Lords of the Fallen Best Crossbow & Location - LOTF Harrower Dervla’s Crossbow Guide
The category of this weapon isn't going to be your regular sword or spear instead it is going to be a crossbow. This isn't going to be an ordinary crossbow where you do one shot and you run away because it takes half an hour to reload the weapon. The best Lords of the Fallen weapon is the Harrower Dervla’s Crossbow. And it is the best crossbow in the entire game. First things first, this isn't a single-shot weapon so it shoots multiple bolts and it is insanely overpowered. The only one worth using is the explosive bolt. It turns this weapon into a Demolisher. Not only it does do insane damage to a single enemy but because is an explosive bolt, it does area of effect. So you can shoot multiple enemies, you can basically shoot in a group of them. They will all take damage and will probably most likely die.

Best Tips To Defeat Harrower Dervla In LOTF
She is weak to fire damage, so bring pyro spells/weapons if possible. Fire attacks will do extra damage.
Dervla is fast and can combo attacks quickly. Don't get too greedy with your offense and focus on dodging/blocking her strikes.
Her crossbow has a long range, so try to stay mid-close range to pressure her. Roll behind pillars for cover from bolts.
When she switches to melee, watch for her spinning flail attack. It has long range and can catch rolls. Sidestep or create distance.
In phase 2, skulls will fly at you periodically. Destroy them with a well-timed attack to gain health/mana back.
Her phase 2 melee combos are more intense. Dodge away from flurries and look for openings to counter.
If you have summons, use them as distractions while you attack Dervla from behind.
Upgrade your weapon as much as possible for higher damage output.
Save consumables like health pots for her second half, as she gets more aggressive.
Be patient. Look for patterns in her attacks and punish openings rather than spamming attacks.
