It would be hyperbole, at best, to say that Miquella is a villain in. To achieve his goals, Miquella may resort to ruthless methods, but said methods are consistently less atrocious than the limb harvesting of Elden Ring 's Godrick the Grafted , the blasphemy of Rykard, or the genocidal imperialism of Queen Marika. Every piece of game lore about Miquella suggests that he genuinely loves his sister Miquella, genuinely wants to free her from the Scarlet Rot, and genuinely wants to be a good lord to his follow

Rykard's true fall from grace, outside his growing disdain for the ideals imposed on him by The Greater Will, started when he chose Mt. Gelmir as the location to begin his new era in the Lands Between. Blessed with the gift of sorcery from his mother, Rennala, Rykard discovered ancient hexes and powerful dark magic within the depths of the mountain. Thus, decided to construct his entire kingdom from the base of Mt. Gel

Of course, the age difference probably isn't the weirdest thing about this relationship, but To Catch A Predator 's Chris Hansen probably wouldn't agree. Known for the various Dateline stings in which he was involved, Reddit user u/Naksupro imagines that Hansen would have a few questions ready for Elden Ring 's odd o

Instead of a simple wind-up and swing, Elden Ring bosses will wind up, feint, dodge, duck, and only swing at the least opportune time for the player. Margit, the Fell Omen is particularly guilty of this, and, as one of the first bosses new players are likely to encounter, he makes for a great "welcome to Elden Ring " mom

The school Night Sorceries, associated with the abandoned town of Selia, contains a niche defensive spell called Eternal Darkness (no relation to the Nintendo's Eternal Darkness , a GameCube survival horror game), which summons a black hole that sucks in magic projectiles. Two other non-damaging Night Sorceries, Unseen Blade and Unseen Form, respectively let Tarnished player characters turn their weapons and bodies invisi

Besides hinting a potential Miquella-themed DLC for Elden Ring , this revelation complicates the more-or-less straightforward picture of Miquella's goals in the main game of Elden Ring multiplayer guide Ring (which may be why this quest-line was cut). Does Miquella, in his guise of St. Trina, gather dreams in order to help his subjects and heal his sister Malenia? Or is the world gestating within his heart a more selfish attempt to escape his old reality and create a new one where his dreams actually come t

The next room has a couple of Imps patrolling, so be careful. Loot the Grave Violet growing just before entering the room. Defeat the Imps, and on the opposite side of the room before leaving, make sure to loot the Grave Glovewort [3] growing from the dirt by a torch in the w

Are the acts of devotion described above borne from a genuine love of Miquella, or did this innocent-looking Demigod cultivate mind-altering magic in order to assemble a cult of loyal zealots that he could use to enact his ambition? Nothing in the lore of Elden Ring suggests that Miquella was cruel or callous towards the people who loved him, but his public displays of benevolence could have pragmatic (rather than moral) motivations behind t

When the last Tarnished is slain, you are granted a special meeting with the true Lord of Volcano Manor, the giant grotesque monstrosity that resides at the base of Mt. Gelmir, Rykard, Lord of Blasph

Again, both Burial Watchdog bosses employ this move. Despite the move’s unnatural movement, it’s perhaps one of the easier moves to dodge. They stand up on their hind legs and walk toward you. You can sprint away, but due to the size of the room, it’s probably better to face this one head-on. At the last moment, they will raise their sword/staff a fraction higher – this is your queue to dodge. They will quickly slam their weapon down on the ground. If you dodge this right, their recovery after the move provides you with the opportunity to get a few attacks

Considering just how fleshed out Ranni's quest line is compared to others, one could question whether or not it truly would count as a side quest. However, with all the content available, this turns out to be an easy contender for the best side quest in the g

When you first reach the highly-imposing castle etched into the side of Mt. Gelmir, the landscape is filled with both elegance and despair as the once might of Volcano Manor is mirrored in both its towering visage and scarred with flame and destruction etched along its edges. And deep within the depths beyond lava and fire resides the source of pure evil -- Lord of Volcano Manor, son of the Champion of the Erdtree Radagon and Queen Rennala of the Academy of Raya Luc
