Best grodrick and got my first rune. It say raises attributes but I don't see my stats increases.

Gonna double back and finish Limgrave, should have enough runes to get str to 30 so I can one hand the gold halberd
i believe you need to use a rune arc to activate it, and it has to be re-activated upon death

I'm still extremely early in the game, but I just can't seem to get the hang of fighting multiple enemies, especially while riding a horse :snoop: auto-lock just doesn't cut it sometimes, I'm struggling to switch targets fast enough

Seems like a lot of my attacks end up missing because I end up locked onto the wrong target, then I just get attacked from behind. Guess I need more practice. :snoop:


On the bright side, I found some giant enemy next to a Site of Grace (I think by the Church of Marika) that I could exploit for level farming. He gives up an easy 1000xp every time I beat him (even though he's a bit of a pain) and since he's right next to the Site of Grace I can just beat him, go rest, then beat him again to my hearts content. I think I spent like two hours last night beating this guy over and over just so I could go up 5 or 6 levels. :heh:

I went on a hell of a run last night :whew:

Beat the two Tree Sentinels in the Altus Plateau, beat the Fallingstar Beast in the same area, got the first Smithing Stone bell, took out another Night Cavalry fukkboi, and took out another one of those nasty snake trees. Found a few powerful skills and weapons too, I'm ready as hell to tackle whatever boss is in the Plateau

Bloodhound Step might be one of my favorite arts, I'm out here moving like it's Bloodborne and the enemies can't keep up!

:win:

is this better than bloodborne :lupe:

Depends on who you ask. I love Bloodborne and think it probably has the most cohesive gameplay in the From series but I felt it had a lack of playstyles that you get in this game and even Dark Souls 3 so I have them above it

There is something so simple about being a brute. Don't give a damn about FP. No blue pots..don't need to kill those blue fukkers to refresh. Just bash my head against whatever the lock-on button determines has a health bar.

I always consider doing a magic build in these games but for whatever reason hanging back and firing spells is too boring for me. On the other hand swinging around ridiculously large weapons never gets old

In Elden ring you can truly have best of both worlds.

Im a mele character, but most of my weapons have a magic/status effect shadow art that gives me some range too.:blessed:
