Wondering how to use Elden Ring Spirit Ashes to help you out in the Lands Between? One of the biggest changes to the Souls' formula arriving with Elden Ring is the ability to summon mobs of creatures and individual NPCs to help you once you get theSpirit Calling Bellnear the start of the game.
This extremely powerful ability takes a lot of the pressure away from difficult areas and bosses, as well as giving offline players an easier time facing bosses that don’t have NPC summons. Don’t have a summon for a boss? Just summon an NPC with the bell.
To summon allies, you’ll need Spirit Ashes, and this is a fun element of this new mechanic. These ashes are located throughout the world, in chests, and as rewards for defeating certain bosses. This kind of turns Elden Ring into a summon collection game, as you expand your ever-growing catalogue of summonable creatures. Still, they can be quite tricky to find, so here are the Elden Ring Summons we’ve found so far.
How to use Spirit Ashes in Elden Ring
Once you get the Spirit Calling Bell, all you need to do is equip your ashes as a consumable to use them. These summons are only be temporary, and they will cost FP. They can also only be called in certain locations such as boss fights, dungeons, and marked areas filled with enemies.
If you plan to summon regularly, I especially recommend getting theCerulean Hidden Tear for your Flask of Wondrous Physick, since it eliminates all FP costs for a brief period, effectively making your summon free and not dependent on your FP limit.

In 2021, she was offered a full-time position on the PC Gamer team where she takes every possible opportunity to talk about World of Warcraft and Elden Ring. When not writing guides, most of her spare time is spent in Azeroth—though she’s quite partial to JRPGs too. One of her fondest hopes is to one day play through the ending of Final Fantasy X without breaking down into a sobbing heap. She probably has more wolves in Valheim than you.
