Elden Ring: Nightreign has 8 playable characters at release, but only 6 of them are available from the start – the Ghost is not one of them. We will show you how to unlock this class in our guide.
How do I unlock the Ghost? To unlock the Ghost, you first need to visit the Table Round Fortress and complete the tutorial. Next, you need to acquire the relic “Tainted Frame” from the Vessel Bazaar, but it will not be available for purchase immediately. We will show you how the item makes its way into the shop.
How do I find the Tainted Frame? To unlock the Tainted Frame for purchase, you must first unlock the Countess as a playable character.
After that, the Tainted Frame will be available for 1,500 Murk in the Vessel Bazaar. You obtain Murk by completing expeditions – victory or defeat does not matter. Buy the item to unlock the next step.
How do I complete the Ghost’s quest? To unlock the Ghost, you now need to go through the passage at the station to change your character and then keep to the left. There, you will see a Ghost in front of a wall looking at the paintings – interact with it.
You will now be teleported to a small arena and must face the Ghost and its three henchmen. Once you have defeated the boss, you instantly unlock the Ghost and will be taken back to the Table Round.
Tips for fighting the Ghost: The Ghost is particularly difficult because it brings three allies into the battle, and you must fight solo without bringing friends. Therefore, consider the following tips:
- Defeat their henchmen first in the following order: Page → Large Skeleton → Masked Troll
- Don’t make the mistake of attacking their melee fighters first, or the skeleton in the background will bombard you with its death laser
- Keep your distance, as the Ghost can throw three holy discs and deal immense damage
- When going into melee, try to rush in after one of its attacks and keep it from its animations with several hits
- The Raider and the Executor or Iron Eye are good choices, as the former can take a lot of damage while the latter is the master of parrying. The latter is known for its safe ranged combat style.
How do I change my character? To change characters, you can access your Table Round Fortress map and then select the “Character Selection” menu option. A new menu will then open, allowing you to swap your heroes.
Heroes can only be changed at the special bell in the main room of the Table Round Fortress. In a match, you cannot change your character.
That was all the information about how to unlock the Ghost. In addition to the Ghost, there is also the heroine “Countess” that can also be unlocked. We will show you how to do this in our guide: Elden Ring Nightreign: How to unlock the Countess (Duchess) as a class
