Weapon behavior

See the item notes for verified weapon behavior.

Reinforcement and comparison

Strength and Dexterity scale physical damage equally. Its native requirement is 30 Strength, but the mandatory two-handed firing stance makes 20 Strength sufficient. It also requires 20 Dexterity.

Reinforce to +5 with Twinkling Titanite. It weighs 10, cannot receive weapon coatings and has no elemental conversion paths.

In-game description

Bow of the Dragonslayers, led by Hawkeye
Gough, one of Gwyn's Four Knights.

This bow's unusual size requires that it be
anchored to the ground when fired.
Only uses specialized great arrows.

Where to find

Corpse pickup

Anor Londo

Requirements

  • Reach the upper balcony of the cathedral's main sentinel hall.
  1. In the hall before Ornstein and Smough, reach the upper balcony and find the broken stained-glass window. Step through onto the outside stairs.
  2. Hug the cathedral wall along the narrow ledge, then drop over the railing onto the balcony holding the corpse. Collect the greatbow and arrow.
  3. Leave through the broken section of railing toward the Giant Blacksmith's exterior area. Watch the winged demon below before dropping.

Notes

  • Requirements and weight: Requires 30 Strength, 20 Dexterity and weighs 10.
  • Scaling and requirements: Strength and Dexterity scale physical damage equally. Its native requirement is 30 Strength, but the mandatory two-handed firing stance makes 20 Strength sufficient. It also requires 20 Dexterity.
  • Great arrows: Uses Dragonslayer Arrows and Gough's Great Arrows. Ordinary arrows and crossbow bolts do not fit. The heavy firing sequence and recoil require a stable position away from a ledge.
  • Reinforcement: Reinforce to +5 with Twinkling Titanite. It weighs 10, cannot receive weapon coatings and has no elemental conversion paths.
