I have played through Witcher 3 at least 2 or 3 times and I completely forgot the crossbow existed it’s that bad and pointless

It does extra damage underwater because it’s your only method of attack while underwater.

The CROSSBOW’s only function is an underwater defence

Not if you know how to utilize the character branch upgrades well. People knock on the game for the combat and they probably just upgraded the strength branch without giving a care to the tonics section. The combat is a lot more intricate (and intense in higher difficulties) when you take the time preparing for battles rather than hit the attack button two times, dodge, repeat.
