Using Talismans to increase your Equip Load in Elden Ring

Elden Ring has many Talismans that you can equip to improve your character. The three talismans mentioned below help you by increasing your maximum Equip load.

  • Great-Jar’s Arsenal
    1. You can get this Talisman by completing the Great-Jar’s Trial.
    2. Fast travel to the Isolated Merchant’s shack site of grace and go north towards the colosseum.
    3. Here talk to the Great-Jar and it will enable three red summon signs down the path you came from.
    4. Summon all three of them and defeat them in a single life, i.e. without using any site of grace.
    5. After defeating the three summons go and talk to the Great-Jar and it will give you the Great-Jar’s Arsenal Talisman.
  • Arsenal Charm
    1. You can get this item by following Nepheli’s questline.
    2. Go east from the Secluded cell and you can find her in a room.
    3. Exhaust her dialogues.
    4. Next, you can choose to summon her for fighting Godrick the Grafted. This is an optional step though.
    5. Defeat Godrick the Grafted.
    6. Go to the Roundtable hold.
    7. First talk to Gideon Ofnir.
    8. Next, go and talk to Nepheli and she will give you the Arsenal Charm Talisman. In case, she isn’t present then fast travel to Godrick’s site of grace and back to see if she appears.
  • Erdtree’s Favor
    1. Go to the Stranded Graveyard site of grace.
    2. Next, use two Stonesword Keys on the Keystones.
    3. Now keep going down until you see a bridge-like path. Beware of the wheel trap and enemies that attack you while going down.
    4. Once you reach the area don’t cross the bridge instead drop or jump down.
    5. Again go down the natural path. You can choose to fight or run past the enemies. Although it is better to eliminate them as there is fire here that you need to dodge. So if you run past them there is a great chance these enemies will come to attack you.
    6. Now head past the structure that was launching fire at you.
    7. Once you reach down you will see a bridge-like path at the end of it you will find Erdtree’s Favor Talisman.
    8. Cross the bridge and turn left to dodge the Grafted Scion and immediately grab the Talisman.

If I had to recommend a Talisman from the three then I would suggest going for Great-Jar’s Arsenal Talisman. As out of these three it increases your equip load the most.
