Last Updated on: 11 February, 2024 | 7:15 AM

The entire journey of Elden Ring requires you to fight challenging bosses, remove obstacles, solve puzzles, and find necessary items to explore the story. From the very beginning, one thing players must have understood is that this journey can’t be completed without powerful weapons as enemies await every step. The developers are also aware of this fact, so they have presented players with a wide range of weapons including swords, Greatswords, and katanas to make the journey a bit smoother.

Of course, not all these weapons are equally effective in helping you fight enemies, but Sword of Night and Flame is different. This is one of the fan-favorite weapons of the game since the beginning and the best part is players can find it earlier in their journey. So, if you are looking for some help to know how to find Sword of Night and Flame in Elden Ring, this guide will give you a detailed step-by-step process.

What is Sword of Night and Flame in Elden Ring?

The name of the weapon reveals that it is a sword, but not an ordinary one. It is one of the most powerful weapons to be found in the early stages of the game. This is a straight sword with a unique visual flair, but the unique part is that Sword of Night and Flame has two Weapon Arts. Both these weapon arts are immensely powerful. The first is the powerful beam of glintstone magic and the next one is the devastating swirl of fire. Once you start using these abilities, you will realize, these are enough to give challenging enemies a hard time. So, in no time, this weapon will become one of the most favorite in your journey.

Like most other Elden Ring weapons, Sword of Night and Flame can’t be wielded if you don’t meet the requirement. This weapon needs you to have 12 Strength, 12 Dexterity, 24 Intelligence, and 24 Faith. With time, the basic abilities of the weapon will seem to fade. You need to upgrade the weapon to maintain its effectiveness.

The upgrade process also requires lots of effort as you need the rarest upgrade material of the game Somber Smithing Stones to upgrade the sword. If you are not sure about where to get it, let me tell you, you must purchase Somber Smithing Stones 1-4 from Iji, the giant you encounter on your way to Caria Manor. It costs you 15000 Runes. The price is surprisingly high, so players need to grind a lot before they upgrade the sword.

After you have all the necessary information about the Sword of Night and Flame, let’s check the location of the sword and how you can acquire it.

Where to Find Sword of Night and Flame in Elden Ring? Acquiring Process Explained

If you are looking for the Sword of Night and Flame, you have to make your way to the Caria Manor. Caria Manor is a legacy dungeon that is located in the northwestern corner of the Liurnia of the Lakes region. This is an area that players can’t get access to by default. Instead, most players have to take down Godrick the Grafted to enter the north side of the Liurnia of the Lakes. Godrick the Grafted is one of the main bosses of the game and one of the four Shardbearers whom you can’t ignore in the game. So, this fight will be a mandatory one and once you take the enemy down, you will unlock the location you need to head to for acquiring the Sword of Night and Flame.

Caria Manor is one of the most challenging legacy dungeons of the game and is an optional area. So, the main story won’t take you to the Caria Manor. Therefore, players must be very careful of their progress path and whether they are exploring the exact areas. Otherwise, they may miss it.

To find Caria Manor, players must stick to the left-hand cliff in Liurnia of the Lakes, and make their way to the north side until they reach the Road to the Manor Site of Grace. Here you will meet the giant named Iji. He will talk about some lore that will tell you some information. Go past him and eventually, you will reach the entrance of the manor. At the entrance, you will have a Site of Grace. Rest at it to make it your closest respawn point, if you somehow get killed in the process. Don’t take this alert lightly as the Caria Manor is dangerous.

From the start of the manor, you will encounter different enemies. Fight them or avoid them and progress through the manor until you reach the fountain. Turn left and start your journey. At one point, you will see a door with a blue light. Climb the stairs, go past the Site of Grace, and start progressing through the stone walkway.

When you encounter the first tower turn left and on the next turn right. You will soon reach an open section from where you can see the roof of a nearby building. Go to the roof and jump down to the next one. Take the ladder and go down to a room. Inside that room, you will find a chest. Open the chest and the Sword of Night and Flame will be inside. Remember throughout the journey, you will face multiple enemies to defeat. From giant spider hands to ghostly knights, you have to deal with several enemies inside the dungeon. You can run past some of them but must take down a few to clear your way to progress.

That’s everything you can do to get Sword of Night and Flame in Elden Ring. Once you get the weapon, it will be one of your best companions until you get other legendary weapons like Ghiza’s Wheel or Bloodhound’s Fang in Elden Ring. After getting the sword, you can either get back and start progressing through the main story, or you can explore the dungeon till the end. That will be your choice. Just keep one thing in mind, if you decide to explore, you must be careful of facing waves of different enemies inside.
