The Ultimate Guide to Defeating Untouchables in Elden Ring’s Abyssal Woods


Elden Ring is filled with challenging enemies, and the Untouchables in the Abyssal Woods are no exception. These aged creatures can be particularly frustrating, but fear not, as there is a strategy to defeat them and even acquire a powerful talisman in the process.

To take down the Untouchables, you must first attract their attention and then successfully parry their deadly grab attack. Be cautious as their teleportation ability can knock you down and make timing the parry more difficult. Utilizing a buckler for parrying can greatly enhance your chances of success. Once you spot them raising their yellow tal, it’s your cue to press the parry button and nullify their invulnerability, allowing you to strike them with regular attacks.

Upon defeating these foes, most will drop a crafting material known as a swollen grape, which can be used for crafting purposes. However, one of them holds a special prize – the Aged Ones Exultation Talisman. This talisman is invaluable for builds focusing on Madness, granting increased damage when Madness is present nearby, akin to how the white mask enhances bleed damage.

The encounters with the Untouchables are conveniently located near a stake of America, ensuring that you won’t have to backtrack too far if you meet an unfortunate demise. Additionally, the good news is that these enemies do not respawn, allowing you to take them out once and for all.

In conclusion, mastering the art of combating the Untouchables in Elden Ring’s Abyssal Woods can be a rewarding experience, especially when you secure the coveted Aged Ones Exultation Talisman. So gear up, venture into the shadows of the Erdtree, and show these formidable foes what you’re truly made of.
