR, and I NEVER used a dex based character - it was ALWAYS strength. Only recently, I tried the dex based hunter with bow and Masters Sword and... it was interesting - mowing down orcs with your bow and all. But it was also... BOOORING! That's because, with melee combat, you actually have to have skills as the player to win a battle, while with range combat, your character does all the work. All you do is pick a target, and press forward and watch him fire, and fire, and fire... BOOOOORING! Mage has a similar problem for me - once you have magic that can quickly kill most orcs, you just cast, cast and cast... IMHO the melee combat in Gothic is simply funnier to play. And when you go with melee, you usually go with strength, ergo, you want to have crossbow as your backup (even with pure STR character, you will have 40-60 dex anyway). It's not about logic, it's about fun, and whatever works for you.

bow and crossbow damage depends on dexterity. the more dex u have, the more dmg u do. Its not weapon dmg only. That means the bow is way better than the crossbow because of, bows need dex to wear and crossbow need´s strenght. U cannot have alot of dex and alot of str too in Gothic 2. U have to decide atleast, melee or range, as a range character u wont take down the late game part with a crossbow. It is possible, but not for the average player, and its very hard. Crossbow just doesnt scale that much in the late Game. -- sorry not the best english

In Gothic 1 i found myself using the Bow much more that the crossbow. While in G2 the crossbow as a clear winner for me. I think(tho im not 100% sure on this) but i think that the crossbow damage would also scale up with your STR and not just your DEX like the bow did. So it didnt really matter to me much how many bolts i could fire per sec considering that most enemies would die in 2 shots with how high my stats were.

@vojtechlansky86 Год назад
Well.. crossbows have higher damage, but you need to max strenght to use them... but if you max strenght you will dont have enough points for dexterity so your shots will be weaker/less acurate(depends on which gothic you play) - Me for example playing a mod Archolos for G2 currently.. and I decided to max dexterity. I have crossbows in my inventory that are stronger than my bow and if I could I would equip them.. but I cannot. Their strenght requirments are insane for me. So I view bow as a primary weapon if you want to play ranged specialist. And a Crossbow more like a Secondary weapon when you play classic melle fighter(As prooved many times since this was my most played character.. with absolutelly no dexterity I could do decent damage still)

If you're playing a classic Paladin or a classic Dragon Slayer you'll need far more strength, which would enable you to use the most powerful crossbows. Not only does this apply to the endgame, but also midgame: If you're pushing for 2hand swords with high strength, you'll quickly be able to use the regular crossbow while the really good bows acquire too much dexterity until you take all the potions and stone tables.

@Blacknarock

Yeah but even if u get less shoots with with crossbow. The crossbow overall has more DMG. At maxt level with the best crossbow u need 2 shoots for an normal orc warrios while with the bow you need 3. So there is that. That's alot of debating on who's better. Overall both are. There advantage and disadvantages. Firs one is like you said the bow is overall faster and is easy to scale since it uses dex. The crossbow needs str to equip but uses dex as DMG scaling. So you have to invest more in them and that's why the crossbow have much more DMG then the bow cuz the developers realized you can't max put in str and dex in the same time. So they have the crossbow more DMG with a little drawback while the bow doesn't have as much DMG as a crossbow but is much faster. Both are good and both are worth trying and playing with since is very fun. Just a disclaimer for those who play gothic one idk about 2. I use in gothic 1 and 2 an additional extension on steam where you press Z and accelerates the game 3 times or x 3 speed. That makes the walk of you and any action of any npc in the world go x3 time speed . Works in combat but is risky since you can die faster. The problem comes with the crossbow. If you use the same acceleration program and press Z to speed up time then the crossbow won't shoot. It will get stuck and you won't be able to shoot. Only the bow works. This is not a major problem if you don't use x3 speed time acceleration like me. That mode helps you clear the game faster and more smooth.

