POISON METHOD PATCHED. UPDATED KNIGHT's CAVALRY CHEESE HERE: ruclips.net/video/xvD_m47i_Ts/видео.html FLAME OF REDMANES PATCHED - You'll need to use a different area of effect spell, or fight them individually as shown in the end of the video. - It has come to my attention that I am a dummy. I have been pronouncing runes as "roo-ins" instead of "roons" for a very long time without even thinking twice. My sincere apologies for having to listen to that! Not sure why, but roo-ins feels much more natural to say for me.
@@Crusader-777 smithing stone 7 brings you up to level 21 weapon. But if you want to find more search for "elden ring interactive map" and click on the map genie one. Then search for smithing stone. It will show you all the available ones found in the world. The best way is to get the smithing stone bell bearings though, which are typically earned by defeating powerful foes or found in dangerous locations. This allows you to purchase smithing stones from the twin maiden husks in the roundtable hold. The more bell bearings you find, the higher smithing stones you can purchase.
@@Crusader-777 yeah. This game is crazy, complicated and extremely vague.... but the gameplay makes up for it. And kind of refreshing to have so much intrigue, mystery and lack of handholding in today's landscape of games.
@@TobyWanShinobi LOL yea I just sprint down along the left side to where I kno exactly where the ball spawns then as soon as I see the light from the ball spawning I make a quick right turn and run by it as it falls off the cliff. Never been hit while doing that on Torrent
Thanks great guide! Probably a better farm for mid game or around lvl 80-100... For me at lvl 40, the first 3 guards is enough lol. Its a good practice. They hit hard
"Lime Grave" & "Ruine's" - I like it ! I love how other culture's use language , not as a barrier, but as a joyful & inspired deficiency, not as a wall of ignorance, but as a way to share life, its mysteries & that intelligence & words matter not as a Tarnished. It's s the actions that matter, not how things are spelled or spoken. Absolutely brilliant !
@@TobyWanShinobi 😂 words shmerds Only pronounce correctly when reading or writing essays for some class or college this is a game don't stress bro I guarantee you he fucked up real life words too everyone does.
You bet! Best of luck fellow tarnished! Remember to use flame of the redmanes when you are having trouble on bosses, etc. It is an amazing ability that will break their stance in just 2 hits.
This guide is 100% well done. It has the maps and locations mentioned and shows the methods of farming provided step by step, locations of enemies, and tips as well. Absolutely splendid. Thank you so much.
thank you for this! most other farming guides either weren't worth the risk vs reward or were lower risk but didn't yield many souls. this one is perfect and i was able to level up to where i wanted to be plus upgrade all the weapons i wanted to upgrade. thank you so much!
So…I tried to kill the knight the way the video said. But since the poison takes awhile and he kept going back down to the bridge I just climbed up on a branch next to the end of it and waited until my poison was up to go another round. He tried to follow me up the branch, and ended up falling off the BRIDGE, so I guess one way of doing it if you are impatient is to make him kill himself. 🤷♂️
Yeah, they hit hard! So it's high risk, high reward. If you master the run shown for low lvl players at the very end of the video, you should be good to go. Then use those runes to level up higher and you'll be doing the full run very soon.
Just a heads up. The Calvary will not chase you up the hill past the big root so you can poison it but not kill it with the traps. My guess is they updated to prevent the cheese
Hello all, while it’s still a viable rune farming (without jumping out of the map yielding 472947397384936 runes every hour /s) location, the nerfs to flame of the redmanes make the guardians a bit harder to kill. The dmg is no longer as strong as in the video while it casts slower as well. The guardians also move faster than you and they tend to move sideways more often.. makes it easier from them to hit you.
Yeah it’s a great video. Got the fire thing from the invisible beetle, but at only level 30 and without the other little perks I’m still too weak to farm it. The guys on the hill destroy me. But I’ll be back. I still can’t beat Margit the fell. I don’t think I’m very good at this game yet, but still grinding.
And don't beat yourself up about it - this is a very HARD game. You should definitely explore a good amount of the world and then come back to Margit when you are nice and leveled up. He is crazy hard for a first boss.
The bird is best 👌 its easy af especially if you go grab a gold foul foot hit the momma dragon, get that 126k to level up quick from that and then go do bird after farming the gold foul foot and spend an hour. Im lvl like 100 now as of today from famring for maybe 15 minutes i did 2 runs with 5 feet and they last about 3 minutes per. And started at 45 from the dragon (look that up if you dont kmow what im talkkng about). Its a non glitch
For any mages trying this: Glintstone arc works well if you follow a few rules: 1: Contrary to your intuition, stay close to your target. Roughly just out of arms length. 2: When they retreat, press your advantage and keep walking forward while you spam. When they attack, step back until you stagger them then press forward on them again. Match lateral movement. If they swerve right, follow, etc. 3: Don't get TOO close. If you get close enough to hug them, they can use a much faster attack that will beat out your cast speed. 4: ALWAYS keep the closest one targeted and back-dodge the moment one of them gets to your side. Keeping them in front of you is crucial. Hope this helps any mages struggling out there!
LOL. Just a warning, this is now pretty heavily nerfed because flame of redmanes no longer staggers with 2 shots. I would suggest using a weapon like the bloodhound fang, which I have a video guide on.
I always farmed them vulgar militia outside the bestiary and by the bridge. They’re spread out for the most part so you can face them one on one. They pause at the end of their routes for easy opportunities to back stab. A critical even at low levels can do half damage and they’re slow to begin attacking after the get up making it easy to kind of stun lock them with consecutive hits until they die. And they’re worth 1094 per kill. It may not be as efficient as either of the above methods, but it gets you used to back stabs and stealth, that’s for sure. It also seems a bit safer because all your engagements should be 1v1, with little chance of getting swarmed.
Nah I am not fighting those guys after the bleed crap they did to me doesn't matter what level you are you take half health damage from the bleed status
That's my favorite place to farm for Runes To, the sword dance Asha war is really good for the area and knocks them on their ass and if done right can kill them in two hits.
This is what i did, i found and just kept using it. Could rack up 14k per min if you plan your route without getting off your horse too. Just beat the game today, did not feel hard. Maybe the farming i did helped lol. It just felt good getting easy runes so i would just do it while i waited for something irl, say like my wife getting ready lol instead of waiting 20 mins sitting around i would just farm.
Thanks man! I heard about the bird farming but then found out there's a bunch of other things I need to do first. I just been grinding near the Beast master guy near the dragon bridge, fighting those little guys with the sickles for 1000 per kill.
That's exactly what I prefer to farm. Can rip through 20 of them in about 4 to 5 minutes and then rinse repeat. They're easy as hell to kill unless they are grouped up or they get a couple lucky shots off. Sometimes they'll even kill you with one quick combo if you let them, but usually I slay them without much difficulty.
