New DLC weapon locations in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree

Weapons are the lifeblood of any Elden Ring build, and you’ll be able to find plenty more in Shadow of the Erdtree, the game’s DLC that takes place in the Shadow Realm of the Lands Between.

In this Shadow of the Erdtree guide, we’ll show you where to find all of the DLC weapons we’ve found so far.

Gravesite Plain weapons

Gravesite Plain is the first major area in the Shadow Realm of the Lands Between, and it’s where you’ll start your journey in Shadow of the Erdtree. There are multiple unique weapons to be found here, from bosses, dungeons, and exploration. Here’s what we’ve found so far.

Beast Claw

The Beast Claw drops for Logur, the Beast Claw, a mini-boss who hangs out in the Gravesite Plain woods.

Head east from your first site of grace and you’ll find Logur wandering around in the woods. If you get close, he’ll attack you. Take him down and you’ll earn his weapons.

Backhand Blade

The Backhand Blade is northeast of the Scorched Ruins and southeast of the Three-Path Cross Site of Grace.

Just off the road, overlooking the river, you’ll see a small mausoleum. Walk up and into the stone pavilion and grab the sword from the pillar of light.

Greatsword of Solitude

In a single-room dungeon called Western Nameless Mausoleum, which is west of the Scorched Ruins in Gravesite Plain, you’ll face the Blackgaol Knight. Take him down and he’ll drop the Greatsword of Solitude.

Bone Bow

The Bone Bow is in Belurat, the castle on the west side of Gravesite Plain. Head through the dungeon until you reach the upper level, past the second site of grace.

Near where you can unlock an elevator shortcut back down to the first level, you’ll find a tower with a broken staircase. Inside this tower are two of the large scorpion spiders. Kill them and loot the body in the room to get the Bone Bow.

Great Katana

In the massive lake in the northern half of Gravesite Plain, where the Ghostflame Dragon lies, you’ll find a dead body floating in the water. Walk up to it and loot it to receive the Great Katana.

Milady

Milady is just outside of Castle Ensis in Gravesite Plain. Across the long bridge near Belurat and then across another small bridge to Castle Ensis, defeat the giant blocking the way and push a bit deeper into the area. On your left, you’ll find a staircase that leads to a large ladder. Climb up.

When you reach the top of the tower, open the chest in front of you to get Milady.

Moonrithyll’s Knight Sword

As you’re making your way through Castle Ensis, you’ll find Moonrithyll, Carian Knight, guarding the true front gate. When you kill them, they’ll drop their big, magical sword, the Moonrithyll Knight Sword.

Smithscript Dagger

Inside the Ruined Forge Lava Intake, a small dungeon to the southeast of Castle Ensis, you’ll find the Smithscript Dagger.

To reach this weapon, you’ll need to fight your way through stone giants and lava blobs until you reach the room with the massive pipe mechanism suspended in the ceiling. On the lower level of this room, tucked up against the wall, you’ll find the Smithscript Dagger on a body.

Anvil Hammer

The Anvil Hammer comes from the Ruined Forge Lava Intake dungeon, which is southeast of Castle Ensis.

Inside, make your way to the top floor and work your way into the room with the massive pipe mechanism. Use the lever to lower the mechanism into the lava and then jump onto it. Follow the pipe all the way to the top to find the Altar, which will give you the Anvil Hammer and an Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone.

Messmer Soldier Spear

A Tarnished collects a new weapon, Messmer Soldier’s Spear, in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

Messmer Soldiers with spears can drop their weapon for you — the Messmer Soldier Spear. You can find these enemies all over the place, often on the roads leading east from Castle Ensis.

Dragon-Hunter’s Great Katana

In the Dragon’s Pit dungeon, which is to the east of Castle Ensis, make your way through until you fight the Ancient Dragon-Man. Kill him and he’ll drop his weapon, the Dragon-Hunter’s Great Katana.

Death Knight’s Twin Axes

West of Castle Ensis, in a dungeon called Fog Rift Catacombs, you’ll encounter the Death Knight. This boss is in the third basement of the dungeon, and will drop the Death Knight’s Twin Axes when you defeat him.

Poisoned Hand

The Poisoned Hand is in the poisoned lake area of Belurat, in western Gravesite Plain. You can access this area via the ladder in the well once you find the Well Depths Key in the upper area of the castle.

Once you enter the poison lake, go right and fight through the bugs. Behind a building near the far wall, in the poison water, you’ll find a corpse. Loot it to get the Poisoned Hand.

Horned Warrior’s Sword

The Horned Warrior’s Sword is located in the poisoned lake area of Belurat, in west Gravesite Plain. To get to the poison lake, grab the Well Depths Key from the upper area in the castle and use it in the Belurat well.

Once you make it to the poison lake, run across the water to your right until you find some solid ground. You’ll find one of the golden horned warriors. Kill them and they’ll drop the Horned Warrior’s Sword.

