Elden Ring: The Best Route To Complete Bonny Gaol Dungeon And Collect All The Loot!

Land of Shadow in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is filled with interesting locations for players to explore. But some of the more hidden corners hide unexpected secrets that you may miss when you are in a hurry to explore. Of all the easily forgotten corners, the most important one is Temple Town Ruins, because only after you have explored them can you unlock the subsequent secret locations. And some of Elden Ring Items you find in Temple Town Ruins are also an important part of your enhanced build. This guide will show you how to reach Temple Town Ruins and what you can find there. You can slowly explore this interesting place after you have completed the dominant story of the entire DLC. How To Get To Temple Town Ruins? Temple Town Ruins are located in Rauh Base. If you can’t find them, you can first find Ancient Rauh Ruins, which is just below it. After you defeat Rellana, head to Moorth Ruins in Scadu Altus. Once there, head northeast to the lake with ghost worms. You will see a tunnel in front of you. After walking out of the tunnel, you will come across a poisonous swamp. Here you can use your Torrent and cross this dangerous area until you reach Rauh Base area. Once in this area, continue straight in the same direction until you find Golems. After defeating them briefly, continue forward and you will reach Temple Town Ruins. Before entering Temple Town Ruins, you will also find a map fragment of Rauh region at the door. Please keep this fragment safe, as it will be used later. If you want to go to Temple Town Ruins Site of Grace, you need to cross the river, and Site of Grace will be on your left. Temple Town Ruins Exploration Process Before you are ready to enter Temple Town Ruins, make sure you have Revered Spirit Fragment. If not, you need to go to the south of the ruins and find a headless statue, where the fragment is. Once you have confirmed it, you can enter the ruins. The first thing you need to reach is a large building in the center of the ruins. This large building is surrounded by walls, but you will find a small hole in the south side. Go inside and then go up the stairs directly. As you move forward, you will find an elevated ledge behind you, and inside it is an undead with a pot on its head. When you jump onto the ledge, you can fight it or ignore it, as it does not provide you with any XP other than some Elden Ring Runes. Then keep walking forward until you find a Scadutree Fragment on the ground. After picking it up, you can return the same way. I will divide the subsequent exploration process according to the rewards of each part. Two-Handed Sword Talisman After you return to the previous position, continue to move forward. Soon after you walk out, you will see a Horned Warrior holding a greatsword. At this time, you need to defeat it, because when it sees you, it will start to attack you. Also, don’t worry too much about Horned Warrior being defeated early. There are Marika statues all around to keep you entertained in the fight. After defeating them using some strategy, go up the stairs and look to the left. You’ll see a treasure chest containing a Two-Handed Sword Talisman. Two-Handed Sword Talisman can increase the attack power of any two-handed weapon by 15%, but it should be noted that this is for the two-handed weapon, not for each hand holding a two-handed weapon, such as Backhand Blade. If you are using Strength builds that require two-handed giant weapons, then Two-Handed Sword Talisman will be one of your best helpers. Spirit Ashes Of Divine Bird Warrior Ornis After you get Two-Handed Sword Talisman, you can take a break at Temple Town Ruins Site of Grace. Continue walking north and you will find three red pests. Be careful of the harmful lines that the red pests shoot, so be careful to avoid them. After defeating the red pests, turn right and you will see a Spiritspring. At this time, be sure to use your Torrent to jump onto Spiritspring, because you cannot land on a building in Temple Town Ruins by jumping on it alone. There will be a box in the middle of the building with some crafting material and Elden Ring Runes. After picking it up, you need to go around the ledge of this building and jump to another cliff. Keep going in the current direction until you find a sanctuary-like structure. There will be a chest with Spirit Ashes of Divine Bird Warrior Ornis you are looking for. Two-Headed Turtle Talisman You can explore these bonus items in any order, as the last item is very far from the location of Two-Headed Turtle Talisman. To find Two-Headed Turtle Talisman, you need to go to the south of Temple Town Ruins and descend along a circle of ledges to the bottom of the lake. You will find a small rift just below the waterfall. Once you crawl into it, you will see Two-Headed Turtle Talisman on a corpse in the center of the cave. There are also three angry ghost worms guarding around it, which will start to attack you when you enter the cave. You can also use some simple combat strategies to defeat them. Two-Headed Turtle Talisman is a more powerful version of the regular Green Turtle Talisman, which can help you increase the recovery rate of Stamina. If you have participated in some difficult boss stations before, you must know that the recovery speed of Stamina is very important, because you can’t let your Stamina value drop to the minimum when attacking or dodging. If you face some bosses that require a long fight in the subsequent boss battles, you can equip Two-Headed Turtle Talisman. After getting Two-Headed Turtle Talisman, you can choose to continue exploring the lake just now to the south, and eventually you will reach Ellac River area. Or you can choose to continue exploring this area and find some more interesting events. The above is all the information on how to fully explore Temple Town Ruins. I hope it can help you better understand this place. If you have other places you want to explore, welcome to iGMeet Discord to ask many players. I believe there will be many players willing to help you.

Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree is widely considered one of the best DLCs in recent years, not only because it adds a variety of new bosses, armor, weapons, and new areas for players to explore, but also because it provides players with a lot of different lore stories from the base game. FromSoftware, the developer of Elden Ring, has always been known for having some of the most complex and dark backstories, and this DLC does not disappoint. If you think about some of the lore in Shadow of the Erdtree, you will find that it is actually very interesting. This guide will list a few for you. Romina And Scarlet Rot Players who have played Shadow of the Erdtree will definitely know that Saint of the Bud Romina is not the most tough boss in the game. But her creepy design and always unpredictable attacks will make you always a little annoying when facing her. In addition, she will cause a lot of Scarlet Rot, which will make your fight with her more difficult. Have you ever wondered why she could cause this passive effect? ​​And how did she get this deadly plague that defeated Caelid before? In fact, if you explore Land of Shadow carefully, it is not difficult to find that she has a mission to protect Church of the Bud from Messmer. But more players are more inclined to believe that she came across the divine elements of Scarlet Rot at some point and used it to protect herself and her beloved church. This allowed her to keep most of the church intact successfully, but the price paid was too high, as she transformed into the creepy crawler that players encountered in their travels. Players also believe that she is fully responsible for the spread of Scarlet Rot in Land of Shadow, and may even have played a role in spreading it to Middle Land. Miquella Since the base game of Elden Ring, Miquella has always been a very mysterious main character. Players know nothing about him except that he is Malenia’s brother and that he is trapped in Empyrean Cocoon in Mohgwyn Palace. Fortunately, in Shadow of the Erdtree, some of Miquella’s story, personality, and true intentions are unfolded in front of the player page by page, like a book. However, these differ completely from Miquella that players have imagined before, and even destroy the pure and noble image of Miquella in the players’ minds. As players explore Land of Shadow, they will find that this area has become one of the last resting places of Golden Order. Miquella’s intentions appear to be to create a new world of peace, justice, and harmony, but beneath this layer of appearance, he wants to do something improper. He is willing to do anything to achieve this goal, pretending that the end can justify the legitimacy of the means. In Miquella’s pursuit of this whitewashed goal, he lied, deceived, and manipulated many people, including his relatives. Mohg, who was used as a pawn by him, finally succumbed to his “master plan” so that Miquella would look more kind. Gate Of Divinity When Elden Ring first came to players’ attention, there was very little information about Empyreans in the game and how they ascended to godhood. Players only knew that the demigod Ranni was one of the top choices to replace Marika, and there were only a few other candidates on the waiting list, but that was it. Shadow of the Erdtree also answered many of the questions players have been asking for nearly two years, revealing the divine process of becoming a god in Lands Between. And in the last part of the DLC, players will reach the so-called Gate of Divinity, which sounds interesting and epic even without any background to it. Gate of Divinity is not only the battlefield for the last confrontation between players and Radahn Promised Consort in the DLC, but also the place where Empyreans ascended to godhood. While the actual process is unclear, it can be easily inferred that Miquella is the