Elden Ring Nightreign players are using an extremely rare Legendary sword to juice their stats to the moon, stacking thousands of HP and even one-hitting final bosses

After the launch of a powerful relic that significantly boosts damage upon defeating Evergaol bosses, there has been a significant change in the gameplay strategy for Elden Ring Nightreign, often referred to as the meta. Players have discovered an exceptionally rare method to enhance their strength, and it’s primarily through one of the highly sought-after legendary weapons – the Grafted Blade Greatsword.

In the game Nightreign, legendary weapons come with unique passive abilities that frequently provide substantial stat enhancements. For instance, the Grafted Greatsword’s passive ability increases all its stats as you defeat more enemies, and interestingly, there appears to be no cap on how much this boost can grow. The weapon’s passive description translates to: “Strengthens all attributes when defeating enemies. This enhancement accumulates over time.

Improving your HP, Fighting Power (FP), stamina, and weapon attack significantly can be achieved by consuming plenty of resources, without necessarily using the greatsword directly for attacks. The benefits from these stats are still transferable as long as you have the greatsword in your secondary hand. In this state, your primary weapon will continue to function like a formidable tool against game bosses.

My buddy shared a powerful strategy with me during our recent battles against Everdark Fulghor, and it seems several gamers, such as RageGamingVideos, have been advocating the might of the Grafted sword for quite a while now.

About a week back, Redditor jhaines2002 exceeded 10,000 HP by battling enemies with this Legendary sword, as they detailed. This incredible stroke of luck, involving not only obtaining a Legendary item but specifically drafting this particular weapon, led them to encounter Wormface as a night boss. The battle primarily revolves around endlessly respawning foes that yield an item for removing Wormface’s Deathblight status, although if one is both patient and ambitious, they can simply neglect the boss to farm those enemies indefinitely.

Another option is: “This could be accomplished with any other boss who continually spawns minions, as demonstrated by defeating Everdark Adel with 5k damage per strike.

Another redditor, doncicthedon, achieved comparable outcomes against Everdark Fulghor with merely 2,970 HP and 553 attack strength – a significant leap from typical endgame stats, demonstrating that you don’t necessarily need to over-farm for colossal power in ol’ Grafted.

Showcasing the maximum capability of this weapon, Reddit user Extension-Leg5493 recently posted a video of their own Everdark Fulghor defeat. “I got Wormface on my initial encounter with the GBGS,” they stated, and boy, they must have been spending quite some time in the monster fields. They transformed into a boss themselves, their health, focus points, and stamina bars stretching across the screen like colorful arches. The upgraded Nightlord was struck by a single 14,000-damage hit from Ironeye’s main-hand bow, while the Grafted sword cheered on and boosted from the sidelines, acting as the finest bard in D&D.

There are numerous instances online demonstrating this particular sword performing extraordinarily overpowered feats, leading me to question if FromSoftware might balance it out from its current overpowering state. However, successfully obtaining and utilizing the sword for your own benefit is a risky endeavor. It’s essentially a case of ‘all or nothing.’ If you fail to locate the sword – I’ve yet to see it once in my experience – you won’t be able to transform yourself into a demigod.

If you come across this item, be sure to take full advantage of it. In case you can’t reach a farmable boss, do your best to eliminate every single enemy you encounter and strive to avoid dying as much as possible because some players have mentioned losing their grafted kill stacks upon death.
