The Bonny Gaol dungeon in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree is a great place to earn various items such as a great Spirit Ash, upgrade materials, and more.

Although you have to clear a certain region to unlock this area, it can be accessed relatively early in the DLC.

Bonny Gaol dungeon in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree: Walkthrough
Go forward from the Bonny Gaol Grace in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree, and after getting out to an open area, follow the right side's pathway. There's a cell on the right side where you will find Frozen Maggot. Just after getting out of the cell, you will see hanging pots on the left.
Hop onto the nearest pot, then to the next one (it will automatically come down), and fall on the platform nearby. Following that, go to the right side, and a blob monster will attack you. Kill it, go inside the room, and you will find a Hefty Cracked Pot. Be careful of more enemies in there.
After going out of the room, go to the right side, where you can use a pressure plate to bring the hanging pot down. After it's gone up, get down to the nearby platform, proceed to the west, go inside the cell, and collect 10 Bolts in there. You will also encounter a few Shadow Deads in there.
Go to the next cell by opening the door, and you will see a square entrance to go down to the back of the room. Fall from there, collect the Broken Rune, and then proceed to the northeast pathway. After running for a while, you will reach a relatively open area, and just ahead, an entrance on the right side will contain four Smithing Stones [2].
Move to the southeast path, and you will find a ladder. Go up, kill the monster, and collect the Stalwart Horn Charm +2 Talisman from there. Use the big hole to get down, go through the door on the south, and follow the right-side pathway to reach the room with a square entrance again.
Get down from there. Now, instead of going to the northeast path, follow the path on the west. At the end of it, you will find a Broken Rune. When returning from there, you will see another path to the south. Proceed forward, and when you see two ways in different directions, go left to collect an Invigorating Cured Meat.
Now, go on the other path and jump down from there. Move forward, and just ahead, you will find another Broken Rune on the left (in front of a cell door). Also, be careful of the living pot's attack. From there, go southeast to find the Lost Ashes of War.

Go east and you will find a triangular entrance. Jump down from there and obtain the Innard Meat. Then, follow the pathway in the northeast, get down the stairs, and collect a Silver Horn Tender in the left side's cell. Afterward, go through the west's cell rooms, and you will be on the edge.
Jump down onto the hanging pot, and it will automatically go down. When it reaches the nearby platform, jump on there and quickly jump back on the hanging pot again. It will make the pot go even higher. When it reaches up, get down on the platform and kill the Shadow Undeads to collect the armor set, which includes the Helm of Night, Armor of Night, Gauntlets of Night, and Greaves of Night.
Go up the stairs, kill the monster on the right, and then get inside to collect the Shield of Night lying on the edge. Return to the hanging pot, jump onto it, and then to the subsequent platform.
