Caelid is one of the hardest areas in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Elden Ring. B♒ecause it's connected to the beginning portion of the map, many new players will accidentally stumble upon this Hell in the Lands Between. In♋ truth, players should begin exploring Caelid a little after getting into Liurnia of The Lakes.
These scarlet rot-infested lands have dangerous and tough enemies at every corner. Completing Caelid🍸 is not necessary for finishing the story. Everything inside is optional but worth your while as you can get many strong weapons and ဣa great number of runes.
How To Enter Caelid
There are two ways to enter Caelid. Neither option are entirelꦬy safe, as Caelid is a deathtrap, but one is easier than🐭 the other, depending on your skill level and preference.
Smoldering Church
Entering from the Smoldering Church means casually strolling into Caelid on foot from Limgrave. You can simply walk into Caelid from Limgrave from the Summonwater Village. The catch is that entering this way triggers an NPC invasion once you leave the threshold of Limgrave and enter Caelid. This invasion can be very tough if you're not prepared and well-leveled. You cannot escape the invasion once it starts, so you either beat the NPC or die and start again. The good thing is that the Smoldering Church Site of Grace is right there, so you can grab it and respawn there i🔥f necessary.
Bestial Sanctum
The other way to get into Caelid is by using a waygate portal. This portal can be found after speaking to the NPC known as D. He is found in Summonwater Village after defeating the Tibia Mariner. If you've missed him, he should be found at Roundtable Hold anyhow. Exhausting his dialogue leads you to find the Bestial Sanctum, which he shares is accessible through a portal near the Third Church of Marika. This portal is hidden in t🍒he corner of the small stream, behind many bushes.
You'll be teleported to the Bestial Sanctum, where there will be a Site of Grace and a menacing NPC you dare not anger. Just outside the sanctum is a mini-boss an🐷d various tough enemies onwards. From the Bestial Sanctum, you'd want to make a run for every next Grace and get to the location you desire while ignoring the tough enemies.
Map Fragment Locations
The first map fragment can be found near Dragonbarrow West Site of Grace. From the Bestial Sanctum, you must go down the road to your right. From Smoldering Church, you must head from Rotview Balcony to Caelum Ruins and th🔜en 🍬continue East. Use Torrent to jump onto the other side of the rocks where you'll reach Dragonbarrow West Grace.
The second fragment is in South Caelid. It's just below the scarlet rot Swamp of Aeonia, near a merchant. From the Smoldering Church, you want to just keep heading down the road South. From Bestial Sanctum, you can use Torrent to jump across the ravine North-West of Dragonbarrow West Site of Grace, then follow 𝄹the general road South.
Points Of Interest
Swamp of Aeonia
This swamp contains a lot of crucial items and enemies. To the North-West is Street of Sages Ruin, where players 168澳洲ꦏ幸运5开奖网:can find a strong S-scaling staff for mages, as well as a gravity spell. You can also find a boss fight here for Commander O'Neil, who will prove trouble due to his many summons. Just east of the swamp is Sellia, Town of Sorcery. This is a key area where you can find spells, a boss, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:and continue Sellen's questline. South of Sellia can b🐲e found Gowry's Shack, where another quest can be starteꦯd regarding Millicent.
Dragonborrow
Dragonbarrow is a very important location for rune farming. This area is, as you guessed it, riddled with dragons. Many minor dragons can be found walking about, ready for a fight. There is one ginormous, sleeping mother dragon near Fort Faroth. This dragon does not wake up, ever. You can farm this sleeping dragon for a hefty amount of runes, granted its babies don't come for you first. Fort Faroth, just behind the mother dragon Greyoll, is important. Atop the fort is the right side of the Dectus Medallion, which allows you to enter the Atlu🌠s Plateau using the Grand Lift of Dectus.
Redmane Castle
This castle will harbor an optional shardbearer. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Starscourge Radahn 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:can be fought here, but only after events are triggered. Until then, the castle will be full of other enemies and a different set of bosses, the Crucible Knight and Misbegotten Warrior. Redmane Castle will be full of important items like whetblades and weapons. If the festival is triggered and you haven't defeated the Crucible Knight and Misbegotten Warrior, they will return to the castle naturally once Radahn is defeated. Defeating Radahn will continue questlines for Ranni, Blaidd, and Alexander Iron Fist.
The Great Jar
You may have been able to see a giant jar NPC in front of a building on your travels through Caelid. While this looks like a long and interesting quest or dungeon, it's fairly simple and short. You can only reach this jar by using an elevator inside Siofra River. If you've already visited Siofra River, all you have to do is activate the elevator very North-East of the river map next to the Below The Well Site of Grace. Then you'll be transported to the previously unreachable ravine the Great Jar is located in. The jar is guarded by two golem archers and requires you to defeat three NPC invasions one by one. Upon completion, you'll get the Great-Jar's Arsenal Talisman.
Bestial Sanctum
The Bestial Sanctum holds a very crucial NPC. Each time you defeat a Tibia Mariner or 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:hap⛦pen to꧅ loot a Deathroot somewhere else, Gurranq the beastman will gladly feast upon the plant and reward you with multiple useful items and powers each time. You can receive incantations, weapons, and more by feeding him Deathroot.
Divine Tower of Caelid
Once Radahn is defeated, you can bring his Great Rune to the divine tower just North-East of the Dragonbarrow West Site of Grace. The tower is difficult to get into. You must parkour off some roots and onto the outer ledges of the tower until you reach an opening to go inside. Once inside, there will be a Grace. Turning right from the Grace leads to a door that can be hard to see, which leads to the two fingers that activate Radahn's rune. To the left of the Grace is the start of the difficult Divine Tower of Caelid dungeon.
These are all of the larger, important areas in Caelid that contain most of what you'll be after whether it be completing questlines or when searching for powerful loot. Riddled around Caelid are many dungeons and more optional bosses for you to discover if you are ꩵa completionist. Below are listed all notable field bosses, loot, du🦋ngeons, and NPCs within Caelid.
