If You want to farm some quick runes to level up your first character or If you are a Veteran Elden ring Player with NG+7 this AFK rune farm will help you at any stage in the game.
With the latest Elden Ring DLC, the Shadow of the Erdtree Elden ring has gained a tremendous amount of new players and tons of returning players who are trying out the new DLC. Since Elden Ring is a Souls Like Game It’s Primary In-game Currency is definitely souls, but In this Game, they are known as Runes.
You can purchase anything and everything with Runes Exceptions being some incantations that you can purchase with dragon heart but that’s another topic. Furthermore, If you want to level up your character to the max level (713) then you will need roughly 1.6B runes, that’s a lot of runes to farm manually.
So If you are like me and you want to find the fastest and easiest way possible to level up your character then I have got You covered. In this guide, I will discuss two of the oldest Rune farm methods that every Elden ring Player has heard of, it’s none other than the Mohgwyn Palace Bird killing Method and Golden Shower rune Method.
Autohotkey for AFk Rune Farming Method
Before explaining both methods first we need to explain the application we are going to use. To Run these configs you need to download an Application called Autohotkey Although the app is completely safe use it at your own risk, I have no affiliation with Autohotkey or their company. But I have been using this application for a long time, and till now I haven’t faced any issues.
You can simply search on Google “Autohotkey download” and the official site should be on top of the search results visit that site and follow the instructions to download on your preferred devices. If You can’t download the application none of these methods are going to work so it is kind of a major requirement for AFK rune farming.
AFK Rune farm from Mohgwyn Palace Bird Killing Method
I am gonna Describe the Bird-killing method first because it is the easiest and every early-game character can access this method the second one is much more efficient but you need to kill the Elden Beast, the Last Boss of the Game to get that sword reacquired for the second method. So now that is out of the way Let’s Talk about the first method.
Item Requirement
- Longbow Witch Rain of Arrows Ash of War
- Ash of War: Rain of Arrows
- Arrow’s Reach Talisman
- Gold Scarab Talisman (Optional)

}This Method has a Rune Protection so that if your character dies for some reason it will auto-collect the previously dropped rune.
How to Run The Script
First of all copy the code from above then launch AutoHotkey. Click on the “New Script” then give it a name, Something like “Bird Killing”. Click on “Edit” and it will ask you to choose which editor you want to use you can choose your preferred editor, I used the Notepad editor. After opening the editor paste the code the code that you copied earlier then save it or click ctrl + s on your keyboard together it will automatically save.
After saving the script close all the applications and then right-click on the script and Run as Administrator. If You have done everything correctly it should show on the taskbar notification area, you can check it by clicking on the show hidden icons menu.
After opening the script correctly open up Elden Ring and go to the Mohgwyn Palace Site of Grace where the Bird is located. Now click on F9 on your keyboard and it should automatically move your character and start farming the rune. If you want to stop the script just press F10, but I recommend pressing your F10 Button while you see the loading screen so that your character will not run off the cliff or do something weird.
AFK Rune farm from Mohgwyn Palace Albinaurics Killing Method
If you are familiar with the bird-killing method then you already know everything about this method but If you don’t know about the Bird Killing Method it should not be a big issue because this method is relatively easier and faster. The major downside of this farming is getting the weapon. You have to kill the Final Boss of Elden Ring in order to get the required weapon.
Item Requirement
- Sacred Relic Sword (+5 to +9)
- Gold Scarab Talisman (Optional)
