Talimans dont get upgraded if you find an onother one, there are better ones but you can also get them first
I started with a test character to learn for round about 15 hours. Then I started my main character, whitch I am playing since 80 hours now. Today I watched this Video and still found new game mechanics. I really think, a game is messed Design, wenn Players with nearly 100 hours don't got the mechanics!
A
Ì
I haven't watched the whole video yet. I stopped on sprinting to comment this because I find it an odd feature, don't forget you can 'sprint' while crouched/stealthed.
I love how sprinting and jumping only consume stamina while you're in combat.
Yes!
I think they just want you to explore the game without being dragged down by game mechanics it is you still lose Focus points tho
@@madara992 sprinting and jumping never make you lose FP
@@SlayerRunefrost he means using FP/skills out of combat
@@ryangeorge2982 well of course that still uses FP. Swinging your weapon still consumes stamina outside of combat too. Really has nothing to do with what I was saying.
for the glowing skulls you can also roll over them to break them, alot easier than trying to hit them , you can also run over them with torrent
Wow thank you for this
Even easier, you could run over them with a horse while spamming Y and you should just get it without turning around
Thanks for the tip ...
Thank you! I've resorted to chopping with the cleaver just to hit them consistently
Or jump right befor you would kick them, but rolling is esier to time.
I bought this game today, first souls game ever for me. Played it for a couple of hours and I just love how alluring it feels. I know I'll be bad for a while but I want to get good lol
* GIT GUD AND GIT GUD YOU SHALL MY FELLOW ELDEN LORD :) good luck!👍
Same man I know how you feel, I thought I'd be at least somewhat decent with timing the dodges but when they delay they're attacks it's just sorrow 😂
@@punchghp8425 I've now killed two story bosses and a couple of optional ones. It really helped to just explore and upgrade my weapons. Currently using the Bloodhound's fang. I killed Godrick on the second try, Margit took me like 15 tries but I didn't have the fang when I killed him. His attacks were VERY hard to read.
@@simak2391
What level were you when you fought margit ?
@@lionofallah3441 Around 25 I think. I started as a Vagabond, so I had a good starting point for a melee playstyle. I suggest finding every golden seed and tear you can for better healing if you're having trouble.
A lot of new players don't know this but tons of enemies can be farmed repeatedly to get a rare item to drop. And if you're keen to do this, any extra points you have in arcane increase your drop chances of those rares!
I appreciate it! I didn’t know I could farm stuff for loot. I thought drops were kinda one time things and scripted for the first time killing and then after just maybe crafting or ruin. Glad I know otherwise!
I found a gargoyle helmet in the catacombs from one of those small green guys and its 3x the stats of my start out helmet… crazy and thats how i found out i could farm for drops. Certain enemies drop certain items if you farm them enough. Do you know where i can find a better start out armor for warrior?
@@fleezy1579 a really good armor for a warrior is right at the beginning at the first camp. Kill the knight commander of the camp you can get every item off him including his chest piece. Respawn at the south side grace and you can use a bow to shoot one shot at him to get his attention without drawing aggro from all the other soldiers. After farming him about 50 times I had all pieces of the set. I can wear everything except the shield which requires a ton of str
@@fleezy1579 I found that one, too in some catacombs. I got the weapon they drop as well
I got 20 Arcane BC I need that glorious loot
I want to add some of my tips for playing 130hrs and first time playing.
- Learn to auto lock single enemies. Worst part is missing a hit. Useful for those Ball scarabs while on Horseback and trying to hit them while moving.
- try to have and use different weapons for different situations.
Daggers & Mace weapons are very quick to swing. Useful for weak enemies.
Samurai swords, swords, scythes or great for Horseback.
My favorites is BloodHound Fang or Halo Scythe. Slow but has good reach and strong.
- try to use a shield or incantation on Left hand for different situations. Sometimes having shields on you can parry but can’t use Right special abilities. It’s good to switch to incantation hand.
-Early strategy to get Runes, weapons and armor is just killing Soldiers. Practice sneaking and stab them in the back(RB button) does more damage. Also jumping does more damage than light attack.
If you’re low level just run away and come back. Always check of how much runes to level up. Want to put points in HP first. Endurance later on for stamina and to carry more weight.
