Well, I suppose I'll ask here. Should I switch from a 1 slot bow to a 3 slot crossbow? And if you say yes, what do you recommend I card it with?

EDIT
Oh, and I'm not interested in MVP setups. A normal hunting setup or a PvP/WoE setup would be nice.

i'd rather you prefer getting a 4s composite or a 2s arbalest or gakkung, while hunting hydras and skeleton workers.

like the one above me said.. a +10 composite bow[4] with 4 hydras to PVP or 4 turtle general (VERY RARE AND HARD TO GET CARD) can do the job easly..
the hydra is the perfect card for PVP i think and the turtle general have the same effect like the hydra.. but this effect works not only on players.. also on monsters so if u will have 4 turtle general cards.. put them in a +10 composite bow and then u got the best bow for PVP and also the best bow for PVM

the composite bow[4] u can find in comodo field 08... try to get like 30-40 composite bow[4] and make one of them into +9 or enev +10 if u have time and u feel lucky =]

hope i helped u =]

honestly, however, i really doubt the use of bows later on. i mean, i only can do freaking a minimum of 100 damage with bows against LKs :|

Actually 4 hydra cards are not the most efficient way to do this. To understand why you need to understand that the calculation for damage (extremly simplified mind you) goes like this:

Total Damage = Base Damage * Size * Type * Element

Keep in mind this is a gross oversimplification to enunciate the point clearly.

Now as you can see its more effective to add %'s that are seperated from each other, as they add to the one before it. For instance with 4 hydra cards and an assumption of 100 damage to make things simple:

X = 100 * 1 (varies with weapon and cards, we'll assume 1 as a sword) * 1.8 (4 hydras at +20%) * 1 (Assuming no other cards in weap. and non elemental armor).

Using your Quad bloody weapon we achieve 180 damage. Not bad, but could be better.

Now if instead we use a double bloody double boned weapon (boned = +20% vs medium size)

X = 100 * 1.4 * 1.4 * 1

We now achieve 196 damage. An improvement of 11.25%. Relatively minor, sure. But that could mean the differance in a pvp match, and its not any harder to achieve, so why not?

(As stated, all calculations are grossly oversimplified, and dont take into account min / max hit, armor, and the much more complicated expressions needed therein. It does however illustrate the point that %'s from seperate "sections" stack and multiply within themselves in a sort of exponential equation)

even with that... it's still rather pathetic how a bow becomes unsuccessful later on..

eventually people are gonna get falcon assault along with traps like ankle snare, shockwave, and blast mine.
