As opposed to traditional, arena-based bosses, overworld encounters are characterized by the fact that players can get away from them at any moment, or stretch out the fight area by having the enemies chase them. This cheesing tactic applies to nearly every overworld boss, including the already-mentioned Commander O’Neil or Draconic Tree Sentinel (Capital Outskirts) , or even the Divine Beast Dancing Lion in the Shadow of the Erdtree D

At the moment, the consensus seems to be that there are three weapons that compliment a bleed build best: the Rivers of Blood katana, Eleonora’s Poleblade and Mohgwyn’s Sacred Spear . To get the Rivers of Blood , players will need to go to the Church of Repose on the Mountaintops of the Giants . Upon arriving there, a named NPC will invade. Defeat him to claim the katana. Eleonora’s Poleblade can be obtained at Second Church of Marika on Altus Plateau .

This is a rather important invasion as he’ll drop a trick item to help with the boss. Along with that, he’ll also drop his lovely armor set and his weapon. It’s also advisable to fight Bernahl before fighting the Draconic Tree Sentinel guarding Maliketh’s boss room because the Beast Champion Set he drops has good lightning resista

However, Yura’s questline can be quite long compared to a lot of other NPC questlines and will require you to unlock/reach the Altus Plateau, which is unofficially considered a mid-game area in Elden Ring . Once you encounter Yura at the Second Church of Marika in the Altus Plateau and talk to him, the Nagakiba is yours. To complete this questline in full, you’ll need to meet with and help Yura out a number of times, so let’s break down exactly what’s involved in this questline below:

It’s only natural, then, for players to want to emulate such a legendary warrior, and Elden Ring gives players a means of doing just that. His sword, bow, and armor are all unlockable after he is defeated, but there’s a lot more resources that goes into becoming General Radahn than cheap imitation.

For those of you who can resist instant gratification and want to reap more rewards later on, talking to Yura instead of killing him when you encounter him north of Murkwater is the better deal overall. Finishing his questline will not only reward the Nagakiba but will also lead to unlocking other weapons and items such as:

For any of you who have already reached the Mountaintops but missed a step in Yura’s questline, don’t worry, Eleonora will still always invade the first time you go to the Second Church of Marika, and Yura’s Nagakiba can be found sitting wherever you last spoke with Yura as well, be that Murkwater Cave or one of his other locations.

By this point in the game, one will likely be in the low to mid-hundreds as far as their level goes, so there should be a lot of points available for a re-spec. All the weapons typically employed by this build scale on Arcane, so that will be the stat focused most. Assuming a level 130 character, the stats should be something like this:

There’s no chat function in-game, so you’ll need to find a willing trade partner or benefactor using any other method be it the Elden Ring discord, social media, or some other method. As always, the hard part of this method is finding someone willing to part with their Nagakiba as dual-wielding it is quite a popular option for Bleed builds, and many people want two of these katanas.

Once players have made it to Mohgwyn Palace, they’ll want to progress upward until they find the Dynasty Mausoleum Midpoint Site Of Grace. From there, it’s a short journey up the staircase and to the right to ride a large elevator up to where Mohg’s boss room is.

He’s crucial to obtaining the Nagakiba katana and another strong weapon that may or may not become available depending on which among the four methods the players choose. For more details and to better weigh which of the methods yield the best rewards or the least amount of effort, here’s a hands-on guide on obtaining the Nagakiba.

The Queen of the Full Moon Set has a ridiculous headpiece and questionable physical defense, but all that is excused once players use it against mage enemies or dragons. The Queen of the Full Moon armor boasts one of the most consistently resistant stats in the g
