Pure Bladestone Notes and Tips

  • Can be traded to Sparkly the Crow  for Ring of Longevity
  • Farming Route: Start at The Ritual Path archstone (4-2) and head into the first area with a Reaper enemy and his summons. Take the left bridge and roll off towards the wall to land by a doorway, Cloak spell or Thief's Ring recommended so you don't aggro the Reaper when you hit the ground. Go through the doorway and up two flights of stairs. On the second landing is a false wall, you can see the outline of an arched door that is bricked up. Strike it to reveal the passage. Outside is a single Black Skeleton with two katanas. Dispatch it and follow the path right back up to the archstone to reload the area and make the run again. As a bonus there is a Titanite Lizard and the Primeval Demon spawns on this path as well. 
  • For simplest farming route: Start at The Ritual Path archstone (4-2) and head up the stairs to entrance to Adjudicator boss fight. Even with Providence Ring drop rate is rather low.

      I tried getting it, and spent 7 hours on it, and I quit. But when I got back on, just got it in 2 tries from the hidden wall black skeleton. **** you game

      • Anonymous

        so weird that these basically aren't in the game. just a highly rare drop from a very specific enemy, and another behind the only true illusory wall in the whole game. I wonder why

          Got pure after just 7 kills of killing the one skeleton behind the illusionary wall. Neutral WT, soulform and Providence ring

            I grinded for 2 1/2 hours in normal tendency and no item boosting equipment. I got the pure blade stone and several chunks. The same day I played 4-1 with my wife and she picked up the Pure Blade stone after I killed the black skeleton before the boss. She's a mage. RNG is crazy sometimes.

              lotta comments that luck and item drop increase equip doesn't really seem to matter and even WT does't seem to matter. id been farming for this in soul form forever and i was having no luck. saw the comments about none of the usual drop increases working so i thought id try farming in human form and got it in 3 kills. definitely could be coincidence but id never seen anyone compare drop rates for soul vs human form so i gave it a try. now ive finally got that ****ing ring.

                try farming as a human instead of soul form. i farmed for hours in soul form and no pure stone. killed adjudicator's red skelly three times in human form and got it. could be coincidence, don't care, i finally have my ring.

                  I tried to kill the skeleton behind hidden wall 20+ times with Searching sword and providential ring, no luck, after reading some comments to unequip both the sword and the ring and actually go after the skeleton before Adjudicator I got it in 4th time. I've seen too many comments with almost same results to think it's a coincidence

                    was trying to play through without looking at a wiki, but damn, i would never have gotten a single one of these. drops from only two enemies, one of which is behind the only real hidden wall in the ENTIRE game

                    I suppose I was just really not supposed to upgrade certain weapons, lol?

                          If you pull the black skeleton at the top of the stairs into ritual path, you get better drop rate. I use soul remains and it pulls him in. You can verify because you will get shards, but if you cross into the other area you will get soul remains instead.

                            I must just have stupidly good luck. I've had two of them drop back to back on a pure white world just while grinding souls.

                              All I can say you will get it eventually!!! Just keep playing. Took me 140-150 tries before I got one, no rings, Black Tendency. About 1.5-2 hours. I recommend 20 minute sessions, then take a break. It goes really fast if you use the lava bow and holy arrows and do the Adjucator up the stairs route.

                                The black skeleton on the hidden path in 4.2 before the primeval demon has a much higher drop rate. You need full black Tendency for this
                                Got it on my 4th try. He is tougher so gear up. I kept throwing soul remains which i spent hours collecting on the first skeleton near the Adjucator to make the fight easier.

                                  I just looted the pure Bladestone off the black dual katana skeleton in the tower where you also find 1 bow and one regular silver skeleton. I've been farming the one at the entrance to the Adjucator Boss for days with no drops aside bladestone shards and soul remains. I've got pure black WT und almost pure black ST. No rings or LSoS. I was actually clearing the whole map of 4-1 so I could fight phantom Satsuski and the drop was a very pleasant surprise! Good luck to all of you.

