How To Get the Pocketwatch in Elden Ring Nightreign

Before you can unlock the Duchess in Elden Ring Nightreign, you first need to acquire a specific item – an old Pocketwatch. This item appears to be a random drop from an expedition, and while some players have reported getting it after defeating the first boss, we found that ours dropped after repeatedly completing the first expedition. Since it seems to be a random occurrence, just keep joining the Tricephalos expedition until you obtain it. Similar to other rewards like Relics, you’ll find the Pocketwatch at the end of the expedition screen.

After obtaining it, you’ll find that it functions similarly to a relic. You may attach it to any character with the corresponding slot for use in your journeys. But here’s how you can acquire the Duchess. Follow these instructions:

1. Step 1: [Action]
2. Step 2: [Action]
3. Step 3: [Action]
4. Final Step: [Action]

Once you’ve acquired the Pocket Watch, locate the Priestess within the Roundtable Hold and engage in conversation with her. Upon showing her your antique pocketwatch, she may express that she has lost it. She might then request that you kindly return it to her.

Here are two choices before you: either hand it over or keep it for yourself. If you choose to hold onto it, it’ll function as an ordinary relic. But if you give it to the Priestess, the Duchess will become a playable character in your game, and the Old Pocketwatch will continue to serve as a Relic that can be utilized by any of your characters.


Finally, upon witnessing an impressive cutscene, you’ll receive a notification confirming that the Duchess has become an ally. After this step, you can choose her from the expedition menu or select her within the hub to guide her to the training grounds. Regardless of your method, she is now part of the Nightfaring family and prepared to confront some Nightlords.
