A couple things most people probably know about, but they make certain fights SO much easier to manage, so they're worth throwing out, just in case someone isn't aware of them: Heal incantatations deal massive damage and stagger Royal Revenants. That early one in the minidungeon in Liurnia can be stunlocked and 2-shot with Heal, even at minimum stats. Sacred Blade can go on a ton of weapons, uses fairly little FP, leaves a residual holy buff, and makes very short work of Deathright Birds. Just lock on to the head and bladebeam your way to some chicken wings.

IMO, the best use of markers (which I have thought of at some point but then didn't do throughout three playthroughs) is marking every dungeon where you've totally cleaned it out and beaten any bosses. I still think it's odd that they signal that a dungeon's boss is cleared by letting you fast travel from inside it, as an additional feature on top of the spot in the boss arena that teleports you to the entrance, but they don't signal that a dungeon is cleared from the map. It's a UX design antipattern, where anyone can easily check the boss status by fast traveling there and then trying to fast travel away, so the only thing that would change if they indicated it on the map would be like 30 seconds of time that wouldn't be wasted when a player wants to check.

@@dc1939 They already have a map icon when you can't fast travel away, instead of making you select a site of grace and then telling you that you can't. An alternate icon for a "one-way" site of grace in an uncompleted dungeon would obviously take up the same space on the map. If you think it clutters up the map when you can't fast travel and the grace icons change, then I don't know what to tell you, because that doesn't make sense.

I knew about pretty much all these from playing Elden Ring a lot over the past 3 months. I use markers a lot. Mostly to mark Spiritspring/teleport locations, field boss/loot, and to mark dungeons that I haven’t finished. I definitely learned about the Roundtable Hold fast travel button sequence a while back. I noticed there’s a menu option that indicates you’re able to ‘mark’ Sites of Grace that would put them in a special listing, so you wouldn’t have to scroll through each Grace from the various zones, but I haven’t found a method that actually makes this work. I know there are Mimic Tears in the open world, like the Lobster/Scion in Liurnia, the Noble/Wormface on Mt. Gelmir, etc (I was just attacked for the first time by a Rune Bear south of the Waypoint Ruins yesterday; my reaction was an audible WTF?). There’s a noble outside of Lyndell that transforms into Morgott (not a Mimic Tear, but apparently an incantation cast by Morgott); defeating him gets you a Talisman. I’ve found many Ashes of War have certain hidden combos if you press/hold L2 and then hit R1/R2/or press L2 again/repeatedly. It’s worth experimenting, because you can figure out some very powerful abilities. Bloodhound Fang/Death’s Poker are some good examples. Another thing I picked up that can be useful is that you can cycle through your equipped weapons/staves/finger seals as you roll (this doesn’t work for jumps/backsteps, or during charged attacks. Similarly, you can hold a weapon guard or shield block using L1, and if you hit the D-pad to swap to a staff/finger seal, if you have the appropriate sorcery/incantation queued up in a memory slot, you’ll begin casting without having to press the L1 button again.

Likewise, I didn't know how to guard counter until Altus on my third character. And lastly, I didn't know about the transept entrance to godskin duo until after their defeat. I kept fighting three banished knights on each run back and thought, "This is the worst. I've burnt through four flasks before I'm back in the arena." Also, I'd rather fight scion-lobster or runebear before that traumatizing wormface on Mt Gelmir. My first ever encounter with a wormface, I killed the commoner, it picked me up from behind and killed me with deathblight. The second time it was incessantly trying to grab me again. Bears and scions are relatively tame compared to a literal face of death

A HUGE TIP I have never seen anyone else mention this anywhere but whenever you go into the hero’s grave places that have those massive chariots that will run you over, instead of having to wait forever for them to go past you while you hide in those little holes just simply put raptors of the mist on something like a dagger and use raptors of the mist before the chariot will hit you and you will not be harmed. Saves you a lot of time and makes those chariots not even dangerous anymore. P.S. it’s also very useful for falling ceilings with spikes on them. Also I know that there’s another underground boss battle where you can ride your horse in the double pumpkin head fight in Caelid (I believe it’s called Sellia under-stair)

Speaking of early access to end game smithing stones, there's also a Somber 9 in Dragonbarrow. Corpse in a chair outside of the Divine Tower of Caelid on a lower level (you do not need to jump across to the tower). There are 2 dragons nearby, and a Scarab with a Somber 8 in it (careful, the scarab explodes on death). If you can get an invader to lower the elevator at the Divine Bridge in Leyndell (Tower of Return trap chest teleports you there from the Weeping Penninsula) with the Tormentor's Tongue, you can make it to the Subteranian Shunning Grounds for a Somber 6 & 7 (at the very bottom of the earliest part, with the Giant Lobster snipers). Somber 1-5 are also available early without glitches or having to be clever at all (2-4 can be purchased from Iji if you don't want to explore for free ones). This gives you a +9 somber weapon BEFORE fighting Margit.

With the markers, the glowy beacons, is there a way to jump between them or clear them all? I lose them all the time and it would be so great to be able to hop around between them on the map.

Even in dark souls, if you hit the skeleton again while it's recreating, you can kill it without a divine weapon....unless you're in the catacombs. Either a divine weapon, or you kill the necromancers inside.

I rather right a rune bear. I can dodge towards them and attack all the time but those lobsters are something else... I normally just ignore them! My longest secret was the map shortcut top roundtable. I discover you can do that half way thru my second play-through. 🤣
