Elden Ring (PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S/One) is a massive game, and it's not over at the "end" screen. Here's what you should do after the end. Subscribe for more: th-cam.com/users/gameranxTV?su... #EldenRing
NOTE: we originally made this video before a few patches and some minor things might be out of date regarding Alexander and the Sword of Night and Flame. the video is being updated to remove those parts.
@ well, everyone wants to jump on that elden ring money train. Give'em a break. :D Content is well made, it might just be outdated as in this case. Which tbh made me check upload date- as it should have been posted over 2 weeks ago
@@krzysiekj2522 They were waiting to release to try and get Falcon to say Maliketh, not Marila lol. After 2 weeks they couldn't get the name right and had to get this content out.
UPDATE: The Bell bearing carry over now. The rune farm is also very helpful so you can purchase a ton of Smithing Stone and Somber Smithing Stone after giving the bell bearings to the twin Husks. The bell bearings don't carry over but anything in your inventory does. So if you have 100 of each smithing Stone, you're set for any new weapon you might find.
And if you don't need the Stones you can sell them to get runes for whatever you want to do with it. It's like storing runes that won't disappear if you die.
This comment needs more attention. I didnt know the bells wont carry over so i saw myself rushing trough the second run just to get all smithing bells again with a mostly boring build :(
I got lucky with Malenia. I caught her in a critical just before she went into her second phase cutscene... And she never regained all her health. So, I killed her second form in 1 hit.
@@yungmeanmug She has less wombo combo and sword attacks but uses her scarlet rot attacks more which are easier to deal with but Rot is a bitch so thats probably why.
You can google it and there are also TH-cam videos, 8 of them are in nokron and nokstella, I think 3 in liurnia, at least 1 in limgrave, Caelid, mountaintop of the giants and cosecrated snowfields each
For the invisible bridges in the game (either in Mountaintops of the Giant or in the dungeon leading to Haligtree), an easy way to cross it is to use Hoarfrost Stomp, it will reveal a huge area in front of you.
Make sure you guys use every walking mausoleum to duplicate any remembrances you want instead of going through it again in ng+. There’s only 7 but you get an extra remembrance and don’t worry if you already used it you can still duplicate it which is handy especially for the tougher bosses like Malenia
You should note that for every journey increase the runes rewarded increases so at the moghwyn farm spot at journey 1 one enemy reward about 2500 with gold scarab. On journey 2 they give 5 k and on 3rd 7500. Very important to know if you plan on power leveling
@@beauboyett8687 from what i can tell each journey up increase the runes gained from every enemy by the original amount on the first playthrough. So like the giant white dragon gives 75/150/225 k and so on
For the farming spot ,you can also use a bow and shoot at the giant bird enemy on the other side of the map. If you shoot it from the right spot (which is close to the grace), it will run towards you and fall off. Just rest at the grace to reset it and do it all over again. If you get the angle and timing right, you can shoot it and run to the grace to rest. By the time you rest at the grace, it will usually have time to fall down and die and you get your runes as your character is sitting down Combine that with the Golden Scarab talisman and Gold-Pickled Fowl Foot to get extra runes
edited new comment - Now that I believe almost everyone finished Elden Ring, I hope Elden Ring will have multiple updates (like how p 1.0.3 introduces Jar Burn/small Jar kid) I hope later updates will - Explain the role of the tall lady in north church - Return of Rya (the snake lady) (because she's so cute) - Miquela - Godwyn - Kid Jar return stronger as Alexander or better - And all cut contents returned back (the dream drink, mimic quest, varre burning face or something) previous comment - if anyone stuck at Malenia, USE Radahn's weapon fully upgrade along with your mimic, it sometimes cancelled out her attack. And phase 2, runaway from her AOE then continue spamming Star cry skills, she will mostly locked out of her action and always falls flat. There's a reason they keep mentioning how Malenia and Radahn always ended in draw.
Very correct! You can find a note from one of the nomadic merchants that explains if an enemy is in the air, a gravity skill that pulls, will pull them to the ground. For malrnia I believe it depends on the gravitas you're using (Alabaster lords sword, the blue white one, Radahns, or even the spell that shoots the cluster of blackholes to suck in the enemy)
Did you know that the little jellyfish you summon has a name. It’s called Amelia or something like that. This helps explain why a jellyfish is looking for it’s sister, as her sister is also a jellyfish.
