Even though Medium Shields aren't as agile as Small Shields, they do a good job reducing lethal blows. The Beastman's Jar-Shield is a decent Medium Shield that can negate up to 68 Holy Damage once a player applies Sanctified Affin

The secret to obtaining this greatbow is only just now beginning to get out among Elden Ring players. It involves using a bow to drop large pots on the moving chariot trap in the Tomb of Knowledge. The Erdtree Greatbow stands out among the bows by splitting its damage between physical damage (60) and recent Eldenringportal blog post Holy damage (65). As a greatbow, this weapon also has excellent ra

Once again, a named NPC will invade and players must defeat them to get the weapon. As for Mohgwyn’s Sacred Spear, they’ll have to travel to Mohgwyn Dynasty Mausoleum and defeat the Lord of Blood himself in order to get his weapon. All of these weapons are not necessary to have on hand, but they make for a nice range of options. Of the three, though, Rivers of Blood is the most usable, so go for that one at the very least. Of course, these will all need to be upgraded in order to get the full effect.

FromSoftware has always been known to go above and beyond when it comes to creating unique weapons, armors, and shields, so players shouldn't be surprised that Elden Ring features a Greatshield in the shape of a Giant Ant's head. The best part is that this Greatshield has Holy Damage Negation of 57, which is more than enough to survive the Elden Beast's onslaught of holy attacks. But, there's another reason why Ant's Skull Plate should be considered Elden Ring's best holy shield: it causes Poison build-up (90) and raises Immunity by 60 poi

It's only natural, then, for players to want to emulate such a legendary warrior, and Elden Ring gives players a means of doing just that. His sword, bow, and armor are all unlockable after he is defeated, but there's a lot more that goes into becoming General Radahn than cheap imitation.

Another potential downside of this otherwise excellent set is that it's obtainable quite late in the game, only after reaching the Mountaintops of the Giants. It can be grabbed in Shack of the Lofty located on the frozen river. By this point, most players will likely have acquired several other armor sets that overshadow this simple yet effective att

Pair Moonveil with another Int-based katana like the Meteorite Blade to take advantage of shared scaling, or use classics like Rivers of Blood or the Hand of Malenia to complement Moonveil's buildup of Bleed.

This weapon has the Mighty Shot weapon skill. The Mighty Shot skill does a lot more damage than a standard shot but requires the player to draw the bow back fully before firing. This is the only light bow with the Mighty Shot skill. Since the Composite Bow is faster than most other bows, it allows the player to fire Mighty Shots faster than the larger bows that typically get this sk

This does more damage per shot than all other crossbows except the Arbalest and Pulley Crossbow, and the latter only does one point of damage more per shot. The Heavy Crossbow is also very stable when used on horseba

The Greatsword of Radahn (Lord) and (Light ) are both rewarded after beating Radahn at the end of Shadow of the Erdtree . Indeed, once you beat this incredibly difficult final DLC boss, you can purchase his full armor set, called the Young Lion's set.

Knight builds and melee characters aren't left behind when it comes to protecting themselves from Magical harm. The Banished Knight Set - one of the most beautiful armor sets in the game, is also a competent form of protection against Magic. It's also peak Elden Bling regardless of whether it's the altered or original version. Sure enough, the physical defense value is one of the highest in the g

The Soldier's Crossbow is a common ranged weapon wielded by many enemies in Elden Ring , but due to its low drop rate, some players might never encounter it. That said, they aren't missing much. With its average range, damage, and simplistic design, this crossbow is the epitome of "nothing special" and is easily overshadowed by almost any other ranged weapon in the g

In a game as massive as Elden Ring, there are any number of ways to build one’s character and engage the many powerful boss enemies that inhabit The Lands Between. For most of the game, one really can’t go wrong with how they develop their character, but that may not be entirely true when it comes time to confront the final few bosses near the end. Unless one possesses truly top-tier skills, this is probably the time to re-spec into a more-focused build capable of using one’s loadout to the fullest. There are many of these to choose from of course, but one that focuses on bleed is probably the most effective for struggling players. So, let’s get into it.
