You can permanently boost your character’s damage and defense with Scadutree Fragments in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree. This guide will explain how to get Scadutree Fragments in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree and how to get a Shadow Realm Blessing.
Where to Find Scadutree Fragments in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree
The first place you can find a Scadutree Fragment in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree is the Three-Path Cross Site of Grace in Gravesite Plain. You won’t have to travel very far once you start the DLC from Mohgwyn Palace, as the fragment can be found in the expansion’s opening area.
In general, most Scadutree Fragments can be found next to Miquella’s Cross markers on your map. Once you find a new cross, simply look for a glowing blue icon on the ground. Unlike Revered Spirit Ash, however, there are a few additional locations you can visit to get fragments in the Elden Ring DLC. Here is a list of areas where you can get Scadutree Fragments in Shadow of the Erdtree:
- Miquella’s Cross Markers (usually next to Sites of Grace)
- At the base of Headless Female Statues (the male statues usually have Revered Spirit Ash in their laps)
- Defeating enemies (you can get Scadutree Fragments as a one-time rare drop).

Scadutree Fragment Locations in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree (Early Game)
As stated above, you will find most Scadutree Fragments next to Miquella’s Cross markers. This means you will obtain the new item naturally just by progressing through the game. However, we are going to break down a few key locations where you can pick up fragments fairly early into the story.
- Three-Path Cross Site of Grace
- Next to Miquella’s Cross.
- Main Gate Cross Site of Grace

What does Scadutree Fragment do in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree?
Scadutree Fragments increase your offense and defense stats in Elden Ring. With the Shadow of the Erdtree featuring new bosses and a higher difficulty curve, FromSoftware has given players a system to further buff their character for the expansion.
Below is a list of the benefits you get from getting a Scadutree Fragment Blessing in Shadow of the Erdtree:
- Offense:
- Your character will now deal more damage against enemies. The higher your Scadu Tree blessing is, the more damage you will dish out against foes.
- Defense:
- Your character will now “negate” more damage received. Simply put, your character will now take less damage when getting hit by enemies.
However, it should be noted that the Scadutree Blessing only works while in the Shadow of Edtree DLC map. This means if you return to the base game, your character buffs will not carry over. As mentioned above, this new system is meant to help players take on the new content.
Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdetree is now available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