Her name is Aurellia and if you go down from somwhere near the spot with the other jellyfish you can find a gravestone telling you about how they died before seeing the stars
If you run across the Jellyfish, she will talk about how she's looking for her sister and wants to see the stars or something. Summon your jellyfish next to her. I won't spoil the rest :)
@@AiR1DaN whaaat these spirits have back stories too!!!?? why can't I summon them I've tried using the rune arc but nothing is usable on my quick items do I need some sort of catalyst?
There should be an option to reset map discovery in NG+. Having everything open by default when you start the 2nd run makes the discovery process less efficient imo. Elden ring might not have the replayable value, but the first run itself was a solid 150+ hr experience, which is great
@@Rah_Kyrillos same homie lol I kinda regret doing all the quest lines in one play through, would’ve been neat to do a couple on on each ng+ cycle but still was an amazing experience
Im currently new game + 3, 290 hours in and still finding new stuff even though the map was fully unlocked lol, i was finally able to get the the area of the map where the moonlight altar was, i was always frustrated about not being able to access that place, finally did the ranni quest and discovered it
It feel so good that Elden Ring was the first game ever that I achieved platinum, it was a joy to go through the game with a diff build and just have fun going through it again
Make sure to collect all Smithing-Stones and buy at least 20 stones of each up. For example buy 20 Somber Smithing Stones from 1 through to 9 so that when you start NG+ you’ll be able to upgrade any new weapons you find without ever needing to farm or look for upgrade materials
you need 12 of each stone level to reach max level on a regular weapon. so you should have an extra 24 of each if you want to upgrade 2 regular weapons.
For anyone wandering, you don't have to beat final boss for number 9 farm, you just won't have sword to make t easier . Also there is a bird across gap from grace site that you can shoot and you will get 11k runes for shooting it once . It will Agro and run off clif
The bird farm is less runes, but still great. I beat Radahn early in the game and used his weapon to farm those dudes down the hill. Two hits and they’re all dead
I like to play to difficulty cap and then coop with friends so the bosses are super tanky. It's pretty hilarious. The game has a lot of weapons & spells so it gives you tons to change and do different playthroughs. I did a banished Knight playthrough using only banished Knight armor & weapons and it was very fun.
@@Devin7Eleven I'd suggest grabbing the silver scarab talisman and maybe respec and put everything into arcane to boost item discovery ( also use fowl foot if needed ). My rng is great sometimes and sometimes its absolutely terrible. Good luck on your farming.
Weapon Art of Starscourge Greatswords is the second best for number 9. Stand between all the sitting enemies and do the double weapon art where you draw them in and slam the swords down to get around 25-30k runes. Not as good as sacred relic but still very reliable
Great video! Some things still surprized me 1st time starting NG+. Bell bearings for Smithing stones and Glowewarts carry over now (since patch 1.05) as they should. But things like pre-bought inventory (0 quantity) at vendors (Cookbooks, Notes), empty chests (Memory stone ones) and such. All emotes stay, including ones from Ensha and Patches and Melina, so nothing happens when they supposed to give you one. A bit messy, but playable. I have an arcane Mohg's spear build and all items including smithing stones drop extremely often (for example 1 smithing stone per 2 finger-creeper in Carria mansion).
the game is indeed great, but they recycled much of the work done in their previous title (combat, assets, animation), also the Publisher and co-developer Bandai Namco has over 18000 employees to assist development. Amazing experience i had with Elden Ring!
@@ulrichleukam1068 recycled combat is legit just the dark souls playstyle. Not to be rude but what did you expect, them to suddenly change to a final fantasy turn based combat?
@@ulrichleukam1068 Tell me... what developer DOESN'T reuse assets and animations. Do you rebuild your desk and chair everytime you go to work? It's foundationary. Also, Bandai Namco was the PUBLISHER, not a "co-developer". Even if they wanted to help in development, Miyazaki wouldn't allow it.
