Source: IGGMIn Realm of Shadow in Elden Ring DLC, you will meet Freyja who carries a Greatsword with her. After you complete the quest she gives you, you can get her Greatsword called Freyja’s Greatsword, and you can also create an optimal build for it.
The skill of Freyja’s Greatsword is Spinning Slash, but if you want better Redmane Skills, you can change it. In this guide, we will show you how to get this powerful Greatsword and what kind of build you should build around it. This way, its maximum effectiveness can be brought into play.
How To Get Freyja’s Greatsword?
As I just said, Freyja’s Greatsword is related to Redmane Freyja, and there are currently two ways to get it. The first is to let Redmane Freyja get Freyja’s letter. In return, she will give you Golden Lion Shield.
From this location, head to Enir-Ilim, where you will fight Leda and her allies with Freyja. After the battle, you can loot this powerful weapon from Leda’s corpse.
Second, if you don’t want to spend time completing her questline, you can continue to complete other quests or battles in the DLC, as you will still fight Leda and her allies in the later games. After the battle, you cannot loot anything from her corpse except Elden Ring Runes.
You need to return to the seventh floor warehouse in Shadow Keep, where Freyja and Freyja’s Greatsword are waiting for you.
Best Talismans
Unlike Talismans required for other weapons, in this build, you need to focus only on the offensive power of Freyja’s Greatsword itself. Among the many Talismans, Shard of Alexander is to increase the damage of Ash of War Savage Lion’s Claw of this weapon by 15%.
Claw Talisman is also very useful when you use Greatsword to jump attack, because it increases your mobility. In addition, Two-Handed Sword Talisman is also very necessary, because it increases your attack power by 15% when you use Freyja’s Greatsword with both hands. For these Talismans, you can choose one or two to equip. If you have to choose one or two, my suggestion is to choose Claw Talisman and Two-Handed Sword Talisman.
These Talismans are located far away from each other. For example, Shard of Alexander is obtained after you complete Iron Fist in Alexander’s questline, Two-Handed Sword Talisman is found in a treasure chest in Temple Town Ruins, Claw Talisman is found on top of a watchtower in Stormveil Castle, and Two-Headed Turtle Talisman is in a treasure chest near Rivermouth Cave.
So you can spend some time and Elden Ring Runes to find these Talismans before building Freyja’s Greatsword build, because they will be useful not only in this build but also in other builds.
Best Armor
Although you can get a Freyja’s Armor from Freyja, it has no passive effect to increase the effect of Redmane Skills or the damage of the weapon itself, so it is useless. The best choice is Rakshasa Set, because each piece of armor in it increases your damage by 2%.
But it should be noted here that it also increases the damage you take by the same percentage. Increasing the damage to the enemy is more valuable than the negative effects you take, because those negative effects can be reduced by Talismans and Crystal Tears.
Best Attribute Data Allocation
For attribute data allocation, Vigor and Strength are both essential. And since Freyja’s Greatsword only scales in Strength, you only need to invest a little in this attribute. Intelligence and Arcane can be ignored because these two attributes are not suitable for this build.
Faith cannot be too much, because you only need a moderate amount of Faith to use Golden Vow. For Mind and Endurance, you can maintain a balance between the two, and whether you prefer one to the other depends on how often you use Ash of War Savage Lion’s Claw.
If you have already chosen the data for each attribute, you can’t Respec in Realm of Shadow, so you must reflect. But there is a way to modify it. You need to go to Raya Lucaria Academy and defeat Queen of Full Moon Rennala in exchange for Larval Tear. You can use this Larval Tear to help you Respec, but still be aware that this Elden Ring Item is limited.
The following is the distribution information of each attribute, for reference only.
- Vigor: 60
- Mind: 40
- Endurance: 30
- Strength: 85
- Dexterity: 20
- Intelligence: 9
- Faith: 25
- Arcane: 10
Best Wondrous Flask Of Physick
There are a lot of Crystal Tears options in Wondrous Flask DLC that are perfect for Freyja’s Greatsword builds. For example, Greenburst Crystal Tear can help you increase the speed of Endurance recovery - 15 points per second for 3 minutes, which is very important for this build because using Ash of War and charged heavy attacks in combat will consume a lot of Endurance.
Similarly, Crystal Tear and Two-Headed Turtle Talisma can also achieve this effect. If you want to reduce the damage, you take a little or even cancel it, you can choose Opaline Hardtear, because it can cancel 15% of all damage types for 3 minutes after you use it. Or if you want your Poise to be a little stronger, you can also equip Leaden Hardtear.
Best Incantations
Because Freyja’s Greatsword only increases the damage of Redmane Skills, and does not increase the damage of any Sorceries or Incantations, you can equip some Incantations when you are facing some spell damage that you cannot resist.
In addition, the armor provided by Freyja does not have any passive effects. The best Incantations are Supportive Incantations, because they can protect you in some regular battles.
Or you can choose to stack Golden Vow and Flame, Grant me Strength, which will increase your damage and gain some damage offset in a short time.
The above are some of the options you should choose for the build of Freyja’s Greatsword. If you encounter better build items in the game, you can come to IGGM Discord to communicate with other players and learn from other players.
