While the basic Dagger can be used as an excellent weapon for a challenge run through Elden Ring , the unique daggers found throughout the game can be exceptionally powerful. In general, like swords, katanas, and other blades, daggers often apply a Bleed status to enemies—an extremely strong status effect in Elden Ring . This means that despite their limitations, daggers tend to be a high-damage, high-mobility choice that rewards players' skills even more than other opti
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 Limveld Map Expansion 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.
From there, they can climb the massive Erdtree root ahead of them and wind along its path until coming to a balcony and a waiting boss door. Here, players will need to face the ghost of the First Elden Lord, Godfrey. After defeating the boss, they can move up to the Queen's Bedchamber Site of Grace and then up the long stairs from there to face Morgott, The Omen King.
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
Scorpion's Stinger : The Scorpion's Stinger is unique in its ability to apply Scarlet Rot to an enemy. When combined with a talisman such as the Kindred of Rot's Exultation , the Scorpion's Stinger can dish out serious dam
To the southeast of Gatefront Ruins, along the road, there should be a bridge. Players can cross that bridge and keep going until they see two trolls pulling a large black caravan . Tailing the troll caravan is one Kaiden horseman and several commoner enemies and foot soldiers who easily die in one to two h
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.
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
Crystal Knife : While it can boast impressive base stats, the Crystal Knife has relatively poor scaling that sets it back. However, it is one of the few options for a dagger player looking to explore an Intelligence-based bu
The Light Crossbow is also a more stable weapon than the various classes of bows. Unfortunately, this doesn't negate the fact that all longbows have better damage and range than this weapon. Archer builds will want to replace this with a better weapon as soon as possible, but it's not a bad weapon over
Dagger : The only redeeming quality of the Dagger is that it can be upgraded to +25 with Smithing Stones, but even then, it is outshone by alternatives like the Bloodstained Dagger. Still, a decent option for those willing to invest in
Blade of Calling : Its special ability shares an animation with the Black Knife's Blade of Death, but deals slightly less damage in most cases. Still, the Blade of Calling can be an excellent choice for a Faith build in Elden Ri
After clearing the Castle Morne grounds, players have two choices here: go past the Pumpkin Head enemy or turn right before that enemy. Either option will lead to the Castle Morne Ramparts. Once on top of the walls, explore the battlements a bit and look for Castle Morne soldiers fighting the Misbegotten or Demi-Human enem
Updated August 13, 2024 by Erik Petrovich : Now that the Elden Ring DLC has been out for a while, it's no secret that General Radahn makes a return at the end of the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, as Miquella's consort, and as the final boss. His new armor set and weapons can be purchased after defeating this version of Radahn, and this guide has been updated to reflect these new Elden Ring General Radahn build options. The Starscourge cosplay wouldn't be complete without a series of Gravity-based attacks, too, so this guide has been updated to also include some new recommendations on the best spells and Ashes of War for the best General Radahn build Elden Ring players can put together.
