Arbelists are a multiplayer ranged class of Vlandia.

Official Description[]

Vlandian warlords discovered that, while levying peasants is a necessary evil, they can get the most out of it by giving them crossbows and teaching them how to point and shoot properly with them. Using this machine, which is in essence a handheld version of the feared Calradic ballistae, Vlandian Arbelists can punch a hole through even the heaviest armor of the day.
