X-Bow

The X-Bow is a weapon that appears in Carnivores, Carnivores 2, Carnivores Ice Age, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter, and Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter HD. The X-Bow is a very quiet weapon so the chance of scaring a herbivore or attracting a carnivore are slim but it has a slow rate of fire, making it highly ineffective against charging carnivores. It is somewhat accurate and is very useful for hunting large, herbivorous animals from a medium distance. The X-Bow has 8 arrows in Carnivores, and 6 in later games.

Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter HD/Reborn
In Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter HD and Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter Reborn, the X-Bow returns as a more modern-style variant. The X-Bow is a challenging weapon to use effectively. It has several drop-sights in the scope that the hunter must account for, and has a possible range of up to 200 meters. Luckily, the X-Bow is extremely silent, and can be fired off several times without alerting dinosaurs. It is the most damaging weapon in the game, but has very poor range. The X-Bow costs 150 gems in Carnivores HD, and 100 gems in Carnivores Reborn.
