Among all the Ash of War abilities in Elden Ring, Raptor of the Mists stands out as a top choice in the defensive category. Its unique skill allows players to evade damage by launching into the air, making it a valuable asset for the Tarnished.
If you’re eager to obtain this Ash of War, you’ll need to assist Yura in battling the Bloody Finger Ravenmount Assassin. This opportunity arises toward the conclusion of Yura’s questline.
Defeating the Ravenmount Assassin will earn you the Ash of War: Raptor of the Mists. Let’s discuss the precise steps needed to acquire it in Elden Ring.
Locating Raptor of the Mists in Elden Ring
To embark on Yura’s questline and obtain Raptor of the Mists, you will first need to visit the Seaside Ruins. Yura can be found near the overpass to the northeast of this area.
Initiating a conversation with him will automatically kick off the quest once you’ve gone through all his dialogue.
Your next task in Yura’s journey involves confronting Bloody Finger Nerjus. For this, head to the battle area near the river by Murkwater Cave.
This fight may be challenging initially, but Yura will soon join you. With his assistance, you’ll be able to defeat Nerjus quickly. As a reward for your victory, you’ll receive the Reduvia, a fantastic dagger that scales with Dexterity.
Once you’ve finished off Nerjus, you can find Yura again in Raya Lucaria, located in Liurnia of the Lakes. To reach him, interact with the bloodstain situated on the bridge to the north of the area.
This interaction will teleport you to the arena where Yura is currently engaged in a fight with the Ravenmount Assassin. Your mission is to assist him in taking down the assassin.
Successfully defeating the Ravenmount Assassin will reward you with Ash of War: Raptor of the Mists, in addition to a Rune Arc and a Furlcalling Finger Remedy.
Utilizing Raptor of the Mists in Elden Ring
Before applying Raptor of the Mists to any weapon, ensure it’s a melee weapon. Once equipped, this Ash of War grants a stealthy advantage by making the user momentarily disappear from view.
If you still find yourself under attack, Raptor of the Mists allows you to evade damage by leaping into the air. Each cast costs 14 FP.
