A well-crafted straight sword for the soldiers of the lord’s army, the Lordsworn’s Greatsword is one of the earliest and finest strength weapons in the Elden Ring. Despite losing its sharpness due to its extended usage over the years, this greatsword still carries a massive punch.
In this guide, we will help you find Lordsworn’s Greatsword and craft an overpowered Strength build around it.
Lordsworn’s Greatsword Location
Lordsworn’s Greatsword is one of the earliest greatswords you can get your hands on. It can be looted from a parked carriage near the Gatefront Ruins.
The Gatefront Ruins are north of where you started your journey in Elden Ring. Just follow the direction of grace emanating from the Sites of Grace until you reach the Gatefront Ruins Site of Grace.
This is the same grace where Melina will first visit you and hand over the spectral steed, Torrent. From this site of grace, go back and keep to your left.
You will come across a carriage with a few guards around it. Defeat the enemies and go to the back of the carriage to find a treasure chest.
Open the treasure chest to obtain the Lordsworn’s Greatsword in Elden Ring. It is that easy to obtain.
