This mod rebalanced all crossbow to a more unique and a bit stronger version. My main goal is also to make them more balanced, so any feedback is welcome.
Here the summary:
I keep the logic that each crossbow you obtain become more powerful, from the main game to the Blood & Wine. But also to keep the consistent that Master/Magic aren't better than Relic/Witcher. Which they have been improved because I think they should be stronger. Such are the free DLC, Death from Above and Ravix/Geralt's crossbow. Especially Witcher crossbow which are now the best crossbow of the game but more expansive to craft.
They don't have new stats or new effects from armour/swords/bolts, but each of them are now unique. None have exactly the same stats list and same attack power (with exception).
And finally, I add new and distinguish names for which replace duplicated "Crossbow", as well as Ofir and Toussaint Crossbow [Translation files available in the misc. files].
Summary end.
All details are included in the Docs/Article page, or in a text files inside the mod.
