You Probably Missed All Of Elden Ring’s Rarest Weapons

To get this one, you’ll need to travel to Dominula, Windmill Village, a flowery outpost in the Atlus Plateau populated by creepy dancing cultists. There are two enemies in the village dressed in tattered blue robes that carry the dagger, and those are the only two enemies worth killing here. You could fight the other cultists, which might drop either the Celebrant’s Cleaver or Celebrant’s Rib-Rake, but it’s the dagger you want for the rune gains. (It’s worth noting the other Celebrant’s weapons also give you runes.) While the Celebrant’s Sickle does have a 0.5 percent drop rate, meaning you’ll spend a while farming for it, there’s a Site of Grace just in front of the outpost. So, all you need to do is hit that Site of Grace, kill the two blue-clad cultists, and repeat until you get it.

A Hot Sword Made Of Magma

Next is the Magma Blade, a curved sword with a one percent drop rate. It’s not that strong, only dealing 96 points of physical attack damage. However, its paltry attack stat is made up for by the sword’s flashy weapon skill: Magma Shower, which spits out massive pools of lava onto the floor to deal continuous ticks of fire damage to an enemy. That alone makes it a pretty worthwhile weapon to get, even if it’s a nuisance to actually fight against.

You’re gonna have to make your way to the dreaded legacy dungeon Volcano Manor to find this blade. After you’ve been transported to the lava-riddled location and make your way to the Temple of Eiglay’s Site of Grace, you then just gotta search for those man-serpents with the glowing sword in their right hand. The man-serpents aren’t particularly hard, but because they hold the Magma Blade, they also make use of the Magma Shower weapon skill. So, be careful when fighting them lest you get burnt. And again, if you don’t get the Magma Blade on the first few attempts, then all you have to do is respawn at the Site of Grace and try, try, try again.

A Two-For-One Set Of Noble Swords

Finally, the Noble’s Estoc and Noble’s Slender Sword are two weapons that can be found in the same area, but because they both have a 0.5 percent drop rate, you’re likely to find one before the other. Starting with the Noble’s Estoc, this thrusting sword deals 104 physical attack damage and comes paired with the lunging weapon skill Impaling Thrust. Moving on, the Noble’s Slender Sword is considered the longest straight sword in Elden Ring, has a physical attack damage stat of 101 points, and is equipped with the fast-slashing Square Off weapon skill. In truth, both weapons are mid, but their low drop rate is what makes them something of a collector’s item.

To get these swords, you gotta go back to Limgrave. Yeah, that’s right, you will be returning to the early areas to farm these weapons. There are other spots you find them in, such as the Raya Lucaria Academy legacy dungeon or the depressing Caelid region, but the Waypoint Ruins is the best farming place. A little ways off from that Site of Grace is a Troll-pulled carriage with some godrick soldiers and wandering nobles behind it. As you might’ve guessed by the weapons’ names, it’s the nobles you’re killing here and that’s it. So, beat their asses, collect what they drop, and repeat this process until you get the blades. It’ll take a while, so be prepared.

These are just a small smattering of rare weapons you can find in Elden Ring. There are a ton of others to add to your bag, including the Gilmir Glintstone Staff and Watchdog’s Greatsword. Keep your eyes peeled as you navigate the Lands Between. You never know what you’ll come across.