The other stats Dex, Faith, Arcane, Intelligence I would slowly move up, base on what weapons you want to use. Keep them at 20 at first, till you get an idea of what build you want to be. You can re-spec your stats later. Or just keep all under level 60. The highest level is 713. That is every stat at level 99. Which is overboard. There is a Hard Cap, I think is 60, where you barely get anything for putting any points in.
- try to Explore Map. Look for Merchants, Tree Seeds, Maps and have Fun.
Also always grind out the next lvl up when you're close before trying a boss or exploring anew area, losing like 80% worth of a level multiple times adds up
Why does everyone always say to do vigor first but never say what level to get it to before focusing on other stats
@@mylespando5192 The other Stats depends on what weapons you want to use. Are you doing Magic or Strength? It’s good that the game lets you Re-Spec your Stats. So your Stats depends on what Weapons you can use.
Thanks man
The flasks refill a certain amount depending on how many/how strong the enemies you killed were, so it’s not always 3 charges
True, a lot of elites can fill all of them
The only stat that is affected by two handing is strength and nothing else. So if you’re short on strength then you can try it. If you’re short on any other stat it literally does nothing. Two handing a weapon will give you half of your strength amount added on to what you already have. Example if you have 30 strength and you two hand a weapon it will be like you have 45 strength. Thus when players do a pure str build they generally stop at 66 strength as two handing a weapon will be like you have 99.
Great bit of information, appreciate you sharing with the community
Unless you’re a ultra giga Chad and want to powerstance colossals
Two-handing also has other effects as well that are much more important than the strength:
The attacks are noticeably faster and do a lot more to fill the poise meter.
If you want to test this, use any colossal/great weapon and it is much more noticeable.
Facts, so no 50% dex increase for 2h unfortunately
To add, two handing can unlock an entirely different move set for certain weapons.... the wolverine claws are an example of this, mediocre on one hand, great when 2 handed.
One other tip with the spirit springs... when you jump, you will go in the direction you are facing. I did not know this and assumed it worked like a wind current that guided you to a fixed spot no matter what. WRONG. I lept 100ft into the air and dove straight into the depths of the ocean lmao
Your comment made me laugh out loud.
I wish that I too was not defeated by my own trust in the spiraling winds of the lands between. Lol but here we are. Also I finally got the nerve to challenge myself in a fight beyond my abilities, then got rammed to death by a- yep you guessed it, an upseghtti spaghetti, rage quit tempting, Ram. - just .008 seconds after enemy felled. GRRR! lol I feel your pain.
Word of advice, watch your backside for it WILL be rammed at any unexpected moment. And NEVER open a menu with low health. It isn't safe here. Haha
At least they are really great about leaving your runes in reach. That is something I am grateful they considered.
Happy gaming! My fellow Tarnished friend.
" You died "
Jajajjajajjaja this just happened to me earlier this morning
On the beach right lol. Same.
A point about the silver scarabs: as soon as you hit them, they'll try rolling away and eventually will disappear. But as long as you keep landing hits on them periodically, they reset their escape animation. So it's better to land a hit every few seconds, than a bunch of hits all at once and then have no stamina left to finish it off.
one hit with magic and night night lol
You can also hold the sprinting button when crouching to move faster behind enemies.
Underrated comment^^^
Crouch sprint - the stuff of legends
Brooo 😭 thank you lol
if you get on a mount while two handing a weapon those stats stick even though you are one handing it on Torrent, super useful
Thank you! Honestly these stats are hard enough to understand when you're looking at them. So you can imagine all the questions I have during game play. This was one of them. So hard to find the answer. Thanks so much!
I love and hate this at the same time. Anytime I forget to two hand before mounting Torrent I always feel obligated to get back off and two hand before proceeding
I needed this 😅 I lasted 1 hour in the game before I rage quit. Elden Ring is different to other games.
