Crossbowman

Crossbowman is the crossbow-and-bolt specialisation of the Bowman branch, advancing from Bowman at level 30. Crossbowmen commit to Crossbows as their permanent weapon (the parallel Hunter class commits to bows) and pick up the signature Iron Arrow active: a single bolt that pierces straight through every monster in its path, dealing damage to each one in a line.

Advancement

Crossbowman is a 2nd-job class advancing from Bowman. The advancement quest unlocks at level 30 and is initiated at Athena Pierce's school in Henesys. The Bowman Job Instructor on The Road to the Dungeon conducts the advancement test.

Requirements to become a Crossbowman:

Level 30 or higher
Job: Bowman
The bowman 2nd-job advancement quest completed, with the Crossbowman path chosen (the parallel choice is Hunter)

The Hunter / Crossbowman fork is the only branching point in the bowman tree. The choice is permanent without a job-reset item.

There is no 3rd job advancement in Classic World yet.

Equipment

Crossbowmen wield Crossbows exclusively and require Bolts equipped in the off-hand slot as consumable ammunition. Crossbows and bows are not interchangeable. A Crossbowman cannot meaningfully use a bow, and vice versa. Armor is the bowman line, identical to Hunter's.
