Strategy

The Crossbow is a Rifle-type weapon, meaning it only has 1 round per magazine, so the best way to maximize DPS (damage per second) is to pair it with weapons like the Revolver or Raygun so you get small damage dealers to hit presumably tanky threats like the Bear, Cultist, Mammoth etc. while waiting to reload.
