Blasphemous Claw Lore Description

Lore Description
"A slab of rock engraved with traces of the Rune of Death.

Can deflect the power of the Black Blade.

On the night of the dire plot, Ranni rewarded Praetor Rykard with these traces. Should the coming trespass one day transpire, they would serve as a last-resort foil, allowing Rykard to challenge Maliketh the Black Blade, the black beast of Destined Death."

Staggers Maliketh the Black Blade

Elden Ring - How to Use Blasphemous Claw

Simply add the Blasphemous Claw to one of your Quick Item slots and press the Use Item button whenever Maliketh the Black Blade's attack is about to connect during close combat. Deflecting his attacks with this item will leave a short opening when Maliketh is staggered, giving you chance to perform a counter.

Maliketh's sword will glow yellow to signal that it's an attack that can be parried with the Blasphemous Claw.

You can obtain the Blasphemous Claw after defeating Bernahl when he invades at the Crumbling Farum Azula. He appears at the tower to the south of the Beside the Great Bridge site of grace.

Note that Bernahl will not invade if you defeat Maliketh before going to his location. If you progress the story to the Capital of Ash, the only way to retrieve the Blasphemous Claw is by starting a New Game Plus save.
