Rapid Shot - quick quesiton for devs.

[Strumpoo]

So, according to the Dev release notes, Rapid Shot will now work with repeating heavy X-bows?

Will it also work with regular heavy X-bows, Great Xbows and light X-bows?

Do we have a %tage on how much faster they will fire?

Just wondering.

I have never been able to tell any speed increase since getting Rapid Shot... IS there a percentage that it increases shot speed? 2% mabye?

It's quite easy to see if you pay attention to before and after. much much much much faster, maybe 40%?

Well with bows, I know it is much faster, but on X-bows we have no idea. It doesn't work currently. Just trying to see what bows it will affect and how much it will affect them.

Rapid shot is vastly faster than rapid reload. When Hasted my little halfling fires like an infantryman(M-16, tripleshot).

If Rapid Reload would shorten the reload time as well, and Rapid Shot would remain the speed at which I fire, I'd take Rapid Reload as well to tighten up those empty moments.

Rapid Reload is what I meant. Thank you for correcting me Glass.

I want to know how Rapid Reload will affect the normal X-bows. Not just the repeaters. If any devs care to respond that would be sweet.

Rapid Reload should currently work for all normal crossbows (though it was reported in the past 2-3 months that timetest results were less than +10%). Mod6 will apply the same +10% increase to Repeaters.
