Seriously, how is anyone supposed to figure out this entire quest all by themselves?!?! This game blows my mind, takes the quests in all souls borne into a totally different level. Thank you for this video!!!!
Exactly lol. I could never in a million years figure this shit out on my own since I'm so bad with directions. They don't have quest markers on the map so you pretty much just have to figure out where to go
@@steveharvey1906 yup. It's always been like this. But it has been easier in previous games because they were very linear map layouts.
Lucky, i made 70% of the quest by lucky.
Edit: got stuck on the ring part.
I mean the npcs kinda tell you where to go but sometimes they're aren't as clear because they hide the words in riddles you could say
some of it like annoyingly obscure but i try not to research much on how to do the quest, probably my biggest gripes at Ranni quest is that how tf should i know i was suppose to go to the coffin to progress the area but other than that it was fine, i was really intrigue with Ranni's story.
You missed a pretty important step. Once you get they key from Ranni, you have to place it at the pedestal at Carian Study Hall. Once you go through there you get the Cursemark of Death, which is what you need to even open Renna's Rise.
Edit: I posted this comment like the first week the game was out. It's probably a glitch some people will experience, but getting the cursemark of death is what finally opened the door for me. I only assumed the cursemark was the necessary key to open Rennas rise, since it was listed under keys in your inventory.
thanks for that man
Thank you, freaked out when the doorway was shut lol
You just rest after you talk to her and it opens atlest it did for me
AHAHAHAH i got Renna's Rise in around 5 minutes and it was blocked, thanks
@@FIRENICEWOLF Man, my game must've been glitched. I rested and fast traveled multiple times and the door wouldn't open. It wasn't until I got the cursemark of death that it opened so I just assumed it was the key.
There may be a couple of things that can stop the quest and you should really make that clear, because I’ve been trying to do this for hours now. For those of you stuck I will try to save you some time.
1. If Ranni is not showing you may have triggered the event for Radahn boss fight and have to complete it or else she won’t show in the tower
2. I never even interacted with the wolf guy in my run so wouldn’t worry about him.
3. After you return the blade to Ranni he completely leaves out a necessary step, go back to the Study Hall in east Liurnia, place the hourglass next to the globe and complete this area, you will receive the mark of death. After you pick up this item Renna’s tower should not be blocked anymore.
TAHNK YOU SO SO SO MUCH
This is valuable intel.
I was freaking out because I completed the Radahn boss fight WAY before even starting this quest and Blaidd never showed up underground.
Can I just kill the wolf guy?
@@luisrios1989 yeah you get his weapon and armour
@@madmattis2679 I just killed him and didn’t get nothing. I never wanted to kill him but he kept attacking me for some reason.
8:41 if the door is locked for you after giving Renna the Dagger. Bring up the map and press the grace spot again basically reloading the game. That worked for me.
That worked for me ty
Ty so much
Thank you brother
Thank you so much bro this deserves so much more likes
I love u ❤
"Ah you were at my side all along"(LUDWIG THEME PLAYING)
[Begins Sweating Tremendously]
Fight
[Tells him his men were noble]
I Still hate him 🤣 worst boss in Bloodborne
Such a great and frustrating boss
@@patrikpetrucha5536 he has the best soundtrack and fight in my opinion
@@patrikpetrucha5536 but his theme is so good
I'm so exhausted from this quest physically and mentally 😭. In all honesty this felt like such a journey I'm so blown away. From soft thank you so much! Also thank you for the guide man.
I just FINALLY beat radahn after several hours of attempts, and I’m already tired of the quest lol
@@UOTQAUIBO moonlight greatsword is worth the struggle I absolutely love this weapon. Definitely completes my battle mage build.
@@akumafuhen that’s good to hear! Just gotta do the last step and it’s mine. :D You weren’t wrong, this entire quest felt like a massive journey so far, especially with the boss at the end of it. Really gave it a sense of finality
The reward is very good tho
This quest goes along the whole game looks like
This is crazy the size and amount of hidden items and paths is just nuts never seen anything like it
I’m sayin, still trying to wrap my head around it.
Yeah and its all "optional" if you choose to ignore it 🤣🤣
Bro it's called Skyrim and Fallout
Both of those games are Bethesda trash
@@osmanisanchez5248 not even remotely similar. Nice try though.
