if i stick to aeon path until i ascend, will i lose dearan?

[Tsurumi]

im planning to be true aeon but follow the ascension guide on neoseeker and ascend with my party (may or may not bring areelu), ive heard dearan can leave? possibly if you are a rogue aeon? i guess i wouldnt be super torn up if it was right at the end at the threshold, thats when you actually stray from true aeon path to ascend correct?

Both are mutualy exclusive, you can;t get the secret ending as a true aeon

[Yannir]

Daeran only leaves due to your Mythic Path if you go Swarm. Daerans companion quest is notorious for how easy it is to screw up so maybe someone mistook it for that, hence the hearsay, but whether you go Aeon doesn't impact that decision.

Camellia, on the other hand, does leave at the beginning of Act 5 if you choose Aeon. Assuming you haven't already killed her by that point.

Aeon true ending invalidate all other endings. Secret endings invalidate all other endings. Originally, only rogue Aeon could do the secret ending. But people whined so I think you can do it nevertheless.

Also, secret ending is basically the same with every mythic. I would suggest to do the Aeon ending if you never did, because that one is very unique compared to all the other mythic, you literally have a different ending instead of a variation of the regular ending.

Cam is the only one who leave Aeon.

Technically speaking, Daeran stay with you as swarm. Very close to you, in fact.

Actually, you can now. They introduced the option quite a few major patches ago.

True Aeons are not required to go back in time and stop the World Wound from opening, but can instead choose to press on and confront Areelu in the present.

If you do this, and have completed the necessary steps, you can ascend to godhood as an Aeon.

Then I'd suggest you stop getting info from there, because they introduced this change a long time ago.

[soppyamoeba8402]

well, what wiki do you suggest?

[soppyamoeba8402]

Yea, only time it really helped me is in elden ring

I don't know. But probably one that doesn't have pages dedicated to quests, which are just blank.

No information about the quest, no walkthrough about how to complete them. Just a copy pasted snippet taken from the in game journal.

The game was released in 2021. If they haven't finished the quest guide section of the wiki by now, then they clearly don't care enough.

I thought throwing the knife away which makes you an Aeon locks you out of the secret ending?

The purple knife was only required for everyone to ascend, but main character + companions still could (although not as a true Aeon). Then the third DLC introduced another crystal, so the knife wouldn't necessarily be required for everyone to ascend.

Can't verify this part myself, but others have (such as GrandMajora above, and I have no reason to doubt the accuracy even though some commenters can be just as faulty or even worse than the wiki), true Aeons can now ascend. Plus, as part of the Mythic Rank 9 dialogue, they can obtain a duplicate purple knife (or something equivalent to it).

No. In order for the Commander to ascend, you only need 1 fresh Nahyndrian Crystal.

In order for the Commander and all of their party members to ascend with them, you need 5 crystals.

For the Commander, their party, and Areelu to ascend together, you need 6.

-----------

Depending on what Path you follow, and which DLC's you have, it is possible to get a total of 9 Nahyndrian Crystals during the course of the game.

1 - The Purple Stone Knife.

2 - Baphomet. Shoot him with a black bolt during your fight in the midnight isles to get the first. Shoot him again during the final battle of the secret ending to get the second.

2 - Deskari. Shoot him with a black bolt during your fight in the City of Iz to get the first. Shoot him again during the final battle of the secret ending to get the second.

1 - Nenio's personal quest chain. Shoot the boss with a Black Bolt to get them to drop a crystal.

1 - Demon Mythic Path. You'll get a unique encounter with Nocticula, and can collect a crystal by shooting her with one of her own bolts.

1 - Trickster Mythic Path. You will also get a unique encounter with Nocticula, and may collect a crystal by shooting her with one of her own bolts.

1 - Nahyndri. Requires the Midnight Isles DLC, but you can get another crystal from the end game boss by using a black bolt to end his suffering.

Fextralife is not a wiki, it's a front for some dude twitch channel. He included twitch widget on all the pages to pad his twitch numbers, until twitch told him to stop. Don't expect anything once the hype dies.

The fandom is less bad (not a real wiki either).
