      Earliest I can think of is down the big elevator at Divine Bridge after you get teleported by the chest in weeping peninsula. You need the explosion tear from the avatar in west liurnia and perform the elevator drop glitch or have an invader activate the elevator, once you are down the stone is to your left in a hallway patrolled by abductors.

        Are there any enemies that drop this? I know that there are ones for stones 1-5 and 7. What about any for 6,8, and 9?

          By far the easiest Sombre 6 I have found so far without doing the Abductor Virgin teleport route to Volcano Manor:
          1) Take Rya's hand or simply get to the Manor.
          2) Run through it till you get to the Guest Hall Site of Grace.
          3) Open the door overlooking the lava lake with the lava/waterfall in the distance in front of you.
          4) The rooftop of the building below you on the right has the stone. You can jump down or use the ladder & run behind the building and up the slope to get to it.

            So rare and needed, especially at the start where you have a good weapon and run out of it when we ACTUALLY need it. How damn fustrating is this game!?!?!?!?

            • "dropped by a teardrop scarab chilling in the middle of the lake of rot", thats a very unelegant choice of words, If you ask me. It gets the message across but...yeah, it feels kinda off putting.

                For those that want 1 early without breaking quests your best bet is the one in Sellia Crystal Tunnel, but the boss here is quite hard for a low level character

                  An easier Somber Stone 6 that isn't listed here, along the route of the 5 and 7 from the Raya Academy Maiden teleport:
                  1. Drop down the lavafall and navigate to the nearby base elevator.
                  2. Ride this elevator up to reach a platform with a patrolling Lizard and another elevator (Somber Stone 5 is up there, too)
                  3. From this platform, jump to the circular roof of the broken/sinking building next to it
                  4. Navigate and jump from roof to roof to finally obtain the Somber Stone 6 on a body located on a lower roof.
                  5. Go back and take the second elevator up for Somber Stone 5 (and 7 if you want to attempt the jump skip to get the one behind the Maiden on the balcony, after raising the bridge)

                  • 1x in Volcano Manor area (not mentioned in Wiki):

                    "One can be found in a dark room surrounded by several basilisk in the Volcano Manor area.

                    Starting from the Temple of Eiglay site of grace, proceed to the second level of the temple, jump off the balcony, and continue past several Burning Slug. Eventually, you will come across a sole Virgin Abductor. Proceed past this enemy on the lefthand side of the large lava lake until you see a dark doorway on your left. Inside this room is the smithing stone, found on a corpse surrounded by several Basilisk enemies."

                      There is one past the corpse by the two abductor virgins north of the "Fortified Manor, First Floor" site of grace.

                        I got every stone, even ancient one, but not the 6... Now I had to do it and come to the wiki even though I promised myself not to... Thanks Obama!

                          There is an easy one East of First Mt. Gelmir Campsite past the coffins on a corpse sitting in a chair by the cliff edge

                            The stone in Uhl Palace Ruins can only be accessed from Ainsel River Main, which requires progressing through Ranni's quest. From the grace, head southwest through the Uhl Palace Ruins and follow the tunnel behind it. Take the first left past the ants and you'll find it.

                                    An easy one that is not mentioned is west of the bridge of iniquity grace, up a ladder near the abductors, on a corpse sitting in a chair at the edge of the cliff on your left.

                                        The small scarab that turns into a large one on the bridge to the elevator that goes down to the forbidden lands drops one.

                                          There are actually quite a few 5,6, and one 7 somber stone in the volcano manor underneath. If you let the inquisitor boss eat you in the academy you’re teleported under volcano manor. If Juno down and explore the runes you will find many stones on corpuses but lots of dangerous enemies

                                            There is a Somber Smithing stone [6] in the crystal tunnel next to Sellia town of sorcery, you get it by killing the boss there

                                              The Uhl Palace ruins location for this one does not exist (at least not on base game before Ng+). Please fix.

                                              • Found one in Mt Gelmir/Volcano Manor. From the Temple of Eiglay site of grace, head left and up the shortcut elevator. Near the top is a hole in the wall, where you can jump to. There's a Stoneward Key and a trash mob. To the left is an open window with a ledge beneath. Jump trough it and follow the ledge on the left until you come to a room with frogs. Clear it and at the end is a Somber Smithing Stone 6.

                                                Can someone confirm this location?

                                                      I just checked old altus tunnel, a 6 DOES spawn behind the shack. Its the one without a tunnel, and you need to go around the left side not the right side.

                                                        Absolutely can confirm that there is one in old atlas tunnel you go left to go behind the far shack across the way from the knights after dropping down. Enjoy,

                                                          For those of you wondering about the existence of the one in Uhl Palace Ruins, it literally does exist. It's technically in the zone but you can only reach the Somber (6) stone by going through the north of Ainsel River and you can only go through the north by progressing through the questline of Ranni (unless there's multiple ways to get there).

                                                              I found one in Leyndell. When you start from the Est capital Rampart and try to go to the door that lead to the zone in the est, you shoukd walk across some flying demi humans.

                                                              On the left there will be a hole with a demi human praying in front of a little monolith ( I think ) and there you will find a somber +6 !
                                                              Hope this is helpful !
