Elden Ring Nightreign

Invaders Location and Guide

Add to Watchlist

Invaders Guide Top Banner

Invaders are NPC enemies that resemble playable characters in Elden Ring Nightreign. Read on to learn the location of Invaders and the rewards you get for defeating them.

Invader Locations

Look for Points of Interests That Are Shrouded in a Dark Blue Circle

Invader on Map

A point of interest that is shrouded by a dark blue circle with cracks signals an invasion. This location will have night invaders that will attack you on sight.

Since points of interests have a mini boss inside the area, you will potentially fight the mini boss and the invader simultaneously. Beware that these are tough fights and is recommended to tackle on day 2!

Alert Prompt at Bottom Right of the Screen

Invader Alert

A message prompt will alert you once you enter an area with an invader. This can be seen at the bottom right of your screen.

Invasions are Not Raid Events

Invasions only include the invaders that will inhabit a specific point of interest. On the other hand, Raid Events are classified into 4 events that actively affect and target the players with differing mechanics per Event.
