Phoenix crossbow

The Phoenix crossbow is a quest item, although it can be traded. It has the same statistics as a regular crossbow; it just looks different, and weighs slightly less. It can be obtained and is used in the quest Shield of Arrav. The Phoenix crossbow requires a Ranged level of 1 to wield, and can only use bronze bolts.

The Pheonix crossbow is not often used, as the Bronze crossbow requires the same Ranged level to equip, but gives a Ranged accuracy of +11, whilst the Pheonix crossbow only gives +6. Despite this, the Pheonix crossbow is essentially free, and so is favoured by players who cannot afford a bronze crossbow.
