Ranni's questline is one of the most extensive and rewarding in the Nightre, leading to an alternative ending. It begins by meeting Ranni at the 'Church of Elleh (Nightfall)' at night, then later at Ranni's Rise in Liurnia. The quest largely follows its original path but with new challenges. The 'Baleful Shadow (Nightfall)' boss is more aggressive and uses dark magic. The 'Dark Moon Greatsword (Nightfall)' now scales with Intelligence and Faith (Dark), making it a powerful weapon for specific builds. Completing this quest involves navigating the 'Lake of Rot (Nightfall)' (now even more hazardous with 'Shadow Rot' that drains FP) and the 'Deeproot Depths (Nightfall)', culminating in a confrontation with a new optional boss, the 'Shadow-Wrought Astel'.
