A seal of Queen Marika shaped like an eyeball, Marika’s Scarseal increases multiple stats at the cost of reduced damaged negation in Elden Ring. This talisman is a must-have for the players looking to increase their stats without spending precious runes for the upgrades.
In this guide, we will tell you how to obtain Marika’s Scarseal in Elden Ring and how you can use it effectively to avoid its negative impact.
Marika’s Scarseal Location
Marika’s Scarseal can be found on a corpse at the base of a waterfall at the top level of the Siofra River. There is only one way to access that location, which we will describe in the guide below.
First off, go to the Siofra River Well east of Limgrave and enter the structure near the minor Eardtree. At the center of the structure should be an elevator. Take the elevator down to reach a new area.
Once you reach the bottom of the well, hop on your horse. Stick to your left and move forward along the path. You might encounter some enemies on this path that you can choose to ignore. Once you reach the end of this path, another entrance should lead you to a second elevator.
This elevator will take you to another area. When you exit the structure, there should be a water stream right before you. Follow this stream up the slope into an open area.
It is better to stick to the edge of the cliff, on the right side, to avoid any enemies in this area. Not far ahead, you will find a broken pillar with an enemy on top. It is not necessary to defeat this enemy but is preferred as it will keep shooting arrows at you if you don’t.
The broken pillar leads to a teleporter at the top. Interact with this teleporter, and it should lead you to another area.
After you get teleported to another area, again stick to the edge of the cliff on the right side and move forward. Not far off is an open area with a huge structure and a waterfall in between.
Alongside this waterfall is a boss, which can be ignored if you keep your distance. Head to the waterfall and underneath it should be a dead body, which has Marika’s Scarseal on it.
Marika’s Scarseal Uses
Marika’s Scarseal is a talisman in the game that boosts your Arcane, Intelligence, Mind, and Faith attributes by 3 points. That boost, however, comes at a cost. You’ll also be susceptible to more damage taken.
In this case, you will receive 10% more damage from the enemies. There is also an upgraded version of Marika Scarseal available in Elden Ring, called Marika’s Soreseal. It increases your stats by 5 and the damage taken by 15%.
Both of these talismans are late-game items and can’t be acquired early in the game.