For those who are stuck at the portal that isnt on 4:12 you need to go to the waypoint ruins cellar in the starting area and talk to the npc there they will tell you to fight radahn and the portal should work
Do we have to beat Radahn
@@OGLawofCausality ya beating him is part of the quest
@@son5692 got everything including the berserker armor 👍 Radahn made me feel miserable for a very long time
Please, I don't know where you are referring to, can you explain more?
@@OGLawofCausality Do you know where it refers? I did not know
I have watched so many ER vids and yours are so digestable. I love how you speed it all up just the right amount so i can follow it without wasting time
Very impressed you explained this quest in under 15 minutes! Bravo!
Are you dumb
Finally completed the quest. I remember seeing this video a month or so ago thinking "wow this seems like way too much for me".. and here I am now :)
Thank you for the guide
Btw when you go up the ladder in renna's rise you can find on the opposite side of the opening a chest with ranni's outfit, just a little thing that wasn't mentioned, great, easy to follow guide, appreciated 2 years later 👍
Wow thank you, I thought the quest was over when I got the Nokstella talisman, turns out I just took a left instead of going straight. Very nice video!
I love how you and also more content creator's don't spoil the boss's etc even tho you're making a guide! I still haven't done it but love to pvp here and there.
Arekkz: "These are tough bosses, so you may need to be higher level to do this"
Me, at level 35, with only 15 VIT and using a battle hammer +15: "Let's die to Redahn until he learns his lesson..."
Felt this
you can summon a shitton of npcs to help though
@@DronesOverTheMoon who all do like 13 damage per swing.
You know what… I think I’m good
Life ain't rainbow and unicorns
@@spywolf-cs9js this is a game, stop comparing with reality.
Fe mate but big sword and shiny armour
🤣 my jaw is on the floor. This shit is insane 😂
@@KAI-vn2qkyou’re acting like games can’t be hard or something
To the people who reading this, when arrekz pick up the black whetblade, go straight and you will find an imp statue door, open it, defeat the enemy there, open the treasure chest, voila, one of the best summon in the game. But it all "depends" on you though 😉
Edit 1: on the lake of rot, there's platform with pillar on it, there's a switch to activate more platform to walk safely on so yeah you don't need to chug that many of your estus, also prepare some boluses that heals rot. Other tip is you can use quickstep art to...quickstep on the lake
If you activate all of those and go to the bridge that forms up top there’s also a somber stone 9 for anyone searching for those
@@jwill1010 there's also an easy one near the fort farroth, there's a circle of corpses on chair with somber tier 9
Edit: it's under the divine tower of caelid
whats the summon called?
@@N1663RR mimic tear ash
@@fishie00 thx
This quest was a nightmare to complete lol. I personally had no problems with bosses 1-3, I beat all of them 1st try. But that final boss, he REALLY handed my ass to me. Thanks for the guide!! 🌖
IMPORTANT!!! If you’re like me and started the quest line but didn’t know what to do, then killed radahn and now want to do the quest, you can skip the step in the River well. Just talk to the wolf guy after you beat radahn and you can go to fort haight👍🏾 if you want to get the map you can go down there but not necessary, the wolf won’t be there and the meteors in the sky will spawn. You just skip a step basically
But how do I get seluvis introduction? I’ve beat radahn and hes not giving me it
@@clawdoo What do you mean? After you exhaust her dialogue you should see him on your way down her tower as a spectral form like blaiid and iji
@@imbatmanlol I can confirm that he doesnt show up with the other 2
blaiid didn't come😢
At 3:25 under those stairs is a nice chest with a bow in it. And 7:49 turn left and upper left corner see the gargoyle statue and the need of a stonesword key 🔑 and there's ashes of war : mimic.
Underrated comment, because that is arguebly one of the best longbows in the game that you can get early on
And the mimic is.. well is the mimic, its pretty good as an all arround summon, its going to be useful like 70% of the time
I know this is an old comment but I just recently got into Elden Ring, and I appreciate you telling me the Mimic is here. Its one of the few things that I had heard of before actually playing the game because of how good it was.
Thanks a ton!
@@bananajoe8412 no prob happy to help you out.
