Elden Ring is a big game. You've probably noticed that already. It's full of monsters to slay, weapons to collect and sidequests to complete. Of all those sidequets, Ranni the Witch's is probably the biggest. A mission that sends you through two eternal cities and a lake of actual rot, it's also arguably Elden Ring's most essential non-essential quest.

Ranni's quest is worth doing for three reasons. First, you'll glean some valuable lore. Second, you'll get some even more valuable loot. And finally, it'll have an impact on what endings are available to you . To begin the quest, you'll need to have unlocked the Liurnia of the Lakes area. This guide will take you through everything from meeting Ranni through to beating the final boss in the questline.

To initiate Ranni's mission, travel to the northwest of Liurnia, through Carnia Manor. Beat the boss of that dungeon, and you'll open a path to a field full of glintstone crystals.

This area has three towers and one dragon patrolling about. Ride past the dragon and travel to the west of the field, where you'll find Ranni's Rise. Go to the top, and you'll find Ranni in her chamber, where she'll solicit your services. Accept her request, then go downstairs to meet her three other servants: Iji, Blaidd and Seluvis.

Blaidd is the key NPC here. The wolfman will tell you he wants to inspect Nokron, the Eternal City, and that you should meet him at the underground Siofra Well. You can do this, but this step is completely skippable. To begin the quest in earnest, you'll need to beat Starscourge Radahn . Good luck!

Once you beat him, a falling star will crash into the Lands Between. Luckily, it will happen in the precise spot that allows you to travel to Nokron. This allows you to begin Ranni the Witch's quest.

Ranni is said to possess a wide range of magical abilities. She can cast spells and brew potions that are said to have the power to heal ailments, grant wishes, or bring forth good fortune. However, there is a dark side to her powers as well.

Nokron, the Eternal City

The goal of exploring Nokron is to find the Fingerslayer Blade for Ranni. You'll get a lot of helpful loot on the way through too, including the Mimic Tear summon and a bunch of Grave and Ghost Gloveworts, which are used to level up your summon ashes. To begin, you'll want to find your way into find the entrance to Nokron.

Travel to the Site of Grace at Fort Haight West. Get on Torrent and travel up the path, and you'll see a cluster of floating rocks in the sky. That's where the falling star struck the Lands Between. Platform down the floating rubble, and you'll find a pathway into Nokron, the Eternal City. You'll enter through half-destroyed buildings, traverse rooftops in an abyss and run across a fallen tower that acts as a bridge into another huge building. Jump through the open window, follow the path and you'll find a Site of Grace.

Run into the town square, beating all the bad guys and collecting all the goodies along the way, and then travel down the flight of stairs in the northern end of the area. Follow the path and you'll be treated to a vista of Nokron, and then you'll hit a yellow magic wall that signifies a boss area. Here you'll find the Mimic Tear, which is an exact replica of your character. Defeat it and you'll get the Mimic Tear summon which, when powered up a few levels, will become a huge help to you.

After you beat the Mimic Tear you can sit at the Site of Grace. Beyond the Site of Grace is a bridge, which you'll cross. (Note: You can ride Torrent now.) You'll come into a big open area populated by blade-wielding beasts -- the worst kind of beast. Dealing with them is part of a whole other quest, so just ignore them. Follow the path and you'll see one of the beasts on a hill next to a statue. She'll be emitting a blue aura as she sings. Ride Torrent to the path on the left of the hill the singing beast is on. Follow around the corner and you'll find a Site of Grace.

Jump onto the rooftop you can see on the right. Run along, then jump down onto the ledge of the next building, then run behind to the other side of it. You'll be greeted to a graphic saying you've entered the Night's Sacred Ground, and when you jump down onto the pathway, two blobs will turn into Silver Tear warriors who attack you. From here it's just a matter of following the beaten path: run to the other side of the area you're in, run along the rooftops and you'll find a makeshift bridge that takes you into a cathedral. Beat the bad guys inside, then exit, go downstairs and find a Site of Grace.

Here you'll face a long path filled with the black sludge monsters. Beat them all, or run past them, into the big building at the end of the path. Inside is a treasure chest with the Fingerslayer Blade.
