There is no lever to open the door at the end. You open it like a normal door. Also, there is a weapon in a chest, as well as a shortcut to the boss door, at the end of the first lava pathway. Let the chariot turn around one final time and make your way down to the bottom of the hill. The chariot will not follow you. This skips the second chariot section, but also causes you to miss out on an armor set.
You can easily skip to the boss room after dodging the first chariot, if you go into the lava area past where the first chariot ends its track, theres a room on the left with a "Ringed finger" greathammer, and to the right theres a small alcove with a grave glowart and a small ledge that if you drop down twice, drops you right in front of the boss room door.
Never needed a walkthrough like this in a souls game before. Plenty of articles of tips and tricks, and a few build videos. But never this. Until I absolutely needed it. Thanks for the super easy to follow video, much appreciated
I had to personally comment due to just how much of a god send this was, i'd of never thought that I could just jump on the chariot, I made it most of the way down by brute forcing it through the lava before I looked up this guide.
I honestly believe these catacombs are the worst thing Fromsoft has to offer. EVERYTHING tells us these Chariots are deadly to any touch. And now, you have to ride it? I got to the very END of what I was suppose to do, then I had to see you needed to ride it. I'm sorry, but this is bad level design. I don't care of the deity Miyazaki made it. I just hate every solution in these catacombs.
There’s a massive shortcut on this which I found by accident! Basically as you go down the second ramp bit, you can drop through a little hole onto the beams above the chariot you ride and you bypass most the dungeon right to the boss. You will miss the wolf boss though with this method
So the guide is great but I realize something. Everyone who's having a problem with the second chariot equip the opaline bubble tear to your flask of wondrous physick and drink it right before you run. That way even if you are late by just a fraction of a second and it hits you it'll knock you right into the shade with taking basically no damage
@@mars188 yeah, no kidding I think I died like 12 times in a row and one of the times before I did what I said above, I got hit into the area with the shade and had a sliver of health left which showed you could survive a hit from it. I was then quickly killed by the shade but then I thought about the fact that my potion mitigates almost all damage so I figured I'd try it, and it worked
@@keb8907 you know theres an area right before the shade that you can jump down to? its right at the end of the chariots path, just look down while in the safety hole and youll on both sides you can drop down. if you fight the enemy you get an epic surprise.
For those who didn’t know, there’s actually a secret weapon where instead of going to the end of the path of the first chariot and jumping left, you have to go THROUGH the lava in which rolling is the fastest way through unless they let you use quickstep because I hadn’t tried that and the weapon is called “Ringed Finger” EDIT: the path can also bring you straight to the boss as there’s a glovewort at the back right corner next to the lava that lets you drop down in front of the door
1:16 You see where the two holes are on the sides of the walkway you can actually skip the entire killing enemies part by dropping down onto the wood below it won’t kill you. I noticed that you could land on it saving yourself lots of time
A bit unrelated but holy moly, this game is unbelievably huge. I’m on PC and I’m just in awe of how large the game really is, it’s almost overwhelming coming from DS3. Anyways, keep up the good work!
I've never played a DS game before but I'm absolutely loving my experience with Elden Ring. I'm 70 hours in and it feels like I'm only halfway through the game because of how much stuff there is to do. Easily one of the best, if not, the best game I've played in years.
I remember getting passed the first chariot, then getting to a dead end saying "I'm alive! I'm ali-" just as I get mowed down, because I forgot it follows you as you progress.
In the first charior spot you can use a fire res liver and walk all the way to the back without worring about the charriot. There is a ring finger weapon on the left and a fall that takes you to the boss (Skip the whole dungon) Thanks to my GOD of a friend Ethen100 for risking his life exploring.
For the first part of this dungeon you can actually run past the 2 skeletons and jump across the lava to the right where the skeleton archer is before the chariot comes up.
You can skip a lot of this and just fall down the area right at 1:21 in the video and land on the wooden beam that lets you drop down onto the chariot. I fell by accident and when I landed on the beam and saw the empty chariot below me I heard that little "link opening a treasure chest in zelda" sound play in my head.
