Where To Find Swollen Grape In Shadow Of The Erdtree

Elden Ring - Shadow Of The Erdtree - Aging Untouchable Location

The Swollen Grapes are rare crafting items that are dropped upon killing the Aging Untouchables patrolling the Abyssal Woods. You can reach the Abyssal Woods by using the secret teleportation coffin below the Shadow Keep. It’s important to consider that, unlike other enemies, the Aging Untouchables cannot be harmed unless you first parry their grab attack.

You can parry their grab using any small shield or dagger infused with the Ash of War: Parry . If you find parrying difficult with the regular Parry Ash of War, you can try using the Ash of War: Golden Parry or Ash of War: Carian Retaliation . You must parry the Aging Untouchable when they raise their right arm over their heads. Successfully killing one of these Untouchables will reward you with some runes and a Swollen Grape.

One of the Aging Untouchables in the game also rewards you with the Aged One's Exultation talisman, which increases your attack power when madness is inflicted in your vicinity.
