I vote for the stamford
Great weapon, useful in all modes
I use it even if theres a DWP/Fell Edge on the ground.
I got mine for around 250k

It's not nearly as useful as an Arba, though. I still use an Ornate Espada on my Passive Champ, and it's working fine, so it's not that much of a priority, imo.

The first things you should buy are the Havy Kettle and  a Emblemed and Plate Mittens and a Ornate Espada and then a Arbalest. Armors arent useful at a Full Ragnarok Server I Know but if you play with a bad Team ...

Plate Mittens, Emblemed and the Ornate Espada don't add much armor/damage compared to the marketplace ones, but can be rather expensive for a starting player. An arba, however, is 10x better than a Siege Crossbow, because it is so much faster, and adds 8 damage. A crossbowman with marketplace armor and 1 hander, and an arbalest is a lot stronger than a crossbowman with Emblemed, Mittens, Espada, and a Siege Crossbow.

Thinking more over this, I agree with Maroon
If you have a low damage/low rate of fire crossbow on ragnorak, you are almost a hindrance on the team, rather than a helper. Arbalest is a great weapon, capable of 1 shotting most enemies on normal/hard, and killing most enemies on rag in a few shots.

Bumpity

I guess your next goal must be a better crossbow but it will take a while (bigshot or repeater , if you re lucky enough a legendary one).

Just enjoy the game for now

I also have same equipment problems, i have

Emblemed
Siege Xbow
Gold Bolts
Best Marketplace helmet
No Melee

I am doing good without melee , if i need it i can pick it from the ground for now , should i go directly for the arbalest?

[Tyrion.]

Yes, you should..
