One of the more difficult challenges players might find in the early game of Elden Ring is found in the Forlorn Hound Evergaol named Bloodhound Knight Darriwil. One of the most recognizable moves that this enemy has is his ability to briefly turn invisible as he dashes towards you, similar to how the Old Hunter’s Bone would allow you to vanish when dodging in Bloodborne. A very cool move that players will be happy to know they can also get this ability in the form of the Bloodhound’s Step Ash of War. This item is a reward for beating a boss in the overworld, so players will need to know where and when to find this encounter to get their hands on this skill. This guide will tell you where to find the Bloodhound’s Step Ash of War in Elden Ring.

How To Get The Bloodhound’s Step Ash Of War In Elden Ring

You will find the Bloodhound’s Step Ash of War in the northeastern part of the Caelid region. Next to the Farum Bridge and north of Lenne’s Rise is a smaller bridge that you will need to travel to at night. During the nighttime, a Night Calvary boss will spawn on this bridge, wielding a giant halberd. You will need to defeat the Night Calvary, who will drop the Bloodhound’s Step Ash of War upon their death.
