Elden Ring, the hit RPG from Dark Souls developers FromSoftware, expands on the classic Soulslike formula with a sprawling open world. There are hundreds of hours worth of secrets hidden in the Lands Between, including monsters, dungeons, and loot. Finding the right gear is essential to surviving the many dangers of Elden Ring, and a good armor set can perfect a player’s build.




One of the best armor sets in Elden Ring for any player who is building around Blood Loss is the War Surgeon Set , which offers a pretty big bonus through its helm, the White Mask . However, finding the War Surgeon Set isn’t easy, and players will have to venture into extremely dangerous territory to claim it.

The War Surgeon Set can only be acquired in Elden Ring‘s late game, after players have managed to reach the Mohgwyn Dynasty Mausoleum. This in turn requires players to either pass through the portal from the Consecrated Snowfield, or teleport directly there using Pureblood Knight’s Medal from White-Faced Varre’s questline.

Once in Mohgwyn Dynasty Mausoleum, players will need to head west from the Palace Approach Ledge-Road Site of Grace, and enter the blood lake. In the lake’s southern region there’s a giant pillar of stone where one of Elden Ring’s Blistered Crow monsters lurks, and approaching it will cause a Nameless White Mask NPC to invade the player.

  • There will be three invasions total. If Elden Ring’s War Surgeon set does not drop from the first invader, it will drop from one of the others.
  • Continue to ride Torrent around the lake to trigger invasions.


Fighting both the Crow and the invader at the same time can be tricky, so players may want to lure the Crow away and dispatch it before approaching the pillar. Whichever method is used, the Nameless White Mask will drop the full War Surgeon Set upon being defeated.

It’s worth noting that slaying

, do it before killing Mohg for the best results.

The White Mask increases the player’s Attack by 10% for 20 seconds whenever they or an enemy are afflicted with Blood Loss. This effect stacks with Lord of Blood’s Exultation and can boost the Attack of Sorceries and Incantations, making it a powerful addition to any Blood Loss Build.
