The Tale of Millicent's Prosthesis

The Legendary Talismans of Elden Ring

Elden Ring is a realm filled with over 100 unique talismans, each offering valuable bonus effects, from stat enhancements to damage amplifications and beyond. Among these remarkable talismans are legendary ones like the Radagon Icon, known for its spell-casting speed reduction, and the Godfrey Icon, revered for its augmentation of charged attacks and spells. While these legendary talismans hold great prowess, the regular talismans should not be underestimated.

The Power of Millicent's Prosthesis

Millicent's Prosthesis is a valuable asset for Dexterity-based builds in Elden Ring, offering a significant boost of 5 points to the Tarnished's Dexterity stat. Additionally, it provides an impressive attack buff following multiple strikes on an enemy, with the bonus intensifying after every three hits. This superior version of the Winged Sword Insignia complements fast-attacking weapons and pairs well with skills that strike multiple times, elevating the strength of such builds.

One notable feature of Millicent's Prosthesis is its synergy with the Winged Sword Insignia and its Rotten variant, amplifying the potential of fast-attacking builds in Elden Ring. Furthermore, players can enhance their Dexterity further by equipping the Prosthesis-Wearer Heirloom talisman, gaining an additional five Dexterity points to bolster their combat prowess.