@@RonnieMyers777 I have no idea how to get to the birds. You're talking about that area where they shoot a bird across this wide gap and the bird runs off the cliff to it's death? If so, can you maybe let me know how to get there? I guess I could just google it lol.. just don't know what it's called.
@@32rekt62 IIRC go to Rose Church (Liurnia Lakes) and there's a guy in a mask hiding around there who gives you "fingers" to duel ppl. Do 3 fights (win or lose) and go back to him, then the item he gives teleports you to the area. You'll be right next to a site of grace where the bird is. Its like 13k or 17k with gold fowl foot
@@robertkindel9676 true, but also less risk due to the fights being 1v1 because how spread out they are. No FP required, but you can use it if you want.
Here’s one that I used in the beginning. 1. Ride as fast as you can to the “impassable bridge” grace site. (Lower Calid, SE) and rest. 2. Mount your horse and ride over the fire wall into the camp and BACK OUT again. (This activates a battle between devil dogs and guards.) 3. Stay at the back of the tower at the site of grace and collect 3-4000 runes. 4. After the battle dies down, rest at the site of grace and Repeat. You don’t have to kill anything and you should take almost no damage. Beware of the archers on the front of the tower.
I found myself collecting runes over there , I saw the war poppinn off and had no idea why I was collecting runes as I passed by , easiest robbing ever. This also happened between the ape people and the limgrave soldiers over near the wolf pack with the white wolf sitting on top of the long rock pointing upwards out of the ground .
hell, I call in a summon and join the war, taking neither side and leaving absolutely no survivors. remember to go up the hill on the far side a little bit to trigger the white dog that will howl for his friends to follow, then lead them back to the battle and it's pure chaos. LOVE IT!
This is how I leveled up. It's the best, if you are working from home. Run close enough to activate. Go back and chill for a while. Rinse and repeat, do other stuff. Make some eggs, have a coke.
@@pg9193 you can also add in the bird that is sitting more or less in front of the white dog and the poor horseman, which usually is the first one to fall xD Love that farming spot
It got patched... which l did my best to try to let people know via cards in the video and a pinned comment at the top of the comments. Here is the updated cheese, which is actually much easier: ruclips.net/video/xvD_m47i_Ts/видео.html
Excellent vid!! On a side note, I had fun pitting the dogs and crows against the soldiers by the site of grace close to where the Flame of Redmanes ash of ruin is. Neither enemy can catch torrent and they agro each other
Personal opinion honestly not much in this video has any correlation between each other I followed the guide and the only good thing really good was the hook “42,000 runes”. The redmanes is good don’t get me wrong but how do you expect ppl who are farming for runes to already have that much arcane this early on. no shade or anything just didn’t find it worth while although there is a farm outside the impassable bridge that’ll be more than worth your while. Just watch the soldiers outside the post fight the giant / monstrous dogs and it can be an easy 3-7k runes per run alongside with the fact that the soldiers drop Radahn gear.
Thanks for the video, the Impassable Bridge in Caelid is also a great farm place. Just gallop through the enemies and they'll kill themselves in around 5 minutes giving you 6 to 8 k runes. Make sure to bring in all the dogs up the path.
Did they fix how to kill the black riding horse early game with trap even after the black riding horses guy eat all the trap his hp is still only halfed
@TobyWanShinobi Farming only has one purpose regardless of whether it's boring or not. Also, having to get a weapon to +14 to use the ash of war is a quest within itself. Dont get me wrong, your edit and video is exceptional, but trying to sell this farm to be on par with bird farm is a stretch.
If you have none of the fancy stuff that TobyWan has, just get yourselves the Bloodhound's Fang, get enough stats to be able to wield it with both hands, get enough runes from the ball method to buy Somber Smithing Stones up to 4 from Iji the blacksmith in Liurnia and upgrade the Bloodhound's Fang to +4. Now go back to where the fast farm is. Use the weapon skill, Bloodhound's Finesse, it will hit at least a couple of them, after that your guy will jump backwards, press R2, he'll disappear and do another attack. This will likely kill the group or make them very weak. Just rinse and repeat, you'll get the distance for the perfect attack quick and farm these guys in no time without the need for magic and lots of items. Until you get the timing, stick to the first group near the grace only. After killing them, quick travel to the grace because it's faster.
@@BrokenWar46 As you get stronger and improves the Fang it becomes sort of trivial and it's better to also farm the upper floor. Right now with the claw talisman, I'm one hitting them with the jump R2 attack. I start by killing the first buried one while locked on the first guy next to a tree, then immediately jump attack the tree guy, turn to the right and the other buried one is still coming out of the floor. I two hit him with two R1 attacks. Then I lock on the guy on top of a stone to the right and jump attack, kill the one coming out of the floor left of it. Then there's one right above coming out of the floor, jump attack. Now there's a group of three coming out of the floor, I jump attack the left one and Finesse the other two to the right, most times I get both of 'em because they stick together. Then run up, there are two buried. Jump attack the one on the right, two R1's on the left on the left. Go behind the big pot, jump attack the buried one and R1 twice the one in front of it. Look down and there are two on a ledge sitting down and on down of them. Jump attack the closest one, stay on top of the ledge, the other two stay down but they come up jumping and have a long animation of doing nothing after that. Dispose of them with R1 as they jump up. Get on torrent go upstairs, exit torrent. Jump attacks on any that are on the ground and R1 or jump R1 followed by R1 on any that are above ground or manage to come out before being killed. If any group of two manages to stay close together, Finesse them for a quick kill. There are also two easy ones just sitting around next to the hill. And that's it. With the scarab I get around 22k per run, teleport back to the grace. You can get level 100 within a couple hours of these guys and they're great to farm if you just need quick runes to upgrade a weapon or buy stuff from merchants. Also, don't bother looting them after getting their full set for your collection, they drop nothing of importance. Other thing, use your heals liberally just in case you make some weird mistake and gets swarmed. Most of these little groups give you back estus after you dispose of them, so you basically have infinite heals. There are better farm spots after that, like the albinaurics on the way to Mohg, but this one is the safest one with good speed that can be accessed early in the game and will serve you well up to levels 110-120 with an investment of 5-10 hours depending on how fast you can do the route. I also feel that you can do this route with almost any set up because you can jump attack these things easily since they have plenty of horizontal sideways attacks and are easily staggered. And lastly, Godrick's great rune is a good thing to activate here after you've managed to do the route without dying. The added damage will make you 1-2 shot them faster and the extra vigor and fp are not bad either.

