Elden Ring: How to find the Frozen Needle rapier

Regardless of your or your weapon's level, status effects are one of the best and most consistent ways to deliver damage in Elden Ring. Despite its mild modification in patch 1.04, Bleed is the current monarch, but Frostbite should not be overlooked. The Frozen Needle rapier is one of the few weapons that deal with innate frost damage. It may not do much posture damage, but because of its quick attack speed and low stamina requirements, it's a fantastic technique to administer Frostbite frequently.

The Frozen Needle may be found in the Kingsrealm Ruins, which are located in the northern part of Liurnia on the western coast of the Lakes. You've gone too far if you've found Iji as part of Ranni's questline. Return and turn left after passing through the phantom wall. There is an illusory floor near a huge cluster of bushes in the northeastern part of the ruins in the northwestern area of the ruins.

Attack or roll into the floor to uncover the boss door beyond, which leads to a Royal Revenant, one of the game's most dangerous foes. The thing can spew poison, swing its arms a few times, or jump across the room flailing its arms more than a dozen times if it's enraged. Any of its assaults will melt lower-level characters in a couple of strikes, but there is a method to the fight. You'll stun and do light damage to the Revenant if you cast any miracle with Heal in its name, allowing you to recover.

To obtain the Frozen Needle, unlock the entrance at the back of the Revenant's arena and plunder the treasure chest. The weapon requires 11 strengths and 18 Dexterity to wield, and it may be upgraded with Somber Smithing Stones. It also deals 60 Frostbite buildup every hit, regardless of whether your opponent was hit. The R2 of the weapon fires a small ice bullet that does not waste Focus Points, extending the range of a short weapon.
