As a seasoned explorer and adventurer, I have seen my fair share of treacherous paths and ancient ruins filled with long-lost relics. These stones you speak of, the Ancient Dragon Smithing Stones, are said to grant extraordinary powers to those who wield them. Intrigued by this prospect, I’ve embarked on a quest to uncover their locations.
As an avid fan of Elden Ring, I’m blown away by the game’s intricate progression system for both characters and weapons. Instead of leveling up my character with the typical experience points, I earn Runes that fuel my growth. And it’s not just my character that’s evolving; my weapons undergo transformations as well.
These stones are scarcely found in the game and there are only a few of them to discover in each playthrough. The standard version of the game gives you 13 of these valuable stones, while an additional 8 can be obtained from the “Shadow of the Erdtree” expansion. The following guide will help you locate all of them in the DLC.
First Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone Location
As a fan, I’d describe it like this: Make your way to Grace’s Castle Front Site first. Climb onto Torrent, my trusty steed, and ride south down the hill. Keep going until you spot two massive pillars and some flickering braziers marking an entrance. Enter the Ruined Forge Lava Intake now. Interact with the Site of Grace in front of you before moving forward. Follow the corridors and take the ladder to your left. Once at the bottom, proceed straight until you reach the next room. From there, opt for the left pathway and carry on until you reach your destination.
When you enter a large chamber, make your way to the nearby staircase and proceed southwest through the wreckage that lies beneath. After reaching the new level, turn right and descend the ladder. Press the lever and climb up the now-lowered ladder. Travel along the pipe until the second red lava foe emerges. Quickly hop onto the adjacent pathway on your right. Ascend the stairs and engage with the furnace to obtain your initial Ancient Dragon Forging Stone, as well as an Anvil Hammer.
Second Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone Location
To obtain the second Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone, make your way to the Pillar Path Waypoint Site of Grace. Once there, face south and find the large tower in the distance. Make your way towards it, being cautious of any Gravebird enemies that may harm you during your journey. Upon arriving at the tower, enter its entrance and activate the lift to reach the top. At the summit, open the chest to claim your second Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone.
Third Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone Location
The third Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone is inside the Dragon’s Pit Cave, south of the Pillar Path Waypoint Site of Grace. From the Dragon’s Pit Site of Grace, head straight and take the leftmost path. Follow the cave and navigate the narrow path to your left. Instead of turning left, continue straight and enter the cave to your left.
When you arrive at an expansive space, make your way up the stairs. At the top, prepare to face the Magnum Wyrm, a formidable foe. Overcoming this adversary will earn you the privilege of claiming the third Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone as a reward.
Fourth Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone Location
To locate the fourth Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone, make your way to the “Ruins of Starfall Forge,” which is a previous Site of Grace with a fast travel point. Once there, go south. In the room you’ll encounter, pull the lever on the opposite side to unlock the eastern gate. Proceed through the newly accessible path and take a right turn. Keep moving forward until you reach a red enemy at the end of your path. Then, climb the ladder on your right side.
As a seasoned adventurer with years of exploration under my belt, I’ve faced countless challenges and obstacles, but none quite like this. Following the winding path ahead, every step filled me with anticipation as I approached the towering mound of rubble. With a deep breath, I climbed up the uneven surface, feeling the grit of the stones beneath my boots.
Fifth Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone Location
As a gamer, I can tell you that obtaining the fifth Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone is similar to finding the elusive third one. You’ll need to face off against a formidable boss: Ancient Dragon Senessax, who resides in Jagged Peak. To reach him, make your way to the Foot of Jagged Peak Site of Grace. From there, trek up the rocky path to the south. Descend the hill and head east towards a rift hidden between two colossal mountains. Two dragons will be dueling in front of you; you can either bravely charge through them or tactically circumnavigate the battle and reach the rift behind them.
As a seasoned adventurer with years of experience under my belt, I’d advise you to stick to the straightforward route and utilize both Spirit Springs for an upward ascent. Once you reach the junction, take the right passageway leading up the incline. Be cautious, my dear friend, as you may encounter two colossal boulders careening down the path. Fear not, as long as you remain alert and nimble-footed. Atop the hill, make a left turn and press onward up the mountain. The Ancient Dragon Senessax awaits you at the summit, a formidable foe to be sure. Overcome this boss in battle, and the fifth Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone shall be yours, along with other valuable rewards. Trust me, it’ll be worth the effort.
Sixth Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone Location
After defeating Ancient Dragon Senessax and obtaining the fifth Smithing Stone, continue north through the tunnel to reach the Jagged Peak Mountainside Site of Grace. Then, travel southwest and utilize the Spirit Spring to climb higher, where you will discover the sixth Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone.
Make your way through the southwesterly route over rough terrain, then take a left at the fork in the path. You’ll eventually reach another Spirit Spring there. Use it as a landmark to guide you towards an area filled with slain dragons. Once you arrive, continue traveling due east until you find the sixth stone, which is situated near some Skeletal Slimes adversaries.
Seventh & Eighth Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone Locations
Two Ancient Dragon Smithing Stones remain, hidden in Taylew’s Desolate Forge, situated to the north within the Land of Shadows. To access this forge, travel north from the Ancient Ruins Base Site of Grace.
Seventh Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone
At the ruined forge of Taylew, begin by walking straight from the balcony. Once you’ve reached that point, turn left and walk along the path, careful not to encounter the red enemy. Descend the ladder when you come across it. Continue in a straight line and leap over the gap that follows. Next, climb onto the large pipe on your right and ascend all the way up. Jump to the left balcony once you reach the top. Here, defeat the two Golem Smiths or, if you’d rather avoid them, head directly to the western corner of the balcony to collect the second-to-last Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone without encountering enemies.
Eighth Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone
To obtain the last Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone, go back to the big pipe once you have collected stone number seven. Leap onto the right balcony that appears. Continue moving forward until you meet Golem Blacksmiths. Jump down from there to the eastern balcony. Enter the hidden passage to the east and ascend the concealed ladder. Make your way up the staircase and pull the lever located at the room’s end.
As an experienced adventurer who has braved countless dangers and puzzles in my quest for treasure and knowledge, I can confidently interpret these instructions for you.
