    Elden Ring Tips and Tricks

    There are many Souls veterans playing Elden Ring. Some players have already completed tons of quests. So this post is not for them. Veteran players may learn something new about the Souls game, but this post is especially for new players trying Elden Ring for the first time. Let’s jump into Elden Ring tips and tricks for new players.

    Elden Ring Tips and Tricks

    As you progress through the game, you will eventually come across a woman who gives a free hug. If you hug, you will gain a consumable called Baldachin’s Blessing. This item reduces your HP by 5% but gives a boost to Poise for a limited time. Poise is a base stat that determines your resistance to enemy attacks.

    One of the weaknesses of Elden Ring is the lack of direction. You may feel lost from time to time in the open world of the game. However, there is a little secret that will make navigation easier. When you find new Sites of Lost Grace, follow the tendrils of the lights. These tendrils of light pointing in different directions will tell you where to find the next story.

    Reaper statue

    It is pretty difficult to find caves and catacombs in Elden Ring. There are many of them, but if you do not know the trick, it is not easy to discover. So if you are looking for a dungeon, you need to find a Reaper statue first. These statues indicate that a cave is nearby. You can find the way to the dungeon by lighting the Reaper statue.

    Illusory Walls

    Fake walls always deceive you when you’re walking around. There are tons of fake walls hiding something valuable in the game. If in doubt, hit the wall and find out if it’s real or fake.

    Upgrading your weapons is one of the most important aspects of Elden Ring. Because base stats don’t affect damage as much as your weapon. By upgrading your weapons, you can progress deeper into the game more quickly. Church of Elleh upgrades weapons up to +3. The Blacksmith can upgrade basic weapons to +25.

    There are tons of mines in the game, just like dungeons. If you look at the map, you will see reddish circles in different places. The reddish circle indicates the location of a mine. Creatures in these mines are often resistant to piercing weapons. So upgrading other types of weapons makes your job much easier.

    There is a trick that makes defeating enemies much easier for shield users. Just don’t hold down the block button while fighting. Although it is easy, it has a downside. Holding down the block button will limit your stamina regeneration and your stamina will run out pretty quickly. You can keep your shield up as you step back. By doing this, you can protect yourself from the arrows or spells that come at you.

    If you like to play as an archer, you can attack faster with the jump and fire technique. Shooting after a jump or dodging roll will give you extra arrow speed.
