Misbegotten Warrior and Crucible Knight
The castle’s ordinary plaza fight starts with a Misbegotten Warrior and adds a sword-and-shield Crucible Knight.
Location and access
Redmane Castle plaza
Misbegotten Warrior and Crucible Knight
Redmane Castle plaza
Starting Site of Grace: Chamber Outside the Plaza
Before you go
The Radahn Festival must be inactive for the duo boss to appear.
Follow Caelid's southern road east to Impassable Greatbridge, facing Redmane Castle. The duo boss must be present outside the Radahn Festival for this reward.
If the festival is already active, use the sending gate beside the bridge, defeat Radahn and return to Jerren in the chapel behind the plaza. Finish his dialogue, rest or leave, then return for the castle's normal state.
For the ordinary defended entrance, cross the bridge while avoiding the siege fire. The main gate is shut: take the path around the castle's right exterior, past the bats to the rear ladder.
Climb the tall ladder, drop into the upper castle route and enter the stable room. Open its shortcut door, then use the next ladder and drop into the courtyard.
Pass the courtyard's Lion Guardians and climb the stairs toward Chamber Outside the Plaza. Activate the grace in the side room before entering the adjoining boss plaza.
Defeat both Misbegotten Warrior and Crucible Knight in the same encounter to receive Ruins Greatsword. Killing only the first enemy does not complete the reward.

Notes
Defeat both enemies to receive Ruins Greatsword. Killing the Misbegotten alone does not finish the encounter.
The fight is available while the Radahn Festival is inactive. An empty festival plaza is a different castle state, not evidence that this reward has disappeared.
If the festival has already begun, defeat Radahn and finish Jerren’s dialogue in the chapel behind the plaza. Reload the castle afterward to restore its ordinary enemies and boss encounter.
The Misbegotten is already attacking while the Crucible Knight joins the fight. Make progress against the first opponent early, but keep enough stamina to respond when the second arrives.
Once both are active, keep them on the same side of the camera. The Crucible Knight’s reach makes a long attack against the Misbegotten risky when the knight is already close.
The knight’s later tail follow-up can catch a dodge that avoided the sword. Wait for the whole sequence before healing or committing to a heavy attack.
