Dark Souls III - Estus Vial Fragment Locations

Estus Shards are collectable items in Dark Souls III, needed to boost the power of the Estus Flask and increase the number of abilities it possesses. They can be found all over the game, sometimes well hidden, sometimes well guarded. This guide, translated from Gosunoob.com, will show you all of the places to find these Estus Shards in Dark Souls III. Remember that once collected, these fragments must be brought back to André the Blacksmith at the Sanctuary of Lige-Feu. It can also give you some additional information on the location of these so-called fragments.



Shrine of Lige-Feu

This fragment is on the arches near the ceiling of the Fire-Lie Sanctuary. You will need to purchase the Sanctuary Key for 20.000 souls. When you have the key, go up the stairs to the right, straight to the top. Once outside, go to the tower, use the key and climb. Jump from the roof deck, then onto the terrace on the other side. Enter the shrine again and walk on the arches to access the fragment.

Undead Camp

This fragment is next to the pyre in the middle of the village, where bodies are burning and a dozen enemies surround it, next to the big tree. You don't have to kill them all to get the shard - just push them away from the fire, then run to the pyre to quickly retrieve the shard.

Cathedral of the Deep

Make your way to the fire in the Chapel of Purification, then exit through the main entrance. You will see a monument near the road that goes up the hill, with four praying figures in front of it. You will have to attack these because the fragment is between them and the stone monolith.

Lothric Castle

After defeating the Boreal Valley Dancer on the Great Wall of Lothric, move up the ranks. Go up the stairs to the left and follow the path to the elevator. Take it, but jump before you get to the bottom. Exit on the terrace and look to the right. There you will see a corpse with the fragment of Estus.