It’s certainly a different beast. Glad the video helped, and thanks for stopping by the channel!
hello pewdiepie
YES I hated this game at first but I Watched the noob guide on CZcams it’s a 2 hour long video but it will definitely help guide you to become a stronger character! It has got me to a level 6 sword with level 25-30 character plus and so much more!
massively overrated game
Really? Elden ring is my first souls game & it turned out easier then I thought. DEFINITELY a challenge don’t get me wrong but I thought souls games were like impossible. Then again I am only like 5 hours in. Fantastic game & makes me wanna play the other souls games. Didn’t have that much trouble with elden ring so far & I suck at video games lol
Just a little tip for people having trouble with stealth stabs like I was: you have to be completely still when you hold light attack, dont move the left stick in any direction or it will just light attack. Which makes it kind of a pain for moving enemies you try to stealth kill
You just can’t be running, thr backstab has to be aligned otherwise it won’t work
If you just focus/ target on them you’re fine
@@katdifranco Being targeted doesn't matter if you are moving the left stick while trying to stealth attack. It will still just light attack
@@yrpi5864 No you can't move the left stick in any direction while stealth attacking. It interupts it
@@alec57 Alright then, good luck, I dont know what else to say lmao.
When you come upon land squirts (the things that stand in shallow water and look like a weird cross between a turtle, slug and some creepy mollusk, that spray poison or rot mist into the air,) you can overload them with the same affinity via bow. So if you see land squirts that spray poison mist, you can shoot them with a poison arrow and it'll overload them and cause them to explode. There are a couple places where this trick comes in super handy.
Amazing!
I find fighting some bosses on horseback quite exciting actually, I took down Agheel last night on horseback and I had a blast weaving around and through his legs, him retreating and me charging after him like dualists, my favourite experience with a boss thus far in the game.
Adding to the armored enemy bit: if you don’t have a blunt weapon two-hand or just use heavy attacks. They won’t bounce off either. Great vid!!
Utilizing the pouches was definitely something I wish I explored sooner. Game changer not having to cycle through so many items to get to my flask.
This game is so addicting. Never played these "Soul" games. I'm immersed in the play, world, exploration, upgrades, and character development.
I fucking hate this game tf
Eh it’s great game but definitley overhyped
@@skae7181 why ?
@@skae7181 git gud
@@gentlepeeps3351 not over hyped. I have not played 15 hours straight on a game in a long long time
Small tip my buddy figured out is that you can interact with the walking mausoleums and when you do you can choose a single remembrance to duplicate. With that in mind you can turn them both in for BOTH rewards
And you can duplicate them even if you've already consumed/turned it in to the finger lady.
I tried to do this and it didn't work I heard only certain mausoleums work with certain remembrances.
@@ironman82tr I copied this from the wiki for you, one of these probably applies to your issue:
- Only one use per Mausoleum, pick wisely!
- There is currently a glitch that causes Remembrances to not show up in the duplication menu. Going away and coming back at a later time seems to fix this issue, sometimes.
- It should be noted that you cannot regain a Remembrance Weapon that you have already obtained (in the same playthrough at least).
- Mausoleums without a bell seem to have a limited pool of Remembrances you can choose from.
- The Castle Sol and Consecrated Snowfield Mausoleums appear to be bugged for some people where using one of them renders the other unusable but this seems to not apply to everyone
@@Kineticboy2K1 basically only bell mausoleums can be used for demigod remembrances
When you do normal attacks near a ledge and the drop from it would kill you, the game keeps you from goinfg over the edge. If you fall down, it's safe.
Finding another copy of a talisman doesn't result in a +1. For instance you'll always find Spelldrake Talisman +1 behind a sealed door in Sellia Town whether you got the regular Spelldrake Talisman from Runebear or not.
Couple tricks.
1) If you’re in a pinch or need to step away and want to actually pause the game, you can go into a menu (e.g. Equipment menu) then hit view button (on Xbox) then hit “Menu Explanation”. I find this to be real clutch. I imagine this works on other platforms.
2: If you’re stuck on a boss and keep dying in the fight area, losing your runes, you can enter the fight area, grab your dropped runes, and then quit to the main menu. This way you don’t feel like you either have to beat the boss or lose all your runes. You can just grab the runes and come back later when stronger
You can also use a sacrificial twig or twiggy cracked tear
Great tip
I’m happy to see so many new players joining in on the souls games. There’s a fantastic back catalogue to go back to after Elden Ring 🙂
u mean loads of deaths awaiting us 🙂
@SCYTHE try sekiro, its the best souls games i've ever played (already play elden ring but sekiro still no 1 for me)
@@jphosathe thing that puts me off Sekiro is, from what I’ve seen, when you lose a boss fight you can’t just redo the boss fight, you also have to make your way back to the boss through loads of other enemies
@@robertmurphy1974 No, you can just skip the enemies to the bosses. Sekiro have speedrun around 20 minutes (some of the fastest) and the speed runner just skip some mini bosses and enemies
@@jphosa okay mate, thanks for the info :)
Somethings I realized today :golden runes can be sold to merchants for the same amount as if you used them (just a time saver). There are pictured map markers to go along with the blue markers.
