Where to Find the Axe Talisman in Elden Ring
Good news for some players - the Axe Talisman doesn't require you to take down any bosses in order to collect it. Instead, players will need to locate a cellar underneath the Mistwood Ruins.
You'll find Mistwood Ruins between the Waypoint Ruins and Minor Erdtree in Mistwood.
The location is home to Lesser Runebears, roaming and guarding the area. They've got a hefty amount of XP, so while you won't have to face any minibosses, these creatures sure can feel like one.
Thankfully, though, that's all there is to getting the Axe Talisman. Make sure you're on your guard, or else you'll quickly find yourself reenacting The Revenant.
