Rare Weapon 1: Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword & Where to Find
The Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword is a new legendary colossal sword introduced in the Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. It has a great skill that lunges forward very fast. And for a colossal sword is one of the best advantages you can have against anybody you're fighting.
How to obtain it:
- You would just have to unlock access to the Scadu Altus region by defeating the boss at the end of the Castle Ensis legacy dungeon.
- From the Highroad Cross site of grace in Scadu Altus, head north along the road and then take a right turn to go west.
- Continue south, passing a small lake on your right, until you reach the Ruined Forge of Starfall Past dungeon. Enter through the small hole in the wall.
- Inside the dungeon, you'll need to navigate through a series of levers and platforms to reach the second floor. This involves pulling levers to lower gates and raise platforms.
- Then head over to site of grace at the Ruined Forge of Starfall.
- On the second floor, you'll find an anvil-shaped altar. The Colossal great sword will be located right here along with an Ancient Dragon Stone.
- This is the location where Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword is at and this is amazing when it comes to the actual skill that you utilize where you plunge forward, you can really get people off guard, making it very useful and combat. But it requires a lot of strength around 35, 10 dexterity, and 15 intelligence.
Rare Weapon 2: Velveet Sword of St.Trina & Where to Find
It introduces a status effect that was never here before and that's what makes it so rare, it applies new Eternal sleep debuff only introduced after the expansion was released. And it reminds us of the summon back in the day known as Dolores the Sleeping Arrow Puppet, famously known for utilizing it specifically as a strategy to defeat the godkin boss fight where was that fat boss in the skin boss, they both were attacking you at the same time and it was just difficult to beat them. But when you summon that puppet you would just put them to sleep and you can go to town. This weapon can completely incapacitate enemies, making it a powerful tool for both PvE and PvP encounters.
How to obtain it:
- It’s located in the Stone Coffin Fisher, which you can access after progressing through the shadow key.
- You have to descend into the Stone Coffin Fisher at the tip of the Southern Shore region.
- The drop is pretty far, but once you get down there, there will be a few sights of Grace, you have to pass some of these enemies to get to them.
- If you are through a cave, the weapon will be sitting there right for you to grab.
- This also has the multifaceted stack requirements needed to wield this, 10 strength, 12 dexterity, and 14 intelligence. Usually weapons either have dexterity and strength or intelligence and faith. But when you have multifaceted stat requirements, the weapon usually is special and it could be really potent when it comes to the Eternal Sleep.
Rare Weapon 3: Euporia & Where to Find
It's a twin blade, it is so cool especially when you dual wield them, just look at the move set it's not only rare but it's awesome. And the reason why this one is rare in particular is because you can only get this near the end of the game right before you fight Radahn. Euporia's blades are known to Glow after dealing damage and its weapon skill is a vortex and it lets you spin the blade like a helicopter.
How to obtain:
- You'll need to reach in game in order to get it and you have to follow this specific path, the Spiral Rise.
- You have to drop down multiple areas, similar to getting a fingerprint Shield back in the day and some other items, your parkour skills don't have to be as on point as that because it's pretty simple.
- Once again, the stat requirements here are pretty crazy, 16 strength, 16 dexterity, and 24 faith. It might be one of the most difficult to find being that you have to reach in game.
Rare Weapon 4: Greatsword of Radahn & Where to Find
This weapon is specifically rare because you have to beat Radahn in order to get it. But the skill is so cool, this deals holy damage and you can dual with these great swords. You have to get used to the slow play style, because if you get hit somebody with this stuff, then it deals insane damage.
How to obtain it:
- Defeat Red Wolf of Radagon: This challenging boss awaits in the late game of the DLC.
- Transfigure the Remembrance: Once defeated, the Red Wolf of Radagon's Remembrance can be transfigured at the Roundtable Hold to obtain this powerful greatsword.
Rare Weapon 5: Rakshasa’s Great Katana & Where to Find
Katanas are usually fast and the move sets are slick like the Rivers of Blood, but when you got this Great Katana is pretty slow, but it's not as slow as great swords and it's fluid, so it's smooth and if it hits you, the damage is insane. It stands out because it requires a lot of dexterity to wield and some strength.
How to obtain it:
- The way that you find this may be familiar to you because it's on the way to Darklight Catacombs.
- Instead of following the main path to the Catacombs, take a detour to the left.
- If you go this way, then just ahead, you'll see the Mausoleum, you'll have to fight Rakshasa.
- Once you do defeat that boss, you'll not only get the great Katana but you'll get the armor as well, wherein the damage scales an incremental percentage based on how many pieces you have equipped. But it's a double-edged sword because it'll also damage you for the amount of armor you have on. So if you're a risk taker, then you don't mind wearing the armor, but other than that you can wear whatever you want.
