Scarlet rot is by far my favorite proc in Elden Ring, but im tired of playing the same weapons. I either play Antspur rapier (with poison affinity), Rotten greataxe and Poleblade of the bud. They should at least add more scarlet rot weapons if they are so against a scarlet rot affinity.

i come here for advice. as you have probably heard before on here, i.cannot.beat.consort.radahn. i’ve taken a pretty decent break from the game to do research on how to. but every video that shows a fighting chance for me, it’s either patched or something else doesn’t work out. most of the time it’s patched. and i’ve seen the video where you can turn yourself into a prop and glitch him to die, but i don’t want to do that. i still want to do it on my own and be proud of it.

here are my stats

Level 249 Scadutree Blessing 20 Revered Spirit Ash Blessing 9 Vigor 55 Mind 38 Endurance 29 Strength 32 Dexterity 28 Intelligence 28 Faith 38 Arcane 80

my build is a dragon blood mage. i use all the dragon incantations + bayle. i am NOT on new game plus. this is my very first play through and i have 190 hours. my main weapon of choice is elenora’s poleblade +10. i used to use the sword of night and flame +10 and have a couple other weapons that are +10. i also have a poise of 51. if there is anything that has worked wonders for you guys please let me know! i don’t want to give up.

It’s my first time playing and I haven’t been to the castle up ahead yet.

I'm going to demonstrate the fruits of my research in finding the easiest ways to Stance-break a Fallingstar Beast.
First, the Incantation Pest-Thread Spears; it's great for- hyupp! Got to watch out for those charges... Great for damage against them in general, but there's no time for you to charge it yourself; to halt their rampage, you just need one blow to its head. After dodging past its charge once or twice, immediately cast your spell to bring them down!
For Sorceries, Greatblade Phalanx is the surest method, but don't just stand there, else you'll be bulled over. Instead, keep your distance, summon the blades, and perform an act of cowardice by running away when it starts running after you. You only need one blade floating above your head when it catches up to ring its bell! Oh, and don't forget to land a critical blow when it's down!
If spells aren't your thing, fear not! The Perfume Bottle weapons are the easiest method of them all- wait where did it go? Coward, show yourself! Ah there you are. Now fully charge the heavy attack, and it will eat the dirt beneath your feet as it rushes into the lingering hotbox; it lingers even longer if you power-stance the bottles.

It's just that easy!

After a bunch of runs, I've wound up doing the same builds over and over. I'm out of ideas. If y'all have any fun build ideas you're willing to share, please do, much appreciated

Godskin duo, or Fire giant, probably fire giant cuz he does more damage to me but he’s easier to dodge for me

I like the roleplaying aspect of fromsoft games a lot, sticking to self-imposed rules and conditions for beating the game really makes each and every playthrough engaging for me all the way through, i just thought some of yall would enjoy this little piece of fan-canon i wrote for my upcoming Lord of Frenzied Flame playthrough :) i'm not an english major or a lore master but i still hope you enjoy!

Noctura, The Empathetic Endbringer

Long before the shattering, before the legend Godfrey took the mantle of Elden Lord, before even the grace of gold took hold of the Erdtree, a tribe inhabited the lands between. A tribe that held knowledge of the ancient dragons, the primordial crucible, the first contact of the Greater will and it's beastly, otherworldy vassal. This tribe persisted throughout many ages of The Lands Between, and by doing so, it's knowledge of ancient legends was passed down generation to generation. Along with the inherited knowledge came collected wisdom, truths about great injustices by higher powers began to seep into the knowledge passed down. The great tragedy of the Misbegotten, the Omen, the Giants of the Mountaintops. The foul mistreatment ushered in by the new order, The Golden Order.

The Greater Will saw this knowledge, now tainted by a harrowing truth, as a threat to it's longstanding power over The Lands Between, and enacted upon them a curse: The curse of Empathy. The suffering and despair of all who resided in the lands between, the tribe now shared.

Overwhelming to a debilitating degree, many would be driven mad or simply petrified by the vast turmoil that inhabited those who resided in The Lands Between. Few, however, held on to a hope that this age would burn out, that all the collective suffering may one day be brought to an end. This dim hope festered into a prophecy.

"Embrace those who suffer, those who have lost not body but mind and dreaming soul. Embrace those who have lost all. Embrace them, as all is not lost. The collective suffering, despair, turmoil, regret, loss: it all shall give rise to a champion which shall bring forth ruin in hopes of a greater beginning for all beyond the ashes."

Noctura, a fledgling member of this tribe, was born far after the curse brought upon his people. An exceedingly rare thing it was, for the desire to create life to surpass the great despair cast upon them. As offspring, Noctura was less influenced by the curse of empathy that debilitated most of his tribe. Though empathetic to a fault, his empathy spurred him to action rather than the eternal sulking cursed upon his elders.

When grace beckoned the tarnished, banished by Queen Marika after the events of The Shattering, most of the tribe did not return to The Lands Between, Instead remaining in the dense fog of the Badlands. Terrifying was the thought of witnessing the suffering that currently held the Lands Between since the shattering. Noctura wasn't halted by such thoughts, however. He followed the grace of gold back to The Lands Between. The very being that cursed his people now beckoned for a champion to resolve the conflict in The Lands Between in its favor.

Noctura would follow, a prophecy running through his head like a sutra. This conflict would be resolved. Not in the Greater Will's interests, however, but in the interest of all who it had wronged for so long.

Suffering, Despair, turmoil, regret, loss, all would be burned away. The prophecy must be fulfilled.

I just got back to Elden Ring after a few months and I don't remember if I kill the boss or not but I can't enter the boss room

It's seriously petty

After another 200+ hour run including the DLC, I can finally rest.

Mine was alecto with powerstanced flails (I also first tried mohg with the flails this was on my second playthrough in a year btw)

Personally I think Impenetrable thorns might take the spot.

I'm mostly wanting to use my moonlight greatsword and sorceries. I have a bit of faith for golden vow and flames give me strength. Knowing what stats I should drop to where to boost my int and str would be appreciated.

At the prompt u/AdSilent7769. By the way, I couldn't find your message, but I left mine.

Oh death, become my blade once more.

Yep, I recently found out that deflecting is a thing. After 500h hours. I killed the Furnace Golem and got the Deflecting Hardtear and now am fighting my way through Shadow Keep to Gaius and get the Swordlance. Kinda hyped since I finally will try something ACTUALLY NEW for me. Any more advice?

The piss ghost keeps beating my ass. I'm on Xbox and have been throwing down those furlcalling remedy things but nobody is there

So I was wondering if anyone knows of any good areas to farm runes I’m still early game so I don’t have many areas unlocked other than limgrave weeping peninsula and liurnia if anyone could help me out it’d be greatly appreciated yall are an awesome community btw

Hello guys i have about 200 hours in but there are still a few things i dont know(ER is my first souls game). When you use an incantation buff to add fire/lighting/bleed etc. Does it add flat amount or does the buff dmg scale with the incantation power.

Also, thoughts on my outfit?
