Whether they're good or not depends on what bolts you use in combination with them as well as your tactics. And the way you upgrade, of course. I'd probably say the crossbows are much more efficient in pvp though, as they work great for surprise attacks, especially the avelyn, which i've had to face of several times. So yeah, they are good as long as you know how to use them. As for the heavy crossbow, i rarely use it, but i believe i saw a video on it with some guy using it, so it could be a good weapon later on, once it's maxed out and you have better bolts, but until then, it's not the best choice.
