Elden Ring Talisman List and Locations

This page focuses on the questions players usually have about talismans: what each one does, where to find it, whether it belongs to the base game or Shadow of the Erdtree, and which build type it supports. The current list already separates base game and DLC entries; effects, weight, legendary status and exact locations will appear as verified details are added.

That keeps the page useful as an all talismans checklist today without guessing missing details. As locations are added, the table and cards will show region filters and clear pickup notes.

Damage Talismans

Effect categories cover direct damage, skills, critical hits and build-scaling boosts so offensive setups can be filtered without using a tier list.

Defensive Talismans

Defense, guard, healing and HP / FP / stamina categories are separated because survivability talismans answer a different search need than raw damage options.

Magic and Incantations

Sorcery, incantation, Intelligence and Faith tags can support mage and caster comparisons as verified effects are added.

DLC Talismans

Shadow of the Erdtree entries are marked in the same database so DLC talismans stay discoverable without splitting the collection tracker across multiple pages.

How to use it

Use This Elden Ring Talisman Database Without Turning It Into a Tier List

Start with search when you already know the talisman name, then narrow the list by game content if you only want base game or Shadow of the Erdtree entries. The collection checkboxes are the fastest path for completion work: mark owned talismans, hide collected entries, and keep the remaining list focused on what you still need to find.

For build planning, the page is designed around effect categories rather than rankings. Damage, defense, attributes, spell support, skill damage, status effects, guard and healing are separate filter targets so a Strength build, mage build or tank setup can find relevant talismans without mixing database intent with best-in-slot opinion.

Search by Name

Use exact names, partial names or memorable words from a talisman entry to jump straight into the list.

Filter by Game

Keep base game and Shadow of the Erdtree talismans together, or isolate one content group for cleanup.

How Many Talisman Slots Are in Elden Ring?

Elden Ring starts with one talisman slot and can reach four total slots as you earn Talisman Pouches. This page keeps slot information brief because pouch locations and upgrade steps deserve their own guide.

How to Equip Talismans

Equip talismans from the equipment menu, then use the checklist here to track what remains. Build planning belongs in the build calculator, while this page stays focused on the talisman database.

Elden Ring Talismans FAQ

How many talismans are in this database?+

The live counter at the top of the page reflects the talisman database shown on this page, so it stays in sync as the list is expanded or corrected.

How many talisman slots can you have in Elden Ring?+

You can equip up to four talismans after collecting Talisman Pouches. This page keeps the slot answer short; pouch locations and upgrade steps deserve their own guide.

Does this list include Shadow of the Erdtree talismans?+

Yes. Use the Game filter to switch between all talismans, base game talismans and Shadow of the Erdtree talismans.

Can I use this as an Elden Ring talisman checklist?+

Yes. Mark talismans as Owned and Tarnished Forge saves your collection progress in this browser, alongside your other checklist progress.

Can I filter talismans by effect or build?+

Yes. The page is prepared for filters such as damage, defense, attributes, spells, skills and common build directions. They become useful as verified effect details are added.

Why do some talismans show missing effect or location details?+

Some entries currently have only their name and game content. Effects, weight, legendary status, build tags and exact locations will appear after those details are verified.

Will talisman locations connect to the map?+

Yes. As exact regions and pickup notes are added, talisman locations can also appear on the interactive map.

Is this a best talismans tier list?+

No. This page is the talisman database and checklist. Best talismans, tier lists and Talisman Pouches answer different questions and are better handled in separate guides.
