Highroad Cave is a grotto in Elden Ring located in Stormhill, Limgrave, near the Saintsbridge Site of Grace. The cave’s entrance can be found near the mouth of the Murkwater River, far north of the Murkwater Catacombs. Tarnished adventurers who explore the depths of Highroad Cave will be able to find many practical items, including an Arteria Leaf, Golden Runes, Silver Fireflies, and Smithing Stones. However, the unique loot that will likely draw Elden Ring players to the entryway of Highroad Cave is the Shamshir Curved Sword and the Blue Dancer Charm Talisman. The sword can be found via exploration, and the Talisman is acquired from the Dungeon’s boss.
How to Complete Highroad Cave in Elden Ring
First, the Shamshir in Highroad Cave can be found on a body being feasted on by Giant Bats near the cavern’s waterfall area. The Blue Dancer Charm in Elden Ring is obtained by slaying the Dungeon’s boss, the Guardian Golem. This boss’s mechanics function very similarly to the Halberd Golem of Stormhill; therefore, attacking its ankles will bring it down.
Elden Ring: Seethewater Cave Walkthrough
Beginning from the Site of Grace in Highroad Cave, Elden Ring fans are recommended to bring a Torch or Lantern before venturing further into the Dungeon’s subterranean depths. After dropping down the first pit, continue through the next hole in the naturally lit area. Once players reach the bottom, they can head down the northern tunnel to find a small pack of wolves. After dealing with the hostiles, enter the shaft on the left to find a ledge with an Arteria Leaf.
Fight through the next pack of wolves to reach a large open chamber with multiple waterfalls. Follow the ledge trail on the left to a waterfall drop where players can land safely on the stone platform below. Sprint and jump onto the fallen pillar ahead to find the platform with the Shamshir Curved Sword. Jump across twice more to get to the tunnel on the other side.
Finally, follow the linear pathway to another hole leading to the central waterfall area. Stick to the left path and continue venturing deeper until reaching the fog wall of the boss chamber. Enter the arena and defeat the Guardian Golem to receive the Blue Dancer Charm Talisman in Elden Ring. This Talisman increases Physical Damage for Tarnished with lower Equip Load.
Elden Ring is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
