Cross Bow

I liked Crossbows and throwing stars and all that stuff in Morrowind, I would love to see it in Skyrim.

I would only want a crossbow if its animations where better than the damn gun animations from either Fallout game. I don't want to reload in 1.3 seconds, I want it to take more like 5 like in real life... Same with a crossbow. If you slap a new bolt on their in 1 second, that would be pretty lame.

If x-bows were added, I agree with this. X-bows should be based on the marksman skill, and take a long time to reload. But I think a few perks under Marksman should be ways to quicken the reloading.

I wonder if Strength requirements would be in the game. Any info on this? Will the Fallout strength requirements make it into Skyrim?

I would like crossbows again, but more importantly I would like throwing stars/knives returned to the game!


I would also like to see hand to hand based weapons added as well such as wristblades and the like!

"Some people want special bows that take too long to load and need special arrows called bolts. M'aiq thinks they are idiots." - M'aiq the Liar.


There won't be crossbows in TES:V, and I couldn't care less...

Vanilla TES:V, that is.

Bring on the X-bows but also give them a blunt damage so i can use them in melee - nothing like using the butt to knock a skeleton archer's head off when i run out of bolts or don't have time to reload.

Crossbows are pretty cool and they would do more damage than a traditional bow with a slower fire rate, spear I'm not so sure I would want it would depend on how they work, if you can throw them too then yes.
There is going to be duel wielding so I would guess you can probably use to daggers, I don't know for a fact though.

Oh and you should add a maybe option in the first to questions, because I did not answer either of them and Maybe is my answer.

Yes, and after the outcry from the fans after Crossbows were removed in Oblivion, I think it's safe to say that Crossbows will be in TES:V. :)


except they were aware that there would be an outcry before they even put the game out, they pulled crossbows with the expectation that it would upset a whole demographic and instead they mocked them via Miaq the liar. bgs is kinda childish in the sense that they don't accept any critisisms and cling to the side that doesn't care about crossbows and spears. they don't care that they are upseting the fraction that likes these things, because the truth is there is a larger demographic of potential consumers that care more about realism, next gen graphics, and dragons (in the same sentence as realism I know, but point of having realism in a fantasy game never made sense any ways).

based on previous actions and whats been said, were likly to see them cut even more weapon types from the game so that they can fit in some other content that is more mainstream.
