Where to find Devonia’s Hammer in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

For Strength builds, bigger usually is always better. And there are few hammers bigger than Devonia’s Hammer in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. I’ll show you how to find the weapon, but you should prepare for a scrap when you arrive.

Devonia’s Hammer is wielded by the Crucible Knight Devonia in the Ancient Ruins of Rauh, and they’re not giving it up without a fight.

Devonia’s Hammer location in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

To find Devonia’s Hammer, you’ll first need to clear the Shadow Keep and head west past the Viaduct to the Ancient Ruins of Rauh. Starting at the ‘Viaduct Minor Tower’ Site of Grace, head right on Torrent and down into the ancient structure.

Keep descending, making your way past two large, ornate doors. You’ll know you’re heading in the right direction when you enter a room with Serpent Snails hanging about.

Look for a Spiritspring nearby and use it to descend further. Once you land, you’ll have two directions you can go. One direction leads you down a tunnel, while another takes you left past the image of a cloaked person carved into a stone wall. Take the path left from the carving.

The path leads you down a flooded passageway.

Keep moving until you reach an open area. There, standing guard nearby, is the Crucible Knight Devonia deep in thought.

Devonia will aggro on you as you approach. You can take this fight on Torrent, so use your speed to your advantage with hit-and-run strikes.

Devonia attacks slowly, so you should be able to take them down without receiving too much damage. But watch out for Devonia’s special attack. When you see them twirling the Hammer above their head, run away to avoid the area attack.

When Devonia is defeated, they drop Devonia’s Hammer and the Crucible Hammer-Helm.

Devonia’s Hammer specs

Devonia’s Hammer is a Colossal Great Hammer that scales with Strength, Dexterity, and Faith. It leans more toward Strength, naturally, as it is a massive piece of metal attached to a stick.

Its Ashes of War ability is Devonia’s Vortex. Activating it causes you to twirl the hammer above your head before smashing it down in front of you, causing a golden explosion. Charging the attack makes the strike more powerful.

Here are the specs:

• Attack Power (Strike)
  • Physical: 147
  • Holy: 44
• Attribute Scaling
  • Str: C
  • Dex: E
  • Fai: D
• Guarded Damage Negation
  • Physical: 73.0
  • Magic:
  • Fire:
  • Lightning:
  • Holy:
  • Guard Boost:
• Attributes Required
  • Str: 30
  • Dex: 13
  • Fai: 19

Since you can wield the weapon with both hands, I suggest you track down the Two-Handed Sword Talisman to boost its attack power.
