A greatsword crafted from light and modeled after the Elden Ring, The Golden Order Greatsword was crafted by Radagon himself to solidify the legacy of the Golden Order. This legendary armament fell into misbegotten hands over the course of centuries.
In this guide, we will help you locate the Golden Order Greatsword and how you can use it with Magic builds. Be prepared to hike to the coldest region of the Lands Between.
Golden Order Greatsword Location
Golden Order Greatsword can be obtained by killing the Misbegotten Crusader inside the Cave of the Forlon. This optional boss is found at the end of a cave found in the Consecrated Snowfield.
The Cave of Forlon is at the northeast end of a ravine separating the Consecrated Snowfield’s northern and southern parts. Its entrance is to the southeast of the Minor Erdtree.
Once you enter the Cave of Forlon, progress through it until you reach the very end. Traverse the yellow fog gate to face the Misbegotten Crusader. He is the strongest Misbegotten enemy in the game with a whopping 9100 HP.
He uses the same attack pattern as the Leonine Misbegotten, and his weapon of choice is the Golden Order Greatsword. This enemy is weak to fire attacks, so we recommend using pyromancy spells (Giant spells) or applying Fire Grease to your weapon.
Once defeated, Misbegotten Crusader drops the Golden Order Greatsword, part of the 9 legendary armaments in the Elden Ring.
