Starting Site of Grace: Moonlight Altar

Before you go

• Reach Moonlight Altar through Ranni's quest.
• One Stonesword Key.

1. Reach the western Liurnia road and follow it north through Kingsrealm Ruins. Strike the illusory wall blocking the road at the northern end, then continue past Iji at Road to the Manor.
2. Ride toward the large manor while avoiding the magical strikes falling along the approach. Activate Main Caria Manor Gate grace at the entrance.
3. Inside, follow the courtyard path northwest toward the building in the far corner. Fingercreepers hide among the plants and beneath the ground; do not stop on a buried hand.
4. Enter the building with the seated spirit and climb its stairs to Manor Lower Level grace.
5. Take the elevated walkways east and continue straight along the main route at the first junction. Spectral soldiers appear along the bridges. Reach the far building and take its lift up to Manor Upper Level.
6. Leave the upper grace, pass the wolves in the garden and climb the main stone stairway toward the Troll Knight and sorcerers.
7. Continue up the stairs beyond the troll and Pages to the large circular courtyard. Defeat Royal Knight Loretta, then activate Royal Moongazing Grounds grace.
8. Leave through the rear exit into Three Sisters. Ranni's Rise is the western tower; climb to Ranni and agree to serve her.
9. Speak to the servant projections downstairs, including Seluvis, then return to finish Ranni's conversation. Go to Seluvis's Rise, the tower southwest of hers.
10. Defeat Starscourge Radahn at the Radahn Festival in Redmane Castle. His defeat opens the starfall crater in Limgrave; it is not the sealed Siofra River overlook reached from the Four Belfries.
11. Return to the Mistwood near Fort Haight and find the new crater marked by floating rocks. Use the descending ledges and openings to enter Nokron, Eternal City.
12. Follow the rooftops down into Nokron's streets, then continue to the Mimic Tear boss. Defeat it and cross the long bridge beyond the arena.
13. Leave the bridge on the left where it opens into woodland. Follow the western cliff to Ancestral Woods grace, overlooking the lower rooftops.
14. From beside the grace, drop to the roof below. Follow the roofs and narrow building ledges, fighting or avoiding the Silver Tears, until you can cross the broken stone arch into the large church.
15. Descend to the church's lower floor and watch the enormous rolling ball. Leave through the main doorway and go down to Night's Sacred Ground grace.
16. Follow the lower street past the Silver Tears toward the enormous seated skeleton. Climb the stairs below its throne and open the chest for Fingerslayer Blade. The nearby locked side room for Mimic Tear Ashes is not needed for this chest.
17. Return the blade to Ranni at her tower. Before doing this, finish any remaining Seluvis rewards you want. Rest after speaking to Ranni, then visit Renna's Rise, the northern tower in Three Sisters. Climb it and use the sending gate to Ainsel River Main.
18. Collect Miniature Ranni from the coffin near where you arrive. Rest at Ainsel River Main and select Talk to miniature Ranni repeatedly until she answers. Finish her dialogue.
19. Follow the river through Uhl Palace Ruins, using cover against the hanging creature's projectiles. Continue through the ant tunnel to Nokstella. Follow the river at ground level through the city and take the lift in the small building at the far end to Nokstella Waterfall Basin.
20. From Nokstella Waterfall Basin, pass through the Basilisk tunnel into the red-lit clearing. Defeat the Baleful Shadow and finish Ranni's response to receive Discarded Palace Key.
21. Return to Raya Lucaria Grand Library after defeating Rennala. Open the locked chest beside her with Discarded Palace Key and collect Dark Moon Ring.
22. Return to Nokstella Waterfall Basin and pass the Basilisk tunnel to the clearing where the Baleful Shadow fought. Continue beyond it to the lift down to Lake of Rot Shoreside.
23. From the shore, look southwest for the first small obelisk. Run to its floor button to raise dry platforms, then continue south across them. Watch for Basilisks emerging beside the path.
24. From the southwestern end of those platforms, cross to the next obelisk southwest and press its button. Stop on dry ground to treat Scarlet Rot or restore HP before continuing.
25. Look toward the enormous doorway on the lake's southern side. Cross the remaining stretches toward that entrance, using exposed stone for breaks. Avoid rolling in the rot, which coats you and keeps buildup going after you leave it.
26. Enter the large doorway and follow the stairs down to Grand Cloister grace. Activate it before returning for nearby lake loot. The Dragonkin Soldier and the raised Alabaster Lord area are optional detours.
27. From Grand Cloister grace, go down the stairs and toward the end of the platform to the northwest. Jump west to the narrow ledge, turn left and cross the gap to its southern section.
28. At that gap, use the lower ledge below rather than trying to jump straight to the ground. Continue south around the corner and descend the stone ledges westward in stages.
29. At the bottom, use the columns as cover from the Kindred of Rot. They can fire tracking threads while you are on the ledges, so clear space before stepping into the open.
30. Follow the dry ground west toward the group worshiping at the shrine. The eastern dead-end branch can awaken an Ulcerated Tree Spirit and is unnecessary for the dagger.
31. Follow the rot river toward the southern waterfall and rest in the stone coffin at its brink. Continue from its destination and defeat Astel, Naturalborn of the Void.
32. With Dark Moon Ring in your inventory, pass through the sealed passage beyond Astel and ride the lift up. Activate Moonlight Altar grace on the plateau.
33. From the Moonlight Altar grace, ride to Lunar Estate Ruins on the plateau. These ruins cannot be reached by climbing the cliffs from the ordinary lake below.
34. Search the northwestern part of the ruins for the imp statue and the hidden cellar entrance. Strike or roll over the false floor to reveal the stairs.
35. Spend one Stonesword Key to remove the seal, then go down into the cellar.
36. Open the chest for the medallion. You do not need to finish Ranni's final conversation or fight the nearby dragons for this chest.

Notes

• Raises maximum FP by 11%, compared with 9% from the +1. It does not lower the cost of spells, skills or Spirit Ash summons.
• Cannot be equipped with another Cerulean Amber Medallion variant. No earlier medallion or upgrade material is consumed to obtain it.
• Cerulean Seed Talisman can be worn alongside it to improve flask restoration. This medallion changes the size of the FP pool, not the amount restored by each drink.
• The chest is on Moonlight Altar, the high plateau reached through Ranni's quest. Seeing Lunar Estate Ruins on the map does not mean you can climb up from the lake below.
• Removing it lowers maximum FP again. It does not provide a permanent stat increase or keep extra FP above your new maximum.
• A 200 FP pool becomes 222 before other effects. Whether that allows another cast depends on the spell's actual cost; the talisman itself does not make each cast cheaper.
• It can help meet an expensive Spirit Ash's FP cost when your unmodified bar is too small. It does not grant Mind levels or lower a summon's requirements.
• Weighs 0.3, and its 11% maximum-FP multiplier is the same against enemies and other players.
