These tears come from the erdtree. The icon shield has a painting of the collection of sacred tears, and it's description "Greatshield painted with a divine scene; the recipience of a blessed year from the Erdtree. An item that looks back fondly on the age of plenty."

Submit

I just realized after soloing every boss in the game including the final DLC boss that I was missing 3 flask upgrades. fml

Submit

I never found the Callu Baptismal or Stormcaller churches, I've gone 3 playthroughs without knowing you could go beyond +10 lmao

Submit

I've been using a +7 Flask for the entirety of the DLC (and most of the main game remembrance bosses). I'm at the final boss now and I just realized I made the DLC even harder because of my stupidity lmao. Would've made Malenia easier too but too late for that

Submit

How can you accumulate more than 12 Sacred Tears, let alone 99 or 600??
There's a grand total of 12 tear-harboring churches in the list, and AFAIK there's only one per church and they don't regenerate.

Submit

I totally didn't know I could upgrade my flask after like 100 hours in so I went on a binge to get all of them and wow it's so nice not having to chug 4 flasks to fully heal myself anymore.

Submit

I'm a complete idiot. The missing tear was in my inventory all along.

Submit

You...can only get to +9 before any shardbearers, right?I am not going insane, right?I swear, every tear except the two in Mountaintops should be accessible without fighting anything, which should make +10, but I only have +9. I rechecked every church, but there's nothing.

Submit

I did some testing with the last few sacred tears because i got them all at once. Here are the results: from +7 to +8, the healing changes by 30, going from 700 to 730. from +8 to +9, and from +9 to +10 it goes to 755 and 780 respectively, increasing 25 each time, and then for the last two it goes to 795 and 810, increasing by 15 each time. as you can see, they are diminishing returns. I'd quite like to run the same test from the start, to see all the values. But while the first few sacred tears are important, it seems the laste couple you won't miss too much

Submit

Doing a challenge without these made me realize just how important they are. at +0, I need to guzzle 6 to heal up.

Submit

Wow they misspelled a word in the description pls hideos midetaka fix it

Submit

Finally got to 12 after seeing there were two left, funny that they were both Marika churches (2nd, and 1st)

Submit

God damn it. I always forget Stormcaller Church exists.

Submit

12 Total:
1 Limgrave
3 Weeping Peninsula
3 Liurnia
2 Altus
1 Caelid
2 Mountaintops

Submit

Guys this stuff ain't Gold, I'll guarantee it.

"During the age of the Erdtree, these tears were used to spread the faith, for theirs was once a certain blessing."

The yellow amber isn't something desireable unless you're a Tarnished.

Submit

lvl 160 and the last one I needed was the callu baptismal church one. totally missed it when exploring weeping peninsula. tbf its kind of out-of-the-way and hidden by the trees.

Submit

You can hold up to 99 Sacred Tears.
You can store up to 600 Sacred Tears.

Is anyone looking for this info, ever?

Submit

Basically you need to get every one in the region before moving forward.
In the starting zone (Limgrave) you can get 4.
Liurnia has another 3 (5,6,7) so +7.
Caelid has 1 so +8
Altus Plateau has 2, so 9,10
Finally the Mountaintops for 11, and 12.

Do the zones in that order.

Submit

I thought I was going crazy because I was missing a tear on a playthrough but it turns out the Third Church of Marika has Crystal Tears in the usual place across from the entrance AND a Sacred Tear to the north of the site of grace.

Submit

Weird how there's 3 of these in the fairly small castle Morne island, maybe they were planning on putting in like 20 but reconsidered later on.

Submit

im at leyndel capital of ash with a +4 lol

Submit

I JUST BEAT THE GAME WITHOUT EVER UPGRADING THE FLASK CAUSE I DIDNT FIND ANY, HAHAHHA

Submit

THERES 12?????? BRO I FOUGHT MALENIA WITH A +9 FLASK HOW DID I MISS THAT MANY???

Submit

got to the godskin duo while only being +3

Submit

Lol I straight up never found the second church of marika, nevermind the sacred tear there, and ended up with +11 until after the ending

Submit

If this is used to spread faith then that calls into question what exact method that entails, in short try dubious nature and then try no tear.

