Unlocking the Crimson Amber Medallion in Elden Ring

Select Language:

The Crimson Amber Medallion, crafted from the ancient sap of the Erdtree, significantly enhances the vitality of its wearer in Elden Ring. This medallion was highly regarded as the most treasured gem during the era of the first Elden Lord, Godfrey.

In this guide, we’ll show you where to find this valuable red gem and how to use it to effectively boost your health points (HP).

Finding the Crimson Amber Medallion

You can acquire the Crimson Amber Medallion for 1,500 Runes at the Nomadic Merchant located in the Weeping Peninsula.

This location is situated at the southernmost point of Limgrave, accessible via the Bridge of Sacrifice. Start at the Bridge of Sacrifice Site of Grace and head south toward Castle Morne.

You can also choose it as a keepsake during character creation.

As you make your way south, you’ll encounter the Castle Morne Ramparts Site of Grace. The Nomadic Merchant can be found right next to this site. Interact with him to acquire the Crimson Amber Medallion in Elden Ring.

Location of Crimson Amber Medallion +1

The +1 version of the Crimson Amber Medallion can be found by looting a corpse in the Prison Town Church section within Volcano Manor.

You can reach Volcano Manor early by allowing the Abductor Virgin under the Academy of Raya Lucaria to capture and eliminate you.

When you arrive at Volcano Manor, speak to Tanith and accept her proposal. She will provide you with the Drawing-Room key, which allows you to open the first room to your right in the corridor.

Don’t forget to strike the painting in the upper right corner of the room to unveil a hidden passage. This will guide you to the Prison Town Church. Upon exiting the church, take a right and follow the path until you reach a locked room marked by an imp statue.

Use a Stonesword Key to unlock the door and retrieve the Crimson Amber Medallion +1 from a corpse located on the scaffolding above.

Location of Crimson Amber Medallion +2

The highest-level variant of the Crimson Amber Medallion from the base game is obtainable only after you burn the Erdtree at the Mountaintop of the Giants and defeat Malekith, the Black Blade, in Crumbling Farum Azula.

After you’ve returned to Leyndell, the Capital of Ash, head south from the first Site of Grace until you notice a large hole in the ground.

Be cautious while descending onto the scaffolding, as a reckless fall can result in instant death. Continue downward until you land on the first wooden beam. Interact with the body to retrieve the Crimson Amber Medallion +2 in Elden Ring.

Location of Crimson Amber Medallion +3

The Crimson Amber Medallion +3 can only be obtained by defeating the Death Knight boss located inside the Fog Rift Catacombs. These catacombs are situated to the west of the Church of the Crusade in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.
