Elden Ring Nightreign: How To Find Talismans

Talismans in Elden Ring Nightreign provide many buffs and bonuses. Learn where to find them with the help of this article.

In Elden Ring Nightreign, you will come across many items during your various expeditions. The Talismans will be one of such items. You can then equip them in two of the available slots. In return, the Talismans will give you some passive buffs and bonuses to help you ensure that you survive the day.

However, the bonuses will vary; they can be anything between a health boost, a better stamina recovery rate, or reduced cooldowns for skills. So, we will tell you where to look and how to find Talismans in Elden Ring Nightreign.

How To Find Talismans in Elden Ring Nightreign

Talismans do not spawn in a fixed location in Elden Ring Nightreign, and even their drops depend on chance. But everything has a pattern, and there are a few methods you can use to get the best chances possible.

The Scarabs

Once you have started an Expedition, open your map to locate a Fort icon. The Forts in the game are strongholds that host a few normal enemies and a relatively easy boss. Go to any such locations, clear out the small foes, and defeat the boss. After that, go to the Fort’s top floor, and you might find a glowing map on a table there. Interacting with it will give you a pop-up that says “a local clue has been added”. This will mark two or more Scarabs on your map.

These Scarabs should be close to your current location, so head over to them as soon as possible. You should be able to hear them when you get near them, which will make tracking a lot easier. Scarabs in Elden Ring Nightreign often drop Talismans, but even that will be randomized. So, you might not get the Talisman you want, or get something that is of no use to you.

Talismans in The Castle

If you think that the Scarab method is not exciting enough, then we have a different one for you. For that, open your map and locate the Castle location. Castles are massive points of interest with dangerous enemies and a boss. Mostly, you will find trolls there who will take the high ground and throw explosives at you. Additionally, if you want an alternative way, you should look for the underground entrance beneath the Castle’s bridge.

Once you are inside the Castle walls, you and your party will have to confront a Field Boss. Unlike the Fort, you should not take Castle bosses lightly. However, they are not too difficult either. After defeating the boss, go up the stairs.

There, you will find the inner gates of the Castle. Near it will be a chest that contains guaranteed Talismans. Similar to the Scarabs, the order of said Talismans will be randomized. However, you will be able to select one from three options.
