How to Respec with Rennala in Elden Ring

Defeat Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon, then return to her in the Raya Lucaria Grand Library with a Larval Tear. Choose Rebirth and redistribute your attribute points. Your level stays the same. Each stat must remain at or above the value it had for your starting class, and you spend the Tear when you confirm the new build.

1. Unlock Rebirth at Raya Lucaria

Progress through the Academy of Raya Lucaria in Liurnia and defeat Rennala. After the fight, she remains in the Grand Library as an NPC you can talk to. Activate the Grand Library Site of Grace so you can return directly when you need to change your build.

If you have already defeated her, open the map and travel to Raya Lucaria Grand Library. You do not need to repeat the academy route or the boss encounter. Speak to Rennala in the room and choose Rebirth. If you only want to change your appearance, choose the cosmetic option instead of spending a Tear on attributes.

2. Bring a Larval Tear and plan the new stats

Check your inventory for a Larval Tear before going back. Each confirmed Rebirth costs one. Before opening the allocation screen, write down the minimum stats for the weapons, spells, and equipment you want to use. Decide whether the build depends on holding a particular weapon in one hand or whether you are comfortable using it with two.

Keep a copy of your current stats if you may want to return to them. That helps if your experiment fails or you discover a weapon requirement you overlooked. Larval Tears are limited resources, so an exact record is more reliable than guessing where the previous points went.

3. Redistribute points without changing your level

1. Speak to Rennala in the Grand Library and select Rebirth.
2. Inspect the minimum values on the allocation screen. They come from your starting class.
3. Assign points to the attributes that let you use the build's core gear.
4. Allocate the rest of the points until the character returns to the same level.
5. Review the numbers and confirm only when you are ready to spend the Larval Tear.

If the preview is wrong, back out before confirming. Opening the screen and reviewing a distribution does not commit the new stats. You can go back and check equipment or spell requirements, then reopen Rebirth. If a value will not go lower, you have probably reached your class's starting minimum for that stat.

4. Check the build after leaving the menu

Open your equipment and status screens and verify that you can use what you planned. Check your intended weapon, casting tool, and spells individually. A weapon can remain equipped even if you no longer meet its requirements, so look for the actual warning or reduced usability. Also check whether a change in Endurance affected your equipment load and movement.

Try the new setup against a familiar enemy before taking it into an encounter you have never played. Use the attacks or spells that motivated the respec, and check that you can recover and move the way you expected. If a stat was only high enough because of a temporary bonus, test the character without that bonus before treating the setup as complete.

5. Fix a blocked or unavailable respec

If Rebirth is missing, confirm you are speaking to Rennala after defeating her. If you see the service but cannot proceed, check for a Larval Tear. If the allocation screen will not accept the new build, check both the starting-class minimums and whether all the points have been distributed.

When a new build falls short by a few points, check its item requirements before using another Tear. You may be able to switch to a weapon or spell you already qualify for. If you do decide to respec again, review the full distribution first. You need another Larval Tear for the next confirmed Rebirth.

For a build with several minimum requirements, compare them all at once before committing. Meeting your weapon requirement will not automatically make your spells usable, and taking points out of a utility stat can change how the rest of the build feels.
