For Elden Ring players looking for a strong heavy sword that dishes out blood damage, the Bloody Helice might be a good choice, especially for those with a build/class that prioritizes Dex, Arc, or Strength. This guide will go over where to find the Bloody Helice weapon, and its stats that players should be aware of.

Bloody Helice Location

Elden Ring players will need to head to Writheblood Ruins to find the Bloody Helice. The ruins are located in Altus Plateau, with the map below showing the exact location.

As for the closest Site of Lost Grace, players can fast travel to the Bridge of Iniquity, located just west of Writheblood Ruins. The Bridge of Iniquity is at the edge of Mt. Gelmir, a region west of Atlus Plateau.

Once players make it to the ruins, they can find a staircase that leads to a lower chamber where an optional boss fight takes place. When players walk through the greenish fog, they'll face off against an enemy called Sanguine Noble.

This enemy can deal blood damage to players, and if the blood gauge fills up, players will instantly lose a big chunk of their health. It might be best to keep some distance and use ranged attacks and make sure to summon a spirit to help out.

Once players beat the boss, they'll get 8800 Runes as a reward, and then they can open up the door in the dungeon to find a chest containing the Bloody Helice sword.
