There is a huge variety of weapons in Elden Ring, with every type of build having at least a handful of viable armaments to choose from. While some of these weapons are earned through quests or purchased from vendors, the majority of them are found lying on the ground somewhere in the Lands Between.
Elden Ring: Rivers of Blood Katana Build Guide
Players who want to use the Rivers of Blood katana in Elden Ring can find details on how to build around the weapon in this guide.
The 
Scavenger's Curved Sword can be found about midway through Elden Ring, and its low requirements and Bleed buildup make it a weapon most players can try out immediately upon getting it. The low weight, decent reach, and Ash of War customization of the Scavenger's Curved Sword make it a great dual-wielding candidate for players who like to stick close to their target.
Updated June 11, 2024 by Erik Petrovich: In Elden Ring, the Scavenger's Curved Sword is considered by many players to be among the best Curved Swords in the game. Thanks to shortcuts, it's possible to get to the Scavenger's Curved Sword location relatively early, by taking the Liurnia-Altus secret path, then heading straight to Mt. Gelmir. To help players figure out how to get Scavenger's Curved Sword for themselves, this guide to this powerful Bleed weapon has been updated with a video walkthrough explaining how to reach its location from the Gelmir Hero's Grave site of grace – the closest site of grace to the Scavenger Curved Sword location.
Scavenger's Curved Sword Stats and Abilities
Weapon carried by corpse pillagers who prowl the sites of old battles.
The blade is tacky with blood and covered in hefty nicks, making it totally uneven. Life can be sinister indeed.
The Scavenger's Curved Sword is a fast-swinging and high-damage-potential armament that can be infused with a variety of different Ashes of War and scaling options. It has low requirements, very low weight, and causes Blood Loss buildup even when infused with other effects like Frost or Poison.

The Spinning Slash Skill weapon art is decent, but other options take advantage of the Bleed buildup better. The Scavenger's Curved Sword, as the name suggests, is a member of the Curved Sword family of armaments. It can therefore be dual-wielded with other weapons of this class such as the 
Flowing Curved Sword, the 
Magma Blade, the 
Wing of Astel, and the 
Eclipse Shotel.

Where To Get Scavenger's Curved Sword
The Scavenger's Curved Sword can be found relatively early in 
Mt. Gelmir. After reaching the First Mt. Gelmir Campsite Grace, head northwest through a ruined encampment and up a hill until you reach a stone bridge jutting out leading west.
Cross the bridge to reach a ruined campsite with a ladder leading up. There is a Grafted Scion here, so be careful to avoid it or be ready to face it down. At the bottom of the ladder leading to the rest of Mt. Gelmir there is a corpse lying by a burned cart - the Scavenger's Curved Sword can be looted off of this body. If you want a second one, you will have to go into NG+.
