Elden Ring: Where to find the Grafted Blade Greatsword
You’ll need to reach Castle Morne, which is located on the southernmost tip of the Weeping Peninsula, a small zone to the south of Limgrave. It’s relatively easy to avoid the castle’s ballista defenses by keeping to the right as you approach on horseback.
The dungeon itself is fairly straightforward. After riding the elevator up from the entrance, avoid the mass of enemies on the right (depicted in the screenshot above) and head to the back of the courtyard. There is a ladder up to the castle ramparts on the right.
You can only go south from the top of the ladder, so head that way and be careful of flying Misbegottens. At the fork, the right path dropping down will take you to a site of grace and the relatively linear path to the boss. The left will take you to Edgar, Irinia’s father and part of her sidequest. You’ll want to talk to him with the Grafted Blade Greatsword equipped to proceed in that quest.
The boss area for the Leonine Misbegotten is pictured above. It’s a fast and aggressive enemy, but certainly no Margit and not a particularly difficultElden Ring boss. Defeat him, and the Grafted Blade Greatsword is yours.
