InElden Ringthere are a number of Talismans that come in differing levels of effectiveness. The Viridian Amber Medallion, for example, increases a player’s Stamina by about a tenth and is found in Limgrave. The Viridian Amber Medallion +2 increases Stamina by 15% and is found near the end ofElden Ringin Miquella’s Haligtree.

The Arsenal Talismans each increase Equip Load by a certain percentage - each of the three versions is outclassed by a different Talisman altogether, though. TheGreat-Jar’s ArsenalTalisman is the most effective Talisman for increasing one’s Equip Load, but to find it you’ll have toget through the Siofra Riverand defeat three Invaders.
The Great Jar’s Arsenal Talisman Vastly Increases Equip Load
The Great Jar’s Arsenal Talisman isElden Ring’s strongest Equip Load Talisman. The regular Arsenal Talisman increases Equip Load by 15% and the +1 version increases it by a smidge more. The Great Jar’s Arsenal Talisman blows them both out of the water ata massive 20% increaseto Equip Load.
This increase is based on your current Equip Load. For example, an Equip Load of 50 is increased by 10, while an Equip Load of 80 is increased by 16. It’s a simple effect but one that can mean the difference between being able to equip heavy items or not. Magic users and other classes that don’t put much investment into Endurance will find this Talisman most useful.
How To Get The Great Jar’s Arsenal Talisman
The Great-Jar’s Arsenal Talisman is a reward for defeating three Jar Warriors in the Dragonbarrow. The Great-Jar can be seen from the cliffs above near the Dragonbarrow Isolated Merchant, but players can only meet this silent and imposing NPC by traveling through the Siofra River.

Though some players have found it easy to get to the Great-Jar from these cliffs by carefully and accurately scaling the cliff wall down, it’s much more reliable (and surprisingly less dangerous) to take the route underground that leads to aSite of Lost Grace close to the Great-Jar.
How To Get To The Great Jar
To get to the Great-Jar in Caelid first head to the Mistwood. Go down the Siofra River Well and get to the main, starry area with the torches and Minotaur spirit enemies. Go all the way to the other side of this zone, to the most northeastern point. You will have to ride Torrent to avoid most of the enemies on the way, and be sure to watch out for the extremely high-damage magic arrows being shot from near your destination.
You need two Stonesword Keys to unlock the lift at the northwest corner of the Siofra River, which floats upwards to a Site of Lost Grace at the base of the northern Dragonbarrow cliffs. After touching this Grace, head towards the canyon, avoid the exploding stone creatures, and continue past the Golem firing at you. After leaving this canyon take a sharp left to avoid another Golem up ahead. After getting to the Great-Jar, these Golems will stop firing at you, allowing fora relatively peaceful duel.
Tips For Beating The Jar Warriors
After speaking to the Great-Jar, who only says “…”, three red duelist Summon Signs will appear on the path leading to the gigantic NPC. To get the Great-Jar’s Arsenal Talisman, and earn the Great-Jar’s favor, you need to defeat all three of these duelists. This wouldn’t be a problem if it wasn’t for the fact that theseNPC duelists' equipmentis based on real player builds.
Many players have lamented over fighting three Rivers of Blood wielders in a row, so to ensure the fairest fights here, save your game and enable offline mode. You will still be able to summon all three Jar Warriors, but their builds won’t be taken from players and will instead be relatively random instead - like the Silver Tear enemies. After beating all three invaders, talk to the Great-Jar again to receive the Great-Jar’s Arsenal Talisman!
