The Ghostflame Torch is a Torch in Elden Ring. It is a mid-game find in Nokron, Eternal City.

The Ghostflame Torch is a metal torch burning with cold ghostflame, the tool of the Fallen Hawks who prowl the underground rivers; when their last embers ran out they burned the bones of their fellows and sealed their fate below ground. It lies on a corpse on a detached tower beside the narrow rooftops near the start of Nokron, Eternal City, reachable only through the top entrance from the crater left after Radahn's fall. Its flame deals magic damage instead of fire and builds frostbite, and it scales mainly on Intelligence. Torch Attack thrusts the cold flame forward, and like the plain Torch it cannot make light or heavy attacks from the left hand. It suits an Intelligence character who wants light in dark places along with a frost tool.

Why Players Pick It

The Ghostflame Torch is the only torch that deals magic damage, 90 at base and 220 at max upgrade, along with 65 frostbite buildup, which makes it the frost and magic option for an Intelligence build. Its C Intelligence scaling at max upgrade gives a sorcerer a light source that still hits back in the dark tunnels where a torch is needed most.

Notes

"Metal torch that burns with cold ghostflame. Tool of the Fallen Hawks who prowl the underground rivers. When the band's last embers were used up in their long search, they began to burn the bones of their fellows, acquiring the cold ghostflame, but sealing their fate as dwellers of the underground for all eternity.