I wouldn’t have finished this if it weren’t for you. Worst dungeon in the game so far and I’m 50 hours in and level 70. So I’ve been to a few dungeons.
if you guys grab a dagger with quickstep you can slide through the lava past the first chariot and go right at the end, there will be a hole dropping you in front of the boss door.
I've died so many more times in this damn dungeon, trying to figure out where the hell to go, then from fighting the actual bosses. THANK YOU for this, seriously!! The Chariots in this place have highest kill count in the game I bet.
1:22 you can actually drop down from the hole here IF you hug the edge completely! I recommend the right hole (lol) because there's a shade creature on the left that deals a lot of bleed. EDIT : I used bloodhound step and I was wondering how ANYONE else would ever get down there.. This game always manages to surprise me.
I am so glad this dungeon is over! I can’t believe how many time I died. I finally did lava challenge from the comments and first time kill on boss. Relieved to the max!
A lil tip but u can phase through the chariots using the ash of war “raptor in the mists” didn’t die to a chariot once this way and didn’t need to hide in the side holes
Just did this entire area had about 60k runes on me. Died because I was falling of the back of the wheel because it was janky so I moved back onto it. Died from nothing hell yeah.
There’s a way easier and quicker way to do this. Once you get to the spot with the guys with crossbows. You need to roll through the all the lava and you can get the giant finger weapon at the bottom and a secret spot across to get to the boss room.
I completed this dungeon so many times using quickstep that I thought that was the intended solution. I would've never figured out the solution if it wasn't for elden ring reforged mod which changed lava to basically prevent you from quickstepping over it. I had to look for a guide and found this. Thank you so much for making this guide, it is informative, yet brief. Everything a good guide needs to be.
Omg. Thats messed up! Ive literally been trying to find the switch for near 2 hours . . . the devs have got jokes. I cant believe they would decide to pull the switch from this dungeon as if it hasnt been a part ov the recycled experience. SHAAAAAAAAAAAME!!!! 😅 This is my first play-through and I just got to the Haligtree but wanted to do a bit more before wrapping up the endgame portion. My character is ridiculously balanced, current level is 206. Ive not torched anything significant so if I can do the things to make Purgatory wondrous without literally immolating the Heavens, I will gladly move mountains . . . or doors without switches in this case.
Thanks for the guide just needed to see how to get there, you gotta run as soon as it passes you for the second time! Took a handful of runs to get the timing down. Got the nice armors tho!
Margit's shackle also disables the fire breathing pillar, and the Bloodhound's step ash of war is useful here as it enables you to dash through the lava. It can be gotten as a separate ash of war, but is also included in Bloodhound's claw. Bloodhound knight is the wolf-like enemy that drops the armor set.
I have been trying to find the bloodhound knight set since the very first time I fought Darawel with Blaidd. That was about a month before I got the game for my birthday when my friend let me play on a new save file. I now have more than 350 hours in the game. Thank you so much, and have a great day.
The chariot is designed with smart AI, it stops at our place whenever it sees us 😅. If use Raptor of the Must, it will not pass through, instead it stops right at our place and turns around and kills us immediately after Raptor Mist I-frame.
Yeah bit of a warning, just tried the whole thing and... If you move while on the chariot it may just kill you. Doesn't matter if you're near the wheels, if you move to the front even while cleary on top it still counts as "running you over." Don't ask how I know just, just don't do it.
I genuinely would have never figured this out had I not watched this. I even got to the rafters above but I would have never thought to jump on top of it.
Just too let y’all know, you can skip the entire dungeon if you keep going after the lava for the first chariot all the way to the end then turn right and in the lil cubby with the ghost wort there is a hidden ladder that leads you straight to the boss.
Something kept hitting my character while I was riding the chariot. It knocked me off a few times. I had to use Ritual Shield Talisman to survive and I finally made it to the bottom.
