Upgrading early-game weapons in the Lands Between is essential for surviving tough boss encounters and advancing through difficult regions. Acquiring the Smithing-Stone Miner's Bell Bearing 1 allows players to purchase unlimited tier-one and tier-two upgrade materials directly from the Twin Maiden Husks at Roundtable Hold. This key item drastically reduces the time spent searching for upgrade resources across the open world.
Where to Find the Raya Lucaria Crystal Tunnel
The Smithing-Stone Miner's Bell Bearing 1 is located within the Raya Lucaria Crystal Tunnel in the Liurnia of the Lakes region. Players can reach this underground site by traveling along the eastern shores of the sunken lake. The entrance is carved into the cliffside northeast of the Academy of Raya Lucaria.
Before venturing into the cavern, players should prepare for tight corridors filled with hostile miners and glintstone sorcerers. Utilizing strike damage weapons can make defeating the sturdy enemies inside significantly easier. Magic users can also clear the area comfortably from a distance.
Defeating the Crystalian Boss
To claim the bell bearing, players must navigate through the entire dungeon and face the final boss, a Crystalian wielding a ringblade. This enemy possesses extremely high physical defense until its stance is broken. Blunt weapons or heavy jump attacks are highly effective at breaking its posture.
Once defeated, the boss drops the key item directly into the player's inventory. The encounter serves as a quick test of combat strategy before rewarding players with permanent access to essential crafting materials.
How to Use the Bell Bearing at Roundtable Hold
After acquiring the item, players should travel to Roundtable Hold and speak with the Twin Maiden Husks. Selecting the option to offer a bell bearing permanently updates their shop inventory.
Players can then purchase unlimited Smithing Stone 1 and Smithing Stone 2 materials using runes. This unlocks seamless weapon upgrades up to level six, allowing players to experiment with different playstyles and armaments effortlessly.
