The other useful Spirit Ash is the Black Knife Tiche Ashes . Bosses have a difficult time hitting her, and her ranged attack drains health for a certain percentage. She can drain bosses for a stupid amount of damage if they leave her alone for too long. There are two main drawbacks to using her, though. The first is that she’s expensive to summon, requiring around 132 FP. The second is that she doesn’t draw aggro as often, so players will need to be more careful about avoiding hits. If she sounds useful, though, she can be obtained by defeating Alecto, Black Knife Ringleader in the Ringleader’s Evergaol in Liurnia (accessed by progressing Ranni’s questline ).

The only issue with it is that it’s too small for a Legacy Dungeon and an area governed by one of the demigods. If players are quick or experienced, they can rush this whole place in just five minutes— boss inclu

There’s no shame in admitting defeat in Elden Ring , because, in hindsight, most players just seek tactics or Revive teammates strategies to make the game easier. Whether that’s cheesing the boss fights with some unbalanced weapons or over-leveling, nearly every player is out to lessen the difficulty in one way or another. It just so happens that some of them don’t have that kind of time and this is where easy mode mods can become a gods

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?

For any of you who have already reached the Mountaintops but missed a step in Yura’s questline, don’t worry, Eleonora will still always invade the first time you go to the Second Church of Marika, and Yura’s Nagakiba can be found sitting wherever you last spoke with Yura as well, be that Murkwater Cave or one of his other locations.

Updated September 4th, 2024 by Jacob Buchalter: Even after the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC dropped, most of the ‘overpowered’ weapons in Elden Ring kept their spots in the rankings. And while the Nagakiba is among them, it’s not widely regarded as one of the truly ‘broken’ weapons in this game. As easy as it is to get the Nagakiba, it truly is a unique and powerful weapon. However, not everyone is aware of how to get this katana nor of what exactly it entails. So with that in mind, let’s break down the method of getting the Nagakiba, the questline it’s involved in, and all the other rewards you’ll be able to get along the way.

All four methods each have their own pros and cons, and it’s up to the Tarnished to determine which serves their urgency and purpose the best. For the uninitiated, Bloody Finger Hunter Yura is an NPC in Elden Ring who plays a small part in one of the endings.

With this mod, summoning becomes better in many ways. They don’t disappear after a boss and can be summoned multiple times without players having to rest. As a cherry on top, players can summon help in locations where they weren’t permitted, which can make for some interesting combat scenarios in their own ri

A huge part of the Soulsborne game is reading item descriptions to figure out the details of a particular weapon, armor, consumable, or anything else along the same lines . The crux of these games is figuring out how items work with an online community that wastes no time in writing in-game messages and posting on forums and the like about the mechanics governing specific it

Upon killing him, Yura will drop the Nagakiba Katana, a few Runes, and nothing else, so those drooling for his Ronin Armor Set set might want to wait at least a little bit before killing him. To be more precise, if you progress Yura’s Questline until you find him at the Zamor Ruins Site of Grace and then kill him, you can get his Armor Set here and find the Nagakiba sitting in his previous location north of Murkwater Cave.

General Radahn was a master of Gravitational Sorcery and an imposing, terrifying warrior in close combat. Being a heavy bruiser and a master of Sorcery is a tricky business to build stats around, but with the right tools it’s not impossible to blend these polar opposites.

Once again, a named NPC will invade and players must defeat them to get the weapon. As for Mohgwyn’s Sacred Spear, they’ll have to travel to Mohgwyn Dynasty Mausoleum and defeat the Lord of Blood himself in order to get his weapon. All of these weapons are not necessary to have on hand, but they make for a nice range of options. Of the three, though, Rivers of Blood is the most usable, so go for that one at the very least. Of course, these will all need to be upgraded in order to get the full effect.
