The Bolt of Gransax is a legendary spear with a high attack and can allow players to deal lightning damage. Players can find it after venturing throughout the Altus Plateau, then going over to the Leyndell, Royal Capital, where adventurers will need to obliterate the Godfrey boss and head to several other Elden Ring Map locations to have the weapon in their arsenal. Let’s get started!
