This guide details how to reach the Jagged Peak region in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. It covers the journey from the Castle Front Site of Grace, through the Dragon's Pit dungeon, and the encounters with Ancient Dragon-Man and other enemies.

Getting to Jagged Peak:

1. Before setting off, ensure you have collected Scadutree Fragments and leveled your Revered Spirit Ash Blessing, as Jagged Peak is a difficult area with many dragons.
2. Start from the Castle Front Site of Grace, located outside Castle Ensis. If you haven't been there, head east from the Three-Path Cross Site of Grace across Ellac Greatbridge and continue northeast.
3. From the Castle Front Site of Grace, head south to the main path going east. Follow this path until you can take the upper path leading east.
4. Continue on this path until you reach the Pillar Path Waypoint Site of Grace.
5. Proceed past the thin path with dragon statues on either side. You will be invaded by Ancient Dragon-Man, who uses Dragon-style Incantations and a Great Katana. He is susceptible to staggering with heavy weapons.
6. After defeating the invader, continue down the path to a cave opening. Enter the cave and use the Site of Grace within.

Navigating Dragon's Pit:

1. From the Dragon's Pit Site of Grace, head down the path until you reach the first enemy. Take the northern exit further into the pit, avoiding leaping Skeletons.
2. As the path opens, you will find an item containing a Shadow Realm Rune [2] to your left. Be cautious of Skeletons spawning from the ground.
3. Continue along the eastern path and take the southern route at the next split, ignoring the northern path.
4. This southern path leads to a large altar. Interact with the note that says _“Be brave, Show no fear.”_
5. Approach the edge of the altar and leap off.
6. You will land outside a fog door. Enter to face another Ancient Dragon-Man, who wields a stronger Great Katana. This fight takes place in a large arena.
7. Upon defeating this Ancient Dragon-Man, you will obtain the Dragon-Hunter’s Great Katana.
8. Open the large doors ahead and touch the Site of Grace to enter the Foot of the Jagged Peak.

Notes:

• The Dragon's Pit dungeon spirals downwards and contains a Magma Worm. Defeating it yields an Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone and a Dragon Heart.
• Skeleton enemies in the Dragon's Pit must be struck again after being downed to prevent them from reviving.
