How To Get Black Dumpling Helmet in Elden Ring

In Elden Ring, helmets offer more than just protection. Some helmets also grant you special attribute boosts and status buffs when equipped. Similarly, the Black Dumpling helmet is geared towards players who enjoy the maddening effects of the Frenzied Flame.

You gain a temporary buff for all attack types when suffering from the madness status effect while wearing the Black Dumpling helmet. Now, with the new talismans introduced in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, you can stack them with the Black Dumpling helm to take your madness builds to the next level. Here’s where you can find the Black Dumpling in Elden Ring.

Where To Find Black Dumpling In Elden Ring

You can find the Black Dumpling helmets from the first-generation Albanaurics, found in Volcano Manor and Leyndell. You can easily identify these enemies by their unique helmets, which look like a black cloth covering their faces.

Finding The Black Dumpling In Volcano Manor

Begin by exploring the Volcano Manor, and discovering the Guest Hall Site of Grace, located in the southwestern region of the manor. Exit the hall using the northwestern door to find a first-generation Albanauric. Using the southern corridor, you can enter another large area where you can farm about five additional Albanaurics for the helmet.

Finding The Black Dumpling In Leyndell

A group of first-generation Albanaurics can also be found in Leyndell. Start by exploring the dungeons, and discovering the Avenue Balcony Site of Grace. Begin from the Site of Grace, and use the northwestern stairs to reach a bridge guarded by a soldier of Leyndell.

Head south and jump over the bridge to find yourself in a ruined area where you can find about five first-generation Albanaurics. It’s important to note that the Black Dumpling helmet has a very low drop late, so it’s advised that your discovery is at least 100, and you’re wearing the Silver Tear Mask while farming the equipment.

Black Dumping Overview

Mask forced on a victim’s head to lend torture an extra degree of cruelty. It magnifies one’s fears and makes them acutely aware of all forms of pain.

Raises attack power when the wearer suffers from madness.When the Black Dumpling goes on, the torturer no longer seeks answers; only to inflict suffering without hope of relief.

The Black Dumpling helmet is an individual piece and does not belong to any set. Suffering madness while wearing the Black Dumpling helmet increases the damage output of all your attacks by 10% for 60 seconds.

If you’re trying to put together a high-damage build, the Black Dumpling helm can come in handy. You can intentionally build up madness and suffer the madness status effect using spells like Howl of Shabriri or using an item like the Frenzyflame Stone . Pairing the Black Dumpling helm with the Aged One’s Exultation talisman can be very powerful, as the talisman increases your attack power by 20% when madness is inflicted in your vicinity.