Just killed the black knight today. It wasn't patched. As stated you have to keep him close and dont sprint unless you have to. He will respawn in the middle of the bridge. But if you get him to the top of the hill he will die quickly for 40k runes.
Checkout all the comments about this. Not patched. If you are experiencing him teleporting away then you aren't staying close enough to him, or you aren't bringing him all the way to the top of the hill. You won't see any poison damage happen to him, he will just immediately die.

Out of dozens of ruin videos; this was the most honest and correct way to farm efficiently that didn't require cheating. (Jumping off oblivion for ruins) This is exactly what I was looking for to farm. I subscribed. Thanks bro from a fellow RUclipsr 🤙
I like Caelid Ruins also...nets an average 5k or 6k per run through. The enemies are easy; small ones give 25, tall ones are 81, and the three "battle tanks" give over 1600. For low level players, I would avoid the tanks. But the enemies don't slap at you or anything like that, instead they chase you and blow themselves up after a short jog. Edit: I've even gotten as much as 13k with the occasional 9k boost.
I like the impassible greatbridge for a similar amount. - between 6 & 9k a run, lots of redmane gear, and if the doggos & birbs scare you, lead them to the soldiers and let them do the killing for you. (Gets TONS faster at ~25 int with the glintstone arc) My favorite "I hate re-starting" run is from the 1st Caelid waypoint, grab a dog or two on the way to the ruins (it's an extra 1K if the doggos die to the exploding fire skeletons, and if they don't they go home pretty early). Now run from the ruins to where the invisible scarab gave you redmane's stomp & lead the doggos there into the soldiers (the soldiers distract the doggos, the doggos distract the soldiers, and you carefully murder all of them). Next you stroll (VERY RAPIDLY) past the shrimp-man pest thread things on the way to the ruined greatbridge - repeating the "doggos and soldiers fight, *I* win" recipe. Total between 12 & 30K per run, 3-5 minutes if you are just running for the rest points, 20 or so minutes if you can make the run without getting distracted (It can be REALLY slow if you get hung up on fighting the crows) Discovered the run entirely by accident - trying to rush for the blessed dew talisman, but went to the wrong tower (no teleporter to scary boss here)
The flame thrower tanks are pretty easy to kill if you sneak up on them for a backstab, though I don't understand how our characters aren't allowed to pull the pilots out lmao
@@TobyWanShinobi it took me some time soo apparently after patch u need to stall longer n go back n forth more n hug more left is what I heard from other video n after a few attempts it worked
Yeah, that is true. Just a different farm that doesn't require beating any bosses, having any quest progress, and won't get patched. Not saying it's the most efficient, but I find it a lot more fun. I personally don't like doing farms where I feel like I'm not actually "playing the game." But that's just a weird personal thing for me. I like to feel like I've earned it a bit.
@@amonteanderson9326 There is a bird in an area that is supposed to be a late game area (need to beat Godrick and do a fairly involved quest that probably isn't designed for new/mid game players). once you get there, you can stand on one side of a canyon, shoot at a large bird with an arrow and it runs towards you and falls of an edge, giving you 11,000 souls. There is a site of grace right next to it that you can rest at and reset the encounter again, over and over. It will probably be patched in someway, as this isn't really in-line with the way the devs want people to play the game. Most gamers do what is optimal, so I understand the desire to do it.
Man, that is a helpfull thing. I doesn`t farm normaly, but i`m a melee and need some stats for a sword and a bit magic. Up this hill is a perfect location. Thank you!
Does the 42000 bonus for the knight still work? I tried this several times today, but he'd only follow me part way then turn back before taking any damage. Is there a trick to keep him following?

