Another tip for the cylinder trap things: If you have no bow, use the looking glass and center the target on your screen. Without moving, switch to throwing knives and throw. They’ll go exactly where the looking glass view was centered.

7:45 Technical note here.. two handing does not reduce STR requirements, it increases your effective STR rating by 50%. This means that two-handing will also boost your AR even if you already do meet the stats needed.

[@RED_XLR]

What does AR mean?

[@RED_XLR]

@@Tremblay343 WHAT!? I thought you meant Assault Rifle, but i was like "Dark Fantasy soulsborne game that isn't Bloodborne isn't gonna have guns..." Well if that's true and you're not trolling does this mean Crossbow benefit from this too?

[@Tremblay343]

@@RED_XLR I was just kidding, in the souls game people refer to the raw weapon damage as attack rating, or AR. It's a pre-damage number before enemy defences are taken into account.

[@RED_XLR]

@@Tremblay343 Aha ofc well i wouldn't know it's why i asked. I never really talked to people about any soulsgame i played. Only 1 close irl friend and neither of us ever talk about stuff like that.

[@halowaffles]

The best thing I love about the simple addition of a reliable jump in this game, is that the *near* frame-perfect hitboxes make it so a jump is as viable as a dodge depending on the range of the enemy attack. I find myself jumping to avoid an attack as much as I used to roll in souls games, which also creates a new dynamic for attacking. Fromsoft is one of the few studios who take their accumulative effort across titles and utilize them to make their future games more efficient and fun while repeating the same gameplay loop.

[@Augur_RAzul]

What an observation!

[@Mcspazz731]

That last sentence is absolutely on point and I wish we had more of it in the industry. From soft deserves all of the praise and more

[@rottingcorpse6565]

So weight doesn't affect jumping, jumping is as good as rolling, and jump attacks are very strong... I was aiming for a dex build but it sounds like jumping around like an idiot all the time with a huge 2h is the way to go.

I just can’t imagine the time , effort , expertise , and “ love and passion “ that goes in making such games. I am a simple man and when i play Elden ring I just sometime pause for a few seconds and absorb the beautifying canvas painting like scenery and get goosebumps all over me. And can’t help but think that I am privileged to be able to experience this game.

[@SakuraWulf]

Allow me to offer a different perspective, since i'm not a simple man. Any time I see new software, I think, "damn, another missed opportunity." Also, you could have said beautiful instead of beautifying. It kinda ruined the vibe. I have no illusions about privilege, regardless. Sure it's a privilege, a privilege they created to generate profit. Sure, it may have been a passion project in some sense, but one that likely wouldn't have seen the light of day unless their customers were willing to support them. All that being said, I understand where you're coming from. That comment is the sort of feeling you get when you experience life-changing events, like withdrawals from staying clean, getting out of jail, near death experiences, and from what i've heard, finding God which is really just establishing a healthy relationship with yourself. I hope you understand what i'm saying here. While I do have these moments quite frequently since this is what i'm looking for in entertainment, I wouldn't comment about it like this, unless I was on drugs.

PSA- I feel like I never hear people talk about this, but the lantern can also be purchased at the "Isolated Merchant's Shack" that is on the Weeping Peninsula, and I think that one is a bit more available at the beginning unless you are specifically trying to speedrun bosses.

[@anoniemuss824]

You can bypass Stormveil by running along the path down from the broken bridge east of the Castle, so it’s just as easy to get to that merchant as the one you mentioned.

[@trijaysantos]

Great video! Also most people forget to use the map marker. You can put up to 100 and it is extremely useful considering the map is massive!

[@IAmDaDumb1]

Map marker usage is essential. I use it to mark all merchants/teachers, portals, and any boss encounters I’m not able to kill when I first encounter them

@@IAmDaDumb1 I just started this today!

[@NarutoOnePiece]

One wee thing I thought was useful. When your exploring the open world ruins(one’s usually with a staircase to a chest) it’s hard to tell if you’ve got all the enemies in the area. So to stop you being paranoid looking about, either have an ash summon out when your fighting or check to see if the ash summon symbol is there on the screen. If it’s not then congrats you’ve beaten all the enemies in that ruin and can explore to find all the items

[@asahel980]

[@brandonmulryan1522]

The 2 handing doesn't reduce a weapons strength requirement but instead increases your own strength slightly to be able to use the weapon, which is the reasoning when you 2 hand a weapon you can one hand you do more damage with it.

