Elden Ring players can repel a few animals with the Beast-Repellent Torch. Since fighting wolves, dogs, and a few other animals can be time consuming and might force you to use one of the Flask of Crimson Tears, this strength scaling torch will come in handy. However, it is a little tedious to find it if you don’t know where to go. If you want to get this torch in the game, we recommend you read through this guide for the location.
Where to Purchase the Beast-Repellent Torch in Elden Ring
You need to purchase the Beast-Repellent Torch from the Isolated Merchant’s Shack for 1,200 runes in Elden Ring. The Shack is in the Dragonbarrow region in Caelid. The simplest way to reach the shack is from the Dragonbarrow West Site of Grace. From here, travel northwest up the hill until you spot the Shack, a Site of Grace inside, and the Merchant. Thanks to this map from MapGenie, we can pinpoint the location where we found the Isolated Merchant’s Shack in Elden Ring.
How to Get to the Isolated Merchant’s Shack from Heart of Aeonia
If you find yourself near the Heart of Aeonia Site of Grace, this alternative route will suit you perfectly. From here, head north towards Inner Aeonia Site of Grace continuing straight towards Abandon Cave which is to the east of Smoldering Wall Grace. From the Site of Grace here, continue slight to the northwest until you reach the Deep Siofra Well Site of Grace (north of the Siofra River).
Finally, as you head further north you will find yourself at the Dragonbarrow West Site of Grace. Now you can simply head up the hill to Isolated Merchant’s Shack and then purchase the Beast-Repellent Torch in Elden Ring.
How to Find the Isolated Merchant’s Shack from Rotview Balcony
