Where To Get Somber Smithing Stone 7

If you're hunting for the Somber Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone in 'Elden Ring', the short practical truth is: kill the big ancient dragons that roam the late-game zones and loot them. These stones are rare post-game-tier materials, so they typically come from Ancient Dragon-type enemies found in high-level areas like the Mountaintops of the Giants, Crumbling Farum Azula, and other endgame dragon lairs. They don't usually sit in a neat chest — they tend to be a drop or a corpse pickup after a boss-ish dragon fight. I usually approach this as a patient grind: learn the dragon's attack patterns, bait a safe landing window, then close in for the kill when it's grounded or staggered. If you're struggling, summon help or use ranged builds to kite and whittle them down. Keep an eye on dragon corpse locations too — some fights leave a glowing item you can loot. Expect low drop rates, so plan to farm the area in cycles rather than assuming you'll get one on the first try. Beyond straight combat, check late-game dungeons and hidden chest caches in those same regions; I've snagged rare smithing materials from tucked-away corridors and optional bosses. Also remember that certain NPC interactions or quest rewards can occasionally net high-tier smithing stones, so don't skip sidequests while you're exploring. Personally, the thrill of finally getting that rare Somber Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone after a long night of dragon-hunting is one of those tiny victories that keeps me exploring for another hour.
