A Crossbow is a ranged weapon that can be used at any level. It can fire both Crossbow bolts and Pearl bolts. It cannot be made using the Fletching skill. A Crossbow can be purchased at some archery stores and can be found at a spawn in Wilderness and Underground Pass graveyards. In RuneScape Classic there are only two types of crossbow, this and the Phoenix crossbow.
It may be used at up to 4 tiles of distance from the target. A crossbow with crossbow bolts has the potential to hit higher than a longbow with bronze arrows, and may possibly be comparable to a longbow with iron arrows. This would make it the hardest-hitting ranged weapon in free-to-play. A crossbow with Pearl bolts may be comparable to a bow with mithril arrows.[1][2]
It can be used with a shield to provide extra defense should the player be attacked with melee.
