Nox, translated from Latin, means "night." The Nox, wanting revenge on The Greater Will, sought to forge their Lord of Night with the use of Mimic Silver Tears. These are fluid beings that make up Elden Ring 's most overpowered Spirit Ashes , and can take on a multitude of forms. They are often seen as silver blobs but also appear as Nightfolk, one of the selectable races in the character creation menu. The Mimic Tear Ashes and stealth Mechanics Sekiro Silver Tear Husk item descriptions explain the Nox’s attempts to create a lord. It isn’t clear whether or not they succeeded, but if they had, the Nox wanted this lord to bring about the Age of Stars and overthrow the Greater W

One central character that ties into this plot is Ranni the Witch. She is aligned with the Nox’s goals and is hinted to be working with them in some capacity, as she has a teleporter in Renna’s Rise that links to Nokstella. Like the Nox, Ranni seeks to finish her Elden Ring quest by ushering in the Age of Stars, which is the achievement awarded for choosing her ending. She is also an Empyrean and child of Radagon/Marika. During her quest line, Ranni reveals that she was behind the Night of the Black Knives. It’s possible that Marika conspired with Ranni by telling her where Destined Death can be found since Marika is the one who removed it from the Elden Ring and hid

**Elden Ring ** features tons of references and nods to FromSoftware’s previous games. The infamous NPC Patches is notable, though many players are aware of his presence and know it as something of a recurring joke. However, several Easter eggs fuel the continuous speculation on a connection between the universes of Elden Ring , Bloodborne , and the Dark Souls series. There's no definitive proof that any of these share a continuity, but Elden Ring 's Easter eggs supply compelling implicati

While this is quite the task, many players make it their intention when beginning these games to achieve 100% completion. They want the extra challenge that comes with the difficulty of these games and to get their money's worth and full enjoym

Found sneaking about in almost every catacomb, these unavoidable enemies are full of heinous tricks and usually hunt in packs, making them consistently annoying throughout the game. Their attacks even pack an extra punch by causing bleed dam

The blood-lusting birds are too agile for ranged attacking and stay too far away to use melee, aggravating their target consistently. Slashing erratically isn’t all they can do, these skilled beings will even toss explosive barrels toward players, knocking their prey back with ease without a chance to coun

Bred for combat, Warhawks fly high above the battlefield with their feet of blades threatening to strike at those below. They become easier to deal with as the game goes on but are frequently encountered before abilities that work well against them are unloc

Chariots are very tank-like opponents and require the usage of several FP and HP flasks to safely conquer them. But once the Chariot is destroyed, sticking around is not recommended. As their last line of defense crumbles, Chariots explode the zone around them and deal crazy amounts of damage, making fleeing the area briefly a m

The first phase isn't too bad for players who are good at fighting long-distance, in fact, the whole boss fight is a bit easier for those players. But for players who are much more used to the typical hack-and-slash style the game promotes will have a far more difficult time. Thankfully, the bonfire is right beside the boss r

The intersections of Marika’s plans with those of the Nox and Ranni provide enough circumstantial evidence to suggest that Marika may be the lord the Nox tried to forge with the Silver Tears. If she truly is a Mimic, this also explains her ability to transform into Radagon. The plots these individuals set forth have been in play long before the events of **Elden Ring ** . When the player Tarnished arrives in The Lands Between, they will have a crucial role in the outcome of these plans. Assuming the player chooses Ranni’s Age of Stars ending, it's possible Marika and the Nox will be proven victori

What makes these creepy crawlies particularly irritating is that they are able to manifest portals in order to flank the player and are talented at spewing vomit that cause status effects. An encounter could lead to a storm of repeat assaults that stun its target to their demise. Due to these factors, the Revenants are considered more difficult than some of Elden Ring's boss

Malenia, Blade of Miquella is the most imitated Elden Ring character. She's quite possibly the toughest boss FromSoftware has ever created, and she processes a dynamic aesthetic that's unmatched. While there are plenty of custom designs out there, one particularly beautiful Elden Ring Malenia cosplay got FromSoftware's approval . Twitter user Sparrowhawk Cosplay released images that highlighted Malenia's best attributes, and they did it in a way that showed off an ultra-realistic and highly-detailed version of the Goddess of Rot. This cosplayer custom makes their own designs, making the costume even more impressive, warranting the amount of traction it got onl
