All Elden Ring crystal tears locations

Every single one of the Elden Ring crystal tears locations, as well as where to find the Flask of Wondrous Physick and how to customise its effects

A Flask of Wondrous Physick in Elden Ring on a blurred background. It uses crystal tears to alter its effects.

Want to know where to find the Elden Ring crystal tears? Just like the Estus flasks in Dark Souls, you start the game with healing flasks that you can refill at Sites of Grace. However, this isn’t the only type of healing item available – the Flask of Wondrous Physick is a customisable alternative.

These Elden Ring crystal tears are not to be confused with the Elden Ring golden seeds that upgrade the number of charges you have for your Crimson Flask and Cerulean Flask. There are plenty of crystal tears you can find in one of the best PC games, and their effects trigger simultaneously every time you take a sip, and you can swap them at any Site of Grace. We’ll go over all of the crystal tears’ effects and where you can find them to use with your Flask of Wondrous Physick.

Here are all of the Elden Ring crystal tears:

Elden Ring crystal tears: the standard Crimson crystal tear in the inventory menu.

Crimson crystal tear

This tear restores half of your maximum health. There are two Crismon crystal tears in Elden Ring. The first is next to the statue in the Third Church of Marika in Limgrave East, and the second is on an altar at the base of the Minor Erdtree east of the Outer Wall Battleground Site of Grace in Lyendell, Royal Capital.

Cerulean crystal tear

The Cerulean crystal tear restores 20% of your max FP. There are two Cerulean crystal tears in the game. An Erdtree Avatar, who guards the Minor Erdtree south of the Revenger’s Shack Site of Grace to the far west of Liurnia of the Lakes, drops the first, while the Erdtree Avatar that guards the Minor Erdtree northeast of the Ancient Snow Valley Ruins Site of Grace to the east of Mountaintops of the Giants drops a second.

Greenspill crystal tear

You can find this emerald tear on the altar next to the Minor Erdtree in Mistwood. It boosts your maximum stamina for a short time.

Spiked cracked tear

Along with the Greenspill crystal tear, you can also find the Spiked Cracked tear on an altar next to the Minor Erdtree in Mistwood. It temporarily boosts your charged attacks.

Stonebarb Cracked tear

Kill the Putrid Avatar near the Minor Erdtree in northeast Caelid to get this tear. It makes an enemy’s poise more likely to break after you attack them for a short time.

Elden Ring crystal tears: the Thorny Cracked tear in the inventory menu.

Thorny Cracked tear

When you use this tear, each subsequent attack gets stronger. You can find this tear in the Consecrated Snowfield on a Putrid Avatar close to the Minor Erdtree near Ordina, Liturgical Town.

Strength-knot crystal tear

You can find this crystal tear, which temporarily boosts strength when used, inside a stone acceptable near the edge of the cliffs, northeast of the Stormhill Shack Site of Grace in Stormhill.

Dexterity-knot crystal tear

This tear, which temporarily boosts your dexterity, is on top of the small island southwest of the Academy Gate Town Site of Grace in Liurnia of the Lakes.

Intelligence-knot crystal tear

Another stat-boosting crystal tear, only this one increases your intelligence for a short time. You can find this in a small half-bowl structure with several Spider-hand enemies. You can find it by heading down the slope southeast of the Road to the Manor Site of Grace, then head north when you can turn the corner.

Faith-knot crystal tear

The last of the stat-boosting crystal tears increase your Faith for a short time. Head into the Demi-Human Forest Ruins east of the Church of Pilgrimage. Look inside the bowl under the tree, guarded by poison flowers down the cliff.

Elden Ring crystal tears: the Greenburst Crystal tear in the inventory menu.

Greenburst crystal tear

The Greenburst tear temporarily boosts your stamina recovery and is one of two tears in the clutches of an Erdtree Avatar guarding the tree east of the Smouldering Church Site of Grace in Limgrave East.

Crimsonspill crystal tear

When you use the Crimsonspill crystal tear, your maximum health will increase for a short time. You can find this tear by killing Wormface, a large enemy near the Minor Erdtree in Altus Plateau.

Crimsonburst crystal tear

The Crimsonburst crystal tear provides a different kind of healing to the Crimson crystal tear, as it steadily restores health for a short time. It’s one of the two tears dropped by the Erdtree Avatar beneath the Minor Erdtree east of the Tombsward Site of Grace in Weeping Peninsula.

