Scattered across The Lands Between are seven paintings that are tied to scavenger hunt quests. These puzzles require the player to find the locations from which each painting was made. When the correct places are found, the player will discover Wandering Artist Spirits. Upon interaction with the spirits, they drop a unique item and disappear. Fans of the Dark Souls series will almost certainly think of the Painted Worlds whenever they come across interact-able paintings in FromSoftware’s Soulsborne gam

Updated August 18, 2024, by Hamza Haq: With the release of the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, RL1 runs have taken on a new meaning. A whole new area to explore means new challenges to overcome and new items to factor in. The DLC adds an entire game’s worth of items on top of the already massive list in the base game, upending the status quo entirely. Much of this build remains the same as the Shadow Realm only unlocks very late in the game. However, some additions have been made to keep things up to date.

It took many players a long time to formulate the best strategy when fighting her. Some use specific tactics to help defeat Malenia like ashes, others summoned other players, and yet other players decided to master all of her movements. Many players so far have found that the best tactic is using the bleed-out strategy as Malenia is extremely susceptible to

If the Crucible is the primal energy of the Erdtree and where all life once blended together, then it has to contain an incredibly large amount of power. This connection also shows the Erdtree's parasitic nature because it needs to feed off of the energy of the Crucible, unable to survive without an external source of energy. Since the Crucible is where life blends together, it can be assumed that the second source of energy for the Erdtree is the souls of the dead who will tell the Tarnished that they are waiting to return to the Erdtree. The reach of the Erdtree's roots allow it to gather those souls easily, and allows it to spread the Greater Will's Grace through the Lands Between . Regardless of how the energy is used, it's gathered through parasitic me

Like many of his half-siblings, Miquella has strayed away from following the Greater Will despite being chosen by it as a possible successor of the Elden Ring. Therefore, Miquella decides to create a great tree on his own in an attempt to replace the Erdtree and make it so that the citizens of the Lands Between don't need the Grace of the Greater Will. Miquella uses his own power to nurture the Haligtree, becoming its core in hopes that it will grow into a great tree that can rival the Erdtree, break his curse of eternal childhood, and free his twin sister Malenia from the curse of Scarlet Rot that eats away at her b

"If they use cheap boss i will use cheap tactics" proclaimed Fancy_Gonzalez2006 in a post accompanied by a video of the player wearing one of Elden Ring 's best armor sets, the Bull-Goat , and challenging action RPGs fighting the Godskin duo using Seppuku, Flask of Crimson Tears, and Beastman curveswo

Elden Ring still garners a massive, dedicated following almost five months after release, and its subreddit currently boasts more than 1.5 million users. With that many fans on the site, there's bound to be plenty of funny hijinks not only engaged in, but also shared with the entire commun

However, the right tactic can be employed for players with a strong enough attack that can one-shot the boss with a single hit. One way this works well is by using the anti-magic field to keep her from attacking letting you charge up a powerful b

While it might seem to be parasitic, the relationship between Miquella and his Haligtree is actually more symbiotic. In Elden Ring , Miquella's cocoon is the only form in which he's seen. Mohg, as someone obsessed with Miquella, cuts him out of the Haligtree and takes him away, and due to this, both the Haligtree and Miquella suffer, displaying their symbiotic relationship. The Haligtree is not a parasite, and it's unfortunate that its potential is never realized due to Mohg's actions. Since Miquella's status is unknown, if he's alive, it's possible that he might try to salvage the Haligtree, or he might start over if it can't be sa

There are a lot of bizarre characters in Elden Ring 's gigantic library of bosses . The Field boss Mad Pumpkin Head is one of many. He's not particularly memorable aside from his name. It conjures up a spooky, Halloween-style vis

Daxter999 embodied the ultimate duality of Elden Ring players by posting the following meme: "Me: "I won't use Claymore in this game. Also me:" and then a picture of the Claymore alongside a picture and quote from Bloodborne 's Ludwig, appropriate since the same studio created both ga

Understanding the Erdtree requires knowledge of the Lands Between before the Outer Gods, particularly the Greater Will, take an interest in it. Outer Gods that are seeking power would need to have a reason to choose the Lands Between as the place they seek to spread their influence. The Greater Will wouldn't put in the effort and send the Elden Ring to a land if it doesn't gain anything from controlling that land. What the Greater Will is likely after goes back to a point on the timeline before Elden Ring begins . The first hint at what the Greater Will wants is in the Aspects of the Crucible description, which says, " This is a manifestation of the Erdtree's primal vital energies - an aspect of the primordial crucible, where all life was once blended together." Any object or being capable of holding all life blended together would certainly be a target for the power-hungry Outer G
