All Rewards From Miquella’s Followers In Elden Ring: Shadow Of The Erdtree

As you explore the world of Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, you’re bound to encounter other adventurers, all of whom are searching for an Empyrean. After many trials and tribulations, you may even acquire some of their armaments. Here’s our guide on all the rewards from Miquella’s followers in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. Likewise, please note that this article contains spoilers.

All rewards from Miquella’s followers in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

The Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Miquella’s followers include:

Needle Knight LedaThiollierAnsbachFreyjaHornsentDryleaf DaneMoore

You’ll meet these seven individuals as you journey across the Realm of Shadow, especially in select areas with Miquella Crosses. Our Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Miquella followers guide discusses all the goodies you can receive if you meet certain requirements.

Some of these characters have their own quest chains, with objectives that lead them to clash with one another. As such, some rewards can only be obtained depending on the decisions that you make.

Needle Knight Leda rewards

Leda is the most prominent among Miquella’s followers in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. You can only obtain her armor and sword near the end of the campaign once you’ve defeated her in Enir-Ilim. You may also obtain two talismans if you keep siding with her whenever she plans on eliminating other companions (i.e. Hornsent and Ansbach).

Weapon: Leda’s Sword

Type: Light GreatswordSkill: Needle PiercerScaling: Str E, Dex C, and Fai DRequirements: Str 11, Dex 22, and Fai 19

Armor: Leda’s Armor (unique); Oathseeker Knight set – Note that duplicate Oathseeker Knight pieces can be found in a specific location in Gravesite Plain.

Talisman #1: Lacerating Crossed-Tree – Enhances dash attacks.

Talisman #2: Retaliatory Crossed-Tree – Enhances attacks executed after rolling or backstepping.

Thiollier

Thiollier’s quest, based on our experience, seems to be independent of other companions. He doesn’t really end up clashing with anyone, as his primary goal is to find St. Trina.

Weapon: Thiollier’s Hidden Needle

Type: FistSkill: Sleep EvermoreScaling: Str E, Dex C, and Int DRequirement: Str 10, Dex 22, and Int 15

Armor: Thiollier’s Mask, Thiollier’s Garb, Thiollier’s Gloves, and Thiollier’s Trousers

Ansbach

Ansbach is a devout follower of Mohg Lord of Blood, though he doesn’t hold it against you (you did kill Mohg just to enter the DLC realm, after all). The Ansbach/Freyja quest does lead to a confrontation with Leda. If you want to obtain all rewards, then you must complete it in full.

Weapon #1: Obsidian Lamina

Type: ReaperSkill: Dynastic SickleplayScaling: Str E, Dex C, and Arc DRequirement: Str 12, Dex 25, and Arc 17

Weapon #2: Ansbach’s Longbow

Type: BowSkill: Fan ShotScaling: Str E and Dex DRequirement: Str 10 and Dex 18

Armor: Wise Man’s Mask, Ansbach’s Attire, Ansbach’s Manchettes, and Ansbach’s Boots

Spell: Furious Blade of Ansbach – Cleaves through enemies with a bloodflame blade summoned from the hand.

Note: Ansbach’s Longbow is a reward from siding with him when Leda invades. However, this encounter might not occur if you’re also doing Hornsent’s quest and you sided with Hornsent against Leda.

Freyja

Freyja is a Redmane, and an ardent soldier of General Radahn. She wants to know of the pact between Miquella and her master. Freyja’s quest objectives are tied to that of Ansbach’s. Note that you must follow the steps outlined in our Ansbach/Freyja quest guide to ensure that you also receive her shield.

Weapon: Freyja’s Greatsword

Type: Curved GreatswordSkill: Spinning SlashScaling: Str C and Dex ERequirement: Str 25 and Dex 14

Shield: Golden Lion Shield

Type: Medium ShieldSkill: Roaring BashScaling: Str CRequirement: Str 11

Armor: Freyja’s Helm, Freyja’s Armor, Freyja’s Gauntlets, and Freyja’s Greaves

Note: If you complete the quest, you’ll have to battle and defeat Freyja during the “Leda and allies” battle in Enir-Ilim. That’s also where you’ll obtain her sword and armor. If you didn’t do the quest, you can return to the Specimen Storehouse – Seventh Floor Site of Grace after defeating the final boss. You’ll find her gear left behind.

Hornsent

The Hornsent is out for vengeance after Messmer’s crusade killed most of his people. He also has a few run-ins with Leda, as mentioned in our Hornsent quest guide. This fella’s mom is also in Belurat Tower Settlement, and you can learn more about her in our Hornsent Grandam guide.

Weapon: Falx

Type: Curved SwordSkill: Revenger’s BladeScaling: Str D and Dex DRequirement: Str 12 and Dex 15

Armor: Caterpillar Mask, Braided Cord Robe, Braided Arm Wraps (hand armor), and Soiled Loincloth (leg armor)

Ash of War: Swift Slash – While doing the quest, you must side with Hornsent against Leda.

Note: If you try to complete Hornsent’s quest, you must kill him in Ancient Ruins of Rauh to get his weapon and armor. If you couldn’t do the quest, he appears in the “Leda and allies” gauntlet battle. Defeat him to acquire his gear.

Dryleaf Dane

Dryleaf Dane is a man of a few words. In fact, no words are necessary if you want to duke it out with him. He teaches you the unarmed combat style and, later, you might stumble upon the Dryleaf armor set while exploring Recluses River. He does show up later during the gauntlet battle, and you can get his gear once you’ve achieved victory.

Weapon: Dryleaf Arts

Type: Hand-to-handSkill: Palm BlastScaling: Str D and Dex DRequirement: Str 8 and Dex 8

Weapon: Dane’s Footwork

Type: Hand-to-handSkill: Palm BlastScaling: Str D and Dex DRequirement: Str 8 and Dex 8

Armor: Dane’s Hat, Dryleaf Robe, Dryleaf Arm Wraps, and Dryleaf Cuissardes

Moore

Moore is probably one of the most mysterious Miquella followers in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. We know very little about him, except that he sells wares in front of Belurat Tower Settlement. Later in the game, he shows up as one of Leda’s pals, and you have to take him out to obtain his gear. He does have some of the heaviest armor pieces in the game.

Shield: Verdigris Greatshield

Type: GreatshieldSkill: Moore’s ChargeScaling: Str DRequirement: Str 49

Armor: Verdigris Helm, Verdigris Armor, Verdigris Gauntlets, and Verdigris Greaves.

Moore’s Bell Bearing – Give this to the Twin Maiden Husk in Roundtable Hold so you can buy some of Moore’s wares.

That does it for our guide on the rewards you get from Miquella’s followers in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. If you’re planning to get more gear pieces, be sure to check our DLC weapons guide and DLC armors guide.
