Quick Links
NieR: Automata's opening introduces 2B's mission. After deploying and engaging in melee combat, you'll acquire a one-handed and a two-handed sword.
The two-handed weapon, the Virtuous Treaty, is a powerful early-game sword temporarily lost after the prologue. However, it's easily reacquired once free-roaming is unlocked in the subsequent chapter.

Where To Find the Virtuous Treaty in NieR: Automata
This early-game weapon is located near your initial spawn point after exiting the bunker. Upon landing in the city ruins, descend to the lower area. To your left, you'll see a highway above the nearest access point. Proceed towards the highway, utilizing the ruins to climb onto the road. This path leads back towards the factory.
Descend into the factory and follow the grassy path to the main structure. On the left, you'll find another access point with stairs leading upwards. In this upper area, locate the destroyed bridge where you encountered the Goliath enemy. The Virtuous Treaty is embedded in the ground at the bridge's edge.
Your discarded body is located just to the right of the sword, allowing you to recover any remaining consumables from the prologue.

Virtuous Treaty Stats in NieR: Automata
- Attack: 300-330
- Combo: Lt 2 Hv 2
This two-handed sword, typical of its type, delivers wide-ranging attacks, impacting multiple enemies for significant damage, albeit with a slower attack speed. Upgrades can potentially make this one of the game's highest-damage weapons, provided you adapt to its slower pace. It can also be effectively incorporated into combos with faster weapons via heavy attacks, supplementing the slower attack speed with high damage bursts.
