Simply lure each one with a throwable knife and fight them one by one. That's 5,000 Runes; conveniently enough, Warmaster's Shack is nearby and has a Site of Grace. A word of warning: don't farm these five trolls at night ; a Deathbird boss will appear and it's a rather tough fight for new play

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.

The second method for obtaining the Nagakiba involves completing Yura's questline to a certain degree or at least interacting with it in some capacity and then heading to the Mountaintops of the Giants.

Redmane Greatshield : Boasting some of the best Fire damage resistance of any Greatshield, the Redmane Greatshield is another great option, especially for builds that aren't looking for a heavier shield due to its moderate weight of 14. With its distinctive design, the Redmane Greatshield resembles a giant fang and bears the crest of a red-maned lion. The only real issue with this great-looking shield is that it can take some time to f

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

The confrontation with Yura (as well as Nerijust) will be a tough fight, especially if you're under-leveled, but thankfully like most NPC encounters in Elden Ring , both of these fighters can be easily stun-locked or staggered. You'll also probably want to touch the Grace inside Murkwater Cave before starting this fight (which houses the Patches questline ) for an easy respawn area in case Yura wipes the floor with you.

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 merchant locations guide, just remember that only the ones with bells are able to duplicate major boss rememberances.

Players getting obliterated by the Draconic Tree Sentinel (Capital Outskirts) at the gates of Leyndell should be happy to learn that there is a cheesing tactic that can take care of this particular boss with very little effort required on their part. All they need to equip themselves with is a lot of patience and the Poison Mist Incantati

Updated August 12, 2024, by Hamza Haq: Exploration in Elden Ring remains one of its strongest selling points in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, allowing players to explore a vast open world that's not afraid to hide things from the player, demanding thorough exploration to reveal all its secrets. Legacy Dungeons are the perfect examples of this phenomenon, showcasing FromSoftware's mastery of world-building in the form of large, sprawling dungeons to get lost

The Elden Beast poses a mighty challenge that wraps up the entire storyline, and although it isn't the most difficult boss in the game, many players still find it quite difficult to beat, especially if they struggle to find the right tools for the job. Those playing a mage character can consider themselves lucky, though, as this class can deploy a spell that is arguably the easiest way to beat the Elden Be

Crossed-Tree Towershield : Another shield that doesn't technically have anything wrong with it all, the Crossed-Tree Towershield is yet again Greatshield that lands in the B-tier by default, having decent stats, but being outshone by most of the other shields on this list. Nevertheless, with strong resistances against Fire and Holy damage, a decent Guard Boost, a sleek design, and easy accessibility, it's no surprise that this Greatshield has its share of dedicated f

Night's Cavalry appear depending on the time of day too, but they're always seen at night. All of them either drop their signature armor/weapons or valuable Ashes of War like the Bloodhounds Step. The final two Night's Cavalry encountered in Consecrated Snowfield even leave an extra Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone for players who manage to defeat them. The ten Night's Cavalry can be found in the following spots:

Deeproot Depths: hangs out near the Nameless Eternal City grace. This one is also accessed by destroying the skulls on the top rather than on the feet. Do so by dropping down onto it from the roots above or shooting them with a bow.
