This blue electricity can be seen when it's still in the Krossbow's chamber where as in the final game, the bolt of the Thunder Bolt has a pulsing orange light and the bolt's orange energy seems to be contained. When the Krossbow is fired, the energy bolt has a blue light when travelling and has blue lightning, especially when the bolt explodes. The energy bolt of the Krossbow has a different appearance compared to the final Thunder Bolt's energy bolt.

It also has different sounds, for example the firing sound of which is much different compared to the Thunder Bolt's final firing sound. It has a diffrent scope, and the stock is slightly longer, and appears generally more angular in design. Here it looked very similar to the Thunder Bolt, except being much more metal-like, unlike the Thunder Bolt. The Thunder Bolt appeared in the 2005-2006 pre-release demo, and it takes the form of the Krossbow (seen on the right). But the bolts however take time to reach their target. For Krone Guards though, they seem to have a great lack of accuracy when firing the crossbow, and your suit provides protection against the enemies' energy bolts. It's worth noting that the bolts fired don't seem to be affected by gravity, so the bolts will shoot in a straight line, which makes your shots perfectly precise.

These bolts have a distinctive orange-red light, a good sign that a user has fired the Thunder Bolt, as well as giving you time to avoid ones fired by enemies. This crossbow fires an energy bolt, of which deals heavy armor penetration to most of your enemies, and when they get hit by one, the bolts will explode for a short time on the target, causing poweamount of damage to them. It's found in the ninth mission (Technically in the first, but it's only seen used by Cooke), and is one of the weapons used by the Krone Guards and Occupant members, and other enemies.

The Thunder Bolt (or ThunderBolt) is a crossbow-type weapon in TimeShift.
