Elden Ring DLC: Shadow of the Erdtree – Throwing Blade Build Guide
The Elden Ring DLC, Shadow of the Erdtree, introduces a new weapon type – the Throwing Blade. If you’re looking to master this mid-range melee option, our guide has got you covered. From finding the Smithscript Dagger to optimizing your build, we’ll help you become a knife-throwing machine.
Finding the Smithscript Dagger
To unlock the Smithscript Dagger, head to the Ruined Forge Lava Intake dungeon in the gravite plane. Lower the lava pipe along the critical path to face a Forge Golem. Behind it, you’ll find a corpse holding the Smithscript Dagger. This unique weapon functions as an infinite set of daggers, perfect for mid-range combat.
Optimizing Your Stats
For a Throwing Blade build, focus on Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, and Faith. Aim for at least 26-30 in these stats to maximize the dagger’s potential. Pair it with lighter armor sets like the Alrick or Bandit set for increased agility and stealth.
Choosing the Right Talismans
Select talismans like the green turtle Talisman or vidiian Amber Medallion to restore stamina and extend your capabilities. For added damage, consider the winged sword or rotten winged sword Talisman. Upgrade with the fine Crucible feather Talisman for enhanced backstepping.
Enhancing Your Abilities
Pair your Throwing Blade with spells like Assassin’s Approach or Unseen Form for stealth attacks. Experiment with Roar of Rugala for AOE damage or Bu Miriam’s Vanishing for increased mobility. Customize your Ashes of War for additional elemental damage or crowd control.
Flask of Wondrous Physick
Use Crystal tiers to boost specific stats that complement your Throwing Blade build. Whether you prioritize strength, dexterity, or intelligence, there are options to enhance your throwing abilities and survivability in combat.
With a well-rounded build and strategic approach, you’ll dominate with the Throwing Blade in Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Embrace the thrill of knife-throwing combat and conquer your foes with style!
