Lake of Rot and the city of Nokstella were probably awesome on paper. In practice, it's just players skipping the content by running past them in order to avoid Scarlet Rot and all the tedious enemies. While the city of Nokstella is rewarding thanks to enemies that drop Larval Tear, the Lake of Rot area is neither fun nor challeng

Luckily, there are ways to minimize the burn degree in Elden Ring . Armor is the most available and the least disruptive method of protecting oneself against Fire damage. Some players can probably guess an armor set's Fire protection from appearance alone. Those flammable rags won't do; for better fireproofing, these armor sets ought to keep the temperature d

To do that, some grinding and Rune farming are necessary to purchase some levels from Melina . Thankfully, Limgrave has plenty of farming spots that are both accessible and yield decent amounts of Runes. Head on reviews over at eldenringportal.com to these locations and follow the instructi

Players will have to unlock Mountaintops of the Giants in order to get to Castle Sol. It's an optional area but Mountaintops of the Giants is mandatory so unlocking that region is easy. To get to Castle Sol, players will simply have to head over to the northernmost part of the Mountaintops of the Gia

Apart from the scenery and the main boss of this Legacy Dungeon , there's really nothing new in Miquella's Haligtree or in Elphael. It's an area filled with recycled monsters which would have been fine, but it seems the developers picked the most annoying and least-balanced enemies and dumped all of them in this late-game a

Bows and other ranged weapons are generally not the best weapon in games like Elden Ring , since there is more of a focus on melee combat. Bows, crossbows, and cannons are slow, it's easy to miss, they require ammunition, their damage generally is low, and many ranged weapons are not compatible with the best Ashes of War , which upgrade equipment. That being said, these weapons have their uses, and players will come across situations where ranged tools are the most efficient weapon for dispatching enem

Players don't even need to engage the regular-sized enemies at the back of the caravan. Attacking the two trolls will stop the caravan and the players will be free to poke at the trolls without interruption from the rest of the caravan (assuming they stay at the front). The best part is that these trolls are weakened by their chains and can't do much to retaliate apart from the usual stomp. That's an easy 2,000 Runes . Killing the caravan guards will add 1,000 extra Runes to the total earnings. Just rinse and rep

Also, make sure to also find all the Walking Mausoleums and duplicate any Rememberances one might have on hand. In general, secret bosses Rememberances should take priority since they're more difficult to seek out, but then it's more about what one does and doesn't want to do in their next playthrough. Don't want to beat a boss again but do want all their stuff? Duplicate. Going to fight 'em again? Maybe don't duplicate. In case it's needed, here's a list of Walking Mausoleum locations, just remember that only the ones with bells are able to duplicate major boss rememberances.

It's then topped off with a boss fight that's equally ridiculous as it forces players to summon or resort to specific tactics that invalidate their character build. The saving grace here (no pun intended) is the reward from the boss and the castle's treasu

Despite its unique design, melodic sound when firing, and low weight and stat requirements, the Harp Bow is widely considered one of the weakest ranged weapons in Elden Ring . Its poor damage and range are disappointing, especially given how late in the game players can acquire

It has less poise, however, but the Fire Monk set makes up for that by being more accessible. It drops from Fire Monk enemies, and they're more common than those blasphemous Blackflame Monk variants, so players shouldn't have too much difficulty in farming all the pie

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

The first supposed brick wall that players will face in Elden Ring is Margit, the Fell Omen , just waiting to ambush some poor ambitious fool just outside Stormveil Castle. Players will soon realize that they'll need more levels one way or another if they are to defeat Margit without much frustrat
