The Taylew's Ruined Forge dungeon is filled with numerous smithing stones, allowing you to replenish your stock for weapon upgrades. Additionally, you can obtain the Taylew the Golem Smith spirit summon here.
This guide will take you through the dungeon so you can gather all possible resources and items.
How to Reach Taylew's Ruined Forge
To reach Taylew's Ruined Forge, head north from the Site of Grace at Rauh Ruins. Pass by Messmer’s soldiers until you see a stone structure resembling those found in other forges scattered throughout the Land of Shadow. Inside this structure is the entrance to Taylew's Ruined Forge.
Beginning of Taylew's Ruined Forge
Proceed through the tunnel to the Site of Grace and activate it so you can respawn here if you die. Continue to the collapsed railing to pick up a Shadow Realm Rune [3]. To the left, there will be a passage with a message on the floor: “Hit them where they’re weakest”.
Go down the stairs and cross the metal bridge. A lava blob will drop from the ceiling. Kill it or bypass it by descending the ladder or simply jumping down ahead. Pick up Smithing Stone [1] and proceed further. Jump over the gap and turn left. A stone giant will attack you here. Defeat the enemy and pick up a Gas Stone, Smithing Stone [1], [4], and Smithscript Axe.
Return to the gap you jumped over and descend. You’ll find Smithing Stone [1] and [4] there. Cross the giant overhead pipe to the other side. Pick up Smithing Stone [1], [5], and Gas Stone. To the left, a lava blob will fall from the ceiling, and in the corner, you can find the Smithscript Greathammer.
How to Obtain the Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone
Climb onto the giant metal pipe and walk upwards. Jump to the balcony on the left. Here you’ll have to deal with two stone giants and pick up Smithing Stone from them. On a corpse to the left, pick up the Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone.
Continuing Through Taylew's Ruined Forge
In the same location near the charred remains by the wall, collect Smithing Stone [1], [4], and Gas Stone. By the metal bridge on the right, there will be a corpse, from which you can pick up five more Smithing Stone [5]. Optionally, you can descend under the bridge and kill several lava blobs.
Jump onto the giant pipe, climb a bit higher, and jump to the balcony on the right. First, go through the passage on the right. Descend the stairs and near the charred remains, pick up Smithing Stone [4], [6], and Somber Smithing Stone [8].
Climb back up and head for the door on the left. Walk through the corridor and climb the collapsed column. Kill the stone giant and lava crawling monster. Pick up Smithing Stone [4], [6], and the Smithscript Shield. Descend and kill a couple more enemies to gather another set of resources: Smithing Stone [1], [4], [5], and Gas Stone.
Return to the balcony by the pipe. Look down along the railings and jump down, where you’ll have to defeat two more lava monsters. Before entering the corridor, pick up Smithing Stone [4] and proceed further.
How to Lower the Pipe
To the left, you’ll see a corpse with three Smithing Stone [8]. Turn left and then climb the ladder. Kill a couple of lava monsters, turn around, and jump over the gap to the other platform, killing another lava crawler and stone giant. Pick up Smithing Stone [2], [5], [6], Gas Stone, and Somber Smithing Stone [3].
Turn around, climb the stairs, and pick up Smithing Stone [6] near the charred pile. After this, pull the lever. Descend to the platform nearby, then to the balcony you’ve visited before. Go straight, descending the stairs. Reach the end of the room and jump onto the lowered pipe.
How to Obtain Taylew the Golem Smith and Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone
Climb up the pipe and jump to the left balcony. Pick up the Gas Stone and Smithing Stone [6] under the wall opposite. Climb the ladder. Ahead, you’ll see an altar. Interact with it to obtain Taylew the Golem Smith and the Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone.
Use the portal that appears nearby, and it will transport you to the dungeon’s entrance. This concludes your journey through Taylew's Ruined Forge, and you will have collected all the possible items from it.
