Ranni, Fia, and Rogier are three NPCs the Tarnished can encounter in the Elden Ring . Fia is found in the Roundtable Hold, while one of Elden Ring 's best-supporting characters Rogier can first be found in Stormveil castle and will later move to the Roundtable Hold. Ranni is first encountered at the Church of Elleh, but there she goes by the name Renna. While each NPC has personal questlines and motives, the three NPCs' questlines intersect at various poi

The giant Elden Beast’s patterns are tough to learn due to rematches needing to re-fight Radagon. Its movements are also strange yet quick, as it can swim around the arena to follow the player wherever they go. This is in addition to its holy attacks also homing in on the player. As befitting a beast of its power, players never feel safe when fighting the Elden Be

Elden Ring has proven to be incredibly popular, and while the active player base has dwindled recently alongside many completing the game (or giving up), FromSoftware's titles typically retain a smaller, dedicated multiplayer community. Many flock to PvP, and will engage in duels outside the gate to the Academy of Raya Lucaria, but other longterm players also climb through many new game plus tiers both solo and in co-op. LukeYui's Seamless Co-op mod will likely contribute to the continuing health of the game, making it less frustrating for players to team up and see all of Elden Ring 's best and worst endin

Just as Malenia, Blade of Miquella, was small compared to her giant brother-in-law, so too were her Cleanrot Knights few in number compared to Radahn's legions. Each of these Cleanrot Knights, however, were deadly forces to be reckoned with – heavily armored, skilled in the use of spears, scythes, and thrusting swords, and even taught holy incantations by the saintly Miquella himself. Each of these Cleanrot Knights, according to the descriptions for their armor, " vowed to fight alongside Malenia, despite the inevitable, if gradual, putrefaction of their flesh. Their acceptance of their fate made these battles fiercest of all." Fanatically devoted to both Malenia and her beguiling Elden Ring demigod brother Miquella , fearless in the face of death, the Cleanrot Knights were celebrated for their " celebrated for their undefeated campaign in the Shattering," marching from victory to victory up until their final confrontation with Radahn's army in Cae

The Leyndell Catacombs are accessible through the Subterranean Shunning-Grounds, a location easily missed while exploring the Royal Capital, with the entrance near where Elden Ring 's Mogh's Shackle is located . From the Underground Roadside Site of Grace, head to the large room with the pipes and Imps. Use the pipes to reach the bottom, Guardian Remembrance Guide where the two Giant Crayfish are. Run south, past one of the Giant Crayfish, to a crack in the w

Rogier will then need a black Knifeprint. Once that is retrieved, he will give more background information on the Black Knife assassins. They are an order made up entirely of women who wore the Elden Ring Black Knife Armor Set and whose knives held some power of the Rune of Death. Rogier asks to examine the Knifeprint to find who ordered the assassination, and because half of his body is suffused with death, he believes he can see

FromSoftware's unique brand of multiplayer is a creation oddly personal to Miyazaki. According to an old Eurogamer interview, the idea for Demon's Souls ' co-op was born out of Miyazaki getting his car stuck in the snow. Strangers spontaneously pushed his car to get it moving again before suddenly disappearing, the same way Elden Ring 's colorful phantoms fade after winning a boss fight. Without an opportunity to thank them, Miyazaki referred to the encounter as " a connection of mutual assistance between transient people ." It's an interesting anecdote, but it also provides some insight on Miyazaki's - and by extension, FromSoftware's - design philosophy. Elden Ring 's multiplayer mechanics may be obtuse, but they're an important part of the game's vis

Elden Ring _ is full of hidden lore and intersecting quests, but the NPCs Rogier, Fia, and Ranni have the coolest and most lore-heavy quests. While each NPC has their personal quests, each of their quests overlaps at brief moments to reveal more about themselves and the history of the Land Between. These particular questlines serve an important role in the player's journey to becoming _Elden Ring 's Elden Lord , as it expands upon some of the hidden themes of the Lands Between and may even inform their decision over which ending to pur

At the time of writing, the Seamless Co-op mod has over 170,000 unique downloads after first releasing in late May. The last 30 days on Elden Ring 's Steam Charts page shows a peak player count of 107,000. These numbers aren't necessarily directly comparable, and Steam doesn't constitute the entirety of the player base, but it's interesting to see just how much of the active PC community has opted into improved co-op mechanics. Elden Ring is FromSoftware's most approachable game in decades, which only serves to highlight the convoluted multiplayer mechanics. They are clearly not a major detriment to many's enjoyment of the game, but there is a large chunk of players actively utilizing an alternative sys
