What to choose from the Scale-Bearing Merchant – Elden Ring Nightreign
In Elden Ring Nightreign, you’ll encounter a merchant named the Balance Keeper at the onset of the Equilibrious Beast Expedition boss battle. This merchant offers items that cater to your desires or needs before the fight. The question is: Should you purchase anything from the Balance Keeper? Given his name, it’s important to note that he maintains balance, which suggests that by making a purchase, you may be setting off a chain of events leading to an equilibrium through some form of sacrifice.
What to pick: Scale-Bearing Merchant
Prior to confronting the Creature of Night called Libra during the Equilibrious Beast Expedition, you’ll encounter a Merchant bearing Scales. This merchant offers various items, which are chosen at random from a collection of possible rewards. Typically, it is not advisable to accept any of these offerings because accepting one item will increase power in one area but simultaneously decrease power in another.
If you’re willing to accept a potential downside, the advantages provided by the Scale-Bearing Merchant could be quite tempting. Due to the vast array of offers, it has been challenging for us to catalog all the deals thus far. Nevertheless, here are some that we were able to verify with assistance from fellow reviewers during the evaluation phase:

Should you be prepared to face a possible drawback, the perks presented by the Scale-Bearing Merchant can be quite appealing. Given the wide range of deals on offer, it has proven difficult for us to account for all of them so far. However, below are some that we were able to verify with assistance from fellow reviewers during the assessment period:
- I wish for eventual greatness: Triples HP, FP, and Stamina but first it halves the stats
- I wish for more agility: Gain more Stamina but reduces HP and FP
- I wish for the power of a demon: Eye that shoots enemies but builds up Maddness
- I want a high level: Max level but reduces each time you use a flask
- I want a flask: Adds a flask but reduces your HP
The terms of the agreement offer a hint about what you’ll get, so it’s wise to think carefully about the potential trade-offs involved. Keep in mind that any payment or benefits may come from resources linked to this arrangement.
If you’ve reached a substantial level with good equipment, striking a bargain with the Scaled Merchant may be unnecessary, but it could still be entertaining. Ultimately, the choice is yours. I’m not here to tell you what to do. Instead, delve deeper into our Elden Ring Nightreign content for further guidance and enlightenment.
