Ancient Dragon Lansseax

Lansseax’s first appearance near Abandoned Coffin leads to a later fight on the open hill near Stormcaller Church.

Location and access

Hill south of Rampartside Path

Hill south of Rampartside Path

Starting Site of Grace: Rampartside Path

Reach Altus Plateau using both Dectus Medallion halves at Grand Lift of Dectus, or climb Ruin-Strewn Precipice and defeat Magma Wyrm Makar. Lansseax's first appearance near Abandoned Coffin is not the final reward encounter.
On the high ground west of Leyndell's outer wall, activate Rampartside Path grace. Head south toward the open hill near Stormcaller Church, east of Sainted Hero's Grave. The lightning and open space mark the dragon's later arena.
Approach the hill to trigger Ancient Dragon Lansseax, then defeat her for Lansseax's Glaive. If she retreated during the Abandoned Coffin encounter, look here instead of repeatedly resting at her first location.
This is a direct dragon reward. Searching inside Sainted Hero's Grave, killing its doorway assassin or fighting the sheep by Stormcaller Church does not award the incantation.

Notes

Defeat her at the later hill for Lansseax’s Glaive. The first retreat does not award the incantation.
If she has left Abandoned Coffin, search south of Rampartside Path rather than repeatedly resting at the original site.
Watch the ground where lightning is gathering. Dodging a claw does not necessarily move you out of the following lightning.
Her conjured lightning glaive covers a broad area. Leave room to move across or away from the sweep.
Avoid being trapped on the uneven slope beneath the body. Briefly unlocking the camera can help when the wings fill the screen.
Sainted Hero’s Grave and Stormcaller Church are landmarks, not the reward interaction. The spell is awarded for the dragon’s defeat.
