Elden Ring, the hit RPG from Dark Souls developers FromSoftware, expands on the classic Soulslike formula with a sprawling open world. The Lands Between are full of secrets for players to discover, from terrifying bosses to revealing questlines. In fact, some of Elden Ring's best questlines are so well hidden it makes them very difficult to start, and even harder to finish.

One of these is Preceptor Seluvis' quest, which requires players to have discovered the sorcerer's secret cave, as well as bought all the Elden Ring Sorceries that he has for sale. At one point in Seluvis' quest, players will need to acquire a unique item called the Amber Starlight, which the Preceptor intends to use in a dangerous potion.

Where to Find Amber Starlight in Elden Ring

Elden Ring Amber Starlight Map Location

Players looking for the Amber Starlight will need to have advanced far enough in Elden Ring's story to reach the Altus Plateau.

This mid-game region is found to the north of Liurnia of the Lakes and accessed via the Grand Lift of Dectus or the Ruin-Strewn Precipice. The Amber Starlight can be found in a cave to the northeast of the Altus Highway Junction Site of Grace, which is only accessible through a narrow ravine.

It's possible to buy a Weathered Map of the Amber Starlight's exact location from Pidia, Carian Servant in Carian Manor. However, players who'd like to skip the cost should simply head east for a short distance from the Site of Grace, before turning north and searching for the gap in the cliffs.

At the back of the cave, players will find the Amber Starlight beneath a statue of Malenia and Miquella. There are several Land Octopi in the area, so players will need to be ready to run or fight after grabbing the Amber Starlight.

How to Use the Amber Starlight in Elden Ring

Elden Ring Amber Starlight

The Amber Starlight is a key part of Preceptor Seluvis' questline. Once players have discovered the Preceptor's hidden chambers outside Ranni's Rise and purchased all his Sorceries and puppets, Seluvis will reveal his plan to turn Ranni into a puppet using a magical potion called the Amber Draught.

The key ingredient of this potion is the Amber Starlight, and all players need to do to advance the quest is to bring it to Seluvis.

Handing over the Amber Starlight will reward players with the Magic Scorpion Charm, a Talisman that boosts magical damage but also causes the player to take more physical damage. Reloading the area will give Seluvis time to finish the Amber Draught, and allow players to enter the final stage of his questline.

Elden Ring is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
