How To Get Furnace Visages In Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree
Furnace Visages Are Rare According To Their In-Game Item Description
The first thing players will need to do in order to craft anything with Furnace Visages is get their hands on some. While these can be found in several places,the most reliable source of the item is as a drop fromShadow of the Erdtree’snew field boss, Furnace Golems. It won’t take long for players to find their first Furnace Golem, as it appears early on in the Gravesite Plain, the very first area visited inShadow of the Erdtree’s map. These creatures are also massive and perpetually on fire, making them difficult to miss.
Players will likely want to be mounted when they face Furnace Golems, as they will unleash some devastating area-of-effect attacks that are harder to dodge on foot. Players might also want to avoid spending too much time in front of the Golem, as they do have an instant-kill grab attack where they sweep up the player and dump them in their fiery basket.Once players defeat a Furnace Golem, players will receive a Furnace Visageas a reward.
Furnace Visages Can Be Used To Create A Hefty Furnace Pots
New Throwing Item, Requires A Greater Potentate’s Cookbook
Players can use their newly acquired Furnace Visages to create a thrown weapon called a Hefty Furnace Pot. When thrown, the pot creates a burst of flames that can damage enemies.Hefty Furnace Pots are extremely effective against Furnace Golems, as players can do massive amounts of damage by tossing one into their flaming baskets.
Throwing a Hefty Furnace Pot into a Furnace Golem’s basket is an especially useful tactic against the one in Charo’s Hidden Grave, which has armored legs. A cliff nearby will give players the elevation needed.
to craft a Hefty Furnace Pot, players will need two Redflesh Mushrooms (a type of ingredient that can be found in the Land of Shadow), two Embers of Messmer, and one Furnace Visage.Players will also need to find Greater Potentate’s Cookbook [2]to get the recipe for making a Hefty Furnace Pot. This item is located in the Run-Down Traveler’s Rest, which is found north of the Three-Path Cross Site of Grace and underneath the Ellac Greatbridge.
Hefty Furnace pots will makeShadow of the Erdtreea bit less intimidating, as they give players a great way to defend themselves against the intimidating Furnace Golems. Furnace Visages at first seem to be in short supply, but anyone adequately exploring the Land of Shadow will eventually accumulate enough to craft a steady supply of Hefty Furnace Pots.Elden Ringplayers will likely also find other great uses for these items once they have had more time to experiment with theShadow of the ErdtreeDLC.

Guided by the enigmatic Miquella, they face the terrifying Messmer the Impaler and uncover the dark secrets shrouded beneath the Erdtree’s influence, featuring new weapons, magic, and challenges.
