The Onyx Lord's Greatsword is a Curved Greatsword in Elden Ring. It becomes available in the middle of a run.

The Onyx Lord's Greatsword is forged from golden-hued meteoric ore and conceals gravity-manipulating magic, a weapon unique to the Onyx Lords, an ancient stone-skinned race said to have risen to life when a meteor struck. It drops from the Onyx Lord at the end of the Sealed Tunnel. It deals physical and magic damage, adds bonus damage against gravity-type enemies, and its charged second heavy attack ends in a crushing overhead slash. Its unique skill, Onyx Lord's Repulsion, plunges the blade into the ground and flings enemies away, the reverse of Gravitas. It suits a Strength and Intelligence build.

Skill


Onyx Lord's Repulsion costs 27 FP. The wielder stabs the sword into the ground, then stabs again to set off a gravity well that blasts surrounding enemies away. The explosion deals magic damage that the Spellblade set boosts. It works as the reverse of Gravitas, pushing foes out instead of pulling them in. It is exclusive to this weapon.

"Thrust the armament into the ground to create a gravity well. In addition to dealing damage, this attack sends enemies flying away."

Suggested Build


Use wide slashes on groups and fire Onyx Lord's Repulsion to clear space, covering its long, interruptible wind-up.

Stats Strength to 40 first, then Strength toward 80 (54 when two-handing) alongside Intelligence 50, Vigor 50, Endurance 24, Dexterity 16
Affinity Cannot be infused; it keeps its own scaling.
Talismans Starscourge Heirloom, Stargazer Heirloom, Axe Talisman, Bull-Goat's Talisman

Notes


"Greatsword forged from golden-hued meteoric ore. The blade conceals gravity-manipulating magic. A weapon unique to the Onyx Lords, a race of ancients with skin of stone who were said to have risen to life when a meteor struck long ago."
