I have a lvl 70 Night elf hunter and have noticed several things about ranged weapons. Bows and crossbows are both good weapons for warriors, hunters etc. I have noticed that as you level higher, crossbows price and value are much better than bow's price and value. If you are going to use a ranged weapon(not including guns) you should use a crossbow. If you don't agree with this, this is just what I think personally and hope it works for you.

I.. don't get it. Pre-60, the only crossbows you can get are rare, expensive, and usually not worth the time due to such slow speeds, unless you're simply buying them for stats. Being that hunters burn through ranged weapons quickly, and warriors/rogues really have little use for ranged.. their ONLY purpose is stats. After 60, sure.. you have a lot more on the market, all greens.. however now you have 300+ skill points to cover. On top of that, prices are either the same, or MORE expensive (for whatever reason.)
