[@noisynixx]

You can tell he's played with the crossbows a lot. I agree with basically everything here. The poison crossbow needs a buff really badly.

[@4FSGaming]

There are so many things they could do to make it interesting, it is a really cool weapon in concept only.

[@noisynixx]

@@4FSGaming I know right? Make a cloud on impact, or simply allowing the hand crossbow to swap to it as a secondary. My friend even suggested making it tipped bolts instead of impact. It would be less effective against immolators, but at the very least you could retrieve the bolts. Also, every kill with the handbow feels amazing. I can't get enough of it.

[@Tri-Technology]

@@4FSGaming Yeah but in this video it's a bit underrated, because if someone gets shot by a rifle and is hiding to heal up you can stop the healing process with that poison bolt. Also you can block entrances with the poison cloud a bit. But for sure it needs a buff at least when you hit the chest. I would like the idea that a poison bee is in the ampoule so with the first impact it deals like 40 damage and you are poisoned an the bee deals damage (like a hive bee) in your body until you pluck it out with holding F for some 2 seconds.

[@4FSGaming]

@@Tri-Technology There is no poison cloud, if you don't hit it leaves no residual effect

[@Tri-Technology]

@@4FSGaming Oh I thought it had the lasting effect the last time I played it but maybe I am wrong because it's a long time ago. But would be really nice to have that with the "you can't heal while poisoned - mechanic"

[@ChanceCravesDeath]

honestly i'm ashamed in you. you didn't mention the top tier explosive crossbow strategy of raining down mortars from outside the compound. yeah, it never works for me, BUT IT COULD ONE DAY.

[@4FSGaming]

I do wonder if you spawn with a team of three and and start lobbing shots over towards the next spawn, eventually you'll get lucky right?

[@PanzerIV88]

Well it's something I like to do and never saw anybody do before, to spend 1-2 ammo super far to confuse people. I will laugh if someday it register a hit, even if it's a grunt hehe.

[@alekryde]

@@4FSGaming You totally can. Or at least, you could! During pre-release my friend and I sat at our spawn and began bombarding the closest clue to our spawn. Got hunter kills

[@captainpancakes1893]

The morter strategy is effective in 2 situations. 1- it is great at causing confusion, as getting shelled by this thing is almost non existent in most games. 2- if you can guess the spread and range when mortaring, say on the other side of a fence or a barn. I haven't killed anyone with it yet but have hit someone and caused several barrel explosions.

[@isakjones5836]

Reminds me of when I used to play COD. At the start of every match I would huck a Tomahawk at the enemies spawn and occasionally get a Kill

[@SlothSkeleton]

The shotbolt is also the only crossbow that can wallbang, though it is only as effective as a shotgun when it comes to penetration.

[@CrimsonXenoProduct]

I thought I shot through a dog cage the other day but wasn't sure, this enforces the idea, thanks

[@badger9655]

You are really amazing with all of your hunt video’s. They have really helped me improve my game. 10/10.

[@4FSGaming]

Glad you like them!

[@connorbeauman3077]

You forgot to include that youre gonna feel like Darryl Dixon throughout the entire game

[@sabiant.lawson2909]

I kinda fiting because the game is like the walking dead

[@crazylasagna3576]

One thing to note with the crossbow: point blank limb shots won’t instakill but will cause hit hunters to bleed out extremely quickly (2-3 seconds)

[@wotwott2319]

the best crossbow strat is when you're in a trio and, you and one of your teammates have the explosive bolt while the other one scouts for enemies and send you coordinates for artillery fire.

[@schoenperkins8210]

That would be terrifying if we ever get fragbows

[@wotwott2319]

@@schoenperkins8210 technically the shotbolt acts like a fragbolt but yea.

[@wimbusbert1249]

This video has aged pretty well despite all the updates to the game last year. Poison bolts being a swappable ammo has pretty much escalated them from meme to something I bring ever time I use the Hand Crossbow. They are simply the single best way to kill immolators and armored, offer excellent area denial for windows and tight corridors, and, most importantly, give you an easy way to dispatch crows. All of that's not mention shooting downed enemies to ensure they can't get be revived without instantly dying again (assuming they didn't bring an antidote shot, of course). By themself, I would never bring poison bolts. As swappable ammo? The amount of tactical advantages it brings is huge.

[@casedistorted]

I finally got back into Hunt since before Launch and was just starting to use crossbows and wondering about each one. Perfect timing on this video 👍

[@4FSGaming]

Glad I could help!

