How To Get Coded Sword In Elden Ring?

Capital Rampart To West Capital Rampart

As we’ve mentioned before, Leyndell, Royal Capital is one of the hardest locations in the Elden Ring. So, during all this, you’ll face countless enemies strong and weak. And if you plan on fighting them, learn How to Parry to show them who’s the boss. We recommend that you roll past them as it will be time-consuming and you might die a few times.

Coded Sword Stats

But that’s not all. The sword has a unique ability called the Unblockable Blade Ability. This ability is as awesome as the name suggests. By using this special attack, you’ll be cutting through the enemy lines even if they’re blocking your attacks. But that’s not all that you get with this ability. It has a broken range.

But this isn’t what makes this straight sword awesome. It deals 85 holy damage with 100 critical damage. And to wield this sword, you only need 20 faith.
How To Reach Leyndell, Royal Capital In Elden Ring
If you haven’t made it to Leyndell yet, and want to do so to get to the Coded Sword’s location, then don’t worry, you’re not lost. To get to Leyndell, Royal Capital, you’ll need to fight two main storyline bosses and a mini-boss.
The Main Bosses that you need to fight are Godrick the Grafted and Renalla Queen of the Full Moon. Without fighting them, the area to Leyndell, Royal Capital won’t be unlocked. After fighting these two, and before entering Leyndell in the Elden Ring, you’ll have to fight the Draconic Tree Sentinel.
So your to-do list to obtain Coded Sword in Elden Ring should be like this,
- Defeat Godrick the Grafted.
- Defeat Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon.
- Defeat Draconic Tree Sentinel.
- Entering Leyndell
Godrick The Grafted

Godrick the Grafted is a multi-staged boss. Once you’ve defeated him, he will drop the Godrick’s Great Rune. If you want to use the boost that this rune gives, then you can take this rune to Divine Tower which is located to the east of Stormveil Castle.
Once you’ve activated the Great Rune, you can equip it at any Site of Grace, and for that, you’ll need the Rune Arc. The Great Rune gives a +5 raise on all attributes. It will be quite helpful in your journey. Although, if you die, the Great Rune’s boost is deactivated.
Rennala, Queen Of The Full Moon

Once you defeat both of her stages, you’ll get the Rennala’s Great Rune. Rennala is a hard-to-kill boss that managed to get to A-tier in our Demigod Bosses Tier list.
Draconic Tree Sentinel

But before you can even enter the city, you’ll be welcomed by Draconic Tree Sentinel. The Draconic Tree Sentinel isn’t there to greet you, but to fight you. Without fighting the Draconic Tree Sentinel, you can’t enter the city. Draconic Tree Sentinel is an S-tier boss according to our Field Bosses Tier List. So make sure that you’re fully prepared to fight him. He can put up a tough challenge for you.
After defeating all three of the bosses, you can finally enter Leyndell, Royal Capital, and get to the Coded Sword’s location.
Verdict
The Coded Sword is the perfect item if you are following the Faith build. Although, it doesn’t require you to fight any of the bosses to get it. But getting to the Sword’s location itself is quite hard. You have to go through a swarm of enemies in Leyndell, Royal Capital.
Once you get this sword, you become invincible of sorts. No one will be able to block your attacks. It will greatly increase the damage output of your arsenal and will further help you in the game.
