LocationOutside Leyndell Colosseum

Altus Plateau

Starting Site of Grace: West Capital Rampart

Before you go

Reach Leyndell, Royal Capital.

For the original capital route, enter Leyndell after obtaining two Great Runes and visiting the Two Fingers. From Avenue Balcony, descend toward the greatbow knight, climb the enormous stone dragon wing and continue up to West Capital Rampart.
From West Capital Rampart, follow the walkway south past the gargoyle and golden sapling toward the enormous tree root.
Pass beneath the root and climb the western slope toward the colosseum, where Duelists patrol.
At the colosseum entrance, go left around the outside wall and examine the corpse in the last dark alcove for Star Fist. The entrance corpse with Ritual Shield Talisman is a different pickup. No arena match is required.
Star Fist also remains on this colosseum corpse after Leyndell changes into the Ashen Capital. The old West Capital Rampart approach above describes the original city layout.

Notes

A paired Strike weapon requiring 12 Strength and 8 Dexterity, with a weight of 3.0. Two-handing one copy equips a fist in each hand.
Standard physical damage strongly favors Strength over Dexterity. Heavy is the Strength-focused physical option; Occult is an Arcane option that retains its innate bleed.
Has 45 listed Blood Loss buildup on Standard affinity. Arcane does not improve that buildup unless the weapon gains Arcane scaling, such as through Blood or Occult affinity.
Paired attacks use individual buildup modifiers. Two hands connecting does not automatically mean twice the menu's listed buildup, and enemies immune to bleeding still take only the attack damage.
Shares Iron Ball's quick heavy punches. Fully charged heavy attacks are useful for repeated close-range pressure and can benefit from Axe Talisman and Spiked Cracked Tear.
Its short reach matters against thin legs and large bodies whose damageable part sits beyond the fists. Move closer or change your angle if a paired attack misses.
The default Endure skill costs 9 FP. It briefly improves protection and resistance to interruption, but does not stop HP loss or make an unsafe trade harmless.
Upgrade with regular Smithing Stones to +25. Can use compatible Ashes of War. Grease or a weapon enchantment can be applied while using an affinity that allows weapon buffs.
It has a critical rating of 100. Its charging attacks and innate bleed are separate from critical attacks such as ripostes.
The colosseum pickup remains obtainable after the capital becomes covered in ash. Neither defeating a Duelist nor taking part in a PvP arena match is required.
