The time it takes for a crossbow to work effectively depends on the context. If you're referring to the time it takes to load and shoot a crossbow, it typically takes a few seconds to cock and load the bow before firing. However, for hunting or target practice, the overall effectiveness also relies on the user's skill and familiarity with the equipment.
