Crossbow

Could we please get rid of crossbow reloading each rounds. I get the idea of it but if you want builds with 5 buttons it doesn’t make sense to hit the load(reload) button then hit the shoot button. My idea to either just get rid of reload entirely like bow or just keep the skill as a skill button and when we hit that skill button it automatically reloads to that skill you want to use

No.

BUMP! Agreed crossbow is slow as it is and not very mobile so this would help.

No bro lets keep the punishment only for crossbow players...Bow players are preferential. In fact its better to add more investments to crossbow passives and make it more slower. For example 'JAMNT' effect.....

pathetic.....

I'm asking for the removal of crossbows Reloadspeed for months
It clunky slow and buggy ,also add additional button (big problem for controller)

I dont completely agree since it's like a rifle and need reload unlike a bow where you pick arrows from quiver.

What it needs are actually darts to be equipped offhand maybe with inherent reload speed and other stats to give xbows some love. Nodes down there are dogpoo.

Bow is a 2h weapon and got quivers, xbow is 2h as well and got nothing, doesnt make any sense.

Devs want see that crossbow is an abandoned weapon. Every time someone tries the xbow, in around 60-80 quits the try. You can't play with a slow weapon in Endgame where others killing Bosses in 10 sec. 90% of Crossbow skills are garbage. Even if Devs bring quiver to Xbow players the bad situation of skills wouldn't change much.

There is a reload speed affix on jewels, it is also on the tree, so no.

I'm currently enjoying the new crossbow tbh, high base physical damage, sure it misses +projectile level but i dont even feel like i need those.
clearing t16 and t3 pinnacles with ease and the fact you dont reload as long as you life leech it's awesome, quiver would be an awesome add-on.
the inherent skill shows a 2M dps tooltip not even optimized (so maybe T4 ready) and glacial bolt+siege cascade feels very good and chains like crazy. At least i'm not throwing spears all the day :D
