It is vital to upgrade your weapons and gears in Elden Ring. Smithing Stones will help you accomplish such things, but they are not easy to obtain. Here’s everything you need to know.
Smithing Stones Location in Elden Ring
In general, the best way to acquire Smithing Stones that will imbue magical damage into your mace or add infinite lifesteal to your blades is to buy them from NPCs. However, before buying the stones, you will need to complete several tasks.
First, you need to acquire a thing called Smithing Stone Miner’s Bell Bearing. Bell Bearings are divided into four categories, and every level of Smithing Stone Miner’s Bell Bearing corresponds to a different set of Smithing Stones.
| Smithing-Stone Miner’s Bell Bearing [1] | Smithing stones [1] and [2] | Go to the Raya Lucaria Crystal Cave in Liurnia and after you defeat the Crystalian boss inside you will obtain level 1 Bell Bearing |
| Smithing-Stone Miner’s Bell Bearing [2] | Smithing stones [3] and [4] | You’ll find this bell bearing inside the Sealed Tunnel to the southwest of Leyndell, Royal Capital in the Altus Plateau. A chest will reveal to you the level 2 bell |
| Smithing-Stone Miner’s Bell Bearing [3] | Smithing stones [5] and [6] | This Bell Bearing is found in the Zamor Ruins in the Mountaintop of Giants. Another chest will get you the level 3 bell. |
| Smithing-Stone Miner’s Bell Bearing [4] | Smithing stones [7] and [8] | You can find this Bell Bearing inside Crumbling Farum Azula in the Mountaintop of Giants |
Once you get the first-tier Smithing Miner’s Bell Bearing, take it to creepy Twin Maiden Husks at the Roundtable Hog. The two will start selling you the first two grades of Smithing Stones, but as you obtain other Bell Bearing tiers, the Twin Maiden Husks can be turned into your personal distributor.
Later in the game, as you slash through enemies you will find Smithing Master Iji, the War Counselor, who will sell you Smithing Stones at tier four in an infinite amount.
