Larval Tears in Elden Ring are rare and limited in number, but they are among the most important items to find if you wish to try multiple builds in the game. These tears allow you to respec your character and redistribute attribute points.

The base game includes 18 Larval Tears, but if you’ve used all of them up, you can find nine more Larval Tears in Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. Here’s where you can get all Larval Tears available in Elden Ring’s DLC.
