Quick answer: Cavalrybane is in a chest in Crimson Forest near the Trail of Cages bell. It increases damage dealt to mounted enemies by 25%.


Where to find Cavalrybane

Look for Cavalrybane in a chest in Crimson Forest, close to the Trail of Cages bell. Loot the chest to put the accessory in your inventory.

The chest has its own pin on the Crimson Forest interactive map. Click the pin to see its details.

Rest at the Trail of Cages bell before you head for the chest. Bells work as both fast travel and respawn points, so if you die, you come back close by.


Cavalrybane item card: Type, effect, and description

Cavalrybane is an “Offensive” accessory. Its effect line reads:

“Increases damage dealt to mounted enemies by 25%.”

The item description reads:

“A relic left behind by a Mandate hero who met his end standing firm against a cavalry charge. The lingering Sha-Chi within still makes warhorses whinny in terror and refuse to advance.”


How to polish Cavalrybane

Polishing raises the bonus against mounted enemies from 25% to 40%. It changes only the number. The accessory still does the same thing.

Polish 1“Increases damage dealt to mounted enemies by 40%.”14,688 Remnant Dust plus a Tainted Crystal Shard

Polish 1 costs 14,688 Remnant Dust and a Tainted Crystal Shard. Quick Hand Zhang sells the shard for 7,440 Remnant Dust. You can also track one down yourself with the Tainted Crystal Shard locations.


What Cavalrybane is good for

Cavalrybane boosts damage solely against mounted foes, making it a specialized choice when riders are in the fight. For instance, it helps during Jing Ye’s mounted phase. In other encounters, another accessory will generally make better use of the slot. To find more ways to improve your output, see how to increase damage in Phantom Blade Zero.

Three accessory slots are open from the start, so you can equip Cavalrybane without replacing your other choices. Consult the complete accessories list for every accessory’s effect and location.

Don’t mix this accessory up with Cavalrybane, Elite Shadow Warden. That is a boss in Meigu Lake with the same name, not an item.
