Great Épée is a Heavy Thrusting Sword in Elden Ring. The Great Épée scales primarily with Strength and Dexterity and is a good Weapon for combat where thrusting will benefit the fighter. Its extra weight packs some extra physical attack power and still allows players to use this weapon with a shield. 

 

Large rapier featuring a thin, sharp blade. 
Commonly used in life or death duels.

Like its smaller counterparts, its made for thrusting attacks, and can be used while guarding with a shield. 

 

Where to Find Great Épée in Elden Ring

The Great Épée weapon can be found at the following location:

  • Go due east from the Agheel Lake South site of grace, and up the hill with gravestones. It's in a chest near two Kaiden Sellswords. It's next to the green and yellow banner, in front of the right most yellow canopy tent. [Elden Ring Map here]

 

Elden Ring Great Épée Notes & Tips

  • Weapon Skill: Impaling Thrust
  • This weapon can be infused with Ashes of War.
  • Great Épée can be upgraded by using Smithing Stones
  • Holding R2 to full will stagger most foes, if done multiple times it will stagger even most bosses. 
  • Holding the dodge button while charging an R2 attack will change the R2 attack into a backwards feint. This backwards feint attack can combo directly into a running R1 attack.
  • If leaning into a Strength Build, this is the optimal weapon in it's category, for other stat distributions the Godskin Stitcher leads to better results. Not factoring in the difference of the R2s, only stat scaling.
  • Sell Value:  er runes 13 100 Runes.
  • NOTE: As of Patch 1.08, the speed of  Heavy Thrusting Swords crouching attacks has been reduced. Also the stagger caused by double-handed Heavy Thrusting Swords jumping attacks has been reduced. And finally, Poise damage has also been reduced, but only for PVP.

The Great Épée can be infused with Ashes of War. Click below for a list of all possible Ashes of War that can be applied to the heavy thrusting sword.

Elden Ring Heavy Thrusting Swords

      In PvE? Weird weapon. Very niche. Compared to a spear it actually combos faster. Very high motion value for the guard counter, 150 whereas for greatspears and spears it's 125. So like 25% more damage from the AR.

      This also behaves a lot more like a sword than a spear, so it has access to a pretty unique set of ashes for a great shield build scenario.

        You may think this is an elegant, refined weapon, but it's actually just a Zorro-styled bonk stick, best used in STR builds that want to poise break. That's because the jumping R2s have very short recovery, and charged R2s are a far-reaching sweeping motion that hits enemies 180 degrees around you and two arm's lengths away. Genuinely, this might be one of the best PvE weapons in the game. Being a Heavy Thrusting Sword, I assume it's also pretty good in PvP, but I don't play it much.

          The ability to attack from behind a shield with such a high-damage weapon trivializes some otherwise-difficult late game bossfights when used in combination with a good greatshield. Allows you to just stay close and wail on certain bosses without rolling at all until you need to back off and heal up. The same ability also makes it excellent at clearing certain trash mobs that can otherwise be very annoying. The only major weakness is that it's frustrating to use against very large "attack the legs" enemies like dragons because the R1 and jump attack are hard to aim without locking on.

            The lightest weapon that allows you to use Troll's Roar. I keep it in my second RH slot not to actually use, but to switch to and scream at gank squads

              POV: You’re using a collosal weapon with heavy armor but are still about to lose the trade against a much faster weapon. Heavy thrusting swords are so over kill, too much damage and too much speed compared to their range and recovery. Meanwhile, the few thrust-trade weapons that could have been balanced by their range, like war pick/Lucerne, don’t even overcome strength builds physical resistances. Spear talisman is so overkill too. The whole idea behind spear talisman and counter hits is to impale people on your thrust while avoiding a trade. Rewarding positioning rather than rewarding trades of only thrust weapons for a totally arbitrary reason. I’ll also point out, that I’m pretty sure headshots count in melee and would stack multiplicatively with counter hits and spear talisman etc. I’ve seen absurd damage on counter trades even on split damage thrust weapons and no spear talismans.

                I like putting Glintstone Blades AoW on this, then running at big boys in PvE. The AoW either breaks their poise, or the running R2 will, and then you get the front stab off as well.
                Either way, it's a good way to counter the fact that the epee doesn't do much poise damage on its own when you're facing a large enemy

                  My only complaint is that there isn't another heavy thrusting sword for powerstancing until mid to late game.
                  But I love this thing-- there's just something about heavy pokes that makes them feel so much more impactful

                    Yep yep yep. Get this early and a decent blunt weapon (i got spiked club early) and you are set until mid game at least.

                      It's funny that they chose the largest kind of fencing blade to make a larger version of. I'd have liked a great foil or great saber but noooo

                        Someone on the From office stand up and said what if we made Estoc even better. This thing is so good that its unreal, possibly the best strength weapon when used with the right build.

                          Does more damage than my collosals on str build. But I guess that speaks more to how bad collosals are. Anyways this finishes most duels in 3 r1s and it’s actually really boring to use now. The move set was a lot of fun in pve tho, specially feint r2s and backstep attacks. It’s r1 spam also looks really cool.