[@lokowoko360]

i've been looking for some solid crossbow info, thanks dude

[@4FSGaming]

Glad I could help

[@downunderdudes5227]

How serendipitous. Great breakdown. :)

[@Small_Panda]

Yeah seems weird that the poison crossbow is just trash, if it had an aoe or a lingering cloud than maybe it could useful. Also with it taking up a medium slot it's just unreasonable to be that bad. I'm just unsure how they can change it. I feel making it 1 shot to body is a bit op since range doesn't matter on the weapon besides headshots, so I feel making it have some lingering cloud or a mini hive effect is about all that it could be useful for. So make it a tool of area denial and able to flush players out by shooting mini hives into buildings?

[@jamesb3497]

Alternatively, make it's ammo retrievable.

[@Tri-Technology]

@@jamesb3497 No that doesn't make sense because the glass of the bolt breaks.

[@bakuwinthro8926]

Also if someone has an antidote shot it completely invalidates the weapon in a PvP situation. This is the only weapon that someone can be totally immune to. I mean as cool as it is to be able to use a poisonous bolt, poison is probably the least effective status condition in the game despite being the 2nd most annoying if you're affected. It's a sad weapon and needs some love.

[@csabawars]

What if. We give it a lingering aoe efect. And make it retriable by alloving us to get back the broken glass arrow (maybe give it a tip where we see the liquid dripping) and with weapon mode(x) we can swap betwen aoe or broken bolt. That way when you hit somebody we can add poison/bleed efect to the arrow and they need to remove the arrow to stop the poison efect. (I mean the poison cloud is stationary but who get shot are damage overtime until it removed)

[@Small_Panda]

@@csabawars I honestly don't have a issue with them being unretrievable, they just need to have more of an impact as it's strictly worse than the regular bolt does less damage can't 1 shot has a ingame consumable that means it actively does nothing. Plus poison in of it self does virtually nothing, like yeah the person can't heal for like 1 minute or if you hit them with a regular bolt they could be dead. At the very least maimed and bleeding which if you keep on them they will just die from unlike poison. So they don't currently have alternating ammo other than the lemat so it might not be a hard add for what you want I just don't think it's necessary. If they made it more for area control, similar to the poison bomb grenade.

[@adaug27]

Good on you man for providing that discount link for those who havent yet bought the game. Last game I played I got killed by a crossbow, funny enough. Your content keeps getting better and better, keep it up.

[@speedfreak0023]

Love these videos. very good work. keep em coming.

[@4FSGaming]

Thanks, will do!

[@jolleypc]

Just getting into the game. Great info here. Thanks

[@xXAlchemist]

Great video! I love playing with the crossbow and I'm glad I now know the specifics! P.s. youu forgot to mention you can wallbang with the shotbolt

[@ashneale8322]

Hi 4FS, love your videos! They're really helpful and full of useful information! Keep up the great work! Just a quick one, I've only recently got into Hunt myself and I'm loving it! I've recently started using the crossbow and I'm falling in love with it (which is how I found this video) and I was going to suggest possibly making an updated crossbow video due to the ammo and variant changes in 1.5? Just an idea, love your stuff and looking forward to more! Thanks! :D

[@PanzerIV88]

Love ur videos as always, super informative without being too long. Even with 700H+ I still learn little things here and there :) Poison crossbow being the worst weapon ever, like its hard to be more useless than precision nagant lol, I really dunno why Crytek doesn't notice it when everybody knows it's crap. It shouldn't be hard to buff it in an interesting way such as the bee inside the glass and/or a smoke cloud like the poison gas grenade but that wouldn't last as long since u carry more ammo. Now damage-wise it's a joke, and for area denial it's also 0% useful and as if it wasn't bad already, it's a medium slot lol.

[@yeright1977]

Love pairing the fearsome hand crossbow with a mosin.

[@konfaxo]

Thx man, i learned a lot from your video's 👍👍👍😁

[@dave6653]

Great video! Thanks for the information. I still have trouble seeing why the shortbolt is better than the regular crossbow-- if regular crossbow can one shot but is also silent with bolt retrievability, and even sometimes on free hunters.

[@Tri-Technology]

shotbolt can wallbang and has no damage drop off so it can one shot kill at any distance.

[@PizzasAreForMe]

was waiting for this 😊😍

[@4FSGaming]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@blackknightz5036]

Shotbolt+uppercut is an extremely strong loadout if you're experienced with the shotbolt,why? the uppercut give you the range that the shotbolt lack while the shotbolt can rival against shotgun as long as you hit your shot due to your shot having better kill consistency than shotgun

[@Shaggy87781]

i really like dolch/bornheim with any of the crossbows, great followup at mid ranges. explosive weakening often allows for 1 or 2 shots quickly.

