Repeating Crossbow - Rust - Facepunch Forum

So... Maybe some of you might know, but some may not, that there was something like repeating crossbow. [URL="https://www.google.pl/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=Repeating+crossbow"]https://www.google.pl/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=Repeating+crossbow[/URL] And... it was invented in XV Century(15th) by Koreans. Wikipedia about its abilities: [QUOTE]The recurved repeating crossbow is generally still weaker than the regular recurved crossbow, and was mainly used for sieges or behind shield cover. The Chinese repeating crossbow had a maximum range of 120 meters, with an effective range of 80 metres (260 ft). Non-recurved versions of the repeating crossbow were often used for home defense. [/QUOTE] Also, it does mention how easy it was to make and use one, and how much faster it was against Arbalests(XII(12th) Century european crossbow, the one with the crank), but also how ineffective it was against armored troops, because of its low power: [QUOTE]The weapon was extremely easy to manufacture and use, and, in the hands of a trained soldier, could easily launch ten bolts in fifteen seconds.In comparison, an arbalest could only deliver about two bolts a minute. The repeating crossbow, with its smaller and lighter ammunition, had neither the power nor the accuracy of an arbalest, however. Thus, it was not very useful against more heavily armoured troops unless poison was smeared on bolts, in which case even a small wound may prove fatal.[/QUOTE] It seems they looked like this: [IMG]http://www.arrowmania.de/bilder/pfeilewerfer/repeating-crossbow.jpg[/IMG] So yeah. When they put more arrow types in, this should be implemented as well imo.

I agree, great idea, (Almost like installing Linux, but Linux is still better) But i think rust need chu-ko-nu variant of crossbow. [url]https://youtu.be/oRCKGdHz4HU?t=152[/url]
