A black crossbow is a crossbow that is more accurate than a steel crossbow. It is members only, and requires a Ranged level of at least 25 to wield. Black crossbows are a possible reward from easy Treasure Trails. Unlike most crossbows, they cannot be made using the Fletching skill.

Both black crossbows have tier 33 accuracy, but cannot exceed tier 25 damage.

Trivia

• Unlike most items of black equipment, the black crossbow, along with black hatchet and black bolt, has no corresponding white crossbow in white equipment.
• Initially, with the release of the Evolution of Combat, the black crossbow lacked two-handed and off-handed equivalents. These were later released on 17 November 2014.
