The Elden Ring DLC is a rough piece of video game, but luckily it is not entirely malicious. The DLC contains more ways to strengthen your character, such as new talismans. I suggest you find the Spelldrake Talisman +3 in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Earth Tree for the best magical defense.
The Spelldrake Talisman +3 is located in a cave along a cliff near the Castle Front Site of Grace camp. If you have unlocked the site, you can begin your quest for the talisman there. If not, you will need to travel to the castle front camp, which is northeast of your starting point. Shadow of the Earth Tree. To get there, you have to cross the Ellac Greatbridge, which has a few enemies on it and a guy guarding the camp with a big ballista that fires tree-sized bolts – which explode. Right, I should have mentioned that this path is not going to be easy.

Fight your way past the enemies or run from them and advance deeper into the camp. Unlock Grace’s castle front just in case.

Once you’ve conquered the Place of Mercy, head towards the center of the camp and stop at the intersection, taking the path that leads north into the forest.

Here is the route you need to take on the map:

At the fork in the path, take a sharp right. You’ll know when to turn when the forest ends and you can clearly see the castle and the wooden structure with enemies patrolling underneath.

Watch out for the bats guarding the path and keep going until you reach the end, where you can jump over a ledge and get to the other side.

You will see a building built into the cliff below the castle, with a door at the bottom. That’s where we need to go.

Jump across the chasm and go through the door. Inside is a storage room with a corpse in the back carrying the Spelldrake Talisman +3.

Spelldrake Talisman +3 is probably the best magical defense talisman in Elden Ring. When equipped, it “boosts the neutralization of magical damage by several times.” If you are fighting bosses that use magic (such as the Dancing Lion), you should give them another chance with the talisman equipped.
There are many more talismans to be found in Shadow of the Earth Tree. If you want to arm yourself against the power of the DLC, check out our other guides:
If you equip these, you should be able to complete the DLC. At least in theory.
