The weapon art provides you with a piecing arrow that does decent in combat compared to the other bows in the game, but it’s just the same animation as a regular longbow with no visual effects in play. But after fighting Aldrich and transposing the soul, unfortunately the Darkmoon Longbow fails to deliver. If you’re like me, odds are that you were expecting an extremely unique animation when using the Darkmoon Longbow in combat with Moonlight Arrows that lets you release a blue, magic-infused arrow. If used with Moonlight Arrows the bow is also supposed to receive a bonus as well. However, this bow’s weapon art allows you to infuse an arrow with Darkmoon essence which gives it additional magic damage along with the ability to piece shields. Like other longbows in the game, the Darkmoon Longbow can be used from a great distance for a decent amount of damage along with heavier arrows in the game.
Wielded by the Darkmoon Gwyndolin, the Darkmoon Longbow is a beautiful weapon that you receive after transposing the Soul of Aldrich along with 5,000 souls upon defeating the boss Aldrich, Devourer of Gods.
Sure, some of these weapons are actually quite powerful if used correctly, but there were more than a few that felt short of expectations once I picked them up from Ludleth. Typically considered some of the most powerful items in the game, it surprised me that during my entire play-through of Dark Souls 3 I had only managed to realize that they were available to me right before I completed my game. In Dark Souls 3 after defeating a boss, you’ll pick up a named boss soul which can then be transposed by Ludleth of Courland into new equipment for your character. But more importantly, I remembered that I was still sitting on over a dozen boss souls that I hadn’t converted to weapons, armor or other items. I remembered killing the dragon on the High Wall of Lothric with a hundred wooden arrows at level 15 too, as well as fighting against Aldrich nearly 30 times before finally beating him with a loud scream of victory. I learned a lot of the mechanics of the game, about where items were hidden and about the optimal paths to progress through to get them.
As I was about to finish up my first play-through of Dark Souls 3 last night, I naturally had a few flashbacks across my entire journey through the game.
