Larval Tear Elden Ring Locations & Uses (2025 Guide)

Larval Tear item


When the lands between twist and burn under the weight of your choices, there’s one rare item that lets you begin again — the Larval Tear. Whether you misallocated stat points or just want to experiment with new builds, Larval Tears are your ticket to a fresh path in Elden Ring. But with their scarcity, finding even one can feel like uncovering a buried memory.


This complete 2025 guide will walk you through every Larval Tear location , detail how to use them , and reveal secret mechanics tied to rebirth.

What Is a Larval Tear?


The Larval Tear is a key consumable item that allows players to respec their character’s attributes. But there’s a catch: you’ll need to progress far enough to unlock rebirth — a mechanic offered by Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon — and have at least one Larval Tear in your inventory.


Each tear lets you redistribute your level points, returning your stats to their base class levels. Perfect for fine-tuning your build or shifting to an entirely different playstyle — from strength-focused Colossal Weapons to nimble Dexterity or Faith-driven caster builds.

How to Unlock Rebirth with Rennala

  1. Defeat Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon in Raya Lucaria Grand Library .

  2. After her defeat, she becomes a passive NPC.

  3. Speak to her to open the Rebirth menu.

  4. You must have at least one Larval Tear to respec.


Note: You can only respec as many times as you have Larval Tears. Use them wisely.
