Elden Ring — How to Unlock Crafting?

While not absolutely necessary, crafting can come in really handy in Elden Ring. Throughout the entirety of the game, the player will come across materials needed for crafting different items out in the world. These items, however, cannot be used until Crafting is unlocked. In this Elden Ring guide, we have detailed all there is to know about how unlock Crafting.

Elden Ring Unlock Crafting

Crafting in Elden Ring can be unlocked from the very beginning of the game. After spawning in, continue to progress through the game until the Site of Grace at the First Step — there should be a boss on the horseback visible from the distance.

There is no need to engage the boss. All that the player needs to do is to travel slight left from where the boss, Tree Sentinel, is and inside a remains of a church named Church of Elleh in Limgrave, just north of the Site of Grace. Once inside the church, there should be an NPC sitting there — Merchant Kale.

Now all that the player needs to do is to speak to the merchant and purchase an item called the Crafting Kit. This is the item that must be purchased in order to unlock the ability to craft different items in Elden Ring. Other than this, he also sells the initial cookbooks needed for various recipes. Purchasing the Crafting Kit should cost you 300 Runes which are not hard to come by even during this early in the game.

For people who are unable to buy it, there should be a dozen or so enemies patrolling the nearby area. Farming them should net enough Runes for the player to be able to afford the Crafting Kit. Alternatively, you can also sell some useless items to earn some Runes. As mentioned earlier, while not required, there are quite a lot of useful items that the player can acquire through crafting.

Gathering Materials

Gathering materials is an important aspect of crafting in Elden Ring. Whether you are looting corpses or harvesting the environment, there are a ton of materials that you can use to craft different items.

This is all we have got in how to unlock crafting in Elden Ring. For more help on the game, be sure to check out our detailed Elden Ring wiki page.
