Gelmir Hero's Grave | Elden Ring Wiki

Gelmir Hero's Grave is a Location in Elden Ring. The Gelmir Hero's Grave is found in Mt. Gelmir, high above the center of the region. Players can get to the entrance of these catacombs by heading northwest from the Bridge of Iniquity site of grace, climbing up the rope ladder to the First Mt. Gelmir Campsite site of grace and heading around west. Alternatively, you can reach the catacombs by walking along the long jagged rock extending from the north of Hermit Village over the chasm (use the Primeval Sorcerer Azur Site of Grace).

Unlike most Catacombs and Hero's Graves, the doors leading to the Boss chamber in this dungeon do not require opening with a lever, they open manually.

Gelmir Hero's Grave Walkthrough

• Equip an Ash of War: Quickstep or Ash of War: Bloodhound's Step on your weapon to be able to move quickly through lava. Several claw items, such as the Bloodhound Claws also have this weapon art.
• With the right timing, Ash of War: Raptor of the Mists can be used to evade the chariots
• Ash of War: Endure skill will give a medium, but better than nothing, reduction in the damage from the chariot.

Once you enter and descend to the main area you will notice one main slope, be careful when lingering on the center slope since this is the chariot's main route. Anticipate the skeletons posted as the save crevices on the sides too that will pop out as you pass. Wait for the chariot to pass you before you advance to the next section until you dip into the last hollow section on the left.

Once the path narrows, you have two options here. The first is to continue dashing down the slope, and dip your feet into the knee-deep lava. The first chariot cannot chase you this far. Use Quickstep or Bloodhound's Step to dart across the lava without burning too much of your HP. At the end of this lava-filled corridor, turn left to get to a room with a chest containing the Ringed Finger. Going right, instead, will get you a Grave Glovewort [7] and a drop all the way to a ledge in front of the boss door.

The alternate, and more thorough route, sees you drop down the empty space to either side of the narrow path. Aim to hug the corners so that you land on the cross-shaped beams above the second chariot, rather than right into its path (which is a lethal drop instead). While on the beams above the chariot, watch its movements, and wait for an opportunity for the chariot to pause for a few seconds. This is your opening to jump onto the flat surface of the chariot itself, letting you ride over the lava to the ledge at the boss door. There's Beast Blood x3 on the corpse in the lava just next to the ladder leading up to the door.

Otherwise, wait for the chariot to clear out and drop onto the clearing below, where you can kill a Lesser Cemetery Shade and obtain a Mantis Blade from it. Pick up the Grave Glovewort [7] in the alcove. Look to the narrow uphill path, but rather than ascend it, drop to either side. You'll land on a ledge rather than in the lava, and underneath the ramp itself is a remains with Smoldering Butterfly x6. Turn the other way and head into the short arch-topped corridor and before going through all the way, make a right/north into a taller and easily missed corridor. This opens up into a room with a grave violet and 2 exits to the north. Here will be a Lesser Bloodhound Knight who will drop the Bloodhound Knight Set. This is also where you can loot the Gelmir Knight Set off of a corpse. Elden Ring Map here.

When you turn around, there will be a ladder directly behind on the south wall. This leads to a ledge with many pots to break to get to a remains with Root Resin x5. There is are two windows to jump out through and find yourself back on the wooden beams that would let you jump onto the second chariot. Use this path to re-attempt the jump if you miss.

Now, head up the ramp. There is a Stonesword Key at the top of the ramp, and to the side is a fire pillar that needs lowering to grant safe passage. Follow these rooms all the way through, and eventually you'll find yourself near solid footing at the end point of the first chariot. This is a more scenic route that gets you to the Ringed Finger and the shortcut to the boss room without needing to time or dodge around the chariots.

Regardless of how you reach it, the boss room pits you against the Red Wolf of the Champion. Defeating this boss will reward you with Bloodhound Knight Floh Ashes. Loot the remaining chest in the boss chamber to obtain Deathroot.
