Elden Ring: Queen Marika Might Actually Be An Eternal City Mimic

One other small but interesting detail regarding these characters highlights another parallel between the worlds of Elden Ring and Bloodborne . Eileen’s armor mentions that the first Hunter of Hunters came from a foreign land. Coincidently, Yura originates from the Land of Reeds, making him a foreigner to The Lands Between, like Elden Ring 's Numen . Such details, along with the heavy focus on cosmic, extraterrestrial beings in both games, fuels speculation that the games could take place on different planets in the same unive


Commander Niall is another annoying boss. He can be found in Castle Sol in Elden Ring’s Mountaintops of the Giants region. Commander Niall is optional, so players can avoid him and the Castle, but defeating him is essential for players who want the Haligtree Secret Medallion (Left) to access the Consecrated Snowfield locat


Several items in Elden Ring are Easter eggs that refer to FromSoftware’s previous titles. The Sun Realm Shield has intriguing and mysterious ties to an important city in Dark Souls lore, but the drop rate for this shield is incredibly low, so it’s easy for most players to miss. An armor piece called Raptor’s Black Feathers resembles a notable Bloodborne character whose quest line parallels that of a summonable Elden Ring Armor Guide Ring NPC . Scavenger hunt-style puzzles across The Lands Between involve paintings, which also bring to mind one of the most intriguing lore aspects of the Dark Souls franch


Rennala has two phases to her fight, but the first phase is the most annoying. During the first phase, players must destroy her protective barrier by killing the correct student in the room. Running around and finding the right student sounds simple, but during this phase, her students are throwing items at the player and dropping chandeliers. Meanwhile, Rennala will use a powerful beam attack to devastate unwary players. If a player is not careful during this first phase, they can begin Rennala’s second phase with not enough health or flask of crimson te


Godfrey continued making history in the Lands Between when he went to war with the Giants because their fire threatened the safety of the Erdtree. However, after defeating the Storm Lord alone, Godfrey lost his guidance of grace and warrior spirit. Godfrey became Elden Ring 's first Tarnished, exiled by Marika along with all his warriors. Godfrey leads his warriors on a long march and eventually takes back the name Hoarah Loux, becoming chieftain of the Badland warriors until the events of the game bring him back to mend the Golden Order. As interesting as this information may be, some large questions have not been answe


There have been many assumptions about what an Elden Ring _ DLC will entail, but among these theories, a supposed future DLC called _Barbarians of the Badlands has spread over the internet as rumors of leaks have proliferated. As exciting as this may sound for fans, this title leak is the result of a ransomware attack on Bandai Namco Entertainment, an attack that has resulted in the reveal of several game titles to be released in 2023 even while many have doubts about the leak's authentic


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


Elden Ring ** fans __ ** have been blown away by the number of boss encounters in the game, but some of these bosses are annoying. Players who come across these bosses at the appropriate skill level may not have difficulty defeating them. However, there are aspects to their fights that may frustrate even the most experienced Soulsborne pla


However, there is also a chance that this leak is a hoax fabricated by the group responsible for the ransomware attack. Based on the other game titles released, some individuals believe this leak is a hoax and has no chance of being true. That said, this also happened with Capcom several years ago, ultimately resulting in the Dragons Dogma 2 sequel being revealed ahead of sched


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, 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
