Elden Ring Guide: Forge of Giants, how to find and kill the Fire Giant

We continue with the journey step by step. The time has come to look for the Forge of the Giants, where we will face the fearsome Fire Giant

Right after finishing off Morgott, King of Omens in Leyndell , Melina gave us Rold’s Medallion . This object works as a key to access the snowy region and search for the Forge of the Giants, a key place for the development of history. The path is somewhat confusing, but in this part of our complete guide we guide you so that you have no problem reaching the Fire Giant’s hideout. We also tell you the best tricks to defeat him .

Heading to the Forbidden Land

The path that you must take is part of La Gracia “Mirador de la Avenida”, by Leyndell . As soon as you get to that huge street where there is a giant demon, turn left and open the gate at the end. You will see snow on the ground, a lake to the right, and a huge staircase to the left that you must climb up until you reach an elevator . You will be on a bridge; go through it and in the circular building, go down the elevator to officially be in the Forbidden Lands. Follow the only possible path, being careful not to fall when you have to jump and also with some enemies that are hiding in the fog, and a few meters later enter the Great Rold Elevator. Although before entering a tough enemy will appear…

Boss | Black Blade Faithful

You should think of Faithful like any other gargoyle, albeit more powerful and with more health. The best advice we can give you is to stick to her legs and attack her right there , because it’s a good way to avoid some of her hits. When I lift one leg, roll to avoid the stomp. At some point she will rise up and try to fall on you. You can block him, but if you think you can avoid the impact by rolling you will have another opportunity to attack him.

After finishing Faithful you will see a huge building: it is Rold’s Great Elevator (activate the Grace on the right as soon as you enter). Here you can use the medallion to head towards the Giants Peaks, a new area where first things first: activate the Grace and go down the gorge a few meters to see a pillar where you can pick up the map of the area . And just a few meters further on, a Grace next to the left cliff.

Ahead you will see some ruins (watch out for those tall skinny enemies they are very dangerous) which you have to cross then turn right and find a grotto through the mountains. See that giant bridge that looks like it’s about to collapse? Well, you must cross it carefully, because at the bottom there is a giant archer who can easily kill you with his arrows. We recommend moving forward on foot and rolling forward just when you see the arrow coming.

A little further on you will be able to activate a Grace and continue in a straight line until you see a frozen river; walk on it to the right and look for a small hill that goes up to another Grace. Next to you is a huge frozen lake that will soon begin to be consumed by a dense fog. Be very careful because a dangerous ice dragon will appear that you are not interested in fighting now. In order not to end up disoriented, always stick to the right side of the mountain and run around the lake until you can climb a ramp.

Look around you and locate a stream that is used to make a huge jump with the horse. Once up, contemplate the castle in front of you. The surroundings are full of enemies, so you decide if you stay to fight or continue advancing. In either case, your target is the bridge (or chain) to the left of the castle next to a Grace . You will be at Flame Peak.

As you cross you will see that the area seems huge, but there really is almost nothing to do here. You just have to move forward a bit as you go up and you start to catch a glimpse of the Forge of the Giants. Of course, on the way there are some very dangerous enemies; We recommend you cross the area on horseback in case you don’t want to stop to fight. Soon you will see a double chain bridge and they both lead to the final boss. Take advantage of the fact that in the one on the right there is a Grace that you may need more than once. Hopefully not the case…

Final Boss | fire giant

  • How to defeat the Fire Giant

After killing him, you can finally enter the Forge of Giants. And by entering we mean climbing to the top and going around the structure being careful not to fall, since there is nothing below but certain death. At the other end there is a Grace in which Melina will appear, she accepts her proposal and you will automatically travel to a new and spectacular setting . We continue with the guide in the Maliketh, the Black Blade chapter .
