Locating the Giant’s Seal in Elden Ring

Location of Giant Conquering Hero's Grave

You can obtain the Giant’s Seal as loot from the Giant-Conquering Hero’s Grave, a dungeon located atop a plateau in the initial regions of the Consecrated Snowfield.

This dungeon is accessible quite early in your journey, necessitating a trek through the northern part of the Consecrated Snowfield before looping back to find it. The dungeon is marked by enormous circular lights and features unseen enemies lurking within.

Be cautious of the Burial Watchdogs and Giant Trolls that inhabit the Giant-Conquering Hero’s Grave, as they are regular foes in this area.

Upon entering the grave, take a left and jump through the window ahead to save some time.

Next, turn right and ascend the stairs while evading the watchdog enemy. This will lead you to the first Ring of Light, which can help you combat the invisible foes lurking within.

From the Ring of Light, turn left again and then head right towards the fire pillar. You can deactivate it by striking it. In the room with the pillar, turn left and enter the narrow passage.

In the following section, move straight ahead until you find a small lift in front of a Giant Troll statue. Activate the lift by stepping on the pressure plate. Before leaving the lift, step on the pressure plate again to move it back up.

This maneuver will reveal a hidden chamber within the lift. Pull the lever to the left and enter this concealed area, taking you deeper into the Giant-Conquering Hero’s Grave.

Continue straight ahead and then turn left to discover a ladder at the corridor’s end. Ascend the ladder, then take a right to find a Fire Prelate positioned in the middle of the arena.

To avoid detection, crouch down and look to your right to find a corpse bearing the Giant’s Seal.
