![]() If you're using an repeater with the stone ring, a single attack (if all hits land) is comparable to a Greathammer 1HR1. Most spell-casters I fight generally have enough poise to make it through a throwing knife, so that every spell they want to cast isn't immediately countered by a smaller, faster projectile. Secondly spell-casters are probably going to have a bad day. Now, two-handing a crossbow and shooting your opponent out of their roll is safer if your positioning is good, because they actually take poise damage and stagger, making the reload animation not as painful as it was before. Not only that, but because they don't take any poise damage at all, it's never a trade in your favor they can just keep hitting you. When one-handing a crossbow, holding R1 and waiting to hit your opponent out of their roll was generally a bad idea unless they had a sliver of health left, because it would almost always result in a trade. First of all, holding your fire until your opponent rolls just got a lot safer. Now, this means a couple different things in a PvP setting. ![]() I do not know about other consumables, but you can find the base poise damage for a lot of different things in the guide linked above. NPC enemies will take the same amount of poise damage per shot whether you're firing one-handed or two-handed.Īnd while testing for this, I also noticed noticed that the stone ring doesn't seem to have an effect on the poise damage of throwing knives. Oddly enough, this only seems to be an issue with phantoms. But firing a crossbow with two-hands causes it to deal the correct amount of poise damage. ![]() I've noticed this on people who get hit with the bolt after a roll, during an attack, during a spell, etc. That's a large amount of poise to eat through for a projectile weapon, so why haven't I ever been able to stun anybody in PvP?Īs it turns out, if you fire a crossbow with one hand, the opponent can simply walk right through it. The stone ring does have an effect on this, bumping the poise damage done by these weapons up to 150 poise damage per attack. That means they deal 60 poise damage in a single attack. ![]() Not only that, but repeaters like the Avelyn and Sanctum Repeating Crossbow deal 20 poise damage per bolt. Well, after some testing on a modified hollow soldier, I've found that bolts do deal poise damage, and they deal the same amount of poise damage that arrows do. Seeing this made me wonder about the lack of a "bolts" section for going over crossbow poise damage. Later on, when checking u/Skorbrand's " Everything you ever wanted to know about poise" guide, I found that arrows were listed as doing 20 poise damage, even though most bows list poise damage at 5. I saw the poise damage on both weapons was listed at "10" and thought that the bolts dealt only 10 poise damage each. First off, I've never been able to stun anyone with either of those weapons. Now, I've used the Sanctum Repeating Crossbow for a very long on a couple different builds, and I've learned a thing or two about both it and the Avelyn. I thought to myself "I've never actually been able to stun someone with a crossbow, lets see if I can do that." So I shoe-horned the stone ring into my build. So, today while trying to decide whether a build of mine should use the Sanctum Crossbow or the Sanctum Repeating Crossbow, poise damage became a deciding factor. I don't know if this is common knowledge already, but I really doubt it considering I wasn't able to find anything about this anywhere else.
