Elden Ring: Where to find Cinquedea and the Dragoncrest Shield Talisman

Several of Elden Ring's pieces are tucked away in unusual places. The Cinquedea dagger and the Dragoncrest Shield Talisman are both found in the same hidden region in the game. You'll need to journey to the bottom of the Bestial Sanctum to find them, which will require some careful platforming.

Begin by warping to the Grace Site in the Bestial Sanctum. Take a right as you exit the sanctuary. Take another right, and you should be near the Sanctum's side exterior. Take a look at the Sanctum's cliffside on this side. There should be a large branch that you can safely fall on at some point. Slowly walk away from the edge, allowing yourself to fall onto the branch.

This branch will have a slant to it. You should be able to fall onto a perpendicular branch near the bottom of the slop. Recommend that you take the plunge once more.

One arm of the branch you just landed on branches out to the left. You'll be above a building if you walk in this area. This building's branch has fallen off.

Take a brief fall after jumping onto the building to land on a much larger platform. You'll now need to summon your horse and perform a running double leap to land on one of the pillars' narrow edges.

After that, hop onto the ledge that is closest to the Sanctum.

You'll notice a considerably greater area below you on this ledge, which you may safely land on. You'll notice additional pillars in this area. Jump onto one of the pillars' ledges with your horse, just like you did before. You can stand on a brief walkway between the pillar and the sanctum after you jump, giving you a view of another big space below you.

This vast area is the same as the ones you landed on previously. You'll have to make your way down there this time, breaking your fall on small ledges on both the sanctum and the pillar. You will die if you simply jump down. This portion is best done riding your horse because you may use the double leap to reach the ledges more easily.

At the bottom, you'll find a section with some sculptures and the Cinquedea dagger.

The Dragoncrest Shield Talisman can be found a little distance below the dagger.
