When you kill Alexander, you will receive 1500 Runes and the Warrior Jar Shard if you fought him before Crumbling Farum Azula. The Warrior Jar Shard provides a 10% boost to attack power of skills, which is a valuable reward, but it’s worth noting that killing Alexander will lock you out of his Elden Ring quest line, which grants the Shard of Alexander, one of the best Talismans in the game.
