Ranged Weapons

Most ranged weapons scale with Tactics, though some crossbows only scale with Survival. A few of these weapons can also dual-scale with Brutality or Survival, meaning their DPS will scale off the higher stat between the two.

Two major classes of ranged weapons exist: bows and crossbows, which usually have limited ammunition, and spells, magic weapons which do not have ammunition. Some weapons with ammo cannot benefit from the effect of the Ammo mutation, they are denoted with † in the following table (namely Frost Blast, Hokuto's Bow, Ice Shard and Boomerang).

Crossbows are now two-handed weapons. When equipped, they allow you to store a weapon within the backpack. This weapon cannot be used while you have a two-handed weapon, but if you switch to a one-handed weapon you can use the weapon that was stored.

†: not affected by the Ammunition mutation
