The Lion Greatbow is a Greatbow in Elden Ring. It is a late-game find.

The Lion Greatbow is the greatbow of black iron wielded by General Radahn, decorated with a lion mane motif and imbued with the gravitational power of the Starscourge. It is obtained by trading the Remembrance of the Starscourge with Enia at the Roundtable Hold, instead of the Starscourge Greatsword. While it is held in either hand, Radahn's Spears deal 20% more damage, and holding one in each hand stacks the bonus. Its unique skill, Radahn's Rain, fires a sudden flurry of arrows into the sky from a low stance so that they pour down on foes like rain, and it is strongest against large bosses that take most of the volley. It scales with Strength and Dexterity at D, and an even split of the two gives it more damage than pure Strength.

Stats

The Lion Greatbow is the lightest greatbow at 9.5, and Radahn's Rain fires a flurry of arrows into the sky for 32 FP, which suits large bosses. Equipping it raises Radahn's Spear great arrows by 20%, and one in each hand stacks that bonus, so it is the greatbow for a build that leans on those spears.

Skill

Radahn's Rain costs 32 FP. The wielder crouches into a low archery stance and looses a great arrow into the sky, which pours down on the locked-on target as a rain of arrows. Without a lock-on the arrows fall on the wielder instead. Each volley uses only one great arrow, and Radahn's Spears gain extra damage from the Lion Greatbow. It is exclusive to this weapon.

"Archery skill performed from a low stance. Ready the bow and fire a sudden flurry of arrows up into the sky. The arrows will pour on foes like rain."

Suggested Build

A ranged weapon for large bosses and PvP, firing Radahn's Spears for the damage bonus and opening with Radahn's Rain for wide area damage and stance breaks.

Stats	Strength and Dexterity about 45 each or higher, Vigor 40 to 50, Endurance 24 or more, Mind 15 to 20
Affinity	Cannot be infused; it keeps its own scaling.
Talismans	Arrow's Sting Talisman, Shard of Alexander, Arrow's Reach Talisman
Pairs With	Radahn's Spear, A second Lion Greatbow or a Golem Greatbow

Notes

"Greatbow of black iron wielded by General Radahn. Decorated with a lion motif. Imbued with gravitational power of the Starscourge, when used along with Radahn's Spear, it becomes a true weapon of a champion."
