Shadow Of The Erdtree is a huge DLC, as it introduces at least a dozen dungeons, catacombs, and hidden areas for players to explore. Taylew’s Ruined Forge is one of them.
Taylew’s Ruined Forge is one of the smaller dungeons in Shadow Of The Erdtree, but it’s a very important area if you want to get the three exceptional new throwing weapons: Smithscript Axe, Hammer, and Shield.
Not only can you dig up Golem Spirit Ash in this area, but you can also pick up a vast array of Smithing Stones and more Elden Ring Runes. Taylew’s Ruined Forge is located in Ancient Ruins of Rauh, and is a must-visit for Tarnished players to collect the three new weapons released in this DLC.
Find Taylew’s Ruined Forge In Elden Ring DLC
Taylew’s Ruined Forge is just north of Ancient Ruins Base Site of Grace, in the northwest of the map. It is not difficult to find. Then we need to summon Torrent, and then walk along the road, and you will see a marble brazier with a fire inside.
Then you have to look carefully. If you see a small door, then congratulations, you have found the entrance to Ruined Forge. Open this door and you can see Taylew’s Ruined Forge Site of Grace.
This door is very inconspicuous. Many people just glanced at it and walked past it, and missed this entrance.
If you want to reach Ancient Ruins Base Site of Grace, we should walk along Moorth Ruins to its north. At this time, we see a pond, and then we find Statue of Marika on the edge of the pond. Behind the sculpture, we can see a very hidden path.
Taylew’s Ruined Forge Guide
Taylew’s ruined forge is in Shadow Of The Erdtree. Starting from Taylew’s Ruined Forge Site of Grace, we walk down the tunnel and see a balcony overlooking a lake of lava.
There is a body next to the railing. We can pick up Shadow Realm Rune by the body. We need to go up the stairs on the left to deal with Lava Slime that falls from the ceiling, and then we must choose the ladder to climb down.
Smithscript Axe
Smithscript Axe is in a very hidden place, it is located in Elden Ring Shadow Of The Erdtree. Going around the gap in the floor, we will enter the room on the left. As soon as we enter the door, we will see a Golem Smith ambushing you on the right side of the room.
But don’t worry, because it is very slow and will not chase you, so it is almost harmless. You just need to pick up Smithscript Axe behind him and return along the way you came.
After returning to the lava room, you can see a large metal pipe. We can walk on it and jump to a safe place by running. When we see a stone balcony that feels shaky, we can find Smithscript Greathammer hidden by Lava Slime, and then go back to the pipe.
Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone
We need to go up along the pipe to find Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone, and then we can see two balconies. The two balconies are located on the left and right sides.
We have to go to the balcony on the left first, and then pick up Smithing Stone next to the corpse. There is a room behind the other Golem Smiths. Go in and you can see Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone on the corpse next to the pipe. Pick it up and go back to the pipe.
Two Golem Smiths here will prevent you from taking Smithing Stone. It is recommended that you choose to ignore them because they are difficult to be knocked down, unless you have heavy weapons with high poise damage. Use this weapon to stab the red gem on their backs, so that they will be damaged.
Then we have to go to the balcony on the right, which is connected to the pipe, and then we have to go through a tunnel to enter Ruined Forge and see a room. Open the room and we can see two more Golem Smiths and a Lava Slime.
We climb up along the dilapidated pillar and can see the Smithscript Shield next to the corpse. Pick up Smithscript Shield and turn around to see a balcony. After we jump over, we can see a platform which can reach the ground.
Taylew’s Ruined Forge Ladder
We just need to turn right to see Smithing Stone next to the corpse. Don’t rush to leave after taking it. There is a tunnel behind the corpse. Go along the tunnel and you can see a ladder. Climb up the ladder and we can see another Smithing Stone.
Then we come to the stairs in front of the ladder, climb up the stairs to a room, pull the lever on the left side of the room, which can change the direction of the metal pipe.
From this room, we can see a metal platform below. We jump down, then jump to the floor, and walk down the stairs in the room to get Somber Smithing Stone.
There is a big hole in the wall of the room, and we can see part of the metal pipe from the hole. We have to jump up and run up along the pipe until we see balconies on both sides, then we jump to the left and go down the stairs, and we can see the altar. Interact with the altar, and we can get Golem Smith Spirit Ash and last piece of Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone.
In this way, our task is completed. This task is not difficult, but it is easy to miss some stones. We can check it before completing the task and be careful not to forget it.
