Anri's Straight Sword is a unique straight sword in Dark Souls III.
In-Game Description
- Sword precious to Anri, another Unkindled. The dullest type of blade found in the ruined land of Astora.
- Only, it was once the sword of an earnest noble figure, and its attacks are boosted by that elusive, essential property unique to humans: luck.
- Skill: Stance
While in stance, use normal attack to break a foe's guard from below, and strong attack to slash upwards with a forward lunge.
Availability[]
- Dropped by Anri of Astora upon killing them.
- Found on Anri's corpse in Smouldering Lake if they are told of Horace's location without killing him.
- Given to the player by Ludleth of Courland after assisting Anri in defeating Aldrich, Devourer of Gods in their world.
- If following this method and Ludleth dies before the player obtains the sword, it will become unobtainable.
- Found within Gwyn's honorary tomb in Irithyll of the Boreal Valley if Yuria of Londor's questline is being followed. After performing the marriage ritual on Anri's corpse, reload the area.
Characteristics[]
Anri's Straight Sword is unique in that its attack power scales with the wielder's Luck without the need for a Hollow infusion. Simultaneously, it boasts the auxiliary effects of a Blessed infusion, slowly restoring the wielder's health over time and inflicting bonus damage against undead enemies, as well as preventing skeletons and Skeleton Swordsmen from reviving.
