Legendary Spirit Ashes are collectibles that an Elden Ring player will require should they wish to procure assistance from some of the strongest warriors that have left their mark on the Lands Between. The item description of these ashen remains will speak of their deeds in service to their prior masters. But now in death, their aid can be gained temporarily when called upon by a Tarnished with the Spirit Calling Bell. Players could also simply be seeking out such ashes for the sake of collection purposes or to net an achievement on their path of getting the Platinum Trophy (or equivalent thereof).
