Poison Mist in Elden Ring can help you take down the Draconic Tree Sentinel and many similar terrifying bosses. If you’re yet to use this simple yet effective item, here’s everything to know about the Poison Mist in Elden Ring, including its location and uses.

Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC will hit the stores in June 2024. From new bosses to map areas, a lot of exciting details have been revealed through the official trailers, which explains the sky-scraping hype surrounding it.

Ahead of the DLC, many new players would want to complete their first Elden Ring playthrough or veterans can take on the toughest bosses again with a different build. In both these cases, Poison Mist is an item that should make things easier.

So, here’s everything to know about the Poison Mist in Elden Ring, including its location and best uses.

Where to find Poison Mist in Elden Ring

You can find the Poison Mist in Elden Ring in the forest southeast of the Castle Morne Rampart Site of Grace. There’s a teleporting Teardrop Scarab that you must kill to obtain the item and ranged attacks are best to take it down with ease.

The exact location where the Scarab spawns for the first time and the nearest Site of Grace are marked in the image below:

You can upgrade stats, pass time, and rejuvenate health at Sites of Grace.

In melee combat, the Scarab might teleport if you don’t kill it in time. Don’t worry, though; it only teleports to nearby regions and can be spotted easily because of its glowing texture.

What does Poison Mist do in Elden Ring?

Poison Mist is an Incantation spell in Elden Ring that releases a poison cloud and doesn’t reveal your location. As a result, against bosses that have a fixed spawn location and aren’t immune to poison damage, you can use Poison Mist sneakily until they die.