[@fishie00]

Two handing increases your strength value by 50% i believe.

[@qwormuli77]

Flat 50%, rounded down.

The unequipping your weapon to kick shielded enemies is a trick I'll have to use. As a dex enthusiast my weapons bounce off like toothpicks.

Thanks for these tip guides you've been uploading! I'm a noob in this style of game due to not wanting to die a lot.

dont give up and you know that in these games the more you die the better.the more hours into the game so your experience will be longer and thats a good thing.worth your money and dont listen to kidos saying this and that to play it god mode...games are made for fun not for scores...if they want scores go play lol and dreaming going top of the ladder with in real life ,no point...

[@TheSUGA1202]

Im a wretch and im having a bad time since i started without a bow, my advice is that you can use throwing knives at the beggining the same way as a bow and kaale sells them quite cheap at the church of elleh

[@TheSUGA1202]

Small bones from animal can also make do but they are more tedious to gather and craft.

[@redandstillnotdead]

@@TheSUGA1202 There's a flock of sheep between the Stormhill Shack and the nearby Evergaol that will net you a good amount of thin bones.

[@dylanmahaffey8920]

On the beach close to the first church (the one with santa) you will see a large ruined building. Under that building is a merchant that sells bows.

[@coryw3339]

i can't remember where but I found a crossbow very very early on within the first hour of playing.

[@areyoumybuddy]

A pretty early place to farm thin beast bones is go down on the beach (like left from Tree Sentinel /Starting Are) there's a cave down their that is honestly pretty scary... a pretty big boss [gives you the Clothing modification kit that allows you to change the look of armor] Anyways w/ a Spectral Summon & (for me @least) their was another summon down their you could use. Of a like dead Hero or something (He's pretty Beast, &Even tho I Was Online. No It Wasn't another Player-Character that I Summoned) Along ₩/ some throwing knives &fire &keeping distance from the boss letting it attack your companions You can probably take him down easy enough The cave let's out on a little island That there is NO Enemies On (Well except for @night when there's 3 Spectral Jellyfish things. that are Easy 2Kill) Anyways, There is a bunch of Beasts (Big &Small) &Birds. That All really Don't have Anywhere to go &You can Chase them &Kill them w/out having to worry about running into enemies. Their is Also A Site Of Grace their so you can just rest &respawn everything. &Just chase the ones close too you. (Also Some Pretty Good [Not Awesome] items on the little island) I currently use it to farm bones &feathers for Fletched Arrows (&non-fletched Arrows... +the2 fire varietys) &Throwing bone-Knives. [I like having a Full Inventory of those Items &As Big Ass Stockpile as possible in Chest] Probably definitely not the best place.. but it works for now..

[@ARTBACKSTEAKHOUSE]

The one about jumping instead of rolling is a game changer.

[@ricktan5663]

One tip to easily kill the roving invisible scarabs that drop Ashes of War. Instead of having to time your melee attack or use an AOE attack when the scarab passes by, position yourself in a straight portion of the scarab’s path. Then fire an arrow along the path as the scarab approaches you.

[@shawnwolf5961]

mind. blown. Why the eff did I never think of this??

[@nathanhanna5374]

Another tip: If you are heavy load so you dont want to slow roll put quickstep or bloodhouds quick step to essentially have a roll ability (bloodhounds is better but consumes small amounts of FP and quickstep consumes no FP but is smaller ranged and probably less s, they both consume stamina similar to a roll)

[@MHChrono]

Bloodhound's Step is also better for traversing damaging terrain because its longer range. Interestingly enough, you can 'block' lava damage. You just need to be facing the direction that the lava is flowing, otherwise the shield can't block it.

[@DarthRaver-og7qq]

I've never played a souls game before elden ring. It took me 3 days to decide which starting class to choose. I think I restarted like 5 times lol. Ended up with the prophet because those incantation attacks are just too juicy to pass up. Great video!!!

