Elden Ring: Best Rune farm locations in Shadow of the Erdtree
As a reminder, while farming for Runes, it’s best to increase your Rune acquisition with items such as theGolden Scarab Talisman(Rune acquisition +20%) or theGold-Pickled Fowl Foot(+30% Runes for three minutes). This way, you can get the most bang for your buck. Here are the best spots to farm Runes in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree. Also, make sure to getall the Scadutree Fragmentsas those are your main way of being prepared for bosses.
The Sunken Chapel
The number one rune-farming spot that has been discovered in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC has to be theSunken Chapel. Once you discover this Site of Grace at Shadow Keep, head to the church just nearby it and you should be able to find a ton ofglowing-red creaturesstumbling around.
This area will supply you with an infinite amount of weak creatures that provide you with around1,800-2,000 Runes each. Just make sure not to defeat the red mage in the same area providing you with this farming method, killing the mage will stop them from spawning infinitely.
The cool thing about this method is that these creatures will also explode themselves, making it easy for you totake a swing and then wait for them to explode, killing other nearby creatures in the process. You should be able to collect a plethora of Runes in no time.
Shadow Keep Storehouse
Another good spot that I found while doing some research was in the same general area in Shadow Keep, but this time by theStorehouse, First Floor Site of Grace. You’ll find a ton of ghostly enemies and Vulgar Militiamen hanging around.
While the spirits drop around1,500 Runeseach, the tiny Vulgar Militiamen will grant you nearly3,000 Runeseach, granting you a good chunk of Runes without having to put in much effort. You can then teleport back to the Site of Grace to grab even more Runes from these weaker enemies.
Rauh Ancient Ruins
One other great Rune farming spot discovered in thisReddit posttakes place near theRauh Ancient Ruins, East Site of Grace. Following the tutorial video in the post, you’re able to earn around 50,000 Runes per minute.
This method involves you teleporting to this Site of Grace to reset the people spawning on the large bridge. Then you wait for theFurance Golemto appear and release an attackon the bridge people while hiding behind a pillar for safety. It will instantly decimate the majority of enemies on the bridge, granting you a slew of Runes to collect.
That’s it for now, those areall the best Rune farming locationsin the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Speaking of locations, we also know aboutall Sealed Spiritspring locations.
