Furnace Golems, powerful elite foes found in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, present a significant challenge to defeat. However, they possess a peculiar vulnerability that may go unnoticed.
Furnace Golems can be found in nearly all of the main regions featured in the DLC. Their towering stature makes them impossible to overlook, and their formidable strength makes them a challenging opponent to defeat. They possess robust defenses, are difficult to navigate around, and utilize sweeping attacks that can swiftly end your quest with just two strikes.
While fighting against them, many players have chosen to focus on attacking their heels until they stumble, rendering them susceptible to a powerful critical strike. Nevertheless, disrupting their balance can be a lengthy process and one must also avoid their destructive AoE attacks in the process.
By engaging in some exploration, you can discover an easier method to deplete their health. Simply make your way to the main entrance of the Shadow Keep and inspect the tents located on the fort’s exterior walls. After some searching, you will come across a note revealing the Furnace Golem’s Achilles heel. It seems that these fiery giants can be defeated by utilizing fire against them.
To defeat the Golem, simply create Hefty Fire Pots and throw them into the large furnace. This will cause significant damage and may even cause the Golem to become staggered. The number of Fire Pots needed to defeat the Golem will depend on the strength of your Scadutree Blessings, with it taking anywhere from 6 to 7 Fire Pots to bring it down.

In order to begin throwing pots into the furnace, it is necessary to locate a sufficiently elevated position that offers a clear sightline to the desired target. Another option is to weaken the golem until it topples over, and then hurl the Fire Pot from a closer distance. If you have been facing difficulties with these massive foes, this method is definitely worth attempting.
To face the numerous formidable foes in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, players will encounter not just Furnace Golems but a variety of challenging enemies. To improve their chances in battles against these enemies, players can acquire the Armor of Solitude and seek out the most powerful weapons available in the early stages of the game.
