10 Best Passive Effect Items In Elden Ring

Not sure which talismans or sets of armor will help you the most in Elden Ring? These are the best items in the game that don’t do anything.

Some of the most wanted items in Elden Ring are ones that don’t do anything. This is due in large part to the fact that, as the name suggests, you only need to equip them to use them. Since things like melee weapons change how you play a lot, they aren’t considered passive items.

Items like shields, talismans, and full sets of armor are easy to use with any build, so they can be thought of as passive. Even though Talismans are by far the best items in the game for passively helping you in a big way, that doesn’t mean that a few other items can’t help you in similar ways.

Queen’s Crescent Crown

One of the first armor pieces you can get in the game, and it gives you a nice boost to your stats. When you wear the headpiece, it not only makes you immune to magic, but it also raises your intelligence by three levels. This makes it a great piece for magic builds.

After beating Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon, in the Raya Lucaria Academy, you can get the Queen’s Crescent Crown as a piece of armor. After you beat the boss, you can buy her armor set for 7,000 runes from Finger Reader Enia at the Roundtable Hold.

Great-Jar’s Arsenal

In Elden Ring, the loads you use can make a big difference in how you build your character. It might seem like a good idea to play a character with heavy armor and a heavy melee weapon because they have a high defense and deal a lot of damage, but their slow movement speed and low dodge roll make it much harder to use them effectively.

With the Great-Arsenal Jar’s talisman, you can carry almost 20% more equipment. This makes heavier weapons a lot more useful than they would be otherwise. After beating the three NPC duelists in Dragonbarrow, near the top of Caelid, you can find the Great-Arsenal. Jar’s

Viridian Amber Medallion / Green Turtle Talisman / Great Turtle Shell

These two talismans and one shield are the best ways to boost your stamina in Elden Ring without having to level up. The Viridian Amber Medallion and the Green Turtle Talisman both give you more maximum stamina and a faster rate of regaining stamina. On the other hand, the Great Turtle Shell shield increases your total recovery rate by 8%.

These are best for extreme builds, like using a very heavy weapon that uses a lot of stamina per attack or a fast, light weapon like a dagger that you want to spam as much as possible.

Cerulean Amber Medallion / Cerulean Seed Talisman

The Cerulean Amber Medallion and the Cerulean Seed Talisman both increase your maximum FP and the amount of FP you get from drinking from the Flask of Cerulean Tears. Even though both of these items are great in their own right, they are really only useful for pure magic builds.

Even if you use a spirit ash or weapon art that needs FP, you probably won’t use them enough in a single fight to need more than one or two flasks. This makes these two flasks less useful. You can find the Cerulean Amber Medallion in the Lakeside Crystal Cave, and you can find the Cerulean Seed Talisman in the Carian Study Hall.

Raptor’s Black Feathers

There are a few sets of armor in Elden Ring that have good passive bonuses, but the Raptor’s Black Feathers, which is just the chest piece of a bigger set, is one of the best. Your jump attack damage will go up by 10% just from the chest piece.

Jump attacks are great for dealing with enemies with shields. They are also safe attacks that let you cover a lot of ground faster than a normal light or heavy attack. You can find the Raptor’s Black Feathers in the Sage’s Cave on the Atlus Plateau, past a wall that doesn’t exist.

Erdtree’s Favor

Even though items that boost health and damage are best, the Erdtree’s Favor’s biggest benefit is that it raises more than one key stat. In its base form, it adds about 3% to your max health, stamina, and equip load. In its +2 form, it adds between 5% and 8%.

The Erdtree’s Favor is most useful when you only need a small boost in equip load for your current build. However, it can also help you get more HP and stamina when you don’t need more equip load focuses.

Crimson Amber Medallion / Crimson Seed Talisman / Icon Shield

Items that focus on FP are only useful in magic builds, but items that focus on HP are always useful. The Crimson Amber Medallion and the Crimson Seed Talisman are important medallions that increase your maximum HP and the amount of health you get from drinking from the Flask of Crimson Tears. You should be able to find one early on. The basic medallion can be bought from a merchant in the Weeping Peninsula. The talisman can be found much later in the Sainted Hero’s Grave on the Atlus Plateau.

When equipped, the Icon Shield also gives a good health recovery bonus of 3hp per second. It’s too bad that it doesn’t block all physical damage, so it’s best to use it in builds where you don’t need a shield.

Millicent’s Prosthesis

The only way to get one of the best passive boosts in Elden Ring is to kill a sad and loved NPC on a questline. Millicent’s Prosthesis not only raises your dexterity by five levels, but it also increases your damage rate by a certain percentage each time you hit the same enemy multiple times, from 4% at the lowest to 11% at the highest.

The only way to get Millicent’s Prosthesis is to kill Millicent in the Windmill Heights Site of Grace, though you might want to wait until a new game plus to finish her questline first.

Radagon’s Soreseal

The Radagon’s Soreseal is a very important talisman that many players go after right away when they start a new game. If you run to Fort Faroth in Caelid and cross a vertically designed area, you can get the Radagon’s Soreseal, which raises your vigor, endurance, strength, and dexterity by five levels. However, you have to travel a long way before you are high enough level to get it.

It does make you take 15% more damage, which is bad, but the big boosts to health and damage you get from the twenty free levels more than make up for it until late game.

Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman

The incredible benefit of the Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman is that it cuts all physical damage taken by 20%. Many of the game’s most dangerous enemies do different kinds of damage that aren’t covered by the talisman. However, there are so many that are covered that taking it off is almost impossible.

The only bad thing about it is that you can’t get it until you go into Elphael, Brace of the Haligtree, which is one of the last dungeons in 8 Ball Pool game. The fight against Malenia’s boss comes right after, which is almost certainly not a mistake from a game design point of view.