mastermind behind it all. He is looking for the ideal conditions to ascend and transform to reclaim his birthright. Jar Innards Many players may ignore Jar Innards enemies in Shadow of the Erdtree because they are ugly and very ordinary. They are just NPCs that players must defeat to unlock a certain area, and some players even just use them as a tool to obtain Elden Ring Runes. But if you watch their introduction carefully or understand their story, you will find that they were shamans before they were hunted by Hornsent and subjected to many cruel experiments. During the experiment, Hornsent would first chop them into pieces, then put them in a jar and deprive them of their sanity, turning them into mindless creatures that can only attack. This not only fully illustrates the nature of Hornsent but also how cruel Lands Between and Land of Shadows are. So you can always think about this question with every creature of Defiled you encounter in the subsequent games: Are they pure evil, or once noble tortured souls? Reasons For The Fight Between Malenia And Radahn In addition to the fact that players will completely change their views on Miquella in the DLC, Radahn will also change because players will learn a terrible truth. In the base game, players know that Caelid has always been influenced by the previous battle between Radahn and Malenia. When this epic battle ended in a draw, Malenia unleashed Scarlett Rot on the area, becoming the phenomenon of all corruption in the player’s eyes. This not only made Caelid one of the most tough places to explore but also destroyed Radahn’s mind, turning him into a meaningless beast. But the story does not seem to end yet. It has been established that Miquella is not a so-called “good guy”. He is manipulative and has evil intentions. In order to fulfill his birthright as a god, he needs to meet the appropriate conditions, one of which is to make his half-brother Radahn his spouse. Not surprisingly, Radahn refused this plan, which triggered this long-standing conflict. Perhaps in the subsequent base game or DLC, the developers will have a clearer explanation of the details of this battle. The above is some interesting lore in Shadow of the Erdtree. If you have already explored the main content of the DLC, you might as well explore it carefully in Land of Shadows. You may find unexpected surprises! If you find something more interesting, welcome to iGMeet Discord and share it with many players!

Anvil Hammer is a new weapon added in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, and it is also a very powerful weapon. As a Colossal Weapon, its moves are relatively slow, but its excellent damage data and high AOE damage make up for this shortcoming. Before you use Anvil Hammer, you need to make sure you have enough skill points to invest in Strength. only then can the Anvil Hammer reach its full potential. If you haven’t figured out how to build the best build for it, follow the steps in this guide and build the best build for various situations you encounter step by step. Strengths And Disadvantages Overall, the biggest power of Anvil Hammer is that it can cause a lot of Stagger Damage, coupled with high Poise Damage, which allows you to break most bosses’ postures in a simple 2-3 normal attacks. It is worth mentioning that with Hammer category of weapons, whether you use a light swing, a heavy attack, or a charged attack, every swing can break the enemy’s posture. You can use this type of weapon to face some hard-to-lock bosses in the DLC, such as Curseblades or Fire Knights, who will faint on the ground after you hit them. Having talked about the advantages, now let’s talk about the disadvantages. In addition to being too heavy and only being able to perform slow moves, there are really no other disadvantages. But you can help reduce the impact of this weakness through subsequent stat