Haligtree Knight Helm

Helm worn by knights sworn to the Haligtree.

Graced by a crown of unalloyed gold.

Increases faith.

Tower above Elphael Inner Wall

Miquella's Haligtree

Starting Site of Grace: Elphael Inner Wall

Before you go

• Reach Elphael after defeating Loretta, Knight of the Haligtree.

1. Obtain the right Haligtree Secret Medallion half from Albus in the Village of the Albinaurics. He is disguised as a pot on the uphill path, before the bridge leading toward the Omenkiller.
2. Obtain the left half from the tower beyond Commander Niall at Castle Sol in the northern Mountaintops. After winning, continue behind his arena, ride the lift and loot the rooftop corpse.
3. Return to Grand Lift of Rold with both halves and switch to the secret-medallion prompt. The ordinary Rold Medallion sends you to a different destination.
4. Take the main stairs through Hidden Path to the Haligtree and leave into Consecrated Snowfield. Continue north through the blizzard, following the road toward Inner Consecrated Snowfield, then on to Ordina, Liturgical Town.
5. Activate Ordina's grace and find the evergaol seal toward the back of town. Enter it to light the four statues. Invisible assassins patrol the streets and Albinauric archers fire from the rooftops.
6. From the evergaol seal, go left down the stairs and left again to light the street-level statue. Head toward the second stairs leading toward the town grace, but take the path around the building on their right instead of going down.
7. Climb the ladder around that building and the next ladder to its rooftop statue. After lighting it, drop from the eastern side onto the red roof, cross the connected rooftops and climb the next pair of ladders to another statue.
8. Go down those ladders and return to the evergaol courtyard. Pass the right side of the building, drop to the snowy ground and head west around the next building to the last pair of ladders. Light the fourth statue to lift the seal.
9. Back in ordinary Ordina, climb the long northern staircase and use the sending gate at its top. Activate Haligtree Canopy when you arrive.
10. From Haligtree Canopy, head east along the branch, climb over the pink mushroom near the envoy and turn south at the junction. Continue past the patrolling envoy to the next junction, then follow its northeastern branch to the end and look southeast for the branch below.
11. Drop onto that branch. The larger envoy is to the east; return west toward your landing and look south for the mushroom cluster with a corpse. Descend onto the mushrooms, keeping clear of the edges and using them as cover from bubbles.
12. Go north along the branch past the envoys to the ant patrol. Draw the ants onto a wider section before fighting, then turn back south and take the first broad branch east-southeast.
13. At its next junction, turn southwest uphill. Just beyond the smaller branch on your left, drop south onto the broad branch below. At the fork, use the southern branch, then turn right onto the thin branch before its far tip.
14. Follow the thin branch over the next branch, turn northeast onto that one and climb as it curves north. Pass the envoy and turn southeast toward the next envoy, then return west to the large junction.
15. Take the northwestern mushroom ledge with the Preserving Boluses corpse. Drop southwest onto the mushrooms below, then southwest again onto the main branch.
16. Head north-northeast. Beyond the branch sticking vertically up on your left, use the mushroom patch on the right to drop onto the branch beneath. Follow it to the larger branch, turn left and continue north-northeast, then northwest at the junction toward the huge envoy firing bubbles.
17. Near that huge envoy, drop onto the broad branch below. Follow it north through the rot flowers to the trunk. The stone platform on its left has a ladder; descend it and take the stairs to Haligtree Town grace.
18. From Haligtree Town, go northwest down the stairs past the Misbegotten. Continue toward the building below, watching for the enemies waiting beside the doorway and under its stairs.
19. Inside, go down the stairs to the lower room. From its northern side, jump north-northeast to the next platform, then turn left across the wooden bridge. Go through the building and out its window.
20. Cross the pavilion, keeping clear of the large Misbegotten, and enter the building southwest. Leave southwest across the wooden bridge to Haligtree Town Plaza grace.
21. Go south from the plaza and jump to the roof. Cross to its northeastern side, drop onto the branch and continue toward the ants. Turn back toward the building beside that branch and enter it.
22. Leave southeast and watch for Spiritcaller Snails around the outside. Their Crystalian summons disappear when their snail dies. Continue southeast and jump to the next roofs, then use the ladders at their eastern side to reach the lower walkway.
23. Enter the building southeast of the lower ladder and pass the two Misbegotten. Across the bridges ahead, two battlemages guard the way; use the buildings for cover and draw them apart.
24. Cross east to the next building. Its northwestern bridge leads to a lift back up to Haligtree Town. Ride it once to open the shortcut, then return down for a much shorter boss run.
25. From the lower lift landing, cross southeast, then turn left onto the northeastern bridge to Loretta's arena. Defeat Loretta, Knight of the Haligtree. The spirit named Royal Knight Loretta in Caria Manor does not unlock this armor.
26. After Loretta, activate Haligtree Promenade and leave through its northern gateway. Follow the stairs winding down beside the trunk, then descend the long ladder.
27. Enter the tower below and take its lift down. Cross the bridge toward the Cleanrot Knight at the far doorway and activate Prayer Room inside before starting the farm.
28. Leave Prayer Room through the northeastern doorway and follow the outside walkway down its stairs. At the railing corner with a corpse hanging over it, jump onto the sloping stone support below and across to the platform with a gazebo.
29. From the northern corner of the gazebo platform, jump northwest to the next stone support and climb left onto the upper ledge. The room immediately beside you has a chest; continue northwest outside, around the curve to the corpse sitting in a chair.
30. Drop northwest from this ledge onto the branch, then south onto the platform below. Continue around the corner, drop southeast and enter the room with the two Cleanrot Knights.
31. Use the southeastern doorway, turn left over the railing onto the sloping support and drop to the balcony below. Go inside and down the dark stairs, using a light so you can see the lower landing.
32. Halfway down the next stairs, drop from the right side to the ledge with a seated corpse. Drop into the room below, where three Crystalians guard treasure, and leave through the doorway in its northern corner.
33. Face northwest along the lower street and pass the Revenant toward the ladder leading up to a balcony. Climb it, then wait for the Cleanrot patrol inside to move away before entering the building.
34. Leave through the northwestern doorway and take the stairs east to the ballista operators. From their left side, climb the sloping stone support west and jump west-northwest onto the balcony with an open door.
35. Enter the upper room and loot the corpse for Haligtree Knight Helm. Drop west from its ledge, then turn left, south, to activate Elphael Inner Wall. This approach reaches the grace behind the Avatar without requiring you to defeat it.

Notes

• Weighs 5.1 and gives 7 poise.
• Raises Faith by 2 while worn. You only need this helmet for the bonus; removing it can put you below a spell or weapon's Faith requirement.
• This is a fixed corpse pickup above Elphael Inner Wall. Ordinary Haligtree Knights do not randomly drop their helmet.
• The nearby ladder and the upper balcony both reach its room. If you arrived by climbing the western support past the ballistas, collect it before dropping down to the grace.
• Haligtree Helm and Sacred Crown Helm are different pieces that each give 1 Faith. Neither can be worn alongside this one in the same head slot.
• Has no altered version and does not grant immunity to Scarlet Rot.
