A curved greatsword used by the knights of Zamor against giants, the Zamor Curved Sword is infamous for inflicting frostbite upon enemies in the Elden Ring. Primarily a Dexterity weapon, this curved blade is a drop from an optional boss in the game.
In this guide, we will help you reach an elusive dungeon and defeat its final boss to obtain the Zamor Curved Sword in the Elden Ring.
Zamor Curved Sword Location
Zamor Curved Sword can be obtained by defeating the Ancient Hero of Zamor inside the Giant-Conquering Hero’s Grave dungeon. This dungeon can be found by navigating the northern part of the Consecrated Snowfield.
It is northeast of the Grand Lift of Rod and Zamor Ruins, but you can’t reach it directly. It is one of the most difficult and confusing dungeons in the game. You must lure enemies into light circles to defeat them.
Once you reach the end of the Giant-Conquering Hero’s Grave, you will meet the Ancient Hero of Zamor. This boss has 5400 HP and uses the same attacks as other Zamor knights.
Beware of his frostbite attacks. Ancient Hero of Zamor is weak to Magic and Slash attacks. You can also parry his attacks for riposte. Once defeated, he drops Zamor Curved Sword.
