The dragon hunter crossbow is a possible reward from the Chambers of Xeric. Equipping the crossbow requires 65 Ranged and increases both accuracy and damage by 30% when fighting dragons (excluding Elvarg and revenant dragons), as well as wyverns and the Great Olm. This stacks additively with Void Knight equipment, not multiplicatively. The crossbow will, however, stack multiplicatively with the Slayer helm (i) (49.5%).
Long kebbit bolts and Kebbit bolts cannot be used with this weapon, unlike the similarly named hunters' crossbow that can fire them. Broad bolts may be used, however, they require 55 Slayer to use. The crossbow has an attack range of 7. Longrange increases attack range by 2.
