Effects

Talisman depicting a trio of blue ancient dragons.

Vastly boosts magic damage negation.

The ancient dragons, who ruled in the prehistoric era before the Erdtree, would protect their lord as a wall of living rock.

And so it is that the shape of the dragon has become symbolic of all manner of protections.

Hidden Path to the Haligtree

Starting Site of Grace: Hidden Path to the Haligtree

Before you go

• Both halves of the Haligtree Secret Medallion.

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. Inside Hidden Path to the Haligtree, go along the main stairs to the circular platform above the deep central room. Look for the section of railing that has broken away.
5. Walk straight off through that gap onto the invisible floor immediately below. Drop a Rainbow Stone first to confirm the landing, and avoid jumping out toward the distant wall.
6. Walk north. When you line up with the enemy standing on the unseen platform in the distance, turn west toward it. Use Rainbow Stones to check the path if needed.
7. At the end, drop onto the lower ledge on your left and go through the open window.
8. Head south toward the room with the boss doors, then turn right to the lift.
9. Ride up and loot the corpse in the upper alcove for the talisman. The Stray Mimic Tear boss is not required.

Notes

• Reduces incoming Magic damage by 20% against enemies or 6% against other players. The smaller player-versus-player value applies against player attacks, rather than using the enemy reduction everywhere.
• Only the Magic part of a mixed hit receives this reduction. It does not make every attack from an enemy using that element deal less damage.
• Cannot be equipped with another Spelldrake variant. Earlier versions are not required to collect or use a stronger one.
• Pearldrake Talisman can provide another compatible layer against this element. The reductions multiply rather than adding their percentages together.
• Magic means the damage type, rather than every spell. Physical sorceries and Fire, Lightning or Holy incantations are not all covered. This does not raise Intelligence, maximum FP or outgoing sorcery damage.
• With 25% existing negation for a covered damage type, its 20% enemy reduction gives 40% total negation. It is not an extra 20 percentage points added directly to the armor display.
• Take the northern branch of the invisible walkway and the side-route lift for this corpse. The southern branch leads to Silver Scarab instead, and Stray Mimic Tear is optional.
• Weighs 0.6. Its protection stays active while equipped; it does not need FP, a casting tool or an attribute requirement.
