Curved Swords have always been a staple in Elden Ring, and since the early days of the game, there have been countless players who have liked this weapon. Curved Swords are often linked to Dexterity and are often proportional, making them ideal for use when you are using Bleed builds and swift attacks.

Shadow of the Erdtree DLC successfully continues this tradition, and also adds some new weapons to Tarnished’s arsenal, allowing players to better choose different weapons according to different combat situations.

This guide will introduce you to some very useful Curved Swords in Shadow of the Erdtree, and you can choose Curved Swords you want in battle at your discretion.

Dancing Blade Of Ranah

Dancing Blade of Ranah is one of the best Curved Swords in Shadow of the Erdtree, as it scales with your Dexterity. If you want to rely on this attribute to play in the DLC, then Dancing Blade Of Ranah will be a good choice.

You can get this powerful weapon by killing Dancer of Ranah in Southern Nameless Mausoleum. But it should be noted that Dancing Blade Of Ranah cannot be enhanced or infused with Ashes of War, and can only be upgraded with Somber Smithing Stones.

When you use Dancing Blade Of Ranah, you can actually feel it from the name. Its skill - Unending Dance allows you to initiate a dance-like action and swing the blade while bouncing. When you are surrounded by enemies, you can use it to protect yourself from being approached by enemies.

Spirit Sword

Spirit Sword is also a new Curved Sword in Shadow of the Erdtree. It looks more powerful than the regular Curved Sword, and in addition to Dexterity, it is also related to Intelligence and even Strength. It has multiple uses and is very cost-effective!

In addition, this sword is said to be a medium for communicating with spirits, so in addition to Physical Damage, it can also cause considerable Magic Damage. When you switch from an enemy that cannot resist physical damage to an enemy that is vulnerable to magic damage, you don’t need to change weapons, just use Spirit Sword.

Spirit Sword can be found in Cerulean Coast, specifically between Cerulean Coast West and Cerulean Coast Site of Grace. If you see several half-people areas during your exploration, then you are not wrong, which means you are not far from the location of the Spirit Sword.

Like the other Curved Swords in this guide, the Spirit Sword cannot be enhanced or infused with Ashes of War, and can only be upgraded with Somber Smithing Stones.

Falx

Falx is also mainly adjusted by Strength and Dexterity. It is a pair of Curved Swords that can be used in both hands at the same time. When Hornsent invades Rauh Ancient Ruins Site of Grace, you need to defeat it and you will pick up Falx from its corpse.

If you like dual-wielding the scimitars of Warrior profession in the DLC and want to try different weapons, then Falx can perfectly match your requirements. Although Falx does not cause Elemental Damage to the enemy, its Physical Damage of up to 107 can make the enemy unable to parry.

Its special skill, Revenger’s Blade, allows you to sprint forward a long distance and slash the enemy in the shape of an X. In addition, Falx paired Curved Swords has a passive effect that allows the enemy to accumulate bleeding unconsciously, which is very timesaving and labor-saving. Similarly, it cannot be enhanced.

Horned Warrior’s Sword

Horned Warrior’s Sword also adjusts its damage primarily through Strength and Dexterity, followed by Faith, and is one of the most complete Curved Swords in Shadow of the Erdtree.

This weapon is usually found in the hands of Horned Warriors in the Lands of Shadow. You can choose to kill Horned Warrior in Belurat Tower Settlement swamp to obtain this weapon, or directly obtain it from any Horned Warrior who can wield this weapon. It doesn’t hurt.

Like other Curved Swords, it cannot be enhanced or infused with Ashes of War. However, since this is a paired weapon and is also the most powerful part of the build, you only need to find one to get a pair of Horned Warrior’s Swords.

Its skill is also very special. When you use Horn Calling, you will drive the sword into the ground and summon a very powerful and piercing horn in front of the enemy, which is very suitable for temporarily incapacitating enemies when they get too close.

Horned Warrior’s Greatsword

Speaking of some very powerful Curved Greatswords, we have to mention Horned Warrior’s Greatsword, which is much larger and heavier than the regular non-Greatsword version. This means that you need more Strength to pick it up, especially when using it one-handed.

Compared to similar weapons, Horned Warrior’s Greatsword does not require farming, and only requires you to defeat Wind-Aspected Horned Warrior at the end of Enir Ilim. Although you can take it to the exchange to exchange for 200 Elden Ring Runes, it is better to keep it.

Because not only does it have powerful special skills, especially when used with special amulets such as Millicent’s Prosthesis, it can unleash a lot of damage and even destroy the most powerful enemies, but it also scales equally with Strength, Dexterity, and Faith, making you a very balanced state.

Freyja’s Greatsword

The last one comes up, but it is definitely not the least important. Freyja’s Greatsword is mainly related to Strength, and secondarily to Dexterity. You will encounter Redmane Freya carrying it many times when exploring Lands of Shadow, but to obtain it, you need to defeat Freyja directly in Enir Ilim.

Freyja’s Greatsword weighs 14 and requires your Strength attribute to reach 25, but its Physical Damage is as high as 146, which is very suitable for players who like Strength builds. They usually want to have a heavy weapon with good attributes and a weapon with 360-degree coverage. Freyja’s Greatsword will meet all their requirements.
