Serpent Katana

Confirm the boss sword reward

The video shows the sword arriving during repeated Serpent boss farming. Drop odds are not reliable enough to publish from the narration.

1. Reach the Serpent boss encounter after preparing a reliable damage and dodge setup.
2. Win the fight and open or read the reward notification.
3. Look for the exact name Serpent Katana in the weapon inventory.
4. Repeat the encounter only if the item is absent; do not count a different accessory as the sword.

Equip and compare the live weapon

Equip Serpent Katana and read its current damage, slot and any style interaction in the weapon panel. Test a basic attack and a Serpent move on a safe target before comparing it with your current blade.

Keep your old sword until this specific item is in inventory. The breathing style unlock and the boss reward are separate goals.

Do not confuse the Nightfall schematic

Nightfall Serpent Katana is a separate schematic hidden through an exploration route. Finding that pattern, crafting an upgraded blade and receiving the base Serpent Katana from the boss are different steps. Use the exact inventory name when planning materials.

Watch the reward in a full Serpent run

The playthrough obtains the sword during boss farming; use the footage to recognize the reward flow, then read the current game UI for stats and odds.
