One of the biggest draws toElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtreeis the promise of new weapons and armor sets to find and equip. Nothing beats the thrill of finding a completely new piece of gear and trying it out for the first time.
The High Priest Armor Set is a brand-new armor set introduced in theElden Ring DLC. Obtained by completing Count Ymir’s long questline in the Cathedral of Manus Metyr, it is more than worth the trouble, especially for aspiring Finger Sorcerers.
High Priest Armor Set Overview: Pieces & Stats
InElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, the High Priest armor set is made up of four pieces: theHigh Priest Hat,High Priest Robe,High Priest Gloves, andHigh Priest Undergarments. The Hat adds+1 to both Intelligence and Arcane. When all four pieces are equipped, the High Priest set weight is 9.8.
When equipped, the complete set emulates the look of Count Ymir, the NPC who originally wears this set in the game. The gold collar that fans out around the head tends to clip on larger head pieces from other armor sets, making it somewhat awkward to mix and match.

Where To Find High Priest Armor Set Location
TheHigh Priest Setis a reward for defeatingCount Ymir at the end of his questline in theElden Ring DLC. This quest involves finding and ringing three bells in three finger ruins across the map. After triggering the start of the quest by talking to Ymir in the Cathedral of Manus Metyr to obtain the first Ruins Map, here are the steps players need to take in order to fight Ymir:
Use theHole-Laden Necklaceto ring the bell in the Finger Ruins of Rhia, which are accessible via the Southern Shore’s Cerulean Coast.
Talk to Ymir to get the second Ruins Map and ring the bell in theFinger Ruins of Dheo, which can be reached by going through the Hinterlands from the Shadow Keep.
Return to Ymir and talk to him again until you get the third Ruins Map, pointing towards the Ruins of Miyr. This map points to an underground area underneath the Cathedral itself. To reach it, rest at the nearby Site of Grace, and Ymir will disappear from his post. Interact with his throne and it will move out of the way to reveal a ladder that leads down to the Finger Ruins of Miyr. Take the ladder and ring the bell at the end to be teleported to the fight against Metyr, Mother of Fingers.
After defeating her, return to the Cathedral by fast traveling to the Site of Grace and enter the throne room to fight off Jolan. Interact with the throne again to trigger the final fight against Ymir.
Defeat Ymir to obtain theHigh Priest Set,Ymir’s Bell Bearing, and theMaternal Staff.
