Dryleaf Arts Location in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

Dryleaf Arts is a new weapon in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, and it can be obtained fairly early in the DLC. You’ll need to head towards the Moorth Ruins by going south on the Moorth Highway, which is on the eastern side of the Scadu Atlas region. Do note that you’ll need to clear Castle Ensis in order to access this area.

As you enter Scadu Atlas, keep walking north towards the Site of Grace, and you’ll find the Monk’s Missive and the May the Best Win gesture.

Head to the Moorth Ruins to find the NPC Dryleaf Dane, and then use the May the Best Win gesture in front of him to trigger a mini boss fight. Upon defeating Dryleaf Dane, you’ll be rewarded with the Dane’s Hat and the Dryleaf Arts weapon.
