Regalia of Eochaid is a Straight Sword in Elden Ring. The Regalia of Eochaid scales primarily with Dexterity and Arcane and is a good Weapon for Arcane Builds. 

 

Treasured sword of Eochaid, a lesser, long-vanished domain. The copper coloration is not to be confused for rust, but is a conduit for its wielder to move it by their will alone.

Where to Find Regalia of Eochaid in Elden Ring

The Regalia of Eochaid weapon can be found at the following location:

  • Going through the Gaol Cave [Elden Ring Map here] and reaching the end of the dungeon.
  • An alternative route would be to start at the Third Church of Marika and face Southeast. Ride your horse until the cliff meets the water. The cliffside here should have a more red hue to it than the rest of the rock found in Limgrave. If you’re facing the wall due East you’ll notice a cragged vertical line where one part of the cliff face is protruding from another. Double jump on Torrent while following that line and you should now be riding up the cliff face. Now turn your camera to face Northeast, you’ll notice what appears to be an arrowhead of grey stone forming a flat surface among the red-hued cliff. Jump there, then turn the camera South. While it doesn’t look feasible, sprint jump with torrent towards the protrusion across the before mentioned cragged vertical line. When you land, quickly double jump (facing East) to get on top of the ledge. You’ll notice above you several steps in the cliff face just slightly to the right- climb those. Then, jump due North onto the final platform. You will now be above the cliff and able to drop down to the weapon.

 

Elden Ring Regalia of Eochaid Notes & Tips

  • Weapon Skill: Eochaid's Dancing Blade
  • This weapon cannot be infused with Ashes of War
  • Cannot be enchanted with Magic nor buffed by Consumables
  • Regalia of Eochaid can be upgraded by using Somber Smithing Stones
  • Eochaid's Dancing Blade's damage is based on total Attack Rating, so using things that boost your AR will increase its damage significantly.
  • Rotten Winged Sword InsigniaMillicent's Prosthesis and the Thorny Cracked Tear all boost the damage of this Skill since each strike of the corkscrew is considered an attack.
  • Despite having C scaling in both Dexterity and Arcane, you get far more damage out of this Weapon for each point of Arcane. Past 20 Dexterity damage starts to decline with this Attribute, making this a great weapon to pair with Arcane spellcasters, since you typically invest heavily into this Attribute to maximize damage.

      Uh.... Was the entry for Regalia of Eochaid changed? I don't remember it saying that Eochaid was a 'long-vanished' domain. Maybe my brain melted, but I really don't remember that

        Imo the greatsword should have been the drill and this one should have had a skill similar to what the bell bearing hunters use, I think it'd be way better than having both do the same thing

          This is another Irish reference. According to the lebor gabála érenn, Eochaidh Fionn-Fohart was one of two brothers of Conn Of The Hundred Battles.

            Cool on paper, beyond useless in practice.

            Moveset is super limited and slow, attack range and skill range are really low. Damage is nice but that's it. Occult Milady is 5 billion times better due to the moveset alone.

              These two Weapons (the one handed and the two handed version) could be incredibly fun and viable, if they could be infused with either magic/miracles or items.
              Any element applied would make them a great pick for any build.
              Especially for fast status effect buildup.
              You could apply poison on it and use its weapon effect for a fast injection, then apply something else and do the same again.
              Or you make it a flame sword or lightning and use it as a paladin, it would scale with arcane and gain your faith damage through the enchantment.

              I think both versions are the best looking swords in the game and their weapon art of drilling enemies is super fun.
              But A: the weapon art doesnt have a proper combo thats fun and B: they are useless besides a short stagger of the enemy.

              Also wished they dug far more into the lore and its related items, spells and weapons for that part of the game.
              More Thorn Magic, more blood magic, more Arcane stuff, more weapons like these and weapon arts that are fun using thorns and such.

                I cannot believe that the alternative route to grab the sword early actually worked!

                  For all these sorts of things, instead of using glitches just summon players to get there the normal way faster and get other people some easy rune arcs

                    Eochaid means "horse" in Gaelic and most popularly refers to Eochaid Mugmedon, an old Irish king of legend. Eochaid = Ireland?

