Elden Ring Nightreign: How To Unlock Duchess

If you like your Soulsborne classes with a bit more flair and a lot more runaway potential, then the Duchess in Elden Ring: Nightreign is your girl. Equal parts theatre and threat, she isn’t just a locked class—you could argue she’s one of the best in the entire game. The only downside? You’ll have to work for her, darling.

Here’s how to unlock Limveld’s most elusive leading lady.

 

How to Unlock the Duchess (Bring a Watch)

To add her to your playable Nightfarer lineup, most guides will have you believe that you need to complete the Tricephalos Expedition at least once. After handing the three-headed mutt his final biscuit, you’ll receive a quest item: the Old Pocketwatch.

But upon my third time reaching and losing to Gladius, the Nightlord of the Tricephalos Expedition, I still acquired the Old Pocketwatch. That said, it is unknown to me exactly what requirement satisfy acquiring the Old Pocketwatch. So just to be safe, perhaps try your best to slay the giant three-headed dog.

Once obtained, bring the timepiece to the Priestess at the Roundtable Hold, and—after a very dramatic cutscene involving possibly too much eye contact—you’ll have the Duchess unlocked for future expeditions.

 

The Duchess, Explained: All Style, No Chill

The Duchess isn’t just a dodgy drama queen—she’s a mechanically powerful class with a bag full of tricks:

  • Passive Ability – Magnificent Poise
    Let’s you dodge-roll twice in a row without eating your entire stamina bar. It also reduces stamina cost for both attacks and dodges. In short: evasion queen.
  • Skill – Restage
    This lets you “replay” recent damage onto nearby enemies like a theatrical encore. It sounds weird, but it’s basically bonus DPS during your recovery windows. Think of it as lag compensation for pain.
  • Ultimate Art – Finale
    You and your allies all turn invisible. Use it to regroup, revive teammates, or just panic-vanish like the flailing band of cowards we all secretly are.

She’s not just a pretty face in high fantasy cosplay. The Duchess is fast, powerful, forgiving, and stylish to boot. If Elden Ring: Nightreign had a red carpet, she’d own it.

So if you’re still dragging around starter classes and wondering why everything hits harder than your dodge roll can handle, it might be time to put a crown on it. Unlock the Duchess. You deserve nice things.
