Crossbow missiles are more effective against armour, but the Longbows' higher rate-of-fire makes more than up for that. Arbalesters beat both when it comes to armour penetration, but it depends on the situation (pure killing power versus rate-of-fire) wether you will prefer Longbows or Arbalesters.