Alternatively, you can bypass that section at 1:21 by using bloodhound step. Go straight down into the lava and take a right i believe. You can also also margits shackle to turn off that firespout pillar
What kills me the most in this dungeon is at a certain junction (at [2:40] in the video) it looks like you can go left or right. If you go right you will assume there is some alcove at the top of the ramp to avoid the chariot, but there isn't and you will almost certainly die. It's also hard to retrieve your runes if you die there, since the chariot will kill you over and over - you just have to try and grab your runes and run back as much as you can, so that your runes are nearer the next time. But the best idea is: don't go right. Once you realize that the lava does very little damage, this dungeon is much easier. You can walk all the way down through the lava in the first long chariot hallway and the chariot will not follow you. That leads to a meme weapon and a shortcut to the boss room. This is useful, but the path shown in the video nets you two suits of armor (Gelmir Knight and Bloodhound Knight).
to skip everything you can jump from the first bridge (without lava) directly towards the corner and you will fall onto the beam- I uploaded a video for it
Dude I figured out everything except how to get past that very last part lmao I woulda never thought to jump on the the thing to get down there. Crazy puzzle to figure out. Thank god for TH-cam
Lets just say there is a reason why this video has over 1 million views. Also tip for any hero grave/catacomb, the margit's shackle (maybe mohg's would work too but never tested it out) is coded to do an invisible aoe (which only affects Margit/Morgott/Mohg). This aoe deals zero damage, but can activate and deactivate the flame traps, even through walls. It literally makes Auriza's hero grave a cakewalk(except for the boss).
I have to say I finally just beat it and it took me probably 5 hours to beat this was by far the hardest part of the game I’ve ever had to face. This killed me more times then the rest of the game combines absolutely rediculous dungeon
This dungeon got me so frustrated, that I had to stop and go back to gatefront, just to kill EVERYONE and EVERYTHING, several times, just to vent the frustration. So, yeah thank you for this vid!
For anyone like me who can't quite make it to the cemetery shade without getting squashed, try jumping, holding sprint, then when you land you will be able to sprint immediately without getting a run up.
You can actually drop down the first set of holes (first chariot with horse on) and land straight on the cross beams before jumping on the second chariot. Also there is a secret area if you role down the lava after the first chariot where you get items and skip the second chariot entirely.
Great guide. I like guides that are narrated like this. It’s hard enough to glance down to see the directions, let alone read text that’s giving directions… thank you
There's more in here. You missed out dodge rolling (dodge rolling allows you to move through the lava less hindered) down through the lava until you reach the end of the first carriage path (the first carriage won't move down there so you're perfectly save). Buff your fire resistance if need be. I didn't have to and easily got trough it with one +10 health potion and around 35 vigor. You'll find the ringed finger inside a chest down there. Now roll back through the lava but just head straight where you should see a glovewort you can loot. There's also an opening where the glovewort was that lets you drop down straight to the boss door.
*Bruh* you are a life saver... I had been doing it the hard way and wondering why there's not enough time to roll in the lava... Thank you for saving my sanity and patience lmao
I was beginning to wonder if I just really sucked at the game or if everyone struggled as badly as I did in this dungeon. Thanks to the video creator and everyone in the comments for tips and making me feel slightly less bad about myself.
Tip, this Is way More quick if you wanna fight the boss, you dont need to use that way 1:39 instead keep moving foward till you get to the wall and turn right (if you turn left you gonna get a special weapon) and there is going to be a little tunnel, use it and It will drop you directly to the boss in 4:53 if you wanna go faster in the lava and any lake use the bloodhound step ashes of war
I just started using the Grafted Greatsword. That thing really works a boss over good when you use it with the mimic. I always start whistling that tune about working on the railroad when we start wailing on something with the grafted.
You can jump directly down to that wooden X right above the cemetery shade from the first slope (right after the second refuge, where the thing turns around).