I farm the four little dudes west of the Farum Greatbridge site of grace, south of the Bestial Sanctum (and north of the farming area in this video). They drop about the same as the guys in this video but are way easier and safer to kill. Can get about 4-5k runes in less than a minute on horseback if you use the Lightning Spear incantation (damage is buffed by the constant rain there) and then fast travel back to the Grace. Might not get as many runes in the same amount of time, but it’s easier to learn and much safer. I usually get at least 12 faith on my characters so I can use Bestial Vitality and Cleanse, so all you need is the faith talisman to be able to use lightning spear.
There are a lot more than 4. I use that area as my go to when I need to top off runes to level up, or just farming. I can get 1300 per enemy with the golden scarab. Going from memory there are about 24 of them scattered all over to the left and right area in front of the bestial sanctum but before the bridge. So can be 30K+ in about 5 minutes depending on how efficient you are. They have a wicked range attack and if there are more than one together it can get intense. But they are pretty dumb and won't aggro if they dont see you attack their friend.
@@robunderwood8214 I just kill the four because they are the easiest to spot and kill in the quickest amount of time. They’re also on flat unobstructed ground vs the others who are in the hills with all sorts of stuff getting in the way.
I recently discovered this on my own, but in a slightly different way and you said to share so here goes... I only kill the first 3 then I reset back to the Grace. I only use my sword and nothing else, no flames, no magic, no ashes of war. The practice has made me a much better fighter and now I can do about 9,000 runes a minute. Not as good as 14,000/min but much better than dodging that giant ball.
Not that I can tell. Just used it today. Make sure you aren't locking onto enemies while going up hill, otherwise it won't hit them - it will just go into the ground. I recommend just not locking on while using it.
@@TobyWanShinobi im not locking on and having the exact same problem. sometimes the range is terrible, sometimes its amazing. and it seems to have no correlation with locking.
I worked it out. Dont lock, but you have to look higher than you think. Because the flame goes out horizontally from the level you are looking... so if you are looking into the ground it doesnt go far, you gotta look up the hill
I just wanted to say thank you for mentioning the part about not losing your ashes of War when you change them. On my first playthrough I held on to those things forever thinking they were consumables and that when I used one the one on it would be lost forever
I appreciate this guide. However, it ruins the magic of discovering the world. I may give this a try after I reveal all the map. For now I am going to run amuck looking for loot and encounters.
Fantastic guide TobyWan, I've just started playing and this is going to make life much easier for me. I immediately subscribed to the channel, thanks for posting. P.S love the Golem impression haha
Great content man. I've seen the other "farm videos" and while I appreciate their content, I prefer actually fighting something for my rune. (Probably cause I suck at this game and need to practice) Perfect detailed guide.
Wanted to say thanks. I am not a fan of the cheese/glitch farms. I play because I want to play. Having said that do you have any other farms for more mid to late game? Thanks again.
There is another ball in the bottom of the hill " as it appears hide behide the tree " so you can get 4k runes and if you take gold pickled fowl foot and get an Extra 1k runes
You get it off the Zamor knights in the Zamor ruins in mountaintop of the giants (right after taking the big lift up). They are a great farm cuz they provide a ton of runes, but they are tough!
My early game farm was the place where there are 5 giants. I just move around all of them and let them kill eachother and even if you get hurt. Everytime a giant dies they also give you 2 healths so you can't actually die there.
@@Cyberaser they don't, but if you run in circles they become close to eachother and hurt eachother while trying to hit you, to the point that they all will kill eachother and at the end one will be left with a very low health
Nah, you are OK. I do the same kill enemies relentlessly to obtain their armor and weapons, I like to collect them all XD. still angry that the Militia does not drop the Kusarigama.
This is the most detailed walkthrough I've viewed in a while. Breaking down every single aspect of this run must require a lot of patience. Anyways you must have missed the memo that these guys were buffed. They're 50% quicker than they were initially, and their attacks now damage regardless if you're in the middle of a combat animation. Still not hard, but damn near impossible for new players now. You'll consistently get hit, which would absolutely 1 shot a new character. These guys dodge flame of the redmane as if they're payed to do it. I went and tested after the patch for the hell of it, and they're speed was increased so drastically, that they dodge Bloodhounds Finesse (the dashing sword ability) 50% of the time. Unsure as to why this is "patched" given how there are infinitely more efficient or cheese farming methods. This was objectively one of the more fun ones, and it's as if the devs would rather players wall jump off of the map to glitch millions of runes..
Thank you for the compliment! I just did this farm on my level 43 character 20 minutes ago and it was the same... Do you have a link that references this buff? 50% faster would be ridiculous, as they are already fast and powerful. And allowing the player to be hit during a critical hit would be a very poor design decision, as the animation length differs, etc. I wasn't being hit while critical attacking them, and they were swinging through me.
lazuli glintstone sword +4 and 37 int with the double crown helm and you can 3 shot them, do the true combo to stun them with the pebble. Having glint arc helps to hit multiple of them even it they dodge
Understandable, it can be a really rough game for new players initially. If you consider playing again I really recommend watching my beginner combat guide video - it can be very helpful for new players and make things much more fun.

This guide is 100% well done. It has the maps and locations mentioned and shows the methods of farming provided step by step, locations of enemies, and tips as well. Absolutely splendid. Thank you so much.
Thank you MiL! I really appreciate the love. These guides take a lot of work to make
It could be cleaned up a bit. Timing a pause on map locations is like screenshotting that nude chick on Tik tok
thank you for this! most other farming guides either weren't worth the risk vs reward or were lower risk but didn't yield many souls. this one is perfect and i was able to level up to where i wanted to be plus upgrade all the weapons i wanted to upgrade. thank you so much!
That is great to hear! Glad you found it so helpful. Best of luck tarnished!
So…I tried to kill the knight the way the video said. But since the poison takes awhile and he kept going back down to the bridge I just climbed up on a branch next to the end of it and waited until my poison was up to go another round. He tried to follow me up the branch, and ended up falling off the BRIDGE, so I guess one way of doing it if you are impatient is to make him kill himself. 🤷♂️
44k rune boss poison thing is patched
Lure the boss to the poison 100% does not work anymore. I tried for about a half hour and he hardly took any damage.
Returns to his spawn point and regains health 😒😤
you can throw the boss off the cliff now
I just killed him with it yesterday with it

this is definitely tricky since I'm still pretty low level, but even me just killing a few of them is incredibly helpful. Thank you!
Yeah, they hit hard! So it's high risk, high reward. If you master the run shown for low lvl players at the very end of the video, you should be good to go. Then use those runes to level up higher and you'll be doing the full run very soon.
If u need help add me KnightDragonX_BX. I can join you and give u mustle support.
Just a heads up. The Calvary will not chase you up the hill past the big root so you can poison it but not kill it with the traps. My guess is they updated to prevent the cheese
It's patched but there is an even easier method now: ruclips.net/video/xvD_m47i_Ts/видео.html

