  • ELDEN Ring is a huge game with so many places to explore and discover. It is also incredibly easy to miss some of the coolest spots. Here are some off the beaten path locations that you may have missed during your time in The Lands Between.
    Ps. Some of the VO wonks out a bit. Don't worry. It's not you, it's me. Ever used that line before?

    You missed a couple things at the Chapel of Anticipation (#5 in your video). Run back to the starting church and go through the door that was previously locked and you will get the Stormhawk King, which you need to give to Nepheli Loux to complete her quest (and get two ancient dragon smithing stones) as well as the stormhawk deeh ashes. Also, you can go to the maiden in that church to get the bloody cloth of a maiden for Varre's quest, which is much faster than going to Vyke's Church.

    If you want to progress varre's questline offline/faster, you can just do the volcano manor lady questline which involves invades npc's world. You can just invade and lose 3 times and come back to varre to continue his questline. This will complete his quest and get to mogh before getting into Ariandel. But be careful, this will most likely gives you hard times in the mogh's palace or fighting mogh. Because you may still underlevel to get to there. Believe me, the mobs are tough. And Mogh might be kinda bs. It took me a LOT of tries and rune arcs and I'm still losing. But with a mimic tear it's not even 1 minute to beat him and he doesn't even have time to transition to phase 2.

    For Varre's quest, you don't have to invade others. For those who don't like to play online there is a possibility to invade an NPC in the Writheblood Ruins in the NW of the Altus plateau. In the northeastern part of the ruins, Magnus the Beast Claw's invasion sign can be found. He can be defeated to progress White Mask Varré's questline without playing online. He drops the Great Stars great hammer. Now you can swing two of them if you like. 👍

    While I think your video may be helpful to some players, none of those areas are really difficult to find if you just explore the map, and do as many NPC quests as you can. I mean, I didn't have that hard of a time finding all of areas in your video. But it's nice you're pointing those things out to new players who may be unfamiliar with FROM Software's style of games --- those players are the ones that will benefit the most from this video.
