Hand Ballista
To start using a Ballista Bolt, you need to first buy a Ballista Bolt x5. These can be purchased from the Nomadic Merchant in Leyndell or from the Hermit Merchant in the Mountaintops of the Giants, a semi-hidden path south of the Stargazer Ruins. If you don’t have Ballista Bolts yet, you’ll need to make sure you have plenty of Runes. You can purchase a total of five Ballista Bolts for 300 Runes each.
Once you’ve collected the required runes, you’ll be able to craft a Bolt. The basic arrow you need to craft is found in your right-hand ammo slot. Fire arrows require you to hold L2/LT and R2/RT. You can also get a Crafting Kit from Merchant Kale for 300 Runes. You can also obtain Runes from the Cave of Knowledge in Liurnia of the Lakes.
Lion Greatbow
A Lion Greatbow is a unique weapon that scales with Strength and Dexterity. It has an exclusive skill known as Radahn’s Rain. This skill allows you to rain arrows onto your enemies. The lion mane motif is reminiscent of the greatbow used by General Radahn. This weapon was used to kill the Starscourge and is currently being tested for performance analysis.
To craft this weapon, you must have 22 Strength and 18 Dexterity. The Lion Greatbow is more powerful than Light Bows, but it does not do as much damage as Light Bows. A powerful arrow will slice through your enemies. And it only takes a single bolt to upgrade it. Once you have obtained it, you can then craft arrows with it. If you want to level your Lion Greatbow, you can exchange Remembrance with General Radahn.
The Black Bow is found on a rooftop northeast of the Avenue Balcony Site of Grace in Leyndell. You can also find it on a corpse. You can also find it in a chest at Fort Gael. You can also find it after defeating Radahn Knight. You can also find this weapon by searching beneath the stairwell in Atlus. There are several locations in Leyndell where you can find this weapon.
Pulley Crossbow
The Pulley Crossbow is one of the most powerful weapons available in Elden Ring. While other Crossbows fire a single arrow, the Pulley can shoot three bolts at a time. Each bolt deals 65 damage. If three bolts hit their target, they deal 195 damage. Using this weapon is an excellent choice if you need to push enemies back. It can be found near the Craftsman’s Shack in the site of grace.
Compared to other Crossbows, the range of the Pulley Crossbow is slightly shorter. This is due to the fact that the bolts have a slight spread, meaning that they don’t hit their target until they are quite close. As a result, you will run out of bolts very quickly, as it fires three per shot. Luckily, the Pulley Crossbow isn’t as weak as it looks.
Arrow’s Sting Talisman
The Arrow’s Sting Talisman in the Elder Ring gives your arrows more damage, increasing the strength of your arrows and bolts. This item depicts three iron arrows that were carried long ago by soldiers. It is located in the chest on the top of the tower overlooking the Impassable Greatbridge, in Redmane Castle. It is an enchanted item that affects both spells and thrown items.
It is a rare item, but is much easier to find than most talismans in the Elder Ring. You can find it in the Impassable Greatbridge site, which is to the left of Redmane Castle. You can find it in a chest at the top of the tower, and you should not have to fight any bosses in the process. Just watch out for enemies and look for golden brush.
