Enir-Ilim’s walkthrough in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

Enir-Ilim is the last dungeon in the game Ring of Fire‘S Shadow of Erdtree DLC. It is located northwest of Belurat, but you will only reach it after defeating Romina, the Holy Bud.

Our Ring of Fire The DLC guide shows: full walkthrough of the Enir-Ilim Heritage dungeons and shows you all the places full of grace, boss fights and significant items.

Enir-Ilim location

You’ll just get there Enir-Ilim after a lot of other work, as this is technically the last DLC region. After defeating Messmer the Impaler in the Shadowkeep, you must travel to the Ruins of Rauh. There, in the Church of the Bud, you will have to face Romina, Saint of the Bud. On the other side of her boss fight you’ll find the Sealing Tree. Covering it with Messmer’s kindling will (eventually) transport you to Enir-Ilim.

Inside Enir-Ilim, you’ll have a final confrontation with Needle Knight Leda, followed by a final DLC fight with Promised Consort Radahn.

Burn the Sealing Tree

Defeating Messmer the Impaler (and Messmer’s Basic Serpent) will reward Messmer’s Kindling. Your next stop will be the Bud Church in the western ruins of Rauh. After defeating Romina the Bud Saint, you will find the Sealing Tree behind her arena.

Approach the tree and decide to burn it. After a low cutscene, you will be transported to Enir-Ilim.

When you reach Enir-Ilim, you will be standing by Enir-Ilim: The Outer Wall Place of Grace (There is also the Grim Smithing Stone to the west). Go up the stairs and go around to the right.

At the top, the Divine Bird Warrior will descend the stairs on the left. Go up these stairs. Inside, turn right and go up the low stairs on the left to find Place of Grace of the First Uprising.

Go up one of the curved stairs to the level above you, then go up the stairs to find a Grim Smithy Stone and a dead end. Return to the place of grace.

To the southeast is a straight corridor with Messmerfire Grease on the stairs. There’s an elevator at the end that will take you to Belurat – you’re on the other side of the branch-blocked path you found after defeating the Divine Beast Dancing Lion. There’s nothing for us to do here at the moment, so you don’t need to operate the elevator.

Instead, head west and up the stairs. Keep to the right and enter the room. Cleanse the shamans from within. Look for the door in the back right corner, behind the tree root. Move on, deal with the second Shaman and get the Bow of Runes.

Get off the ledge into the courtyard and take out the Shamans and the Godskin-sized shaman who drops… Venerable Spirit Ash. On the east side of the courtyard, go down the stairs.

On the landing below you will find a enormous tree surrounded by human flies. Follow the roots west to find an altar room with another Venerable Spirit Ash. Return to the fountain.

This time, go up the stairs, heading east. Follow them to the left. When you reach the top of the same enormous tree, head right. Get off the ledge and climb the tree. Get the Furlcalling Finger cure, then follow the branches to the other side. Jump down to the ledge and grab it Spira’s Spell.

Get off the ledge and go back up the same stairs. Go past the tree and deal with the Divine Beast Warrior. On the first enormous landing, take out the really annoying caster, then stay to the right. There are compact stairs leading up to where you just came from.

Head down, turn right and grab Inquisitor’s Ash. Return to the main stairs and continue up.

At the top of the stairs – above the door – is another shaman who will ruin your day, so keep moving, heading up. Push the door to find it Ascension Spiral Place of GraceAND Fragment of a Scadu treeand Miquella’s cross.

Go up the spiral staircase to the open window on the left – where that idiot is. Jump onto the roof and turn right.

Follow the rooftops around and past the Gravebirds. Hop onto the balcony on the other side and immediately turn left into the room to find it Venerable Spirit Ash.

Back outside, you have two options – follow the stairs to the next set or rooftops, or take a quick detour – to end up in the same place. A little further up the stairs, look for another set of stairs below on the right. Jump over the railing to fall onto them.

Go up the stairs and through the door to find it Ashes of the Horned Warrior and some stunning Bollus. Turn right and climb the ladder.

Go out to the balcony to grab the Golden Horn, then climb up the next ladder. Jump onto the rooftops ahead and deal with the Divine Beast Warrior waiting for you.

Turn left and enter the room at the top of the stairs – this is where the original stairs we jumped down from end. Inside you will find a Scadutree Fragment. Head back out and continue across the rooftops, heading east.

Keep left and you’ll come to a corpse with a Sun Stone. Return to where you fell out of the tower. Climb up the sloping roofs and up to the window.

Turn left and go up the stairs. Clear the Tree Shaman and take the elevator down. Follow the only possible path out and deal with the Cursed Blade so you can pick up the Grim Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone. Return to the elevator, head southwest, and activate it again.

There’s a ledge in front of you, a bit further. Jump on it and lift it Gravebird Helmet. Jump down, call the elevator and take it up.

Go outside and go up the stairs. Cross the next landing and deal with the Divine Beast Warrior – this time carrying a weapon The great sword of the horned warrior. Go past him and up the stairs.

In the next tower you will find it The antechamber of the purification chamber, a place of grace and a fragment of Scadutree.

Needle Knight Leda boss fight

Head east and up the stairs. You’ll come to a huge, sandy, open arena, and Needle Knight Leda will start badmouthing you.

When she challenges you and walks away, check behind you before hitting her summon sign. There will be signs reading Thiollier and Pureblood Knight Ansbach. Summon them (to expand their respective quest lines), then press the red sign to challenge Leda.

After defeating Leda and her allies, you’ll have plenty of loot to collect in the arena – everyone will leave behind their armor set and weapons. When you’re done collecting things, continue east. When you reach the hall, Leda herself will be on your right for you to loot.

Go up the stairs on the left and take the elevator up. Ansbach will be waiting for you upstairs. Exhaust his dialogue, then head up the stairs to Stairs in front of the Divine Gate, Place of Grace.
