Crystal Torrent Lore

Lore Description

Creates a mass of crystal, then fires off shards in rapid succession. Hold to continue firing shards.

The wrath of the Crystalians encapsulated in sorcery. Each shard is of substantial size, making even a stray blow capable of inflicting a severe wound."

Crystal Torrent Effects

Elden RIng - Crystal Torrent
Crystal Torrent is a spell that allows one to shoot out crystal shards at an enemy in rapid succession. Charging it down will allow you to continuously barrage them with crystal shards to melt down their HP.

It's recommended to drink Cerulean Hidden Tear when using Crystal Torrent, as it negates the FP Cost of using the spell.

How to Get Crystal Torrent

Defeat Putrid Crystalians

Defeat the three Putrid Crystalians at the boss of area of Sellia Hideaway in Caelid. These Crystalians are capable of inflicting scarlet rot with their attacks compared to regular Crystalians, so better watch out for your scarlet rot guage when facing them.

After beating them you will be rewarded with the Crystal Torrent spell.
