i no longer need a bow with a skill
i just discovered that the crossbow mastery boosts the damage of blade fury if you have a bow on
so with good bolts and a good damage bow this sin will own

There is no crossbow with strafe but one with +1-3Multishot. It is a unique pellet bow. My Sniper-Assassin is carrying one :)

Does the poison tree apply to the crossbow as it does to the dagger?
I still am trying to figure out the new changes.

Confusion here: "the poison tree" implies a Necromancer, but the thread is about a crossbow assassin (who has the Venom skill)

Once you (as an assassin or any char with a "venom skill) cast Venom, it has effect for *any* weapon you use (I haven't tried throwing potions but I think they're exempt from this 'any weapon' rule)

The Poison Tree (Poison dagger) has effect when wielding dagger-class weapons and (AIUI) polearms also.

I just want to say that my Crossbow-Assassin reached level69 with a MS damage of 27-31K and 6 Bolts when firing MS with 100%pierce. I also skilled all light-Traps which has a damage of 1-10k till now. Very easy to play and when i really get through hell i will write a guide for her :)

Try this kinda assassin you will like it ^_^ !

Good starter idea; cheap and fast!

For later development, gamble a Rare mantle, and cube it with (junk) Rare charms, one charm at a time, until you get the mods you want.
'Rare' is important so you can temper the Mantle with 3 hearts for 15-20% life-steal (Tempering doesn't work on blue items).

(I'm not teaching *you* aleksa, I'm your student in this matter!  :biggrin:)

Will be kinda hard to get a good Mantle this way.
Only do if u don't need the charms and need the leech.
