The world of Elden Ring is unforgiving. Traveling across The Lands Between is a treacherous task from the very start, with horrific and dangerous enemies lurking around every corner. And although grinding it out alone can be surprisingly fun, it can help to have a little backup out there.

Thankfully, Elden Ring has designated areas that allow you to summon help in the form of Spirit Ashes. These spectral beings take the forms of various individuals and creatures inhabiting the game’s world, allowing you to call on them when the odds aren’t in your favor. The game is packed full of different Spirit Ashes to find, and some definitely stand out from the crowd. Here are our picks for the most powerful summons in the game.

10 Dung Eater Puppet

The Dung Eater Puppet is the spirit form of a particularly unpleasant character that you may meet in your travels. Dung Eater essentially trash-talks your character for most of your interactions together, claiming that they’ll take you out next. You’ll even have the opportunity to fight him as a part of his questline, but he makes a far more useful Spirit Ash, as he packs a fairly hefty punch and can take a hit or two as well.

In order to acquire the Dung Eater Puppet, you need to begin Ranni’s questline at Ranni’s Rise, then head over to Seluvis’ Rise to begin Seluvis’ mission. He’ll hand you a potion meant for another character, but if you give it to Dung Eater instead, he’ll be turned into one of Seluvis’ puppets and be available for purchase as a Spirit Ash. This will effectively end his storyline, so make sure you complete your business with the living Dung Eater first.

9 Nepheli Loux Puppet

Nepheli is a character that you’re able to meet early on in your journey, as she’ll turn up regularly at the Roundtable Hold and even aid you during a few boss encounters. Later in the game, you’ll have an opportunity to turn her into a summon using the same method for Dung Eater above, as she was the intended recipient of Seluvis’ potion.

If you do turn her into a puppet, you’ll be granted a powerful new Spirit to summon, as Nepheli’s two axes deal a significant amount of damage to most enemies you’ll run into.

8 Azula Beastman

The Azula Beastman Ashes summon a pair of powerful beasts who fight foes with enormous greatswords. If you’ve fought either of the optional Beastman of Farum Azula bosses, these Spirit Ashes essentially give you two of them to fight by your side. They’re capable of taking on groups of enemies and bosses alike, knocking away large chunks of health with their attacks.

The Azula Beastman Ashes can be found in the Crumbling Farum Azula area, appropriately enough. You’ll find it on the path behind the Dragon Temple site of grace after doing a little platforming down the nearby rock ledges. Continue along this path until it leads you into a building with a room full of crypts, and you’ll find the summon attached to a corpse toward the back of the room.

7 Nightmaiden & Swordstress Puppets

The Nightmaiden & Swordstress Puppets are a powerful combination of summons that’s found in a chest in Nokstella, the Eternal City. The chest is near the Dragonkin Soldier site of grace and is guarded by a handful of enemies.

Despite being guarded by a group, the battle to acquire these powerful and elusive spirits is worth it. They attack quickly, avoid damage well, and are strong enough to take on multiple bosses together.

6 Banished Knight Oleg

Banished Knight Oleg is one of the earlier special summons you’re able to access, and he’s also quite a powerhouse. Quick and strong, his wild attack patterns and fairly average 100 FP summon cost make him a reliable powerhouse for most of the game.

Oleg can be found in Fringefolk Hero’s Grave, near the Stranded Graveyard site of grace. You’ll need two Stonesword Keys to unlock this grave, and after traveling its dangerous depths, you’ll have to defeat the Ulcerated Tree Spirit boss before getting your hands on this summon.

5 Omenkiller Rollo

Omenkiller Rollo is another summon with the potential to deal serious damage, even to bosses. Rollo is unique due to his utilization of attacks that can inflict either a bleeding or burning effect. Both status effects can tear a significant chunk of HP away from enemies when utilized properly.

You’ll find the Omenkiller Rollo Ashes on the East Atlus Bridge leading to the Divine Tower. The bridge is located right next to the Capital Outskirts site of grace. You’ll need to defeat the Fell Twins boss located in the area in order to snatch up the summon.

4 Ancient Dragon Knight Kristoff

Ancient Dragon Knight Kristoff is a very powerful summon with an amazing balance of offensive, defensive, and ranged capabilities. On offense, he packs a major punch, and he comes equipped with a gigantic shield that makes him one of the most damage-resistant summons available.

He’s also able to perform a long-ranged attack where he raises his weapon to the skies, bringing down a lightning bolt that’s surprisingly effective. Kristoff can be found in the Sainted Hero’s Grave, located just outside the royal capital of Leyndell.

3 Black Knife Tiche

If you’re able to progress the storyline of Ranni the Snow Witch, you’ll gain access to the Moonlight Plateau area. In this high rising section of Liurnia of the Lakes, you have the option to take on the Ringleader’s Evergaol, allowing you to fight Alecto, the Black Knife Ringleader. Defeat him, and he’ll drop the Black Knife Tiche Spirit Ash.

This summon is another monstrously powerful entity, but in a unique way. Not only is Tiche agile with high attack power, she comes with a knife imbued with the Rune of Death. She’ll toss her knife at enemies, and it will continuously drain them of massive amounts of health for a brief time. The sheer volume at which she seeps HP from foes is astounding enough to make her one of the game’s top summons.

2 Lhutel the Headless

Lhutel is an absolute powerhouse of a summon. Not only does she inflict incredible amounts of damage, but her lance is also capable of slowly causing the instant death status effect, which is pretty self-explanatory. She can also throw the lance. Oh, and she’s equipped with a greatshield and heavy armor, making her a huge tank on top of being a major damage dealer. And did we mention that she can teleport away from incoming attacks, making her one of the most evasive characters in the entire game?

Costing just 104 FP to summon, this monstrous Spirit Ashe is a great fit for any play style. You can get your hands on Lhutel after defeating the Cemetery Shade in the Tombsward Catacombs. The catacombs are located on the Weeping Peninsula, just north of the area’s Minor Erdtree.

1 Mimic Tear

If there’s one bit of consensus among Elden Ring’s fans, it’s that the Mimic Tear is the most powerful summon in the game. Put simply, the Mimic Tear creates an exact copy of your character – your equipment, moveset, and even your spells and abilities are duplicated. You can even change clothes before summoning it, altering its gear and skills. As powerful as Elden Ring’s enemies can be, there is nothing as strong as your character, especially late in the game.

To get the Mimic Tear summon, you’ll need to make your way to the Ancestral Woods site of grace in Nokron, the Eternal City. Jump onto a nearby rooftop and make your way through the city to find the Ashes in a chest located behind a Stonesword Key door.