[@realisNeo]

The first kill I did with any version of a crossbow was with a Poison Handcrossbow which I took off a recently deceased. It was within my first three days of playing and I didn‘t achieve a Xbow kill afterwards for nearly 3 months I think. But that one kill was really memorable xD

[@kaoticspaz6847]

I love the explosive crossbow. It is weird and I never run it solo, but it’s utility is there, it really slams campers, is someone is hiding in a building if you tag them with it usually they panic and go to heal and that gives you your chance to breach into the building

[@AlleroseActual]

Love the shotbolt. The sweet sweet wall bangs.

[@justsomesaltyboi8716]

you forgot one key fact, the shotbolt upon contact of a fence/wooden wall, will shoot through the wooden wall/fence but the shell is the only thing that shoots through, not the bolt, so if there is someone hiding behind the wooden cover, you shoot where they stand, one shot wallbang.

[@babakgeblee3343]

Info not mentioned in video : you CAN wall bang with shotbolt as it explodes from impact point and pellets go through from there, like a shotgun

[@Heinskitz]

As I discovered recently, the shotbolt is also like the nitro as it can kill multiple hunters in a single shot. I've double tapped some unfortunate teams who've aligned themselves nicely for the buckshot to hit hunters behind the initial target.

[@phosphor112]

You mentioned that explo crossbow works as a diversion, but so does the shot bolt. Sounds a lot like a Romero. I’ve used it that way multiple times.

[@avielp]

I rarely play Hunt anymore but your videos are amazing

[@rolling.reggie]

watching all these vids and LOVING them. Where do weapons like the Springfield lie in your reviews? Did not see in all 3 rifles reviews. Thanks!

[@4FSGaming]

Springfield and Martini Henry are recent additions to the game, which is why they did not appear in the Rifle video.

[@rolling.reggie]

4FS Gaming awesome thanks!

[@MunchyHam]

I always seem to do really well with the hand crossbow :)

[@4FSGaming]

It's severely underrated

[@cloveruty]

One note about the Crossbow Shotbolt: Even though it is not silent, the noise that is made originates from the point of impact from the bolt, NOT from the location it was shot from. So, people will hear the shot, but if they are trying to spot your location, the noise made by the Shotbolt will not give them any help and may even be able to confuse them of your location, making it even more OP.

[@foxy_miki9978]

Everything said in this video I 100% agreed with. As some one that loves using the crossbow a lot.

[@DiesNahts6969]

You can also oneshot immolators with the normal crossbow when close enough (to the head and he will explode after dying)

[@landsavage]

I came here to find additional ways to use the poison crossbow, finding only the same negatives pointed out. I would like to point out some positives that I have found, playing with a 50 some prestige in random Q. Poison Xbow 1 shots Immo's as stated Also 1 shots armored If you directly hit a crow or duck the whole flock will die instantly and silently That is what I have found so far, but other than that, its basically a pve xbow. I have had some good runs with poison xbow and quartermaster running a Vetterlli (for awesome versatility in damage, range, ammo count, and ROF for a bolt) and a derringer (which is basically a 4-shot Bornheim for $30 bucks)

[@7BJDX]

congrats on making it as an affiliate!

[@drparadox9163]

You forgot one serious advantage of the shotbolt. It has some major wallbang potential, as it fires the shotgun blast through wooden walls on point of impact/direction.

[@XxgoodbudsxX]

He was literally doing that at the end of the video

[@kisbiflos]

Poison crossbow could get either 140-ish dmg on all ranges on entire body (no limb penalty) or get a separate poison effect that disables sprint or just simply last 3 times longer than the poison that monsters cause. I think we will get something like the latter since they have "different levels of poison status" on the roadmap.

[@samomico9536]

I found that with the smaller crossbow the aim is different, the shot doesn’t go through the middle of the 3 prongs but instead it’s in the middle of the 2 side prongs. I played it all day yesterday and aiming through the middle of the triangle (the empty space between the 3 prongs)from 10 yards the bolt doesn’t land there but instead it lands in the center of the 2 side prongs.

[@halospencer1373]

“Maybe one day you will be able to change crossbow ammo on the fly” if only he knew about the monstrosity that is shot bolt and explosive bolt combined on the same bow.

[@Malgana]

I feel like they should buff bolt seer to allow you to pick up your bolts through dark sight.

[@murigrim]

The hand crossbow poison is actually extremely useful. best way to remove crows quietly, Also the Crossbow Shotbolt has penetration. shoot a wooden wall someone is hiding behind and the pellet will detonate and the shells will hit what is on the other side.

