The Spiral Shard, originating from the sorcery of Karolos Conspectus in Elden Ring, conjures two twisting magical projectiles that cut through adversaries. This unique sorcery emerged from a botched experiment as researchers at Raya Lucaria attempted to create a new comet.
This guide will walk you through the steps to acquire the Shard Spiral sorcery by completing Sellen’s questline and provide strategies on how to use it effectively against larger foes.
Where to Find Shard Spiral
You can purchase the Shard Spiral Sorcery for 8,000 Runes from Sellen once you have completed her quest and chosen to support her instead of Jerren.
To successfully complete Sellen’s questline, follow these instructions:
- Speak to Sellen at the Waypoint Ruins after defeating the Mad Pumpkin Head.
- Locate the Primeval Sorcerer Azur and gain the Comet Azur sorcery from him.
- Return to Sellen; she will provide you with a secret Glintstone Key.
- Use the Glintstone Key to access Sellia Hideaway and find Master Lusat, where you will learn the Star of Ruins spell.
- Go back to Sellen to receive Sellen’s Primal Glintstone. After defeating Starscourge Radahn, meet Sellen again; she will request a meeting at the Witchbane Ruins.
- Speak with Jerren to complete the Radahn Festival. Head to the Witchbane Ruins to discover Sellen has been killed by Jerren.
- In the Three Sisters area, locate Seluvis’s secret chamber north of Seluvis’s Rise.
- Behind a puppet, break through the illusory wall to uncover Sellen’s true body. Use Sellen’s Primal Glintstone to revive her.
- Defeat Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon, at the Raya Lucaria Academy. Reload the area and summon Sellen to invade Jerren’s world.
- Defeat Jerren, then return to the area to find Sellen in the Grand Academy. Interact with her to buy the Shard Spiral sorcery for 8,000 Runes.
Stats and Requirements for Shard Spiral
To cast the Shard Spiral, you’ll need a minimum of 27 Intelligence and a staff. The spell costs 14 FP and 28 Stamina to use, along with occupying one spell slot.
This powerful spell generates two swirling projectiles that inflict magic damage on enemies. It is especially advantageous when facing larger opponents like the Elden Beast, as it can penetrate through enemies rather than detonating on impact.
