Is Leda's Sword an Underrated Weapon?
Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree has added tons of weapons, making PvP even more wild! There are so many great picks, but there's one weapon that's secretly perfect for duels: Leda's Sword!
How does Leda's Sword Work?
- Leda's Sword isn't your ordinary sword, thanks to this crazy Ash of War. That's called Needle Piercer. When you activate this special move, it shoots a ton of needles that circle around your enemy, and if they get hit enough times, you'll strip all their buffs!
- This Ash of War, even though it’s not a super heavy hit, makes Leda’s Sword awesome in Elden Ring PvP because it makes a huge difference in duels!
But Is it Just a Buffe Remover?
- Not at all! This Elden Ring Light Greatsword can make a big impact even without buff removal. It’s super fast! You gotta be super fast too when using it - especially when trying to take those buffs away! And the weapon itself can really give your enemy a run for their money!
- This is totally useful! The game's rules give players a bit of prep time, with a chance to buff before the Elden Ring duel begins! It might even have an advantage, depending on whether you’ve got Crystal Tears, Wondrous Physick, or buffs like Flame Grant Me Strength !
- You might even take away buffs like Royal Knight's Resolve - just as long as you hit the target with those needles!
How Does Needle Piercer Work in Duels?
It’s kinda tricky but imagine a secret "status bar" filling up every time an enemy gets hit by a needle. That’s when those Buffs disappear. You'll actually be able to see those buffs on your enemy (in a really neat way, like glowing effects) - once those vanish, the Buff is totally gone!
What Should I Look Out For?
- You have to be a real expert if you want to use the Ash of War, since it removes the enemies debuffs too! Think about how long the battle lasts and how you are hitting that target!
- If you've got Faith in this, that really is super helpful! You get more incantations and this gives you more buffs.
This sword will definitely take your PvP strategy to the next level, and if you want to grab this one, you're gonna have to beat Needle Knight Leda, so it's kinda a tough challenge, but definitely worth it. And you can even pair it up with Leda’s armor. I wouldn’t call this a "Best Weapon", but it’s definitely a Elden Ring Underrated Weapon, just waiting to be unleashed!
