I also had planned on having my Samurai use the double shot (and eventually the triple shot) crossbow.
I did end up giving it to my Bard. Now she usually plays the rousing drums in the first round of combat and switches over to the triple-shot or Fang depending on the range to the monsters. After 4-5 rounds she usually has pound a hv. stamina potion, but otherwise does pretty well. I have definately found that I am using the instruments less and less as I go along. They just do not seem as effective compared to what my Bishop and Ranger, both with powercase at high level, can dish out.
As it is now, I have a pretty good ranged party. My fighter is welding the Strong Bow, the Samurai a Hunter Bow, the Ranger the Eagle Eye Bow, and then the Bard with the triple shot. When I arm them all with good amo most monsters are pretty beat up by the time the get into melay range (if they make it at all).
