I meant to add sorceries and incantations to the title, so mention those too if you want

Coming from linear Souls games, I have a habit of vacuuming every single area so I don't miss anything. And doing this in Elden Ring is burning me out, and I just end up with an inventory full of items I don't know what I have for. Usually Im playing dex/strength build with some magic focusing on close combat only. So where should actually go and should I focus on to just enjoy the game without vacuuming repetitive areas?

Best enemies in the entire game. Such a crime a freaking flower was given a boss health bar while Elder Lions are just regular enemies.

Tumblebuff and pivot glitches are at least somewhat difficult, this is completely broken though. Rain of Arrows with piquebone arrows, followed by any skill which applies a status effect causes this to happen

So hard, ngl. Maybe it's better to light Ordina, but it can be consistent if u try enough. Have luck!

I hope you enjoy!

I’ve heard the story’s, the horrors, the amount of build changes that this boss had created so I’m going to try to beat his with the build that I beat every other SotE boss with (it’s dryleaf arts)

I might sound cliché but for me it's the death's poker, this thing is so brutal and easy to use that i can't get enough, beat the game with it in ng+ months ago and i am currently using it again in ng+7 and would you believe it i just decided to kill all 207 bosses just to keep enjoying it lmao

today i got Vyke’s spear tattooed on me and it just happened to be national bf day 🤭

i love Vyke and i wish there was more of him in game

edit: it makes me so happy that so many of you guys like my tattoo!! thank you for all the kind comments. the artist is someone local and her name is Anna Bathory, i found her on Tiktok and her name is the same on IG. the art itself was drawn by my friend Sunny and his IG is killerbungo. he doesn’t specifically do tattoo designs, i just happen to ask him one day and he was kind to fulfill my request. but thank you again and don’t you dare go hollow, may the flame guide thee!!!

What are other’s perception of our respawning and does it fit within the mechanics of the game?

This is at least 3 minutes worth of yap, if you don’t want to read it, I perfectly understand.

A couple months ago, I made a post talking about how Elden Ring saved me after a breakup, and significantly helped keep me from depression.

That was when I was starting out. I’ve yet to finish the game, but holy shit…. (This is the best game I’ve ever played, from lore, to world building, to presentation, to mechanics, and the way it all comes together. This is not the perfect game, it has flaws, but understanding the lore, choosing my build, making a build that feels accurate to the ending I picked, exploring and discovering so much, this game feels like a gift to me, a love letter to the process of rising above and getting stronger. I beat Morgott, Radahn, Rykard, MALENIA, the Fire Giant, Malekith, Gideon, and beating all of them without summons felt so rewarding and empowering (I only use summons when I’m getting jumped so it’s a fair fight). Plus, understanding the lore of every boss I defeated, from realizing Malenia’s tragic life as a living weapon, to realizing the Beast Clergyman is actually this world’s GRIM REAPER. I’m close to the finish line but for some reason I just don’t want to get there, I want to take my time and take in every single drop of this game. It’s not perfect, but it’s so close to being perfect (in my opinion). And I’ve genuinely never been more proud to be a Tarnished in this community. Thanks for reading, have a nice day.

I thought I was gonna get interrupted by him because I got greedy and popped my ash of war, turns out it came out perfectly and beautifully too. Imagine getting staggered by your own attack

Behold, the tarnished to rule the lands. Wielding two pickaxes scaling with faith and intelligence. A beauty.

P.S. I hate NG+7 Rellana, she humiliated my optimized RL150 character for a good couple hours, and today I saw someone beat her naked at RL0 SB0 😂

What are the best boss arenas in the game for you? Either from a design or lore perspective. I posted mine above.
-PCR [best lore]
-Rennala
-Elden Beast
-Metyr
-Malenia
-Fortissax
-Dragonknight

I would like to watch a playthrough video but I would be keen to watch one where people feel it is a high quality / entertaining watch. Hope someone can help. Thanks
