This has naturally led to more interesting combinations as players try to take down the likes of Commander Gaius and other bosses in Elden Ring.

Glovewort Crystal Tear Effects & Uses

Glovewort Crystal Tear Effects & Uses Shadow of the Erdtree

A crystal tear formed slowly over the ages, where the scattered sap of the Scadutree pools deep within the furnace golems.

Can be mixed in the Flask of Wondrous Physick.

The resulting concoction temporarily increases the attack power of spirits.

The Glovewort Crystal Tear is a new Shadow of the Erdtree Crystal Tear that enhances the attack of spirits when consumed in your Flask of Wondrous Physick. The effect is temporary and lasts for only a short while, but with the help of Revered Spirit Ashes and its buffs to your favorite Spirit Ashes, having this additional layer of improvement can make a world of difference when fighting more difficult opponents.

A good way to make use of this particular Crystal Tear is to summon your best Spirit Ash into battle, and make sure to take advantage of any other golden summon signs in the area to bring in more allies, before consuming the physick. If the enemy is focusing on you at this point, that makes it even better, as your Spirit Ash summon in Elden Ring can then make use of its enhanced attack power to deal more damage to your intended target. Even with its short duration, the added damage is well worth having, especially if the boss has little health left.

Where To Find Glovewort Crystal Tear Location

Where To Find Glovewort Crystal Tear Location Shadow of the Erdtree

To get the Glovewort Crystal Tear in Shadow of the Erdtree, you must first make your way over to Charo's Hidden Grave, a region sandwiched between the starting area of Gravesite Plain and the Cerulean Coast below. Start your journey at the Castle Front Site of Grace by Castle Ensis and go southeast, following the path leading up to the Pillar Path Cross Site of Grace.

Follow along, and you will reach the Dragon's Pit, where a literal leap of faith is required for players to land at the foot of the Jagged Peak area. Once you spot a sleeping dragon that can be fought or avoided, go to the right and continue to the Grand Altar of Dragon Communion. Climb over the dragon's body and its outstretched leg, and the path will lead you to Charo's Hidden Grave.

The Furnace Golem in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree

Once you start seeing fields of crimson flowers, you are in the right place. Now start heading west and seek out the Furnace Golem that is making a ruckus. Defeating the Furnace Golem here will reward players with the Glovewort Crystal Tear, which can then be put to good use when using Spirit Ash summons.

With the Furnace Golem's weak point being the face, and it being too high for players to use their Hefty Fire Pots and Furnace Pots to do damage, your best bet is to ride on Torrent and target the legs of the Furnace Golem.

This will allow you to whittle away at its health while causing Poise damage, eventually bringing the giant down. Get to its face to unleash a critical hit, and repeat the process, all while avoiding its stomps and swipes.