Lol. Today I learned they can be used instead of having to find someone to sell the to.
Scarabs also come in other colors depending on the type of item inside. There are gold ones with holy arts, different color blue ones with magic arts inside, different color red ones with blood arts inside etc.
Awesome stuff. Definitely a part 2. Heck I'd like a part 3, 4 as well.
5 & 6
Pls the more the better man thanks !
Agreed, I really liked the video. I've played DS3 and DeS, and have 40hrs in ER so far, and still learned a ton of new stuff. Faster ladder climbing?!!!
For real l
I have about 100 hours in this game and I still learned something, both the rainbow stones and the cracked pot tips were super nice to know, thanks man
Not sure if comment section brought it up yet but another way to find out if a fall will kill you or not with a little bit of chaos, spam light attack and if you fall off while attacking you will not die. If you get locked into an invisible wall then try to turn away from the edge so you don't die. =D
Awesome! Thanks
Would love a part 2 this had some genuinely helpful info. Thanks!
Like I have said in the past you guys put out the absolute best content tutorials and info videos 💯. I can't wait to start this game next week on my vacation from work.
Two-handing only boosts *Strength specifically, not simply *a stat. Also, I never knew the spirit springs could be used in reverse. I did wonder what would happen if I jumped down onto one, but never actually tried it yet.
Yep, we pinned that just below the video as a slight correction, but appreciate you commenting to let us know!
Definitely make a part 2! These are very helpful for us newbies to Fromsoftware
You got it!
It’s a punishing game but once you get use to how it works , you won’t be able to stop 👌
@@lucassheppard8212 I hope you're right lol...
I'm soooooo tempted to get this... I've never played any type of Souls games...🤦🏾😫😭
@@MrParis215 yeah dude I would say it’s worth it for sure. This is the first souls game I’ve played and I like it, I would say it’s like ghost of Tsushima or jedi fallen order on extra hard mode mixed with Shadow of the Colossus.
@@MrParis215 oh dude they are amazing games ! There’s no other games like the souls games! Just takes a lot of patience and alot of dying lol, but once you pass a boss or a place you’ve bin stuck at , it’s so satisfying! but no bro I think you’ll really like the game man 👌 I’d give it a try for sure
Useful tip about glowing skulls: You can roll over them to break them open instead of trying to melee them.
I wish i knew how absolutely *GOOD* sorceries were in the beginning. They make everything feel so much easier
I have a fireball so far, but I cant hit the broadside of a barn
Something I discovered and wanted to share. If you use frost damage on the arch dragon up at fort Faroth, you can rack up 10,000+ dmg thus killing him faster.
Also bleed. I dropped him in like 2 minutes @lvl75 with a bfb (black flame blade) great stars. 13.5k dmg everytime the bleed procs!
@@ChonkUm Very true, very true indeed. Hope this information helps others.
Lol. I did the cheese and just slashed at its tail for like an hour and a half while it napped.
I love the flask replenishment thing when you kill groups of enemies. It also works on single, harder enemies
A lot of silver scarabs can be shot with arrows with out scaring them. Helpful for not running into a trap trying to catch them.
Thank you. This was very helpful given how this is my first game tied to Dark Souls. I'm sure that I'll fair much better now.
I've restarted a few times just to get the feel of some classes and figuring out what keepsakes are worth it to me and which aren't. (I'd recommend the golden seed, so you get an extra flask). I have to say that even though the prisoner has been said to be better for more experienced players I'm enjoying playing it a lot. Especially after realizing the magic glintblade can backstab someone I'm fighting if aiming properly :) One thing I really like about this game is since there are no racials in it I can go with whatever look I want without worrying if I'm shooting myself in the foot stat wise.
