The Furnace Giant in Elden Ring: how to defeat and why you need the Face of the Giant

Tips on how to kill the Furnace Golem and where each of the eight is located.

The Furnace Giant fire giant from the main game, only worse: attacks are difficult to track, you can only effectively attack the legs or into the basket using pots, and the legs of some individuals are protected by powerful armor. In addition, bosses have enormous health.

In the guide we will look at how to kill the Furnace Giants in Elden Ring and where they are located in the DLC.

How to prepare for a fight with the Furnace Golem

To combat golems, make the following preparations:

  • Find the Fire Dragon Talisman +3 in the DLC. Lies in a chest in the Fort of Blame. Protects from fire by +22%.
  • Best shields for fire resistance - Stone shield with prints.
  • Prepare Fire Resistant Dried Liver, increasing fire resistance even further.
  • Golems have low resistance to bludgeoning and piercing types of damage, lightning and magic. Select and sharpen weapons taking into these vulnerabilities.
  • Killing Armored Leg Golems will require Large Furnace Pots or Large Fire Pots. To create these, collect Large Cracked Pots, which increase the maximum number of craftable pots listed above. Pots from the furnace will require Faces of the Furnace Giant, which drop both from the golems themselves and from Messmer's soldiers. Large pots from the furnace are more difficult to create, but they do ~45k damage. Large fire pots are easier to create, but will only do ~20k damage.
  • You can fight against giants, even unarmored ones, both on Potok and on foot. If you prefer the first method, then install rowan in quick access. She heals Flow.

Finally, buff your character and summons with damage and defense modifiers from the DLC: By the ashes of the glorious spirit.

How many Furnace Giants are there in Elden Ring?

In the territory of the Kingdom of Shadows lives eight giants. All of them are divided into two types:

  • [Strong] With protected legs.
  • [Weak] No armor on legs.

Let's look at the routes where each Furnace Golem lives in Elden Ring.

Furnace Golem 1

Location: Tombstone Plain.

 

A weak golem is strolling through the field north of the Charred Ruins. This is the first location within walking distance from the entrance to the addition. Kill Reward: Solid Reflective Tear: When added to a Miraculous potion, it allows you to block attacks with a weapon block, similar to Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.

Furnace Golem 2

Location: Shadow Altus, near the Shadow Haven.

 

At the southern entrance to Shadow Haven there is a large tent camp of soldiers and knights Messmer the Impaler. Once the player gets close enough to the camp, they will be attacked by its inhabitants, including the golem. This makes the fight one of the toughest of the eight. The good news is that the golem has no protection on its legs. The prize for killing the mini-boss is a Dried Crimson Tear: as part of a potion, it heals allies around you, but not the drinker.

Furnace Golem 3

Location: South of Rabbath's Rise.

 

You will meet this golem with shields on his legs on the way to the magical tower of Rabbath's Rise and the Manus Metir Cathedral. ing Ymir's quest line, you will definitely encounter a giant: he walks north of the forest where wolves live. The forest itself is easier to access from the village of Bonny. Reward for destroying an enemy - Cracked Azure Tear: restores OK for hits with attacks.

Furnace Golem 4

Location: Shadow Altus, Unthe Ruins.

 

On the territory of the lake, to which you will come out from the grace of the “Castle Watering Place”. This area can be reached by finding and unlocking the illusory wall in the Shadow Haven sewers:

  • Deal with the Golden Hippopotamus.
  • Standing at the crossroads and looking at the Sample Storage door (north), turn right and explore this part of the castle wall for a vertical staircase leading into the sewers.
  • After going down the linear path, go to the room with the painting, in which the illusory wall is located.
  • After breaking the wall, go through it and climb into the coffin. He will take you to grace at the Ruins of Unte.

For defeating the golem you will be given an Oily Tear: after taking it as part of the potion, it releases oil in all directions, falling on enemies. Enemies doused in oil are vulnerable to fire.

Furnace Golem 5

Location: Ruins of Unthe.

 

He lies, blocking the entrance to the courtyard of the ruins with his body. Throw it in the basket (on his head) Large pot from the ovenso that he wakes up and can be killed. The reward for defeating the boss is a Cracked Blood-Sucking Tear: a mixture of it increases attack, but gradually reduces HP.

Furnace Golem 6

Location: at the grace "Haro's Secret Grave".

 

To get to the area with red flowers, follow the route shown in the screenshot. Briefly about which path to follow:

  • Complete the Dragon Pit dungeon.
  • Ride the Stream first east, to the huge dragon corpse at the fork, then turn southeast and reach the area with red flowers.
  • Ride to the northwestern part of the hill.

Please note that when fighting a protected golem in the arena, a Spiritual Current always blows in its area of ​​residence, allowing you to jump onto a rocky hill. This is necessary to defeat the boss. This stove golem has protection on its legs. Prize for victory - Crystal tear of lily of the valley: enhances the attack of spirits.

Furnace Golem 7

Location: north of the Cote d'Azur grace.

You will find this enemy without shields if you go down the river almost to the Cote d'Azur. Let's look at the route to get to the arena with a golem:

  • From the grace of the tent camp at Ensis Castle, ride the Stream to the southeast. At the place where Messmer's Guard fights the Bloodletters, turn down into the area of ​​poisonous swamps.
  • Once you reach the swamps, turn northwest and follow the descent to a pond where a large crab and a family of poisonous flowers live. Next to the flowers there is an entrance to a cave leading to the grace "Cave by the River Ellak".
  • Leave the cave, go down the river, heading south. At some point, this route will lead to an arena with thunder sheep, where a giant also walks.

