Greatblade Phalanx

Greatblade Phalanx conjures three large magic glintblades in an arch above you. They wait there and launch themselves at the nearest enemy in front of you.

It needs 29 Intelligence. It suits a sorcerer or spellblade who wants extra hits while fighting, and the bigger blades deal a lot of stance damage.

Where to find it

Defeat Bols, Carian Knight in Cuckoo’s Evergaol in Liurnia of the Lakes.

Item description & lore

A Carian royal sorcery used by the enchanted troll knights, who swore an oath to the young Rennala and fought at her side.

Notes & tips

  • Slightly less total damage than Carian Phalanx, but each blade hits harder, which helps against flat defences early on.
  • Cannot be active at the same time as Carian Phalanx or Glintblade Phalanx.
  • Deals about 10 stance damage per blade, much more than the other glintblade spells.