                                    I did it! PS3 Original DS.
                                    After reading all of the tips in the forum:

                                    - I threw away the LSoS (gave it to Thomas)
                                    - equipped only Thief ring and Prayer ring to enhance Gods Wrath
                                    - I dropped all Shards, Chunks but 5 of each
                                    - I went to PBWT
                                    - I already had PBCT
                                    - I already had 60 luck (due to soul farming earlier)

                                    - I farmed Phantom Black, Hidden wall and Adjudicator black skeleton.
                                    - After 5 tries, Hidden wall skelly dropped PBS

                                    I'm still annoyed that it took nearly 200 tries but now I can at least close the game forever..

                                      Close to giving up on PS3. I already have the Plat on PS5 but wanted to also get the "legacy" trophy.
                                      Farmed the Adjidicator, the hidden wall and the black phantom black skeleton and got only shards chunks and uchis.. this is mad.

                                        Took 190 runs on ps3 with PBWT. I farmed the skeleton behind the hidden wall on 4-2. I also got 3 uchigatanas. I was very close to just giving up and doing something that's actually fun.

                                            That drop rate is not influenced by your luck level. With gold coin glitch on, luck stat at 71000, granted me one gold coin for each fat official, I still had to farm more than a hundred squeletons for the stone (adjudicator). Ring and sword of searching totally useless. 500 k souls and 100 Uchi for the pain. Player luck among character luck.

                                              I remembered spending hours trying to farm this in the original game. Now playing through the remake the first time I take out the black skeleton in 4-2 and I get this drop… Didn’t even need it because I’m playing a strength build.

                                                Funny enough I got 3 pure bladestones from farming the skeleton before the Adjudicator and still have not gotten enough chunks to fully upgrade the weapon I want it for...

                                                  Only got one in my first playthrough and had no idea it was rare, used it on a ****ing rapier...

                                                  • on ps3, at PBWT, with sword of searching in my off hand, it took my 46 runs to get the pure stone from skelly behind hidden wall. not nearly as long as i was assuming it would take, but it could have been quicker too, though. ah well.

                                                    • Drop-rate of this is absolutely ridiculous. I wasted whole evening and got only shards, chunks, uchis, but not a single pure one! Well, at least I leveled up like 20 times.

                                                        You don’t need a Pure Bladestone to get the platinum trophy anymore. They removed the Master Slasher’s trophy, because they knew they weren’t going to increase the drop rate and most people gave up on PS3.

                                                          And before anyone asks, the answer is no, the ring in the deluxe edition does not help with the drop rate of pure bladestone. I’m willing to bet that most of the people mentioning that ring don’t even have the deluxe edition. It does not help with acquiring extremely rare items faster. Your best bet is actually using no ring at all to get pure bladestone. I’ve seen lots of people saying they got it without the providential ring.

                                                              the drop rate HAS to have increased for this in the Remake from the Original right? a friend and I went through the game once and had 3 of them, 2 from the guard just before the adjudicator's entrance and 1 from the skeleton near the crescent falchion. it took me nearly 5 hours to farm for this in the original and yet no farming was required to get this in the remake, I just find that too coincidental.

                                                                          • Hi, I'm non professional, but I hope this will help those, who still struggle to get their FIRST PURE blade stone (I used this to get cloudstone chunks and bladestone chunks). I recently bought a PS5 and immediately ordered best PS5 game to this day - Demon's Souls. :-) I am type of colectible guy who want to taste almost every weapon in this game. :-D So one of the first steps to make powerfull weapons is hunting stones, expecially rare ones. I run my Royalty class around lvl. 80 with 7 lvl Luck (NG and offline). I cleared Shrine of Storms and make this world PURE Black. I tried to get rare blade stone chunks and pureBS, but couldn't get any. At the time I had around 40 Blade stone shards, I had zero chunks and zero pure. So I took 10 BS shards with me, 30 left by Thomas and started farming BLACK skelies (before Adjudicator boss and near Primeval Demon with Clink Ring and Ring of Avarice (in soul form). If I had more than 10 BS shards I would DISCARD them (keeping those 10). After i think 4 tries I got 2 chunks and 1 Pure. This Discarding trick worked quite well for bladestone chunks, Pure blades a cloud stone chunks. I must try i on Dragon chunks, those are too quite rare. :-( I hope this will help. :-)