8:31 lol I think he's more of a wondersteed than a wonderstead
Whoops lol
Took me honestly over 9 hours to really love that game! Was worth the wait and blood! 😂 But as my first fromsoft game, I finally get why you guys loved those games!
Souls vet here since demon's souls and I learn something even though I have 50 hours in Elden Ring. Please do a part 2. I also watch this videos from legacy because I know I learn something
My first game I played from these creator's. Man I had a hard time figuring it out haha. I wanted to get it my self, so I got most down, but I feel like I'm still missing a lot of info. I'm getting the hang of it. Badass game! My new favorite
Great played multiple of these games and still learned a lot. Let’s get a part 2!!!!!! Thanks
Hands down best beginner guide I’ve came across im so glad I sub to you guys y’all are great keep being awesome
I laughed when you went to explain ladders and learned I knew nothing about ladders so thanks
Something I discovered 30h in: You can actually charge incantations by holding down the attack key, so your fireball (or what it's called) is stronger
What??
@@ensulalachance8353 Yes you can pretty much charge up any incantation by holding down the button. Increases damage and sometimes range as well. I don't know if it costs more FP though
I didnt know that.... but I just learned yesterday I can charge my strong swing! 10 hours in
@@bluepill8077 I really recommend you use it! Your charged R2, jumping attacks and guard counters are very good for dealing poise damage and opening your enemies up for critical hits. Wouldn't have made it past some bosses without
Part 2, please. This was very useful! Thanks.
For kicking: just press forward and R1, if you dont want to unequip your main weapon.
Also, invest in Vigor early on
I just picked up Elden Ring yesterday for my birthday. Super Excited to try it out. As always Legacy Gaming you knock it out of the park. I am a total noob at this game, and these tips are going to help a lot. I have never played any souls game. I am ready for a part 2.
Take it slow and don't get greedy with your attacks. The game is more about poking the beast till you are strong enough to full send it.
I got it for my birthday too! It's so fun
I'd love a part 2, great guide for newbies.
3:38 It’s actually so much simpler to add the flasks of tears to your pouch and use them that way. Same with the spectral steed whistle and the rune arc
I appreciate what you said at the beginning of this video. One thing I wish I knew was just how snobby and elite the attitudes would be from some Dark Souls vets. It reminded of when I first started playing WoW four years after it came out.
This was excellent! Compact, no nonsense, lots of good info. Thank you!
removing the ash of war from the shield so I can use it more easily on my main weapon is awesome thanks for the tip
Another fun fact about poison and just being dirty in general: You can get soap throughout the game and clean your self without resting at Grace, and it also removes poison buildup logically enough lol
I just started playing... It's crazy learning all this info
First game I ever played in souls I’m more into monster hunter tbh as a veteran I played sekiro all the way to the final battle which I’m still on…and I’m only 20 hours in like level 39 and beat godrick and a huge tree and plenty dungeon bosses this game is unbelievably cool in every aspect and it feels good to get those juicy swords I stuck with vagabond str8 up close n personal baby 😏
I didn’t finish the last boss in sekiro. It’s an unfair fight and you’ll lose all your items (don’t remember what they’re called). Shame cause it was a good game
@@timmypantelis8489 what are you talking about? He is completely beatable without a single item, the only bosses that require any item to beat are the headless and they only require divine confetti and can actually be beaten entirely by deflection. Demon of Hatred doesn't even require items either, though the umbrella helps, and he is harder and far more bullshit than Sword Saint. Hell, if you could beat the apes San firecracker, there isn't a single.boss you can't beat in this game. The one thing you may want, the lightning return, is given to you permanently before the first boss that uses it. I take it you haven't beaten Owl then?
Dont have to hold R1 to backstab only need to press and be in the correct position/monster animation state
I almost gave up on this game, but started watching these tutorials👌🏻 for me, combat is the hardest.
By-Far one of the best Beginner & Tips Spoiler Free Videos out there, and I am tens of hours In & the game (relishing) & did not know about the 'Ashes of War:No Skill' Use! TY Guys.
Super informative as always! Thank you Codiak and Livid! You guys are amazing!
Much love Phantom!
Also top tip when trying to get the fire pillars to go down without a bow or find fake walls.. if you have Margits or Mohg's Shackles you can use these items and lower the fire pillars and also take out fake walls ;-)
How you know it’s a fake wall?