That bow sucks
There's switches on the little platforms in the Lake of Rot that raise walkways for you, makes it easier to get through the area
whaaaaaaat
Bro I was ready to run with my flasks and then suddenly a pathway comes up and I'm like this wasn't in the video 🤣🤣🤣🤣😅
So I……😐 for no reason bruh……..
After 10:39 the boss fight and just started to b cumbersome and annoying but the end was worth it.
If Blaidd doesn't appear at Ranni's Rise, don't worry. The quest line is not broken! It's quite the complete opposite. You'll be able to skip straight to getting the Fingerslayer Sword! Warp to the Night's Sacred Ground grace and walk up the stairs and you'll then be destined to get the item!
what if i cant travel to any grace though
nevermind it fixed for some reason
Legend
I couldn't find him at any spots he was supposed to be at for this quest and was very confused
@@aiden6606 What step are you on in the quest?
Thank you for the guide although you did miss a few steps, but the people in the comments were able to help me figure it out. The fact that somebody actually found this weapon is a miracle. Felt like I did more for this side quest than I did for the main game, thustfar
Hey for anyone stuck at astel I found a strategy for killing it, if you have the sorcery meteorite you can go under him and cast it when he does his lunging attack and all the meteorites will hit him. If you do it near the head which is more risky, you can deal tones of damage
I went through all these places on my first play through but wasn’t really paying attention. Now on my second play through everything makes sense and I am finding items I missed the first time. Thanks!
If you’ve been playing the soulsborne series of games for a while then you’ll know it’s been by our side all along.
playing it again after two years for new dlc and this video is still the most helpful vid on this game
Thank you for letting us experience the bosses/cutscenes nice guide!
This bloody guide took me half a day…it’s 3 am and I need to work tomorrow. But thanks it was so worth it
I doesn't meet Blaidd the first time in Sifora River because I was probably to far in the story and he wasn't there anymore but still got the Sword. Awesome guide, thanks
Did you get his outfit too?
@@steveharvey1906 jepp. Got it too
THANK YOU! I had most of the requirements done already but could not figure out the rest. You are amazing!
This is a pretty good guide but it leaves out many key steps that will have you looking up other guides unfortunately.
1 how to open the portal to the Radahn fight.
2 when you finishe the fight and return to Ranni, you have to talk to her, exhaust her Dialogue, leave and come back to finder her gone and a new grace site, and then the tower to the north opens.
3 when you get the Ranni doll, when you get to the lift before the basilisks, at the grace site, theres an option to speak to the doll. You need to exhaust its dialogue tree to be able to unlock the next step.
Hope this helps, I know that when I did this I had like 5 different videos open because there’s very specific things that don’t get mentioned in this.
Thanks
Just got mine after like 5 hours from the start of this quest, thanks for the guide! super useful
wow, at last great step by step explanation, well done sir.
I GOT IT AFTER 1,5 YEARS !!! Thanks bro
Concise. Absolutely to the point, as all guides should be. Good work, keep it up man.
make sure u talk to do the doll at all the bonfires once u pick it up and exhaust all dialogue at each bonfire. u wont get invaded by blaidd unless u do this. hope this helps anyone who thinks their quest is glitched. something that is easily missed
Where the fuck is the bonefire??
That dragon drops the spell Adula's Moonblade which when combined with the Carian Regal Scepter (Boosts full moon sorcery) is sooo good!
Which dragon ? The ice dragon left after I almost killed it ..
@@jenova2916 thanks! Killed him ☺️
He dissapeared for me
Thank you im now the proud ownerof the Darkmoon sword Liked and subbed
IMPORTANT!!!! If you went to the rot zone and talked to blade by Radahn boss it glitches the game so Ranni isn’t in the game until after you kill Radahn as blade needs to be in both places at once but can’t. So try to avoid radahn until after this quest chain.
I killed Radahn before talking to Ranni, does that mean I can’t do this quest or I can’t get Blaid’s armor?
@@-kinxschlatt-7718 I don’t think so I don’t see blade when I went down the stairs… RIP who woulda thought suffering from success…
@@animalicon3535 ong😭
She isnt there for me neither so ima have to fight radda
@@-kinxschlatt-7718 no you still can, I beat radahn way before I even did the quest and I still got the sword
Luv the fact ur too the point and not unnecessary talking.
