Ancestral Infant's Head | Elden Ring Wiki

Does this scale with Magic Scorpion Charm and the Magic Crystal Tear? I would assume so.

You should sing a pretty lil song when you use it, 0/10

Submit

mmmh crunchy. ..tasty

Submit

Funny damage against Placidusax when used with Fia's Mist

Submit

Has anybody tried using this on Godwyn or anyone in Fia's questline? to see if there are any unique interactions or dialogue given?

Submit

equivalent of putting acid in a watering can

Submit

How did i not know this exists?!

Submit

Use this to gnaw at Death Tweety Bird's HP, in Caelid, from the giant skull above it, early game. Thanks me later.

Submit

I wonder if the water tastes good

Submit

Use to pose break, and in combination with certain other sorceries, like Ancient Death Rancor, to stunlock. The cost is appropriate. It’s not a primary damage tool, it’s a poise break tool. Throw a Night Maidens Mist on top of it for added damage

Submit

With my ancestral followers RP character, at 60 intelligence with the headdress, magic scorp charm, magic physik, AND debuffing with the Winged greathorn, I was only able to get about 1500 damage in a cast. With how long the cast animation is, this makes it both FP AND time inefficient. The only time I could see it being useful is when there's a huge group of weak enemies, but you could just use Hoarfrost Stomp instead... either needs fp reduction, cast speed reduction, projectile speed increase, scaling increase, or most likely all of the above.

spent over half an hour in Sellia with my Mimic Tear Ashes +10 summon equipped with only this and a pair of seals with healing, then switched to Sentry's Torch immediately after summoning it and watched it kill the mages by "spraying the questionable blue liquid all over them", laughing my ass off in the proccess, it was a fun experience certainly.

Submit

This tool's lingering pools of damage are quite useful not only for catching invisible scarabs, but also for annihilating the stance of enemies which take flat stagger from all hits, such as Abductor Virgins. However, its damage output is incredibly mediocre and its mana cost quite high, meaning this will only ever be a niche utility in your toolbelt.

Exceptional tool for catching those invisible scarabs rolling around. Just stand in their path and soar everything in blue flames. Lasts bit longer than Volcanic Pot, and doesn't consume any items, only FP.

Submit

surprisingly good end of invasion/duel emote

Submit

While trying to see if someone had created the Eraserhead baby in Elden Ring as a character, this showed up and the resemblance between the two made me slightly concerned.

Submit

its super good for dealing a crap tonne of poise damage to enemies and staggers weaker enemies, can waste hordes of smaller enemies that love to attack in clusters, and is perfect for surprising morons in invasions that chase you if you wanna get some distance or cut off a corridor, unless they learn the jump button, which most tend to forget about :D

also, consumable-only-runs are a thing.

Submit

Differently from night maiden's mist, you can actually stack up blue fire pools. Also good for farming birds, it doesn't alarm them.

Submit

Night Maiden's Mist + Ancestral Infant's Head = Zoning Delight (although a bit heavy on FP)

Submit

I really wish this thing would either….

1: damage your opponent and also drain their fp

2: Damage your opponent and restore around 10 of your fp per tick of damage.

3: Damages your opponent, drains their fp, and restore around 10 of your fp per tick of damage.

That would make this item not only viable but pretty unique too.

Submit

More useful for utility than anything else. Even with 99 int and the horns it doesn't outperform Night Maiden's Mist. It is good for killing invisible Scarabs and farming groups of weak enemies.

Submit

Actually good to farm all animals for bones in siofra river

Submit

Alas poor Yorick!

Submit

If this procced millicent's prosthesis and rotten winged sword insignia I think you can make a good pvp build revolving around it with other spells.

Submit

This thing honestly could be decent if fromsoft were to just add stagger to the blue fire. In a perfect world making this item function like black ritual flame would be pretty awesome.

Submit

Just the head?

Submit

I witnessed to defeat the MALENIA using it

Submit

Good for killing invisible teardrop scarabs, place before they run by and boom they die. Maybe I just need to git gud

Submit

I used this to help defeat Alecto. Basically I'd throw it down when I saw her moving in my direction. It didn't do a ton of damage but she was in a constant stagger while in it. It slowed her down enough for me to smack her in the head with my dual greatswords.

Submit

There are Shining Horned Headband Drop from female that boost damage of this one

Submit

There is one female guarding a chest with the head of an infant. It's pretty ****ed that we steal it.

Submit

Costs more than double the FP it should for the damage and utility you can get out of it, which is a shame. Magic items rock.

Submit

Some testing data:

It is NOT affected by spell or skill related talismans.
It does NOT count as consecutive hits.
It IS affected by the magic scorpion charm.

No matter in how many pools a enemy stands, they all take the same damage.
The pools last for about 6 seconds and tick a total of 14-15 times.
84 Int + Headband + Magic Talisman = 80dmg ticks, total 1120 dmg
84 Int + Headband = 71dmg ticks, total 994 dmg
84 int without Headband = 59dmg ticks, total 885 dmg
All testing done on giant next to secluded cell grace, after getting aggro.

Submit

you can hit ladder campers with this

Submit

Use this to kill ladder campers when they’re camping death drop sized ladders.

Submit

Adding this to my mimic tear's utility belt.

Submit

This is strengthened by the Shining Horned Headband dropped by Ancestral Shaman guys in the area. I don't know how much of a boost it gives, but it definitely gives a boost.

Submit

Ahh, Rosmarin, you have become beautiful

Submit

Tools all remind me of bloodbornes tools. I used to love those..the executioner gloves and of course the squid arm inused constantly, also the squid for partying instead of using a firearm

Submit

Question is, is this better at dealing poise damage than the Glintblade Phalanx weapon art? Because that thing does a ton of poise damage, on top of being cheap to cast and being able to go on Misericorde.

Submit

Even on non-int builds this thing deals massive poise damage and is particularly useful in stunning larger, slower bosses.

Submit

This item has an A scaling in Int according to the ingame tooltip.

Submit

Scales well with Int. With the Shining Horned Headband it does respectable damage.

Submit

Does it scale on anything?

Submit

Why is this under key items?

Submit

Should clarify that the item is under tools when obtaining it.

Submit

Strengthened by the Shining Horned Headband

Submit

It's not a key item, it's a reusable

Submit

Just got it from chest now cant find it in my inventory

Submit

There’s a headband that increases the damage dealt and it looks cool too
