Description

The Ruins Greatsword scales primarily with Strength and to a lesser extent Intelligence and also has additional magic damage.

Lore

Originally rubble from a ruin which fell from the sky, this surviving fragment was honed into a weapon. One of the legendary armaments. The ruin it came from crumbled when struck by a meteorite, as such this weapon harbords its destructive power.

Location

The Ruins Greatsword can be found at Redmane Castle, in southeastern Caelid. You’ll need to defeat Starscourge Radahn and make sure you have exhausted Witch Hunter Jerren dialogue before you can pass through the fog wall near the Chamber Outside the Plaza Site of Grace. Beyond the fog wall you’ll encounter the Crucible Knight & Misbegotten Warrior boss fight, and after defeating them you’ll obtain the greatsword as a reward.