allocation or matching Elden Ring Items. Stats Allocation As mentioned earlier, Strength and Faith are the two most important attributes of Anvil Hammer. However, in terms of priority, Strength is more important than Faith. Besides these two stats, you also need to invest a little in Intelligence and Dexterity, but these two stats will not affect the damage output of the weapon, so you can choose. The remaining stats should be used on Vigor to increase your health. Or you can choose to put it on Endurance to help you increase endurance and weight. In addition, investing 25 in Mind can get more value from this weapon’s skill Smithing Art Spears, because it only costs 18 FP. Once you’re over level 150, you can focus on Strength and get it to 80, Faith to 60, and Vigor to 60. If gear load-out becomes an issue, it’s also a good idea to prioritize Endurance until you find a better with your armor of choice. Best Talismans Using Anvil Hammer with both hands will trigger Two-Handed Sword Talisman, which will help you increase your damage by 15%. For Shard of Alexander, you can use Ash of War Smithing Art Spears to burst out critical hits. This will allow you to end the fight more easily and obtain Elden Ring Runes faster. Two-Headed Turtle Talisman is a quality-of-life addition that allows you to restore your stamina at a very amazing rate, which will help you in some long-term battles. The above are your must-haves, but you can also choose some amulets for special combat situations. For example, Crimson Seed Talisman +1 will increase the amount of healing you receive from Flasks by 30%, which can help you when Vigor exceeds 60. In addition, if you plan to use Anvil Hammer and some shields for guard counterattacks, then Curved Sword Talisman is definitely your best choice. Best Incantations First, since it is a Faith-based build, Golden Vow and Flame, Grant me Strength are the best choices, because they can directly enhance your damage output and resistance. In addition, I want to tell you that Anvil Hammer is one of the few weapons in the game that has fire damage, so after you use these Incantations to enhance it, your fire damage will be immeasurable. For other Incantations, you can choose Electrocharge, so that you can passively enhance the damage when you use Anvil Hammer with two hands. Or Pest-Thread Spears can also provide you with a can’t miss ranged option, which is an easy way to deal with some agile enemies. Best Seal In fact, the choice of Seal is closely related to the choice of Incantations. If you don’t want to keep switching, you can directly choose Clawmark Seal, because it is very useful for both Strength and Faith builds. Best Crystal Tears In Elden Ring DLC, Flask of Wondrous Physick is mainly used in some tough boss battles to increase your chances of winning the battle. With this in mind, you can choose these two Crystal Tears to help you complete the battle. When you use Deflecting Hardtear, your spontaneous defense in the hybrid physics will be significantly increased, and it will last for 5 minutes. When you choose Greenspill Crystal Tear, your stamina in the hybrid physics will be temporarily increased for 3 minutes. You can also use your usual Crystal Tears instead of Greenspill Crystal Tear, which will have a different effect, but the 15% increase in base stamina will leave you with a little stamina after you are hit, which you may be able to used to counterattack or even defeat the enemy directly. After reading this guide, have you opened your game and decided to change your build? Hopefully, you can use Anvil Hammer effectively in combat and explore Elden Ring DLC! If you encounter any problems during the build process, you are welcome to come to iGMeet Discord to ask for help from the gamers. I’m sure they will be very happy to help you, and you will also have a chance to get some Elden Ring Runes as a bonus!

