Straight Sword fans have received some new additions with Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. But how do these newcomers stack up in terms of efficiency?

The Bloom summon can be particularly difficult to find, especially if you’re not even sure what area it’s in. So with that in mind, let’s take a closer look at these aspects of the Crucible summon, its stats, its requirements, and where exactly it can be found in the Lands of Shadow of. Elden Ring.

Overview of Bloom Incantation

Statistics and requirements

Surname	Type	Summoning Type	Stat Requirements	FP costs	Memory slots used	Effect
Aspects of the Crucible: Bloom	incantation	Aspect of the melting pot	27 Faith	23	1	Creates a Miranda flower on your chest that creates a rain of light rays after a short time.

First, let’s go over what exactly this summon is in general. The aspect of the Crucible summon generally gives you a new vestigial organ of some sort that you can use for a short attack before it disappears. The aspect of breath creates a sac of flame, the aspect of horns creates a horn on your shoulders, and of course the tail aspect creates a large and long tail. In comparison, the flower aspect doesn’t create the normal organic organ, but rather a Miranda flower blossom on your chest.

This Miranda Flower then uses the signature ability of all major Miranda Flowers, where they summon these particles of light around themselves, which shortly after become damaging rays of light. Charging this summon before casting increases its effectiveness, which is also important. Overall, this spell requires relatively little faith, costs little FP, only takes up one slot, and is incredibly useful in the right situation. Basically, you should use this when you have a window of time to cast it and you know your enemy is closing in for a melee, then the beams of light will absolutely shred them as they try to attack you.

Found in a rather unusual place

As it turns out, the aspects of the Crucible aren’t really “hard” to reach, but they are naturally hard to find. The video above goes into detail about this, but You should essentially wait until you reach the Place of Grace outside the Church of the Bud in the Rauh RuinsFrom this grace:

Either take the stairs back to the rotten area or jump (like we did) onto the pagoda roof to the east for a little shortcut.
Take the elevator down one floor, then go outside and turn right.
Once you’re back outside, walk to the edge of the cliff and look immediately to your left, you should see a staircase leading down.
Take these stairs and continue straight down the path until it ends right in front of this dome-shaped opening leading away from the cliff.
Walk up to the cliff, look down and land on the rocks not far below.
Get back into Torrent and ride east, ignoring or taking out the flying scorpion spiders.
Just past the scorpion spiders, you should see a group of small Miranda flowers surrounding a large flower.
Go to these Miranda flowers and You should see in your grouping a body on the ground holding the aspects of the Crucible: Blossom upon it.

You don’t have to kill any of the enemies here to get this summoning formula, you just have to go and grab it. There’s nothing else down here other than some materials and a Gloomy Forgestone (1), so you can either fast travel back to any Place of Grace, or go back to where you fell and take the elevator to reach an area directly above where you originally fell, which has one of those pot umbrellas.
