Somber Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone is one of the many types of upgrade materials. This material is usually used to strengthen special weapons (Armaments).

The effect it provides can increase the Armaments attribute by up to +10. And behind this use, FromSoftware as the developer also provides an interesting lore for this material, you know!

It is said that this material is an ancient dragon stone that has lost its color. This comes from the scales of the Ancient Dragonlord which have become fossilized and petrified.

Its existence itself is sacred and becomes an heirloom of its master Farum Azula. It is said that the king's throne is in a different time dimension.

And it is so strong, this material is even able to bend these dimensions! On this basis, this material is widely used to strengthen weaponry in the universe Elden Rings.

So when the Somber Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone is added to weapons, its ability can create a supernatural power that is capable of destroying even gods!
