This weapon is much underused. And as far as I know it can't be used in conjunction with arcane archer anyways. What if the devs increased the critical modifier by 1 or 2?
That way it would have a critical hit on 18-20 or even 17-20. As you can't give it keen, you can't increase it further either. I'd say 17-20 would be best.

Re: Enhancing Crossbows
We can keen them, though we won't because they're already great. NC can do brutal things with them (CoT), others could probably do ok (cler obviously).

Re: Enhancing Crossbows
Everything is good or better with divine might. Still, why would somebody choose a crossbow over a longbow, shortbow or sling? Heck, I'd even use shurikens first.

Re: Enhancing Crossbows
Yeah, crossbows suck pretty hard.
The only crossbow better than +5 is a generic duskwood crossbow, you need a feat to shoot more than 1 bolt per round, and they require two hands to use.
From a game mechanics standpoint, slings, shortbows, longbows, and throwing axes are the only ranged weapons anyone should use.
