Armor Type | Helms |
Crown of Dusk is a Helms in Dark Souls 3. It is part of the Antiquated Set.
Feathered crown bestowed upon the princess of Oolacile, land of ancient golden sorceries.
Through the guardian Elizabeth's blessing. this raises the power and effect of the wearer's magic, but damage suffered by magic attacks rises in tandem.
Location/Where to Find
- Found near the Keep Ruins bonfire in Farron Keep. Upon exiting the Keep Ruins bonfire room, head northwest to find a tall, white tree (there will be a Great Crab in the way). The Crown of Dusk is at the base of the tree.
- Video location (fextralife video starting at 1h 51m)
- Crown of Dusk Map (n.13)
Notes and Tips
- Boosts magic damage from spells by 10%.
- Magic damage from any ranged or melee weapon is strengthened by only ~5%. This includes Crystal Magic Weapon, weapon arts such as Crescent Blade & Moonlight Vortex, and Pale Pine Resin.

This is so ugly, I will keep the witch hat for my character, those extra damages arent very important anyway

Pros: you'll recieve +20% damage boost for all your magic attacks and sorceries
Cons: lowered defence + you'll look like an owl that just got eaten and sh** out by a bear

Ah yes, the "helmet" which every sorcerer is basically required to wear looks f***ing stupid.

So this means that Farron Keep (the place you find this) is totally Oolacile/ Darkroom Garden, right? Makes sense of why the Abyss Watchers are found fighting the abyss here

In Dark Souls 1, this increase pyro and miracle dmg as well? Does it do that in DS3, it just stated https://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Miracles
under Miracle Enhancement Items that Crown of Dusk is one of them.

i will personally moonlight vortex anyone who uses this headpiece

Anyone know if this crown is like the blindfold mask? As in, when broken the damage vulnerability is only 15% and not 30%?

It should emphasize “keep ruins” bonfire. I wasted time looking and wasting moss from the “farron keep” bonfire

someone listed this as boosting miracles. pretty sure it doesn't

Rather Annoying that it just boosts Spell Magic Damage, DS1 at least it gave a boost to any catalyst's magic adjust
- Anonymous
I don't know...10% damage increase is not enough to wear this abomination instead of Karla's Hat, Sage Hat or Firewitchhelmet...
Maybe for sweating hard in arena...

so much ruined fashion souls potential because of this thing, i wish it gave no dmg bonus so I could use whatever without knowing im gimping my damage. still wear it anyways qq

Just so all of you know, the crown of dusk increases MAGIC DAMAGE. Which means it can increase magic damage of miracles like darkmoon blade too, it's not just sorceries that get buffed. If you don't believe me, read the description.

These comments are hilarious. I play mostly as a female cus if I’m gonna get my ass kicked, at least I’ll look pretty doing it. But even I hate the look of this thing!

As of this date, does NOT affect dark sorceries (tested with Affinity and Dark Edge, on drakeblood knight)

On a game with no compass you should say left or right when exiting a door not northwest there is no bearing.

Does this work like the blindfold mask where if it breaks you only get -15% to magic but the buff stays?
- Anonymous
I need this for my faith build but damn this will hurt my fashion souls
- Anonymous
Is it only spells or is it just magic damage in general? For example would I get the boost on something like the Moonlight Greatsword
- Anonymous
Does the broken one that reduces the -30 by -15 still give the boost .

You guys are crazy, maybe your character is ugly in general. But with this, my male character looks flipping adorable.

Worst item in the entire game simply due to the fact that it forces sorcery users to look stupid.
Why split the sorcery damage in one ugly helm, and carry this***** though the 2 best games of the Dark Souls series? From sucks

I have not seen it mentioned, but I am getting 20% increase in souls from enemies while wearing the Crown.

crown of dusk boosts the ar of weapons that deal magic damage, but not even close to the claimed 10 % :
- greatsword of judgement with 250 magic AR -> +12 ar
- crystal mail breaker with 180 magic AR -> +9 AR
- moonlight greatsword with 325 magic AR -> +16 AR
tested without any ring to prevent hidden interactions
that means the true bonus to magic dmgs is actually 5% , not 10%
The crown doesn't boost the damage of dark Sorceries. Already tested too, so if you need to try it too to test, try it.

You know what would have been actually cooler , if this boost was on sage's big hat or karlas pointed hat or all of them cause they are hoods anyway.

wtf the game data shows this only mutiplies magic attack by 1.04. when did they nerf it?
Directions to items shouldn't be given in terms of cardinal directions. There's no unambiguous "northwest" without an accompanying map.

