Bad Elden Ring Weapons FromSoftware Can Still Save

Though there are only nine legendary armaments to collect in order to earn this achievement, they're all very well hidden and demand a thorough exploration of every corner of The Lands Between. Plus, weapons such as the Grafted Blade Greatsword and Marias Executioner's Sword are locked behind some pretty formidable boss batt


That said, some of the game's legendary sorceries and incantations are pretty tough to find. Many are tucked away in obscure spots and require some light puzzle solving to access. There are only seven of them in total, so it's not too much of a chore, but most players aren't likely to find them all in a single playthrough unless they're specifically looking for t


Zweihander is a famous weapon, having been in previous Souls games. However, like in previous games, the Zweihander is not good. In Elden Ring , the traveling Isolated Merchant in the Weeping Peninsula sells the weapon . The Zweihander is a colossal weapon that scales in strength and dexterity, but it has the lowest attack rating. It has an interesting move set, and players can infuse it with Ashes of War, but there are better colossal weapons in the g


The Torchpole is one of Elden Ring 's most straightforwardly named items, being quite literally a torch on the end of a pole. The weapon has good range, inflicts small amounts of fire damage, and lights up dark areas, but it is a lackluster weapon overall, despite the interesting concept. When fully upgraded, the Torchpole does adequate damage, but there are stronger, more versatile spears in the game. Infusing or buffing the weapon is impossible, and players cannot change the weapon’s sk


The largest region that players have difficulty accessing may be the Consecrated Snowfield. This high-level area can only be reached once the player obtains both left and right sides of the Haligtree Secret Medallion, which can be found after defeating Commander Niall (one of Elden Ring 's most annoying bosses ) in Mountaintops of the Giants, and by talking to an NPC in the Village of the Albinaurics respectively. Furthermore, entering a portal in this area takes the player to Miquella's Haligtree. This region leads of the game’s hardest bosses, including Loretta, Knight of the Haligtree, and the infamous Miquella hers


While there is a main storyline for players to follow, Elden Ring is filled to the brim with completely optional content. The number of mandatory Elden Ring map areas is shockingly small, and experienced players are able to beat the entire game in only a few hours. However, those who choose to explore the Lands Between encounter a huge host of optional content that ranges from minor enemy encounters to full-blown secret regions and complex storylines. Fighting through optional areas also helps players level up, which makes the game's more difficult storyline bosses significantly more managea


Fixing this mechanic in a future update doesn't seem likely, either for Elden Ring 's Eclipse Shotel or other Death Blight weapons and skills. Given that the mechanic seems mostly to have been changed to affect PvP balance, trying to fix it further could cause a domino effect of imbalances. For a weapon with such a cool design and lore, it's a shame that what should be its coolest feature ends up a disappointm


Some illusory walls lead to more valuable items than others. For dagger-wielding players, an illusory wall in the Black Knife Catacombs leads to a boss fight with a Black Knife Assassin. Once defeated, he drops the Assassin’s Cerulean Dagger talisman, which restores 15 FP with each critical attack. He also drops the Black Knifeprint, a key item in both Sorcerer Rogier and Fia’s questlines. Another important hidden wall in Liurnia of the Lakes is located on the ground next to Ranni’s Rise - inside this hidden basement lies Seluvis’ puppet resembling Sorceress Sellen. This cellar must be visited as part of Sorceress Sellen’s Elden Ring questline and ruins imprisonment , which grants the player the Comet Azur spell upon complet


This may be one of the more challenging fights in the game, but players can summon other players for help. Other than being a hard encounter, the crucible knights are some of the coolest enemies in the SLG game Resource management. They are very lore-heavy - especially Ordovis, who served Godfrey - and defeating this duo gives the players the Crucible Axe Set , the second set of Crucible armor in the g

The Eclipse Shotel is a strange weapon for this list because it has decent physical damage. If a player equips the weapon in both hands, they can deal some serious damage to enemies and other players. However, the exciting part of this weapon is the infliction of Death Blight, but after a patch, the Death Blight buildup is very slow, and most in-game enemies are immune to it in the first place. Even for PvP encounters, invaders are generally killed before Death Blight can be trigge


The Vulgar Militia Shotel is another halberd weapon that can be farmed in the same area as the Militia Saw. It has a cool design, and the hook blade does allow it to ignore enemy shields, but the Militia Shotel has the same problem as the Saw: it cannot keep up with other halberds in the game despite the decent dexterity scal
