RELATED: Elden Ring: How To Play With Friends That’s not the only thing that Elden Ring borrows from Dark Souls 2, though. Power Stancing is a feature that lets players equip two weapons of the same type to access a unique moveset. In Elden Ring, Power Stancing is a sure way to maximize your damage at the cost of major Stamina usage. It works pretty similarly to how it did in Dark Souls 2, but updated to suit Elden Ring’s unique combat system....
Margit’s Shackle is an odd item to start. Its description claims that it’s a “fetish bathed in golden magic” used to confine an Omen, specifically the Omen known as Margit. In practice, this means that the boss known as Margit can be kept from moving for a short period of time. It’s a tool with a relatively exclusive usage. Except, that’s apparently not the only use of Margit’s Shackle. Elden Ring players are finding odd ways to use the item that may be helpful to others....
Though they can theoretically be fought in any order, Godrick the Grafted, the final boss of the Stormveil Castle legacy dungeon, is likely to be most players’ first brush with a shardbearer Demigod. While undoubtedly tough, Godrick is certainly beatable should the proper tactics be employed, though he’s still no slouch and will require even those familiar with FromSoftware’s Soulsborne games to prove their worth. The thrill of besting him makes for one of the most satisfying moments in the early game, but triumphant players may be confused about where to go next....
A common way to do this is for Elden Ring players to hide in a hard-to-reach spot, wait for invaders to come to their game, and then collect the runes after the invader gets frustrated and leaves and/or falls to their death. Many Elden Ring AFK rune farmers use this method, but it doesn’t always work in their favor. Elden Ring players have figured out where the popular AFK rune farming hiding spots are and have been taking out rune farmers with relative ease....
That’s what happened with Reddit user Kakattikoi, who made a discovery about Elden Ring combat after playing the game for over 400 hours. While other Elden Ring players may already know about it, based on the comments on Kakattikoi’s post, it seems that many others had no idea. As it turns out, Elden Ring players can utilize a specific item in the game to give them a big advantage over golem enemies, making some tough encounters that much easier....
Meanwhile, other legendary Elden Ring players like Let Me Solo Her have defeated Malenia more than 2,000 times. This shows the wide disparity in the skill level of Elden Ring players. Regardless, despite being one of the hardest to beat, Malenia remains one of the most famous bosses of Elden Ring. Her millions of fans regularly come up with amazing artwork to appreciate her, while some people look for minute intricacies in the character and her background....
So is the case with the Envoy Crown in Elden Ring. The Envoy Crown is a Helm worn by the Oracle Envoys, enemies that are primarily found at Leyndell, Royal Capital and Miquella’s Haligtree. The Envoy Crowns seem innocent enough on the surface, but their item description hints at something more disturbing. As pointed out by Reddit user Pirate-CoConut, the Envoy Crown item description says: “No one knows what the cloth hides, but some claim to have heard a faint whimpering from inside....
The battle against the Fire Giant battle takes place near the end of Elden Ring and players are tasked with fighting a creature several times their size. He has a unique move set with several area-of-effect attacks that may catch players off guard. As with many of Elden Ring’s bosses, Fire Giant also has two phases, although he only has one health bar. Additionally, this fight isn’t a standard encounter, as it has a small gimmick attached to it....

On top of being the largest SoulsBorne game to date (at least in its base form), Elden Ring is also arguably the most approachable of the games, since its open world offers many options for progression. Because of this, tons of people are getting in on the game, even Elon Musk, who shared some brief details of his build. Here’s how to copy that build easily.

RELATED: Elden Ring: How To Use Great Runes One of these shortcuts is between Limgrave and Liurnia of the Lakes.

With this strategy, you can skip that whole sordid place (and its relentless sword-birds) to instead progress through another open world area and get to Raya Lucaria sooner....
The elegant counterpoint to this difficulty argument for FromSoftware games, is that they aren’t overtly hard at all, but instead they simply require a dedicated amount of time from the player to learn boss and enemy attacks. Death in a game like Elden Ring is not considered as a state of failure like in many AAA games, and every death leaves the player better equipped to progress.

The story of let me solo her focuses on an incredibly skilled player who plays as a man wearing a jar on his head and wielding two katanas.

One of these rumors, however, may shed some light on how Elden Ring might be straying more towards the Dark Souls series, as opposed to Sekiro. Specifically, this is coming from a rumor that From Software’s upcoming title may include classes, something that has become a staple of the series in both the Dark Souls trilogy and Bloodborne.

Elden Ring currently has mixed reviews on Steam owing mostly to its performance issues. Some PC players with graphics cards like the RTX 3080, have still reportedly been experiencing stuttering, and less than desirable framerates at 1080p. This is rather concerning when one considers that the game’s Steam page recommends users have a GTX 1070 graphics card if they want to run the game smoothly.

While the bosses in Elden Ring are considerably more difficult than standard enemies, with standout bosses like Malenia and the Elden Beast to name a couple of examples, there are a number of enemies that can cause quite a lot of irritation to players. Perhaps the most famous of which being the Flame Chariots that ram into the player at high speeds. However, one player recently noticed a rather subtle, if not disconcerting, detail regarding the design of the Flame Chariots....
Of the many enemies Elden Ring has to offer, Walking Mausoleums may be the largest.
