I need my first Crimson Beherit
Next action: Farm the strongest boss you can clear quickly
Do not force the highest listed drop chance if the run is slow. A repeatable boss route beats failed endgame attempts.

What should you farm next?
Start with your current account power. Crimson Beherit is useful only if the route you choose can be repeated without burning time on failed clears.
I can clear Niflheim bosses
Next action: Start with Nivaron or Gelaros
Current public drop tables give better Crimson Beherit chances on later Niflheim bosses, especially Nivaron and Gelaros.
I am still midgame
Next action: Use Nibble Island or higher bosses as a stepping stone
Better bosses improve the farm, but your clear speed should decide the route.
I already have Crimson Beherit
Next action: Move to Eclipse Island
Crimson Beherit is mainly useful as the Dragon Slayer route gate. After you have it, start the Black Swordsman and Sacrifice Piece step.
I want the fastest Dragon Slayer start
Next action: Farm Gelaros or Nivaron, then go straight to Eclipse Island
Crimson Beherit is the gate item. Once it drops, move into the Black Swordsman and Sacrifice Piece route instead of farming extra copies.
Broken Blade Crimson Beherit boss drops
Use this table when you already know you need Crimson Beherit. These drop chances come from current community drop tables, so test in-game as rates can change with updates.
| Boss / route | Location | Access | Drop chance | Best use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gelaros | Niflheim | Late-game boss route | 40% | Best target if your build clears it repeatedly |
| Nivaron | Niflheim | Late-game boss route | 25% | Strong practical target before Gelaros |
| Velik | Niflheim | Later boss route | 18% | Middle Niflheim option when stronger bosses are too slow |
| Ragaros | Nidavellir raid route | Raid route | 10% | Earlier chance before Niflheim farming |
| Magador | Nidavellir raid route | Raid route | 6% | Fallback raid target if Niflheim is not efficient yet |
| Moraros | Nidavellir via Demon Summoner NPC | Summoner route | 0.40% | Only worth using if it is the highest route you can access |
Pick speed before percentage
A boss with a higher reported Crimson Beherit chance is only better if you can clear it quickly. If Gelaros takes too long, Nivaron or an easier route may produce more useful attempts per hour.
Stop after the route opens
Once Crimson Beherit is in your inventory, the better next step is not more random boss farming. Move into Eclipse Island, Black Swordsman, Sacrifice Pieces, and the Dragon Slayer material chain.
Summon on the right difficulty
Black Swordsman is summoned with Crimson Beherit on Eclipse Island. Bring a strong, repeatable boss build so each summon converts into Sacrifice Pieces quickly instead of one slow fight.
Dragon Slayer route after Crimson Beherit
This is the reason to farm the item. Use the checklist as a route map from boss drop to Dragon Slayer and then into the broader Excalibur path.
| Step | Route action | Requirement | What to do | Proof to check |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Farm Crimson Beherit | Boss route | Choose the highest boss you can clear quickly and safely. | Crimson Beherit item in inventory |
| 2 | Go to Eclipse Island | Island unlock / route access | Use Crimson Beherit as the gate into the Dragon Slayer chain. | Eclipse Island access screenshot |
| 3 | Summon Black Swordsman | Crimson Beherit and area route | Fight the Black Swordsman route for Sacrifice Pieces. One guide reports the summon costs 1 Crimson Beherit on Easy and 5 on Hard (single source, needs in-game check). | Summon UI and boss reward panel |
| 4 | Collect Sacrifice Pieces | Repeated Black Swordsman clears | Current research points to 100 Sacrifice Pieces for Dragon Slayer. | Inventory count and forge requirement |
| 5 | Collect side materials | Buster Pieces, Diamond Ore, Fire Seeds | One guide reports roughly 1,000 / 500 / 250 Buster Piece I·II·III plus 15,000 Fire Seeds, crafted at Muspelheim. Diamond Ore is conflicting between sources (100 vs 400). Treat as reported until the forge UI is captured. | Forge UI with all material counts |
| 6 | Move toward Soul Forge and Excalibur | Dragon Slayer route stable | Use Dragon Slayer as the stepping-stone into Jotunheim, Sky Keys, Holy Grails, and Excalibur. | Soul Forge and Excalibur route screenshots |
Best route by player goal
Use this quick lookup when you are deciding whether to chase a harder boss, settle for a repeatable farm, or leave Crimson Beherit and continue progression.
| Goal | Best route | Decision rule |
|---|---|---|
| Highest chance | Gelaros | Use only if it is a fast repeated clear, not a one-off struggle. |
| Best practical late-game farm | Nivaron or Gelaros | Pick the boss where your time per clear is lowest after travel and summon costs. |
| Midgame fallback | Magador, Ragaros, or general bosses | Keep farming while improving weapon, race, element, and blessing slots. |
| Stop farming Crimson Beherit | After the item is in inventory | Move to Eclipse Island and the Black Swordsman route; extra copies are lower priority unless a new use appears. |
Build setup for Crimson Beherit farming
You do not need a perfect build to start, but the farm becomes much better when your weapon, race, element, and blessing support repeated boss clears.
| Setup | Weapon direction | Race priority | Element priority | Use it for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fast boss farmer | Katana speed or any stable DPS weapon | Damage, crit, or survival race | Fire, Thunder, Wind, or your strongest element | Repeat bosses with low downtime |
| Dragon Slayer prep | Buster or greatsword direction | Damage scaling race | Element that supports boss burst | Turn Crimson Beherit into the Dragon Slayer route |
| F2P safe route | Best weapon you can upgrade without wasting rare mats | Keep useful rolls instead of chasing perfect mythical rolls | Stable element over perfect element | Avoid farming bosses you cannot clear repeatedly |

Crimson Beherit matters because it starts the weapon route that later supports Excalibur.
When should you farm Crimson Beherit?
Farm Broken Blade Crimson Beherit when your next weapon goal is Dragon Slayer. If you are still fixing race, element, blessing, or basic weapon power, boss farming for rerolls may help more than forcing a rare material route too early.
Once you have Crimson Beherit, switch goals. The next useful tasks are Eclipse Island access, Black Swordsman clears, Sacrifice Pieces, Diamond Ore, Buster Pieces, Soul Forge progression, and then the longer Excalibur path.