I legitimately have been stuck here for like 2 hours and I got all the way to the shade and tried to just roll through the lava. I never would have thought to jump on the chariot
I was reading a guide and it said to roll down the lava and never mentioned jumping on the chariot and then I watch this and I got it thank you so much
The moment you said "Notice there's no rider on the back of the chariot, that's because you're gonna ride it" my immediate reaction was flipping my laptop because 1. that's so cool, 2. why should I have noticed that?! Thank you regardless.
There is no lever to open the door at the end. You open it like a normal door. Also, there is a weapon in a chest, as well as a shortcut to the boss door, at the end of the first lava pathway. Let the chariot turn around one final time and make your way down to the bottom of the hill. The chariot will not follow you.

Do you think you could go back afterwards to get the armor set?
@@lancemiller3874 you definitely can
God damnit! I made it to the door just to go back and realise this xD
2 armor sets bloodhound and gelmir knight

You can easily skip to the boss room after dodging the first chariot, if you go into the lava area past where the first chariot ends its track, theres a room on the left with a "Ringed finger" greathammer, and to the right theres a small alcove with a grave glowart and a small ledge that if you drop down twice, drops you right in front of the boss room door.

At the end of the dungeon you realise... All this for a Deathroot.
And 2 complete sets of armor and the Bloodhound Flo summons. So yeah, it's a good payout.
The death root I collected here after dying a thousand times was enough to get me absolutely mopped by gurranq when I went back up
Fk thought you were lying lol
There’s two sets of dope armour though
Bloodhound summon is weak. I already had the mimic and black knife tiche so yeah waste of time.

You can avoid the cemetary shade by quickly dropping down to the ledge instead of ducking into the alcove
tried it and the ledge is so small that i died into the abyss. So annoying.

😂😂😂 sameeee
I can barely make it to the point where you jump on the chariot. But of course I missed.
4hours? gotta pump those numbers up HAHAHA I was stuck for half a day
Same. worst area so far for me. Sorceries are pretty tough against that boss as well but I managed it using summons as distraction.

Would I miss anything important?
Thank you so much, finally entered the boss room after this guide! The chariots thingys are the real end game bosses!
For the first part of this dungeon you can actually run past the 2 skeletons and jump across the lava to the right where the skeleton archer is before the chariot comes up.

Also the boss explains why there are so many dang wolves by the dungeon entrance.
"Mom, I want a Wolf Warrior!"

But the best idea is: don't go right.
Once you realize that the lava does very little damage, this dungeon is much easier. You can walk all the way down through the lava in the first long chariot hallway and the chariot will not follow you. That leads to a meme weapon and a shortcut to the boss room. This is useful, but the path shown in the video nets you two suits of armor (Gelmir Knight and Bloodhound Knight).
Thanks for this. I was wondering why that 2nd chariot stopped for a while at the top because its waiting for you to jump on it lol
to skip everything you can jump from the first bridge (without lava) directly towards the corner and you will fall onto the beam- I uploaded a video for it
The only guy who actually explained it
I’ve never had eternal beef with an inanimate object before. Until now.
Dude I figured out everything except how to get past that very last part lmao I woulda never thought to jump on the the thing to get down there. Crazy puzzle to figure out. Thank god for TH-cam
Noobs:ride the enemy
Pros:runs down through the lava
I'm a grown ass man and these fucking dungeons damn near bring me to tears
Lets just say there is a reason why this video has over 1 million views. Also tip for any hero grave/catacomb, the margit's shackle (maybe mohg's would work too but never tested it out) is coded to do an invisible aoe (which only affects Margit/Morgott/Mohg). This aoe deals zero damage, but can activate and deactivate the flame traps, even through walls. It literally makes Auriza's hero grave a cakewalk(except for the boss).
Finally a narrated version and not just someone playing through it and calling it a "guide".
I have to say I finally just beat it and it took me probably 5 hours to beat this was by far the hardest part of the game I’ve ever had to face. This killed me more times then the rest of the game combines absolutely rediculous dungeon
This dungeon got me so frustrated, that I had to stop and go back to gatefront, just to kill EVERYONE and EVERYTHING, several times, just to vent the frustration.
So, yeah thank you for this vid!
