Unlocking Bell Bearings in Elden Ring is an essential part of maximizing your character’s potential, especially when you're looking to expand your purchasing options with the Twin Maiden Husks. As someone who has spent hundreds of hours exploring the Lands Between, I can confidently say that tracking down each Bell Bearing adds significant convenience and power to your journey. Whether you're farming materials, upgrading weapons, or stocking up on consumables, Bell Bearings offer an efficient route—especially when paired with services like U4GM for players who want to buy Elden Ring Items and streamline their builds.

Here are 9 must-visit locations to unlock all major Bell Bearings in Elden Ring, along with practical advice based on my personal playthrough.

1. Smithing-Stone Miner's Bell Bearing [1] – Raya Lucaria Crystal Tunnel

Located in Liurnia of the Lakes, defeat the Crystalian boss to acquire this Bell Bearing. This was the first major crafting upgrade I unlocked, and it felt like a game-changer. With it, you can purchase Smithing Stones [1] and [2], which are vital for early-game weapon upgrades.

2. Smithing-Stone Miner's Bell Bearing [2] – Sealed Tunnel

Found in the Leyndell area, inside the Sealed Tunnel. After navigating hidden walls and defeating the Onyx Lord, this Bell Bearing gives you access to Smithing Stones [3] and [4]. For mid-game players, this is the key to bringing your gear to the next level.

3. Smithing-Stone Miner's Bell Bearing [3] – Zamor Ruins

Located in the Mountaintops of the Giants, inside a chest. This was a tricky location for me due to the high-damage enemies and harsh weather, but unlocking Smithing Stones [5] and [6] was absolutely worth the effort.

4. Somberstone Miner's Bell Bearing [1] – Sellia Crystal Tunnel

In Caelid, defeat the Fallingstar Beast to receive this Bell Bearing. It allows you to buy Somber Smithing Stones [1] and [2], which are crucial for special weapons. When I switched to a boss weapon, this Bell Bearing saved me hours of rune farming.

5. Somberstone Miner's Bell Bearing [2] – Altus Tunnel

Found in the Altus Plateau. This one was a bit hidden, but with some exploration, I located it. It provides access to Somber Stones [3] and [4], ideal for boosting unique weapons further.

6. Somberstone Miner's Bell Bearing [3] – First Church of Marika

On the Mountaintops of the Giants. The open-world path to this church is scenic yet dangerous. This Bell Bearing unlocks Somber Stones [5] and [6], perfect for bringing weapons to elite levels.

7. Glovewort Picker's Bell Bearing [1] – Wyndham Catacombs

After defeating the Erdtree Burial Watchdog boss, this Bell Bearing unlocks Ghost Gloveworts [1] to [3]. This was vital when I began experimenting with Spirit Ashes more seriously, especially in co-op situations.

8. Glovewort Picker's Bell Bearing [2] – Giant-Conquering Hero’s Grave

This one is in the Mountaintops of the Giants and guarded by several challenging enemies. After unlocking it, you can buy Ghost Gloveworts [4] to [6]. During my run, this was the turning point for upgrading my Mimic Tear summon to its most effective form.

9. Bone Peddler’s Bell Bearing – Dropped by Bell Bearing Hunter

Found in multiple regions, but the Warmaster’s Shack encounter is the most reliable. Defeating the Bell Bearing Hunter here provides access to bones for crafting, which came in handy when I wanted to stockpile arrows without spending cheap elden ring runes unnecessarily.

Final Thoughts and Personal Tips

One of the smartest strategies in Elden Ring is preparing ahead by unlocking as many Bell Bearings as early as possible. It reduces backtracking and keeps your build competitive. If you’re feeling under-leveled or under-equipped, using U4GM to buy Elden Ring Items or acquire cheap elden ring runes can supplement your journey and help maintain momentum, especially after a few unlucky boss fights.

In my own experience, being able to purchase upgrade materials and consumables at will added a layer of freedom that made the rest of the game feel more rewarding and less grindy. With the right Bell Bearings in your inventory, you're never far from being properly equipped for whatever the Lands Between throws your way.

Keep exploring, stay curious, and don’t hesitate to gear up smarter. Elden Ring rewards preparedness—and Bell Bearings are one of the best ways to stay ready.
