15 Runes Farming Routes Based on Enemy Spawn Loops in Elden Ring

Farming runes efficiently in Elden Ring is key to leveling up and progressing smoothly, especially when preparing for the game’s more brutal encounters. While some players hunt for bosses or scour treasure chests, many veterans know the best rune income often comes from tight farming loops centered on specific enemy spawns. These routes take advantage of predictable respawns, fast travel points, and terrain layout to maximize your rune haul per minute.

Here are 15 rune farming routes optimized around enemy spawn loops, ideal for early- to late-game players looking to farm without grinding bosses repeatedly. Whether you're a new Tarnished or a seasoned NG+ invader, these loops can fuel your build with minimal downtime.

And yes, if you're in a rush or testing experimental builds, you might consider sourcing cheap elden ring runes or choosing to buy Elden Ring Items to accelerate your progress.

1. Mohgwyn Palace – Albinauric Red Swamp Loop

Possibly the most infamous farming spot in the game, this route focuses on a tight cluster of Albinauric enemies that drop thousands of runes each. Easily cleared with a sweeping AoE spell or weapon art.

2. Greyoll’s Dragonbarrow – Dragon Communion Loop

Head to the Fort Faroth site of grace and target the sleeping dragons. The smaller ones can be slain in a loop before they respawn, and the massive Greyoll grants a large sum if killed cleverly.

3. Windmill Pastures – Dancing Nobles Loop

These enemies go down with little resistance and respawn quickly. You can loop the area with AoE attacks for thousands of runes in under a minute.

4. Elphael, Brace of the Haligtree – Haligtree Knights Loop

Tough enemies, but each knight yields a hefty rune payout. Use stealth or ranged options to optimize your loop without dying repeatedly.

5. Caelid Highway – Frenzied Dogs and Soldiers Loop

Fast, aggressive enemies with relatively low health. AoE ashes of war make short work of them, and their fast respawn makes this a high-yield, short-circuit loop.

6. Sealed Tunnel – Miner Loop

The miners drop decent runes and crafting materials. They’re slow and often unaware of your presence, allowing for backstab loops if you're cautious.

7. Nokron Eternal City – Silver Tear Loop

These shapeshifting enemies offer a solid rune return and are densely packed. Use strong area denial spells to take them down before they transform.

8. Ordina, Liturgical Town – Spirit Soldiers Loop

These ghosts yield surprising rune totals. You can do fast laps through the town using wide-range weapons like Whips or Halberds.

9. Altus Plateau – Leyndell Knights Loop

In the outskirts of Leyndell, these patrolling knights are strong but reward heavy rune drops. Defeat them using guard counters or ranged magic and rest at a nearby grace.

10. Mountaintops of the Giants – Fire Monk Loop

Farm the patrolling Fire Monks outside the Giants’ Gravepost site of grace. They’re vulnerable to frost and bleed, and can be kited one by one for a safe loop.

11. Siofra River – Ancestral Followers Loop

These enemies drop moderate runes and are ideal for early-game rune farming. Pair with rune-boosting talismans or consumables to increase efficiency.

12. Castle Sol – Cleanrot Knights Loop

Two Cleanrot Knights guard the area near the lift. After defeating them, rest and repeat. The loop is tight and efficient with high damage builds.

13. Academy of Raya Lucaria – Scholar Loop

The common magic scholars are fragile and cluster tightly in lecture halls. Perfect for Intelligence builds with AoE sorceries like Glintstone Arc.

14. Lake of Rot – Pest and Basilisk Loop

With the right resistances, this region becomes a profitable farm zone. AoE fire attacks clear large groups while earning decent rune returns.

15. Stormveil Castle – Soldier and Exile Loop

Great for early game. Once cleared of the ballista threat, you can loop through the main gate area and kill soldiers and exiles quickly with light weapons or spells.

Bonus Farming Tip:

For optimal returns, equip rune-boosting gear like the Gold Scarab and use Gold-Pickled Fowl Foot before each loop. Pairing this with one of the above routes can increase your farming efficiency significantly.

As always, if time is short or your build needs specific enhancements, many players choose to buy Elden Ring Items or go for cheap elden ring runes to save time and jump straight into the fun parts of build experimentation.

Each of these routes remains viable through multiple patches, and most can be executed with minimal risk once you're familiar with enemy patterns. Whether you're prepping for PvP or pushing into NG+, a solid rune farming loop is essential to keeping your build sharp.
