Elden Ring is overflowing with weapons, but we’re hungry for the best-of-the-best. Legendary Weapons are the unique, weird, ultra-powerful tools of monster destruction we crave, and they’re incredibly rare. With only nine Legendary Weapons to find in this 100+ hour game, you can easily miss out on a new favorite. From the returning Moonlight Greatsword to an oversized sword more than a little reminiscent of Game of Thrones, these are some of the most unique and awesome weapons in the game. And you’ll earn an achievement / trophy for finding them all. Let the hunt begin.