That last rune farm, if you look to the left you will see a bird down below. Shoot it with an arrow and it will fall off and give you 10,000 runes every time
The best way to approach remembrances for full item usage is to spend the remembrance for an available physical weapon first duplicate for the secondary physical weapon if it exists and then prioritize remembrance spells. That way you can powerstance weapons and retain spells.
rune farm also works with a leveled radahns greatswords u just use the ash of war and it draws in all the frogs and the slam finishes them hella good when paired with shooting the bird, and u can do it all mid game
I got lucky with elden beast. I summoned a naked guy wearing a pot on his head and one on each hand. Dude proceeded to 5 hit the beast, called me beautiful, and dipped.
Might want to fact check the tips since some of them haven't been correct for weeks. IE. Erdtree greatshield got fixed like 3 weeks ago and Alexander's innards got an use in the same patch.
1: put the controller down 2: go out side 3: get a drink 4: get some hot pockets 5: get some sleep 6: kiss a random stranger 7: shower 8: check your mail 9: watch tv 10: play the game
Anyone caught on to the fact that a weapon enchantment either from encantation or grease, carries over to any damage done from that weapon. For example using thunderstorm ashe of war, if your weapon gets buffed with blackfame then the blackflame damage increase and damage overtime effect will carry over to the thunderstorm attack. Also works with flame of redmanes. Only downside is you have to take a reduced standard AR as a result of changing the affinity to something that can be enchanted, ie keen, heavy, standard even. Pretty cool way to switch up weapons after being carried through the bosses with special weapons. Making normal weapons crazy op.
You can get to that Palace Ledge Approach farm spot early and just kill them over and over again with whatever you got. Lansseaxs Glaive is really good for killing some and agro them for AOE attacks. Frost lightning spear is good too. Once you get mohgs spear you can wipe out the ones closest to you in a few moves. THEN you get golden order sword and MAX farm
Another fun thing to do is Start a new game+ and cosplay as a favorite boss throughout the game. For example, using Radahns armor and collosal swords. Or play as Mohg with his spear and blood flame spells.
You can get to the Rune farm earlier, after defeating Margit/Godrick, speak to Varre (he'll be gone and leave a message) then head to Rose Church in Liurna and continue his quest. Once done you get a medallion that teleports you to the palace.
You can get there earlier, but you can't get the sword they were using to utterly wreck the mobs in seconds till the end. It takes longer if you use other stuff typically.
@@BitterBonez94 I tried to last night. I have beaten Radahn, Renalla and Godrick. I've cleared most of the capital as well... the 'Use' button was greyed out I'll update you if I find anything out
Don't forget to get all the walking mausoleums before you enter NG as well. Even if you have all the boss items those boss souls give a lot of runes when popped.
Alexander’s innards have been put to use in the 1.03 update that added a NPC. Its another Jar in Jarburg and you’ll need it for that, definitely worth looking into…
On NG+ once you turned in all the bell bearings on your 1st play through you can actually purchase Smithing Stones 1-8, Somber Stones 1-9 along with Grave and Ghost Glovert 1-9
THE 11th AND MOST IMPORTANT THING, make sure to farm your runes to get all the weapons you’ve been curious about to 20+ so you can see which one you’d like for the future and get the second one on NG + not just the legendaries
Make sure to have an end game save file with all great runes activated. I’m sure the DLC will be hidden behind end game. So if you have started a new game. U might have to play through it to some point before you can play dlc
After the endgame you can easily break the game. Beating the game for the first time took me 85hs (all while doing side shit too), my second playthrough (rushing to get the different endings) took me 2 to 3hs
@@sengiko true. But you want to be ready for DLC. You don’t want to have to play other parts that you played already. I would be kind of upset. I know bloodborne dlc was hidden behind some end game stuff
That rune farm tips is extremely useful to do before going into NG+ to stock up on any rune arcs you haven't bought and to get ass loads of upgrade mats
To fully wipe the mobs out on the ledge in one swipe your damage should be 2021 or roughly around that number( maybe one mob will be left in the back depending on angle) suggest getting the raise holy damage talisman and putting on a marika seal or radagon talisman to get that little damage u might need if you don’t want to fully upgrade the sword itself. Another tip when I personally grind on the ledge I turn my hud off and just do it however many times I find watching the rune number go up makes it harder not to spend faster. 😂
Getting platinum in Elden Ring is actually very doable to be honest My playtime was around 130 hours by the time i got platinum (ps. I save scummed the ending)
took me about 150. then respecced, started a new game and finished in like 20 hours. im planning to keep doing this until i run out of builds to play or it gets too difficult, whatever happens first lol
You can also do the rune farm with radahn’s swords & their ash of war, although it is slightly slower as it won’t catch every enemy. But it is possible to do much earlier than endgame
As for the farming runes, avg 35000 with 20% bonus runes in 1st run. avg 55000 (around 65000 top) in 2nd run and avg 75000 in 3rd run. However, you can get 90000 runes if you can hit all of them in 3rd run. Stand at the middle top of the rock on the ground and aim to N before hitting. I got 90000 runes most of the times. over 110000 runes in 4th run. extra almost 25000 runes per new game plus. Make sure to level up your Faith which increase the hit point and also equip holy boost equipment. Even a giant bird will give you 26000 runes in 3rd run.
