How to Allocate Stat Points for Ranged Builds in Elden Ring

Main stats and items will change slightly based on how many weapon options the player wants. Players will want the minimum strength and dexterity to hold all their primary and secondary weapons. From there, the main combat stat will depend on an individual weapon’s scaling.

 

Standard longbows favor dexterity, and Elden Ring greatbows use more strength. If wielding either, players will want to get the corresponding strength stat of 40 and get the most out of any remaining extra points. Crossbows begin with no scaling, making additional strength or dexterity pointless investments. Instead, players will need to invest in mental stats, i.e., intelligence, faith, and arcane, to wield any desired magic skills. All other remaining points should go into vigor and endurance.

 

Best Weapons for Ranged Builds in Elden Ring

For Mighty Shot Archer Build, we will use Great Knife, Shortbow, and Longbow. The Great knife is for up close and personal encounters, while the bows are your go-to weapon. Furthermore, the quickstep on the Great Knife means you’ll be very mobile and can create distance to shoot your arrows easily.

 

Starting off the build, you’ll have the Shortbow and Great Knife from the Bandit class. You’ll want to stock up on many arrows when you can, as running out of arrows will set you back some damage.

 

Once you get the Longbow, you can alternate between that and the short bow. You can switch between a long and short bow depending upon whether you want to do more damage at a slower rate with a longbow at longer ranges or quick damage at shorter ranges with a short bow.

 

Longbow

The most basic of the basic bows. And there's nothing wrong with that. The Longbow is the pick for the swordsman who wants some range in their combat. While the damage leaves some room for improvement, the weapon skill, Mighty Shot, can deal some serious damage to enemies. In addition, you can change the Ash of War to something else if you would like.

 

Though overall, the main issue with the Longbow is the same with most of the Bow class weapons in that they take a while to ready an arrow and fire. This can leave you open to damage and might be a dealbreaker. The Samurai class starts with the Longbow, but it can also be purchased from the Twin Maiden Husks in the Roundtable Hold.

 

Lion Greatbow

Still widely considered to be the best ranged weapon in Elden Ring, the Lion Greatbow can be obtained using Radahn's Remembrance. Boasting an incredibly high damage output of 120, the Lion Greatbow is one of the hardest-hitting bows in the game, especially when used in conjunction with Radahn's Spear Greatarrows. The Lion Greatbow is also capable of unleashing devastation with its Radahn's Rain weapon skill, which fires an unrelenting barrage of arrows toward an enemy like the boss does to the player in his own battle.

 

In order to build the best ranged builds in Elden Ring, players should level up their characters fast and find powerful weapons or gears instead. And players can also Buy Elden Ring Runes to upgrade the overall stats of characters, which enhance their capacities in battle against enemies.
