For avid completionists eager to collect every trophy in Elden Ring: Nightreign, tackling the Oldest Gaol is essential. However, this quest can be daunting as the game provides little to no guidance regarding its specifics.
Similar to various elements within Elden Ring: Nightreign, accessing the Oldest Gaol often hinges on chance. It is classified as a rare spawn, necessitating numerous attempts before successfully encountering it. In my experience, its occurrence is less frequent than that of the Augur and Fell Omen Raids.
This comprehensive guide will equip you with all the crucial information on the Oldest Gaol in Elden Ring: Nightreign. Readers will discover how to obtain Stonesword Keys for the Gaols, the bosses required to unlock the trophy, and much more.
How to Complete the Oldest Gaol in Elden Ring: Nightreign
To conquer the Oldest Gaol in Elden Ring: Nightreign, players must defeat specific bosses located at Evergaols. There are three designated bosses associated with the Oldest Gaol: the Deathrite Bird, the Godskin Duo, and the Ancient Dragon. Be prepared, as their spawn rate is exceptionally low and these bosses pack a considerable challenge compared to typical Evergaol foes.
Success in this endeavor requires you to locate one of these bosses within an Evergaol. When you encounter one, you initiate the event necessary for earning the trophy. Remember, **defeating just one of them suffices**.
The prerequisite for accessing these Evergaols is a Stonesword Key, so ensure you have plenty on hand.
As previously mentioned, the probability of these bosses spawning is minimal; based on my attempts, it took nearly 50 expeditions before I encountered one. That’s notable, considering I routinely open several Evergaols each time.
How to Acquire Stonesword Keys in Elden Ring: Nightreign
There are several methods to acquire Stonesword Keys in Elden Ring: Nightreign. The most prevalent method involves looting chests; however, keep in mind that this is not a guaranteed way to obtain them. Another option is to purchase Stonesword Keys from various merchants.
Moreover, a certain item ensures you’ll receive a Stonesword Key: specific Relics.
Particularly noteworthy is the rare Grand Burning Scene Relic, which guarantees that players receive a Stonesword Key at the start of each expedition. This invaluable item is fitted into a red slot, ensuring you have immediate access to a Stonesword Key for any Evergaol.
When you procure this Grand Burning Scene Relic, you’re well-prepared to grind Evergaols. Participate in a match, check an Evergaol for the spawning of the designated bosses, and defeat them as they appear. If luck isn’t on your side, exit the expedition and try again.
The Rewards of the Oldest Gaol
Upon successfully defeating a boss within the Oldest Gaol, you will secure the “The Oldest Gaol”trophy along with the choice of two legendary upgrades. Additionally, the Evergaol’s location will generate a Site of Grace, affording players the opportunity to level up, restore health, and refill their Flasks.
Among the upgrades available is a lucrative reward of 30, 000 Runes. The second upgrade varies randomly, presenting players with various enhancements, such as increased Rune acquisition, a boost to maximum HP, stamina enhancements, and more.
Personally, I always advocate for opting to receive the 30, 000 Runes. Depending on the level at which you engage with the Oldest Gaol, this addition can significantly elevate your character’s level swiftly.
