Millicent's Prosthesis | Elden Ring Wiki

Kinda doesn't make sense how you can't pick this up when she dies on her own, like, the body is still there?

Submit

I would feel bad...

But she made the decision to invade me in the middle of a Scarlet Rot swamp. Dismounting me, and then Waterfoul Dancing on my face.

I'll take your pretty good talisman, thanks.

Submit

I like to think that if I betray her and make her bloom at the end of her questline and do the Frenzied Flame ending that she will be reborn as a Scarlet Valkyrie and team up with Melina to take you down.

Let me dream

Submit

Isnt this better then rotten sword you save 5 points in stats and the only diffrence with rotten sword is you get 2% less

Submit

Another mutual-exclusive. I hated it when From teases out our temptation/ guilt by killing a likable NPC for an item.

Submit

I’ve won but at what cost

Submit

On the one hand I know she isn't a real woman and I do not do that creepy Waifu thing with female video game characters that tells pretty much everyone in the room you will forever be maidenless but I'm not killing her for this on any playthrough.

Submit

yers

Submit

They may or may not have patched out the method of allows you to get both. Source: Just tried it, but when you try to attack her at the end of the quest, she gets enveloped by a gold barrier.

Submit

I wasted my opportunity to get this because i finished her quest by assisting her and got the Needle even though i didn't choose the Frenzied Flame path.

Submit

Sometimes you just gotta say screw it I’ll make better choices in new game plus
I need that extra damage output lmao

I fought her as a NPC invader in the Swamp of Aeonia. I got the Millicent's Prosthesis as a reward. I then rescued her via the needle given by Gowry, and fought on her side against her sisters. The reward for this is the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia. You can get both items in one playthrough and they stack.

Submit

I cant not fond her at the Windmill Heights Site of Grace...?

Submit

She IS the Goodest Girl, but this Quik Boi wants that dapper damage.

So... Imma cut her blood out.

Submit

best part is it stacks with rotten winged talisman, meaning if getting both through NG+ youll be racking up some nice percentages for speedy weapons

Submit

Honestly, I don't regret killing Millicent for this talisman, it works great with dual katanas and claws, and i have seen that it also works with de AoW of the Marais greatsword. Also, that way she doesn't become Malenia 2, and completely ruins another region, like what happened in Caelid

Submit

This would be perfect on a dual dagger build but hell if I'm gonna murder someone, even just an NPC line of code to get this thing. I feel like From do this on purpose in their games to see who will give up their last bit of humanity for PURE POWER.

Submit

Sure, she's just code, but I don't need to min-max that badly.

Submit

Soooo why can’t our character just rip it off her when you complete her quest?

Submit

I don’t need this talisman. Who cares about some +5 dex when I can help the arguably best girl.

Submit

It would make more sense if this was the reward for completing Millicent's quest, and if you kill her before that you get Rotten Winged Sword Insignia. It's the opposite instead, for some reason

Submit

Pro tip: get this on you frenzy flame ending because everything dies anyway

Submit

Funny how all it takes for people to kill one of the more helpful and kind-hearted NPC is a good item.

Funnier even that they wallow in self-pity about how bad they feel, as if it wasn't a completely voluntary action derived from their own greed for min-maxing their dex build.

Funniest of all though, is the one guy with the massive paragraph justifying himself by stating that she isn't real. It's hilarious the length some people go to rationalise and justify what terrible deeds they've done.

Submit

Wish there was a way to get this without murdering one of the few characters who treats the player as an actual friend. Wtf, fromsoft

Submit

I got this from falling on her at the end of her quest before they patched it so you couldn't accidentally do that. I jumped from the ledge above her and did 1 damage. I was mad I lost the Somberstone but I guess I did need to kill her for this anyway...

Submit

Yeah but wouldn't it be cool if you got that sweet ass prosthetic arm on your character if you used this.

Submit

The amount of people in this thread guilt-tripping others for being willing to sometimes kill an imaginary person for the sake of SOME builds in a game most of us are playing through multiple times is legit obnoxious. I adore Millicent. But FromSoft arbitrarily decided that players who want to run Dex builds that benefit most from this talisman (so, a whole lot of them) have to kill her. Yes I feel bad killing her, but I'm not the one who decided to atrocity-gate an extremely useful item in a video game, and no matter how much I like Millicent, she's not a person, she's code, polygons, color, and voice lines recorded in a booth. Do I feel bad anyway, because she's well-written? Yes. Am I going to have trouble sleeping at night over this? No, because she doesn't exist. Is it necessary to double down on how hard the game already guilt-trips you for something the developers chose to make an unavoidable requirement for one of the best Dex-related talismans? No, it really isn't! I'm playing this game to have fun. My real life is depressing and frustrating enough without stumbling into dozens of people trying to make me feel like a bad person for doing something to someone who doesn't exist in some, not even all, of my playthroughs. So for everyone out here trying to make this even worse than it already is, I hope you're happy - you're making real people feel guilt over a fictional character who has a handful of lines per run. You've found a way to use a fictional person to hurt real people. Enjoy rolling around in all that self-righteousness.