For anyone like me who can't quite make it to the cemetery shade without getting squashed, try jumping, holding sprint, then when you land you will be able to sprint immediately without getting a run up.
You can actually drop down the first set of holes (first chariot with horse on) and land straight on the cross beams before jumping on the second chariot. Also there is a secret area if you role down the lava after the first chariot where you get items and skip the second chariot entirely.
Literally all I needed to know was the thumbnail, idk how that didn't click for me. Thanks man
Great guide. I like guides that are narrated like this. It’s hard enough to glance down to see the directions, let alone read text that’s giving directions… thank you
are you kidding me. i just ran through the lava and had no crimson flasks left for the boss
Dropping down onto that chariot is the dodgiest thing ever! If you mistime it by even a millisecond you die.
There's more in here. You missed out dodge rolling (dodge rolling allows you to move through the lava less hindered) down through the lava until you reach the end of the first carriage path (the first carriage won't move down there so you're perfectly save). Buff your fire resistance if need be. I didn't have to and easily got trough it with one +10 health potion and around 35 vigor. You'll find the ringed finger inside a chest down there. Now roll back through the lava but just head straight where you should see a glovewort you can loot. There's also an opening where the glovewort was that lets you drop down straight to the boss door.
Lmao when you started jumping in the lava 🤣 😂
You have great content and a great narration, I hope your channel grows
Thank you for posting stuff like this. I was In this cave, and I realized I didn't fight a boss yet. Couldn't progress.
I've been down here for a few hours and even though I noticed the empty chariot I don't think I would have ever made the connection. Thanks man!
Great video...these walk throughs are what I look up when I first visit this place, then realize yea I'm all set for that loot. Thanks!
When I saw that chariot approaching it gave me flashbacks in the secret area in Fringefolk hero's Grace
*Bruh* you are a life saver... I had been doing it the hard way and wondering why there's not enough time to roll in the lava... Thank you for saving my sanity and patience lmao
I love riding the chariot and going to turn around not even close the the wheels and taking damage, then dying in the lava
Pro tips: quickstep is actually the best way trough lava, close second is simply backstepping
I was beginning to wonder if I just really sucked at the game or if everyone struggled as badly as I did in this dungeon. Thanks to the video creator and everyone in the comments for tips and making me feel slightly less bad about myself.
I'm so pissed. Didn't even think about riding the darn thing. Many thanks man
Tip, this Is way More quick if you wanna fight the boss, you dont need to use that way 1:39 instead keep moving foward till you get to the wall and turn right (if you turn left you gonna get a special weapon) and there is going to be a little tunnel, use it and It will drop you directly to the boss in 4:53 if you wanna go faster in the lava and any lake use the bloodhound step ashes of war
I just started using the Grafted Greatsword. That thing really works a boss over good when you use it with the mimic. I always start whistling that tune about working on the railroad when we start wailing on something with the grafted.
You can jump directly down to that wooden X right above the cemetery shade from the first slope (right after the second refuge, where the thing turns around).
I legitimately have been stuck here for like 2 hours and I got all the way to the shade and tried to just roll through the lava. I never would have thought to jump on the chariot
I was reading a guide and it said to roll down the lava and never mentioned jumping on the chariot and then I watch this and I got it thank you so much
Straight to the point and no unneeded info, thank you.
You're welcome!
wow...i would have never thought of that - the riding the chariot. thanks so much
Thanks. I was stuck for 2 days trying to figure out how to get through. Had no idea to ride it. Would have never figured it out.
Solid video. Clean and to the point. Thank you for your time I hope this channel is making you some bread
Spent hours trying to walk the lava, had killed the shade and bloodhound repeatedly, but didn't realize you could ride the chariot.
The moment you said "Notice there's no rider on the back of the chariot, that's because you're gonna ride it" my immediate reaction was flipping my laptop because 1. that's so cool, 2. why should I have noticed that?!
Thank you regardless.
Solid guide. Clear and concise. There's some treasure for those of you that wish to explore.
