Acquired From

• Buy from Blacksmith Lenigrast in Majula for 1200 souls.
• Dropped by hammer-wielding Forrest Grotesques in Shaded Woods

Hints and Tips:

• An Enchanted Falchion can be found behind Vorgel the Sinner after defeating the Belfry Gargoylesin Belfry Luna.
• Very good early game weapon for a DEX-build in most PVE and PVP situations, but unreliable against bosses. The Falchion's moveset allows you to easily stay in range of your opponent while attacking. Because you step forwards slightly with each swing, it's difficult for enemies to escape your combo.
