Nightrider Glaive is a Halberd in Elden Ring. The Nightrider Glaive scales primarily with Strength and Dexterity and is a good Weapon for horseback combat based on its size and length. This allows the weapon to keep its power. When on ground, the Spinning Slash can be implemented to make a damaging spin action and deal a follow up attack.
A jet-black glaive with a blade as weighty as a bludgeon. Weapon of the Night's Cavalry who ride funeral steeds.
This glaive excels at weighty slash attacks that crash into foes, making it a powerful weapon even on horse back.
