Nightreign Made One of Elden Ring’s Most Loved Weapons Nearly Impossible to Get

by

In the community, the Dark Moon Greatsword acquired during Ranni’s questline in the original Elden Ring serves as a symbolic weapon. Its appearance is grandiose, and it also packs quite a punch, earning it a spot among the most desired equipment within the game, and now in Nightreign too.

Regrettably, obtaining the famous sword from FromSoftware’s recent cooperative game isn’t easy due to the extremely low probability at which it appears as a reward – a design choice made by the developers themselves.

Why the Dark Moon Greatsword is sought after and loved the most in Elden Ring and Nightreign





The Dark Moon Greatsword from Elden Ring is widely recognized and cherished among players. In the initial version of the game, you acquire this formidable weapon as a reward upon finishing Ranni’s Questline. This achievement not only grants you the weapon but also unlocks the ‘Age of Stars’ ending for the game.

The Dark Moon Greatsword isn’t merely a fighting tool; it carries a historical connection to FromSoftware’s previous games, earning it the title of a revered artifact that experienced players instantly link to the Souls series. Moreover, it adjusts according to intelligence not only in Elden Ring but also Nightreign, and its power is further amplified by strength in the latter game.

As a dedicated fan in Elden Ring Nightreign, I can attest that this weapon is steeped in lore and packs quite the punch! It’s more than just a tool; it’s a legendary artifact, demanding a player of at least level 12 to wield it effectively. As my character delves deeper into combat, it inflicts a frostbite status effect on enemies, making each subsequent attack even more devastating.

How to get the Dark Moon Greatsword in Elden Ring Nightreign

In the game Elden Ring Nightreign, weapons can be acquired by finding them in chests or defeating bosses. However, it’s unfortunate that the loot generated is different each time you play, making it challenging for players to find the Dark Moon Greatsword, a highly sought-after legendary weapon. In fact, it’s quite rare for players to encounter this famous weapon from the 2022 release, as only a small number of gamers have reported finding it so far on social media platforms.

As a devoted fan, I’d say that Nightreign fundamentally alters Elden Ring, turning it into a roguelike adventure with no more questlines to guide players or rewards to claim. The rareness of the Dark Moon Greatsword in this new game serves to emphasize its prestige and legendary status.

As I dive into this cooperative gaming experience that wasn’t crafted by Hidetaka Miyazaki himself, I can feel a fresh wave of innovation wash over me. Instead of the usual predictable treasure hunting, Nightreign has introduced an element of surprise and luck to loot drops, making every corner a potential prize. It’s like every step could lead to a hidden gem – now that’s fun!
