Finding every single one of Elden Ring's legendary spells takes some intense dedication. In the case of Ranni's Dark Moon, you'll be required to set out on a lengthy quest and solve a rather clever puzzle. If you're feeling a bit stuck, though, don't worry--this guide has you covered with everything you need to know about getting your hands on this fun sorcery.

Ranni's Dark Moon explained

　　Ranni's Dark Moon's item description reads:

　　Legendary sorcery associated with the Carian queen. Uses the caster as a vessel to incarnate a cold, dark moon, then sends it floating toward foes. The dark moon dispels all sorcery that touches it, and temporarily reduces magic damage negation for those it strikes. The moon was encountered by a young Ranni, led by the hand of her mother, Rennala. What she beheld was cold, dark and veiled in occult mystery.

Where to find Ranni's Dark Moon

　　Once you've moved Ranni's questline far enough to reach the plateau, make your way to the southwestern tip of the area to find Chelona's Rise [1]. In order to break the seal and gain access inside so that you can loot Ranni's Dark Moon, you'll need to first "seek three wise beasts," which actually just means that you need to find three spectral turtles scattered across the plateau.

　　Chelona's Rise and all three turtle locationsEach turtle is found in one corner of the plateau. You'll know you're near one if you see a bunch of normal turtles wandering about the area. Here's the location of all three:

　　The first turtle is located right by Chelona's Rise hanging off a nearby cliff [2]. It can be hard to spot, but examine the cliffside right behind the tower to find this massive beast.The second turtle is located in the eastern corner of the plateau [3]. When you come across plenty of turtles walking about, look off the side of a nearby cliff to see it chilling out on a small platform. It's very easy to spot.The third turtle is located in the northwestern corner of the plateau [4]. It's far above you in the sky, so summon Torrent and use the nearby spirit spring to fire yourself high into the air and touch the turtle to destroy it.Once you've completed this task, return to Chelona's Rise and make your way to the top of the tower to loot Ranni's Dark Moon.
