Elden Ring — Lands Between & Realm of Shadow achievements

Requirement

Unlock all other 41 entries in the official Steam roster on the same Steam account. Finish the three distinct ending achievements across journeys and audit all four legendary collections. Shadow of the Erdtree bosses and Tarnished Pack items add no extra requirement.

How to work on it

• Earn all other 41 Steam achievements. There is no difficulty or no-summon condition. Check the official list if the final entry is missing.

Requirement

After defeating Radagon/Elden Beast, interact with Fractured Marika and select Age of Fracture or one of the three earned mending-rune variants. Any one qualifies. Ranni's sign and an uncured Frenzied Flame produce different achievements; one ending is selected per journey.

How to work on it

• This achievement is for the golden shade in the sanctuary, not the later physical Godfrey/Hoarah Loux battle.
• Any one of the four Marika/mending-rune variants above qualifies. Four variants do not mean four separate Steam achievements.

Requirement

Complete Ranni's ring sequence through Astel and Cathedral of Manus Celes, then use her blue summon sign after Elden Beast. Do not carry an uncured Frenzied Flame. Receiving Dark Moon Greatsword only completes the prerequisite, not this achievement.

How to work on it

• Use Ranni's sign after the final boss; finishing her quest or collecting Dark Moon Greatsword alone is insufficient.

Requirement

Accept the Three Fingers beneath Leyndell and finish the final Marika interaction while the brand remains active. Using Miquella's Needle removes eligibility for this ending on that journey. Midra is a different DLC boss and does not award it.

How to work on it

• Finish while branded. Killing Midra in the DLC does not qualify.

Requirement

Defeat Godrick at the end of Stormveil Castle. Use the Secluded Cell grace for the final approach and punish the recovery after his wind and axe strings. Restoring his Great Rune is a separate achievement.

How to work on it

• Defeat Godrick, speak to Nepheli and Gostoc afterward, and keep his Great Rune for activation.

Requirement

Activate the Redmane festival through Altus progression or Ranni's investigation, then defeat Starscourge Radahn in the Wailing Dunes. Festival summons are allowed. The later DLC Radahn fight is separate and does not substitute.

How to work on it

• Defeat Starscourge Radahn. This also opens the Nokron crater and is a prerequisite for Shadow of the Erdtree access.

Requirement

Reach Queen's Bedchamber through royal Leyndell and defeat Morgott beyond the golden Godfrey encounter. Inspect the sealed Erdtree entrance and rest afterward to receive the Rold progression; merely beating the earlier Margit does not qualify.

How to work on it

• Defeat Morgott, inspect the Erdtree thorns, then rest at Elden Throne. Melina gives the Rold Medallion for the Mountaintops.

Requirement

Defeat God-Devouring Serpent and Rykard in the same Audience Path encounter. Take Serpent-Hunter inside the arena for its special reach. Complete wanted Volcano Manor contracts before this kill because it closes their active progression.

How to work on it

• Defeat both phases. Exchange his remembrance for Blasphemous Blade if on the faith path.

Requirement

Use both Haligtree medallion halves at Rold, solve Ordina, clear Elphael and defeat both phases of Malenia at Haligtree Roots. Spirit ashes are permitted. Winning is separate from returning Millicent's needle to the flower afterward.

How to work on it

• Defeat both phases. Bleed/frost and knockdown tools can help but do not remove the need to manage her recovery windows.

Requirement

Reach Mohgwyn through Varré or the Snowfield teleporter and defeat Mohg, Lord of Blood at Dynasty Mausoleum Midpoint. Bring Purifying Crystal Tear from Eleonora for the blood ritual. Obtain the wanted White Mask invasions before the boss; sewer Mohg is a separate entry.

How to work on it

• Defeat the sewer boss. It neither replaces Shardbearer Mohg nor opens the DLC.
• Defeat Mohg, Lord of Blood. Delay dodges for his trident swings, move away from bloodflame patches and keep a clean escape route during phase two.

