Elden Ring Guide: Securing the Elusive Grossmesser Weapon

Obtaining the Grossmesser in Elden Ring can be a formidable challenge, and players may need a mix of luck and arcane prowess to wield this weapon.

Securing the Grossmesser in Elden Ring can be quite the daunting task. This unique weapon can’t be simply purchased from in-game Merchants, rewarded after conquering a formidable boss, or claimed as a prize following the completion of an NPC Quest. Instead, intrepid Tarnished explorers must venture into a specific catacomb within an early-game region and face a certain Skeleton wielding the coveted Grossmesser. Not all Skeleton enemies in Elden Ring possess this rare weapon, so players must prepare for a rather challenging hunt.

How to Acquire the Grossmesser in Elden Ring:

In Elden Ring, obtaining the Grossmesser weapon requires confronting a particular Skeleton enemy within the Catacombs of Weeping Peninsula. However, the process is not straightforward, and one’s fortune, Item Discovery, and Arcane Stats play a crucial role in securing this prized possession.

The challenge lies in the fact that there’s only around a 2% chance that the Skeleton will drop the Grossmesser. As a result, determined Tarnished individuals may find themselves repeatedly journeying between the Sites of Lost Grace and persistently engaging the Skeleton until the Grossmesser emerges.
