Elden Ring 's bosses are no different. Intimidating and hard to beat, some of these creatures have stopped players in their tracks plenty of times. Thankfully, just like in any other Soulslike title, there are certain clever exploits, i.e. "cheeses," that can turn these formidable bosses into dust in a matter of seconds. While some of the more hardcore fans will vehemently disapprove of using these in any circumstances, they can come in handy for players who simply want to progress furt

So, players need to simply walk out of the Third Church of Marika Site of Grace and kill the troll. Rinse and repeat until the desired number of Runes or levels are achieved. There are higher-yield farming spots but this one is low-risk and is also great for practicing how to dodge or how to fight while moun

This particular strategy was discovered by a popular Souls- focused YouTuber, Iron Pineapple . It can be seen in action here . All one has to do to kill the Draconic Sentinel is to stealthily position oneself behind the boss, and continuously cast Poison Mist at him . This spell will not aggravate the Sentinel, all the while dealing steady poison damage. The only drawback of this approach is that it can take as long as 15 minutes to kill him, due to Poison Mist's low damage st

Maliketh, the Black Blade is extremely susceptible to contracting Scarlet Rot , and with a few well-placed Rotten Breath blows , the infection will begin to take away chunks of his health on its own. Players will still need to show some skill by avoiding his attacks and making sure to keep the boss infected . With enough persistence, this is by far the easiest way to get rid of Malik

The Meteorite Sorcery is very similar to the Rock Sling one as both spells use gravitational magic. While The Rock Sling can hit multiple enemies, Meteorite is better used against big foes like bosses in Elden Ring , as the caster will be able to summon a meteor rain from the sky. The Spell does require 30 Intelligence, so keep that in m

The Light Crossbow gives players the ability to deliver as much damage as the Shortbow but at a much longer range. The drawback of the Light Crossbow, with all Crossbow-type weapons in fact, is the Weapon Skill . The Kick skill is only useful in very specific circumstan

As a starting location, Limgrave offers a decent variety of optional bosses along with valuable loot. The region is also home to some easy-to-kill enemies that grant a decent amount of Runes. So, if anyone finds it difficult to beat Margit, The Fell Omen, or Godrick, The Grafted, there are some decent Rune farms in Limgrave to level up and return to the same fights stron

Main-gauche : Similar to the Wakizashi and Parrying Dagger, the Main-gauche unlocks a unique duel-wielding moveset when equipped in the off-hand – but only when you are wielding a Thrusting sword. Its innate ability to Parry attacks makes it great for offensive playstyles that suit a dual-wielding playstyle, but being found deep in the DLC makes it hard to acquire, and its stricter requirements to unlock the moveset make it less appealing than a Wakiza

The Cannon of Haima is basically a big shot of Magic damage hurled towards enemies. It can be used against a lot of opponents as it has great AoE damage, and the spell can also find enemies hidden behind walls or on top of the roofs. You can increase its damage by using various Talismans or buffing it with other spe

Glintstone Kris : The Glintstone Kris grants players an interesting ability called "Glintstone Dart," but as far as a Sorcery spell in Elden Ring , it's fairly underwhelming. It may be useful in the early game, but any player building Intelligence will quickly find a better alternat

Speaking of more trolls, Stormhill is a lovely area full of those walking behemoths. One area, specifically south of Warmaster's Shack, has five of these trolls standing near a cliff . They're also evenly spaced out so players don't need to fight multiple trolls all at the same time — though doing that is faster but risk

Erdsteel Dagger : A bit of extra reach and the ability to compliment a Faith-based build is nice, but the Erdsteel Dagger takes too much effort to get when players can easily go find better alternati

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
