General / Re: Requesting crossbow build from Wildan

This is a really cool build, so thanks Wildan. But how is it affected by the Bowyer feat?

It's just a direct upgrade to Critical Power. Extra 90% critical damage on all crossbows. If you are using the build described here I would replace Pack Rathound with it, which should be soon enough for you to make use of it before the Institute/DC.

I'll take the opportunity to say once again that I love where crossbows are at the moment. I think they're in the sweet spot of game balance that all of the weapon classes ought to occupy.

I agree. I am on my fourth playthrough, and I find crossbows to be very versatile. Not as much raw firepower as guns, but more stun and other effects. And stun is so powerful in Underrail.

I have to echo the others who say that crossbows are in a very good place right now. Their balance serves as an example for the other builds.

These portraits are fantastic. Really fills in the gaps with female portraits.

Made 25 custom portraits (12 for female, 13 for male). Link.
If someone knows good artists, concepts of which could fit Underrail setting, it will be highly appreciated (send a PM).

Examples:

Is there a way to get an updated link for these portraits?

The equipment should consist of:
1 damage dealer crossbow - Scoped (anatomically-aware) Super Zephyr Crossbow. Tornado is stronger but has fewer, weaker criticals, a 2% CtH penalty and also important - 15% instead of 10% move and shoot penalty. Ideally you'll be shooting first and then moving but now and then you won't be able to do so because sometimes you'll have to hide behind a corner to lure the enemy in your trap, and when he steps on it he'll be rooted and you likely won't see him unless you step out from cover again. Also on some rare occasion a bug happens where the enemies can fire at you but you can't fire back unless you move. This problem is not special to crossbows and can happen with any ranged weapon.
1 special bolt spammer crossbow - Scoped (anatomically-aware) Pneumatic Cyclone Crossbow. I'll get more to it later.
