Warrior is the ultimate weapon user and crossbow were much the sniper rifle of its time. And that’s how a Warrior should us it slow attack with power shots as the other skills.

Guardian is on the often represented in movies and games as used by holy warriors. Although there may not be a good reason for this having it on the Guardian does fit this. Have it as a mid range with well guardian like spell arrow skills.

Engineer is all about the technology so having a repeater crossbow could work for them.

I know I didn’t add ranger but I am not sure it fits there play style. The way Anet created them.

Had exactly the same idea as you. Guardian really needs a decent ranged weapon. But, not much point giving cross bow to warrior (at least as things stand) as they already have decent ranged weapons in rifle & long bow (and warrior is my main). Van Helsing style crossbow would seem great for engi too. Lastly how about for thief? – fits well to have a thief with a sort of ranged stealth weapon – a role a crossbow is sometimes used in.

Agree with ranger – rangers use long/short bows that require lots of practice and it’s part of their definition. Was glad to see they couldn’t use firearms either.
