Blaidd has been a reliable pal ever since your first meeting. Likewise, you’ll find out that he’s one of Ranni’s most trusted companions. Still, there’s a way for you to get his gear. Here’s our Elden Ring guide to help you obtain Blaidd’s armor set.
Where to find Blaidd’s armor set in Elden Ring: Location, explained
Blaidd’s armor set is found on his body in front of Ranni’s Rise. To get his armor, you need to defeat him. But before that, you need to summon Blaidd by putting the Dark Moon Ring on Ranni’s finger.
After a very long trek through multiple regions and secret dungeons, you’ll finally arrive at Moonlight Altar in Elden Ring. Down below the tunnels of the Cathedral of Manus Celes, you’ll find a bloodied Two Fingers, as well as a life-like doll of Ranni. If your character already has the Dark Moon Ring from Rennala’s chest, then the ring can be put on the doll’s finger.
While no Beyonce song will play, Ranni still manifests in front of you. She tells you to follow the path of the Elden Lord, and that you should tell Blaidd and Iji (the golem smith at the road going to Caria Manor) that she loves them dearly. Apart from affecting the ending that you’ll get in Elden Ring, this instance will also trigger something else in Blaidd.
If you return to Three Sisters/Ranni’s Rise, you’ll hear someone speaking in an anguished tone. It’s Blaidd, and he claims that Ranni is connected to his very being. With Ranni gone, he’s been driven mad by grief. Once you approach, he’ll immediately attack.
Note: As of now, I’m not sure if there’s a way to actually prevent Blaidd from turning hostile. What I can tell you is that I’ve only encountered him in Mistwood Ruins/Forlorn Hound Evergaol and Caelid/Redmane Castle. Likewise, using a Celestial Dew in the Church of Vows does not work since this is a kill that’s part of a story/quest.

How to defeat Blaidd in Elden Ring
Blaidd has powerful attacks, but he’s also very slow, allowing you to predict his next moves. He does have a special attack where he leaps into the air, followed by a Frostbite eruption in the area that he lands on.
How to get the Black Wolf Mask in Elden Ring
After killing your friend-turned-foe, you’ll receive Blaidd’s armor set in Elden Ring, as well as the Royal Greatsword. While there’s no wolf helmet named after Blaidd, you can get a good substitute if you go to Seluvis’ Rise (the southernmost tower in Three Sisters).
Use Torrent to double jump on the ruined wall and get to the ledge. You can pick up the Black Wolf Mask here. You can see how the full set and the mask look on my character in the image below.
Note: I also talked to Smithing Master Iji near the Road to the Manor Site of Grace and he simply apologized for what had happened, so I guess that’s that.
