DecemberElden Ring's Biggest Nerfs Since Launch
As it happens, there's an absolute treasure trove of hilarious in-game moments captured by Redditors and many could justifiably be called the best of the subreddit, but these ten certainly have earned their spots among the funni
Elden Ring has been released to resounding critical acclaim, and on top of the enriching open-world design and gameplay, FromSoftware's vintage brand of subtle dark-fantasy storytelling surrounding its characters has been loved by longtime f
For the most part, members of the Elden Ring gaming community have vocally praised FromSoftware's decision to reduce the potency of the Corpse Piler skill (a long-ranged blood splash ability iconic to the Rivers Of Blood katana) and the Bloodhound Step skill (a smoke-veiled dodge ability that carries players a long distance). In previous versions of Elden Ring , these two skills were seen by many players as overpowered, particularly in PvP. As of patch 10.6, the damage and Hemorrhage status build-up of Corpse Piler has been greatly reduced at long range, forcing Elden Ring Rivers Of Blood katana users to close with their PvP opponents to deal high amounts of damage. By the same token, the Bloodhound Step skill has been adjusted so that repeated uses of it become less effective over time, forcing Elden Ring players to use it more tactically. However, these weapon Skill revisions are just the tip of the iceburg that is patch 10.6; many other subtler changes have been made to the gameplay and interface of Elden Ring , bringing the game closer to FromSofware's original intent for better or wo
The most substantial nerf Bandai Namco levied on Elden Ring was the alteration to the effect of the Ash of War Royal Knight’s Resolve. The way Royal Knight’s Resolve used to function in Elden Ring was that it would allow the Tarnished to deal 80% more damage with the next hit they threw with any of their weapons. This meant that a player could have a disposable weapon with the Ash of War, use it, and then shift to any other armament (be it a sword, staff, or finger seal) and deal a tremendous amount of damage. This made Royal Knight’s Resolve essential to any PvP or speed running PvE build, as when used in conjunction with a spell like Comet Azure, every boss became a one-hit kill just like YouTuber Nipthemad shows in the tragic video game endings ab
The game creatively blends high fantasy with seafaring and swashbuckling elements, and it uses real-time or turn-based combat. Deadfire was strongly received for its storytelling and immersive role-playing mechan
The known Empyreans are Queen Marika, Malenia the Severed, Miquella, Lunar Princess Ranni, and the Gloam-Eyed Queen -- though, the latter's lineage is unknown. And given her place in Elden Ring 's boss power rankings , it's unsurprising to know that Malenia is the strongest of them all. Even Ranni believed that only she, Malenia, and Miquella were worthy of the Empyrean ti
There are many hidden details Redditors found in Elden Ring , but sometimes an obvious detail that one notices in the game can come back in handy in a way the player never could have imagined. Such is the case with Over_Supermarket_609 's Looney Tunes -like idea during a multiplayer ma
Horseback riding is a pretty important aspect of Elden Ring , with players able to unlock the steed, Torrent, after finding three Sites of Grace. But horses are also integral to many of the game's bosses, and after vanquishing one of those bosses, terrible_hero found themselves in a scene right out of a com
RPGs are one such genre, with their longer runtimes and immersive worlds becoming more palatable in the handheld form factor. There are plenty of RPGs that go well with Steam Deck, from the timeless Skyrim to the Persona JRPG ser
However, the Moonveil was shadow nerfed in Elden Ring ’s 1.03 update. The health damage, poise damage, and range of Transient Moonlight were all decreased, with the poise damage being significantly nerfed. This change forced players into situation where if they wanted to break someone’s poise, they would have to hit with both the katana and moonbeam with Transient Moonlight. This practically made the sword a slightly better katana with Unsheathe - a far less attractive option. And because patch 1.03 was the same patch that fixed Arcane scaling in Elden Ring and thus made Rivers of Blood overpowered, the Moonveil largely fell out of favor despite not being the worst kat
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
For one, her Cleanrot Knights were unshakably loyal to her, especially since this required them to contract the Rot themselves after spending so much time around her. Likewise, she indirectly inspired those who would become known as the Kindred of Rot, believing Malenia to be a goddess that would usher in a new age of
