I tried the crossbow in one bug match and got my ass handed to me. So I was shocked to see it nerfed afterwards. Do you use it regularly? Any tips?

I've only seen one video singing its praises and it basically boils down do learn how to range it properly. The best use I saw for it was using it like a mortar, or triggering bug breaches very far from the group to make sure the timer is on cooldown for future fights. I won't be diving with it any time soon though.

I don't use it and have no tips because of skill issues. It would be fun to have the entire team use it and see how far it can go.

And yes, I am that one person who brings a flame thrower to a bot planet because I thought it was funny.

I heard someone recently say it's a good anti-medium unit weapon? So like the railgun maybe? I dunno