Opaline Bubbletear

The second of the two tears dropped by the Erdtree Avatar beneath the Minor Erdtree to the east of the Tombsward Site of Grace in Weeping Peninsula. This one significantly negates any damage you take the next time you take a hit.

Ruptured crystal tear

This tear has a negative effect as using the Flask of Wondrous Physick causes the concoction to explode and damage the user. There are two of these tears: an Erdtree Avatar that guards the tree south of the Revenger’s Shack Site of Grace to the far west of Liurnia of the Lakes has one of them, while a second is a dropped item from a Putrid Avatar at the Minor Erdtree in Consecrated Snowfield.

Elden Ring crystal tears: the Flame-shrouding Cracked tear in the inventory menu.

Flame-shrouding cracked tear

The second of the two tears dropped by the Erdtree Avatar, who guards the tree east of the Smouldering Church Site of Grace in Limgrave East. This one temporarily boosts your attack power with fire weapons and spells.

Lightning-shrouding cracked tear

A tear that temporarily boosts lightning attacks you deal to enemies. You can find it, along with the Magic-shrouding and Holy-shrouding tears, after defeating the Erdtree Avatar that guards the Minor Erdtree northeast of the Ruined Labyrinth Site of Grace in Liurnia of the Lakes.

Magic-shrouding cracked tear

Yet another tear that boosts damage, this time for any of your magic-based attacks for a short time. This is the same Erdtree Avatar that drops the Lightning-Shrouding Cracked tear by the Minor Erdtree northeast of the Ruined Labyrinth Site of Grace in Liurnia of the Lakes.

Holy-shrouding cracked tear

You can also find this tear by slaying the Erdtree Avatar near the Minor Erdtree northeast of the Ruined Site of Grace in Liurnia of the Lakes. The Holy-shrouding Cracked tear temporarily boosts the power of your holy attacks.

Opaline Hardtear

You can find the Opaline Hardtear, which temporarily boosts all damage negations, by slaying the Putrid Avatar in the northeast part of the Caelid region.

Speckled Hardtear

Another one of the Hardtears, this boosts resistance and heals the effects of any status ailments you are currently suffering. You get this by killing Wormface near the Minor Erdtree in Altus Plateau.

Elden Ring crystal tears: the Leaden Hardtear in the inventory menu.

Leaden Hardtear

This tear temporarily boosts your poise, and it’s one of the two you can find by beating the Ulcerated Tree Spirit southeast of the Ninth Mt. Gelmir campsite Site of Grace in Mt. Gelmir.

Cerulean hidden tear

The second tear you get for killing the Ulcerated Tree Spirit southeast of the Ninth Mt. Gelmir campsite Site of Grace in Mt. Gelmir. This one eliminates all FP consumption for a short time.

Twiggy cracked tear

The Twiggy Cracked tear briefly stops rune loss upon your death. You can find it on an altar at the base of the Minor Erdtree east of the Outer Wall Battleground Site of Grace in Leyndell, Royal Capital.

Winged crystal tear

A valuable tear that temporarily reduces your equipment load. You can find it on an altar surrounded by skulls northeast of the Outer Wall Battleground Site of Grace in Leyndell, Royal Capital.

Windy crystal tear

When you use this tear, it enhances your dodge rolls for a short time. You can find it in Caelid by looking in a pit southeast of the Nomadic Merchant South of the Southern Aeonia Swamp Bank Site of Grace.

Crimson Bubbletear

This Bubbletear restores your health whenever you’re near death. You can find it by killing the Erdtree Avatar guarding the Minor Erdtree northeast of the Ancient Snow Valley Ruins Site of Grace to the east of Mountaintops of the Giants.

Elden Ring crystal tears - the Crimson Bubbletear in the inventory.

Crimsonwhorl Bubbletear

This tear converts any damage you take into health. You can find it on the cliff ledge south of the Giant’s Gravepost, accessed northeast from the Foot of the Forge area on the Mountaintops of the Giants.

Purifying crystal tear

You can find this crystal tear by defeating the invader Bloody Finger Eleonora in the Second Church of Marika, who appears during Bloody Finger Hunter Yura’s Elden Ring quest. Consuming a charge of the Flask of Wondrous Physick with this equipped will purify the Lord of Blood’s curse you experience during the fight against Mohg, Lord of Blood, one of the many Elden Ring bosses.

How to get the Elden Ring Flask of Wondrous Physick

To get the Flask of Wondrous Physick, you must reach the Third Church of Marika in Limgrave East. You will find it in front of a statue and a crystal tear that you mix to customise the flask’s effects.
