How good you are atElden Ringcomes down to how well you’re able to fight the terrifying enemies that roam the land, so a goodSword Lanceis handy. With theShadow of the ErdtreeDLC, there are plenty available for you to choose from.
The Coded Sword is one of the best you’re able to find, and for good reason. This weapon is fantastic for dealing Holy damage, and luckily, it’s not hard to get your hands on. We’re here to show you where to find the Coded Sword.
Where to find the Coded Sword in Elden Ring
The Coded Sword can be found on a throne inside the Leyndell Royal Capital. The West Capital Rampart Site of Grace is the closest, so if you have this one unlocked, simply fast-travel to it, or make your way there on your own. If you’re having trouble, the West Capital Rampart is marked on the map below.
From this Site of Grace, head outside and to the right to be taken down a flight of stairs, and go down the next flight of stairs directly ahead. Go forward through the small hallway until it opens up to the outside and turn left onto the small platform outside. Jump down onto the roof below, and then the ground.
You’ll be on a pathway covered with fallen bricks. Go up this pathway and jump onto the wooden shed roof to the right, and up into the stone castle again. There will be an entrance slightly to the left, and you can go inside.
Once you’re inside again, turn left. You’ll go through the room with the fireplace and in the next room with the cabinet and armor, take the door on the right. In the next room, circle halfway around the large roundtable and into the doorway on the left.
Inside this room is the throne you’re looking for, with an item you can pick up situated directly on it. Pick this up, and it’s the Coded Sword you’ve been looking for.
Coded Sword Location in Elden Ring
The room inside the Royal Capital of Leyndell is the only location you’re able to pick up the Coded Sword, so don’t worry about running around to other spots. It’s important to note that you need to pick up this sword before you defeat Maliketh, because you cannot get it in Leyndell, Ashen Capital.
The Coded Sword scales entirely with Faith and has the Unblockable Blade Weapon Skill. It deals incredible Holy damage, and while it doesn’t have the range of abow, you still get ranged attacks that you normally wouldn’t get with a one-handed sword. It’s definitely worth picking up, even if you’re just kicking off your playthrough.
