What are the two most important things in Elden Ring? Builds and Talismans. You can create the best builds, but you still need the most effective talismans to make them even better.

The most popular build among players right now is the bleed build, and many players have even said they will continue to use it in the upcoming Elden Ring Shadow of The Erdtree DLC, which will be released on June 21st. It is also one of the most powerful builds in the game.

Therefore, if you want to make a bleed build, you will definitely want to know which are the best bleed build talismans. This guide will introduce 8 talismans that can play a big role in bleed builds. This way you can not only experience the thrill of battle, but also accumulate more Elden Ring Runes faster.

Lord Of Blood’s Exultation

If you are going to make a blee build, you have to have Penultimate Medallion to increase the expected damage of this build. Lord of Blood’s Exultation is a very useful talisman that increases your attack power by 20% for 20 seconds.

Getting a medallion for bleed build in Elden Ring is not a straightforward task. You’ll need to explore Leyndell as you progress through the game. First, you’ll need to head to the bottom of Subterranean Shunning Ground and reach Leyndell Catacombs. The medallion is at the bottom of this area, but you’ll need to defeat Priest of Blood Esgar before you can get it.

Shard Of Alexander

Iron Fist Alexander is one of the cutest NPCs you’ll find in Elden Ring, and it looks a lot like a jar. You’ll first encounter it in the northern part of Stormhill, and after you help it crawl out of the ground, it’ll reward you with Shard of Alexander.

Shard of Alexander Medallion increases the attack power of your skills by 15%, and if you’re using Rivers of Blood Katana, you can use this talisman to deal more damage to your opponents.

Erdtree’s Favor

Erdtree’s Favor talisman can help you increase your HP by 3%, stamina by 7%, and Equip Load by 5%. When you’re using a dagger or Uchigatana to bleed build, you can focus on dex builds to bleed build faster. This talisman has three different variants in three locations.

Those aforementioned ability boosts are found in Fringefolk Hero’s Grave and make up the first variant. The second variant is found in Subterranean Shunning-Grounds and gives you 3.5% more HP, 7% more stamina, and 5% more Equip Load. The third variant is found in Leyndell and gives you 4% more HP, 10% more stamina, and 8% more Equip Load.

Regardless of which variant you get, it’s a very good talisman.

Rotten Winged Sword Insignia

Rotten Winged Sword Insignia is one talisman that players consider essential to making a great bleed build in Elden Ring. This talisman increases the power of each attack by three times, depending on the number of attacks you make, so the power of each attack increases by 6%, 8%, and 13% respectively.

Therefore, when you wear Rotten Winged Sword Insignia, you can cause continuous bleed damage to enemies.

To get Winged Sword Insignia, you need to talk to Millicent and complete the quest she gives you - to help her defeat her sisters. This side quest is a lengthy experience that takes you through various locations on the map and pits you against the most powerful optional boss in the game: Blade of Miquella Melinia.

Claw

In Elden Ring, most bleed builds include daggers and Katanas, so it is very necessary to have a talisman to enhance your jump attacks. Claw is such a talisman, which increases your jump attacks by 15%.

Claw is probably one of the first talismans you can get while exploring Stormhill Castle. It spawns in Rampart Tower site of grace. You need to go up from the room with the elevator, go outside, and parkour on the ledges until you find a roof with a corpse.

Be aware that there is a ruthless Pichone following you at all times, so it is best to kill it before you do anything else.

Millicent’s Prosthesis

Millicent’s Prosthesis talisman increases your Dexterity by 5 points and has the same properties as Rotten Winged Sword Prosthesis. This means that each of your consecutive attacks will increase your attack damage by 4%, 6%, and 11%.

So where can you find this talisman? You need to continue Millicent’s questline and go to Windmill Village to kill Godskin Apostle as she asks. After completing this, she will give you the talisman.

If you don’t want to listen to her control, you can challenge her. After defeating her, you will also get Millicent’s Prosthesis talisman. However, in this way, you will miss Rotten Winged Sword Insignia you wanted before.

Great Turtle Talisman

To stack bleed damage in Elden Ring, you have to move fast and deal damage to enemies. This also requires fast stamina regeneration, which Great Turtle Talisman can help you with. It increases your stamina regeneration by 8 points per second, about 17%, so you can fight enemies for a long time.

You need to go to Summonwater Village and find an underground area full of turtles to find Great Turtle Talisman. It is located east of Summonwater Outskirts site of grace, and you need to use two stone shard keys to open the fog gates.

Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman

The last Elden Ring talisman is Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman. As the name suggests, it is a defensive talisman. Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman can help you reduce the physical damage you take in combat by 20%, even the general damage.

Want Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman? You’ll need to head to Miquella’s Haligtree, then to the second half of Elphael in Brace of Haligtree. This Talisman is in a chest on an elevated platform inside a large building to the northeast. You’ll have to parkour as enemies will be attacking you.

These are the 8 best Elden Ring talismans for bleed builds. But these talismans can be used individually or in a mix and match. It’s up to you to figure this out! With all that in mind, hopefully you’ll be ready for Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.
