Brass Shield Elden Ring Focus, Drop Rate – (Find Early Guide)

Looking for the Brass Shield in Elden Ring? Our guide will show you where to find this great early game shield, which is one of the best overall medium shields.

If you’re like me and not particularly skilled at avoiding attacks, finding a good shield is essential. If you started your game as a Vagabond or Confessor, you already have a decent shield to begin with. But even these stalwart classes can benefit from upgrading to this particular one.

Let’s move to guide:

Brass Shield Elden Ring Focus:

The Brass Shield is one of the first things you’ll see when starting your journey in Limgrave. You’ll find it on your way to Stormveil Castle and it’s guarded by Godrick Soldiers. These are easy to spot because they wear red and green tabards and carry shields. They’re not too difficult to defeat, and upon doing so, you can loot the shield for yourself!

Here’s a map of Limgrave with the area circled that you can farm shielded Godrick Soldiers early on.

Elden Ring Drop Rate:

The Brass Shield appears to have a drop rate of around 1%, according to an unofficial EldenRing wiki. However, this won’t affect you too much, as we’ll further explain in our Elden Ring Brass Shield Explanation.

While it may take some time to grind, if you’re running a heavy armor build, the Godrick Soldiers are sure to drop other items that will benefit you greatly;

HACK* I found a Gilded Greatshield while taking the picture at the top in the red circle.

So even though it may be tedious, you’ll end up with more than just one shield.

On average, the Brass Shield is one of the best medium shields you can have. It boasts 100 physical protection and over 50 in every energy defense except for Lightning. While some other shields may be better in one category or another, players will appreciate the versatile defense this shield offers.

You can now find Elden Ring on Windows PC (via Steam), PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series XS.

Where To Find Brass Shield In Elden Ring?

• In 231 kills, Approx. 0.8%, 2 dropped by Godrick Soldiers are seen to be carrying it.
• Raya Lucaria Soldiers seen to be dropping it
• The “Gatefront” Site of Grace, located in western Limgrave near the forest and Stormgate, is an easy early location to farm. To find it, spawn into the game and turn around so that you’re facing southeast. You should see four Brass Shield-carrying Godrick Soldiers in the Gatefront Ruins area; two are in a small fenced-in area to the right of the road, one is on the road carrying a horn, and last one is sitting by a fire nearby. They should be easy to defeat and loot for items.
• If you’re looking for a good place to farm Raya Lucaria Swords, the best bet would be outside the academy where nearly all the soldiers carry one.
• You can consider these focus for bronze shield elden ring as well.
