Elden Ring Nightreign is not a walk in the park by yourself or with a team. It takes quick reflexes and fast strategizing to survive each night in order to defeat the Nightlord. What can hamper any run in Nightreign is the lack of flasks for healing, which are — thankfully — so easy to acquire in the game.
In Elden Ring Nightreign, each player starts with three healing flask charges. The only way to get more is to find them and, if you’re new to the game, this should be the first thing you do in a run.
Where do I find healing flasks in Elden Ring Nightreign?
Healing flask charges are found in broken-down churches where a Statue of Marika is located. They can be found on the map with these orange icons.
The bright orange icons mark the Statue of Marika locations.
There are multiple churches scattered on the map, but they tend to be far away from each other unless you get lucky. Still, these churches should be among the first stops when starting a run in Elden Ring Nightreign.
On a pedestal in front of the Statue of Marika is a healing flask.
While these are the easiest healing flasks to find, there is another way to get more charges: defeat a night boss.
Elden Ring Nightreign runs consist of three in-game days, with each day lasting about 14 minutes. Throughout the day, a storm circle will close in on a location where players fight the night boss. Some of these bosses may look familiar to fans of the Dark Souls games, while others come from Elden Ring and a few are new to the game. When the night boss is defeated, players will receive a large amount of runes to help level them up, a powerful weapon or buff and an extra healing flask charge.

Is there a way to make flasks heal more in Elden Ring Nightreign?
Yes. In a run, players will come across a lot of weapons that have various passive traits, from making attacks stronger to recovering a bit of health when defeating enemies. There is some equipment that comes with the trait of enabling a flask to do more healing but these will be completely random.

What are other ways to heal myself in Elden Ring Nightreign?
As previously mentioned, certain weapons will heal you either by defeating enemies or just doing damage with the weapon. There are seals used for incantations and they can come equipped with a healing spell.
There are also healing items you can buy or find during a run. The warming stone is an orange rock that players can drop on the ground and anyone near it can be healed slowly. Flasks of Wondrous Physick are single-use items that have a variety of effects, such as increasing stamina, boosting damage effects and healing yourself.
Sites of Grace will also heal players as well as refill their healing flasks, even if you crawl to it after being knocked down when your health reaches zero. Also scattered on the map is a unique bed of red flowers that can provide some healing when approached.
Elden Ring Nightreign is available now for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Series S and Xbox One consoles for $40. Owning the original Elden Ring is not required to play this game.
