Discover how to reach the Stormveil Cliffside Site of Grace in Elden Ring. Learn the locations of valuable items like the Brick Hammer, Curved Sword Talisman, and Rusty Key, and strategies for defeating enemies.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Stormveil Cliffside Site of Grace: From the Stormveil Main Gate Site of Grace, enter the gatehouse containing Gatekeeper Gostoc. Exit through a hole in the wall to the southwest. Follow the linear path, drop off a wall, defeat a Bladed Talon Eagle, and turn northwest to find the Site of Grace.
  2. 2
    Marred Leather Shield: From the Stormveil Cliffside Site of Grace, ascend ledges and stairs to the north and northwest. Loot a corpse along the way to find the Marred Leather Shield.
  3. 3
    Hookclaws: Continue from the Marred Leather Shield location. Ascend stairs and enter a tower. Go north through a doorway, kill two Commoners, and proceed past stairs to a chamber. Defeat the axe-wielding Castle Guard and loot a corpse in the corner for the Hookclaws.
  4. 4
    Rusty Key & Banished Knight: Backtrack to the stairs ignored earlier and proceed upwards, being cautious of Commoners throwing Fire Pots. After dealing with them, you'll find a locked door. Go southeast from the fork, provoke a Commoner to throw a Fire Pot at explosive barrels, then defeat them. Smash crates to reveal stairs. Go up, kill a Commoner, and turn northeast to a doorway. Enter the room where Gatekeeper Gostoc might lock you in if alive. Defeat the Banished Knight. Loot a corpse on the eastern end of the room for the Rusty Key.
  5. 5
    Brick Hammer: Use the Rusty Key on the locked door. Turn right (southeast) and kill two Commoners. Jump to a southwest platform, exit through a hole in the wall, descend stairs, enter a tower, defeat two Castle Guards, and loot a corpse for the Brick Hammer.
Tips
  • When fighting the Banished Knight, if you die, returning later allows Gostoc to not lock you in, and you can perform a backstab for an easier start.
  • Be aware of Castle Guards who can summon allies by sounding a horn. Killing them quietly makes subsequent fights easier.
  • Commoners near explosive barrels can be provoked to throw Fire Pots, allowing you to detonate the barrels from a safe distance for an easy clear.
  • Be cautious of enemies throwing Fire Pots from ledges as you ascend through certain areas.