Thanks for the real farm. I did not wanna watch a bird fall off a edge for hours. Keep up the videos im diggin your style
the bird is so much better than this plus u dont gotta watch it fall off as soon as it spreads its wings run back to grace-

Thanks Laniakea!
Hello all, while it’s still a viable rune farming (without jumping out of the map yielding 472947397384936 runes every hour /s) location, the nerfs to flame of the redmanes make the guardians a bit harder to kill. The dmg is no longer as strong as in the video while it casts slower as well. The guardians also move faster than you and they tend to move sideways more often.. makes it easier from them to hit you.
Best farm advice I’ve seen yet. Did this for about 2 hours yesterday while watching podcasts and leveled up 20 times. Great video dude thanks!!
Thanks Matt!
Yeah it’s a great video. Got the fire thing from the invisible beetle, but at only level 30 and without the other little perks I’m still too weak to farm it. The guys on the hill destroy me. But I’ll be back. I still can’t beat Margit the fell. I don’t think I’m very good at this game yet, but still grinding.
@@JLStreetDoc did you try my Elden Ring combat guide video? It might help you out!
And don't beat yourself up about it - this is a very HARD game. You should definitely explore a good amount of the world and then come back to Margit when you are nice and leveled up. He is crazy hard for a first boss.
@@TobyWanShinobi thanks.
I love this, an actual engaging and efficient farm. Thanks bro
Thanks Colin! Glad I'm not the only person who appreciates some sweet action while farming.
Yes just got the horsemen killed without touching him
@@patriciahood8791 nice!
The bird is best 👌 its easy af especially if you go grab a gold foul foot hit the momma dragon, get that 126k to level up quick from that and then go do bird after farming the gold foul foot and spend an hour. Im lvl like 100 now as of today from famring for maybe 15 minutes i did 2 runs with 5 feet and they last about 3 minutes per. And started at 45 from the dragon (look that up if you dont kmow what im talkkng about). Its a non glitch
For any mages trying this: Glintstone arc works well if you follow a few rules:
1: Contrary to your intuition, stay close to your target. Roughly just out of arms length.
2: When they retreat, press your advantage and keep walking forward while you spam. When they attack, step back until you stagger them then press forward on them again. Match lateral movement. If they swerve right, follow, etc.
3: Don't get TOO close. If you get close enough to hug them, they can use a much faster attack that will beat out your cast speed.
4: ALWAYS keep the closest one targeted and back-dodge the moment one of them gets to your side. Keeping them in front of you is crucial.
Hope this helps any mages struggling out there!
Thank you, great tips!
You don't have to beat any boss.
You don't have travel far.
You don't have to do any quests.
You don't even have to buy the game to do this.
ME: Nice
LOL. Just a warning, this is now pretty heavily nerfed because flame of redmanes no longer staggers with 2 shots. I would suggest using a weapon like the bloodhound fang, which I have a video guide on.
I always farmed them vulgar militia outside the bestiary and by the bridge. They’re spread out for the most part so you can face them one on one. They pause at the end of their routes for easy opportunities to back stab. A critical even at low levels can do half damage and they’re slow to begin attacking after the get up making it easy to kind of stun lock them with consecutive hits until they die. And they’re worth 1094 per kill.
It may not be as efficient as either of the above methods, but it gets you used to back stabs and stealth, that’s for sure. It also seems a bit safer because all your engagements should be 1v1, with little chance of getting swarmed.
For sure, I used to do that one also, then moved to this because it's faster when you can manage it.
Nah I am not fighting those guys after the bleed crap they did to me doesn't matter what level you are you take half health damage from the bleed status
That's my favorite place to farm for Runes To, the sword dance Asha war is really good for the area and knocks them on their ass and if done right can kill them in two hits.
This is what i did, i found and just kept using it. Could rack up 14k per min if you plan your route without getting off your horse too. Just beat the game today, did not feel hard.
Maybe the farming i did helped lol. It just felt good getting easy runes so i would just do it while i waited for something irl, say like my wife getting ready lol instead of waiting 20 mins sitting around i would just farm.
This is one of my favorite farms. All the 1v1s give you battle experience as a beginner.
Ruins 😭😭😭😭😭
Thanks man! I heard about the bird farming but then found out there's a bunch of other things I need to do first.
I just been grinding near the Beast master guy near the dragon bridge, fighting those little guys with the sickles for 1000 per kill.
That's exactly what I prefer to farm. Can rip through 20 of them in about 4 to 5 minutes and then rinse repeat.
They're easy as hell to kill unless they are grouped up or they get a couple lucky shots off. Sometimes they'll
even kill you with one quick combo if you let them, but usually I slay them without much difficulty.
@@32rekt62 hey I finally got to the birds, totally worth it
@@RonnieMyers777 I have no idea how to get to the birds. You're talking about that area where they shoot a bird across this wide gap and the bird runs off the cliff to it's death? If so, can you maybe let me know how to get there? I guess I could just google it lol.. just don't know what it's called.
@@32rekt62 IIRC go to Rose Church (Liurnia Lakes) and there's a guy in a mask hiding around there who gives you "fingers" to duel ppl. Do 3 fights (win or lose) and go back to him, then the item he gives teleports you to the area. You'll be right next to a site of grace where the bird is. Its like 13k or 17k with gold fowl foot
@@RonnieMyers777 🙏🏼
Just farm at the beastial sanctum area. Those little dudes give you 1300 every time and there is about 25 of those guys in that area.
Me too.. though it seems slower than this because it’s all single target. At lower level I just back stabbed those little guys one by one.
This has been my go to farm.
@@robertkindel9676 true, but also less risk due to the fights being 1v1 because how spread out they are. No FP required, but you can use it if you want.
Here’s one that I used in the beginning.
1. Ride as fast as you can to the “impassable bridge” grace site. (Lower Calid, SE) and rest.
2. Mount your horse and ride over the fire wall into the camp and BACK OUT again. (This activates a battle between devil dogs and guards.)
3. Stay at the back of the tower at the site of grace and collect 3-4000 runes.
4. After the battle dies down, rest at the site of grace and Repeat.
You don’t have to kill anything and you should take almost no damage.
Beware of the archers on the front of the tower.
I found myself collecting runes over there , I saw the war poppinn off and had no idea why I was collecting runes as I passed by , easiest robbing ever.
This also happened between the ape people and the limgrave soldiers over near the wolf pack with the white wolf sitting on top of the long rock pointing upwards out of the ground .
hell, I call in a summon and join the war, taking neither side and leaving absolutely no survivors.
remember to go up the hill on the far side a little bit to trigger the white dog that will howl for his friends to follow, then lead them back to the battle and it's pure chaos. LOVE IT!
This is how I leveled up. It's the best, if you are working from home. Run close enough to activate. Go back and chill for a while. Rinse and repeat, do other stuff. Make some eggs, have a coke.
@@pg9193 you can also add in the bird that is sitting more or less in front of the white dog and the poor horseman, which usually is the first one to fall xD Love that farming spot
Black Knight isn't dying for me. Runs a bit after me and then seems respawn aback on the bridge.

