Obtained by Completing Ansbach's Questline

The Obsidian Lamina can be obtained by completing Sir Ansbach's questline and picking it up from his body. You will receive this unique weapon along with Ansbach's armor set and the Furious Blade of Ansbach incantation.

How to Get the Obsidian Lamina
1
Talk to Ansbach at the Main Gate Cross.
2
Get the Secret Rite Scroll at the Storehouse, Fourth Floor of the Shadow Keep.
3
Give the Secret Rite Scroll to Ansbach at the Storehouse, First Floor.
4 Ansbach Storehouse Invasion Signs
Help Ansbach defeat Leda in the Shadow Keep.
Note: The summon signs will not appear if you helped the Hornsent against Leda, but you will still be able to get the Obsidian Lamina at the end of Ansbach's quest.
5 Defeat Leda and her allies at Enir-Ilim.
6 Defeat Promised Consort Radahn at the Divine Gate atop Enir-Ilim.
Note: You do not need to summon Ansbach to get his items drops. You are guaranteed to get them as long as his gold summon sign appears outside the boss room.