Requirement

Defeat Beast Clergyman/Maliketh at the Great Bridge end of Farum Azula. This turns royal Leyndell into the Ashen Capital, so first obtain Bolt of Gransax, the capital Seedbed Curses and Goldmask's statue revelation. The Forge alone does not trigger this capital replacement.

How to work on it

• Defeat both phases. You arrive in Ashen Capital afterward. The game's ending is still ahead.

Requirement

Defeat the real Godfrey and his Hoarah Loux second phase after the Ashen Capital's Gideon fight. Jump the expanding ground shockwaves and evade the delayed grabs before retaliating. This is distinct from the earlier golden Godfrey achievement.

How to work on it

• Defeat the physical Godfrey and Hoarah Loux phases. The earlier golden shade awarded a different achievement.

Requirement

From Beside the Great Bridge, descend the floating platforms below Farum's cliff and lie in the empty grave to enter the hidden arena. Defeat Placidusax; the arena remains available independently of the main Farum route. Neither Bayle nor the act of curing Frenzy awards this.

How to work on it

• Defeat the hidden two-headed dragon. This is separate from the field dragons in Farum.

Requirement

Upgrade one ordinary armament to +25 with an Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone, or one somber armament to +10 with a Somber Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone. Merely collecting the final stone is insufficient. Use Hewg or another available smith; final stones are finite per journey.

Requirement

Collect the nine named base-game weapons on one character: Grafted Blade Greatsword, Sword of Night and Flame, Ruins Greatsword, Marais Executioner's Sword, Dark Moon Greatsword, Bolt of Gransax, Eclipse Shotel, Golden Order Greatsword and Devourer's Scepter. Get Bolt before Maliketh. Do not substitute DLC weapons or Godslayer's Greatsword.

How to work on it

• Defeat Shaded Castle's main boss. His Marais Executioner's Sword is a legendary armament.
• Defeat the Castle Sol boss. Take the lift beyond him for the left Haligtree Secret Medallion half. Eclipse Shotel is a legendary armament.

Requirement

Collect all six on one character: Lhutel the Headless, Redmane Knight Ogha, Mimic Tear, Black Knife Tiche, Ancient Dragon Knight Kristoff and Cleanrot Knight Finlay. Upgrade level does not matter. Tiche requires Ranni's Moonlight Altar access, and Finlay is an Elphael side chest rather than a boss drop.

Requirement

Collect the seven required spells on one character: Flame of the Fell God, Greyoll's Roar, Comet Azur, Stars of Ruin, Founding Rain of Stars, Ranni's Dark Moon and Elden Stars. Casting requirements do not matter for collection. Obtain Stars of Ruin before killing or permanently opposing Sellen.

Requirement

Collect Radagon Icon, Radagon's Soreseal, Godfrey Icon, Moon of Nokstella, Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman, Marika's Soreseal, Old Lord's Talisman and Erdtree's Favor +2 on one character. The weaker Favor or Dragoncrest variants do not count. Favor +2 becomes reachable after the capital changes.

Requirement

Defeat both Rennala phases at Raya Lucaria Grand Library. Strike the glowing singing scholars to break her first-phase shield, then close distance and punish spell recovery in phase two. The reward opens rebirth; no ending choice requires killing her again.

How to work on it

• Defeat both phases. Her survival afterward is normal. She offers Rebirth using a Larval Tear; respec cannot lower attributes below the starting class.

Requirement

Finish Fia's Deeproot sequence: defeat her champions, accept her embrace, give the Cursemark of Death and revisit until she sleeps. Enter the Deathbed Dream and defeat Fortissax. Killing Fia before the dream permanently loses this fight for the journey.

How to work on it

• Defeat the dragon inside Fia's dream. Move away from the lightning marks that attach to your character, avoid death-blight clouds, and punish the head only when it is safely lowered.

Requirement

In Farum Azula, defeat the Duo by emptying their shared health bar; killing only the first two bodies can leave the encounter active. Sleep consumables can control one enemy while you fight the other. This is distinct from the solitary Noble at Volcano Manor.

How to work on it

• Empty the shared boss meter. The reward includes Smithing-Stone Miner's Bell Bearing [4], enabling normal stones through +24 when all earlier bearings are supplied.

