New in the mod and the crossbow

[Huscarlton Banks]

For leveling I'd actually say that crossbowman is easier to level than archer in the first 2 tiers.

This extends to t3 if you happen to be lucky enough to have a bolt tosser, just spam bodyshots on rangers.

I'd say engineer for crossbowman, unless you happen to get a tome.

Equipment wise, crossbow gear is pretty cheap until you get to the legendaries or t4 armor.
