The Hallowed Bow is one of the first bows you can get in Lords of the Fallen. Right after the Scourged Sister Delyth boss, there's a cave with an umbral flowerbed. You'll find the bow near this flowerbed on the platform on the opposite side.

Proselyte Sword

The Proselyte Sword is one of the best Long Sword's that you can get early on in the game. Sadly, the catch for this sword is that it's a random drop.

In order to get the Proselyte Sword, you'll have to farm for a bit either near Redcopse Village or in front of Pieta's Boss Arena. All you have to do is fight against the Proselyte in that area and hope that they drop their sword once they're defeated.

Pieta's Sword

You can obtain Pieta's Sword by battling one of the first bosses in Lords of the Fallen, Pieta... duh. Once you've defeated her, you can obtain this weapon. It's a great Short Sword that has a bit more range than other Short Swords.
