For magic and skill users, the Cerulean Amber Medallion +3 is an ideal item to find in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. Unfortunately, getting it isn’t as simple as locating some hidden chest out in the world.
The Cerulean Amber Medallion +3 can be found in the Scorpion River Catacombs on the northwest section of the map. Getting it, however, is going to take some effort. The medallion is an award for clearing the boss of the catacombs, and they don’t plan on giving up easily.
Cerulean Amber Medallion +3 location in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree
To track down the Scorpion River Catacombs, you’ll want to begin your journey at the ‘Temple Town Ruins’ Site of Grace. It’s near the Rauh Ruins map location, so if you need assistance on how to find it, check out our guide here.
This is the path we’ll follow on the map:
From the Temple Town Ruins, head north up the river until you find the nearby Site of Grace. Oh, and watch out for the scorpions. Believe it or not, there are a few of those on the Scorpion River. You’ll also find many red-colored Kindred of Rot in the area. Try and avoid them if you’re not up to dying the second they notice you.
Once you reach the end of the river, you’ll find the door to the catacombs with a man’s spirit sobbing nearby. He begs you not to look at his face. Look at his face before opening the door and entering the catacombs. Looking does nothing, but how can you avoid it?
The Scorpion River Catacombs, much like other catacombs, is long and winding and travels deep underground. You’ll need to take elevators down while avoiding enemies and ceiling traps. There are also statues of Basilisks casting Death Blight, but you can find Rejuvenating Boluses in the catacombs to cure it.
Keep descending until you at last reach the boss room. You will come face to face with the Death Knight, who uses lightning and a Longhaft Axe in combat. They’re a tough opponent, but many of their moves can be dodged with correct timing.
The one move you’ll need to watch out for is broadcast by the Death Knight’s cape forming into wings with white fire engulfing its right hand. After the windup, the knight will shoot forward and grab you for a devastating grab attack that regenerates its health. To beat it, create some distance and dodge left or right at the last moment.
When it’s defeated, the Death Knight drops:
- Cerulean Amber Medallion +3
- Death Knight’s Longshaft Axe
The Cerulean Amber Medallion +3 is a powerful artifact that boosts your maximum FP gauge more than its predecessors. It’s a powerful tool for those who require a lot of FP for their build.
On the other hand, the Death Knight’s Longhaft Axe is a Greataxe that scales with strength, dexterity, and faith. You can find the Death Knight armor set elsewhere in the game. To complete the ensemble, be sure to check out our guide on how to find the Death Knight armor.
