      This is a guaranteed drop. the final lion-headed beast warrior of the last area, of the whole dlc, just before Promised Consort Radahn will drop this CGS. For me, it went straight to inventory once he died. I had the notification, he himself did not drop it. He is slightly bigger, tankier, and has a different move set, very storm-oriented. You can tell he’s the one because the environment, which is a wide pearlescent marble staircase that curves upward to the left starts to plateau for this mini-boss battle.

        you'll find a horned warrior just before the cleansing chamber anteroom grace in Enir-Ilim, beware he's pretty tanky

          just got it at end game, think it was gaunraTEED, JUST KEEP PLAYING THE GAME TARNISHED YOULL FIND IT. ITS DESTINED

            when I got to the place I ran back into the room when he roared, I came back out to fight him only to see him falling to his death after trying to turn the corner, I guess I missed out on the weapon on that character.

              DO NOT TRY TO FARM. Holy poop is the enemy in midra's manse hard and it doesn't even drop it. Guy is harder than some bosses. Drops later in the game.

                The paired swords are farmable so this must be too just not from the ones in the starting areas. I'll check if the later enemies can drop them.

                  I was farming the damn warrior in the mainse mantion with 7,4k dmg fireballs for 15 min and got the armor 3 times so i came here only to realise that it is a once time drop in the later part of the dlc. Now i will fireball some players to calm down.

                    One of three pure physical weapons that scales with faith. The other two are it's little brother and Erdsteel Dagger.

                    Two-handing with 55 Str, 37 Dex, 81 Faith would give me 318 + 466 at +10, but I cannot test it for sure since I already ran out of sombers.

                    As for the weird stats, I just like the circlet the final boss drops.

                    • I think I found a bug. If I'm holding the Horned Warrior's Greatsword in my right-hand and then try to two-hand the weapon, I instead start dual-wielding a second one. I DON'T HAVE A SECOND ONE. I even tried this without any other armaments on either hand, and was just holding the Horned Warrior's Greatsword. All of a sudden, a second one spawns, and I can dual wield. This doesn't happen with any other weapon. Can anyone else test this?

                      • This is an Ash of War stick, the damage on this thing stinks at any level below 400 because of the mediocre scaling in 3 separate stats, this is like an Ultra-Quality weapon in the sense that you need 80+ investment into 3 stats (instead of 2) before it starts becoming more comparable to the competition, and in every category beyond the Ash of War this is just worse than the Bloodhound's Fang which requires less total stat invest to get maximal returns, has longer reach, does more straight up damage, has innate status infliction, and can still be buffed.

                          Tested with Cheat engine Item discovery modifiers and confirmed. The weapon DOES NOT drop from the normal enemies. You need to get it from the guaranteed drop.

                          • Anyone farming this, don't bother. Unsure if it can even drop from the guys wielding it early game to mid game. There's a guaranteed drop near the end of the final area (go figure) after killing a special one (you kill 2 special ones before this one.)

                              Does not drop from just any enemy carrying this weapon, after defeating mesmir you'll unlock access to that place you were supposed to go after defeating lion dancer. There you'll find it near "CLEANSING CHAMBER ANTEROOM" grace

                                Can confirm. Guaranteed drop from Enir-Ilim enemy. Specifically a lion-headed horned warrior that is very close to the end of the game. On a bridge guarding a site of grace. So DO NOT waste your time farming it. The wiki is wrong. Playing the story normally, you will have no choice but to fight the enemy anyway.

                                  This is a somber weapon. Not a +25 weapon like the page shows at the moment.

                                  At +10 it's scaling is B in strength, D in Dex, and D in Faith

                                    This is NOT a random drop. It is from a horned warrior almost near the end, before (spoiler encounter) and the final boss. The horned warrior is walking on the path you need to go through, not a hidden area, so the greatsword can't be missed.

                                      You have to break the shadow seal and head up in that area, I fought 3 of them and the final one had the guarantee drop.

                                        There is no Horned Warrior page yet but let me tell you these F*** are way worst than their source of inspiration (Iudex Gundyr). They're fast, hit like truck and the greatsword ones have an insane reach. No way I farm that.....(see the weapon skill) well..(see the infusable and buffable) maybe a little ...

                                        • Ignore the north ravine grace, that guy dual wields the two swords. The spot to farm is Temple Town Ruins grace and then run through, you can ride torrent the whole way. Been killing him 3 times per silver feet, no sword yet.

                                            Yeesh. Feel bad for all these guys complaining. I thought this was a guaranteed drop from the first one you come across for belurat. Since I got it first try. Didn't even really like it that much tbh.

                                              It's a guaranteed drop from the Greatsword wielding Horned Warrior before the Cleansing Chamber Anteroom grace in Enir-Ilim. It doesn't drop from anywhere else stop farming.

                                                Oh god, finally took it after ~6-7 hours farming with max arcane, silver bug and silver horn... From bridge knight

                                                  I wonder if it only drops from a certain Horned Knight. Similiar to the Banished Knight Coat from the Banised Knight in Castle Sol.

                                                      I got the horned warrior's SWORD (Curved sword), not the horned warrior's GREATsword (Curved GS) after farming the one near the small private altar site of grace for like a billion years.

                                                      • Don't waste your time farming this. I spent a long time farming the soldier in Belurat and got at least 3x of every item drop except this sword.
                                                        I saw someone say that there is another soldier later in the DLC that gives a guaranteed drop of this sword.

                                                          I've spent four~ hours grinding this weapon, and haven't gotten it from the bridge mob. Either this is a flamemonk situation and this enemy doesn't drop it despite wielding it, or its a magma-blade lever rare drop.

                                                          Or the DLC is busted

Then trought the right side under the bridge. Not to the right side, its is only a putrid Avatar there. After a good chunk comes a horn warrior on the left side in this area with the greatsword and he dropped it for me after defeat.

                                                                    • Anonymous

To find the key, from the grace "Belurat, Tower Settlement" after you have unlocked the shortcut to the big door in front of this grace, take the lift and and go right opposite side to where to scorpions are where you can see birds on the roof, two of those birds spit fire at you, the very first one and the third one that is standing at the far corner roof with it's back to you. where that bird is standing drop down to where you can see all the purple cloth and there is a entrance to a room with the key to open the gate at to bottom of the well. This leads to the poison area where to the right side of that area there is a guy that drops this sword once killed. This key can be pretty easy to miss.

                                                                      • Anonymous
