Elden Ring is certainly not for the faint of heart. Even the most unassuming of enemies can end up being an absolute nightmare. Players always have the option to call on reinforcements, but there’s also another tool at everyone’s disposal.

If you aren’t familiar with the feature, Spirit Ashes are companions that can be summoned with the Spirit Calling Bell to assist in combat. There are multiple types of Spirit Ashes that provide different benefits in battle, but most deal a little bit of damage and provide a distraction.

Players can only summon one Spirit Ash in an area and can’t summon them again until they rest at a Site of Grace or fast travel to another location. Using the Spirit Calling Bell requires either FP or HP depending on which companion gets selected.

Upgrading Spirit Ashes increases their attack power and defenses and either requires Grave or Ghost Gloveworts. Some community members look down on using Spirit Ashes as it’s labeled as taking an easy way out, but there’s nothing wrong with leaning on a helping hand every once in a while to aid in taking down an unforgiving foe.
