There are tons of mods that add famous swords from other video games. These are cool, but not many are funny. However, there is one exception, and watching the tarnished hold the diamond sword from Minecraft is w
The chalice dungeons in Bloodborne are an optional zone for players who want a more challenging experience. While Bloodborne as a whole lacks the type of difficulty most Souls games have, the dungeons make many players change their minds about t
Elden Ring is a big game with a sprawling cast of mysterious characters. Many of them received little to no screen time or have unresolved plot threads. The DLC is a perfect opportunity to elaborate on these characters and expand the lore. This is an enticing thought, as Elden Ring ’s lore is already rich and expansive. So any additions may prompt the community to re-contextualize what is known about the history of Elden Ring or even devise new theories to resolve any questions that have been left unanswe
It boosts the power of full moon sorceries by default, though, given the scarcity of such abilities, the excellent Intelligence scaling damage is more than enough. The Carian Regal Scepter's eventual S scaling is top-tier, and it's obtained by defeating Rennala at Raya Lucaria and exchanging her Remembra
Godwyn, the Golden, is the child of Queen Marika and Godfrey, the First Elden Lord. He was the first of the demigods to die. He did not die a normal death, however. He was slain with a fragment of Destined Death, canceling the immortality bestowed by the Golden Order. This resulted in the death of his soul, but his body lived on, making him the first to live in death. His body grew large and malformed, and he became known as the Prince of De
Anor Londo's name is likely an adoption of a language created by J.R.R. Tolkien in Lord of the Rings , and can roughly be translated as " Land of the Sun ." If Elden Ring and Dark Souls were connected, the Sun Realm Shield could be an artifact from when Anor Londo basked in the sunlight. Though this is likely just an obscure Easter egg for fans, it does present the interesting idea that the events of the Dark Souls series could have happened long ago in Elden Ring ’s timel
Ever since the game's release back in late February 2022, Elden Ring 's convention-breaking developers at FromSoftware have been responding to player feedback and compiling regular updates to fix perceived gameplay issues and improve the accessibility of the RPG as a whole. One major example of this is an update applied to the game menu that appears when Elden Ring player characters rest at a Sight of Lost Grace checkpoint; if players possess the materials needs to upgrade the number of charges or the restorative powers of their healing/magical energy flasks, a golden dot will appear next to the "Flasks" menu option. Updates like these aren't quite as exciting as the buffing/nerfing of fantasy weapons/magic, but do massively improve Elden Ring 's gameplay and story by ensuring players won't lose track of when/if they can upgrade their primary restorative resour
That makes it fitting that Prisoners start with the Glintstone Staff, which is regarded as one of the stronger "jack-of-all-trades" staffs in the game. The Glintstone Staff has a good scaling with Intelligence and is upgraded normally with standard Smithing Stones. On top of being a starting weapon for Prisoners, it's also able to be found as a drop from enemies in Caria Ma
Ever since Demon's Souls , FromSoftware developers of Soulslike RPGs have been trying to balance out the perks and downsides of wielding light and fast weapons vs. heavy but hard-hitting weapons. To this end, the recent Elden Ring 1.06 patch has adjusted the move-sets of weapons in the Greatsword, Curved Greatsword, and Great Hammer categories in order to make them more viable for players in PvP and PvE. The speed of heavy attacks and certain light attacks for these cool Elden Ring weapons has been increased and the recovery time for attack movements has been shortened, making it generally easier for players to strike a foe, then roll out of the way before the enemy can strike back. The speed of Guard Counters has been increased as well for heavy weapons, making it easier for Elden Ring players to use this proto-parry ability against boss enemies and fellow play
To progress through Elden Ring 's White-Faced Varré and his questline (Varré being the NPC representative of the blood-obsessed in-game faction called The Bloody Fingers), Elden Ring players previously needed to accept the Bloody Finger PvP item from him, then invade players in other worlds with it at least three times. The 1.06 update, however, Darkdrift knight everdark sovereign added a new NPC character players can invade in offline mode (his invasion sign can be found near the Writheblood Ruins in Altus Plateau). After defeating Magnus the Beast Claw, a Tarnished who wields a massive Great Stars mace and uses Bestial Incantations, Varré's quest dialogue will progress as if the player had performed their requisite set of PvP duels/invasions in Elden Ring . Besides letting players with no interest in PvP complete a dark yet interesting questline, this new change also makes it easier for speed-runners to gain access to the Mohgwyn Palace region, a popular location for farming "Rune" experience poi
