Instead of getting Mighty Shot, like the Composite Bow, the Red Branch Shortbow has the Barrage skill. This skill allows a weapon to fire much faster than normal. In general, this skill isn't as desirable as Mighty Shot, although Barrage does have one advantage. A barrage of arrows has a much better chance of inflicting a status ailment on an enemy than a single s

He's crucial to obtaining the Nagakiba katana and another strong weapon that may or may not become available depending on which among the four methods the players choose. For more details and to better weigh which of the methods yield the best rewards or the least amount of effort, here's a hands-on guide on obtaining the Nagakiba.

Many Elden Ring players getting through the game for the first time find themselves getting stuck at the Godskin Duo battle in the Crumbling Farum Azula. While the Godskin Apostle and Godskin Noble are individual, optional bosses that can be encountered on multiple occasions throughout the game, fighting both of them at the same time is a mandatory ordeal for all those who want to see one of Elden ring boss Strategies Ring's endi

The main advantages of the Soldier's Crossbow are its low stat requirements and light weight , which can make it a decent offhand option for some unique builds. It's particularly useful for aggro-pulling and enemy separation tactics, thanks to its decent range. While far from remarkable, it can serve a niche role for players seeking a simple, lightweight ranged t

Upon killing him, Yura will drop the Nagakiba Katana, a few Runes, and nothing else, so those drooling for his Ronin Armor Set set might want to wait at least a little bit before killing him. To be more precise, if you progress Yura's Questline until you find him at the Zamor Ruins Site of Grace and then kill him, you can get his Armor Set here and find the Nagakiba sitting in his previous location north of Murkwater Cave.

Obtaining the Verdigris Set is closely tied to an NPC named Moore , who wears this armor. Players encounter Moore once they reach Belurat, the Tower Settlement. The set can be acquired by either killing Moore (he can invade if players kill a Forager Brood Pest) or by progressing through his questline, which ultimately results in Moore's death. Players can then retrieve the armor from his cor

This Elden Ring final boss cheese method is reserved for players with an Intelligence-focused character build, as the Rock Sling sorcery scales up with this attribute. The trick here is to aim at the Beast's weak spot, which is a small, glowing point located on its lower torso. Repeatedly slinging rocks at that spot is a straightforward, low-effort way to kill the last boss in Elden Ring, but one still has to remember to dodge the Beast's own attacks between each sl

However, Yura's questline can be quite long compared to a lot of other NPC questlines and will require you to unlock/reach the Altus Plateau, which is unofficially considered a mid-game area in Elden Ring . Once you encounter Yura at the Second Church of Marika in the Altus Plateau and talk to him, the Nagakiba is yours. To complete this questline in full, you'll need to meet with and help Yura out a number of times, so let's break down exactly what's involved in this questline below:

The dark cave is notable for housing the full Mushroom armor set whose helmet is quite substantial for some niche overpowered builds that can one-shot most bosses. Apart from that, players can also find the Kindred of Rot's Exultation in the cave which is also crucial for Poison or Rot builds. So players with uncommon builds will want to venture here ASAP.

Summoning is a core mechanic in Elden Ring that players rely on time and time again to tackle a tough area or take out the many bosses that roam The Lands Between. However, while this mechanic is pretty useful, there are times when players can't rely on summons because of several restrictions that seemingly exist for balancing purpo

Clever's Moveset Modpack adds the entire gamut of cleverraptor6's (mod author) mods in a single package. Each mod in the pack adds a completely new moveset, a fully realized build, and unique weapons to work with these movesets. By their very nature, these movesets are much more powerful than vanilla Elden Ring , promising players a much easier time handling anything the game can throw at t

It's not the best armor when it comes to taking hits, but it soaks up elemental damage and magic pretty well for something so light. The Noble's Set is also rather simple and unobtrusive as far as armor sets go. The individual pieces can be mixed and matched without much of an aesthetic f

The Blackflame Monk Set is an underrated armor set because it's quite hard to farm. It is, however, notably stylish, especially with the hood and the flowing robes. And of course, it has good Fire defense that allows players to withstand some common flame atta

The Nagakiba Katana is a great weapon to dual-wield, especially alongside the Uchigatana. It's an absurdly long weapon overall, having more reach than most spears in the game, and it really doesn't take much effort to get. There's a reason this weapon is so popular, after all. In any case, here are the full expanded stats of this katana:
