How to unlock the Supreme Weapon Reinforcement achievement in DARK SOULS III - Definitive Guide

External image


This requires having Blacksmith Andre in Firelink Shrine upgrade a weapon to +10, which requires Titanite Shards, Large Titanite Shards, Titanite Chunks, and a Titanite Slab. You'll discover these items in increasingly greater numbers as you progress through the game.

You'll need 2/4/6 Shards (12 total), 2/4/6 Large Shards (12 total), 2/4/6 Chunks (12 total), and one Slab to get a weapon to +10.

There are eight Titanite Slabs to be gotten per playthrough:
•One from Siegward after freeing him from the prison cell in Ithyrill Dungeon (missable)
•One in the Grand Archives after pulling a lever to lower a bookcase
•One atop Archdragon Peak on the ground near Havel
•One in Archdragon Peak after killing The Nameless King in the area accessible immediately after
•One can bought for 30k souls from the Handmaid after defeating all four Lords of Cinder and placing their remains on their thrones
•One for killing the three Winged Knights on the roof of the Grand Archives (just before the steps that lead to Prince Lothric boss battle)
•One at the bottom of the double elevator closest to the Prince Lothric boss battle
•One from trading the Coiled Sword Fragment with the crow at Firelink

I have a Butcher Knife +10 and the achievement did not unlock. It does say 100% in the tracker. Let's hope this will either fixes itself or will unlock once I level another weapon to +10.

I have all the sorceries and I'm in the same position with that achievement. Something is screwy. I'm sure it will work itself out eventually.

Are you positive this can be done with a weapon that maxes at +5? I have the Irithyll Straight Sword +5 and nothing unlocked.

No. Thay was speculation. Youve confirmed it.

Will upgrading the Pyromancer Glove be the most practical way to get this achievement? All classes can use it right?

I'm not sure if that works. You could be the guinea pig :)

I need large shards & chunks though. I've just beaten Crystal Sage. What enemies in which areas can drop these items?

There's no real way to specifically target these. Just progress and they will drop (or be found) in greater quantities as you advance.

You won't really start seeing chunks until pretty late in the game. Lothric Castle after the Dancer.

100% has to be standard reinforcement. I have fully upgraded both a Pontiff Knight Curved Sword (Twinkling titanite) and the Darkmoon Longbow (Boss weapon, titanite scale) and neither of them unlocked the achievement.

Fully upgraded a Black Knight Glaive to +5, did not unlock. Looks like it does have to be the standard 10+ reinforcement. Which is lame because it says ANY weapon.

Upgrading the Pyromancy Flame is okay. I just got this achievement by getting it to +10.

Yup, just want to want to confirm that +10 on the pyro flame works.

Gear can be reinforced in a number of ways depending on the item in question. Regular gear will require 12 Titanite Shards, 12 Large Titanite Shards, 12 Titanite Chunks and 1 Titanite Slab to get it to max level. Regular titanite shards and large shards are fairly common drops as the game progresses, and will also be sold by the Shrine Handmaid when you return the Dreamchaser and Easterner’s ashes to her. Titanite Chunks are rarer but you can collect plenty from corpses late in the game, farm them from Rock Beasts in Archdragon Peak or buy them from the Handmaid when you return the Dragonchaser’s Ashes (from Archdragon Peak). Titanite Slabs are rarest of all – but you can buy one from the Handmaid when you return all four Lord of Cinder ashes to their thrones at Firelink. Then go to Andre the Blacksmith and upgrade your weapon of choice.

You can also upgrade rare/boss weapons with either Twinkling Titanite or Dragon Scales (need fifteen of each to go to +4 and then 1 Titanite Slab to go to +5). These are fairly rare to find, but can be bought from the Handmaid by returning the Dragonchaser’s Ashes or farmed from the Rock Beasts.

NOTE: WEAPONS OF THIS TYPE DO NOT COUNT FOR THIS ACHIEVEMENT, IT MUST BE A REGULAR +10 WEAPON.

All components of titanite are very easy to find, and are subsequently sold to the old woman in the Fire Temple after finding her special items. Location Archdragon Peak, third bonfire. We go straight, kill the fat man in a cassock, you will see a rise to the left. We run along it, jump off, run to the right, kill or ignore the lizard (not disposable ones, like stone ones, maybe a baby wyvern, they can drop flickering titanite). We boldly open the chest and go up the stairs. There will be a dragon body with the desired piece of titanite and a Man in Havel's armor and a Dragon Tooth. By killing him we will get his shield and tooth. Also, 1 piece will be not far from the 4th bonfire of this location, after the boss Nameless King. We return to the blacksmith, improve the weapon by 10 and the trophy is yours.

Up to the maximum level we mean up to +10. Weapons with a maximum level of +5 do not count toward the achievement.

You can also upgrade your pyromancer’s hand to +10 and the trophy will drop (it’s good if you go with a weapon that you upgraded to +5 and use pyromancy)

A piece of titanite for leveling up to + 10 can be obtained for completing the Onion Knight quest after defeating Yorm.

Another Titanite Piece can be obtained in exchange for the “Twisted Sword Fragment” from the crow. Once per playthrough.

There are at least 4 +10 titanites in the game. (one near the fallen dragon with the knight, 2 after the boss of the nameless king, 3 in the location of Lothric, the younger prince). One for Siegward's quest. If you kill the patches, his ashes fly out, give them to the merchant and you can buy them for 30,000

Another piece lies in the Great Archive! On the second floor there is a lever, the wall moves away near the monks with candles on the 1st floor and there is a chest.
