Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree: How to Get Curseblade’s Cirque

Learn where to find and farm the Curseblade’s Cirque, a deadly new blood loss weapon, in Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.

The Shadow of the Erdtree DLC for Elden Ring introduces a variety of new weapons, including the unique Curseblade’s Cirque. This pair of circular blades excels at dealing rapid slashing attacks and building up blood loss on enemies. For players looking to add the Curseblade’s Cirque to their arsenal, this guide will detail where to find it and what makes it special.

Where to Find the Curseblade’s Cirque

The Curseblade’s Cirque is dropped by defeating specific enemies that wield the Curseblades. These foes can be encountered in various locations throughout the new Gravesite Plain region added in the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion.

Some notable spots to find Masked Curseblades include:

• On top of an arch just north of the Gravesite Plain Site of Grace
• Behind the Church of Benediction
• In the upper levels of Belurat, Tower Settlement

Each Masked Curseblade has a chance to drop the Curseblade’s Cirque when defeated.

For players looking to farm the Curseblade’s Cirque, there is a convenient Masked Curseblade located near the start of the DLC. This enemy can be found perched atop one of the three arched gravestones directly northeast of the Gravesite Plain Site of Grace.

Defeating this lone Masked Curseblade and resting at the nearby Site of Grace to respawn it provides an easy way to repeatedly attempt to obtain the Curseblade’s Cirque.

Curseblade’s Cirque Weapon Information

The Curseblade’s Cirque is a Backhand Blade weapon that scales primarily with Strength and Dexterity. It boasts a base physical attack power of 108 and causes buildup of the Blood Loss effect on hit.

This weapon can be upgraded using Somber Smithing Stones to increase its damage output. It also comes equipped with the unique skill Deadly Dance by default.

Deadly Dance is an aggressive spinning attack that has the wielder tear into foes using the circular blades held in each hand. Additional input from the player allows for a follow-up axe kick that further damages enemies.

This skill costs a modest 15 FP to activate and synergizes well with the Curseblade’s Cirque inherent blood loss effect to rapidly dispatch opponents.
