The crossbow is a weapon in Fallout 76 and Nuclear Winter.

Characteristics[edit | edit source]
A sturdy crossbow with metal limbs and a wooden stock. While the crossbow deals high amounts of damage, it can only have one bolt loaded at a time, with the exception of the Nuclear Winter game mode in which it can have a maximum of three. As with all bows, the crossbow is equipped with a hidden silencer in the game files, granting it Sneak functionality similar to that of a suppressor.

Bugs[edit | edit source]
NPCs will occasionally comment on crossbows calling it a sniper rifle, due to WeaponTypeSniper keyword.[verified]
- "Sniper rifle, eh? I bet you can pick 'em off before they even know you're there."
- "Only cowards hide behind a scope. Don't tell Surge I said that though."