After the boos is poisoned do you have to make him teleport back to bridge and wait for him to die?
Im having a little trouble.
Edit: They patched it.
i booted off the game and came back the next day and i received the dragon heart when I spawned in... rip lol
Excellent vid!! On a side note, I had fun pitting the dogs and crows against the soldiers by the site of grace close to where the Flame of Redmanes ash of ruin is. Neither enemy can catch torrent and they agro each other
Personal opinion honestly not much in this video has any correlation between each other I followed the guide and the only good thing really good was the hook “42,000 runes”. The redmanes is good don’t get me wrong but how do you expect ppl who are farming for runes to already have that much arcane this early on. no shade or anything just didn’t find it worth while although there is a farm outside the impassable bridge that’ll be more than worth your while. Just watch the soldiers outside the post fight the giant / monstrous dogs and it can be an easy 3-7k runes per run alongside with the fact that the soldiers drop Radahn gear.
Thanks for the video, the Impassable Bridge in Caelid is also a great farm place. Just gallop through the enemies and they'll kill themselves in around 5 minutes giving you 6 to 8 k runes. Make sure to bring in all the dogs up the path.
Lure the big black knight in poison doesn't work anymore
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Dude you made me laugh so hard out loud when you said "It's more ruins" with Gollum voice
Did they fix how to kill the black riding horse early game with trap even after the black riding horses guy eat all the trap his hp is still only halfed
This is alot of work for 14k when you can just shoot a bird and get 11k in 10second.
True, but you don't have to progress any quests or beat any bosses.
I can't even do that bird farm since I killed that npc :-)
Also, my point made @ 00:28
@TobyWanShinobi Farming only has one purpose regardless of whether it's boring or not. Also, having to get a weapon to +14 to use the ash of war is a quest within itself. Dont get me wrong, your edit and video is exceptional, but trying to sell this farm to be on par with bird farm is a stretch.
@@gaalattila829 Probably for the best my friend. I have never done it, but it sounds wayyy too cheesy haha @ 00:28

Thanks shinobi
Wow. Thanks Jan!

Yeah so stupid, you gotta be level 100 atleast
Holy crap! Legit farm video! So tired of "look at the ball falling" farm videos :)
Same! Had to find something different haha
Can somebody explain how to kill the guy on the bridge
He won’t die for me and just keeps respawning back on the bridge with very little poison
Checkout the pinned comment above. New way to do it!
If you have none of the fancy stuff that TobyWan has, just get yourselves the Bloodhound's Fang, get enough stats to be able to wield it with both hands, get enough runes from the ball method to buy Somber Smithing Stones up to 4 from Iji the blacksmith in Liurnia and upgrade the Bloodhound's Fang to +4. Now go back to where the fast farm is. Use the weapon skill, Bloodhound's Finesse, it will hit at least a couple of them, after that your guy will jump backwards, press R2, he'll disappear and do another attack. This will likely kill the group or make them very weak. Just rinse and repeat, you'll get the distance for the perfect attack quick and farm these guys in no time without the need for magic and lots of items. Until you get the timing, stick to the first group near the grace only. After killing them, quick travel to the grace because it's faster.
Thanks, the fang is my main weapon that I have and was hoping it would be viable
@@BrokenWar46 As you get stronger and improves the Fang it becomes sort of trivial and it's better to also farm the upper floor. Right now with the claw talisman, I'm one hitting them with the jump R2 attack. I start by killing the first buried one while locked on the first guy next to a tree, then immediately jump attack the tree guy, turn to the right and the other buried one is still coming out of the floor. I two hit him with two R1 attacks.
Then I lock on the guy on top of a stone to the right and jump attack, kill the one coming out of the floor left of it. Then there's one right above coming out of the floor, jump attack. Now there's a group of three coming out of the floor, I jump attack the left one and Finesse the other two to the right, most times I get both of 'em because they stick together.
Then run up, there are two buried. Jump attack the one on the right, two R1's on the left on the left. Go behind the big pot, jump attack the buried one and R1 twice the one in front of it. Look down and there are two on a ledge sitting down and on down of them. Jump attack the closest one, stay on top of the ledge, the other two stay down but they come up jumping and have a long animation of doing nothing after that. Dispose of them with R1 as they jump up.
Get on torrent go upstairs, exit torrent. Jump attacks on any that are on the ground and R1 or jump R1 followed by R1 on any that are above ground or manage to come out before being killed. If any group of two manages to stay close together, Finesse them for a quick kill. There are also two easy ones just sitting around next to the hill. And that's it. With the scarab I get around 22k per run, teleport back to the grace. You can get level 100 within a couple hours of these guys and they're great to farm if you just need quick runes to upgrade a weapon or buy stuff from merchants.
Also, don't bother looting them after getting their full set for your collection, they drop nothing of importance. Other thing, use your heals liberally just in case you make some weird mistake and gets swarmed. Most of these little groups give you back estus after you dispose of them, so you basically have infinite heals.
There are better farm spots after that, like the albinaurics on the way to Mohg, but this one is the safest one with good speed that can be accessed early in the game and will serve you well up to levels 110-120 with an investment of 5-10 hours depending on how fast you can do the route. I also feel that you can do this route with almost any set up because you can jump attack these things easily since they have plenty of horizontal sideways attacks and are easily staggered. And lastly, Godrick's great rune is a good thing to activate here after you've managed to do the route without dying. The added damage will make you 1-2 shot them faster and the extra vigor and fp are not bad either.
Say it with me; "ROONS" And then; "LEM-GRAVE".