Just started playing recently. Had no idea about tossing a glowing stone off a side to see if you will die
Thank you for this video, I was so very lost and overwhelmed in my discovery of soul like game(s). So far I'm getting accustomed to it. There's a lot of "head" or lack there of in the while glowing messages to the point I barely check them now.
one correction: you can use your special ability (L2/RT) while dual wielding weapons as long as they are both of the same type (i.e. 2x longsword, or 2x Greatsword, or 2x Hammer etc.)
Thanks for expanding on that point! Definitely worth pointing out.
??? You don't need powerstance weapons to use your right hand weapon skill bro. All dual wielding the same class of weapons in both hands does is replace your guard button with the dual wield attack. The weapon ash has nothing to do with this.
I just started the game yesterday. I'm late to the party but loving it.
Dude, thanks. Great video and, as a New souls player, this was incredibly helpful.
Cheers
As a new mage player, this was extremely helpful!! Especially about the ashes of War! I already knew I wasn't able to use it duel wielding, so thank you for that tip!
Some more advice on ashes of war: apart from changing the weapon's special ability they can also change the weapon's scaling, so if you're playing mage you might find an ash of war that will put intelligence scaling on it
I love this game, I played for 7 hours straight the first time I launched it
Me too, that was yesterday 🥰
Thanks! First time playing this type of game and while I've actually got a whole lot figured out there were many things you've made me aware of. And I admit it, 12 hours in and I didn't know there was a sprint button lol
That's why we put it in there haha. We try to always look for things that may seem obvious, but because of their implementation or where their hotkeys are assigned, players can easily miss a lot of stuff.
I made almost to the end thinking i wasnt about to learn a damn thing, and then you showed the throwing the stone off cliff to check survivability trick... Nice! Ive playing all FS games and did not know that. Probably a rare use but happy to learn something new!
I visit the dragon ruins in the river on first map out of my curiosity I open the chest and my god I experience Hell for 1hr after being teleported
Lmaooo haha
12:26 dodge rolling over the skull also breaks it in case you don't want to mount up, or don't feel like swatting at it 500x just to get the correct angle.
The lootsense is awesome can't believe i didnt notice very helpful!
The console version the PS5 version is amazing Elden ring is a masterpiece in my opinion it will be the game I look at user now to compare with other open world games
PC superior. No need to spread asscheecks for online features
@@barrontrump3943 the stutter on PC is worse experience, unless they've gotten around to fixing.
@@Kenshin0011 no stutter it’s solid and without framedrop. People are just bad at managing their pcs
Thank you for this. I've yet to get started, (been on Lost Ark) so this will be helpful once I begin! 👍🏾
Hopefully it helps you on your Elden Ring journey!
I want to add that stonesword keys can also be purchased if you haven’t noticed already. I also noticed if you tap sprint with torrent and you equip and Unequip the weapon at the same time repeatedly, torrent has unlimited sprint. You just need to keep doing it. You can kill a merchant and take what they drop to the round table to be able to purchase what they had. If you dismount torrent right before you get hit, you may avoid getting hit yourself. Just small tips
Elden Ring is my first From Software game and it’s definitely a learning experience.
Great vid! You should add advice for PC players regarding special abilities controls. Apparently, PC players need to change heavy attack in the keybinding settings in order to use 2nd special attacks from weapons that have 2 abilities (ie. moonveil katana horizontal special) Shout out to skrillex544 for the info!
I’m new to souls but I feel like I’m missing something. Yes this video explains a lot but at the beginning I’m stuck trying to figure out how the game work. I’m so weak with no clue how to get loot. Idk what’s going on how to use combat. How to figure out loot. Is there a video explaining any of this
one tip ill give you as a fellow new player, if you ever played skyrim, or any other elder scroll game, you gotta take a moment and figure your essentials, and how to improve them, every enemy has a pattern you can dodge/exploit to a degree, they are telegraphed. id say for a few lives take your time getting a feel for distancing, and what moves your enemies will use at an distance, and up close to close in on you.
do not just hold too many runes otherwise on death, you will get salty,
always update your armor/ weapons with new and more impressive stuff.
in a new area search for the nearest site of grace.
