The Magma Blade is a Curved Sword in Elden Ring. It becomes available in the middle of a run.

The Magma Blade is a curved sword with a blade fashioned from the lava of Mt. Gelmir, an armament of the man-serpents that no human could have made. It is a rare drop from the Man-Serpents wielding glowing orange blades in Volcano Manor. It deals physical and fire damage and scales better with Strength than Faith. Its unique skill, Magma Shower, conjures magma that hits several times and can be boosted with fire incantations and talismans. It suits a Strength build with enough Faith to wield it, or a Faith build that leans on the ranged lava.

Skill

Magma Shower costs 12 FP. The wielder slashes in a twirling motion while scattering magma all around, and an additional input adds two more spinning slashes that throw out even more. The slashes and the magma pools deal fire damage around the wielder, and the Talisman of the Dread boosts the skill. It cannot be parried. No other weapon carries this skill, and it cannot be replaced.

"Slash at foes in a twirling motion while scattering magma all around. Additional input allows for a follow-up attack."
