Longbow is a Weapon in Dark Souls and Dark Souls Remastered.
Large bow. Projectile weapon for experienced hunters.
Equip arrows to use. Hold bow and press L1 or LB to aim. Aim for heads of humanoid foes. Press L2/R2 or LT/RT to change type of arrows."
How to Get / Where to Find the Longbow
- A ledge in Darkroot Garden, on the path leading down to Darkroot Basin. The corpse it is found on also contains the Hunter armor and some arrows.
- Drops from Undead Crystal Archer (2% chance - the Duke's Archives)
Notes
- Give to Frampt to receive 50 souls.
- This bow is classified as a Long bow. It fires slower than short bows.
- The Long Bow is a larger version of the short bow, has slightly higher stat requirements to wield. Very useful for luring things out and killing strong foes from a safe distance.
- Fun Fact: when you draw the bow the string does not actually get pulled back (xbox 360 confirmed ) (the bow is fully drawn in PTDE)
- Demon's souls version: Different in apperance and has a range of 60 instead of 50.

Unable to upgrade the LongBow past +10.
I'm at Andre, I've given him the Very Large Ember from New Londo Ruins.
I went to Modify Equipment and still don't see the Longbow in the Standard Tab.
I checked to make sure I didn't give it any other enhancements. I even upgraded another longbow that was brand new.
None of my weapons seem to go past +10.
They should be in the Modify option so I can choose an enhancement or standard.
Is this a glitch?

It's listed on wiki as A grade DEX scaling, but is S grade in-game. Is this a game or wiki side discrepency?

I've also gotten the Longbow dropped off of the giant skeletons in Tomb of Giants, which isn't listed in the "How to get / Where to find" section.

Probably a long shot at this time, but has anyone infused the bow with magic/fire/lightening/etc? is it any good? giving up the s scaling? does the arrow gain the property?
even unupgraded this thing is a godsend for dealing with the toxic blowdart guys in blighttown. just shoot the little creeps in the head from outside their aggro ring and profit
