Elden Ring penalizes players for incorrect actions, resulting in severe consequences. Players may face difficulty if they lack the appropriate weapons to combat various types of enemies. Surprisingly, many players in Elden Ring overlook the significance of obtaining the Lance, a weapon that offers valuable statistics.

The Lance is an early game weapon that delivers a powerful blow. It is highly recommended for players to acquire the Lance as soon as they begin their journey, although it requires fulfilling certain prerequisites before it can be effectively used. Taking this into consideration, this guide presents a detailed, step-by-step approach on acquiring the Lance in Elden Ring, accompanied by additional helpful details.

How to get the Lance in Elden Ring

Players can get the Lance in Elden Ring by following these simple steps:

Fast travel to the Warmaster’s Shack.

Head north on the dirt trail.

Follow the dirt trail to the cliff, and then head east.

While moving across the cliff, keep an eye out for a tilted structure.

After locating the tilted structure, jump on it from the cliff.

Why get the Lance in Elden Ring?

An alternative means of obtaining the Lance is by journeying towards the Church of Elleh and exchanging it with Merchant Kale in return for runes. However, it is highly recommended that only players with surplus runes opt for this option. Runes can also be employed for the purpose of enhancing the character's level or acquiring the crafting kit.

The Lance is a Great Spear perfect for long-ranged or middle-ranged melee builds. Since the Lance does not have a blade, it is better suited for combat on a mount.
