Lore

Location

• The Black Knife Catacombs is a dungeon situated in the northeastern landmass of Liurnia. The easiest way of getting to it is from the Frenzied Flame Village Outskirts site of grace. If you head east and look over the cliff edge, there’ll be some tombstones protruding out of the cliff. You can use these as make shift stairs to reach the catacombs.

Notable Info

• Main boss in the area is the Cemetary Shade, but there is a hidden boss, the Black Knife Assassin, who you may remember from Limgrave. To find the Black Knife Assassin, you’ll need to ride one of the back two guillotines up into a small corridor with a necromancer and a skeleton. Follow the path running or dispatching the enemies as you come to them and at the end of the path will be an illusory wall that will disappear when it’s attacked, revealing the secret boss room. If you have been following D’s quest line, you can summon him for this fight.

• The important key item: Black Knifeprint which is needed for Rogiers quest line. It is obtained when you defeat the Black Knife Assassin.

• The Rosus’ Axe can be found behind a sealed room near the beginning of the catacombs that requires two Stonesword keys to enter.
