Everything About Best Solo Crossbow Build in Throne and Liberty

A crossbow is a type of weapon that allows you to fight in style with fast movement and unrelenting attack speed. You can leave marks and unleash merciless barrage on the weak enemies. The crossbow is known for its high single-target damage and debuff potential, making it a popular choice among players who prefer a weapon with a more precise and tactical approach. This weapon is handy when fighting bosses or other targets requiring focused single-target DPS. 

Skills in Throne and Liberty are the abilities you can modify and are based on the weapons you’re currently equipping. Your Build and Skills are decisive in your weapons selection. Weapons can be swapped and you can acquire new skills that you learn during a leveling process in the game. Active, Passive, and Defensive are the three different types of skills in Throne and Liberty.

Crossbow Pros	Crossbow Cons
Single target DPS	Only Singl target
Long Range	Weak AOE
Versatile	No Healing

Best Weapons Choice

Crossbow gives you access to Mobility, mostly in the form of movement speed, including a bind and movement speed reduction cleanse. This weapon also has built-in cooldown reduction mechanics, further enhancing the overall speed and damage it can produce. Crossbows are fast and deal a lot of damage but you’re squishy and need to do it up close. Despite being considered a ranged weapon, Crossbow plays much more like a melee class than a ranged one. Crossbows have weak AOE damage.

The Off-hand Weapon for the Solo Crossbow Build is a Wand. The wand is a ranged weapon that can also heal your party members in small bursts. Wand in Throne and Liberty is well-suited for solo and group PvE content. However, this weapon offers crowd control and deals massive damage. Just like other weapons in Throne and Liberty, the wand also has a few drawbacks, which include limited AOE damage and low DPS.

The other weapon that works well with the crossbow is the dagger. Dagger in Throne and Liberty excels in close-quarter combat, but be mindful of your positioning. Daggers are single-target weapons that can just eliminate enemies who are below 50% health with a single critical hit. Dagger is a melee weapon that provides Burst damage, Critical hit damage, and Crowd Control. Daggers deal bonus damage to stunned enemies, so using status effects will greatly improve your damage output.

Defense Skills

Rapturing Parry

The defensive skill for the crossbow is rapturing parry, which is when you defend against attacks. This skill deals Base Damage to the enemies if you defend against the fury attack perfectly. The Vampiric attack will be activated once the fury is blocked and the health will regenerate based on damage given to the enemy.

Defensive skills are skills that allow you to defend against attacks. Enemies will have a “Fury Attack,” a purple circle drawing down to a central point. You can defend against the Fury Attack by using your defensive skill at the precious moment for a perfect defense. Each weapon has its defensive skill, which consumes stamina instead of mana, shown on the left of your User Interface when used. Special effects occur when you successfully defend against a Fury Attack; timing is vital for maximizing your build’s potential.

Weapon Mastery

The best weapon mastery tree for the Crossbow Build is Move and Recovery because it provides Magic Defense and unlocks the last passive.

Below are the best weapon mastery selections in Throne and Liberty using the Solo Crossbow Build.

• Crossbow- Consume 9 points into Move and then swap to Chain Fire to obtain Brutal Wound.
• Wand- Spend 9 points into recovery initially to unlock the last passive and then switch to Weaken to help with curse targets.

Weapon Mastery is a system that gives you experience for your weapon that is equipped proportional to the experience earned.  Weapon Mastery points are limited at the beginning of the game but you gain more mastery points as you progress in the game. While your off-hand weapon gains less weapon mastery, your main-hand weapon gets all the mastery points.

Best Stat Points

The most important stat for a Solo Crossbow Build is Strength and then Dexterity.

Below is the best recommended Stat Point:

• 45 Strength: affects defense, maximum health, maximum damage, and minimum damage.
• 27 Dexterity: affects critical attack, evasion, and maximum damage.
• 22 Wisdom: affects maximum mana and mana regeneration, skill cooldown, and maximum damage.
• 20 Perception: effect accuracy of attacks, Crowd Control effects, enhancing time boost ability, maximum damage, and minimum damage.

In Throne and Liberty, stat points are earned while leveling and increasing your effectiveness. When you spend a stat point, you increase the effectiveness of that related attribute. However, after a certain number of points, you reach diminishing returns, and two points are required to increase a stat rather than one. Moreover, once stats reach a certain level spent (30 or greater), you gain unique bonuses.

Guardian

Green Ranger Elowen is the best Guardian for a Solo Crossbow build because it binds targets and increases damage to them. This is helpful to keep enemies at range and burst them down.

An Alternate to Green Ranger Elowen is Lady Knight Kamarshea because of the shield and cooldown reductions she provides. Lady Knight is a defensive shield that helps survivability.

Guardians are 10-minute cooldown “ultimate” abilities that should be used during intense fights, bosses, or near death. She’s a powerful skill and can be unlocked after reaching level 25 and completing chapter 25. Complete Chapter 25 and reach level 25 to acquire Guardians. Increase your Solo Crossbow Build potential by learning the way to gain additional guardians. Keep in mind that these skills are used within 10 minutes.
