What Do I Do with Miquella’s Needle?
Miquella’s Needle is a crucial item in the game Elden Ring, but many players are unsure of what to do with it. This article will provide a detailed guide on how to use Miquella’s Needle and what ending it is required for.
The Basics
Before we dive into the usage of Miquella’s Needle, it’s essential to understand that it is an item used to reverse the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending. If you haven’t already defeated Malenia, Blade of Miquella, then you need to do so before continuing with this guide.
Using Miquella’s Needle
To use Miquella’s Needle, you need to be in the Dragonlord Placidusax arena. The arena is located in Crumbling Farum Azula. Here, you will see that the Three Fingers of Malenia, the protagonist of the Malenia Questline, will be the ones to administer the curse of the flame. By using Miquella’s Needle, you will break the curse and reverse the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending.
Requirements for the Lord of Frenzied Flame Ending
Here are the requirements for achieving the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending:
- Kill Malenia, Blade of Miquella
- Obtain Miquella’s Needle
- Use the needle in the Dragonlord Placidusax arena to reverse the Lord of Frenzied Flame curse
Important Notes
- You don’t have to fight Malenia immediately after obtaining the needle. You can choose to store it in your inventory until you’re ready to progress with the storyline.
- If you kill Malenia before using Miquella’s Needle, you won’t be able to undo the curse.
When to Use Miquella’s Needle
You can use Miquella’s Needle at any time within the Dragonlord Placidusax arena, as long as you have not yet defeated the boss, Dragonlord Placidusax. Even if you have already killed the boss, you can still use the needle, but be aware that using it before killing the boss will save you from fighting the final boss.