Thiollier is a key NPC in Elden Ring, and he has an important questline that runs throughout Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Here, we’ll cover the entire Thiollier Questline and the many unique rewards that can be obtained along the way. Let’s get straight into it! Finding Thiollier The first thing we need to do is find Thiollier. From Gravesite Plain Sites of Grace, we’ll move northeast, across Ellac Greatbridge, and to Castle Front. We can then move southeast along the main path, which will eventually branch off into a side path that will take us to Pillar Path Cross. We can find Thiollier nearby. After speaking all of Thiollier’s dialogue, we’ll be able to obtain poison-related items from him. Obtaining Thiollier’s Concoction Next, we can head to Main Gate Cross, where we’re going to talk to another NPC, Moore. If we choose “Talk to Moore” option, he should give us Black Syrup Key Item. Then, on the way back to Thiollier, we can choose “Give Black Syrup”, then “Ask about Black Syrup”, and finally “I’m weary of life”. This will give us Thiollier’s Concoction. Of course, we can also get more of this consumable from Thiollier for 30,000 Elden Ring Runes each. However, I only know of one legitimate use for it. At some point during Dragon Communion Priestess Quest, before fighting Bayle, it is possible to give Thiollier’s Concoction to her in order to use her as Spirit Summons after defeating Bayle, instead of her Priestess Heart and Flowerstone Gavel weapon. Unfortunately, I haven’t tested this myself yet. Talking To Needle Knight Leda Anyway, to progress further on Thiollier’s quest, we need to approach Shadow Keep and talk to Thiollier. He should say that Miquella’s charm for him is gone, and that he is haunted by the memory of St. Trina. If we want, we can do something completely optional. We can go to Highroad Cross Site of Grace and talk to Needle Knight Leda. She will ask for our help in finding those who betrayed Miquella. We should be able to advise Thiollier, but we don’t actually have to. From my testing, doing so will not prevent us from completing Thiollier’s quest, but if we want to play it safe, we can just not make any suggestions or talk to her at all. Instead, to advance Thiollier’s quest line, all we have to do is rest twice at Site of Grace. After doing that, we can talk to Thiollier again and he will tell us that he is heading south. Get Southern Shore Map Next, we need to head south to Cerulean Coast, which is located in Southern Shore region. Let’s move on to how to get the corresponding map for the region. We will start at Castle Front Site of Grace and move southeast, this time along the east side of the main road. Behind a few Soldiers of Messmer, there is a series of steep but climbable descents that lead to Ellac River. Once down the hill, we can enter a cave system to the south, near an enormous pink Miranda Flower. We will then head southwest through the caves, free to explore along the way. We can pick up a Revered Spirit Ash before discovering Ellac River Cave Site of Grace. From there, we will continue south through the cave system. Note that there are several platforming sections here that need to be handled with caution to avoid death from fall damage. Another enormous threat is the lines of Gravebirds along the way. Despite the dangers, we should eventually reach Ellac River Downstream Site of Grace. From here, it’s a little further south to exit this cave. That being said, we still need to continue moving south, passing a few Lightning Sheep and a Furnace Golem. We can then turn west and walk through a forest to reach Cerulean Coast. We still need to continue moving south to find a map of this area. Be careful of Ghostflame Dragon here, though, which will swoop down near the center of the field. It’s much more powerful than the one found in Gravesite Plains. Not far from the dragon, we’ll find Southern Shore Map, and further ahead, one of Miquella’s Crosses, as well as Cerulean Coast Cross Site of Grace. Heading To Stone Coffin Fissure From here, we’ll continue moving south. Near the southern end of this area, we’ll find a large fissure with a series of drop-offs that will require careful climbing to reach the bottom and discover Site of Grace. Next, we’ll head south from Stone Coffin Fissure Site of Grace and head into the lower reaches of this area. There’s a loose rock here that will break off when we step on it, and we’ll somehow land safely on the ground below. Before descending further, we can move northwest from Fissure Cross and descend into a secluded area. Watch out for falling putrescent oozes. We can then move a short distance east to find Velvet Sword of St. Trina. We can then return to the last Grace and begin our descent in earnest. This time, we’ll head north, making our way from coffin to coffin. There are a few Gravebirds guarding the path here, as well as a nasty Lookout Stone enemy that periodically fires lasers with pinpoint accuracy. If you want to play it safe, just take your time through this