Regal Ancestor Spirit Location In Elden Ring

Gaining access to the Regal Ancestor Spirit Boss is not as simple as it may seem. The player has to first light up all the six obelisks. These six obelisks are located near the upper area of Hallowhorn Grounds in Nokron. The player has to go up the stairs to find these six pillars or obelisks before finding the real Elden Ring Regal Ancestor Spirit Location. Here are all the Pillar locations you need to know. 

First Pillar

Once the player enters the Eternal City, Nokron, the player runs through the Ancestral Woods through a broken bridge by riding a horse. Just near the cliff’s edge on the left side is the first Pillar. The player should encounter any enemy that comes in the way. Two Ancestral followers are patrolling the roadsides; the player has to be cautious of them.

Third Pillar

There is one way to ignore the Shaman, and that is if the player goes down the slope behind the brazier. After that, the player can light up the third Pillar.
