While trying to measure bow range I tried two very distant shots:
One in the kiln just after the end of the stairs.
With the hawk ring and gough's bow I managed to hit the 2nd black knight! Not sure about the damage if there was any.
I believe Pharis's bow also connected, but not the composite bow.
The other was by the entrance to queelag's domain
With Pharis's bow I shot the farthest crag spider I could see, the one closet to shiva I think. Again not sure about the damage.
On another occasion I tried from the crow's nest, but the enemy by the waterway was not rendered nor the skeletons for that matter. Seems enemies only appear when you are on the firelink circle.
Lastly a +5 lightning avelyn with lightning bolts can almost match the damage of a +15 composite bow with heavy arrows and 40/40. This was against giant sentinels though.
What shot distance have you managed so far? It seems the problem is actually finding the place...