Submit

For anyone else curious, windmill heights is the first point you can kill Millicent for her talisman, and then also kill Gowry for his.

Submit

Gives hand
Takes hand back
Hand is better

Submit

I'll never get this thing

Submit

When you want to use the Marais Sword but you're a Hero class with an eternal 9 Dex

Of course the cons are the sheer late-game progression needed and having to kill poor Millicent

Submit

The speech she gives after you kill her really makes you feel terrible

Submit

Killed her and her dialogue while dying makes me feel like a real pos

Submit

I gotta hand it to u … kill her an receive a round of app-awes

Submit

I mean if you help her against her sisters instead of killing her, she dies from scarlet rot and seasonal depression anyways. She was kind of a downer with all her mommy issues. Not really setting her all that much. Also the fact this talisman is a 2-in-one in itself AND stacks with any of the heirlooms and rotten sword sig? Sorry but on our NG+ 1 year anniversary I divorced Millicent with a twinblade to the face. It's not you it's me boo. It worked out though, not only did she not get half my stuff, I got half her arm.

Submit

I thought I could close my heart to it on ng2... I was wrong. Beware fellow tarnished

Submit

Congrats. She is dead. Maybe your twin katanas really needed that hand. Or your Arcane stat wasn't giving you enough bleed buildup on attacks. Maybe. Your Strength friend will never know what a monster you are, your crazy Spellcaster GF or your protective Faith brother will never notice. Was it worth it? To go down the path of a dexterity build, to help her just to rip her arm off? I hope you can forget it.

Submit

It was an accident.. I swear!

Submit

I'm sorry little one.

Submit

Typical Miyazaki move to lock such a useful talisman behind a heartbreaking betrayal.

Submit

For some reason From won't let us optimize our builds without being depraved. Sometimes I question Miyazaki's sanity.

Submit

Does this factor in multiple targets? i.e., hitting three mobs at once will activate the first tier?

Submit

Jokes on you. I'm a strength build.

Submit

I can't f**ing believe what I have done
I helped her fight the sisters, and then rested at a grace. I was going back to talk to her, she's sitting there next to the lake.
I'm just running up that hill next to her, I jumped down- I LANDED ON HER, SHE DIED
man
..

Submit

it’s a crime that you can’t get this without killing her

Submit

Are the Talisman Tradeable trough Multiplayer?

I Cant Hurt Millicent because its one off my Favorite Npcs in Game

Submit

After obtaining this, if you return to Gowry, he's already dead.

Submit

+5 to DEX & +99 to emotional damage for having to kill Millicent :(

But at least this combined with Rotten sword insignia & thorny cracked tear boosts waterfowl dance dmg by A LOT

Submit

I really want this, but I wanna stack it with the other reward, and I'm not planning on NG+ since I prefer trying different characters. Can anybody give it to me? I can give you anything

Submit

why...

Submit

Boosts dexterity, raises attack power with successive attacks, causes ever-lasting shame for obtaining it.

Submit

anybody willing to part with dis we can trade, I'm on PS just tell me watchu want

Submit

does this work with ghizas wheel ash of war

Submit

Did you do it?

Submit

Did you do it?

Submit

If you are reading this page, you either are cold hearted or you are seeing if anyone is cold-hearted. Admit it

Submit

Contemplating my first NG+ playthrough and realizing that I will probably want this talisman. I think the best thing to do is kill her in Windmill and just rip the bandaid off as quickly as possible.

Submit

the combination of this, rotten winged, lord of blood exhault and a pair of bloody peelers is downright nightmare fuel

Submit

Why does this stack and rotten insignia doesnt? Does this game want me to be a monster?

Submit

Top 5 most evil character in elden ring (not incl bosses)

5- Gideon Ofnir
4- Verre
3- Seluvis
2- Dung-Eater
1- Maidenless tarnished who own this talisman

Submit

If I have 55 dexterity and have no need for the Unalloyed Gold Needle, would it be better to get this Prosthesis or the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia?

For reference I'm currently 55 Dex 30 Faith 30 Arc (yes I'm trash but I'm having fun) and strictly PvE, no PvP whatsoever.

