This crossbow was bad, and now he's even worse, is that the bonus against shields right thing. But the damage to 105 top-level crossbow? Even if I want to sell it no one buy with such characteristics.
The Heavy Crossbow was buffed, though. The 10 pierce is in no way more valuable than the extra 20% armor penetration against any bot you weren't already 1-2 hitting. The Heavy Repeater Crossbow can out-DPS both the Penetrator and Bolt Tosser. In other words, it has only gotten better, yet you are complaining because you see a minus sign.
Ken has a point, though. From what I experienced using Heavy Repeater and Bronze Bolts, I sometimes couldn't onehit Mercenary Repeatermen / Ballistamen with headshots anymore. Even if that should just be due to chance, I'm quite sure you could always get them on the first shot before (correct me if I'm wrong). It seems to me that Rag is the only mode where the Armour Penetration bonus will notably benefit the Heavy Repeater at the moment.