Requirement

Defeat the Fire Giant at the foot of the Forge in the Mountaintops. Target his damaged ankle in the first phase and avoid chasing into the second-phase roll. This kill does not itself replace the capital or select an ending.

How to work on it

• Defeat the giant. Alexander can assist if his line is advanced, but summoning is optional.

Requirement

Use Ainsel River Well in eastern Liurnia, pass the Uhl ruins and descend to the giant seated skeleton's arena for this specifically named Dragonkin Soldier. Defeat it there. Other Dragonkin Soldiers in Siofra or the Lake of Rot do not substitute.

How to work on it

• Defeat the lower-Ainsel dragonkin. Stay beside a rear leg, then retreat from the frost-lightning bursts when its phase changes.

Requirement

After Radahn opens Nokron, light the six obelisks in the upper Ancestral Woods and interact with the dead stag at Hallowhorn Grounds. Defeat the Regal spirit. The lower Siofra eight-flame fight awards a different achievement.

How to work on it

• Win the upper ancestral encounter. When it drains nearby animals to heal, continue creating safe damage windows rather than emptying stamina into its legs.

Requirement

From Nokron's Ancestral Woods descend to Siofra Aqueduct, pass the Crucible Knights and defeat both gargoyles at the waterfall arena. Manage the poison breath and finish the first target quickly after the second joins. Their coffin then leads to Deeproot.

How to work on it

• Defeat both gargoyles at Siofra Aqueduct. The coffin at the waterfall behind the arena takes you to Deeproot Depths.

Requirement

Defeat Margit at Stormveil's entrance. Buy Margit's Shackle from a living Patches if wanted, upgrade the weapon and use Rogier or spirits as preferred. The later capital encounter with Margit is not the Stormveil achievement trigger.

How to work on it

• Winning opens Stormveil and grants another talisman slot.

Requirement

Defeat the Red Wolf in Raya Lucaria's Debate Parlor on the route to Rennala. Avoid its summoned blades first, then punish the end of its sword leap. Red wolves wandering elsewhere do not count.

How to work on it

• Defeat the academy's mid-dungeon boss, then activate Debate Parlor.

Requirement

Follow Volcano Manor's hidden Prison Town route and defeat the Noble in Temple of Eiglay. Use the church pillars to manage his rolling phase and collect Serpent's Amnion for Rya afterward. Other Noble encounters do not replace this named trophy fight.

How to work on it

• Defeat the Temple of Eiglay boss. The bridge enemy near Liurnia's tower does not award this achievement.

Requirement

Climb Ruin-Strewn Precipice at the north end of Liurnia's ravine and defeat Makar beyond the Overlook grace. Avoid the lava trail during its charge and attack from its side. Taking the Dectus Lift instead does not award this optional boss entry.

How to work on it

• Defeat the Ruin-Strewn Precipice boss. Use the central pillar to divide his charges, avoid lava and punish the delayed overhead blade.

Requirement

In royal Leyndell, climb the dragon wing and roots to Erdtree Sanctuary and defeat Godfrey's golden shade. This is the pre-Morgott fight; the real Godfrey/Hoarah Loux encounter in the Ashen Capital has a separate achievement.

How to work on it

• This achievement is for the golden shade in the sanctuary, not the later physical Godfrey/Hoarah Loux battle.

Requirement

Navigate Subterranean Shunning-Grounds to Forsaken Depths and defeat Mohg in the sewer cathedral. This opens the path behind the altar toward the Three Fingers, but does not force you to open their door. Mohg, Lord of Blood is another boss and achievement.

How to work on it

• Defeat the sewer boss. It neither replaces Shardbearer Mohg nor opens the DLC.

Requirement

Defeat the copied-character boss after entering Nokron's crater route. If necessary unequip dangerous items before entering and re-equip after it forms. Obtaining the Mimic Tear spirit ash later in Night's Sacred Ground is a separate collectible action.

How to work on it

• Defeat the bridge boss; the ash itself is in a separate chest later.

