Where To Find The Crystal Chime In Dark Souls 3

The Crystal Chime is located in the Grand Archives, a large, multistory library that most players will be able to access after defeating Aldrich Devourer Of Gods, Yhorm The Giant, Dancer Of The Boreal Valley, and Dragonslayer Armour. This is because the key to the Archives is only available once Gotthard drops the key for it outside the main doors.

From the Grand Archives, players can reach the Crystal Chime by going to the left and up the stairs. Following the drop, there is a large room with several Scholars who have their heads covered in wax. A passageway by the bookshelves will lead players to a narrow corridor where the Chime is guarded by a red-eyed Lothric Knight with a spear. The room just past them has the Crystal Chime.
