Dormant Power Reward ★★★
(as Revenant or Recluse)
Wandering Merchants ★★
Village Altars
Random Chest Loot

Guaranteed in Great Churches

Great Church Great Church Great Churches are symbolized by a greenish dilapitated church icon on the map. Sacred Seals are guaranteed here.

Sacred Seals are guaranteed loot at the dungeon altars of Great Churches. These dungeons are found at the basement level and are accessed through a hole opening at the church floor. Bosses in Great Churches are relatively easy to deal with even at a low level.

The altar is itself can be found opposite of the room of the Great Church's boss. Interacting with it will guarantee a drop of 3 Sacred Seals.

Can Be Rewarded as a Dormant Power from Bosses

Sacred Seals - Dormant Power Rewards

Sacred Seals can be a part of the Dormant Power rewards after defeating a boss. The chances of obtaining them, in this case, are higher if you are playing a caster character with a high Faith stat, most notably the Revenant.

Note that Dormant Power reward instances are unique per player in a multiplayer expedition. If you happen to find equipment that could be of no use to use but of practical use to another, it's best to take it, discard (drop) it on the ground, then ping it for other players.

Can Be Sold by Wandering Merchants

Merchant Merchants Sells items and has a forge nearby to upgrade equipment with Smithing Stones.

Sacred Seals can sometimes be sold in exchange for Runes by Merchants scattered throughout the map. Note that this is not always guaranteed. Once you have checked in an inventory of a Merchant, that inventory will be the same for the rest of the Wandering Merchants save for ones found in Villages (which have rarer items).

Merchant Locations and What to Buy

Can Be Found at Village Altars

VillageVillage Wandering Merchants with rarer items can be found in Villages. Besides that, a nearby house with an altar can be found holding Sacred Seals.

Sacred Seals can also be found in village altars near a Wandering Merchant. Note that not all Villages will show up in an expedition. Prioritize Great Churches instead in the beginning for guaranteed Sacred Seals, and treat Villages are bonuses.

Can Sometimes Be Found in Chests

Loot Chests

Sacred Seals may also drop as random loot from chests in the overworld in the same manner as other weapons. It is, however, several times rarer than expected with melee weapons being common drops. It is best to head straight for Great Churches if you are looking for Sacred Seals immediately instead.

You can try boosting your chances of getting rare items by using the Silver-Pickeled Fowl Foot, a consumable that significantly increases your Item Discovery stat for a period of time.

How to Find Incantations

Found Randomly with Seals

Incantations are found randomly as part of Sacred Seals, with each seal having at most 2 random Incantation spells. If you wish to change an Incantation you have now, you will, unfortunately, have to find another Sacred Seal with your desired Incantation.
