The Bloodflame Blade incantation covers your weapon with a fiery Bloodflame that causes additional bleed buildup on enemies in Elden Ring.
The incantation is so powerful that most players tend to revolve their characters around a Bloodflame Blade build.
So, if you are interested in a bleed build, you need to know where to go to get the Bloodflame Blade incantation.
Where to find the Bloodflame Blade incantation in Elden Ring
You can find the Bloodflame Blade incantation in Liurnia of the Lakes, just northwest of the Rose Church. It is dropped by a Teardrop Scarab that you first have to find here.
Hence, in summary, you have to make your way to the marked location on the map above, find the Teardrop Scarab, and kill it to loot the Bloodfame Blade in Elden Ring.
You can get there by going to the Folly on the Lake site of grace. From the site of grace, you can head north toward the Rose Church. Once you reach the church you will encounter several Albin auric enemies there.
Take out these enemies and head a little south from the Rose Church to enter the lake. Inside the lake, you will find the Teardrop Scarab that will drop the Bloodflame Blade once you kill it.
Take note that the Bloodflame Blade is not a guaranteed drop. There is a chance that killing your first Teardrop Scarab here will not drop the incantation. So, just keep killing the scarabs here until one of them finally drops the Bloodflame Blade.
How to use Bloodflame Blade in Elden Ring
The first thing you need to know about using the Bloodflame Blade incantation is the Finger Seal because similar to other incantations, you cannot use Bloodflame Blade without equipping a seal.
You can get the Finger Seal at the Roundtable Hold. Head back there and speak with the merchant NPC Enia who will sell you the Finger Seal.
Once that is done, head to any site of grace and memorize the Bloodflame Blade spell. Now you will be able to use it in the game.
You just have to make sure that you have equipped the Finger Seal for using that incantation in Elden Ring. The FP cost to use that spell is 20 and its buff lasts for 60 seconds.
The blood blade incantation in Elden Ring will buff your right-handed weapon with the blood flame. This makes the weapon does increased damage on your foes and more importantly, it will also allow a small amount of bleed.
This can benefit you immensely as by using it you can turn pretty much turn any weapon into a bleed weapon assuming that the particular weapon is compatible. However you can’t use this ability with special weapons, but it will work fine on standard weapons.
Moreover, additional benefits of applying the Bloodflame incantation on the standard weapon can result in the “Hemorrhage status effect”. This effect in turn boosts the output of that weapon imbued with this incantation.
It results in increasing its attributes such as lethal power and debuffing your opponents with weakness in terms of “blood loss”, turning the tide of the battle in your favor.
