Found in one of the last Legacy Dungeons in the game, this bizarre headpiece can boost all bubble-based skills in addition to giving a large Holy damage negation boost. Specifically, the Envoy Crown can be found in Miquella's Haligtree , which can be accessed via the north of the Consecrated Snowfi

Tarnished may stumble upon the Cliffbottom Catacombs in Liurnia of the Lakes near the Purified Ruins, which is Hyetta’s second location in Elden Ring . The whole cave can be explored without trouble. However, there is one room inside guarded by an Imp Statue.

The Rampart Tower in Stormveil Castle is an important location as it serves as a hub for some secret areas that interconnect. One of those is a Stonesword lock room filled with two enemies that wield greataxes. They're not too tough to defeat. To get to this room, refer to the images below.


Bloodstained Dagger : A great no-nonsense choice. Since it's a basic weapon, it can be upgraded to +25 with regular Smithing Stones , but unlike the basic Dagger, it passively applies Bleed. Not only that, but when combined with another Ash of War, the Bloodstained Dagger can apply multiple status effe

There are two notable uses for Stonesword Keys in Volcano Manor. One is for unlocking the area leading to the Dagger Talisman and the other is for the Crimson Amber Medallion +1 . Both are considerable talismans in the game, and here's how to get to the Gargoyle locks to obtain these items.


The expansion has introduced two new powerful Greatshields, and with the latest balance patches, Elden Ring's post-launch content appears to be wrapped up. While the Greatshield tier list has remained largely accurate since the game's release, some entries have been expanded with additional details about their strengths and updated rankings reflecting both the base game and its DLC. Additionally, images for every Greatshield in the game have been added to the list for better clar

In any case, players will find the Golden Order Greatsword in this cave , which is one of the most stylish and rewarding finds in the game. It's not really a game-changing weapon, but a lot of players can consider it a trophy of some sort. Moreover, there are plenty of other consumables in the cave, such as Thawfrost Boluses and Freezing Grease .

The dark cave is notable for housing the full Mushroom armor set whose helmet is quite substantial for some niche overpowered builds that can one-shot most bosses. Apart from that, players can also find the Kindred of Rot's Exultation in the cave which is also crucial for Poison or Rot builds. So players with uncommon builds will want to venture here ASAP.


Redmane Greatshield : Boasting some of the best Murk Farm nightreign Fire damage resistance of any Greatshield, the Redmane Greatshield is another great option, especially for builds that aren't looking for a heavier shield due to its moderate weight of 14. With its distinctive design, the Redmane Greatshield resembles a giant fang and bears the crest of a red-maned lion.

Main-gauche : Similar to the Wakizashi and Parrying Dagger, the Main-gauche unlocks a unique duel-wielding moveset when equipped in the off-hand – but only when you are wielding a Thrusting sword. Its innate ability to Parry attacks makes it great for offensive playstyles that suit a dual-wielding playstyle, but being found deep in the DLC makes it hard to acquire, and its stricter requirements to unlock the moveset make it less appealing than a Wakiza

However, Yura's questline can be quite long compared to a lot of other NPC questlines and will require you to unlock/reach the Altus Plateau, which is unofficially considered a mid-game area in Elden Ring . Once you encounter Yura at the Second Church of Marika in the Altus Plateau and talk to him, the Nagakiba is yours. To complete this questline in full, you'll need to meet with and help Yura out a number of times, so let's break down exactly what's involved in this questline below:

Haligtree Crest Greatshield : Offering the best Holy damage negation of any Greatshield, the Haligtree Crest Greatshield is a good piece of defensive gear, also boasting good Fire resistance. In addition, it is arguably the prettiest Greatshield in the game, thanks to its unique shape and elegant design. However, the amount of effort required to farm the item won't be worth it for many players.
