Shadow Of The Erdtree Horned Warrior’s Sword Guide

The Horned Warrior’s Sword is a Curved Sword you can only discover in Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. If your build combines a bit of Strength or Dexterity with Faith, this could be a solid weapon to wield against your enemies. Its unique Ash of War makes it particularly fun in combat, and it automatically comes with two swords if you prefer dual-wielding.

Here’s what you need to know about the Horned Warrior’s Sword and where to find it.

Horned Warrior’s Sword stats and features

The Horned Warrior’s Sword has a weight of 5.0 and requires the following stats to wield:

• STR – 11
• DEX – 14
• FAI – 14

The weapon comes equipped with Ash of War: Horn Calling. This Ash of War invokes tangled horns on the sword’s blade before slamming it into the ground. The slam produces piercing horns that damage foes in a small AOE in front of you, making this good for letting groups of smaller baddies know when you’ve had enough of their crap.

The Horned Warrior’s Sword can be upgraded to +10 with Somber Smithing Stones.

Horned Warrior’s Sword item description

The Horned Warrior’s Sword’s item description reads:

“Curved sword of the horned warriors, keepers of the tower.

The ornamental tangled horns allow the blade to serve as a medium for horn-calling.”

Where to find the Horned Warrior’s Sword

You can farm the Horned Warrior’s Sword from any Horned Warrior in the Belurat Town Settlement legacy dungeon or elsewhere in the game. There’s one just up the stairs by the Small Private Altar Site of Grace (accessed along the main path) that makes for especially efficient farming.

However, you can get a guaranteed drop of the Horned Warrior’s Sword by defeating a specific Horned Warrior in the swamp area of the Belurat Town Settlement legacy dungeon. You’ll find him standing on a piece of dry land in the northwestern section of the swamp.

This dual-wielding enemy isn’t any stronger than any other Horned Warrior you’ve encountered in your adventure thus far, so just play smart and try to stay out of the poison as best you can. Once you take him down, you’ll earn a guaranteed Horned Warrior’s Sword as a reward.
