	A heavy crossbow is the slowest class of bow in Dragonrealms. With high enough stats, a character can slightly reduce the hefty roundtime associated with loading a heavy crossbow. Since [[strength]] is the most significant stat for reducing load time, the heavy crossbow is sometimes favored over the light crossbow for stronger characters.

	There are two types of heavy crossbow: arbalest and non-arbalest types. The non-arbalest types are just like longer loading, harder hitting versions of the [[Light_Crossbow_skill\|light crossbow]], but require an open hand to load and aim. These can be loaded ahead of time and worn on the shoulder. A arbalest type heavy crossbow has load times between 18 and 21 seconds and can be loaded and fired while the off hand is full, but can '''not''' be worn ~~on the shoulder while loaded~~.