So how's this sound for a maximum-magic-destruction setup?
1. Wear Crown of Dusk (+10% magic dmg)
2. Equip young dragon, bellowing dragoncrest, and magic clutch ring (a whopping 47% magic dmg boost for all 3!!) In the 4th slot i would probably equip ROSP, lloyd's sword ring, or chloranthy.
3. Hold Scholar's candlestick in your offhand for another 12.5% magic dmg if you are casting sorceries like CSS, but if you are gong for melee like me, just buff your weapon of choice with darkmoon blade (scholar's candlestick only affects your currently equipped catalyst's spellbuff, so you can't cast a buff like DMB and then switch to the candlestick for the damage boost).
4. Watch your enemies' life bars melt away as you obliterate them a total magic dmg boost of 57%, or 69.5% (!!!) if you use the candlestick.
I'll be trying this setup on my current character as soon as I have all the items (still need to farm concords for DMB). There aren't many enemies in this game that are weak to magic (I don't believe there is even a single boss who is weak to magic unfortunately), but i'm betting that the potential 70% boost will make magic more effective even against bosses like the dancer and abyss watchers, who are extremely weak to fire and lightning, respectively. To anyone who's already tried setups like this, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Edgy, dark and climate veils, hoods, crowns, diadems or great mage hats. Yet, you still have to wear this crap cause you cant live without maxed dmg... especially while in DkS3 magic is so underpowered.
BTW it used to give a whole 25% bonus in DkS1, even while magic was good on its own.

Why does they have to kill my friend if i get this item? My poor fren. He just wanted to help

Really wish they just made the Sage's Big Hat have this buff instead.

...Am I the only person who actually likes how this looks?
I wear it just becaues I like how it looks actually..

A true Dark Souls classic, this utter piece of crap makes you look like some hideous clown sulking in deepest corners of hell, yet you will wear it because it buffs your casting skill up to heavens. A moment of silence for Dark Souls2 pyromancer handcuffs.
- Anonymous
also i use these rings1 magic clutch ring which increases your damage by 15%2 sage's ring which increases your casting time.3 young dragon ring which increases your damage by 12%4 bellowing dragon crest ring which increases your damage by a further 20%all the damage stacks btw
- Anonymous
if you are like me you're probably here trying to figure out what items will help you be a boss sorcerer. well i'm going to save you the trouble. there are only two items that boost your damage (besides rings) 1 being the crown of dusk and the other being the scholars candlestick, dropped by the wax covered scholars in the grand items. it raises your damage by about 25%.
- Anonymous
does this stack with magic clutch ring and does it apply to moonlight greatsword?

Does this helmet also increase tha magic damage of weapons buffed with pale pine resin? any1 knows?

I will try to see if it affects DMB or not, if it does, this could make my build alot better.

since crown boosts Darkmoon Blade damage (it's a miracle) https://youtu.be/ldagh80glf8

...you have some reflective armor on. I am currently wearing it with Fire Witch's Armor, Fire Witch's Gauntlets and Archdeacon Skirt. Makes you look like a sort of Sorcerer Prince. This way it doesn't make me wanna rip out my eyes every time I see it. It's still ugly, but it suits the rest of the armor.
Darkmoon blade is a miracle spell but it adds magic damage to your weapon, so would crown of dusk boost that damage as well?

I would recommend linking much more precise videos of the locations for specific stuff.Never found anything with this 2h video skip fest.

The Crown of Dusk doesn't boost sorceries, but rather it boosts magic damage like the Magic Clutch Ring.

Doesn't work with Dark Magic? Tried testing it with Great Deep Soul and Deep Soul, with and without my dragon ring(s), with and without my Scholar's Candlestick offhanded, and never got the buff?

If you are making the crown of dusk as part of your build make sure to use a shield with Spell Parry, either Golden Eagle shield or Golden Crest shield, as they send spells back to their sender.No idea wheter the spell buff helps make the sent spells stronger.

Does it Apply to Soul Dregs and Mercury ... i guess not because it boost magic weapon damage too hmmm ...any one tested it?
- Anonymous
Does not seem to affect dark sorceries either. Tested using Soul Dreg on hollow in High Wasl of Lothric; same damage without it as with it on. Tested Great Soul Arrow alongside it on the same enemies and there was a difference with the Crown on. So it seems to be confirmed that Dark Sorcery is unaffected by the Crown of Dusk.

I freaking loved the extra perks on the helms in DS2. Like Straids Black Hood. I boosted INT and Spell cast speed plus it looked badass. It was super light but had great weight to defense ratio, add with Vestaldts Chest combo it looked and added up to one bad ass flowing caped mage knight. If I miss one thing its those cool caster hoods...

I hope there is any armor buffing pyromancy, increasing int or giving a attunement slot. Something useful for magic users ;).

I hope it's not the only one helmet boosting sorcery... my sorcerer will look plain ridiculous in this stuff... it's not very gender universal.

Found next to a white tree to the far right of the giant door that has to be opened by extinguishing flames. It is guarded by a giant crab
- Anonymous
Crown of Dusk is found beneath a tall white tree that stands alone. In stark contrast to the swamp around it. Not far from it are the mushroom people. If you put these things together, it is possible Dusk was transformed into the tree like Elizabeth was a mushroom. Pure speculation, but food for thought.
- Anonymous
Seems to give a 10% increase only to sorceries. No damage increase with pyromancies or miracles.
- Anonymous
Just curious if this still provides boosts to mriacles, pyromancies, and non magic dmg type sorceries, or if it is damage type exclusive now
it does not look good for male characters XD
