About the Oldworld Bow MkI
Based on salvaged old-world blueprints and manufactured by the Tech Hunters. It's an advanced weapon with a good range and accuracy. More expensive and less common than a Ranger, it's usually used by Tech Hunters expeditions venturing into the dangerous "3 Corners" regions of the continent.In-game description
Crossbows are the only ranged weapons a character can carry; they need bolts of the matching type, and the Crossbows skill sets accuracy, reload speed and rate of fire. Source: Kenshi Wiki