Submit

I ran through my first play through with my flasks only at +8. I am not a thorough explorer so this really helps.

Submit

Church of Repose in Mountaintops of the Giants

Submit

this is in the wrong spot on the interactive map

Submit

Found all the churches naturally but flask is only +11 came here to find what I missed and went back to all the churches I already found and bellum church had a tear now that it didn’t before not sure what caused it

Submit

I figured out a great way to Heal , altho this tip needs a High Level character about Level 150+ so Late Game or so. ( So HP Potions at +12 Max Upgraded with Tears heals exactly 810 HP.... Seems not bad , however there's an Incantation which heals more than that either Blessing of the Erdree or Erdtree's Heal. ( As tested the Blessing of the Erdtree heals for a Total of 1080HP with just 1 cast , being 12HP per second for 90sec only that's a very fast Heal compared to Bestial Vitality or Blessing's Boon ). The Great Heal is not worth it unless having 50+ Faith , currently with just 38 Faith the best Healing method is from Erdtree's Blessing as 1080 is much more than a Max HP potion... While the cast isn't that long also plus it only casts for 60fp per cast , you could also AoE with this for your Ashes and other players.... I paired Golden Vow with Blessing of Erdtree and i literally Heal almost every damage taken for just few seconds for the Duration. ( Even tho i'm at 80 INT mainly a Hybrid Dex/Mage build , having just 2 decent incantations are well worth the 2 Slots like Golden Vow and Blessing of Erdtree... What's good also you dont need Incantation Scaling with these 2 Spells Buffs as they are Fixed duration buff effects ). Definitely worth the extra Faith points spent at End-Game , as even as a Mage and a Katana wielder... I'm Tanky and have a great Overtime Heal which are the best Combos so far. ( Definitely drop the Bestial Vitality as it Heals really slow and only affects you aswell... I recommend grabbing Blessing's Boon , then later on definitely Blessing of the Erdtree which is a well worthy 1 Cast before any Fights or any Encounters ).

What is the sacred tear lorewise? Is it tree sap?

What is the sacred tear lorewise? Is it tree sap?

Submit

Appears to heal for 810 at +12, and 952 with the Crimson Seed Talisman.

Submit

So only 12 huh :-/

Submit

ok, I guess i found them all naturally

Submit

My flask is at +11, spent the last 30 mins rechecking all the 12 sacred tear sites multiple times, no sacred tear found, is there any known glitches where certain churches don't have it spawn?

Submit

So +12 is the max? The first tear you get sends you to +1?

Sorry never played a souls game before

Submit

I was just missing one and it turned out to be Callu baptismal church. I found all the other ones quite naturally by exploring but this one is a bit out of the way. It's where you get flame of frenzy incantation and fight of bunch of frenzy rats.

Submit

They should add something like the bonfire level to know when it's fully upgraded

Submit

with the two from mountaintops i now have 11. wonder where i missed one

Submit

Map link for Third Church of Marika, actually points to Fourth Church of Marika currently.

Submit

+12 gives 810 health per swig

Submit

By my own testing: (Total heal ||| Increase from previous rank)
Level 0 250
Level +1 345 95
Level +2 430 85
Level +3 50 5 75
Level +4 570 65
Level +5 625 55

Submit

For the health flask, +6= 670, +7 = 700 and +8 = 730. Would appreciate any replies with values on the lower and higher end so I can better asses the diminishing rate of returns.

Submit

+7 cer flask give 170 FP

so maybe base 100 FP and +10 each upgrade

Submit

There is a Sacred Tear in the Church of the Plague in Caelid

Submit

One in the Church of Repose at Mountaintops of the Giants

Submit

Page is missing the 10th in Stormcaller Church South of the Sainted Hero's Grave on the Altus Plateau.

Submit

Page is missing 11th in the 2nd church of Marika, south west of the Mirage Rise. The area is accessible by dropping down to the area from above, by following the trail south off the Bower of Bounty bonfire in Altus Plateau.