[@4FSGaming]

The recent rework to the hand crossbow certainly elevates it, especially as you can now carry normal ammo as well.

[@ammolator]

Yo congrats on getting affiliated!

[@Kelros1428697]

Found a shotbolt on a hunter once upon a time then proceeded to dominate the entire server. Now i am a proud crossbow main

[@JohnSmith-fu2kz]

My cousin and I use poison crossbow with combat ax, it is hilarious!

[@heathgolik1877]

The poison crossbow is okay. I use it with poison bombs an antidote if your trying to get the hive bomb fast. I use both on buthcer an assassin to get higher point to get the hive bomb.

[@ryansullivan4035]

I LOVE THESE VIDEOS

[@4FSGaming]

Cheers!

[@illumin4t152]

i know i know old video, but you forgot to mention that you can wall bang with the shotgun crossbow, there are a lot of people which got surprised by that

[@PSPbrtag]

There's something i've always wanted to know about the shotbolt that you didn't address in the video. If i hit the bolt in the ground short of the enemy player, it's like firing with a shotgun at him, right? But is the shot aimed towards his feet or do they go up? Would this be in any way a valuable strategy?

[@vampiratefop5587]

With the shotbolt, a miss is a miss. It doesn't have an area of effect where it explodes; the shell only fires straight (with a cone spread, because shotgun) in the direction the bolt is facing.

[@TheClownesque]

A point about compact crossbow melee: it deals more damage than pistol whipping, so I'd argue that "poor melee" is an exaggeration. It has more damage and higher speed than any small weapon, and is much more stamina efficient than a large weapon. Crucially, you can kill a grunt with two head punches (small weapons take 3, other mediums are less stamina efficient and slower), costing you less than half as much stamina as you'd've used with a long weapon. It's mostly a moot point since knives are mandatory, but if I have a compact crossbow on me, I whip it out over a rifle for killing immolators.

[@doritoman2593]

Note: It is possible to not one shot hunters with the Crossbow Shotbolt if the hit is too off-center/too on the edge of a hunter's hitbox.. This is because a hit that is very off-center may cause a significant amount of pellets to fly past the hunter, resulting in not enough landing and the hunter surviving.

[@tw-ij3kc]

The poison crossbow should be a mini but have the same stats

[@Andy-iq6rk]

In my opinion the work you gotta put in together with a basically mandatory perk, both of these things only benefitting the crossbows, makes it less worth than a rifle that gives wider coverage and the time put into one can translate to other weapons better.

[@PandemicGameplay]

That's absolutely hilarious, didn't realize how useless the poison one was

[@Forewarned76]

I have an idea for the bolt seer trait, but couldn't you use it to mark other hunters and then kill shot then with a Sparks

[@DiesNahts6969]

I used the poison crossbow yesterday against the assasin and was like "huh that damage is quite neat". Then i stuck him with a sticky with did 80% of his health and was like yeah there is no reason for that crossbow to exist

[@robthedestroyerjr]

Modern day crossbow poison is pretty decent not because of the poison itself but more the fact that you can have 2 ammo types other words I can have poison for area denial because of the new poison gas that comes out and then use the normal bolts for the obvious reason of damage and bleed

[@shamkraffl6050]

At night, i was constantly getting hit by a player hiding very well, chopping off 1/3 hp each hit. I managed to find him and blast him off with a gun. If i hadn't found him, i would have either died or lost all my freaking med kits.

[@Friday_WasTaken]

love the crosbow, but something i have never figured out and just missed in this vid. at what range is teh crossbow inaudible? did you say 14 or 40?

[@4FSGaming]

Around 40 meters, you can test it yourself in 3D view if you want to hear what it sounds like at different ranges.

[@swapertxking]

i wonder how this video would be updated for the current version?

[@kunou4527]

Poison Hand Crossbow silently one shots Grunts, Immolators, Armoreds, Horses, Crows, and Ducks. It will also cause all nearby meatheads to aggro the player you tag with it.

[@anmlbmzn]

Now we can change bolts

[@MrSpoonwarrior]

the hand crossbow poison can be really effective in group play and especially during nighttime... i've killed miltiple squads solo with hand crossbow poison... no, it can't oneshot to the chest... but using it to take the sneaky shot to just poison people can make people panic...

[@MechMK1]

Or, they could already be dead if you had been using the regular hand crossbow.

[@MrSpoonwarrior]

@@MechMK1 you usually only shoot it at people who have been hit by something Else... Or if there is a meathead very close...

Does the poison crossbow not do bonus poison damage to hunters? I was hopeful the antidote nerf would make it a real weapon

hand cross bow poison isnt for killing things, its for fire guys and birds

[@VGLounge]

I love to play with *2* Poison Crossbows.

