There's a MR save to avoid the damage, so it's actually no more dangerous than soul slay. It's advantage is that it's cheap to make and can be given to many commanders instead of what might be a rare astral 3 mage for your nation.

You can also choose your targets better. Of course you also have to hit, it only fires every other turn, and can't have it's MR penetration boosted.

I've never had much luck with Ethereal Crossbows, and now typically forge something else with my Astrals.
