Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree - How To Get The Velvet Sword of St. Trina

screenrant.com:

The Velvet Sword of St. Trina is one of the many new weapons you can get in 's DLC. This Straight Sword weapon deals both physical and magic damage, making it useful for a variety of character builds. However, this sword is buried deep in a hidden area underground, which may cause you to miss the weapon before you can use it against enemies.

Unlike Leda's Sword or other new DLC weapons, you do not need to complete a questline to get the Velvet Sword of St. Trina. Instead, the weapon will show up as a glowing blue orb on the ground in the open world. The path to reach the Velvet Sword will be littered with enemies you may need to fight or run past to reach the weapon.

Getting the Light Greatsword that formally belonged to Leda in the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is a bit more challenging than expected.

The path to the Velvet Sword of St. Trina starts when you travel to the Cerulean Coast Site of Grace, an area you have to reach by descending from the Gravesite Plain region. Go south from the Cerulean Coast until you reach a large sinkhole in the ground. Use Torrent to drop onto stone ledges slowly leading deeper into the hole and to another Site of Grace called The Fissure.

At this point, the caves beyond the Fissure are blocked by a golden wall as you try to explore further in 's expansive world map. This obstacle persists until you reach the Shadowkeep to the northeast, where a seal can be broken. Don't travel any further into the Shadowkeep, but rather use one of the many Sites of Grace within the fortress to travel back to the Fissure Grace spot.

You can take some time in the Shadowkeep to challenge enemies or bosses for Runes and valuable gear that may be useful for facing the enemies in the Fissure guarding the Velvet Sword.

When you return to The Fissure the golden wall should not exist anymore, opening up the path ahead. This allows your character to get to the Stone Coffin Fissure Grace Site a short distance ahead by simply moving forward and
