Tip for following routes like this. Look at his compass and not his exact path. For instance: In the Academy Village, he moves Northwest to the Golden Tree. Then he goes North Northeast to the gazebo to teleport. Makes following paths much easier.

There's a free +6 Somber for those not interested in the boss fight once you're up near the Altus Plateau: head to the northern section and make your way into Mt. Gelmir's road. Almost right away you'll see Iron Maidens but importantly on the left, a ladder. Climb the ladder, hug the left at the top, and you'll come to a dude in a chair w/ a free Somber 6. Great guide!

[@OmegaShanic]

@@supply2899 The video covers getting to the Altus Plataeu - you need two Dectus Medallions, then take the Great Lift of Dectus. There's another way, but it involves a dungeon, bosses, and enemies probably a bit rough for early levels. 10:50 covers getting one half of the medallions, while 15:10 covers the other, as well as getting to the Lift in Liurnia. Once there, you'll need to follow the road that goes north and loops west into Mt. Gelmir, instead of East toward the capital. Notably, roads are on the maps even if you don't have the map fragments. You know you're going the right way once the ground changes from gold to black ash. Then you're at the battlements with the Iron Maidens and ladder on the left wall I covered originally. Climb the ladder, hug the left, and the stone is yours. :)

[@labakrapscalio451]

Just some constructive criticism. It may be easier for people to follow along if instead of saying follow my path, you used the cardinal directions on the compass. It might help too be more specific about locations and directions from locations. Like from the Laskyar ruins site of grace, head west until you get to the lakeside crystal cave where there is another site of grace just inside. Instead of go here, follow my path this way, and turn right. The compass is extremely helpful

I can't see how him literally running the whole path is less beneficial than the map, and he does show his starting location on map every time I believe, can't confirm though since I already have all of the items... I've seen map routes and through some areas they're plainly stupid (some terrain is just really hard or sometimes impossible to navigate)... just use the yutub feature of slowing down the playtime to half or even quarter speed and walk it through with him.

Couple tips for making a guide like this increase your brightness to Max for dark rooms or use a torch. And occasionally when showing the location that you're moving to pop open the map allows people to better follow where you're going cuz if they already have found those locations they could just go there and go from that spot instead of following along not knowing where the heck you're at. And I know a lot of you guys make these guides have to fit a lot of content in a small space of time but just a suggestion when you're at the location and it's just in the area don't accelerate the time or the pace of the game just go normal makes following along a 100x easier.

okay so i just started ER this weekend and followed this guide. everything still works. SONAF is nerfed but still good if anyone sorting by newest comments wants to know. for those of you having trouble following after getting the skeleton armour section this is what he does: 1. get the second half of the medallion for the dectus lift at fort haight west 2. use it to get to altus plateau where you get the golden seal 3. get the demi god ashes from boss in the impaler catocombs on weeping penninsula 4. get the flame of frenzy incantation from Callu Baptismal Church in the Weeping Peninsula. 5. get the flame give me strength incantation from caelid (the left side of the castle behind the 2 fire breathing machines) and if anyone wants to try (i saw a video after unfortunately) right after you kill the dragon if you use the grace fast enough behind you at the fort/castle (use the horse) the dragon will respawn and you can farm more runes. thanks OP!!! subbed!

Neat build and cool that you found all of this. So, first of all, thanks for your effort putting this together! Two pieces of advice for bettering your instructional method of your video however: 1) Turn up your brightness. I can't see anything when it's night or you are indoors, and since you say "follow my path" and then speed through whipping around left and right and making me dizzy since you don't face the right way all the time, brightness will help me get my bearings after the dizzying spinning around. Otherwise, I don't know which way you choce because I just can't see anything but a wall of black. 2) You should offer key points to the journey other than just "follow my path" because some of these paths are confusing, and they way you spin the camera constantly makes it continuously hard to keep track of which direction you are heading. Keep a constant bearing and make comments like "be sure to jump here", "follow this road then turn right before the cliffs", "jump down the hole, and make sure to jump to the other platform, and behind the wall is a big rat and a ladder, jump down the ladder and that's where you'll find the talisman." They help provide key instruction during confusing parts. Anyways, I hope you continue to improve your instructional style. Here's some great content, and as you improve your delivery, I'm excited to see what other cool secrets I can find from your videos!

I just wanted to point out something for the armor section of the video. If you play on the 1.0 version of the game (you need a physical copy) the pot that is secretly an NPC is not a pot in the 1.0 version. It is a stone statue of a hooded praying woman. But it works the exact same as it does in later versions. And honestly, if you listen to all of his dialogue, it makes much more sense for him to be a statue than a pot. Just wanted to point that out :) There’s a lot of neat differences in the 1.0 version compared to the updated versions. Lots of items are named differently, and almost no item is where the wiki or any tutorial says it should be, lol. Makes a playthrough painful. But I like to think that it’s the intended experience lmao

Then trying to learn spells was a hassle cos I recently learned I needed to get scrolls? Find someone or something? Not too mention, some bosses were annoying to kill.

From here you should grab the Meteorite Staff; obtain Radagon Icon; defeat Rennala to gain another talisman pouch from Enia; obtain Ancient Death Rancor from Death Rite Bird near Gatetown; raise your INT to 34; and then equip/memorize the above items. Ancient Death Rancor makes trolls flinch and deals poise damage to big enemies like dragons. Either of which will make using Sword of Night and Flame's skills that much less of a hassle. Plus it's a death spell, and you're wearing death-related getup, so... Also 50+ each INT and FAI should be high enough for Prince of Death's Staff to outperform other glintstone staffs, at least with with death sorceries.

Definitely a powerful build but very very prone to deaths since these spells take enormous amounts of time to cast and you cant move while casting. Also, its hard to get good hits against units that are mobile because you cant re-aim these spells, only in the very last second before releasing. Another note - the beam attack (single target) appears to be far more effective on most bosses than the flame sweep (FAN AOE) Be ready to invest a lot of time and patience to follow this guide unless you've beat the game and already memorized the map.
