How to get the Ritual Sword Talisman in Elden Ring

The Ritual Sword Talisman can be found at the Lux Ruins in the Altus Plateau. ꧙You can either get here by going through the Grand Lift o⛦f Dectus or the Ruin-Strewn Precipice.

From either side, make your way through the main part of the Lux Ruins. Even though there is a Site of Grace specifically for this area, you have to head to the higher part of the Ruins to be in the main part. You’ll know you’re in the right area when you start encountering a lot of sh🅰outing demi-hღumans guarding the area.

Fight through them until you find stairs going downward into a boss fight. Here, you will face Demi-Human Queen Gilika. Upon defeating her, there is a chest behind where she spawned. This is where the Ritual Swor𝓡d Talismanꦏ specifically is.

This should be a fairly easy boss fight since, at this point in the game, you should have already defeated Rennala and maybe Magma Wyrm Makar if you went through the Ruin-Strewn Pꦉrecipice.

Is the Ritual Sword Talisman worth it?

If you are good at telegraphing attacks and staying at f♛ull HP, this Talisman is a godsend. The attack boost is significant, especially f🍷or glass cannon builds that utilize few strikes to take bosses down. 

It’s also a solid pick for people running magic and ranged builds. You start at a Grace 🎃Site or aಌ Stake of Marika, walk into a boss room, and spam your attacks. The attack boost from this talisman can be the difference between an early victory or a long-drawn fight.
