Unfortunately, once Remembrances are turned into runes, they're gone until a New Game Plus is started, in which players will have to defeat the same bosses once again to earn them - only the bosses get stronger with each restart. The good news is that the new game plus allows players to keep the weapons and levels they already earned from previous playthroughs, so it shouldn't be too difficult for an experienced Tarnished to obtain the Remembrance again; however, Elden Ring can take long to beat and might make the process for some too strenuous. One unique aspect to earning the same Remembrance twice is that powerful weapons can be dual-wielded to create an even stronger combination of attacks, making PvE and PvP more interesting. If players are only sticking to a single playthrough, though, turning the Remembrances into runes won't be worth the con of losing the special rewards from tough bosses, even if using Walking Mausoleums to duplicate them to help mitigate the l

One way to avoid the regret of spending or exchanging Remembrances in ways that don't benefit the player is to simply leave the essence in the inventory without making a rash decision. Considering all the pros and cons is important, and there are many quests and events that can be completed in **Elden Ring ** 's open world map without needing to make an absolute choice straight away. Once a decision has been made, however, Remembrances can either be given to Enia at the Roundtable Hold for special rewards, or they can be spent to receive a hefty sum of runes for purchasing items or leveling up. And, Co-Op Mechanics just as a backup, the new game plus mode does allow for all fifteen items to be earned more than once if players are willing to go down that route, and the Walking Mausoleums can at least offer seven extra chances, if players are diligent enough to seek them all

Kalé's cut questline reveals clever details about the Elden Ring merchant that are otherwise absent from the game itself. While he seems to be a carefree salesman in the base game, the questline paints Kalé as somebody who desires to learn about his roots and the origins of his people. His nomadic tribe is untethered by nature, but Kalé is consumed with a desire to learn where he came from and where his destiny will take him. His journey across the Lands Between also paints him in a more adventurous light, which contrasts with his sedentary lifestyle in the Church of Elleh that Elden Ring typically portr

While exploring the catacombs, _Elden Ring _ 's Tarnished will encounter regular enemies, like Imps and Omens. But it will give them the chance to gather the Crucible Scale Talisman and the Haligdrake Talisman +1. If the Tarnished decides to face the boss, they will have to fight Esgar, Priest of Blood, and his two dogs. Edgar and his dogs inflict Blood Loss, but if the Tarnished can defeat Esgar, they will get the Lord of Blood's Exultat

Of all the NPCs, Boc the Seamster is perhaps both the sweetest and saddest. Players first encounter him in Limgrave - a cringing, rat-like Demi-Human cast out by his tribe and cursed into the shape of a tree. After the player returns his mother's old sewing needle to him, Boc finds a new lease on life and becomes the Tarnished's personal tailor, letting the player modify certain outfits without spending any Runes. As the protagonist draws closer and closer to becoming Elden Lord, Boc starts to feel insecure about his appearance, which he judges clumsy and "ugly" in comparison to Elden Ring 's exiled Tarnished hero (even if the player uses the character creator to make a truly horrifying visa

Farum Azula is an end-game area, so if the Black Flame Tornado sounds interesting, it is possible to encounter this skill earlier in the game. It is the default skill for the Godskin Peeler, a dex-based weapon that can be buffed with magic. To retrieve the Godskin Peeler, players must head to the Windmill Village in the Altus Plateau and defeat the optional boss Godskin Apos

The merchant Kalé, a minor NPC that players can encounter early in **Elden Ring ** , could have revealed the Lands Between's darkest secrets in a cut questline. FromSoftware's epic fantasy RPG features a wide range of supporting characters for players to meet, ranging from fellow Tarnished to more bizarre fantasy creatures. The title's nomadic race of merchants can be a godsend on the player's quest to become Elden Lord, with Kalé appearing as a noteworthy example right when players step into the game's open world. However, a cut Elden Ring Kalé quest would have given the friendly salesman a much more important role in the st

Most of the ending scenariosfor Elden Rin g have a hopeful air, though there's debate among players about whether the Age Of The Stars, the Age Of Order, or the Age Of The Duskborn ending will bring about the best possible future for the Lands Between. The cruel Blessing of Despair ending can only be reached if Elden Ring players interact with and enable the defiling deeds of the blatantly ominous and aptly named Elden Ring NPC, the Dung Eater . One ending in particular, however, can accidentally be unlocked by players who haven't paid close enough attention to the game's lore, and locks out all other possible endings unless the player goes on to challenge two of the most difficult bosses in Elden Ring 's main game wo
