Raider Remembrance quest walkthrough in Elden Ring Nightreign

The Raider’s Remembrance quests in Elden Ring Nightreign take on a different form compared to the Recluse’s and Duchess’. True to his nature, the Raider’s memories are all about big, arena-style fights against intimidating opponents. There’s a bit less lore in this set of quests, but you get some excellent relics for the Raider.

This in-progress Elden Ring Nightreign guide includes a Raider Remembrance quest walkthrough, including how to start the chain, what to expect from each arena opponent, and how to unlock more of the Raider’s chapters.

How to start Raider’s Remembrance quest in Elden Ring Nightreign

The Raider’s first chapter unlocks automatically after you begin the game, but his first quest is gated behind defeating Tricephalos, the three-headed dog and Nightreign’s first main boss. Once you do that, you’ll get to play as the Duchess and unlock the Raider’s second journal chapter.

Raider Chapter 2: Onestrike Gladiator

Speak to the Iron Menial next to the large tombstone in Roundtable Hold’s cemetery, and then touch the stone as directed. It transports you to a gladiator-style arena, where you’ll face a named opponent in one-on-one combat, the Onestrike Gladiator.

Despite his size and status as a named enemy, the Onestrike Gladiator struggles to maintain his poise after Raider attacks. Light and heavy attacks will interrupt the Gladiator’s own moves, and you can knock him back by using the Raider’s character skill. Don’t hesitate to use that when the Gladiator gets close. Activating the skill reduces incoming damage until the Raider finishes attacking.

Nightreign transports you back to Roundtable Hold after you defeat Onestrike Gladiator. Speak to the Menial again, touch the stone as directed, and finish the quest. No more battles just yet.

The Raider’s second quest unlocks in Chapter 4, but that won’t appear until you collect more memory fragments. Nightreign is reticent about handing those out freely. You may get some the next time you complete an expedition, or you might have to challenge and defeat one or more of Nightreign’s main bosses before it sees fit to give you more fragments.

We’re still trying to convince Nightreign to hand over memory fragments, but we’ll update with the Raider’s next two chapters soon.
