The Flask of Wondrous Physick is a special item in Elden Ring. Compared to your Flask of Crimson Tears and Flask of Cerulean Tears (i.e., HP potions and mana potions respectively), this one allows you to combine different effects to make the ideal concoction. Here’s our Elden Ring guide to help you with the Flask of Wondrous Physick and the Tears that you can find.
Note: For more information, check out our Elden Ring guides and features hub. Likewise, please be reminded that since we’re discussing various locations on maps, some images may contain spoilers.
Elden Ring guide – Flask of Wondrous Physick and Tears combinations
The Flask of Wondrous Physick in Elden Ring can be found in the Third Church of Marika. This location is in Mistwood, a small area along the borders of Limgrave and Caelid. You can pick up an additional Sacred Tear for your regular flasks, and Melina pays you a visit as well.
With the Flask of Wondrous Physick in your possession, you’ll notice another command once you interact with a Site of Grace. This lets you make different combinations of Tears, at least two, so that you can gain both effects. Just remember that the Flask of Wondrous Physick only has a single use, and you have to rest in a Site of Grace to replenish it.
Elden Ring Tear locations for the Flask of Wondrous Physick
Most of the Tears used by the Flask of Wondrous Physick in Elden Ring will come from Minor Erdtrees in various regions. Simply find that region’s map and head to the Erdtree icon to reach it. Oftentimes, these locations will be guarded by bosses that you need to defeat to acquire the Tears as loot. As for the rest, they might still be found in certain Minor Erdtrees, albeit undefended, or in other locations.
Note: You can take a look at our guides regarding the Erdtree Avatar/Putrid Avatar, Ulcerated Tree Spirit, and Wormface if you need help with those bosses.
