Los Angeles, California – In the world of Elden Ring, players face a crucial decision that impacts the fate of two important non-playable characters (NPCs). The choice between the Iris of Grace and the Iris of Occultation determines the rewards received from NPC Jolan and Fire Knight Queelign at the culmination of their questlines. These key items play a significant role in shaping the outcome of the game for those who seek the best rewards.
Located in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, the Iris of Grace can be found in front of a stone desk in a corridor within the Specimen Storehouse area. To reach this location, players must teleport to the Storehouse, First Floor Site of Grace, and stick to the left side while navigating through the area. The journey involves descending into the lower levels of the Specimen Storehouse, battling enemies, and ultimately acquiring the Iris of Grace.
On the other hand, the Iris of Occultation is obtained by defeating the Lesser Omenkiller at the Fort of Reprimand in the Scadu Altus region of the Realm of Shadows. The path to this item involves starting from the Moorth Ruins Site of Grace and following the main path until reaching the fort. Players must then defeat the enemies within the fort to obtain the Iris of Occultation.
These consumable items can be used to receive the blessing of an equipped Great Rune in the game. While players have the option to consume these items, it is advisable to keep them for specific NPC questlines. The Iris of Grace and Iris of Occultation are associated with the questlines of Fire Knight Queelign and Jolan, each offering unique rewards based on the item given to the NPCs.
Choosing between the two items depends on the player’s preferences and objectives in the game. While giving the Iris of Grace may result in obtaining Spirit Ash, receiving the weapons of Fire Knight Queelign and Jolan by giving them the Iris of Occultation is considered a more favorable choice. Ultimately, the decision lies with the players as they navigate through the intricate world of Elden Ring with these key items shaping the outcome of their journey.