                            If you're going into a strength build, this is the best weapon in this category to use, If you're going into any other type of build the godkin sticher is the better weapon. I'm not factoring in the difference in the R2s, just the stat distribution.

                                I'm planning on infusing this and Godskin Stitcher for a powerstance Bleed build, since they do heavy buildup while maintaining C/C scaling. Give people the beeg poke while maintaining Stitcher's multi-poke R2s.

                                This thing on it's own? Pokes are relatively fast but R2s, especially charged ones, are extremely slow slashes. Despite the article praising it's charged R2s I didn't notice any extreme difference between this and the staggering potential of other, faster weapons (Compared with Lordsworn GS, both at +1, staggered Tree Sentinel in the same amount of hits with Lordsworn GS charge R2s being faster)

                                Not really the biggest fan of it because of that. Certainly think it looks neat though. For abovementioned build it would be in the offhand for certain.

Face the other way, and get down, you will find a group of enemies. The Great Epee is inside a chest. on the right side." Who TF wrote this? Just say "Go due east from the Agheel Lake South site of grace. In a chest near two Kaiden sellswords."

                                    So probably all "cheese x boss" youtube video could be replaced by "get the fingerprint stone shield, equip the great epee, add bleed ash, enjoy your free wins". So easy to just poke behind that massive wall and every 5th-6th hit just bleeds them for a few thousands HP. This weapon carried me through all the way to the ending, tried different weapons, very few compares to this beaut.

                                        Random question but how comes you can still equip the sword without having the exact requirements? Is it just a bit slower etc as I still have a shield and seems to be okay?

                                          A little slow on the attack at times, which can leave you open, and you have to be a bit more precise with your aim. If you can master that, though, you have an early-game heavy hitter that can easily take your through the entire game if you so wish.

                                            Running R2 on heavy thrusting swords is outstanding. Very fast, high damage, and covers a huge distance. I've been dual weilding this together with the godskin stitcher for most of my first playthough.

                                              literally the most reliable weapon I've ever used in Elden Ring and I have beaten it 3 times. This thing is not absurdly broken it's just reliable. I was able to comfortably fight enemies that I may have been underleveled for and I didn't particularly mow them down, but the entire versatility of the weapon's moveset, as well as it's incredible ability to knock things down makes it my number 1 weapon in this game ATM. Solid in PVP. solid in PVE.

                                                No idea why I didn't use this in my first playthrough, it pairs perfectly with shields and is still pretty monstrous two-handed. R2 is a horizontal swing that staggers most enemies and can basically stunlock them. Stamina cost of attacks seems surprisingly low for how hard they hit. Very versatile for a heavy weapon.

                                                  The aesthetics for this one is nice cool and normal, and it can be customized with ashes of war which is also nice, however, I think its moveset is backward in that its light attacks are thrusts and heavys slashes. It makes more sense to me for the light attacks to be quick attacks that do less dammage but allow you to remain relativly mobile, while heavy attacks plant your feet and use your whole body to maximize your dammage which is a precise stab for thgrusting focused weapons.

                                                    Very good weapon so far. Good damage, good reach, hits faster than greatswords, can poke from behind a shield, has good stagger, good scaling, doesn't require a lot of stats and can be acquired from the very start of the game. What not to like?

                                                      At nearly level 150 I realized that because I invested some extra points into DEX to use the Winged Scythe early in the game I could also use this with Sacred or Flame Art. LOL. Well, better late than never. Could have been handy in certain boss encounters weak to thrust damage.

                                                        Love how From honors their tradition of giving really long range weapons relatively fast attacks, because I didn't mind being unable to drink blue estus in a 1v1 no matter how much distance I had on my opponent. Don't forget poise so that you can't relieve pressure!

                                                          I did the Flaming strike Ashes on war on this on my new character (you can get the flaming strike ashes of war at Radahns castle from the outside at level 1, bestial sanctum from mistwood then just torrent your way down to radahn castle)
                                                          Then full Str scaling on this bad boy with fire damage and +65 flat fire dmg from the ashes of war. Doing very well with it atm. /Drolvarg

                                                            I started off using the Large Club, found it fairly satisfying but just a bit too slow for some and not quite able to catch the faster enemies. Then I infued one of these with heavy. Best decision I've made in Elden Ring so far; everything gets poked to death.

                                                              On the weapon comparison table the Crit modifier is set to 124 when it's 100 for the great Epee. Can someone change that? Had to check in-game to make sure.

No BS, this thing is ABSURD at stunning bosses and I love it, trivialized the game by just learning some little mechanics.

Ser Mercedes in DD uses a nearly identical weapon (like down to the pattern on the guard) and the description says "commonly used in life or death duels," which is one of the possible endings to her storyline in that game? Am I reading into this too much?

I like it but it takes time to learn how to handle it properly, comparing to like katana.

I think this works for most thrusting swords / heavy thrusting swords.

The running heavy covers a lot of ground and comes out insanely fast. With heavy infusion and electrify armament at 30 str 30 faith I’m pushing 600 AR, enough to kill a lot of players in two hits (level 70)