Deadly Poison Perfume Bottle

You can purchase the Deadly Poison Perfume Bottle from Thiollier for 6,000 Runes in northeastern Gravesite Plain, by the Pillar Path Cross Site of Grace.

Scadu Atlus weapons

Scadu Atlus is the second major region in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. You’ll find several unique weapons in this area. Here’s what we’ve found so far.

Smithscript Spear

In the southeast part of Scadu Atlus, beneath the western lake, you’ll find a small dungeon called Ruined Forge of Starfall Past. Inside, past the site of grace, cross the first bridge. To your left you’ll find a lever. But to your right, you’ll find a corpse that’s holding the Smithscript Spear.

Smithscript Cirque

In the Ruined Forge of Starfall Past dungeon, which is in the southeastern part of Scadu Atlus, you’ll find the Smithscript Cirque in the final room in the dungeon.

Open up the second gate in the forge via the lever and go inside. You’ll find a dead body near a pit and two stone giants. Grab the Smithscript Cirque off the body before or after you deal with the enemies.

Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword

Inside the Ruined Forge of Starfall Past dungeon, which is located in the southeastern part of Scadu Atlus, you’ll find an altar hidden in one of the rooms. Clear out the dungeon and go to the second lever which lifts the second gate. Lower it to the ground and then pull the lever again to raise it. Quickly climb on the gate before it gets too high up and ride it to the second floor platform.

In the next room, interact with the altar to get the Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword.

Black Steel Twinblade

In the army camp in the northern part of Scadu Atlus, you’ll find some Black Knights with a twinblade staff. When you kill them, they have a chance to drop the Black Steel Twinblade.

Messmer Soldier’s Axe

Wherever you defeat a Messmer Soldier wielding an axe, there’s a random chance that it will drop the Messmer Soldier’s Axe for you.

You can find these soldiers all over the Shadow Realm, especially in the Shadow Keep dungeon.

Main-gauche

After killing the Golden Hippopotamus in Shadow Keep, push forward and keep right. You’ll eventually find a room with some Messmer Soldiers and a Black Knight with a twinblade. Dispatch the enemies and move over to the ledge that rests above the door you came through earlier. Loot the body here to get the Main-gauche.

Stone-Sheathed Sword

The Stone-Sheathed Sword is in the Castle Watering Hole area of Scadu Atlus, which you can only reach via a hidden passage in the Shadow Keep waterways. Awaken and destroy the Furnace Golem blocking the entrance to the Ruins of Unte. Once you’re inside, run up to the tombstone on your right and loot it to earn the Stone-Sheathed Sword.

Ansbach’s Longbow

Tooth Whip

The Tooth Whip is located east of Bonny Village, which is in the eastern half of Scadu Atlus. Across the fissure in the middle of town and then across the wooden bridge, you’ll find a small building appropriately named the Whipping Hut. Inside, you’ll find the Tooth Whip on a dead body lying near the wall.

Rabbath’s Cannon

At Rabbath’s Rise, which is in the eastern part of Scadu Atlus, go inside the tower to break the spiritspring seal on the balcony. Then ride the wind up to the staircase on the main tower of the building. At the top of the tower, open the chest to get Rabbath’s Cannon.

Lightning Perfume Bottle

The Lightning Perfume Bottle weapon is south of the Ellac River Downstream Site of Grace. Follow the path down and into the river water until you find a Furnace Golem stomping around. Continue going south until you find a small pond near a group of lightning livestock. You’ll find the Lightning Perfume Bottle in the pond.

Dryleaf Seal

From the Recluses’ River Downstream Site of Grace, in eastern Scadu Atlus, follow the left path to the other side of the river, on the cliff. Defeat the birds and then drop off the left side of the rock to land on a small platform near a gravestone. The Dryleaf Seal will be sitting in the mud.

Rakshasa’s Great Katana

In the Eastern Nameless Mausoleum mini dungeon, which is east of the Recluses’ River Downstream Site of Grace, you’ll find a boss named Rakshasa waiting for you. When you take her down, she’ll drop Rakshasa’s Great Katana for you.

Barbed Staff-Spear

The Barbed Staff-Spear is Jori, Elder Inquisitor’s weapon of choice. To claim the weapon for yourself, kill Jori at the end of the Darklight Catacombs dungeon in southeast Scadu Atlus.

Abyssal Woods weapons

The Abyssal Woods is a land of horrors in the Shadow Realm, and can be found in the east, far beneath Scadu Atlus. You’ll find a handful of weapons here to use on your journey.

Madding Hand

To the left of the Woodland Trail Site of Grace, follow the trail until you happen across an NPC enemy called the Madding Hand. Kill it and it’ll the Madding Hand, for you to use as a weapon.

Frenzyflame Perfume Bottle

The Frenzyflame Perfume Bottle is located deep in the Abyssal Wood, in the Abandoned Church, which is south of the wood’s entrance, near where you get the Abyssal Woods map fragment.
