You can access the Stone Coffin Fissure without too much trouble from the Cerulean Coast. Check out our guide to reaching the Cerulean Coast from Shadow of the Erdtree’s starting area if you’re having difficulties on the windy route that leads to this southern stretch of the map.

Once you've reached the Cerulean Coast Cross Site of Grace, head west and then south along the peninsula. You’ll gallop past a grove of weird pink and blue plants with dead-eyed faces that will lurch up out of the ground to smash you as you go past, and a troll lurks on the edge of a cliffside, hoarding a collection of pots that it’ll use to throw at you.

After dodging these unpleasant obstacles, you’ll reach The Fissure Site of Grace, which is near a ruined section of wall lying on the ground. There will also be a large hole in the ground that you’ll need to jump into. The hole is dark and deep but not bottomless, and there are a number of ledges for your Tarnished to hop onto as they descend to the bottom. Slimes abound, so beware.

Finally, after a length bit of platforming, you’ll be in the truly bizarre purple world that lurks beneath the surface of the Land of Shadow. The Stone Coffin Fissure Site of Grace will be right before you.
