Serpent-Hunter

The Serpent-Hunter is a long great spear with pure physical damage and strong Strength scaling. Its special trait is that it emits a blade of light when used against great serpents, which makes it the go-to tool for one particular fight. Its skill is Great-Serpent Hunt.

It was sought out by a lord’s own men, hoping to stop their master once his ambitions had turned to greed.

Where to find it

It lies on the ground inside the boss arena of Rykard, Lord of Blasphemy at the Volcano Manor on Mt. Gelmir, right after the fog gate.

If you do not have one in your inventory or storage it will reappear in the same spot, so you always have a way to fight Rykard with it.

Item description & lore

When their lord’s heroic dreams decayed into plain greed, his followers went looking for a weapon that could put an end to him.
