East Liurnia and Lower Ainsel River

Up the eastern landmass to the Church of Vows and the Crystal Tunnel, along the Bellum Highway to the burning village, then down the well to the Ainsel River.

East Liurnia suits level 50 to 60 with a weapon at about +4 to +6. Start at the south end of the eastern landmass and work north: the Ainsel River comes last, at the same level.

About this guide

Expect about 230 hours over three runs, in a game where bosses take practice. This route uses no save backups. Run 1 collects everything in the base game and Shadow of the Erdtree, and takes about 170 of those hours. NG+ (about 40) and NG++ (about 20) are shorter runs for the other two endings and the other quest branches, with tougher enemies and some bosses to beat again for remembrance trades. Random drops and free-choice NPC kills never count toward 100%.
