How to Get Collapsing Stars in Elden Ring

Want to know how you can get Collapsing Stars in Elden Ring?

Elden Ring is the latest title offered by FromSoftware. It follows the mechanics of other Soulsborne games but with a few changes and additions that made Elden Ring even better than previous titles. 

A month since it was released, Elden Ring has sold over 10 million copies across all platforms. 

Collapsing Stars in Elden Ring is a Gravity Sorcery that fires a volley of homing gravitational orbs at a target. This deals damage and pulls them towards the user. 

This sorcery’s projectiles move at an incredible speed, making them difficult to avoid. Tarnished who have fought against Starscourge Radahn will recognize Collapsing Stars as the orb ability the frenzied General uses during the second phase of the encounter. 

Although the spell won’t be as effective as Starscourge Radahn’s orbs, the Tarnished can still use Collapsing Stars to draw enemies from afar for closer-ranged combat. 

In this guide, we will show you how to get Collapsing Stars in Elden Ring. 

Let’s get right into it!

Collapsing Stars Overview

Having a 36 Intelligence requirement, Collapsing Stars deals decent damage at a low cost. This spell can also be charged to increase its effectiveness. However, the gravitational pull of the Collapsing Stars can also put you at a disadvantage in certain situations. 

For instance, Collapsing Stars’ homing projectiles are convenient for nimble enemies like the Black Knife Assassin. However, pulling the enemy into your position is less than optimal. 

In addition, when playing with a party, your mage might accidentally pull the boss away from another ally’s attack or ability. 

Due to this, it’s crucial to understand how Collapsing Stars work before using it. 

Collapsing Stars Location

The location of this spell in Elden Ring is the rot-ridden depths of the War-Dead Catacombs. This dungeon’s entrance is located in the far northeastern corner of the massive battlefield in eastern Caelid. 

However, keep in mind that this area will not become available for exploration until the Tarnished defeat Starscourge Radahn and gained access to Nokron Eternal City. 

Nonetheless, once he is vanquished, players can fast travel to the Starscourge Radahn Site of Grace and head northward towards the cliffs to reach War-Dead Catacombs. 

After entering the dungeon, players will encounter a central room with the Spirits of Cleanrot Knights and Radahn Soldiers fighting to death. Generally, these NPCs will spawn on the same floor of the entryway. 

On the other hand, they can also appear in battle in the rot-flooded level below. 

These enemies are quite dangerous, even for mid to high-level characters in Elden Ring. Due to this, it is highly recommended that the Tarnished sneak past the warriors or use the Unseen Form spell to walk by unnoticed. 

After going through the front doorway, make a right and then left at the corner. Head down into the rot and wade over the chest at the back of the room. Open the trunk to pick up Collapsing Stars and leave the area before being inflicted with Scarlet Rot.