                      There's a reason to use this instead of the Marais executioner? I mean, it's a good looking weapong but the other one is just much better in all

                        The guy who wrote this calling the damage "decent" has no idea what he's talking about. As Dex/Arcane, this thing carried me trough the DLC with a blood-infused Warhawk Talon in the offhand. With 60 dex/60 arcane, this thing has as much AR as two-handed weapons, it's a monster.

                          It’s a pity that the dex scaling is higher than str, I found the most optimal usage for it to be in a sword and board build with high stability, as guard counters stagger everyone easily, allowing you to use the skill. Perhaps some could try to hold the communion seal in the other hand, and try to use stuff like flame of frenzy, though.

                                    ER being stingy with unique movesets compared to other souls games really lets this weapon down, the two eochaid weapons could've really used some moves like briar... and if not that, then atleast the drill should lock enemies in if it connects. really unfortunate wep

                                      This thing looks sweet and can be decent in the early game especially as one of the only main Arcane weapon options you can rush to....but in regard to PvE if I could describe any weapon in this game as mid this thing would certainly match a lot of the criteria. The AoW is good against very light enemies but it's 1 slash and then a very short range drill that enemies recover from quickly. This will not stagger most bosses. Coupled with the plain moveset of the shortsword and limited range and this thing is very meh. At the point where the AoW can be benefitted drastically by talismans you are better off using other Arcane weapons or getting more damage output in other ways. If you really wanting to go through the game with the weapon art Marais Executioner does everything this does only hitting harder and actually dishing out stance damage.

                                        I was looking into making a Dex/Arcane build for Morgott's Cursed Sword and Eleonora's Poleblade to have for the new DLC. Needed something to hold me over until I could unlock them and this was a fun treat as it can be unlocked early and hadn't used straight swords in ages.

                                        Hits hard early game and is fun for sword and board with a spicy AoW. Took me back to DS3. Even though I have the "more powerful weapons now" I still keep this in my kit since it's good looking and a nice change of pace.

                                            If you wanna get this weapon without having to go through the dungeon first, you can actually get it right from the Third Church of Marika in Limgrave, all you need is Torrent and you can skyrim horse climb onto the cliff edge. It's a little tricky but definitely possible (I've done it twice now)

                                                That thing does 600 dmg at +10 with the base str and dex ans 60 arc
                                                With rotten winged sword Insignia and using the dancing blade skil it means over 5000 per use while making the target flinch over and over, unable to attack.
                                                Including Malenia.
                                                Not that you'd use it much since the dragonmaw incantation does the same amount AND gets her to fly away but it gets its uses.

                                                      You might not consider this, but this weapon's sheer firepower alone makes it powerful, it can gain up to 797 AR at 99 sttas, compared to the slender sword's barely 600 competing with heavier weapons so it packs incredible powerstanced jump attacks and with the ash, you can easily enable the successive buff or successive heals from the swaddling cloth then jump attack again for easy 2k ++ damage output with low weight. It's an unexpected perk from this weapon that's for sure!

                                                            I prefer this to the Executioner's Blade in all honesty. Having a hast primary attack to contrast with the slow skill feels so much better to play with compared to how slow the Great sword moveset is.

                                                              Honestly given the Roman(?)-looking design of the sword, the red arcane stuff, and the mention of it as a "long-vanished domain", I wonder if the "shadow lands" for Shadow of the Erdtree is actually going to be Eochaid, or at least contain some of it.

                                                              The trailers show a fair bit of ancient Greek/Roman aesthetic, Miyazaki mentioned that the DLC continent was split off and disappeared from the normal world, and I'm noticing a fair bit of "red magic" in the trailer, though that's not really conclusive of anything. Eochaid always did strike me as being one of the most conspicuously absent cultures in the setting, in spite of some significance to overarching lore. I hope we get some expansion on it, as well as the Reedlands.

                                                                So Eochaid is a name found in many Irish/Gaelic tales, such as The Wooing of Etain. Eochaid is the name of a king of Ireland in that tale. Commonly pronounced (phonetically) as yo-Ked.

                                                                • My favorite sword and possibly my favorite weapon in the whole game. Good damage, fantastic skill with super high damage and great range, Gaelic name, and just SO beautiful. I love the look of this sword more than any other weapon. Like, seriously, I can't stress enough how much this design tickles my aesthetic nerve.

