I'm getting better every day. Been using it as a secondary for a couple weeks. I never used this thing in 4 years. Just ARs, SMGs, and Diamiattis (not even shotguns). Mostly a pride thing. Since I'm going to finally uninstall and abandon the game with BO6 (no matter if it's good or bad), I'm trying out all the toxic cheesey stuff I passed on for all this time.
I've learned that the crossbow isn't easy to use like I thought it was. It takes skill. You have to lead enemies, account for the drop, and it has the exact same type of misses the hand cannon often has, where the bullet (arrow) goes right through someone and doesn't register at all. I learned with if you miss, you're dead. And I learned that it takes skill to shoot it, duck, dance into cover for the reload, then pop out again to shoot again. It's only a bot tool if they're camping corners or are staying aimed directly at a door or staircase.
Fun weapon.
