Smithing Stones are an important resource in Elden Ring, as they’ll allow players to upgrade their weapons and shields. Unfortunately, finding these in the open-world can be a time-consuming process as players scour the Lands Between. In this guide, we’ll show you how and where to buy unlimited Smithing Stones [1] and [2] in Elden Ring, so you can get upgrading all your gear.
Buying Smithing Stones in Elden Ring
You’ll be able to buy an unlimited amount of both Smithing Stones 1 and 2 from the Twin Maiden Husks found in the Roundtable Hold. However, you’ll need to offer them a Bell Bearing first, specifically, the Smithing-Stone Miner’s Bell Bearing.
Obtaining the Smithing-Stone Miner’s Bell Bearing
The Smithing-Stone Miner’s Bell Bearing item can be obtained by defeating the Crystalian boss fight at the bottom of Raya Lucaria Crystal Cave, or at the bottom of the Academy Crystal Cave.
Both of these locations are found in the Liurnia of the Lakes area. The Raya Lucaria Crystal Cave can be found on the northeastern side of the region, while the Academy Crystal Cave can be found by following the Liurnia shallows towards the west of the Raya Lucaria Academy.
The entrance is found on the western cliff below the academy itself, barred by an Imp Statue that you’ll need a Stonesword Key to unlock.
Continue to make your way through either cave system, and you’ll eventually find a Crystalian boss fight waiting to be beaten.
We highly recommend the use of a powerful summon with high HP to distract the Crystalian while you get in some hits, particularly if you opt for the Academy Crystal Cave, where you’ll have to take on two Crystalians at once.
Taking the Bell Bearing to Twin Maiden husks
Now fast travel back to the Roundtable Hold and visit the Twin Maiden Husks a short stroll from the roundtable room itself.
You’ll now have the option to ‘Offer Smithing Miner’s Bell Bearing [1].’ Select this option, and you’ll now be able to buy an unlimited amount of Smithing Stone [1] and [2] whenever you need them.
Smithing Stone [1] cost 800 Runes, while Smithing Stone [2] cost 1600 Runes.
That’s everything you need to know on how and where to buy Smithing Stones [1] and [2] in Elden Ring. For more tips, tricks and guides on FromSoftware’s epic RPG, head over to our wiki, or see more of our coverage on the game below.
