Stormveil Castle: Godrick the Grafted

Stormveil Castle is a crucial legacy dungeon where you will face Godrick the Grafted. This area is populated by Stormveil Soldiers and Wolves, making stealth a viable approach. If spotted, soldiers will sound an alarm, alerting others. An elite Godrick Knight patrols the center, yielding 260 Runes, a Partisan, and Godrick Knight Greaves upon defeat.

  • Bosses in Stormveil Castle:
    • Margit the Fell Omen
    • Godrick the Grafted
  • Key NPCs and Quests:
    • Roderika: Meet her at the Stormhill Shack outside Stormveil Castle. She gives the "Sitting Sideways" Emote and Spirit Jellyfish Ashes.
    • Gostoc: Talk to him in the room beside the main gate. He steals 30% of your runes upon death in Stormveil Castle before Godrick is defeated, banking them across playthroughs. Killing him before Godrick returns all stolen runes.
    • Nepheli: Found outside the Secluded Cell Grace, down the path towards Stormveil's Main Gate. She can be summoned for the Godrick the Grafted boss fight.
  • Progression: Defeating Godrick the Grafted is one way to obtain a Great Rune, which is required to progress to Leyndell, Royal Capital.