[@Friday_WasTaken]

also you did show gameplay, but i think the fact that the shotbolt can penatrate surfaces as if a shotgun was shot pointblack into the wall deservs some more attention. this is a wall bang machine. and i have 1 and 2 taped people in a sniper tower by just lobing bolts at the walls THERE IS NO WHERE TO RUN! MWHANAHAHAH and shooting htoguh scelings. nothing is as scary as that, often the shotgun loses alot of bower in the few m between the sealing or spreads to far, but the shotbolt. oh no its like the step on a mine. god what a satisfying feeling

[@butWhyDad]

Can you do an updated version I think they changed the crossbow right?

[@abrittishpanfish6269]

weird quirk a friend found is that the poison crossbow can silently kill birds

[@dylangayler9621]

Is this still true!?

[@heinrichwuerfel]

is it possible to hit two players that are standing behind each other with a single shotbolt?

[@wetnightmare6661]

Hey do you think the Poison hand crossbow can actually be useful now with the poison changes?

[@4FSGaming]

Not really, it still can't 1 shot kill and is probably even worse with the changes to weak antidote and mithriadist

[@Peagaporto]

Something I learned during the event, you cant measure the poison bolt with other weapons. Its a purely pve tool, it kills everything other than spider and hives very, very quietly. Yes, including the meathead, 3 poison bolts drops them. You can kill sound traps as well for better mobility trough the map. I pair it with the bomblance when laying solo and just avoiding players all together, if I get cornered the poison clouds can obscure the vision indoors where the bomblance melee is much more effective than a sidearm would.

[@SimpleAmadeus]

1. Remove the antidote shot (it's honestly OP, and in an uninteresting way, because it simply removes an entire mechanic from the game). 2. Give the poison crossbow a small poison & glass explosion, that deals about 40 to 70 damage and causes both poison and bleed. This would make it a powerful gun against people behind cover, because they are now damaged, bleeding, can't heal, and can't see well. This would make it much easier to rush them down.

[@SimpleAmadeus]

Alternatively, in stead of removing the antidote shot, make it a more expensive healing shot that works while poisoned, and also removes the poison.

[@mabdullahsari]

You forgot to mention that the shotbolt is the only crossbow variant than can penetrate wood.

[@4FSGaming]

This is true, some of the clips at the end show some great shots up through the floor.

[@6ch6ris6]

lol didnt even know there was a poison crossbow

[@schoenperkins8210]

I have to say, even ignoring the new update you underestimated the poison handbow. It’s still trash at PVP, but its effects allow to nearly silently bulldoze through immolators and armored while tearing the butcher and the assassin apart just as quietly. Did i forget that it lets you silence crows and ducks WAY better than a lantern?

[@soleglintyyy3460]

You didn't mention at all that poison crossbow kills birds and ducks as well.

[@BrilliantBenGaming]

A free hunter with a crossbow is a insta-win, trust me :D

[@roymcgrath9236]

Poison crossbow is actually VERY useful, instant kills fire and armor mobs and works well killin the sas or butcher

[@4FSGaming]

Seems like a meager benefit for a medium slot weapon, dusters are just as good against the immolator and an axe is far better for butcher/assassin

@@jere8445 thanks for the tip

[@Tri-Technology]

It's not really about the exact distance. You need to know that the maps are 1 km x 1 km so divide it into 10 parts for 100 meter pieces. In the most compounds you have sightlines from 5 meters until 70 meters so a Vetterli with medium ammo deals still good damage at any range and is close to the mosin damage output. And it's nice to know that a mosin can instant headshot at 250 meters because my mate got killed some days ago from 208 meters away :D

Poison crossbow is a good tool for assassin and butcher as well as dealing with AI dogs, and fire boys. I'll take the poison over hand crossbow any match.

It is useful against immolators, but the basic knife is better for dogs, and world melee items like the axe are far, far better against bosses.

What is a meter in Hunt ? How can I know if the target distance is 20 m or 50 m ?

[@w.jebediah]

There's no sure-fire way to know. but you can get an idea of distances when you're downed because it displays the distance from your body to your partner. Keep switching between your screen and your partner's screen to see what certain distances look like. I wish there was a 100m grid on the map or something to make it easier but there isn't, sadly :(

That's a silly question because most people won't be able to differentiate 30 or 50 meters in real life, when I was in the army and shot targets at 50 meters I was shocked at how close they were to me considering 50 is an intimidating number, like Josh said, death cams, the firing tool in the weapons shop is also a good indication.
