Golem Fist is a new weapon in Elden Ring introduced with the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. A fist made of fractured rocks; this weapon was taken from the bodies of forge golems.
In this guide, we will show you how to farm the Golem Fist in Elden Ring and how to utilize it to create an impressive Bleed Build that can easily defeat any boss.
Golem Fist Location in Elden Ring
Golem Fist can be obtained by farming Stone Golems in Taylew’s Ruined Forged in Elden Ring. This forge can be found in Rauh Base, west of Scadu Altus.
Start from the Highroad Cross site of grace north of the Shadow Keep. Go northwest and follow the path to the left. Go through a small cave where you will encounter a Giant Miranda Sprout and a couple of perfumers. Avoid the Stone Birds in the next area before reaching the poisonous swamp.
Once you reach the Rauh Base site of grace, follow the path northwest until you reach the location marked on the map. Enter the broken house through a small door, and it will lead you to Taylew’s Ruined Forge in Elden Ring.
As the Golem Fist has only 3% drop rate for every 100 points in Discovery stat, we recommend consuming a Silver Pickled Fowl Foot and using Silver Tear Mask to increase your discovery. There are a couple of stone golems in the early sections of the forge that you can farm indefinitely.
Make sure to avoid the Flame Tears as they can prove deadly if you are not careful while farming the stone golems. This way, you can easily obtain the Golem Fist weapon in Elden Ring.
