Elden Ring features a variety of accessory items known as Talismans. These unique pieces of equipment provide players with a beneficial effect, such as improving their stats or enhancing a particular mechanic. Regardless of the specifics, Talismans prove to be an item of importance similar to weapons and armor. Progressing through Elden Ring, players will discover several Talisman Pouches, allowing them to equip more than one of these miraculous items. However, the number of equipable Talismans remains limited, meaning players will have to choose carefully.

Throughout Stillwater Cave are various enemies and hazards, many of which utilize poison, which can be mitigated or cured with the appropriate means. Players must venture to the end of the cavern, where they will find the Cleanrot Knight , an optional boss with unparalleled speed and precision. Defeating this great foe will reward players with the Winged Sword Insignia, which drops upon its death.

Vanquishing the Cleanrot Knight is easier said than done, as the fight is strictly in their favor. The swiftness of this optional boss, in addition to the poisonous surroundings, makes for an arduous encounter. By summoning powerful Spirits and avoiding prolonged exposure to poison, players can dispatch the Cleanrot Knight with less difficulty. Finishing this optional boss awards players the Winged Sword Insignia and 3,300 Runes to boot.

"The wings symbolize Malenia and her undefeated prowess. Though she never knew relief from the accursed rot she was born into, her blade was forever beautiful - and relentless."

Elden Ring's Winged Sword Insignia Talisman raises attack power with successive attacks. Hence, each consecutive hit will inflict more damage, making every hit all the more wounding. The Winged Sword Insignia's effect benefits those who prefer unleashing a flurry of blows rather than delivering scarce yet devastating attacks. Although any character may use this talisman, builds and classes that utilize high Dexterity and Endurance will find the most use in nearly every situation.

Players that favor these stats can better wield dexterous armaments, which allow for speedy and less costly attacks. With the Winged Sword Insignia, the moderate damage-dealing capabilities of these weapons become equivalent to strength-based weaponry. Thus, allowing players to release a barrage of rapid attacks with calamitous power. This dangerous combination is only achievable with the Winged Sword Insignia Talisman, making it an exceedingly powerful item.
