Elden Ring's Sites of Grace are navigation checkpoints players discover throughout their journey in The Lands Between. These checkpoints are highlighted by a golden aura encased by tiny tree roots that hovers over a small area allowing the Tarnished a moment of rest.
Much like Dark Souls' bonfires, there are many benefits when using a Site of Grace, and they can be found scattered across The Lands Between. We explore some of the benefits and where to find Sites of Grace in Elden Ring.
What can you do at a Site of Grace in Elden Ring?
Aside from being used as fast travel points, a Site of Grace allows the Tarnished to rest and perform other actions by accessing its main menu. Resting will let your recover your HP and FP meters and heal from effects, ailments and debuffs inflicted during battle and exploration.
Players can also refill their Sacred Flasks at a Site of Grace, which helps you survive most boss encounters to prevent the dreaded "You are Dead" screen when defeated. When resting at a Site of Grace, this resets areas surrounding the Site, including most enemies that respawn in the nearby area.
Some of the additional menu options you can choose when visiting a Site of Grace include the following:
- You can pass the time during the morning, midday, afternoon or at night
- Can level up your character using Runes
- Redistribute the number of uses for your flasks
- Allocate any sorceries and incantations, allowing you to memorise various spells
- Create combinations for the Wondrous Physicks Flask
- Rearrange your inventory and store away items
- Equip or learn about the Ashes of War
- Ask to learn more about The Lands Between from Melina
- Leave. And go exploring.
Where to find all Sites of Grace in Elden Ring?
