Karil's crossbow

Karil's crossbow is a Two-handed crossbow ranged weapon that is part of Karil the Tainted's set of barrows equipment. To wield the crossbow, players require a Ranged level of 70. It requires ammunition called bolt racks. Both the Karil's crossbow and Karil's pistol crossbow are the only crossbows to use Bolt racks. It is worth noting that with bolt racks equipped this weapon has 94 higher damage than a Zaryte bow, at the cost of a slower attack speed and 438 less accuracy. It is also popular while defeating TzTok-Jad.

Being part of Karil's barrows set, if it is wielded along with all of the other pieces of equipment in Karil's barrows set the player receives a special effect. On successful attacks against a player, there is a chance that it may temporarily lower that player's magic level. Like all Barrows items this weapon, and its ammunition, cannot be made using the Fletching skill.


 * Karil's crossbow is only tradeable when undamaged or fully broken.
