Elden Ring has numerous spells for players to choose from. Some of these spells are relatively simple and only allow players to launch Glintstone pebbles to attack enemies. Of course, there are also some more powerful and creative spells.

Since many well-known powerful spells are considered essential to numerous magical builds, other very powerful spell options are overlooked.

It is usually difficult for players to use spells effectively in PVP battles because other players can easily dodge the spell attack if they see the casting process. When a player uses an Ambush Shard, it must have the same name as the spell.

In addition, considering the disadvantages of players using spells in general, Ambush Shard can help you have a better chance to hit the enemy, and at the same time, make this spell more creative. So how can players find and use Ambush Shard? The following is a detailed guide on this content.

The Location Of The Ambush Shard

Ambush Shard is on the southern continent of Weeping Peninsula. In the western region of the continent are the famous Witchbane Ruins. Players can start along Fourth Church Of Marika Site of Grace and head south until they reach the area below the church.

Please note that when you find some ruins around you, you should be more vigilant, because there will be enemies walking around at any time. Players need to stay on the torrent and run all the way to the rear in the northwest corner of the ruins.

Players will find that a small part of the ruins are stairs leading downstairs. Players should always pay attention to the presence of enemies around them when going down the stairs. After going down the stairs and through the door, you can easily find a lootable corpse by looking to the right along this wall. Players can find Ambush Shard on this corpse.

In fact, this location is also where Sorcerer Sellen and Witch-Hunter Jerren were imprisoned after the player defeated General Radahn.

How To Use Ambush Shard

Players need 23 points of Intelligence to memorize when using Ambush Shard, and it will also occupy a memory slot. Players need to expend 13 FP to cast this spell.

This spell just fires a relatively basic blast of energy at your enemies, doing them a fair amount of damage as a result. But what’s unique about this spell is that it’s fired from behind your foe. This makes the spell very useful against enemies with shields, as the spell will hit them from behind without being blocked by the shield.

Even NPC enemies in Elden Ring cannot effectively dodge this magic. Because of the powerful attack power of this spell, it has also become the player’s best choice when clearing many enemies in the open world.

We will always fire this spell at the same distance behind the enemy, but no matter how far away the player is, as long as they can aim, they will be able to successfully hit the enemy. This helps shorten the delay between when the player casts the spell and when the enemy is hit.

This spell has a short casting time, which makes it a very useful spell in PVP, as switching to it now and then for a quick cast will surprise your enemies and be harder to dodge than your other spells.
