The blood-lusting birds are too agile for ranged attacking and stay too far away to use melee, aggravating their target consistently. Slashing erratically isn’t all they can do, these skilled beings will even toss explosive barrels toward players, knocking their prey back with ease without a chance to coun

As far as jack-of-all-trades staffs in Elden Ring go, the Carian Regal Scepter might be the best of the bunch. As one might expect from such a weapon, it has a daunting Intelligence requirement of 60, but the payoff is arguably worth the trou

Paying close attention to attack patterns proves to be key in many of the sticky situations in Elden Ring , but this is most certainly not always the case, especially against those with unpredictable movement. In fact, a few decently common foes can even be more challenging than some of the game's bosses. Having continued to challenge millions of fans around the world with its several strategically focused foes, like Warhawks and Revenants, the question still remains as to which are the hardest of the common o

Fanged Imps can also seem to be camouflaging themselves, ready to ambush an unsuspecting or new Elden Ring player . While outside of melee range, these creatures use grenades and fling daggers at their target with surprising accuracy. In addition, they have immunity to all debuffs, something to be aware of when initiating com

Using the word annoying to describe this strange shrimp cross human is an understatement. The creatures live up to their name, crawling around on a great number of limbs with supernatural quickness and prodding players once they get close enough, which doesn’t take l

Lusat's Glintstone Staff requires heavy stat investment, but the rewards will be great for players that want to become a sheer force of nature when it comes to raw magical damage. It has a high Intelligence requirement of 52 and costs a hefty amount of FP to attack with

While it might seem to be parasitic, the relationship between Miquella and his Haligtree is actually more symbiotic. In Elden Ring , Miquella's cocoon is the only form in which he's seen. Mohg, as someone obsessed with Miquella, cuts him out of the Haligtree and takes him away, and due to this, both the Haligtree and Miquella suffer, displaying their symbiotic relationship. The Haligtree is not a parasite, and it's unfortunate that its potential is never realized due to Mohg's actions. Since Miquella's status is unknown, if he's alive, it's possible that he might try to salvage the Haligtree, or he might start over if it can't be sa

A true speedster, Dragonflies can dodge just about anything you implement against them by using their varying flight patterns. Despite being named Giant Dragonflies, they are actually quite small, but undoubtedly make up for it with their annoying nat

Fitting, given its name and where it's found, the Rotten Crystal Staff is good for its unique ability to build up Scarlet Rot on enemies. It's found Elphael, Brace of the Haligtree, which is also home to one of the most compelling bosses in Elden Ri

Astel has a lot of AoE attacks, along with several powerful grabs. He teleports around the arena and will use his mandibles to bite the player. Plus, when players first enter the arena, Astel does a beam attack that has a chance to one-shot the player. Getting one shot over and over before even getting close enough to him is exhausting. Astel is an annoying fight that can probably be skipped unless players are completing Ranni’s quest. Later in the game, another version of Astel called Astel, Stars of Darkness can be encountered in the Yelough Anix Tun

However, Elden Ring ’s 1.03 patch changed everything for Royal Knight’s Resolve. Post-patch, the Ash of War can only enhance the weapon it is on or any equipped shields, leaving its effect largely negligible. What makes this nerf even more effective is that a lot of Elden Ring ’s best weapons come with their own Ash of War that cannot be removed or magically enhanced, meaning Royal Knight’s Resolve cannot be used with most meta weap

Elden Ring is an open-world RPG created with help from author George R.R. Martin that is set in the Lands Between, where the Greater Will's influence is the most dominant amongst the Outer Gods that have come in search of power. It is the Greater Will that sends the Elden Ring to the Lands Between, and it raises Marika to godhood so she can contain the Elden Ring as its vessel. However, life under the influence of the Greater Will isn't what all residents of the Lands Between desire, and many of them begin to grow disillusioned with the Greater Will and its Golden Boss Order Nightreign. The demigods, in particular, stray away from the Greater Will and seek their own paths and power in Elden Ri
