Night Armor, a.k.a Sauron Armor, is a newly added armor set in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. If you are looking for a low-key and dark aesthetic, then Night Armor could be the perfect fit for you. Luckily, you won’t have to fight a boss to acquire it.
You will find the Night Armor set deep inside the Bonny Gaol. You can pick it up at a rather secret location by using a Pot Lift and a bit of parkour.
In this detailed guide, we will help you acquire the Night Armor in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree.
Night Armor Set Location in the Elden Ring DLC
Your extensive expedition to obtain the Night Armor will start all the way at Moorth Ruins. You can kill two birds with one stone and pick it while you are here to meet up with Dryleaf Dane during Needle Knight Leda’s questline.
From there start moving toward the East until you find the drop to enter the canyon. The path is linear, and you won’t get lost. All you have to do is keep moving downward and deeper inside the tunnels.
Use your mighty steed, Torrent, to avoid any fall damage and complete the journey quickly.
Keep following until you find a ladder.
Take the ladder and start going upwards for what feels like an eternity. Once you reach the top, you will find yourself in Bonny Village. From there, face southeast and start moving until you find a bridge.
Cross the bridge and keep going straight. The entrance to the Bonny Gaol will be on your right.
Enter the cave and activate the Bonny Gaol site of grace. On your right, you will see a small path leading down into a wide-open space. From there, take a left and continue through the several rooms until you reach a dead end.
You will find Giant Rats, Tumor Man, Putrid Corpses, Living Jars, and Skeletal Slime in Bonny Gaol. You can choose to fight them or run past them quickly without taking any damage.
In that final room, if you notice at the back right corner, there is a door on the ground that leads deeper into the cave.
You will find yourself in a cave. Keep going straight until you reach a junction. Take a left from there and continue downwards. Eventually, you will reach a giant room with piles of bones and Living Jars, trying to attack you.
Run past them or kill them, choice is yours. Either way, keep going straight through the variety of rooms until you once again find yourself in a giant open space.
Take a left and continue straight until you find the Pot Lift.
Jump on top of the lift. First, it will go down but don’t get off just yet. Once it reaches its lowest point, it will start going up. At the top, you will get off, and you can find the Sauron Amor, or, as we know it, the Night Armor, lying there on top of a corpse.
Now that your work here is done, you can explore the rest of the area and fight the dungeon boss, Curseblade Labirith. If you were only interested in the armor set, you can fast-travel to another location out of here.
