What is the ghost weapon in Elden Ring?

In Elden Ring, the Ghostflame Torch is a unique weapon that players can find and use. This weapon is primarily scaled with Dexterity and is particularly useful for illuminating dark areas and inflicting both physical and magic damage.

The Ghostflame Torch is a metal torch that burns with a cold ghostflame. It was a tool of the Fallen Hawks who prowled the underground rivers. When the band’s last embers were used up in their long search, they began to burn the bones of their fellows, acquiring the cold ghostflame, but sealing their fate as dwellers of the underground for all eternity.

The Ghostflame Torch can be found on a body at Nokron, Eternal City. To find it, you must start from the beginning of Nokron, Eternal City, entering from the Meteorite Crater. Once you get to the first set of roofs in Nokron, you will see a derelict tower off to the right of the roof ramp.

You will need to jump from the ramp to the tower to reach the torch. An ideal position is to jump up onto the square platform, aim diagonally toward the corner of the tower, run and jump (holding sprint as you jump). There is no other way to reach the Ghostflame Torch if you proceed to the lower roof platforms of Nokron. There is no way back up except to start over from the Crater again.

Just like previous From Software titles, all Weapons in Elden Ring have Stat requirements that must be met in order to wield the Weapon effectively. You cannot, for instance, use the Skill of a Weapon if you don’t meet its requirements, so plan accordingly, and look for Weapons that you can use effectively. Scaling is how much damage is added to a Weapon due to your investment in a specific Stat like Strength or Dexterity for example.

Elden Ring also handles this in a similar manner to the Souls franchise with “S” being the best Scaling, followed by “A”, “B”, “C”, “D”, and “E”. So, if you’re exploring the dark corners of the Lands Between, keep an eye out for the Ghostflame Torch. It might just light your way to victory.
