Legendary weapons, or weapons that are extremely powerful, often come with high stat requirements and are located in extremely dangerous places. All of the above can be said for the Eclipse Shotel, a Dexterity and Faith scaling shotel weapon.

You will need access to the Mountaintops of the Giants, so you will have to defeat Morgott the Omen King to gain entry.

As you navigate through Castle Sol, you will come across a Site of Grace right before a church altar. This altar has the Eclipse Shotel you seek.
