What is a Crossbow?

A crossbow is a ranged weapon in Minecraft that is similar to a bow. It can fire arrows or fireworks as ammunition.

How to Use a Crossbow

To use a crossbow, you first need to craft one. You can do this by combining two sticks, one iron ingot, and one tripwire hook at a crafting table.

Once you have crafted a crossbow, you can equip it in your hand and start shooting arrows or fireworks. To shoot an arrow, simply hold down the right mouse button and release it. To shoot fireworks, you need to first press the left mouse button to activate the crossbow and then hold down the right mouse button to launch the firework.
