How To Get Incantations in Elden Ring Nightreign

By Ambar Jimenez | 2025-06-03 09:12:54
While Elden Ring Nightreign may not boast the traditional, deeply intricate character build system of its predecessor, it still offers players significant creative freedom in how they approach each character. Though certain characters may naturally excel in specific areas, this doesn't preclude you from experimenting with any weapon or spell on any given character. Crucially, not every character starts their journey with immediate access to spells and incantations. However, with the right knowledge and acquisition methods, anyone can wield them. This guide will clarify how incantations function in Elden Ring Nightreign and precisely where to find the essential Sacred Seals needed to cast them.

Understanding Incantations and Finding Sacred Seals in Elden Ring Nightreign

Incantations provide powerful magical options that can dramatically alter your combat approach, offering a unique blend of offense, defense, and utility.

How Do Incantations Work in Elden Ring Nightreign?

The functionality of Incantations in Elden Ring Nightreign is directly tied to Sacred Seals. This means:
  • Equip a Seal, Use a Spell: To use an Incantation, you must first find and equip a Sacred Seal. Once a seal is equipped, you gain access to the spells associated with it.
  • Limited Spells per Seal: Every Sacred Seal you discover throughout your expedition will have one or two specific spells pre-equipped to it. These are the only spells you'll be able to cast while that particular seal is equipped. If you desire a different Incantation, you'll need to find and equip a different Sacred Seal that possesses the desired spell.
  • Levels and Rarity: Like other weapons in Limveld, Sacred Seals come with varying levels and rarities. Higher rarity Seals typically boast more potent or unique Incantations.
  • FP Cost and Character Scaling: The FP (Focus Points) cost for Incantations scales significantly based on their power. Depending on your character's stats (specifically their Faith attribute), this will dictate how effectively and frequently you can use certain Incantations.
  • Incant Scaling Stat: Pay close attention to the "Incant Scaling" stat on Sacred Seals. This specific stat determines the amount of damage that Incantations cast from that particular seal will inflict, making it a critical factor for maximizing your spell damage.

Best Characters to Use Sacred Seals & Incantations

While Elden Ring Nightreignallows for character build flexibility, certain characters naturallyhave a higher affinity for Incantations due to their starting stats.This is evident in their HP, FP, and Stamina bars when leveling up. Thefollowing characters possess a naturally higher Faith attribute than others, making them ideal candidates for effectively wielding Sacred Seals and Incantations:

  • Duchess
  • Revenant
  • Recluse

Where to Find Sacred Seals in Elden Ring Nightreign

Sacred Seals, for the most part, are acquired through randomized drops, butthere are specific locations and methods that increase your chances offinding them:

  • Random Drops (Enemies & Chests):

    • Enemies: Any enemy has a small chance to drop Sacred Seals.
    • Chests: Chests offer a decent chance of containing Sacred Seals. These are commonly found within forts and castles as you explore Limveld.
    • Boss Caches: There's always a small chance you'll receive a Sacred Seal from a boss Cache after defeating a significant enemy.
  • Merchants:

    • Sacred Seals can also be purchased from merchants encountered during your expeditions.
    • Generally, better quality Sacred Seals (higher rarity, more powerful Incantations) will become available for purchase from merchants on the second day of your expedition onwards.
  • Fixed Spawn Locations (Early Game):

    • In the northwestern section of the map, you can find two distinct destroyed houses. These houses are typically guarded by a few enemies that visually resemble the "Prophet" class.
    • Inside these houses, you will find interactive statues. Interacting with these statues will present you with the prompt, "Take Sacred Seal."
    • Upon selection, these statues will drop two Sacred Seals for you to collect. While these Seals are usually very low-level,common rarity, and equipped with basic spells, they serve as anincredibly useful starting option if you're looking to center your build around Incantations from the outset.
    • Tracking Statues: Statues like these are spread throughout Limveld. You can sometimespinpoint their locations on your map by looking for the distinct Sacred Seal icon, which helps you specifically track down new spells.
    • Limited Utility (Later Game): It's important to note that after the initial few minutes of the firstday of your expedition, the Seals obtained from these specific statuestend to become less useful as you acquire higher-tier gear.

By understanding thesemechanics and knowing where to search, you can effectively gather Sacred Seals, equip powerful Incantations, and unleash new magical abilitiesin Elden Ring Nightreign.
