Elden Ring: How to find one of the most touching quests in the game

Elden Ring has a number of amazing quests in its huge, deadly world, but some of them can be missed completely, including Boc the Seamster’s quest; here’s how to find it.

Most role-playing games have quest logs, of course, so you can follow exactly where each quest can be found.

Elden Ring does not have that, so you need to pay very close attention to dialogue hints, and potentially utilise a real-life notebook to keep track of everything.

As reported by Kotaku, one questline has been so well hidden that developers From Software have patched it to ensure that it can be found easier by players.

Boc the Seamster is the character you’re looking for and he’s very well hidden at the start of the game.

He’s initially found in Limgrave, the first area of the game, but he’s remarkably easy to miss. It is very possible to go through an entire playthrough without coming across him.

He is first found in disguise, as a piece of shrubbery. As Kotaku reports, it’s possible to walk right up to him, and not actually trigger his dialogue.

Last month’s patch, though, has fixed this, so that Boc will call out to the Tarnished from a much greater distance, south of the Agheel Lake North Site of Grace.

Now, he will call out to you from across a road, so you don’t need to walk straight up to him.

In his area now is a purple-tinted item drop, so that players are more minded to explore the area in which Boc is hiding. To reveal him as an NPC, you need to hit him, or roll into him, and then his dialogue will trigger.

You should be aware that the quest itself doesn’t hand out huge rewards. You’re not going to be given an immense amount of runes or a new weapon or anything like that; his rewards are actually about altering clothing.
