The armor sets of Master Azur and Master Lusat are coveted by sorcerers in Elden Ring, not just for their aesthetic appeal but also for the significant boosts they provide to specific types of sorceries. Obtaining these sets, however, requires dedication, exploration, and the completion of a complex questline. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how to acquire these legendary garments.

Acquiring Lusat’s and Azur’s Armor: A Step-by-Step Guide

Getting your hands on these powerful armor sets is intrinsically tied to the questline of Sorceress Sellen. This quest is lengthy and involves significant exploration across the Lands Between, but the rewards are well worth the effort for any aspiring mage.

The Short Answer

Azur’s Glintstone Crown: Found on the corpse of Master Azur himself, located on Mt. Gelmir, north of Hermit Village in the Altus Plateau. No quest required, simply find his body.
Lusat’s Set: This includes Lusat’s Glintstone Crown, Lusat’s Robe, Lusat’s Manchettes, and Old Sorcerer’s Legwraps. This set is located within the Sellia Hideaway in Caelid after completing Sorceress Sellen’s questline.

Sellen’s Questline: The Key to Lusat’s Armor

Here’s a more comprehensive overview of the questline steps:

Find Sorceress Sellen: She is initially located in the Waypoint Ruins in Limgrave, beneath a Mad Pumpkin Head boss. Talk to her to begin her quest. Exhaust her dialogue and agree to become her apprentice.
Find Master Azur: Head to Mt. Gelmir, north of Hermit Village in the Altus Plateau. You’ll find Master Azur sitting on a cliff edge. Interact with him to receive the Comet Azur sorcery, and claim his Glintstone Crown from his body. This step is crucial for progressing Sellen’s quest, but more importantly, it nets you one of the most powerful sorceries in the game.
Report Back to Sellen: Return to the Waypoint Ruins and speak with Sellen. She will mention her connection to other sorcerers and the need to seek them out.
Find Master Lusat: This requires the Sellian Sealbreaker, which Sellen will give you. Head to the Sellia Hideaway in Caelid, a hidden cave located behind an illusory wall. Navigate through the challenging dungeon, using the Sealbreaker on the ward at the end to access Master Lusat. He is not an enemy; simply interacting with him will progress the quest.
Find Sellen’s Real Body: After interacting with Lusat, return to Sellen in the Waypoint Ruins. Exhaust her dialogue and she’ll tell you to find her real body. Her body is found in the Witchbane Ruins in the Weeping Peninsula. Inside you will find Sellen shackled to the wall. There you will remove her Primal Glintstone from her body.
Find Sellen’s New Body: Head to Raya Lucaria Grand Library, where you fought Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon. Exit out to the courtyard. There is an illusory wall to the right side. Behind it is a room with Sellen’s new body. Insert the Primal Glintstone into her new body.
Choose Your Allegiance: After restoring Sellen, you will need to speak with her, exhausting all dialogue. This will lead to a choice. You must either side with Sellen or with Jerren.
- Siding with Sellen: Place Sellen’s sign outside the Grand Library entrance and enter the boss fight. Defeat Jerren with Sellen to complete her quest and change Rennala’s appearance. Then speak with Sellen to receive the Glintstone Kris dagger.
- Siding with Jerren: Place Jerren’s sign outside the Grand Library entrance and enter the boss fight. Defeat Sellen with Jerren.
Claim Your Rewards: Regardless of your choice, the following will happen:
- Sellen’s Quest Completion: Following your choice, return to the Raya Lucaria Grand Library. Look to the left of Rennala. Sellen can be found here, as a grotesque sphere of heads. This is the final completion of her quest.
- Lusat’s Armor: Return to the chamber where you found Master Lusat in the Sellia Hideaway. The Lusat’s Set will now be available for collection.

The Importance of Exploration and Perseverance

This questline is notorious for its complexity and the difficulty in locating key figures and hidden areas. Perseverance, thorough exploration, and consulting guides when needed are essential to successfully acquiring both Azur’s Glintstone Crown and Lusat’s Set. Remember, these armors are not just cosmetic; they offer significant gameplay advantages for dedicated sorcerers.

2. Is Lusat’s Glintstone Crown worth the downside?

Lusat’s Glintstone Crown significantly boosts the power of sorceries but drastically increases their FP cost. Whether it’s worth it depends on your build, FP pool, and playstyle. If you can manage the increased cost, the damage output is unmatched.

3. Can I get both crowns in a single playthrough?

Yes, you can respec your character using Larval Tears and Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon. This allows you to redistribute your stats to better suit a sorcery-focused build and manage the FP costs associated with the crowns.

6. What is the best armor combination with Azur’s and Lusat’s Crowns?

There isn’t a single “best” combination, as it depends on your preferences and build.

The Snow Witch Set provides a combination of magic resistance and cold resistance, while also looking stylish.

7. Do these crowns stack with other FP reduction effects?

Yes, the increased FP costs from Azur’s and Lusat’s Glintstone Crowns stack with other effects. For example, using a staff that reduces FP consumption or equipping talismans that reduce FP costs can help offset the increased cost.

8. Is it possible to miss out on these armor sets?

Yes, it is possible to miss out on Lusat’s Set if you fail to complete Sorceress Sellen’s questline correctly or make specific choices that lock you out of its completion.

9. Does the Sellen questline affect other quests?

Yes, the Sellen questline can intersect with other NPC questlines, particularly those of Jerren. You must make a choice that will lock you into either Jerren’s or Sellen’s side.

10. What are some effective spells to use with these crowns?

With Azur’s Glintstone Crown, fast-casting spells like Glintstone Pebble and Swift Glintstone Shard benefit greatly. With Lusat’s Glintstone Crown, powerful sorceries like Comet Azur, Stars of Ruin, and Ranni’s Dark Moon can deal massive damage if you can manage the FP cost.

11. Where can I find Larval Tears for respecs?

Larval Tears can be found throughout the Lands Between, often dropped by Mimic Tears or acquired from certain merchants. They are essential for experimenting with different builds.

12. How do I access Mt. Gelmir?

Poise determines how resistant your character is to being staggered by enemy attacks. Higher poise allows you to cast spells without being interrupted, which is crucial for using powerful, slow-casting sorceries.

15. Where can I learn more about Elden Ring strategies and builds?

There are numerous online resources, including wikis, forums, and video guides. Exploring these resources can help you optimize your build and playstyle. Consider also exploring sites like the Games Learning Society to understand the deeper mechanics and strategic elements of Elden Ring.