                                                                            • Anonymous

I was wearing ring of avarice to farm souls and providential ring to try and increase my chance of getting pure blade stone shard to trade with snuggly for my longevity ring. I did this run about 50 times and never got the pure blade stone, mainly just soul remains, blade stone shards, uchigatana. I read a comment here that that said to not increase item discovery, so I took off the providential ring and BOOM within 2 more runs I got my pure blade stone shard.

You should start from Altar of Storms archstone and then work your way back. Its drop rate is much better than normal black skeleton.

                                                                                                  Put shrine of storms on PBWT and kill the skeleton outside the fake wall in the ritual path. You’re granted a lot of souls if you kill the reaper as well, about 23k in ng+. I got pure bladestone on my first kill of him, and I get pretty good drops overall, like multiple shards or chunks. You probably won’t get as lucky as I did with the first drop, but it’s not as bad as the ps3. That was like regurgitating cow **** that had been chewed up by a donkey.

                                                                                                  • Anonymous

                                                                                                      I had to kill the black skelleton behind 4-2 startpoint for about 60 times, in BWT, with 10 Luck, and the Ring for better dropchances.

                                                                                                      • Anonymous

                                                                                                        I recommend farming the reaper for souls and then walking to the illusion gate to kill the black skeleton. It is much slower than other ways, but you should get about 11,000ish souls per run if you kill the ray thing on the way too.

                                                                                                        • Anonymous

                                                                                                          I can confirm every black skeleton farm drops pure, chunks, and shards. Easiest farm if you're just looking for pure or chunks is adjudicator arch stone and go bakc up the steps - there is a black skeleton there. The second best method in my opinion since it's longer, but does yield a lot of souls per run is the black skeleton facing the cliff behind the illusory wall. I have gotten multiple pure from him within about 65 or so runs. I have gotten 4 just now within around the same amount at the top of the stairs from the archstone method. No providenial ring was used and I was in pure black tendency.

                                                                                                          • Anonymous

                                                                                                            I can confirm that this drops from the Black Skeleton at the very end of 4-1. I just got two drops in a row after about an hour of farming. This would seem to me to be the most efficient way of farming- I wasn't even in pure black world tendency, and was actually just trying to farm shards and chunks. A run takes about 20-30 seconds if you can kill the skeleton quickly.

                                                                                                            • Anonymous

                                                                                                              This is not rare in the remake in the way it was in the PS3 game. If you farm it in 4-2 pure black world tendency, there's a dual-katana skeleton behind the illusory wall in the stairwell by the first reaper. Pure black world tendency is key. Use the sky beasts and mokoto to get down below 30% hp, equip the morion blade and clever rat's ring, kill the reaper, then pelt him with arrows. Extremely good XP if you include the reaper and wear/cast xp boosting gear/spell.

                                                                                                              I had two pure bladestone within my first 10 kills. After farming for a bit, my storage has 68 shards, 3 chunks and 5 pure bladestones; the the numbers are off because I fully upgrade the uchigitana to sharp +5 (add 34 shards, 12 chunks and 1 pure), for a total of 102 shards, 15 chunks, and 6 pure bladestone. My luck is 7 and I don't wear the item discovery ring because it always drops something (item discovery doesn't effect what drops, just whether something drops, so you have more chances in the RNG game to get something good).

                                                                                                              • Anonymous
