Although completely optional, the Three Fingers embody the will of the Frenzied Flame, and you need to find them if you have to unlock the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending for Elden Ring. This is one of the most difficult endings to get in the game.
This is a dark ending of the Elden Ring, where you get the final boss fight early in the game and touch Fractured Marika to become the Lord of the Frienzied Flame while burning the Erdtree and the entire world with it.
How to Find Three Fingers in Elden Ring?
As the Three Fingers directly oppose the rule of the Greater Will and Two Fingers, they are hidden quite well in the game. Three Fingers can be found in the Cathedral of the Forsaken, at the bottom of the Subterranean Shunning Grounds. These can be found below Royal Capital Leyndell.
Getting to the Underground Roadside Site of Grace
Starting from the Avenue Balcony, take the stairs to head down, and then make a left. Right where you find the dragon wing, jump to the left side of the railing, and you will find yourself standing near a well.
This area will take you to an underground tunnel with giant rats and then to the Subterranean Shunning Grounds. Take the first door on the left to activate the Underground Roadside Site of Grace.
Move Through the Tunnels
Walk out of the site of the grace area and take a left turn. You will find a hole in the ground that will take you to the tunnels. Note that there will be giant rats and snails in this area that you would want to immediately run past.
Take the first tunnel on your right and keep following it. There will be a hole that you want to jump over, so keep going straight until you get to another hole to jump over again.
Take the right gated tunnel from the parting ways and carefully go straight till you exit. Use the ladder in the next area to go to the higher platform. Open the door before you and pull the lever near the giant gate. Now, walk in the door, move to the left side, and drop down to the lower platform.
Head to the Second Tunnel Area
At the lower platform, kill the scarab to get the somber smithing stone (6), string, and warming stone. Move past the enemies in the hallway and make a left turn. Then, go down the stairs to enter the second tunnel.
Take the first tunnel on the right and continue past the giant frog. When you reach the second frog, take the right turn and keep going straight until you exit the tunnel.
In the next area, you will encounter another enemy, wait for his AoE attack, and then run past him to the ladder behind to go up. On the upper platform, open the door in front to activate the site of grace. Run past the door and jump on the pipe on the right side.
Go straight on the pipe and drop down on the pipe on the right side. Keep moving straight and go around the pipe in an anti-clockwise direction to reach the open doorway. From the end of the path, jump down into the open tunnel head below.
Clearing the Third Tunnel Area
When you land in the tunnels, turn back and move to the southeast end of the tunnel. Keep going straight and take the left; your direction will be northwest. Kill the giant rat in your way and take right. This time, you would have to fall down the hole.
Turn back and kill the enemy, turn around again in the northeast direction, and keep going straight. This will take you to the end of the tunnel toward another ladder. Climb down the ladder and hop onto the elevator. This will take you to the Forsaken Depths Site of Grace.
Defeat Mohg, the Omen King
The Forsaken Depth Site of Grace will take you to Mogh, the Omen King boss fight. Kill the boss, activate the site of grace, and loot the chest; behind the chest is a secret passageway you must reveal by hitting the wall.
How to Clear the Secret Passage?
Once the secret passage opens, go down the stairs, and you will come into an area with corpses of lots of dead NPCs.
Don’t cross to the other side yet; you must drop down. This will be tricky, and you need to land exactly on lower ledges.
Once you move through the area, take the wooden ledge inclined to the other side. Try to land on the ledge below and then take the platforms on the corner.
Now, jump in the south direction from here to land on a platform on your left. Next, you need to jump to the platform in front.
From the next platform, jump to the next in the same direction. This will be in a lower area; now, turn northeast and jump straight to another lower platform in front.
When you reach the next platform, face northeast and jump to the lower area below. Then, jump to the platform near you on the southeast end.
Take another jump in the southeast direction to land at a lower platform. From there, turn northwest and jump on the next area.
Explore the area here, and you will find Fingerprint Stone Shield and Yellow Ember. Now, stand on the edge and jump down. This will cause the floor to fall, and you will get to the area below.
You will now be in the Cathedral of the Forsaken area. Activate the site of grace before heading to the door.
How to Open the Door to Three Fingers Chamber?
To open the door, you need to remove all of your armor but keep your weapons on. Then, simply go near the door and interact with it, and the door will open.
Three Finger’s Questline
Now, the Three Fingers or the Lord of Frenzied Flame questline is one of the earliest you can start without knowing it. Note that there are no compulsory questlines you need to complete to get the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending in Elden Ring.
What Happens After Interacting with Three Fingers in Elden Ring?
Three Fingers will mark the player’s flesh and unlock a unique ending. Since Frenzied Flame is directly opposite Greater Will, Melina will disown you, leaving you Maidenless again.
If you have interacted with Three Fingers before defeating the Fire Giant in Mountaintops of the Giants, Melina will refuse to sacrifice herself to burn away the Erdtree.
Furthermore, interacting with Three Fingers will lock you out of all other endings. You do not get the choice to use any other Mending Rune, even if you got them by completing other major quests. Suppose you want to give up on the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending. In that case, you need to complete Millicent’s questline, get the Golden needle, go to Haligtree, defeat Malenia, get Miquella’s Needle, go to Farum Azula, defeat Dragonlord and then use Miquella’s Needle on yourself to free yourself from Frenzied Flame’s hold.
This is presented briefly, but it’s a huge pain. As such, we recommend only having an audience with the Three Fingers if you want to get the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending.
