InElden Ring, legendary weapons belong to a special class of armaments that oftenfeature unique designs and skills. Sometimes, these weapons also include unique lore that helps players piece together the game’s mysterious plot. While the base game includesnine unique legendary weapons, theShadow of the ErdtreeDLC introduces four more.
These new legendary weapons are hidden in secret areas and two of them require solving a challenging puzzle. If you wish to acquire all four legendary weapons in theShadow of the Erdtreeexpansion, the following guide will prove invaluable.
Unique Skill
White Light Charge
TheAncient Meteoric Ore Greatswordcan beobtained from the furnace in the Ancient Ruins of Starfall Past. The ruins are locatedsouthwest of the Moorth Ruins Site of Grace. The legendary greatsword scales well with strength and dexterity.
Besides the incredible raw damage output, the weapon’s unique skill,White Light Charge, also deals magic damagewithout requiring intelligence or faith. Since the weapon can be found relatively early into the expansion, you can rely on it for the majority of the DLC after upgrading it to +10.
Darkness
TheSword of Darknessis alegendary straight swordthat you may acquire after finding theStone Sheathed Swordin one of the three unique altars in the Shadow Realm. You can find these three altars in the following locations:
Once you have the Stone Sheathed Sword in your inventory, you canvisit the second altar to transform the weapon into the Sword of Darkness. Activating the weapon’s unique skill causes the Tarnished to raise the weapon in the air, releasing a gust of darkness that swivels around,dealing holy damage to all enemies caught in it while negating holy damage to self.
Light
TheSword of Lightis also a legendary straight sword that can be acquired in the same way you obtain the Sword of Darkness. Once you’ve transformed the Stone Sheathed Sword into the Sword of Darkness,you must visit the final remaining altar in the Realm of Shadows, and interact with it to transform the Sword of Darkness into the Sword of Light.
The weapon comes equipped with a unique skill called Light. When executing the skill, the Tarnished raises the weapon in the air, following which,rays of blinding light emanate from the weapon. Using the weapon skill also temporarily boosts the Tarnished’s holy attacks.
you’re able to either obtain the Sword of Darkness or Sword of Light in one playthrough of Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. To obtain both versions of the weapon, you’ll need to replay the DLC at least a second time.
Euporia Vortex
The legendaryEuporiaTwinblade’s lore states that it is a secret treasure of the Enir-Ilim. The blades arelocated in a difficult-to-reach area, accessible only after you complete a major event towards the end of the game.
The Euporia Twinblade deals holy damage, and when it strikes enemies, the blades emit a radiant glow, boosting its holy damage output. With the blades charged, executing the weapon’s unique skill causes the Tarnished to spin the twinblade in front of them, releasing a series of holy projectiles that deal damage to enemies at range.
You cannot charge Euporia’s blades when striking Those Who Live in Dead.
