Unlocking the Death Lightning Incantation in Elden Ring

The Death Lightning Incantation in Elden Ring, known for its golden lightning crafted by Fortissax, symbolizes a deep friendship lost. Initially wielded by Godwyn the Golden, this spell was tainted when Fortissax succumbed to the harrowing concept of destined death.

This guide will walk you through the process of acquiring this powerful incantation and provide tips on how to use it effectively against your foes.

Where to Find the Death Lightning Incantation

In order to obtain the Death Lightning Incantation, you must exchange the Remembrance of Lichdragon with Enia at the Roundtable Hold.

To acquire this remembrance, you need to follow Fia’s questline through a series of specific steps:

• Speak with Fia at the Roundtable Hold and let her hold you.
• Reach the Altus Plateau so D, Hunter of the Dead, will move to the Roundtable Hold.
• Have a secret conversation with Fia to receive a hidden dagger.
• Give the dagger to D, then reload the area. You’ll find Fia mourning over D’s corpse in a room near Master Hewg.
• Interact with Fia, and she will vanish.
• Initiate Ranni’s questline by speaking to her in the Three Sisters area.
• Defeat Radahn to access Nokron, the Eternal City.
• Locate the Fingerslayer Blade and deliver it to Ranni at her rise.
• She will reward you with the Inverted Carian Statue, which you can use at the Carian Study Hall after overcoming Rennala.
• Retrieve the Cursemark of Death and head to the Deeproot Depths to meet Fia again.
• Present her with the Cursemark and engage with her in private once more.
• Rest at the Site of Grace and then interact with Fia’s lifeless body to enter her dream.
• Defeat the Lichdragon Fortissax to obtain the Remembrance of the Lichdragon.

After securing the remembrance, return to the Roundtable Hold and speak with Enia, located near the Two Fingers, to acquire the Death Lightning Incantation.
