Elden Ring: Tombsward Catacombs Dungeon Guide
The Tombsward Catacombs is one of Elden Ring's many mini-dungeons that contain an array of worthwhile rewards. This exciting dungeon can be found in the Weeping Peninsula, south of the starting area of Limgrave. It's rife with skeletons and a scary-looking boss, the Cemetery Shade.

Completing this catacomb dungeon will give you access to the incredibly useful Lhutel the Headless Spirit Ashes, which will allow you to summon the eponymous Lhutel in battle. This particular spirit is worth acquiring to add to your repertoire, as it can be especially effective against a variety of enemies once it's been upgraded.
Tombsward Catacombs can be a bit tricky if you let yourself get overwhelmed by the skeletons, but if you're suitably geared up to deal with them and take precautions against them re-animating, you'll be okay - hit the skeletons when they're on the ground and glowing to get their runes and ensure they don't get back up again.
Outside the threat of the skeletons, this dungeon has a similar layout to other dungeons in the game that bear the 'catacombs' title, including a flame pillar that you'll have to make a well-timed run towards. You can find a few Grave Glovewort in addition to plenty Grave Violet items for crafting recipes throughout the dungeon, and you can get a fair amount of runes from killing every skeleton. The Cemetery Shade Boss has some fast attacks but predictable patterns that you can take advantage of to defeat them.
You can find the entrance to the Tombsward Catacombs in the middle of the Weeping Penisula, inside the small mountain with the minor erdtree and erdtree avatar boss. Open the gates and head on down to touch the site of grace.
