A weapon of choice for Kaiden Knights and Northern Mercenaries, Dismounter is a massive, curved sword that belongs to the Greatswords category in Elden Ring. As an early game weapon with impressive stats, Dismounter Curved Greatsword is a weapon of choice for the newcomers and a lot of veterans alike.
Due to its open world nature and no in-game guides available whatsoever, finding a particular item becomes a daunting task in Elden Ring. In this guide, we will help you find Dismounter Curved Greatsword with ease and discus its stats in details.
How to Get Dismounter Curved Greatsword in Elden Ring
Dismounter Curved Greatsword can’t be obtained as a reward from completing a particular task or by looting treasure chests. The only way to obtain this greatsword in Elden Ring is by farming a particular enemy (or enemies) known as Northern Mercenaries.
Northern Mercenaries are available all over Limgrave and are dressed like Mongolian soldiers. These enemies usually travel in groups and there are a lot of them waiting to ambush players on their way to Stormveil Castle. Due to the low drop rate of Dismounter Curved Greatsword (4%), we don’t recommend farming Northern Mercenaries randomly.
Instead, go to the Stormfoot Catacombs site of grace near a beach. You will find a single Northern Mercenary there near a bonfire. Farm him to your heart’s content as he seems to have the highest drop rate for this Greatsword. Use Silver Pickled Fowl Foot and add some points to your discovery stat to increase the chances for the lone mercenary to drop Dismounter Curved Greatsword.
