Bloodfiend’s Arm Location – Where to find the weapon in Shadow of the Erdtree?

The Bloodfiend’s Arm is a new Colossal Weapon introduced in Shadow of the Erdtree DLC of Elden Ring. Many players claim this weapon to be one of the best in the DLC because of its massive physical damage stats and bleed effects.

This weapon is rather easy to find early on in the game, but in case you haven’t got it yet here is how you can do it.

1. How to get the Bloodfiend’s Arm in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree?

The Bloodfiend’s Arm weapon can be obtained by defeating the Bloodfiends enemy in Prospect Town in the southwestern region of Shadow Realm. It is just south of the Main Gate Cross site of grace, near where the player spawns in Shadow Realm.

This site of grace is west of the Gravesite Plain site of grace, which is the first one they encounter after entering the Realm of the Shaodws in DLC.

2. Reaching the Prospect Town and Finding the Weapon?

From the Main Gate Cross site of grace, get on the Torrent and head southeast. Stick to the massive rocky wall and follow the rock ledge pathway to reach Prospect Town.

Now, get ready for some parkour. Head southwards in the open area and you will come across a broken wall covered under a tarp/cloth.

Climb over this wall, and head upstairs to the left.

Now, take the stone stairs up on the right side at the end of the pathway, and then take a quick left.

Make your way up the giant fallen pillar and then circle around the broken walls to reach the rooftop.

You will find many Bloodfiend enemies camping here.

Defeat all the Bloodfiend enemies and one of them will drop the Bloodfiend’s Arm weapon for you!

3. How good is the Bloodfiend’s Arm in the Elden Rind Shadow of Erdtree?

The Bloodfiend’s Arm is the best colossal weapon in Elden Ring DLC because of its 147 physical damage base stat and high bleed build-up effect which adds up if the wielder makes a charged attack.

This weapon is highly strength-focused, therefore you require Strength 28, Arcane 16, and Dexterity 11 to wield it. Despite the high damage rate and bleed build-up effect, Bloodfiend’s Arm may not suit your playstyle because its large size makes it difficult to swing and thus makes you a slow and easy target for the fast foes in the Shadow Realm.
