Unlocking the Dragon Towershield in Elden Ring: A Guide

The Dragon Towershield, adorned with the emblem of an ancient dragon, stands as one of the finest defensive tools in Elden Ring. This extraordinary greatshield pays homage to the legendary dragons that once safeguarded their masters with their formidable stone bodies.

In this guide, you’ll learn where to find the Dragon Towershield and how to utilize it effectively against your foes.

Where to Find the Dragon Towershield in Elden Ring

You can acquire the Dragon Towershield from a treasure chest located in the Crumbling Farum Azula area.

To access the Crumbling Farum Azula, you need to first complete the Leyndell region and make your way to the Mountaintop of the Giants. Defeat the Fire Giant and set the Erdtree ablaze. This action will teleport you directly to the Farum Azula.

Advance further until you reach the Dragon Temple Rooftop Site of Grace. From there, drop down and navigate across the rooftops until you encounter the injured ancient dragon that targets you with red lightning.

Head to the left and drop down onto the edges, which will lead you to a small area. Be cautious here, as it’s a long drop. Once you land safely, turn left and ascend the ladder to reach the upper level.

Defeat the banished knight located to your left, just before the treasure chest. Open this chest to gather the Dragon Towershield in Elden Ring.
