They can seriously beef up your damage and survivability, which is crucial when facing off against Elden Ring’s toughest foes. But tracking down the best ones and figuring out how to use them effectively can be a challenge. So, let’s break it down, shall we?

Marika’s Soreseal
Great-Jar’s Arsenal
Shard of Alexander
Erdtree’s Favor +2

Rotten Winged Sword Insignia
Graven-MassTalisman
Flock’s Canvas Talisman

Radagon’s Soreseal: Talisman Elden Ring
First up, we’ve got Radagon’s Soreseal. This bad boy is perfect for melee-focused builds, boosting your Vigor, Endurance, Strength, and Dexterity. But beware, you’ll take a bit more damage in exchange. You can find it in Forth Faroth, but watch out—it’s a dangerous zone.
You can get Radagon’s Soreseal by searching a dead body in Forth Faroth, south of Dragonbarrow Minor Erdtree, which is in the far northeast of Caelid. But it’s really risky there, with tough enemies. So, if you’re starting out, try getting Radagon’s Scarseal first. You can get it by beating the boss in Weeping Evergaol, located in the northwest of Weeping Peninsula.
Marika’s Soreseal: Talisman Elden Ring
Now, if you’re more of a caster, Marika’s Soreseal is the way to go. It amps up your Mind, Intelligence, Faith, and Arcane, but you’ll suffer a damage penalty when you get hit. You can snag this one in Elphael, Brace of the Haligtree, but it’s tucked away in a late-game area.
You’ll find Marika’s Soreseal in Elphael, Brace of the Haligtree at the lowest level of the outer walls, near the Prayer Room site of Grace. You will need two Stonesword Keys to open the fog door and acquire the talisman. This is a very, very late-game area, so consider the lower-level Marika’s Scarseal until this point. You’ll find it under a waterfall in the far north of Siofra River, near the Dragonkin Soldier boss.
Great-Jar’s Arsenal location: Talisman Elden Ring
Next on the list is Great-Jar’s Arsenal, which boosts your maximum equip load, perfect for heavy weapon enthusiasts. You’ll find it in Caelid, but keep an eye out for some sneaky NPC summon signs along the way.
To find the Great Jar, head to the far north of Caelid, following the canyon path from the northern Siofra River lift. Along the path, you’ll encounter three hostile NPC summon signs. These signs can be easy to miss since they’re not directly at the Great Jar’s feet and may be hidden among bloodstains. Speak to the Great Jar, summon and defeat all three invaders, then talk to the Great Jar again to claim your reward.
Shard of Alexander location: Talisman Elden Ring
If you’re all about weapon skills, then the Shard of Alexander is your new best friend. But getting it involves a bit of questing, including a showdown with Radahn and a magma bath. Trust me, it’s worth it.
Obtaining this talisman involves several steps, as you’ll need to complete the entire Iron-fist Alexander, Warrior Jar questline. Here’s what you need to do:
- Find Alexander initially on Stormhill.
- The crucial step in his quest is defeating Radahn.
- After the fight, speak to Alexander at the site of Grace.
- Next, find him in Liurnia on the cliffs above Jarburg. Free him using an oil pot.
- Alexander will then move on to Mt. Gelmir, where he’ll be bathing in the magma in the far west of the area. Speak to him here.
- You’ll have the option to summon him to fight the Fire Giant.
- Whether you summon him or not, you’ll encounter him on the floating walkway near the Dragon Temple Lift Grace in Crumbling Farum Azula.
- Speak to him there, and he’ll challenge you to a duel.
- Defeat him to earn the Shard of Alexander, which will lead you to obtaining the talisman.
Erdtree’s Favor +2 locaiton
The Erdtree’s Favor talismans boost your maximum health, stamina, and equip load, significantly enhancing your survivability. This allows you to wear heavier armor while maintaining higher health. However, obtaining the Erdtree’s Favor +2 talisman is quite late in the game. You can find it in Leyndell, Ashen Capital, after defeating Malekith. The talisman is located on a tree in the far east of the area, near the lift to the Forbidden Lands and East Altus Divine Tower. It’s guarded by several Tree Spirits. The direct path to the talisman from Leyndell is blocked, so you’ll need to backtrack from the Forbidden Lands site of Grace.
Radagon Icon location
The Radagon Icon reduces spell casting time, which is excellent for caster builds. If you’re having trouble casting spells without getting hit, the Radagon Icon can greatly assist you. You can locate it in the Raya Lucaria Academy, at the top of a ladder near the Debate Parlor site of Grace. To get there, head out into the courtyard, turn right, hop over the fence, and climb the ladder.
Rotten Winged Sword Insignia location
The Rotten Winged Sword Insignia makes consecutive attacks stronger, especially useful for fast-attacking weapons like claws and katanas. You activate the boost after landing three hits. If you’re dual-wielding, you can trigger it even faster, making this insignia top-tier for dual-wield setups. However, it’s not easy to get and requires a lot of time and effort.
To obtain the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia, you’ll need to complete most of Millicent’s questline.
- You’ll first meet her near Selia, Town of Sorcery, in the Church of Plague.
- Then, talk to Gowry in the shack just south of town and follow his instructions for the initial steps of the quest. When Millicent leaves the church, return to Gowry’s shack to find her there. Exhaust her dialogue,
- Then go to the Erdtree-Gazing Hill site of Grace on Altus Plateau and bring her the Valkyrie’s Prosthesis from the Shaded Castle. Find her again after defeating the Godskin Apostle at Dominula, Windmill Village, next to the site of Grace.
- Then, locate her at the Ancient Snow Valley Ruins Grace and the Prayer Room Grace in the Haligtree.
After talking to her at the Prayer Room Grace, go deeper into the tree and defeat the Ulcerated Tree Spirit near the Drainage Channel site of Grace. Reload the area to find two summon signs, one to challenge Millicent and one to help her fend off 4 invaders. Assist Milicent to earn the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia.
Flock’s Canvas talisman location
The Flock’s Canvas is like a power-up for incantations, similar to how Graven-Mass works. To get it, follow Millicent’s questline, which was explained earlier in the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia section. If you decide to confront Millicent instead of helping her, you’ll find Gowry dead in his shack, and you can take the Flock’s Canvas talisman from his body. However, if you helped Millicent, Gowry will still be alive. You can choose to kill him to get both the talisman and a bell bearing, which will transfer his shop inventory to the Husk Sisters. This is the recommended option, as it allows you to get both talismans and, well, Gowry isn’t exactly the friendliest character.
Graven-Mass talisman location
The Graven-Mass Talisman is essential for sorcery users because it significantly boosts the power of their spells. You can find it in the Albinauric Rise tower located in the eastern Consecrated Snowfield. To access it, use a Bewitching Branch on one of the two imps outside the tower, which will make them attack each other. Once one of the imps is defeated, the seal on the tower will break, allowing you to enter.
Dragoncrest Greatshield talisman location
The Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman is incredibly effective at reducing physical damage, making it a top choice for defense in Elden Ring. If you’re constantly taking hits from physical attacks, this talisman can save you from a lot of pain. You can locate it in Elphael, Brace of the Haligtree, inside a church-like room above the Haligtree Roots Grace. However, to reach it, you’ll have to enter through the roof. Descend from the Drainage Channel site of Grace using the winding branches to access the top of the structure.