                                                                  • Anonymous

Jellyfish shield for a guard counter playstyle and to conserve HP, swap to two-handing to use the weapon art when useful, and a Dragon Communion toolkit to melt bosses or crowds when necessary. Might not be min-maxed, but the variety of Olay makes it very fun.

                                                                    • Anonymous

                                                                      • Anonymous

                                                                        • Anonymous

                                                                          • Anonymous

Used the Regalia to take out Bloody Finger Nerijus and get the Reduvia. The Regalia works better on miners of Limgrave vs. Reduvia etc., so they pair well (Regalia for magic and Reduvia for blood).

                                                                            • Interestingly the red magical effect can be seen in a few AoW's. The ones that come to mind are Eochaid's Dancing Blade (obviously), Lifesteal Fist and Devourer of Worlds. While I doubt Devourer of Worlds is connected to Eochaid I do think Lifesteal Fist is another of Eochaids arcane battle arts due to the similarity of the red effect and its connection to life energies.

                                                                                  • Anonymous

                                                                                    If you are doing a bleed build and want a secondary weapon that is good for bleed-immune enemies this is excellent. The ash works great on miners and the like.

                                                                                    • Anonymous

You can pump arcane for the majority of your damage, boost spellcasting via rapid damage talismans and physik and also use things like terra magica which will increase the damage of the sword a lot. (On a 20 dex/60 arcane split, about half of the damage on this is gonna be magic damage, so terra magica is a 17.5% damage boost).

                                                                                      Not to mention that if you get a 2nd one via NG+, duping or trading, you can powerstance 2 straight swords, which is one of the best and fastest movesets in the game, giving you another way to maintain all your consecutive attack damage buffs.

                                                                                      • Anonymous

                                                                                        • Anonymous

                                                                                              • I love this sword's striking resemblance to a Roman Gladiolus, it's one of my favorites! I currently have this paired with the Winged Sword Insignia. I'm working on getting Millicent's Prosthesis to pair with the Winged Sword to REALLY stack up damage from it's AoW.
                                                                                                ....to the guy below me, that's weird, I'll have to try that out next time.
                                                                                                ...also, yeah I'd love to see Eochaid in upcoming DLC, uncover how they learned to make their swords 'dance'!

                                                                                                • Anonymous

At pretty much max distance after procs it does 1616. But i was just slightly staggered out of the beginning of the animation but it continued almost instantly, this time the damage final damage was 2349 so a 45% boost. Does anyone know why this happened? Ive had counter hits before fighting them but nothing like that

Regalia with the lifesteal bone (or any off-hand fist weapon with the lifesteal AoW) in the off-hand. Just swap the bone out to nothing or a no skill shield when you want to use Dancing Blade. For fashion you can use Ensha's helm with a mix of night cavalry pieces. I imagine it might be fun for low level invasions or dueling since Darkwraiths are PvP focused.

I'm not familiar with the word, and I looked for it in several dictionaries but found nothing. The closest is "Eochair" meaning "Key".

I just wish the slash at the end of the charged AoW was performed "telekinetically" to match the increased range of the corkscrew attack. It's frustrating when it doesn't connect.

Executioner's Sword has more pure power, but I've never liked the moveset for greatswords that plunge into the ground with each attack as much as the straight sword moveset. Arcane and dexterity investment supports both this weapon and an off-hand blood-affinity whip, which complements the sword's relative lack of range excellently, and if an enemy doesn't die from the blood loss proc then the stagger gives you a window for a Dancing Blade finisher. For talismans, it's the aforementioned Blue Dancer Charm, Winged Sword, and Shard of Alexander as mainstays, and then I mix and match Godfrey Icon, Lord of Blood's Exultation, Claw Talisman, or anything else as a wild card or utility slot based on circumstance (such as if chances to fully charge the skill or proc bleed with the whip are too few and far between to where powering up my standard attacks or anything else fun would be worthwhile). That said, a fully charged Dancing Blade with the Blue Dancer, Winged Sword, Shard of Alexander, and Godfrey icon all together is an absolute nuke, and nothing feels better than instantly deleting a massive health bar with a perfectly seized opportunity (If you're not a light load, you can switch Blue Dancer to Millicent's Prosthesis, which stacks with either winged sword insignia). Critical hits? Backstabs? Who needs 'em! Eochaidian sword go brrrrrrrrr
