Entering the Finger Ruins of Rhia or Dheo in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree can be one of the most awkward moments the game has to offer. And when you reach the center and can’t even ring the bell, it hurts even more. If you’re looking to ring the Finger Ruins bell in Elden Ring, we can help.

To ring the bell in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, you must first meet Count Ymir, a wizard in the Cathedral of Manus Metyr. He will give you the Hole-Laden Necklace, a powerful spell that will allow you to ring the Finger bells in the Finger Ruins. Go to the first ruin in the southeast of the map and go to where the fingers form a circle and ring the bell there. Then do the same with the next two ruins.

Ymir is a crucial part of the ringing process. Without the Hole-Laden Necklace, you won’t be able to interact with any of the three bells in the ruins, even if you visit them beforehand. One of the ruins is inaccessible until you interact with Ymir, so you’ll definitely want to visit the Count if you want to complete this quest. You can find the Count by moving through the Moorth Ruins and following the path to the northeast. There are no boss fights or anything in the way, though you may want to take out the Furnace Golem.

Once you have the necklace, you can interact with any of them you want. Ymir will point you to the next one for his quest, but you could theoretically interact with Rhia's or Dheo's bell first. To complete Ymir's quest, we recommend playing it safe and going to the southeastern ruins first, going back to Ymir, and then going back to the northeastern ruins.
