If that is the crossbow itself you are hovering over, the only worthwhile thing to add to it is redstone .... which you dont seem to need anyway. the bow is just a delivery system for your bolts, which do all the damage

Yeah and the arrow speed is slow too.

that is a factor of the arrows parts and the bowstring i believe. adding modifiers doesnt change it. almost literally, the only thing worth adding to a bow is redstone.

some moss saves on repair costs, knockback is sometimes neat to melee things away if t hey get too close, luck is obviously not bad, but there is nothing else you can stack on that will be meaningful.

I think the lowest draw speed is 0.25 if I am not mistaken.

Are the parts:

  • Signalum Limb

  • Thaumium Body

  • Paper Tough Binding

  • Heat Scar Bow String?

Using all of these with bolts:

  • Slime crystal rods

  • Slime LEAVES fletching

  • Enderium Tipping

Will get you a whopping 96.5 hearts of damage.

How do you make the signalum crossbow limb? Molten Signalum won't seem to poor out of the smeltery into anything but an ingot cast

I'm having the same issue. Can't assemble it in the part builder like thaumium either.

I'm in FTB Infinity version 1.4.1 - I managed to fix the issue by updating my server with the latest ExtraTic jar. After updating that it poors out of the smeltery as you'd expect.

as of the current version of Exra Tic Signalum has bonkers base attack damage . you might as well use it now because it w will be nerfed in the next update

1
RuuubiRR3 / Infinity•

Yeah I know, but I meant the other parts.

Is a paper binding, Thaumium Body and a normal Bowstring ok ?

1
nicolasyodude•

Just go full signalum lol, that's probably what op did. IT's insanely overpowered.

EDIT: I am stupid, didn't see the modifiers on the cbow lol sorry

1
XxKeianexXOP•

Yes I can. it was my first Crossbow so I used

Signalum Limb, Regular Bowstring, Manasteel Tough Binding, Signalum Body

Bolts : Enderium tool rod with enderium tips ( Had no idea what I was doing ) and Slimeleaf fletching.

Add 8 more obsidian large plates to make it unbreakable.

1
XxKeianexXOP•

Hmmm, that's a good idea.

Can never have enough attack power, needs more quartz.

1
XxKeianexXOP•

I can't add quartz to the CrossBow, only changes the melee damage.

1
StrangerFeelings•

I was trying to make a joke I guess I failed?

1
XxKeianexXOP•

It gave me a chuckle cause when I first made one testing I did put Quartz on the bow XD

1
StrangerFeelings•

It works to hit mobs with though, I mean you do have a good attack with it.

1
ryvenn•

Er... correct me if this changed since last time I checked, but putting quartz and lapis on a crossbow only helps if you're bashing monsters with it. They're supposed to go on the ammunition.

Same deal with knockback, but if they're close enough to punch you probably actually do want to hit them and knock them back, so that's actually a reasonable choice.

1
XxKeianexXOP•

Yeah I never added these myself, only the moss. It was all leveling it up.

1
ryvenn•

Ah, right right.

EndingMan•

But would you NEED to make it better? It's better than the OreSpawn now, and that thing was supposed to be as broken as possible
