The Scadutree Avatar isn’t a very tough boss, but it hasthree whole phases, making the fight seem harder than it really is. Players need to learn the patterns of not one, not two, but three different phases, making the learning process longer than it needs to be.

InElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree,major bosses drop Remembrancesthat can be exchanged for items. The same is true for the Scadutree Avatar, which drops theRemembrance of the Shadow Sunflower, a Remembrance that players can use to obtain a weapon or a spell.

Where To Use Remembrance Of The Shadow Sunflower In Elden Ring

Like the other Remembrances inElden Ring, the Remembrance of the Shadow Sunflower can be exchanged for a choice between two items by talking to theEnia, the Finger Reader. She can be found at Roundtable Hold.

If you’re having trouble finding her, she is located in the first room to your rightwhen you teleport to the Roundtable. Talk to her and select the option to receive power from remembrance.The Remembrance of the Shadow Sunflower can be used to obtain one of the following two items:

Which Option to Choose for Remembrance of Shadow Sunflower

Best Option To Choose For The Remembrance Of The Shadow Sunflower

The decision ultimately comes down to the preference and playstyle of the player. An incantation isn’t very useful foran INT spellcaster, and a Colossal Weapon doesn’t do much for someone without the capacity to hold it. Both these items require the player to have a FAI build, which means that those who do not can basically ignore them entirely.

If you want a weapon that deals high poise damage and uses a little FP to deal a ton of damage, then the Shadow Sunflower Blossom is exactly what you need. On the other hand, the Land of Shadow is a must-have incantation for any faith-based magic user. It has very good damage for its cost, and it only takes one memory slot. It’s one of the best faith spells out there. It might also be worth it to get both byduplicating the Remembrancefor someone with a high FAI and enough STR to wield the Blossom.

Incantation originating from Scadutree avatars.

Creates a hail of golden projectiles which are fired toward foes after a brief delay.

This incantation channels the force of the Scadutree’s power, and its gold is accompanied by shadow.

The Land of Shadow is anErdtree Incantationthat costs40 FPto cast. It takes upone memory slotand does a decent amount of damage to enemies who aren’t resistant to holy damage. It works similarly to theElden Stars incantationbut is better optimized, making it the superior option. It takes less time to cast and doesn’t take up two memory slots while dealing comparable damage.

This spell has a fairly large range, reaching most enemies that the player can lock on to, with some exceptions for the more extreme distances. It can deal up to2-3k damagewith the right equipment and buffs.
