The first supposed brick wall that players will face in Elden Ring is Margit, the Fell Omen , just waiting to ambush some poor ambitious fool just outside Stormveil Castle. Players will soon realize that they’ll need more levels one way or another if they are to defeat Margit without much frustrat

One can always use their favorite Ash summon, but there are a couple that are particularly good for fighting bosses near the end of the game. The first is the Mimic Tear Ashes of course. It doesn’t do a ton of direct damage like it did at Elden Ring’s outset, but it still has plenty of health and excels at distracting the enemy. Better yet, the summon uses all of your equipped weapons and items, meaning it can help trigger blood loss on enemies. If one doesn’t already have it, it can be fought and obtained near Nokron.

Updated January 22, 2025 by Erik Petrovich : When it comes to the best Bows in Elden Ring, players have a lot of choices to sort between. Though there are less than a dozen of any one Bow type, you have Short Bows, Longbows, Crossbows, and all of the other sub-types, there’s a lot of options when it comes to the best Elden Ring bows. This nightfarer guide to All Bows in Elden Ring, Ranked has been updated to include some more detailed location information for each entry to help players hunt down these best Elden Ring Bow weapons more efficiently and get their ranged builds going fas

It was a mechanical cheese that freezes Radagon’s AI, immobilizing him for the entire fight. To carry out this particular feat, players need to skip the pre-fight cutscene and sprint up to the boss before he manages to take a step in their direction . That should render him unable to move, making the rest of this phase childishly easy and allowing players to conserve their flasks and other resources for the Elden Be

Bows and other ranged weapons are generally not the best weapon in games like Elden Ring , since there is more of a focus on melee combat. Bows, crossbows, and cannons are slow, it’s easy to miss, they require ammunition, their damage generally is low, and many ranged weapons are not compatible with the best Ashes of War , which upgrade equipment. That being said, these weapons have their uses, and players will come across situations where ranged tools are the most efficient weapon for dispatching enem

From there, they can climb the massive Erdtree root ahead of them and wind along its path until coming to a balcony and a waiting boss door. Here, players will need to face the ghost of the First Elden Lord, Godfrey. After defeating the boss, they can move up to the Queen’s Bedchamber Site of Grace and then up the long stairs from there to face Morgott, The Omen King.

To get Crepus’ Black-Key Crossbow, Elden Ring players must must use a Stonesword Key on the Imp Statue Roundtable Hold. Head to Hewg and look for the stairs that lead to the lower level. The Stonesword Key door is around the cor

In a game as massive as Elden Ring, there are any number of ways to build one’s character and engage the many powerful boss enemies that inhabit The Lands Between. For most of the game, one really can’t go wrong with how they develop their character, but that may not be entirely true when it comes time to confront the final few bosses near the end. Unless one possesses truly top-tier skills, this is probably the time to re-spec into a more-focused build capable of using one’s loadout to the fullest. There are many of these to choose from of course, but one that focuses on bleed is probably the most effective for struggling players. So, let’s get into it.

Getting to Mohg is a bit more convoluted than getting to Morgott as players will need to enter and get through Mohgwyn Palace, which is a notoriously punishing zone that’s relatively hidden. Players can either progress White-Faced Varre’s quest and use the Pureblood Knight’s Medal to instantly teleport there, or use a Waygate in the Consecrated Snowfield , located Northwest of Yelough Anix Ruins.

As for weapon choice, the Eleonora’s Poleblade does well against single enemies, but struggles against groups; use the katana or spear for those. The spear does well against massive enemies with exploitable blindspots, such as dragons, but its weapon art leaves the user exposed to smaller enemies/bosses with a high stagger threshold. The katana is good overall, so it’ll probably be one’s weapon of choice more often than not. Its drawback is that it leaves the user exposed if it doesn’t either kill or stagger the target with the opening series of slashes. In short, consider the enemy’s strengths and weaknesses and choose accordingly. The same goes for the Ash summons and the tears used in the Wondrous Physick. This build isn’t a guaranteed win every time, but it should make many encounters go much more easily once one gets used to it. So, why not give it a shot?

Simply lure each one with a throwable knife and fight them one by one. That’s 5,000 Runes; conveniently enough, Warmaster’s Shack is nearby and has a Site of Grace. A word of warning: don’t farm these five trolls at night ; a Deathbird boss will appear and it’s a rather tough fight for new play