There's a new one where you jump up the wall next to bird one and run off back of mountain and jjst keep swinging for about 3 minutes. I get about 200k everytime sometimes more
For the rune farm spot that they mentioned there are 2 spots you can run to in the middle of all the enemies with rodahns greatsworfs equipped , use the art of war on the weapon and youll clear all the enemies and get 30k runes like they said. It takes roughly 30s longer but i mean hey you can start this rune farm waaaay earlier then beating the game just wont be as effective.
True. I forget if i got the weapon from the last boss, which def seems to be one of, if not the fastest way to farm in that location, but its def not required. And can be done way earlier. I use mohgwyns spear ability and it wipes the groups out there pretty quick. And if you have a bow with a good reach you can shoot the bird enemy across the way that makes him jump off the cliff pretty quick too and you get a big chunk of runes from him. Which i think got me more runes quicker.
You can also use a bow and shoot at the giant bird enemy on the other side of the map. If you shoot it from the right spot (which is close to the grace), it will run towards you and fall off. Just rest at the grace to reset it and do it all over again. Combine that with the Golden Scarab talisman and Gold-Pickled Fowl Foot to get extra runes
there's another way to get thousands of runes in the blood area, if you climb the cliff beside the palace approach ledge road grace, and jump off where the shadow and the light meet (ik it's a weird way to put it), you just spam your attack and it thinks you killed everything in the area and you can just teleport back to the grace. it's really nice if you also have the gold scarab too. idk if a lot of people already know about this, but i just wanted to share in case anyone didn't know.
That's too slow, I did every method in the game, the one where you farm frogs is fastest, takes 25seconds to get 120k runes a run, whilst climbing, jumping off the cliff and swinging your weapon for a minute to get 180k runes is slower, frogs r way faster on longer stages
FYI you can duplicate ur boss rewards by entering those huge walking buildings around the map. Just keep attacking the things on each leg and they will lower so u can enter.
@@danielstewart4713 nah, some mausoleums just dont allow you to copy any boss souls. You can spend a remembrance, even eat it - go to the mausoleum and get a new one and eat that too lol
If you rush right next to malenia after entering the mist she won’t attack you unless you attack so you can use a poison incantation to cheese her first phase completely saving your summon for her second phase. She does not fight back if you use the poison incantation but she will if you use regular attacks. It takes a lot of time and sometimes she does attack right away for some reason. If that happens just restart the boss fight.
Why try to cheat, when the fun and rewarding part its beating her the right way, just how the developers intended its beyond me. You buy a game and then cheat and miss the fun of it, now that stupid in my book
@@gheorghenegreanu8409 Obviously he didn't find Malenia fun. The best way to play a game is however you enjoy playing it. People always have to tell you their opinions... Look at me, I'm doing it right now.
Faith/STR build is so OP in this game. Started my first playthrough as a STR user and the moment I started getting offensive spells I realized how much stronger they were. Now on ny first character it’s basically always miracle casting
If anyone's trying to do heretical rise and having a little trouble trying to cross it with just rainbow stones, u can use the grafted dragon to show the path farther and wider then just the glow stones
Personally, I wasted arrows (and runes!) on that dangerous invisible path. I just carefully followed and walked on its barely visible "clouds" (on an ancient 720p hdtv too)!
