The Scadutree Fragment locations in Shadow of the Erdtree are probably the most important thing you can find in all of Elden Ring, as these special shards of the bizarro Erdtree have become the new means by which players level up, redeeming them at Sites of Grace for a special blessing.

And what a blessing it is, as Scadutree Fragments, when found, can grant the player a permanent buff to both their damage and defense when specifically in the confines of the Elden Ring DLC. This means that Scadutree Fragments have practically become the new levelling system for Shadow of the Erdtree, or at least have become as important as your level itself. Players will really struggle to beat the expansion if they aren't finding Fragment locations around the map - and we have every single one listed below and how to find them, handily broken up into the game's various regions for you. There's 50 in total - which equates to a Scadutree Blessing of +20 - and these things should be a high priority at all points.

There's a total of 50 Scadutree Fragments spread around the Realm of Shadow in Shadow of the Erdtree, divided across the different regions. Some of them are found on the bodies of defeated enemies (such as Minibosses), some are found on the various Shadow of the Erdtree Miquella's Crosses spread around the region, and others are waiting in key areas as a reward for good exploration.

Some areas even reward you with multiple fragments in a single location, such as the Chalice to the north of the map. With that in mind, we've covered all their locations below, split into the different areas for your convenience. If you need help reaching any of these locations, our guide on how to reach all Shadow of the Erdtree areas and locations will help you there.

Finally, the Rauh Ancient Ruins - the paradisiacal area in Shadow of the Erdtree - has five fragment locations to find.

  1. Dropped by the Lesser Golden Hippopotamus, to the left after you leave the Viaduct Minor Tower.

Acquiring all 50 Scadutree Fragments will allow you to level up your Scadutree Blessing to 20, which means you deal 2.05x damage and receive 0.487x. 

You can acquire the first ten in Gravesite Plain without defeating a single boss, so if you're struggling, jump on Torrent and ride to those locations to level up your Scadutree Blessing to five right from the get-go.
