Located deep in the underground palace of Mohgwyn, the Mohgwyn Palace bird provides an excellent rune farming spot for players looking to quickly accumulate runes and level up. Here is a guide on efficiently farming this lucrative avian foe.
Reaching Mohgwyn Palace
To access the palace, players must first defeat Moghw the Omen at the drainage channel behind Stormveil Castle. Offer 25 golden seed sacrifices at the Palace Approach Ledge-Road site of grace to lower the barrier.
Surviving the Bleed Swamps
Wading through the poisonous swamps inflicts rapid blood loss buildup. Buy Elden Ring items like Rotten Wing Insignia and Crimsonwhorl Bubbletear can increase immunity. A high-tier Bolus also protects against status effects.
Defeating Lichdragon Fortissax
After crossing the bleed swamps, players must defeat this formidable aerial boss blocking the path. Success unlocks a hidden path towards the avian farming spot.
Reaching the Bird's Nest Site of Grace
Drop down near Fortissax's arena, then carefully navigate treacherous trap floors and revenant enemies guarding the area. Resting at the hidden site of grace readies players for bird farming.
Farming the Bird
From the hidden site of grace, drop down the long elevator shaft onto the narrow walkway below. Here players can safely engage and quickly defeat the giant bird for ultra-valuable Golden Runes.
Maximizing Runes Per Run
With the Silver Tear Mask and Silver-Pickled Fowl Foot consumables equipped, each bird kill nets over 50,000 runes. With low investment and fast reloads, Tarnished can rapidly gain levels at this prime farming spot. You can just buy Elden Ring items on MTMMO.
Alternative Farming Spots
Should players require an easier early-game alternative, the Windmill Village in Caelid provides a reliable rune spot against its own giant birds.