Dual katanas mostly, sometimes Bolt of Grandad and dual greatswords when I'm feeling the jumpies

Submit

Only maidenless tarnished have this talisman

Submit

I'm a monster...

I forgot to get the spells from Gowry, too, before I killed her, so he also had to die.

Submit

So if i want this talisman, do i miss out on any rewards for killing her before the invasion(Windmill)?

Submit

I Never want to do this im sorry mili im truly sorry

Submit

How’s the damage with a barbaric roar R2? Worth it for my strength build or nah?

Submit

Why couldn't it be "Kenneth Haight's prosthesis" I actually want to kill him. Forgive me Milicent. Because I don't.

Submit

"If you chose to aid her at the end of her quest line and successfully fend of her sisters, she will drop the Unalloyed Gold Needle instead and this talisman can no longer be obtained during this playthrough until a new NG+ cycle is started."
This is not totally true. You can obtain both talisman if you kill her without talk to her at the end

Submit

Lord forgive me for what I am about to do

Submit

For those of you carefully planning out Millicent's demise to get this, you can't kill her when she appears in Altus Plateau after giving her the needle, you have to then ALSO get her Prosthetic arm in Shaded Castle, give it to her, kill Godskin Apostle in Windmill Village and THEN kill her when she appears there after reloading the area.

Submit

If i were to use a multi hit spell like stars of ruin, would i be able to trigger this really fast? Do spells trigger it at all?

Submit

Nice try Fromsoft. Time to respec from DEX to INT

Submit

what have I done

Submit

Killed her in Altus region but she dropped nothing — o well

Submit

im going to do a lv 1 run but this talisman is a big NO for me.

Submit

The Fromsoftware Dev / Translator that wrote this item description really went off. Its worded so beautifully.

Submit

If you own this talisman, it means that you are an inhuman monster who never deserves to see sunlight or breath fresh air ever again.

Submit

It would be a cool story event if after killing her you could meet her again in her scarlet Valkyrie form.

Submit

Even though this is a good item, I will probably never do this ever again. The words coming from Millicent's dying breath had me tearing up.

Submit

of course because I did the 'good' path I get a crappy needle that I can only use in a very specific circumstance that I wasn't intending on using this playthough. thank frumsuck

Submit

*warning* defeating malenia and then coming back and killing the ulcerated tree spirit will not allow you to continue millicents quest.

Submit

IMO the best usage of this talisman would be for non-dex builds to reach dex requirements for certain weapons, while investing those 5 stat points elsewhere, and still benefitting from the successive attack bonus. Pure dex builds would see diminishing returns from this, and would be better off getting the rotten winged insignia instead.

Submit

Could you theoretically kill millicent at the mills for this then repent at church of vows and get the quest's "needle ending" too?

Submit

Easily the best +5 talisman simply because of the additional effect. There's not much reason to use the others (unless you're temporarily swapping just to meet a buff requirement).

Submit

Will she drop this talisman if killed at the prayer room grace?

Submit

It seems a little unfair that dex gets their +5 dex heirloom but better and strength gets no equivalent

Submit

you're better off getting this + regular winged sword talisman for your first run, as you can stack them both for a greater AR increase versus only being able to use rotten winged as it does not stack with the regular winged, and you can only get this or rotten winged per game UNLESS you trade with someone.

Submit

Would've been cool if they made one of these for each stat (STR, INT, FAI, ARC). +Stance-breaking for STR, FP feedback for successfully landing spells for INT, HP feedback for successfully landing spells for FAI, mb some kind of "status effect dot" that causes status effects to continue to build *very* slightly for 3 seconds for ARC.

Submit

does it stacks damage buff on hoarfrost stomp damages ?

Submit

Does anyone have the actual numbers for the damage boost?

Submit

just curious but when it says "successful attacks", does this JUST mean normal weapon swings, or could this apply to other things like spells

Submit

Submit

Seems simple but without checking i wondered, raises attack power with successive hits.
Does it mean after a few hits, every successive hit after gets stronger, or after successive hits there is 1 set increase to the power?

Submit

I didn’t know they updated this. I just have another playthrough and find out I cannot get both the talisman and the needle

Submit

I really want this, but betraying and killing her feels so wrong.

Submit

Why should I ever challenge her after I healed her scarlet rot, gave her a new arm and took my time to talk to her. And why do I get the better reward, when I just kill her at the windmill, instead of helping her long questline?

Ah, FromSoftware...

Submit

need to edit the last line. rad's soreseal also gives 5 dex, so +15 is possible

Submit

I wish i coulda got both her talismans in one playthrough. got the rotten wing one not the prosthetic
