>>Not as great as the Illaya Taipa stonebow, if you look at weight vs stats

Old crossbows have a fixed damage bonus. New crossbows have a variable damage bonus based on the crossbow's Suitedness. All new stonebows will outperform all old stonebows. Unfortunately, this isn't easy for players to understand. I fully expect players to continue using storebought stuff and doing 1/2 the damage until we get around to updating all the old bows :(

Many old crossbows have 0 Suitedness. So it wasn't like I had anything at all to work with in trying to tie damage to Suitedness like I did for the other ranged weapons :/

As for weight, I decided to increase the weight of all crossbows because previously it was completely illogical and all over the map.
