Forgotten Crossbow
The Forgotten Crossbow deals decent per shot damage at range, and can be modified to shoot multiple projectiles at once. It's great for dealing damage or stacking Poison or Burn on the target, depending on which Infusion you choose.
“Traded to a merchant by a desperate addict, this crossbow is surprisingly well-calibrated.”
Acquisition
- Inside Flooded Village (Blackridge Cliffs). See the map.
