Depending on how much you want to invest into Endurance, you will likely need to use one of the four Arsenal talismans that can be found throughout the Lands Between (the Great-Jar's version being the strongest). The best arrows to use with the Starscourge build are Radahn's Spears, as they gain a boost to damage when paired with this weapon specifically.

With this mod, summoning becomes better in many ways. They don't disappear after a boss and can be summoned multiple times without players having to rest. As a cherry on top, players can summon help in locations where they weren't permitted, which can make for some interesting combat scenarios in their own ri

In addition to his armor and weapons, there are Talismans and other items that can play into the strengths of a Starscourge-inspired build. The Carian Filigreed Crest reduces FP consumption for weapon skills, which is incredibly helpful for the Starscourge Greatsword's high-FP Ash of War. The Shard of Alexander increases the damage of this ability, too. Choose the Claw Talisman if you want to spend most of your time in close combat, or the Arrow's Reach Talisman to increase the range and effectiveness of the Lion Greatbow .

Elden Ring is a massive game, so chances are good that it’ll take more than one playthrough to see everything. Seeing as how starting new game plus in Elden Ring is as easy as resting at the Roundtable of Lost Grace and selecting the "Begin Journey 2" option, it can be tempting to do so without making any preparations. Don’t do that. There are certain things that can only be done with most of the map accessible and most of the stores unlocked. If one wants to start new game plus on the best possible footing, there are a few steps that should be taken first.

General Radahn was a master of Gravitational Sorcery and an imposing, terrifying warrior in close combat. Being a heavy bruiser and a master of Sorcery is a tricky business to build stats around, but with the right tools it's not impossible to blend these polar opposites.

The expansion has introduced two new powerful Greatshields, and with the latest balance patches, Elden Ring's post-launch content appears to be wrapped up. While the Greatshield tier list has remained largely accurate since the game's release, some entries have been expanded with additional details about their strengths and updated rankings reflecting both the base game and its DLC. Additionally, images for every Greatshield in the game have been added to the list for better clar

Icon Shield : Just scraping in alongside the most disappointing Greatshields out there, the Icon Shield only has 95% physical damage negation, but its passive ability does slowly regenerate the user's health (3 HP per sec, non-upgradable), potentially making it worth the trade-off in most situations. Elemental stats aren't great either, but with a weight of just 11.5 and reduced Strength requirements, it may appeal to players experimenting with unique builds. Additionally, the Icon Shield's unusual shape and stylish appearance add to its app

Radahn was a beefy guy, so having a high Vigor reflects this large Health pool. A 23 in Endurance means you will be able to equip the majority of General Radahn's armor, though you may need to use the Radagon Soreseal or the Great-Jar Arsenal Talisman to push your Equip Load high enough to avoid fat rolling. A 50 in Strength takes advantage of the Starscourge Greatsword's scaling, while a 21 in Intelligence allows use of the Meteorite Staff and the Rock Sling spell, both tied to Gravitational Sorceries. The above is calculated for a Level 100 player who started as a Wretch.

Cuckoo Greatshield : The Cuckoo Greatshield is an excellent option for those looking to absorb some Magic damage , but unfortunately, it's outshone by the Eclipse Crest Greatshield in just about every way. Still, this shield remains a great one for Magic and Holy defense if the player hasn't found the Eclipse Crest yet. Another appealing aspect is its stunning design, which pairs seamlessly with many medium and heavy armor sets, allowing for a stylish and cohesive character appeara

A huge part of the Soulsborne game is reading item descriptions to figure out the details of a particular weapon, armor, consumable, or anything else along the same lines . The crux of these games is figuring out how items work with an online community that wastes no time in writing in-game messages and posting on forums and the like about the mechanics governing specific it

Liurnia of the Lakes (Central): Walks in the water in front of the Raya Lucaria Crystal Tunnel. The skulls on top must be destroyed from above using a bow. Do so from the nearby tombstones jutting out from the cliffside. They can be accessed by first warping to the East Raya Lucaria grace and heading east to the cliffside.

The first of these is the Nightfarer Guide Statues. These statues resembling a creepy old woman can be found all over The Lands Between and they always point to a dungeon. If one is encountered, make sure to approach and check it. If there's a button prompt, hit it and follow the ghostly trail of light that emerges; it'll surely lead to a nearby dungeon. If no button prompt appears, then one can (usually) rest assured that they've already cleared the area's most important hidden spot. Aside from the statues, it's usually just good to just be extra thorough and look for hidden drops or not-so-obvious dips in a cliffside. Unexplained concentrations of enemies are also a good indicator.
