Quick Links
Elden RingNPC quest lines color in the world with detail, adding elaborate lore or even unlocking new areas that would not be accessible without starting these quests. But FromSoftware is known for itsenigmatic approach to storytelling, and because there aren’t any map or quest markers, it can be tough to naturally figure out how to start everyElden RingNPC quest.
Including characters whose quest lines intertwine significantly, there are almost 30NPC questsElden Ringplayers can progress through. Check everyElden RingNPC quest below for a brief overview of every quest line and to find a link to complete quest walkthroughs for everyElden RingNPC quest.
