Liurnia of the Lakes (Central): Walks in the water in front of the Raya Lucaria Crystal Tunnel. The skulls on top must be destroyed from above using a bow. Do so from the nearby tombstones jutting out from the cliffside. They can be accessed by first warping to the East Raya Lucaria grace and heading east to the cliffside.
After the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, the Verdigris Set has earned its place among the heaviest armor sets available in Elden Ring . With its very high weight, it provides maximum Poise and physical defense. The armor also boasts some of the best fire resistance in the game, making it a top choice for melee tank builds that prioritize high defense and an intimidating appearance. Additionally, the Verdigris Set features the highest Robustness of any armor in the g
The Moonveil Katana scales primarily with Dexterity and Intelligence and rewards a playstyle that mixes close-quarters swordplay with midrange spellcasting. The Ash of War that comes with Mooveil is Transient Moonlight, which lets players launch a powerful (and cheap) magic arc that scales with the weapon's upgrade level . Equipping Moonveil requires at least 18 Dexterity, 12 Strength, and 23 Intelligence, which isn't a lot considering the high-tier scaling and skill that comes with it.
Moonveil has the Transient Moonlight Ash of War, which allows its wielder to cast one of two special attacks after entering stance. With the light attack button, after holding down your input for the Ash of War, you will send forth a short-range beam of magic horizontally. With the heavy attack follow up, you will launch a vertical slice of magic forward quite a distance. Both of these special attacks deal significant damage and are extremely useful against both groups of enemies and single-target bosses.
Lordsworn's Shield : A pretty good early-game Greatshield , the Lordsworn's Shield can be farmed fairly easily at the Gatefront Ruins, and has a surprisingly good guard boost of 60, but its low physical damage reduction of 94% and fairly weak Elemental resistances lands it in the C-tier. On the bright side, it weighs only 10.0 and has one of the lowest stat requirements. Still, it may only be worthwhile for low-level players who lack better alternati
Not every Tarnished will be capable enough to put on the entire Bull-Goat Set in Elden Ring merchants Ring , as it is by far the heaviest armor in the original game, granting the highest Poise value and unparalleled physical defense. It is also quite potent when facing fire-damaging enemies, although one might consider better options with lesser wei
Contrary to popular belief, lightning can strike twice in the same place, and in Elden Ring , it can strike much more than that, especially if the enemy is a cheating spammer like those late-game dragons. Against such enemies who are intent on turning the Tarnished into lightning rods, it helps to prepare some countermeasures, and armor stands out as the most accessible among th
The first of these is the Guide Statues. These statues resembling a creepy old woman can be found all over The Lands Between and they always point to a dungeon. If one is encountered, make sure to approach and check it. If there's a button prompt, hit it and follow the ghostly trail of light that emerges; it'll surely lead to a nearby dungeon. If no button prompt appears, then one can (usually) rest assured that they've already cleared the area's most important hidden spot. Aside from the statues, it's usually just good to just be extra thorough and look for hidden drops or not-so-obvious dips in a cliffside. Unexplained concentrations of enemies are also a good indicator.
Updated December 27, 2024 by Erik Petrovich : In Elden Ring, Moonveil Katana builds tend to focus on expanding the players' ability to wield this fast and versatile weapon with backup spells and weapons to complement the playstyle, as well as Talismans and Armor to help boost your effectiveness. This guide to the best Moonveil build Elden Ring players can put together has been updated to provide more details on these recommendations, including new information on the weapons' requirements and scaling, the most useful Sorceries, and more.
Cuckoo Greatshield : The Cuckoo Greatshield is an excellent option for those looking to absorb some Magic damage , but unfortunately, it's outshone by the Eclipse Crest Greatshield in just about every way. Still, this shield remains a great one for Magic and Holy defense if the player hasn't found the Eclipse Crest yet. Another appealing aspect is its stunning design, which pairs seamlessly with many medium and heavy armor sets, allowing for a stylish and cohesive character appeara
Dragonclaw Shield : A striking, and fearsome visual design, the Dragonclaw Shield is another Greatshield that works just as well as a weapon as it does as a defense. Boasting a fairly low weight of 13.5, and an upgraded Guard Boost of 67, the Dragonclaw Shield offers a good amount of protection, especially with some extra Lightning negation added for good measure. But where the Dragonclaw Shield really shines is through its use as a weapon. Equipped from the offset with the Shield Bash Weapon Art, players can use the Dragonclaw Shield to ram into their opponents, often breaking their guard and staggering them temporarily. While other Greatshields have this same Weapon Art, the Dragonclaw Shield offers the best damage of the lot, even dealing a small amount of Lightning damage on top of the physical. Using a Greatshield as a weapon isn't often a recommended strategy, but it provides a fun new way to experience the game's intense fig
