Combine art and spirituality. Create a new masterpiece that aims to pay homage to Japanese culture. Richard Mille presents the RM 47 Tourbillon, the culmination of nearly four years of in-depth thinking and design work. This is a new art watch with an extremely compact movement designed to make room inside the case for a completely handcrafted stylized samurai armor. The model was born out of a friendly dialogue between Richard Mille and Fernando Alonso, two-time Formula 1 world champion and partner of the brand, passionate about traditional Japanese arts and samurai codes of conduct.

Elden Ring Runes: 10 Best Farming Spots for Mid-Game
If you’ve made it to the mid-game in Elden Ring, chances are you’ve already faced down some tough enemies and realized that upgrading weapons, leveling stats, and stocking up on essential Elden Ring items is a constant resource drain. That’s where efficient rune farming becomes critical. Whether you're prepping for legacy dungeon bosses or just want to boost your build, here are 10 of the best Elden Ring runes farming spots to take advantage of in the mid-game phase.
1. Windmill Village (Altus Plateau)
This unsettling location is home to dancing nobles who drop a decent number of runes and are relatively easy to kill. With little resistance and a high rune-per-minute rate, this is one of the most relaxing yet productive spots for farming in Altus Plateau.
2. Shaded Castle Outer Walls
Also in Altus Plateau, the enemies surrounding the Shaded Castle can be dispatched quickly, especially the sword-wielding foot soldiers. These foes drop a surprising number of Elden Ring runes, and the area layout allows for repeated clear runs.
3. Sealed Tunnel (Leyndell Region)
Inside this illusion-heavy cave near the Capital outskirts lies a cluster of miners and guards that are rich rune sources. While it's a bit more challenging than other locations, the return is worth the effort. It’s also a good place to find crafting Elden Ring items like Smithing Stones.
4. Wyndham Ruins
This area in the Mt. Gelmir approach is crawling with undead soldiers and casters. Their density makes area-of-effect skills particularly effective. You’ll gain a steady supply of runes, and if you explore thoroughly, you may uncover useful Elden Ring items hidden among the ruins.
5. Perfumer’s Ruins
Located in the Altus Plateau, this spot offers both human and magical enemies that drop runes at a higher-than-average rate. The Perfumer enemies can be tricky, but their rune rewards and item drops make the risk worthwhile.
6. Leyndell Soldiers in Outer Wall Phantom Tree
These powerful enemies offer high rune yields. With the right gear or stealth tactics, you can kite or backstab them efficiently. It’s a higher-risk farming loop, but extremely rewarding for players with upgraded weapons and armor.
7. Sage’s Cave (Altus Plateau)
Though hidden behind an illusion, Sage’s Cave is full of bandits and undead who drop a moderate number of runes and occasionally valuable Elden Ring items like talismans. A good farming spot with added exploration bonuses.
8. Gelmir Hero’s Grave
This dungeon offers enemies that give solid rune returns, and once you've mastered the timing of the chariots, the loop becomes manageable. The dungeon also contains rare loot, making it a multipurpose farming route.
9. Abandoned Coffin Site of Grace
In the western part of Altus Plateau, this Grace point is surrounded by weak human enemies and slugs that can be easily cleared. The ease of the route and the short respawn distance make it a solid option for lower-risk mid-game farming.
10. Mt. Gelmir Camps
Several camps along the paths to Volcano Manor are filled with soldiers, beasts, and magic users. With careful engagement, you can farm a good amount of Elden Ring runes and potentially pick up useful Elden Ring items such as upgrade materials and armor pieces.
Mid-game in Elden Ring is where the game’s difficulty and rune needs begin to spike. Finding efficient farming routes not only boosts your survivability but also saves time better spent exploring the Lands Between. Whether you’re leveling a new weapon, buying sorceries, or simply hoarding for future investment, these rune farming locations can make a significant difference in your journey. Happy farming, Tarnished.
