In Elden Ring, fist weapons are incredible at unleashing a flurry of quick attacks while consuming less stamina. They are also highly effective against enemies that don’t move much, allowing you to deal more strike damage when the opportunity presents itself.

The Golem Fist is a brand-new fist-type weapon added to the game as part of the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. While the weapon drops upon defeating the golem of the ruined forges, the drop rate of this weapon is incredibly low. Let's get to locating the forge where you can farm two of these golems for the coveted weapon.

Where To Find Golem Fist In Shadow Of The Erdtree

Elden Ring - Shadow of the Erdtree - Taylew's Ruined Forge

One of the best locations to farm the Golem Fist is Taylew’s Ruined Forge, located in Rauh Base. Here you can also find the Smithscript Shield. You can reach this location by riding northeast from the Highroad Cross Site of Grace.

Once you’re inside the forge, discover the Site of Grace, head east until you reach a wide balcony overlooking the lava below.

Immediately take a left, and follow the set of stairs to reach a lower platform. Head east and drop down to another level, and continue following the stairs.

Elden Ring - Shadow of the Erdtree - Furnace Pipe

When you reach the very end of the end of the platform, look for a large furnace pipe to your south. Sprint and jump from the platform to land on the pipe’s handle.

Sprint all the way to the top of the pipe, and you should now see two platforms, one platform to your north and other to your south.

Elden Ring - Shadow of the Erdtree - Golem Fist

You’ll find two golems on the southern platform, but only one of them here drops the Golem Fist. You can identify this golem easily, as it launches ranged fist attacks at you.

Another golem can be found in the passageway that you can access from the northern platform. Be wary of the Magma Tears here, and avoid traveling deep into the passageway, as it may attract the attention of a second golem.

Only golems that use ranged attacks drop the Golem Fist. When farming for a rare drop, consider equipping the Silver Tear Mask and consuming the Silver-Pickled Fowl Foot.

The Golem Fist is primarily a strength-scaling weapon. It comes equipped with the Endure Skill skill, which temporarily increases your poise. However, you can replace it with any Ash of War of your preference.

The weapon's strong attack launches the entire fist at enemies at medium range.

You can also infuse the Golem Fist with your favorite weapon affinity, and upgrade it to +25 using the Smithing Stones and an Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone.
