The Crimson Amber Medallion +1 is a valuable Talisman in Elden Ring that boosts your maximum HP by 7% once equipped. It’s an upgraded version of the base Crimson Amber Medallion, that gives your health a 6% increase. Talismans play a huge role in Elden Ring to survive the hardness and cruelty of Lands Between and this item is also one of them. Here’s everything you need to know about the medallion, including where to find it, its effects, and why it’s worth adding to your build.
What Does Crimson Amber Medallion +1 Do?
The Crimson Amber Medallion +1 raises your maximum HP by 7%. Even though this small boost doesn’t make a huge impact, it is very valuable if you haven’t yet reached high levels in Vigor. If you’re still leveling up and struggling to survive some of the tougher Elden Ring bosses, this Talisman can make a difference in your survival during battles.
Where to Find Crimson Amber Medallion +1 in Elden Ring
You can find the Crimson Amber Medallion +1 in the Volcano Manor area on Mt. Gelmir. Here’s a step-by-step guide to reach the exact location and obtain it:
- Start at the Prison Town Church Site of Grace in Volcano Manor.
- Head east through the town as you would if progressing through the story.
- You’ll come across a fog gate sealed by an Imp Seal Statue. You need to use a Stonesword Key to unlock this gate.
- Once you’ve entered the building, there’s an Abductor Virgin inside. You can run past this enemy or engage it in battle.
- Climb the stairs in the building to reach the upper level.
- There, you’ll find a corpse with the Crimson Amber Medallion +1.
Base Crimson Amber Medallion and Other Variants
If you also want the base version or even the higher-level Talisman variants, here’s where you can find them:
- Crimson Amber Medallion (Base Version): Can be purchased for 1,500 Runes from the Nomadic Merchant near the Castle Morne Rampart in the Weeping Peninsula. It gives you HP effects by 6%.
- Crimson Amber Medallion +2: Found in the Subterranean Shunning-Grounds under Leyndell, Ashen Capital. This area becomes accessible after you defeat Maliketh. It boosts HP by 8%.
- Crimson Amber Medallion +3: This is available in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC after defeating the Death Knight boss in the Fog Rift Catacombs. It raises HP by 9%.
Why You Should Use Crimson Amber Medallion +1
In any game, the health items are the important items you should have enough all the time in your inventory and that’s what makes this Talisman necessary to recover your health from damage. It can help you stay alive in tough boss fights and be strong enough to beat the enemies. If you prefer tanking hits rather than dodging every attack, the extra HP can make a good difference. Additionally, the +1 variant of the medallion provides a better boost than the base version, so becomes a worthy upgrade.