I kept hearing about this sword but learned I had to do a bunch of stuff to get it and kill multiple bosses so I kinda ignored it. I accidentally figured out how to get it myself today and I can't believe how OP it is since my Int is already like 38
I am dreading having to do all this shit tomorrow but I want it so badddd, my intellect is 70 btw and my strength is like 15😂
the most straight forward and clear guide i found
Bro I did everything but I couldn’t do kill astel guy cuz he was too strong I left to level up when I came back there was no coffin can you help
English is not my language, feel free to correct. I talk to Ranni in begining, killed Loretta first and after killed Rennala but Ranni tower is still locked, i travelled to Caelid to kill the dragon and pick some itens, maybe kill Radahn to open the quest ??
Are you sure you got the right tower?
Itens is spelled wrong it’s “items”
You're at the wrong tower I think
You are probably Renna’s rise
Your probably at the wrong tower you need to go in the middle one
Thanks man, I just got the moonlight sword 5 sec ago. Came here first to thank you.
This quest line also unlocks a different ending as well.
in 3.32 min
he start fight me ???
so i kill him xd
we will see what the end.
most helpful guide i’ve watched on youtube, i didn’t have to question a thing
Doors blocked off for me at 8:41
Finally found what was missing.. I took the Carian inverted statue to Carian Hall. Complete that and the door will open when you return. hope it helps.
go to the Table of Lost Grace it works for me
@@YusijeN where at in the table of grace?
Just teleport to the Table and then teleport back - it should unlock the fog
thanks man, i had the same problem but the carian statue unlocked the door for me too. king!!
@@MetflixBrasil ok thanks bro. What about all the other blue doors though? I ended up being able to finish this quest and I just got the dark moon greatsword but the other blue doors around the world are still closed and I can’t get through.
Such an excellent guide! One missing piece- in order to use the portal at rhe Impassible Greatbridge you must first activate thr Grand Dectus Lift
Left Medallion is in Fort Haight, a peninsula of a lake below minor erdtree south of 3rd church of marika
Right medallion is Fort Faroth, Caelid, southwest of dragonbarrow minor erdtree.
Once dectus lift is active, the Redmane Castle portal activates
I was reading the Fextralife guide for this sword and it does it a lot differently 😤 This method seems so much better
Me watching this with my lvl 20 prisoner “I’ll get it”
I’m watching this with a level 32 semi quality build wanting to restart as a sorcerer 😭
i hate to have to look up stuff like this but watching your videos is so satisfying. thanks a bunch!!!
The only thing I actually did in this questline was talk to all NPC's, I missed Seluvi's questline, I missed the half-wolfs questline. I had just talked to all before I didn't even do Nokron or anything. I met the wolf the second time at Radahn. This was after talking to Ranni the first time and him as well. He told me about her slumber, I slayed Radahn and then I could wake her up after getting the black knife. She left, I got miniature Ranni and did the rest to geet Moonlight sword, it's actually pretty ez to get in FromSoft standard.
Thank you for your help.
I did the ENTIRE quest, including talking to her at the end, and just didn’t pick up the sword?
Lmao.
Oh well, I have the legendary armaments achievement now, so all is good.
If renna's rise isn't open you have to go to the carrian study hall
I finally got the "Dark Moon Greatsword" just by following the instructions according to the video. Thank you! 😁👍
Such a nice voice and seriously to the point without skipping anything necessary. Thank you so much!
Thank tou very much!About two hours i needed to get the sword❤️
Guy's every single guide is leaving out a really important part in the begging Renna is not going to be in the tower as long as you didn't finished Blaidd the Blaidd quest, and Blaidd going to attack you instead of talking with you if you attacked the sleeping bear nearby his location and it's knocked him of the ruins (in this case head to the church of vows )
This comment needs to be pinned, Renna was not in the tower and I could not find out why. Thank god this comment set me on the path. I had to atone at the church of vows and then she was at the rise. I think I may have killed that sleeping bear and Blaid lol
You fix my game. Thanks
It was broke for me too , took me like 2 hour's to figure it out xd.
But happy to help
the second boss fight is physically impossible if you dont either have a long ranged or extremely high dps/damage attack
Blaidd's actually super easy if you're a mage, which I would assume you probably are if you're doing this quest. You can pretty much just spam Rock Sling and he'll never really do anything lmao.
Me as a melea: ._.
