With only a limited amount of time to spend in Limveld each run, you might want to prioritize certain destinations over others as you grind away in Elden Ring Nightreign. There are dozens of locations to visit on the map, and some of them hold critical resources that can determine the outcome of your expedition.

This guide is all about the best map locations to prioritize on your runs in Elden Ring Nightreign.

Small Encampment

Your first destination should always be the nearest enemy encounter you can find, so that you can quickly accrue some runes and gain at least one level before tackling other locations.

Loot the chest secreted behind the altar, in the hope of finding a Stonesword Key, which will come in handy later on.

The Site of Grace here will allow you to complete your leveling.

Forts

These locations are an excellent source for intelligence on nearby treasures and points of interest. Slaughter your way to the tower and interact with the maps on the desk to acquire local clues on Field Bosses and Scarabs.

A chest atop the tower may also serve as a source for Stonesword Keys.

Conquering a location like this should prep you for the first night boss.

Day 2

After your first Night Tide, the number of locations you can go to will be considerably fewer. At this point you should have the levels to contend with higher level content.

Evergaol

If you have a Stonesword Key or two in your possession, now is the time to tackle these locations and their Field Bosses. The Dormant Powers they grant will carry you through to the boss and the dawn of day 2.

Tunnels

Tunnels and their bosses will be the source of your Smithing Stones, necessary for upgrading your weapons before the final showdown.

Castle

This major location can make or break your expedition, with tons of loot and a boon from the primary boss, and also potentially from the sub-bosses.

The runes you will gain here should bring you well past level 10, and ready you for the second night boss.

Those are the best map locations to prioritize on your runs in Elden Ring Nightreign.
