The Laser Crossbow is a Sniper weapon added in the 10.2.0 update.
Description[]
It is a futuristic crossbow that shoots piercing shots and that can be used in long range. It has good damage, a medium fire rate, a average capacity, and a slow mobility. This weapon is currently a 2 bodyshot and 1 headshot.
Appearance[]
The Laser Crossbow is a golden crossbow with a wooden handle, silver nozzle and a blue tip in the middle of the nozzle.
It has a scope with a blue lens. Near the barrel are 3 rings, similar to the Prototype.
Performance[]
This weapon emits blue laser shots with a high bullet travel time and in which are harder to see for opponents, since the opponents cannot easily see the shots, unlike the Prototype and Anti-Champion Rifle among others. The shots have an instantaneous bullet travel time just like most snipers and can pierce shot through multiple players. It has an 8x scope which allows sniping and killing players in longer range.
When reloading, the magazine from the bottom is removed and is replaced by a spare one.
It gives a delay on some weapons that are associated with Three Category Spam like the Thunderer and the Reflector.
Strategy[]
Tips[]
- This gun has a pretty good fire rate, so use it wisely to get some nice killstreaks.
- If you notice strafing enemies, you can pair this weapon with a slowing one for better results.
- Shoot the enemy with your slowing weapon to make aiming at them easier.
- The Sticky Candy is great when paired with this weapon.
- Due to its high damage to lower levels and fair performance at higher levels, the Laser Crossbow is rather worthwhile.
- Aim for the head to maximize damage.
- Don't camp or stay still with this weapon as your enemy can dodge your attacks and locate you with its tracer rounds, and you will be vulnerable from sudden ambushes.
- Reload when you are sure there are absolutely no enemies around.
- Use this then switch to a high damage weapon such as the Reflector to finish them, or an automatic rifle such as the Adamant Laser Cannon.
- This weapon is great for countering players who often take cover behind walls.
- Notice that the damage dealt to the enemy decreases if it goes through a wall.
Counters[]
- Dodge the user's shots, and continue moving and jumping.
- If the user happens to be a camper, the weapon's blue tracer rounds give away their location, so use that to your advantage.
- It is one of the best weapons for long ranges so if you happen to be targeted, use your most mobile weapon and run and jump. From there you could do 3 things:
- Hide and take cover behind a wall. If you choose to do this then you must make sure that the laser crossbow user can't see your name. Due to it having the wall-break.
- Run to the enemy. You could try to spot him/her and use your fastest weapon to close the gap between you and him/her, but this is riskier.
- Try to use your sniper and take him/her out before they hit you. Don't stand still when doing this for the laser crossbow has a decent fire rate for a sniper rifle.
- Since some low-level users may have this weapon for 'other' uses, they have a lower chance of hitting you.
- Area damage weapons easily pick off its users, especially at close range, but be sure to retreat frequently or you may get hit.
- Try to jump when they fire and hit them with a high-damage automatic weapon, thus overwhelming them.

Equipment Setups[]
Have a good close range area damage weapon. This weapon can also be used as a 3 category spam sniper. Have a high mobility weapon with you to move fast while moving towards enemies.
At maximum efficiency (423,which means it needs to be mythical) with a maximized elemental module and the Halloween Mask, it does exactly 199% damage to the body. So, equip a weapon with a high fire rate, high capacity and low damage (like most Primary weapons, some Backup weapons and some Special weapons) to finish off the opponent.
