RELATED: The Most Immersive Open World Games (April 2022)
Mohgwyn Palace from the underground Siofra River - the blood-red glow coming from the Parthenon-like structure nestled in the stars above is hard to miss. There are two ways to reach the Palace Approach Ledge-Road and its site of grace, but don’t waste your time in Siofra looking for a way up. To get here, you need to either complete Varre’s questline or reach the Consecrated Snowfield.
Method One: Complete White-Faced Varre’s Questline For The Pureblood Knight Medal
White-Faced Varre is the first NPC players come across when starting up Elden Ring. After exhausting his dialogue at Limgrave’s first Site of Lost Grace, head to the Rose Church in Liurnia of the Lakes, just southwest of Raya Lucaria. After getting a Great Rune and meeting the Two Fingers for the first time, Varre will ask you what your impression was - say “they didn’t seem right”. He will then give you some Festering Bloody Fingers to invade other players. Complete three invasions and return to Varre for the Lord of Blood’s Favor which must be soaked in the blood of a maiden.
The closest dead maiden is in the Church of Inhibition just past the Frenzied Flame Village in Liurnia, but you can also kill Hyetta or take a teleporter at the Four Belfies to find a dead maiden at the start of the game. Return to Varre to get the Pureblood Knight’s Medal, which when used will teleport the player to the foot of Mohgwyn Palace itself. Touch the Grace here and sprint north through the small forest and past a horde of red Albinaurics to reach the Palace Approach Ledge-Road on the other side of the Mohgwyn Palace zone.
Method Two: Through The Consecrated Snowfield Teleporter
The second route doesn’t require players to become a Bloody Finger, though it can take much longer to complete. First, you will need to access the Consecrated Snowfield. To do this, you will need to get the first half of the Secret Haligtree Medallion from Albus in Liurnia’s southeast Albinauric Village, then head to Leyndell through either the Dectus Lift or the secret pathway to the left of the Dectus Lift. You will need to defeat Morgott, the Omen King, to progress to the next zone.
Melina will give the player the Rold Medallion after beating Morgott, which can be used at the Grand Lift of Rold to reach the Mountaintops of Giants. In the deep north of this zone is Castle Sol, where players can find the second half of the Secret Haligtree Medallion. Go back to the Grand Lift of Rold and hoist the Secret Medallion to be brought to the Consecrated Snowfield. The teleporter that leads directly to the Palace Approach Ledge-Road is found by a cliff to the left of the Yelough Anix Ruins guarded by a Sanguine Noble enemy.
Elden Ring is available now for PC, PlayStation 4 and 5, and Xbox One and Series X|S.