It's amazing how you could have skipped a lot of scenarios without noticing the importance of them.. and damn.. it remembers the first time i played dark souls and entered the painted world or the Ringed City, it was so unique and complete, with so much to explore.. so many bosses and unique enimies..
You can cheese the baleful shadow by sneaking from the elevator area to get behind him and poison mist him like a ninja.
i am genuinely having a harder time defeating the mimic boss than radahn, absolutely soul crushing
Just for ppl who may of done what I did I didn’t get the second item from the mage or speak to the wolf guy in the spot underground. You can safely do this quest from the point of beating the boss of Carelid, sorry for poor word choices but hope that helps peeps who think they can’t get the sword
I beat Radhan and still haven’t been able to get information on Nokron
I almost rage quit at the last boss mentioned ngl, bro said not as tough as the last one💀💀
Nice guide and thoroughly explained (there were some others that really didn't explain it very well just expect you to know where it was)
The electricity died out in the middle of my playthrough and sent me back two levels (though I did save) now blaidd is not there.
I have the worst luck, I will just do this in my next playthrough.
took me over a week to beat all the bosses and get it but definitely worth it
Excellent Excellent walk through. Clean and concise video. Thank you for this.
you: this boss isn't as hard as the previous one...
the game: let's make it harder
The wolf guy wasn’t there what do I do
I know is was a year ago. U find him
This final boss has had me flipping out for the past 45 mins. I literally cannot avoid being picked up and eaten
3:33 i dont see the wolf guy standing there
Me either
Now im stuck
I killed him what do i do
@@123theSoldierme2
Guys you killed big boss so this question progressed further automatically….. just skip wolf part and carry on
Thanks Man! What a ride!
Man that's some long questline lol
And definitely for end game with that amount of estus require for the lake of rot part
but really the effort behind this video is unbelievable thank you
I dont see that wolf spirit guy there.. two of them are there but not him xd
Just opened this area and watching this, OMG gonna be there awhile, ty for the video,
Why can't I access the portal at 4:16? I've done everything up to that point but tells me portal can't be accessed
same
@@majora7520 i travelled to rannis rise grace again and then it opened i also couldn't find her in the tower so yes you have to reload the world
@@valtress96 reload the world? I did the same steps as you but still doesn’t work.
@@eeqsr the witch will have to leave her place and it will get replaced by site of grace
That was the only sword I need to get my achievement thank you so much
Would have been nice if you mentioned the part where giving the letter of introduction to Sellen would allow you to skip the Misbegotten Warrior and Crucible Knight fight in Redmane castle
I forgot to pick it up after i did the quest thanks man😂
Ok so my playtrough seems very very strange of this quest. I first did Blaidds questline a bit, than did the School after that I did the Festival. After that I did meet Ranni but Blaidd did not show up as a Spectral in the her Tower to speak with. After that I met Seluvis he gave me only the Potion with the mission, after that I went into the meteor hole did everything there, went back up spoke to Ranni and finished the quest somehow. Than I went visiting Seluvis again for his Sulivis Introduction item and he was dead!? And got his Armour and items, after that I went to speak to the Big Smith he told me I am a good servent etc. Visited the place where Blaidd is prisoned, went back to the Smith and he told me he will betraye Ranni. Jeah seems very strange of way my mission is going xD (btw i never did complete the mission with the potion for Seluvis).
I might be in the same boat with you Blaidd did not show up for me either as I visited Ranni after the festival
Same
This guide was extremely helpful thankyou
80 hours in and about lvl 130, I'm using Dark Moon Greatsword and just grabbed Lusat's Glintstone Staff after using Meteorite Staff for a while. I have the Moonveil Katana as my second weapon in the right handed slot so I'm switching out between DMGS and Moonveil in my right hand, meanwhile I have Lusat's staff and also Meteorite Staff in my left hand casting Comet Azur with Lusat's and casting Rock Sling, Magic Glintblade, Terra Magicus and Adula's Moonblade with Meteorite. I'm going to mix some other good pvp spells in there as well if you have any suggestions please let me know.
Also, I want to know if Lusat's Glintstone Staff costs 50% more fp even if you only have it equipped to a slot and are currently using Meteorite Staff instead to cast spells. Thanks in advance.
Thank you so much. This was as nerve-racking as ordering soup from the soup guy.
