U4GM - 7 Ways to Stay Consistent in Daily Runes Farming in Elden Ring
Farming Elden Ring runes can feel like a grind, especially if you're aiming to level up or purchase high-tier gear. As someone who has spent hundreds of hours exploring the Lands Between, I’ve learned that staying consistent is the key to efficient rune farming. Whether you’re a veteran or a new Tarnished, these seven strategies will help you maintain a daily routine that keeps your rune count rising.
1. Set a Daily Farming Schedule
One of the most effective ways to stay consistent is to carve out a specific time each day for rune farming. I usually farm for about 30–45 minutes right after logging in. This keeps it from feeling like a chore and fits easily into a busy schedule. Consistency turns farming into a habit, not a task.
2. Use Efficient Farming Locations
There are dozens of places to farm runes, but not all are created equal. The best early-to-mid-game farming spot is the Mohgwyn Palace area, specifically near the Palace Approach Ledge-Road Site of Grace. With a powerful build, I consistently earn over 40,000 runes in just a few minutes there. Efficient spots save time and make farming feel rewarding.
3. Equip Rune-Boosting Gear
Items like the Gold Scarab talisman can significantly increase rune drops. From my experience, pairing this with Gold-Pickled Fowl Foot consumables boosts my rune yield by 30–50%. It’s these small multipliers that really add up over time. Don’t overlook them if you’re farming daily.
4. Keep a Farming Build Ready
I keep a dedicated farming build equipped with area-of-effect (AoE) skills like "Comet Azur" or “Wave of Gold.” These abilities clear mobs quickly and efficiently. Swapping gear just for farming may sound tedious, but it saves more time than you might think and makes the whole process smoother.
5. Mix It with Exploration
Farming doesn’t always have to be repetitive. Sometimes I farm while exploring late-game zones or cleaning up dungeons. This keeps the game fun while still stacking runes. It’s especially useful if you're tired of repeating the same loop over and over.
6. Track Your Progress
I keep a small notepad where I jot down how many runes I earn daily and what locations I used. It might seem excessive, but tracking this helped me identify my most effective farming spots and builds. It also keeps me motivated—seeing those numbers rise gives a sense of progress.
7. Consider All Your Options: Can You Buy Runes for Elden Ring?
Some players wonder, can you buy runes for Elden Ring? The answer is yes—but be cautious. While there are third-party sellers, including platforms like U4GM, where players can buy runes, this method can violate FromSoftware’s terms of service. Personally, I prefer earning my runes the traditional way, but I understand why some might turn to buying if they’re short on time. If you go this route, make sure the seller is reputable to avoid account penalties or scams.
