 	Wind Bolt 	Move Speed +25%, Walk Speed +100%. Your bullet damage is increased by bonuses to your Move Speed.	
==Tips==
With only 1 projectile and 1 ammo, the Crossbow has an innate disadvantage against large swarms of enemies. There are a few ways you can turn the tide to your favor:
*Increasing your Fire Rate and Ammo.
*Using summons, which provide additional firepower.
* Using upgrades that fire extra projectiles after firing your last ammo: 
** - Shoot 10 additional bullets in circle around for 15% damage.
** - Shoot 3 additional ice shards that inflict Freeze.
* Using lightning from Electro Mage and Divine Wrath.
Due to its 1 ammo stat, the Crossbow does benefit from "last ammo" upgrades like Holy Arts.
