Usage

Dragon crossbows are similar to bows, but take longer to load and are slightly more powerful, shooting farther with slightly higher accuracy. Alternatively, they can be loaded with a firework rocket, which flies in a straight line.1
Load them by using them, which makes the player move at sneak speed. Unlike bows, the arrow or firework rocket can be fired only if the player releases the use button after the dragon crossbow is loaded. At this point, it must be used a second time to fire its bolt.1
Once it has reached full charge, the player's speed returns to normal. After that, shooting a charged dragon crossbow does not delay any of the player's current action like sprinting or swimming.1
In order to use the dragon crossbow, at least one arrow or firework rocket must be present in the inventory.1
