Elden Ring: All Stonesword Key Locations Guide 1

Stonesword Keys are used to get some valuable items, rare equipment, and even fight a few bosses – all of which are locked behind pesky imp statues that must be fed one of these keys.

The imps statue are scattered almost everywhere – right after the opening tutorial, dotted about the open world, hidden in dungeons, and they even appear in major locations like Stormveil Castle. While your first Stonesword Key can be procured immediately by selecting it as your Keepsake, we wouldn't recommend it. See Best Keepsake and All Starting Items Explained for details.
