Just like in Elden Ring's base game, its Shadow of the Erdtree DLC brings a whole new host of Crystal Tears to the table that let you alter the effects of your Flask of Wondrous Physick. We're still working out where they rank in our list of Elden Ring's best Crystal Tears, but to help you track them down, we've put together this guide on where to find every new Crystal Tear location in Shadow of the Erdtree.

The somewhat bad news about tracking down Shadow of the Erdtree's new Crystal Tears is that they're all rewards for beating the Furnace Golems - the fearsome fire giants that roam Shadow of the Erdtree's map out in the open. There are 8 Furnance Golems in total in Shadow of the Erdtree, but at least you can be safe in the knowledge that there's a substantial reward waiting at the end of the fight: a brand-new Crystal Tear for your collection. So read on below to learn where all the new Crystal Tear locations are in Shadow of the Erdtree.

Location: Dropped by the Furnace Golem blocking the entrance to the Ruins of Unte. It will only come alive when you throw a Hefty Furnace Pot into its head (so we'd recommend defeating the Oil-Soaked Tear golem first, before tackling this one, otherwise you'll find yourself facing two Furnace Golems at once).

Effect: Enhances attacks at the cost of HP.

Viridian Hidden Tear location
