If you played any Souls game before Elden Ring, you'll be familiar with the save points being sacred bonfires; and, when Elden Ring was released, these beloved bonfires turned into glowing grace points. But, interestingly, these graces weren't always th

In the Network Test files, there is an unused animation where the bats (also known as the Chanting Winged Dame) in the game would stand up and sing a seemingly tragic lament in a nearly dead language called Ainu. However, the bats' songs would later be changed to be sung in Latin in the final release of Elden Ring --- the Ainu song seemingly as only a placehol

The first Erdtree Avatar you'll want to go after is located in the Weeping Peninsula. The easiest way to get there is to travel to the South of the Lookout Tower Site of Grace and on the road that leads west, you will see the large Erdtree in the dista

Midway through the battle against him, he offers a display of his abilities, launching himself into the stratosphere and returning as a destructive comet. Of course, while Radahn seems sturdy enough to survive that, the same couldn't be said of his poor mo

Encountered in the depths of the Haligtree, Malenia, Blade of Miquella is arguably the most difficult boss in Soulsborne history. Extremely agile and capable of healing herself when damaging the player and launching a flurry of nigh-on unavoidable attacks, she's become infamous among the Elden Ring commun

Once you have reached the Erdtree, this ugly behemoth will await you, surrounded by large broken pots. Once you have done battle with the enemy, you will be rewarded with Opaline Bubbletear as well as the Crimsonburst Crystal Te

The Avatar variants don’t have a terribly deep move set at their disposal, and each move is well-telegraphed, which helps quite a bit. Taking a direct hit can do quite a bit of damage, so you’ll want to pay extra attention to this boss’ tells and when an attack is coming down. This guide will not cover every attack in this boss’ move set, but it will instead cover the ones that tend to cause the most grief to play

Using the Spirit Ash system, Elden Ring Armor Guide Ring developers created NPCs from their summoning system --- naming it "The Buddy System." This system hinted that there were unique NPCs that could be used for summons, each of them a temporary companion as you call to them to get through a combative encoun

Hidden inside the code of Elden Ring, there is a string of text within the Divine Tower of Limegrave map that hints there was a boss fight intended to be at the top of the Divine Tower. More specifically, it suggests that this boss would've been a Crucible Knight; however, since the name ID was set to 0, we're unable to know the boss' n

Defeat Commander Niall's arena and unlock the Castle Sol Rooftop Site of Grace. Look directly West from this grace, and make your way along the rooftops to the Northern building where a body will greet you with a

Later patches reduced damage for these two special attacks, causing the Sword of Night and Flame to become the niche weapon most frequently used by Faith/Intelligence hybrid spell-casting character builds. Patch 1.07 increased the attack power of the Night-and-Flame stance once more while also adding damage detection to the sword part of the weapon and letting players aim the blasts of Glintstone Sorcery (pioneered by Raya Lucaria's founders) and Giantsflame both up and d

Most experienced players can make quick work of most bosses in the Dark Souls series ; with some pretty predictable moves that are often telegraphed well in advance, once-tough bosses are now pretty easily felled. FromSoftware seems to have taken notice of this, however, as the bosses in Elden Ring are often anything but predicta

Warhakws—cruel avian creatures with knives tied to their feet commonly found in Stormveil Castle—are equally irritating, and this meme imagines a phoned-in DLC boss that combines these awful enemies. No official word has been given regarding future Elden Ring content, but, should it come, most fans would certainly hope that there aren't any boss encounters as heinous as t

Elden Ring's wide open world offers us a lot to explore, and it's no doubt that such a flourishing world has a plethora of development behind it, a few facts being somewhat niche. FromSoftware's hard work on Elden Ring is incredibly apparent, and with fans spending greater than 100 hours on the game, it's fantastic how much more there is to uncover --- alongside all the potential lore that we could've dived ourselves i

The Red Wolf of Radagon is a Great Enemy Boss that many of us struggle defeating on our own . In this fast-paced fight with aggressive magical ranged attacks, the Red Wolf is reminiscent of other Souls wolf bos
