These include under staircases, behind suspicious-looking walls, and of course, behind waterfalls. Elden Ring has these locations in abundance &#8211; prompting players to put their detective skills and video game experience to use.\u00a0 We expect to find something behind a waterfall, and <a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/news\/20230830-21209\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the need to check them has even been described as a curse<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One early-game waterfall can be found near the Church of Consolation, just southeast of the Gravesite Plain Site of Grace. A smaller waterfall can be found towards the north near the Castle Front Site of Grace. Sadly, most of Shadow of the Erdtree\u2019s explorable waterfalls hold nothing worth mentioning. While items such as Dewgems and Silver Fireflies may be found dotted near the waterfalls\u2019 bases, these are common enough that players can find them in other areas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624-32848-004.jpg\" alt=\"Shadow of the Erdtree Church of Consolation waterfall\" class=\"wp-image-32857\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624-32848-004.jpg 900w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624-32848-004-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624-32848-004-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624-32848-004-600x337.jpg 600w\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Above: Waterfall near the Church of Consolation, Below: Waterfall near the Castle Front<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624-32848-005.jpg\" alt=\"Shadow of the Erdtree Castle Front waterfall map\" class=\"wp-image-32858\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624-32848-005.jpg 900w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624-32848-005-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624-32848-005-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624-32848-005-600x337.jpg 600w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There is still a chance that these waterfalls are hiding something.
