The Blades of Stone are a Gravity sorcery in Elden Ring. They are one of the expansion's additions, found in the Land of Shadow.
Blades of Stone is the gravity sorcery of Commander Gaius, a product of his friendly rivalry with Radahn in their youth. It pulls jagged clumps of rock from the earth right beneath a locked target, dealing standard physical damage instead of magic, and a charged cast adds two more eruptions that travel further toward the foe. The eruptions do not pass through walls and can miss enemies rushing straight at the caster, so it works best against targets holding position at medium range. The Meteorite Staff boosts it and the Godfrey Icon strengthens the full charge, and in PvP it serves as a mixup because most gravity sorceries share similar casting animations. It suits gravity builds that want a hard-hitting physical option.
Effect
Pulls blade-like clumps of rock out of the ground beneath the target; charging adds two more eruptions in a row. Each cast costs 18 FP and 29 stamina and takes up two memory slots.
