The hammer, at least, had lots of color and a fun roleplay value. Given the price, I’d have expected a bit more from the Pillager’s Crossbow. The top isn’t designed to come off…but personally I’d rather leave it off and use the blaster without the extra mass. I went ahead and removed the extra lock for ease of use. It’s somewhat impressive seeing the performance you get while moving that entire plunger mass. The Pillager’s Crossbow is simple on the inside. Overall, the blaster averaged 67fps.ĭue to the easy prime, two shots per second is reasonable to expect. Even so, the shots ranged from 71fps average on the first shot to 62fps on the last. The three dart smart AR, of course, results in progressively weaker shots. Get ready to feel the thrill of firing Nerf Elite darts as you load the blaster, pull the slide back, and pull the trigger. There’s worse out there…but there’s a lot that are better, too. Experience real crossbow action as you battle with the Nerf N-Strike Elite CrossBolt blaster The CrossBolt captures the design of a crossbow with its bow arms and a cord that you pull back with a slide. Who knew blocky grips weren’t ergonomic dreams? Also, if you try to choke up on the grip, your hand gets jammed into the back.
#Nerf crossbow how to
The main grip works, but it’s a bit uncomfortable to use for long periods. Paper Nerf Gun (Cross-bow): This Instructable will show you how to make a super cheap Paper Nerf Gun (Cross-Bow). Given the large vertical protrusion, it’s quite easy. You pull back the plunger handle to prime the blaster. In terms of handling, the crossbow is acceptable, at least. Other colors (like pink and purple) for an enchanted crossbow would have made perfect sense, as well! Perhaps Hasbro could try that for the next production run. But even multiple shades of orange (or a color gradient of any kind) would have looked better, instead of a single, solid color for the whole top of the blaster.
Granted, I don’t think Hasbro would want an all-brown crossbow with grey accents, as per the game. That piece only being in orange…honestly just looks cheap. The “string” is attached here, and it just there for looks.īeing a decorative piece, however, means hoping for decent decoration. It’s decorative, but functionally has no purpose. In that sense, it’s like needing to add the barrel to the Mega Centurion or the Fortnite Heavy SR. Once the pieces are put together, a small lock is depressed, allowing the blaster to be primed and fired. Inside the box, the blaster is in two pieces: you have the main body in white, and the large top piece in orange. Whatever the merits of the blaster, it just looks and feels like a hunk of plastic that happens to shoot darts. It doesn’t look good, it’s more expensive, and it’s awkward in hand.
The same can’t be said, however, of the Pillager’s Crossbow. The Stormlander, while clearly meant for Minecraft fans, has a certain charm to it, even for those of us who don’t play the video game franchise. Every blaster line has winners and losers.