Item for a miraculous potion for triumph over an enemy - Secret Emerald Tear: for 15 seconds allows you not to waste stamina for any actions.

Furnace Golem 8

Location: Ruins of the ancient monastery of Rauha.

 

From the grace of the “Ruins of the Rauha Monastery, West”, ride north to the lake near the waterfall. Reward - Cracked Crimson Tear: if drunk, it will restore health from attacks for 45 seconds.

How to defeat the Furnace Giant in Elden Ring

Next, we look at the giants' moveset, their weak points and tactics for fighting armored and regular types.

Furnace Golem Attacks

Different types of golems prefer different techniques. Let's imagine all the attacks:

  • Slams one foot into the ground, creating a fiery blast wave across the floor. Avoid by jumping, both on foot and on the Stream.
  • A jump that upon landing generates a powerful explosion and a fiery blast wave across the floor. Move away to avoid being hit by the explosion, and jump to avoid the wave of fire.
  • The Furnace Giant gets down on one knee and captures the character, burning them in the basket. You can only avoid it by rolling or quickly running behind your legs. To avoid provoking your enemy to use this technique, always try to stay behind his legs.
  • The Furnace Giant unleashes a fiery tunnel whirlwind with extremely high range. Can only be used in ranged combat. Maneuver the Flow to the side to dodge long-range shots, and also use the environment as a natural barrier.
  • Hitting the ground with your hand, causing a wave of fire in a small radius. Easy to avoid by staying behind the boss's feet.
  • Releases fire rain from the basket. It will not be possible to hide at your feet from the rain, since the shells reach there quite well and work with little homing. Avoid the magma by constantly moving to the side. This attack is mainly used by the armored type.
  • Waves his arms in front of him. Applies the technique when he sees a player in front of him at a medium-close distance.
  • A kick with stone boulders flying at the player. Turn to the side.

Armored golems are in many ways more difficult to defeat: to attack them, you need to be in sight of them - in front - which is much more dangerous than spinning at their feet.

Weaknesses of the Furnace Giants

The Furnace Giant in Elden Ring has 3 weak points:

  • Horned mask.
  • Legs (unarmored type).
  • The furnace itself (if you throw a Large Furnace Pot or a Large Fire Pot into it).

In combat with an unarmored type, it is better to target the legs for attacks, which guarantees protection from the giant’s capture and area shots. The armored giant's weak point is the horned mask mounted on the front of the basket. For the massive damage from the Big Pot from the Furnace to take effect, you need to throw it directly into the giant's basket.

Battle tactics

The approaches to battles with armored and unarmored giants are strikingly different.

With an unarmored giant

Focus all your attacks on the giant's legs. An approximate algorithm to which the long process of killing comes down to:

  • Get behind the giant's legs and always try to stay in this area so that his capture does not kill the character. The area behind your feet is the safest.
  • Counter the giant's stomp with one foot with a jump: the burning earth does not cause damage, its source is only a blast wave ing along a horizontal surface.
  • When the giant jumps with both feet, then protect yourself with a shield with good fire resistance or run as far as possible from the boss so as not to get caught in the explosion, then jump.
  • In between trampling the giant, hit both legs. The goal is to throw off the balance of both of your opponent's legs: first, perform power attacks or jumping attacks on one active stomping leg until you hear the off-balance indicator, then repeat this with the second leg. Sometimes the procedure needs to be done twice. The brute, with both legs off balance, will fall to the ground.
  • After knocking down the giant, approach his mask and perform a critical attack. It is the main source of damage to the golem.

Approximately during the battle you will have to carry out 2-3 critical attacks, which means you will have to knock down the boss 2-3 times.

With an armored giant

Since the damage to the legs no longer goes through, you will have to face the giant, which is much more dangerous. The conventional way to deal with an armored type is to throw Large pots from the furnace or Large fire pots into its head-basket. How to do this at the location at the Secret Grave of Haro.

  • There is a hill and a spiritual spring in the battle area. Take the high ground, trying to avoid the fiery rain.
  • Lure the golem closer to the hill so that its basket is visible.
  • Throw the pots Add to cart. Spam pots as they interrupt the boss' attacks.

There is a special safe way to kill the Furnace Giant on the road to the Cathedral of Manus Metir. Stand on the path under two rocks, which will act as an umbrella from the giant’s magmatic rain. Sometimes he can use a kick that throws away fiery boulders, but will not be able to hurt otherwise. Aim at the horned mask and shoot it with a bow or staff. Ordinary arrows with a fully upgraded bow will cause ~500 damage, so this method is not fast, but it is safe. Collect at least 2-3 types of arrows, 99 pieces each.

What is the Face of the Furnace Giant for?

The Kiln Giant's Face is a crafting item needed to craft Large Kiln Pots. Living giants are guaranteed to leave it after death; it can often be found among the corpses of already dead giants, and Messmer’s soldiers drop this item with a probability of 8% only at the entrance to the Shadow Haven. To be able to craft these powerful pots, which deal approximately 40-45 thousand damage to active giants when thrown into a basket, find The Greatest Potter's Handbook (2) in a run-down tavern under the bridge that leads to Ensis Castle.

We hope our guide was valuable in killing the Kiln Giants in Elden Ring. If you have any questions about behavior on the battlefield and the location of mini-bosses, then ask them at comments. Read more DLC guides at Elden Ring section.
