Elden Ring: 10 Best Invasion Locations

The least aesthetically apocalyptic invasion location, aka Lyndell Royal Capital, is a breath of fresh air for players. Its charming creatures and gold-roofed buildings make it seem like a fairytale land, until the snowmen murder the in-awe, distracted invader with bubb


The Veterans Prosthesis requires both strength and dexterity, but it provides lightning damage along with physical. Most weapons that provide additional damage require a related stat for scaling, but this weapon only scales from strength and dexter


First, there are the Arenas of Elden Ring . In the Lands Between open world, players can stumble across three arenas in the Limgrave, Caelid, and Leyndell Royal Capital areas (the last being patrolled by Gladiator enemies). These arenas can't be entered in Elden Ring 's current release, but modders have been able to uncover sand-covered battle arenas, assets for hostile NPCs, and a reception area with an inactive Site of Grace checkpoint. All these seem to be ingredients for a multiplayer PvP combat space similar to those seen in DLC for Dark Souls 1 and


The Shard of Alexander significantly increases a player’s attack power by 15%. This Talisman is highly recommended to use if players want to equip Eleanora’s Blade or the Rivers of Blood, as both of those weapons’ Weapon Skills are greatly enhanced by the Shard of Alexander . Players can find the Shard of Alexander when Iron Fist Alexander drops it upon finishing his quest l


The star fist, much like the Iron ball, has much higher base stats than other fist weapons. This weapon has low stats at first, but by the time you find it, your stats will ensure that it does more damage. Like many fist weapons, its base skill is Endure, which can be replaced by other ashes of


Within Elden Ring 's game files rests an impressive amount of cut content - assets, descriptions, and dialogue for outfits, weapons, game mechanics, and even quest-lines. Some of these assets may, like the once-cut content above, be revisited in future FromSoftware games . Alternately, a good chunk of these assets may be patched back into Elden Ring maps Ring with future updates or DLCs, granting players access to new areas, new challenges, and even new endi

This weapon's starting skill is Endure. While other Ashes of war can also be used, Endure is incredibly helpful as it boosts your poise and lowers damage received. Fist-type builds suffer from being easily hit, and continuing to fight through those hits is id


He's certainly one of the most obscure boss fights in Elden Ring when it comes to scope, but that's part of why the Mad Pumpkin Head is such a depressing character. There's more than one in the game, with one of them being in the Waypoint Ruins Cellar before reaching the sorceress Sel


One of the best combat-heavy horror games , the classic Doom embraces the chaos in every way possible, thanks to fun gameplay mechanics that encourage players to run screaming at the enemy even when low on health. "Easily lived up the hype and still one of the best pure modern FPS games ever made, if not the best," says Redditor DragonD


As it turns out, the Elder Dragon Greyoll is the mother of all dragons, which were dominant throughout The Lands Between in the prehistory before the Golden Order. The poor dragon has been ravaged by Malenia's Scarlet Rot along with her smaller draconic children surrounding her, and she can't even afford to defend hers


The Katar is not much different from the Caestus, except in terms of greater and piercing damage. This weapon requires a bit more dexterity to wield, but not much. It does scale for slightly more damage and has higher base damage, but for the most part, the base stats for these weapons are relatively the s


Players can find each variation of the Erdtree’s Favor in three different locations depending on where they’re attempting to find it. The Base is located at Fringefolk Hero’s Grave, the +1 is at the Subterranean Shunning-Grounds, and the +2 variant is in Leyndell, Ashen Capi

The Cipher Pata is the only fist weapon that changes your melee attacks from physical to purely holy damage. Faith is required to wield this weapon, and it is the only skill to scale the weapon's damage any further. It is unique and the perfect fist/faith-build wea

The Claw Talisman increases the player’s jump attack damage by 15%. This Talisman is useful to devastate enemies faster and with fewer jump attacks to get critical hits. Players can find the Claw Talisman in Stormveil Castle, atop a dead body on a watchto


One might assume FromSoftware’s habit of recycling assets and cutting near-complete content is a sign of laziness on the part of developers, but such an assumption couldn’t be farther from the truth. By reusing assets from an older game in a new game with similar themes ( Dark Souls to Elden Ring , in this case), developers at FromSoftware pragmatically chose not to recreate established assets from scratch, freeing their development team to work on new, innovative game concepts. Similarly, FromSoftware designers save promising pieces of cut content, eventually giving them new life in games with compatible premises and technical parameters. This "don’t reinvent the wheel" logic can be very clearly seen in the following pieces of Elden Ring content - content once cut from earlier Soulslikes and cut content in Elden Ring ’s game files that might return in DLCs or future R