Out of dozens of ruin videos; this was the most honest and correct way to farm efficiently that didn't require cheating. (Jumping off oblivion for ruins) This is exactly what I was looking for to farm. I subscribed. Thanks bro from a fellow RUclipsr 🤙
Thank you my friend!
Is having a weapon at lvl 19 early game?
I like Caelid Ruins also...nets an average 5k or 6k per run through. The enemies are easy; small ones give 25, tall ones are 81, and the three "battle tanks" give over 1600. For low level players, I would avoid the tanks. But the enemies don't slap at you or anything like that, instead they chase you and blow themselves up after a short jog.
Edit: I've even gotten as much as 13k with the occasional 9k boost.
I like the impassible greatbridge for a similar amount. - between 6 & 9k a run, lots of redmane gear, and if the doggos & birbs scare you, lead them to the soldiers and let them do the killing for you. (Gets TONS faster at ~25 int with the glintstone arc)
My favorite "I hate re-starting" run is from the 1st Caelid waypoint, grab a dog or two on the way to the ruins (it's an extra 1K if the doggos die to the exploding fire skeletons, and if they don't they go home pretty early). Now run from the ruins to where the invisible scarab gave you redmane's stomp & lead the doggos there into the soldiers (the soldiers distract the doggos, the doggos distract the soldiers, and you carefully murder all of them). Next you stroll (VERY RAPIDLY) past the shrimp-man pest thread things on the way to the ruined greatbridge - repeating the "doggos and soldiers fight, *I* win" recipe.
Total between 12 & 30K per run, 3-5 minutes if you are just running for the rest points, 20 or so minutes if you can make the run without getting distracted (It can be REALLY slow if you get hung up on fighting the crows)
Discovered the run entirely by accident - trying to rush for the blessed dew talisman, but went to the wrong tower (no teleporter to scary boss here)
Innnnnteresting. I'll have to try this one out. Thanks for the detailed "how to" !
The flame thrower tanks are pretty easy to kill if you sneak up on them for a backstab, though I don't understand how our characters aren't allowed to pull the pilots out lmao

14k per minute? Dude bird is 11k per 10 sec lol
Yeah, that is true. Just a different farm that doesn't require beating any bosses, having any quest progress, and won't get patched. Not saying it's the most efficient, but I find it a lot more fun. I personally don't like doing farms where I feel like I'm not actually "playing the game." But that's just a weird personal thing for me. I like to feel like I've earned it a bit.
What bird?
@@amonteanderson9326 There is a bird in an area that is supposed to be a late game area (need to beat Godrick and do a fairly involved quest that probably isn't designed for new/mid game players). once you get there, you can stand on one side of a canyon, shoot at a large bird with an arrow and it runs towards you and falls of an edge, giving you 11,000 souls. There is a site of grace right next to it that you can rest at and reset the encounter again, over and over. It will probably be patched in someway, as this isn't really in-line with the way the devs want people to play the game. Most gamers do what is optimal, so I understand the desire to do it.
They already patched the bird.you have to stand in a different spot now. Or the bird will just teleport back on the ledge
I got the ash of war but the spear guys killed me easily still and it didn’t stun them

I farm the four little dudes west of the Farum Greatbridge site of grace, south of the Bestial Sanctum (and north of the farming area in this video). They drop about the same as the guys in this video but are way easier and safer to kill. Can get about 4-5k runes in less than a minute on horseback if you use the Lightning Spear incantation (damage is buffed by the constant rain there) and then fast travel back to the Grace. Might not get as many runes in the same amount of time, but it’s easier to learn and much safer.
I usually get at least 12 faith on my characters so I can use Bestial Vitality and Cleanse, so all you need is the faith talisman to be able to use lightning spear.
There are a lot more than 4. I use that area as my go to when I need to top off runes to level up, or just farming. I can get 1300 per enemy with the golden scarab. Going from memory there are about 24 of them scattered all over to the left and right area in front of the bestial sanctum but before the bridge. So can be 30K+ in about 5 minutes depending on how efficient you are. They have a wicked range attack and if there are more than one together it can get intense. But they are pretty dumb and won't aggro if they dont see you attack their friend.
@@robunderwood8214 I just kill the four because they are the easiest to spot and kill in the quickest amount of time. They’re also on flat unobstructed ground vs the others who are in the hills with all sorts of stuff getting in the way.
8-9 deaths in a row and loosing all of my runes I'm going back to watch the ball drop. This sucked but thanks for the flame attack AoW.
I recently discovered this on my own, but in a slightly different way and you said to share so here goes... I only kill the first 3 then I reset back to the Grace. I only use my sword and nothing else, no flames, no magic, no ashes of war. The practice has made me a much better fighter and now I can do about 9,000 runes a minute. Not as good as 14,000/min but much better than dodging that giant ball.
Nice! Yeah it's a great spot and the site of grace being so close makes it even better for farming without risk

