Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Pata Location

The Pata can be found on a corpse next to the Church of Benediction.

  • From the Cliffroad Terminus site of grace, you can easily access the area by following the path above. The path is pretty straightforward for the most part, and you can avoid all enemies in the way.
  • From the Site of Grace, head straight as shown above on the map, and hug to the right side when you see this location. This is right next to the small forest where there are electric sheep.
  • Keep going further till you see a tunnel. Head into it but be careful because a tough enemy is waiting inside. You can either run past it or fight it.
  • On the left, you’ll see the Church of Benediction, which you can enter to obtain the Blessed Blue Dew Talisman.
  • Exit the church from the back, and you’ll see a corpse hanging from a ledge. Loot it to obtain the Oathseeker Knight Set as well as the Pata.

The Pata scales off both Strength and Dexterity and is classified as a fist weapon thanks to its dual-wield nature.

It’s very fast and pairs well with the Blade of Mercy talisman thanks to its consecutive hits that don’t take up a lot of stamina.

If fists aren’t your forte, we recommend checking out the Great Katana, which you can get early on in the expansion. For more on Shadow of the Erdtree, make sure to follow our dedicated section.