@ВладиславШаклеин-ч7м
As much as the effort is appreciated... What's the point of the speed comparison in ranged combat? Ranged damage is Weapon Damage+DEX, regardless of the weapon type, and you need a sh*t load of STR to equip a good crossbow. Looking at my only attempt at playing archer in G2NotR (some min-maxing, but pretty far from going all-dex, or hitting every civilian in the face for exp) I was at 160+240, while having a meager 65 STR. So, basically to surpass it with the best crossbow I'd have to acquire 85 more STR. Basically... What's the point of wasting your LPs on STR, even if you are to acquire them, when you can spend them on something more useful? Speed is meaningless if your damage is enough for two-shotting the Orcs (and one-shotting Lizardmen for the matter of being Dragon Hunter), IMO.

Bow is dexterity, thus you must lvl it up quite a lot(if i remember correctly it's way more than 200 dexterity, maybe more than 250 to use best bow in the game+more damage). It's better for a thief\agility character(but melee weapons that use dexterity kinda suck and they scarce). But crossbows use strength stat for damage and weapon requirements, thus it's a must for melee\warrior character. Personally i prefer crossbows, they do less damage than bows and there are much less variety over bows(you will use like 2 crossbows first half of the game versus 4-5 bows or so) but they use strength so you can use one-handed or two-handed weapon as main weapon and use crossbow to kill 1-2 enemy before they reach you. Also they are good to kill mages and run-aways npc.

the time you pull off your range weapon matters the most,you may not be able to kill someone with a crossbow if he's near you and he dies after 2 shots which will not happen with a bow,so yea bow is the winner

Are you dumb? With a reanged weapon draw time conuts the least it's pre meditated you attack the enemy first... also crossbows deal more damage to requirement +30 more......

I never seen much point in crossbows in this game. They require strenght to wield but still do demage based on dexterity. So in order to do big demage with them you need both high strenght and dexterity. With NotR it's preety much impossible without going out of your way to max out character and doing stuff like beating up every NPC for experience. Alsways prefered to just use bow and max out dexterity or max out strenght and only use swords never caring about crossbows.

But then you want some melee and that is based on strength... Too bad that devs did not make weapon damage based on weapon attribute :/

Rapier is dex based as far as I remember, but yeah, no mid or late game dexterity melee weapons. As for weapon damage types (slashing, piercing, crushing) that would've been cool but was probably too hard to implement and not essential.

@@davorbrijacak there is the master sword which is pretty brutal for its requirements aswell just as good of a ratio as the rapier but higher (its 120 for 60) and ususally if you go for dex builds you want to pick up the claw of beliar as your weapon anyway because the bonus damage (also appearing when enemies block attacks) beats the fact that you actually didnt skill a lot of strenght (at least thats the way i always went and it worked smooth).

I just finished G2 Gold again and I think comparison of these two are pointless. Crossbows require Strength and Bows Dexterity. Either you play a Strength oriented warrior and use crossbows as secondary weapon or you use one of those few swords which have Dexterity requirement because you mainly want to use archer oriented character. You don't get enough points to train up both Strength and Dexterity (maybe in original G2 but not in the expansion). Dexterity is added to your range attacks (both crossbows and bow) and Strength is added to you melee attacks (both Dexterity and Strength swords). In other words if you want to use crossbows you need to train Strength just to equip those and will lack extra ranged damage from your low Dexterity but will be able to use better melee weapons with your Strength added as extra damage. Bows have Dexterity requirement which is also added as an extra ranged damage but you will be able to use only Dexterity swords which are not as strong as Strength swords and will also lack enough extra damage from your low Strength stat.

bow is much faster, crossbow have much more damage, but bow is definitely faster. and every blow stun enemies for a milisec so it better to use even with less damage

There are a few factors that make bows superior to crossbows aside from the ones you have already mentioned. Firstly, tablets give 30 points in bows, but only 20 in crossbows. Secondly, bow trainers are much more accessible. Wolf will train you up to 90 from chapter 1 onwards for free and Bartok allows you to learn the basics early on; crossbows only have Dragomir whose service you unlock relatively late and who only goes up to 70 - a nightmare you insist on reaching 100% with tablets. It is even worse in the main game where Dragomir only teaches up to 60 and there are no tablets at all. Bows are objectively superior (although I wouldn't hold it against anyone doing crossbows for flavor).
