Elden Ring is known for its high level of challenge, but there are numerous ways to make the game that little bit easier – one of them being Talismans.
These trinkets can be found all over The Lands Between, earned throughout the story, side quests and general exploration.
Each one has its own perk that can make a big difference when taking on the biggest brutes that the game has to offer.
While finding the Talismans is naturally one hurdle, actually deciding which ones are best for your needs can just be as tricky, especially since only a finite number can be utilised at one time.
With that in mind, we've explored every inch of Elden Ring to bring you the best Talismans in the game and where to find them.
A Talisman is a special accessory that your character can equip to redeem certain passive effects to help you throughout the game.
A maximum number of four Talismans can be equipped at one time, once the three additional Talisman Pounches have been found. This makes deciding which ones to pick crucial considering how many are available.
Upon launch, Elden Ring featured 115 Talismans, with another 39 added as part of the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. This now means a total of 154 Talismans are available to collect.
A Talisman can be dropped by enemies or bosses upon defeating them, found in chests, purchased from merchants, or picked off corpses.
