A Halloween crossbow on Lost Colony
The Cursed Crossbow is a weapon in ARK: Survival Ascended that belongs to the Lost Colony DLC, and our records list it on the Lost Colony map. Our data marks it as a drop from the Halloween event on Lost Colony. The game describes it this way: "Has signifantly more power than the Bow, but cannot fire rapidly. Can fire underwater." Put simply, it gives up rate of fire for power and still works below the surface.