Not that I can tell. Just used it today. Make sure you aren't locking onto enemies while going up hill, otherwise it won't hit them - it will just go into the ground. I recommend just not locking on while using it.
@@TobyWanShinobi im not locking on and having the exact same problem. sometimes the range is terrible, sometimes its amazing. and it seems to have no correlation with locking.
I worked it out. Dont lock, but you have to look higher than you think. Because the flame goes out horizontally from the level you are looking... so if you are looking into the ground it doesnt go far, you gotta look up the hill
@Phil correct, sorry should have explained that better in the last comment. It's in the video, but yeah it goes horizontally to your camera view.
I just wanted to say thank you for mentioning the part about not losing your ashes of War when you change them. On my first playthrough I held on to those things forever thinking they were consumables and that when I used one the one on it would be lost forever

Wanted to say thanks. I am not a fan of the cheese/glitch farms. I play because I want to play. Having said that do you have any other farms for more mid to late game? Thanks again.
I have this one: ruclips.net/video/dRPD3S7Rkc4/видео.html
There is another ball in the bottom of the hill " as it appears hide behide the tree " so you can get 4k runes and if you take gold pickled fowl foot and get an Extra 1k runes
Totally off topic, but I'm super curious what that armor is in the video thumbnail. I very much want it, but can find it listed anywhere.
You get it off the Zamor knights in the Zamor ruins in mountaintop of the giants (right after taking the big lift up). They are a great farm cuz they provide a ton of runes, but they are tough!
My early game farm was the place where there are 5 giants. I just move around all of them and let them kill eachother and even if you get hurt. Everytime a giant dies they also give you 2 healths so you can't actually die there.
Unless they squash you... You can always die in this game...
@@zap0918 keep dodging and stay alive :)
@@obaid.mohiuddin I'm trying, friend! :)
Those giants dont attack each other?!?
@@Cyberaser they don't, but if you run in circles they become close to eachother and hurt eachother while trying to hit you, to the point that they all will kill eachother and at the end one will be left with a very low health
Nah, you are OK. I do the same kill enemies relentlessly to obtain their armor and weapons, I like to collect them all XD. still angry that the Militia does not drop the Kusarigama.
Thankyou so much. I've levelled up more in the last hour than I have in 2 days playing. 👍👍👍
That is really great to hear! Very happy to help.
This is the most detailed walkthrough I've viewed in a while. Breaking down every single aspect of this run must require a lot of patience.
Anyways you must have missed the memo that these guys were buffed. They're 50% quicker than they were initially, and their attacks now damage regardless if you're in the middle of a combat animation. Still not hard, but damn near impossible for new players now. You'll consistently get hit, which would absolutely 1 shot a new character. These guys dodge flame of the redmane as if they're payed to do it. I went and tested after the patch for the hell of it, and they're speed was increased so drastically, that they dodge Bloodhounds Finesse (the dashing sword ability) 50% of the time. Unsure as to why this is "patched" given how there are infinitely more efficient or cheese farming methods. This was objectively one of the more fun ones, and it's as if the devs would rather players wall jump off of the map to glitch millions of runes..
Thank you for the compliment!
I just did this farm on my level 43 character 20 minutes ago and it was the same...
Do you have a link that references this buff? 50% faster would be ridiculous, as they are already fast and powerful. And allowing the player to be hit during a critical hit would be a very poor design decision, as the animation length differs, etc. I wasn't being hit while critical attacking them, and they were swinging through me.
Yeah this did not go well for me lol.
@@TobyWanShinobi have they nerfed the nights cav cheese? I had him follow me and he took no damage what so ever
@@blgarndogg9673 yes, they patched it but luckily there is a new faster way. Seen in this video:

I appreciate your tips man! You deserve a lot more views. Keep up the good work! Cheers.
Thank you Reggie!
@@TobyWanShinobi new video when?
@@reggiecarter6966 Working on it now :) Hopefully posted on Tuesday.
thanks so much! (you made me doubt my sanity saying 'ruin' instead if 'rune' but I'll forgive you lol)
Haha sorry for ruiiining your sanity.
lazuli glintstone sword +4 and 37 int with the double crown helm and you can 3 shot them, do the true combo to stun them with the pebble. Having glint arc helps to hit multiple of them even it they dodge
the black knight man will not die from the fart bombs.
See the pinned comment for the new method, the old method got patched.
The edit at :35 seconds is so beyond godly😂😂😂😂😂props my G we all appreciate you and keeping it real
Lol thank you. Glad someone appreciated that clip 😌
@@TobyWanShinobi everyone I know Hates that movie. for a reason I don't know i.laughed like hell thru the whole.thing. had forgot All bout it😆
WOW THATS WHAT THAT SYMBOL MEANS! OH MAN YOU'RE A LIFE SAVER THANK YOU
the exact farm ive been looking for thank you!!!
Stoked that you found it!
I’ve uninstalled this game. Very difficult. Couldn’t level up. Only died always
Understandable, it can be a really rough game for new players initially. If you consider playing again I really recommend watching my beginner combat guide video - it can be very helpful for new players and make things much more fun.
