Players will need all the help they can get when combating enemies and bosses in Elden Ring. One such item, the Venomous Fang, is incredibly useful in close-quarter combat that deals physical damage.
The Venomous Fang falls under the Claw Weapon category, adding poison damage to attacks. The Venomous Fang is perfect for duels, but it was banned from the Colosseum since players misused it. However, players can still get the Venomous Fang to complete the main story. This guide covers everything there is to know about getting the Venomous Fang in Elden Ring along with other helpful tidbits.
How to get the Venomous Fang in Elden Ring
To get the Venomous Fang in Elden Ring, follow these steps:
- Look for the Abandoned Cave in Caelid.
- The cave is located in the middle of Caelid, northwest of Redmane Castle. The cave can only be accessed via an ashen white tree branch. Traversing on the broken tree branch requires incredible precision.
- After reaching the cave, unlock the Site of Grace.
- Drop down and turn left towards a massive Rot Lake. Players can traverse this lake if they have Preserving Boluses to prevent an instant death.
- Keep heading straight towards the Stake of Marika. Here, turn right and keep heading straight by sticking to the ledge.
- Drop down the ledge and enter a small tunnel.
- Follow the tunnel to come across a diverging path. Kill the rats there and turn right.
- Follow the butterflies and use the dead bodies to climb to a ledge.
- Clear all the enemies and locate the dead body at the end of the platform.
- Interact with the dead body to acquire the Venomous Fang.
Players must eliminate many enemies to acquire the Venomous Fang, so they must prepare beforehand to avoid getting killed instantly.