7:20 you can also 2 hand to stop your weapon from bouncing
One main thing I didnt realize fully until after playing a long time is that the combat in elden ring isnt like the soul games. Jumping and using your heavy attack can stagger and does more damage than ground attacks. Also, if you press R2 after blocking a hit, you will do a strong counter. It doesn't work against combo attacks so use it wisely
I’ve never really played any souls games but I’m LOVING elden ring
I'm not a Dark Souls God or anything but this game is so one-sided and unfair its ridiculously funny. This game was designed to kill you get that in your head now. The damage is unreal how hard enemies hit.
Yet your damage output is so low you would cause more damage with a wooden spoon. I hate this game but it has beaten me down so much that I refuse to let it defeat me....lol. it's personal now.
Almost everything you face is OP I have never been so cautious to encounter with any game I ever played but that's what makes it fun.
Best thing we could advise is to grind areas of enemies for runes and upgrade your stats where you are really struggling, then try again.
dunno what to say except the usual git gud because that's all it really boils down to lol
Use str/dex or quality till you get far enough to reliably collect all the stuff you need for a magic build. Get far enough in early game to unlock respeccing. Respec into magic. Big boy damage numbers
Thanks for the feedback, fellas. I'm starting to get the hold of what's going on now... lol Things really changed when I finally got my steed. I started farming the same location a few hours and then sold items to level up pretty quickly. Changing to the samurai helped also.
I started with Confessor class because of fashion souls, but I was getting slaughtered with the broad sword
Oh yeah... it didn't help when opening the secret chest that teloports you to the Crystal cave area that happily flogged me into running in the Caelid / Poisonous alien lake area. And two 12ft wingless crows gorilla stomped me out.
I swear I thought I was in the 12th circle of hell...it really had me defeated, so I deleted and started over.
@@black8thelement8008 ah thanks great. I play a confessor and I just got ported into that cave. XD sounds like fun. I found confessor ok so far. Blocking then counterstrike is cool. But i also just looked up a build and tipps cause I was about to throw my tower out of the window and quit gaming forever. 😅
Wow... Great video. I literally stopped playing the game because I could not so some of the stuff I wanted to but this video has allowed me to understand and take that giant leap into the unknown.
As a complete noob to RPG games (didn't even play with a controller before) tips like this are great.
Extra pro tip: if you want to reach down a far ledge, use torrent then click jump at the edge and double jump a decent height before the ground. Only the distance from the second jump is considered
false
literally didn't know you could sprint lmao
Been intrigued by this game for a long time but always looked too difficult. I bought it two days ago and haven't been able to put it down. It's my first souls game and I've no idea what's going on. I'm dying a lot but I keep coming back for more! Thanks for this video, helps a lot. I'm excited to watch your other videos on ER.
Within the first minute of the video I decided to subscribe just because of how in touch with the fan base you are, clearly not some watch mojo tutorial💯
If you have a hard time back stabbing, ask my ex for tips!
A tip they missed. Don't use a wiki. The best part of these games is discovering everything yourself and figuring out enemies and bosses.
Nah I just started last night and I’ve been looking at guides all day 🤣 too hard to figure out so I just watch others do it so I can do it and not waste time dying lol.
BEASTLY tips!been thinking about this one and now it's a MUST
This video was so informative and amazing. I'm level 100 and just learnt some stuff seriously!!!
Great video! I didn't know several of these tips! Helped alot!
I haven't been playing very long and knew about going up/down ladders faster (as well as being able to use flasks), but actually hadn't even considered that you could attack (makes sense you can, I just never even thought to try). Also, you can roll over the skulls to break them. I didn't start playing until patch 1.08, but heard a lot of grief on the struggles of attacking those skulls initially. Rolling over them while moving around is quick and easy as well.
i just got this game on my gaming laptop and man.. its beautiful! ive only played sekiro and just a little of dark souls 1.. and im having a blast being a bandit… 1-shotting fools from behind!
Fantastic guide and great work! Ver y professional, clear and very easy to follow. Super! Thanks a lot for this great content.
At first I watched all these videos about how to get the best weapon etc. and I played about to level 90 but a lot of the time I felt stuck not knowing what to do. So I started a new l game and started using armour/cookbooks and not the best weapon, instead scaling a very basic early game weapon for now and crafting. So much more fun.
