Sharpshooter is a bit disappointing

Mmh, not with power draw up and a hurricane bow.

See, power draw increases bow damage by 14% ( i heard it was 8% in this mod ) per power draw you have.

Crossbows dont.

Meaning that (assuming its 8% per powerdraw) a hurricane bow deals:

36p + 8x6(%) (assuming 6 power draw) = 36+48% = 53.28P + 10p(bronze arrows) = 63.28P ( Assuming the 10 pierce is post-powerdraw )

so 63.28 pierce vs 75 pierce - 75 pierce shoots once every 4 sec(maybe slower), 63,28 pierce shoots once every 1 sec.

Damage per second on bow: 63.28

damage per second on crossbow (assuming 4 sec break between shots): 18,75

This is fine, cause the crossbow is the one whos supposed to SNIPE down enemies, killing them with one shot, so ofcourse lower damage per second, but they should have a visible increase in damage per hit, imo.
And erh.. I saw a crossbowman shoot a serf.. Twice.. Before he died. (Tier 4 crossbowman, with that invisible crossbow)

Im not complaining - Im not a crossbowman , im just theorycrafting .. I did leave out some factors. (Like bolts damage bonus, shoot speed etc) And i did not try out crossbowman, so i dont know the exact reload time etc.
