This sees a massive crack in the centre of the map open up, with lava bubbling at the bottom and massive explosions shaking the fabric of Limgrave.<\/p>\n<p>The reward waiting for players who manage to reach the bottom is a special smithing table, which lets players turn any one of their weapons into a legendary weapon. But with only limited time, numerous bosses waiting for you on the way down, and a massive Magma Wyrm ready to cut you in half, it can be a pretty tricky event to complete.<\/p>\n<p>The solution to this? Yeeting yourself off a nearby cliff and praying you land on a rock and don&#8217;t just drown in the rivers of lava.<\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube-video\" data-nosnippet >\n<div class=\"video-aspect-box\"><iframe data-lazy-priority=\"low\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2kW8fvZzHYk\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>For those playing as <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/rpg\/elden-ring-nightreign-ironeye-build-guide-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ironyeye<\/a>, this is made slightly easier by his skill which lets him lunge forward. YouTuber <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/shorts\/2kW8fvZzHYk\" target=\"_blank\">eldencafor shared a shortcut<\/a> which sees Ironeye jump off the cliff on the side of the Church near two Thorn Sorcerers. You need to have a quick cooldown on your skill, or have a relic that grants +1 skill use, as you need to lunge twice to make it to solid ground. But for those of us without a lunge and a bow, there&#8217;s another, more deadly, way of getting to the bottom.<\/p>\n<p>If you go to the flight tree located at the north of the crater (near where the second-day boss usually spawns) catch an eagle over the lava pit, and then jump off just before it crosses over land, you can make it to the Magma Wyrm boss if you keep falling forward.<\/p>\n<p>Now let me warn anyone who attempts this, my friends and I did this in a moment of panic and weakness when we realised there wouldn&#8217;t be enough time to reach the bottom of the Crater by going the usual route. There&#8217;s also a lot that can go wrong.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2560px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"NtgPibeHBXAqq9Z9aLy7XA\" name=\"elden-ring-nightreign-extraction-3\" alt=\"Elden Ring Nightreign - Ironeye on a hawk in a volcano\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/i-tried-out-some-of-elden-ring-nightreigns-player-made-shortcuts-for-the-crater-event-and-all-i-got-was-fried-in-lava-1.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: FromSoftware)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you mistime the drop, you either land on the cliff near the Black Blade Kindred or fall straight into the lava. Also, if you accidentally hit R3, the eagle will just drop you into the abyss. The first time we attempted this, one of my friends had an eagle drop him dead in the middle of the Crater despite him apparently not touching anything, this then freaked my other teammate out\u2014who tried to bail and also fell into the lava, which then confused me, and believe it or not? Straight into the lava I went.<\/p>\n<p>Since then I&#8217;ve managed to pull this little trick off, but I did so with randoms, which ended up causing the same amount of chaos as my teammates couldn&#8217;t figure out how I went from the cliff edge down to the bottom of the other side of the Crater.<\/p>\n<p>So for now, I think the only Crater skip I&#8217;ll be sticking to is this relatively easy and safe one <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Nightreign\/comments\/1l9fwx5\/found_a_crater_shifting_earth_skip_that_nobody\/\" target=\"_blank\">shared by That-Communication48<\/a> which takes you to the fog wall by the Fire Monks and Fire Prelate. It&#8217;ll shave off a few minutes and you&#8217;ll still get some levels and a weapon after defeating these guys, so it&#8217;s not a total waste of precious seconds.
