Requirement: The enemy can only be killed by executing a parry and riposte just as they are about to catch you.
Detailed Steps to Obtain
Access the DLC: Ensure you have the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC installed. To access this DLC, you need to defeat both Starscourge Radahn and Mohg, Lord of Blood. Then, interact with Miquella’s Egg at the Cocoon of the Empyrean Site of Grace in Mohgwyn Palace.
Reach Abyssal Woods: Travel to the Abyssal Woods, located south of the Woodland Trail Site of Grace. Navigate through the woods until you find the Abandoned Church.
Locate the Winter Lantern: The Winter Lantern enemy is found near the Abandoned Church. Approach it cautiously through the undergrowth to avoid triggering its teleportation attack.
Execute Parry and Riposte: Wait for the Winter Lantern to perform its grab attack. Parry this attack (Golden Parry is recommended), then perform a critical attack. This will make the enemy vulnerable, allowing you to defeat it and obtain the talisman.
