How to beat the Jar-Bairn quest in Elden Ring
Before starting Jar-Bairn’s quest inElden Ring, you mustprogress the game until you reach the Liurnia region. From there, you’ll need to find Jarburg, a small town full of sentient jar-people on the east coast of Liurnia. To get to Jarburg, ride south past Carian Study Hall. The easiest way to get there is to spawn at the Artist’s Shack Site of Grace.
Walk up to the cliffside and look down. You’ll see some tombstones sticking out of the mountain that you can maneuver down. Head down to find the friendly town of Jarburg below. Do NOT attack any of the jars, as they are your friends. See the image above for an exact location.
Now that you’re in Jarburg, you can begin the Jar-Bairn quest inElden Ring. However, to complete this quest you’ll need to check off a few prerequisites:
We’ve laid out a quick step-by-step guide for Diallos and Alexander below, so don’t go anywhere! Assuming you meet all four prerequisites, here’s how to complete the Jar-Bairn quest inElden Ring.
Step 1:Warp to the Jarburg Site of Grace and look slightly to your left. You’ll see Jar-Bairn, a tiny warrior jar child, sitting on a wall. Approach the NPC, talk to him, and exhaust all dialogue. When he asks you to become Potentate, say yes.
Step 2:Rest at the Site of Grace and then talk to Jar-Bairn again. He’ll task you with picking some rare flowers around Jarburg. Pick a few (or all to be safe) and then rest at the Site of Grace again.
Step 3:Talk to Jar-Bairn again, and he’ll tell you all about his uncle Alexander Iron Fist, aka Alexander Warrior Jar, the NPC you probably summoned during the Starscourge Radahn boss fight. Travel out of Jarburg, ideally anywhere that’ll pass the time significantly. Keep traveling in and out, talking to Jar-Bairn each time until he starts talking about poachers hunting his people. Honestly, who could ever hurt these cute little jars!
Step 4:Here’s where completing Diallos' quest comes into play. If you’ve completed it, Jar-Bairn will tell you about Diallos' arrival in Jarburg. He’s in the only accessible shack, so head down and talk to him. You’ll see him playing with another Jar-kid. Exhaust his dialogue and then fast-travel out of Jarburg. Warp around a few times until you come back to Jarburg to find Jar-Bairn isn’t where he usually sits.
Step 5:All the jars are dead! Find Jar-Bairn in the middle of the road, and he’ll tell you about Diallos' bravery. Head up the road to find Diallos, who’s dying in the middle of the path. Tell him that he defended the jars.
Step 6:Refresh Jarburg and head back to Diallos' body once more. You’ll find Jar-Bairn standing over it. Exhaust all dialogue and then refresh again. You’ll see Jar-Bairn sitting back in his regular spot.
Step 7:Here’s where Alexander’s questline comes in. If you completed it, talk to Jar-Bairn and give him Alexander’s Innards. Exhaust all dialogue and refresh again.
Step 8:Jar-Bairn should be gone. In his spot, you’ll find the Companion Jar Talisman, used to increase the potency of your throwing pots. Head down to where Diallos died to loot a few more items, including his mask.