section, dealing with Lookout Stones as you go. Eventually, we should reach Fissure Waypoint Site of Grace. From here, we’ll move northeast and jump onto a natural stone path. There’s a Shade form of a Lionel Misbegotten up ahead, so we might want to deal with Skeleton Warriors before moving on. Anyway, Lionel Misbegotten shade drops a Multilayered Ring of Light incantation when defeated, and from there it’s a short distance southeast to reach Fissure Depths Site of Grace. Defeat Putrescent Knight Boss Next, we’ll head southwest along Coffin and jump off the end to reach the boss chamber. Note that there’s a summon sign for Thiollier near where we land, so be prepared for a fight. Putrescent Knight Boss isn’t particularly powerful, but it’s also capable of dealing a lot of damage quickly. One of its blue flame moves is particularly dangerous, but can be avoided if timed correctly. After we’ve won, we’ll gain Remembrance of Putrescence, and Garden of Deep Purple Site of Grace will appear nearby. Main Quest Next, we can rest for a while at Site of Grace, then head west along the tunnel. We should find Thiollier talking to himself, and we can pick up St. Trina Disciple’s Cookbook [3] nearby. We’ll need to talk to Thiollier a few more times until he doesn’t have anything new to say. Next, we’ll need to return to Site of Grace and rest there a total of three times. Once we’ve done that, we can return to Thiollier, who will once again be talking to himself. We can talk to him again, but he won’t have much to say. For the next part, we will die a few times. We need to approach St. Trina and Imbibe Nectar, which will lead to our death. Then we need to repeat this step, Imbibe Nectar 4 times in total. After the fourth Imbibe Nectar, a new event should be triggered, and we can then be resurrected at Site of Grace. We can then go and talk to Thiollier once more and convey the words of St. Trina. He will tell us to stop, but despite this, we should try to do it again. After talking to Thiollier until his dialogue runs out, we can return to Site of Grace and rest there. Trying to return to St. Trina will trigger another battle, which is fairly easy. After we win, we will obtain St. Trina’s Smile Talisman, which increases attack power when sleep is triggered nearby. If we return to the cave and talk to Thiollier, he will ask us a question, but we can’t answer it yet. Instead, we need to Imbibe Nectar 2 more times from St. Trina, or until she has nothing new to say. Then we can return to Thiollier and deliver St. Trina’s last words, talking to him until there is no new dialogue. If we go to Site of Grace to rest and return to Thiollier, he will not do much except sighing when talking to him. The last steps of Thiollier Questline take place at the same time as the last part of the major story of DLC. We need to reach a place called Enir-Ilim. Reaching this location requires defeating the ultimate boss in Shadow Keep, as well as the last boss in Ancient Ruins of Rauh area. After that, burn Sealing Tree in Church of the Bud, which will bring us to Enir-Ilim. Given that the end of this questline is completed after defeating the last boss of DLC, which is extremely difficult, I recommend exploring Shadow Realm and collecting as many Scadutree Fragments and Revered Spirit Ashes as possible before continuing. Summon Thiollier For Final Boss Fight If you have completed all the steps in this guide, you should be able to summon Thiollier to assist you in the next boss fight. This is the second to last boss fight, and there are many rewards for completing it. Heading to Divine Gate Front Staircase, and following the stairs up, we will find a summoning sign for Thiollier, as well as a summoning sign for Ansbach, assuming we have not betrayed him at any point. I am not sure if summoning Thiollier is necessary to complete his quest, but I did summon him for the fight. If you want to take the risk and not summon him for the fight to see if you can still complete the quest, then that is your choice. As mentioned before, the ultimate boss is very difficult. For myself, I am level 225, using Heavy Armor and Fingerprint Shield to block his worst attacks, as well as top-level Talismans, focusing on improving my defense, stamina regen, and casting speed. Even so, it took me a few hours to finally defeat both Promised Consort Radahn and Radahn Consort of Miquella. If anyone has found a strategy that works particularly well against Radahn, I’m sure many others would be very grateful to you for sharing it. Rewards Anyway, once the last boss is defeated, we can move on to touching the memories left behind. We can find Thiollier’s body near the entrance to the arena and pick up Thiollier’s Hidden Needle Weapon and his Armor set. Finally, we can return to St. Trina near Garden of Deep Purple and pick up Legendary St. Trina’s Blossom Head Armor, which will slightly increase your max FP. It also emits a faint glow, so that’s great. That’s it for my complete guide for this Thiollier Questline. Have a great day!