[@ZugzugZugzugson]

0:59 while you are right in that you can simply hit the skeletons while they are on the ground reanimating - using a weapon like the inseperable (D's) sword or any weapon that does holy damage kills off skeletons immediately, without having to deal with them on the ground. very useful for certain dungeons where there's a lot of them, as there's a few s on the skeletons when you kill them before you can hit them on the ground to kill-kill them, and skipping this process can be very valuable in crowded fights. this obviously works both ways, so if you're up against a holy-damage boss, using your skeletons is just a waste of spirit ashes.

[@OB--vs5ud]

Watch out with the glowy eyes one. Some enemies inflict madness damage when they hit you. Completely stacked it does really high damage on your HP and FP.

[@KillswitchLtd1]

The multiple runes glowy eyes are different to frenzy glowy eyes, as frenzy enemies don't drop more runes, and frenzy builds through a shield

[@darksunrise957]

The frenzy eyes look more like fire than just... Well, glowing eyes. Would have been useful to mention in the video, regardless, though.

Another to potentially add, it seems poise damage also gets a boost on horseback. Idk if it effects damage output. But those field enemies go down much quicker for sure!

[@xDriftes]

It’s my first souls game, came straight here when I realized just how hard it is for a noob

[@Surveyed]

Find some good farm spots that are doable for you rn. Lvl up, it’s ok to take your time in this and not rush bosses. Find as many grace spots as possible make sure when you’re free roaming you’ve spent your runes so you don’t have the fear of losing them. You can always go back and pick things up too so if you need to miss something it’s ok to go back later. Remember these games are designed to make you mad lol don’t give in. Eventually it gets easy once you figure out the basic souls borne mechanics.

Ideally look at a guide. Otherwise head to the Village of Albinaurics which is NW of the Liurnia Lake Shore lost grace (which is behind Stormveil Castle). once into the village head up a hill and past a fire breathing guy who is standing under a tree and near an old house. To the right of the house is a chest behind a small wall which has a half medallion grab that and teleport to the round table. this can all be done without fighting anyone except the intruder at the round table.

[@davidc5170]

No way, you must be seen things. Like I swore I seen a dragon in the game but there can't be.

[@hyperbannana9262]

@@davidc5170 no way theirs a dragon that wouldn't be realistic

Thank you for not talking like a KZbinr, who puts that rising tone at the end of each word of each sentence. Also good tips. I knew most of them, but the ones I didn't were so good. Like, holding down on the D-pad to get to the first item. Nice.

What’s the name of the skeleton armor from the start of the video? I noticed a NPC wearing it at roundtable too

[@justice4g]

nice, I also like putting summon horse, heal and mana potions on the pouch for direct access

This might have just convinced me to get it even though I know I will probably suck 😂

been playing for 30 hours now and i had no idea the majority of these tricks existed, i was planning on doing other stuff but watching this vid makes me want to go right back in

Pro Tip: If you hold down the directional button it switches your item back to first one equipped (i.e Holding down will always equip your Crimson Flask)

One thing that I started doing was place the skull map marker on completed catacombs, evergaols, minor erdtrees and the like. As I progress, my map now shows me which minor bosses I need to go back to!

@Boomstick Gaming How did you trigger the event for the Invader in the Round Table Hold? The Skeleton warrior. The Royal Remains Armor. Ton's people are asking and trying to figure out how to get it. Would be great if you could tell us.

[@DG-nn8zt]

The invader pops up if you jump down into the main hall area

[@GraveWurm2k]

@@DG-nn8zt that’s a different invasion.

[@waleader626]

After i kill the boss at warmaster shack that appears inside at night time. The next return to round table he appeared. Not sure if that triggered it but potentially might of been why

I remember finding you when someone stole your anthem review. You've gotten pretty good man keep it up

First tip is to remove parry lol. Yikes!!!!

I don't comment often, but thank you so much for just getting into the meat of the video straight away

[@King_Stranger]

You play the game. no video is gonna make anyone a pro. kinda feels like false advertising just to get clicks. Just as bad as the people that put "Dog?" near turtles

[@ZB_EDITS]

[@King_Stranger]

@@ZB_EDITS and you responded to a comment that was years old. still won't make your parents love you

Get the No Skill ashes and duplicate it whenever you want to sell a weapon that has an ashes of war attached. Just attach the No Skill and then you can sell it without losing the Ashes of War you want to keep.