Requirement

Complete Ordina's evergaol puzzle, descend the Haligtree branches/town and defeat the real Loretta before Elphael. Her Caria Manor apparition is Royal Knight Loretta and awards a different entry.

How to work on it

• Win this physical Loretta fight, then descend by ladder and lift into Elphael.

Requirement

Follow Ranni through Nokstella and the Lake of Rot, use the coffin at Grand Cloister and defeat Astel. The Dark Moon Ring is needed to continue beyond the seal toward Moonlight Altar, not merely to defeat this boss. Astel, Stars of Darkness in Yelough Anix Tunnel is a different encounter.

How to work on it

• Defeat the Lake of Rot coffin-route Astel. The similarly named Snowfield Astel does not substitute.

Requirement

Cross Castle Morne's ramparts and descend behind the castle to the beach arena, then defeat the Leonine Misbegotten. Collect Grafted Blade Greatsword and report to Edgar if following Irina's story. Ordinary Misbegotten enemies do not qualify.

How to work on it

• Defeat the boss behind Castle Morne.

Requirement

Ascend Caria Manor through the elevated walkways and upper gardens, then defeat Loretta's magical apparition. This opens Three Sisters and Ranni's rise. Defeating only her later Haligtree form does not earn this earlier entry.

How to work on it

• This spectral Caria Manor boss is separate from the physical Loretta in the Haligtree.

Requirement

Enter Shaded Castle in northern Altus, find the inner ladder/lift route and defeat Elemer in the castellan's hall. Stay close to reduce his long-range sword pressure. His Marais Executioner's Sword also counts toward the legendary weapon collection.

How to work on it

• Defeat Shaded Castle's main boss. His Marais Executioner's Sword is a legendary armament.

Requirement

In lower Siofra River, light all eight flame obelisks and interact with the stag corpse at Hallowhorn Grounds. Defeat the summoned spirit. The separate upper Nokron six-flame puzzle leads to Regal Ancestor Spirit instead.

How to work on it

• Touch the remains at the lower Hallowhorn Grounds after all eight flames are lit, then defeat the spirit. Delay attacks until its hooves settle after the aerial leap, and run out of the glowing breath carpet.
• Win the upper ancestral encounter. When it drains nearby animals to heal, continue creating safe damage windows rather than emptying stamina into its legs.

Requirement

Reach Castle Sol in the northern Mountaintops and defeat Niall and his summoned knights. Control the adds before focusing on his lightning-leg attacks. Climb beyond the arena to collect Haligtree Secret Medallion Left; simply reaching the castle does not unlock it.

How to work on it

• Defeat the Castle Sol boss. Take the lift beyond him for the left Haligtree Secret Medallion half. Eclipse Shotel is a legendary armament.

Requirement

Accept Melina's invitation and arrive at Roundtable Hold. Progressing grace visits beyond the opening Limgrave route or the early boss approach triggers the invitation; entering the hub is the achievement condition. This also opens essential smithing and spirit-tuning progression.

How to work on it

• Accept Melina's invitation and arrive at the Hold. Great Rune unlocks when restoring a rune's power at its Divine Tower, not merely defeating its shardbearer.

Requirement

Restore a demigod Great Rune at its matching Divine Tower. The route uses Godrick's rune: cross Stormveil's Limgrave Tower Bridge, use the teleporter and activate the rune atop the tower. Equipping a rune or consuming a Rune Arc alone is not the restoration trigger.

How to work on it

• Defeat Godrick, speak to Nepheli and Gostoc afterward, and keep his Great Rune for activation.
• Accept Melina's invitation and arrive at the Hold. Great Rune unlocks when restoring a rune's power at its Divine Tower, not merely defeating its shardbearer.

Requirement

After Fire Giant, use the Forge of the Giants grace and commit to the kindling conversation, with Melina or the Frenzied Flame alternative as appropriate. This transports you toward Farum Azula. Perform any wanted pre-Forge dialogue first; the royal-capital replacement happens later at Maliketh.

How to work on it

• Complete the Forge event. Being transported does not automatically begin Journey 2 and you can later fast-travel back to earlier areas.