For melenia my mimic tear held the rivers of blood +10 and I held moghs spear +9. Blood loss from the mimic + blood loss from the spear killed her first phase in like 20 seconds, same with her 2nd phase
This. Found out the Mimic Tear is not effected by Scarlet Rot. I had My mimic equipped with Mohgs Spear +10. In her second phase my mimic Tear would straight up charge Melenia while she was doing the Scarlet Aeonia attack and use Mohgs Spear Special on her while she was recovering. When the coast was clear I charged at her with my RoB +10 and decimated Melenia.
@@haterreplicator4868 I swear my mimic tear was effected by scarlet rot, that’s why I used black knife tiche- the only status effect she can get is frostbite
You wanna fit in so bad don't you lmao wow guess what? Just take a wild guess? I bet you can guess. can't stop don't stop you looked up a guide on how to get each weapon and how to complete each quest so you essentially didn't beat anything. Guaranteed if there wasn't a TH-cam or guide you wouldn't of even of bought the game now go crawl back and thank the man who beat them games for you
You can make the farming method slightly faster if you use bloodhounds step before and after using the sacred relic sword. If you don't have the sacred relic sword you can also do the farming strat where you shoot the bird to make him run off the cliff. Remember to use golden scarab. You also get slightly more runes in ng+
You can also just fast travel back to the site of grace and then you instantly appear there facing the direction you need to go. The only time this is not good to do is if your using a golden foot because it gets rid of the buff when fast traveling for some reason.
If you are having problems with Malenia, here is what i did to beat her in four tries. Number one, I have the Rivers of Blood+10 sword. This sword is ridiculously powerful. And while you cannot add any ash’s of war unto it, it’s own special technique works just as well. The sword actually causes Malenia to get stung briefly by the special move combo. But of course, even with a +10 sword, fighting Malenia one on one is a strategy I do not recommend anyone to do. She is simply too powerful and only needs to get lucky once to one shot you. Upgrade your Mimic Tear Ashes to +10. This Mimic is really powerful and does basically the same amount of damage as you do. But if you really want to win, before summoning your mimic, place the Shabriri’s Woe as one of your talisman. Once you summon the mimic, remove it quickly and add whatever as your talisman. The Shabriri’s Woe makes it so enemies/boss goes after you and increases aggression. Even if you remove it, your summon will still have it and enemies will attack your mimic instead of you. But bosses can still go after you if too close, so watch out. Lastly if your using any other sword, i do not recommend using any other sword that is not +10 or higher, and do not recommend using greatswords without add-on’s that add blood buildup, cold buildup, or poison buildup.
@@Tripod9648 actually less then you would think, I died around maybe around 16 times fighting Melina untill I finally got her moveset down, I had no points into mind, dexterity, faith and arcane. Only vigor, endurance and STRENGTH BABY. I SLAYED EVERY BOSS WITH THIS GREAT SWORD
I used the grafted dragon for most of my first playthrough, the weapon art sucks because its too slow but otherwise its pretty good with a strength build.
I highly recommend just doing a save game backup if you're going for the platinum so you can get all 3 endings very quickly. It's not hard to get them normally (assuming you did Ranni's questline for her ending), but it's just time consuming to play through the entire game again, and you already proved you could do it, so it's not like you're skipping content or something. If you have PS+, it's easy: Just turn off auto updates for the cloud save and make a manual cloud save right before you go into the Erdtree. Make sure you haven't done the requirement for the frenzied flame ending when you make your save, since that cuts off the other endings. Then go in, beat the final boss, get whatever ending you want, and then download your manual cloud save, replacing your local save. Then you can load up your game, beat the final boss again and get another ending, and then do it one more time for the third. It doesn't matter what order you do them after you make your save, since you'll be overwriting your current game, so you can do the frenzied flame ending first or second if you want another ending to be your personal "canonical" ending (even though I don't think it matters which ending you do when you start NG+, but just in case you care).
Wait so I went to the erdtree im tryna figure out how to burn the thorns. Thought it had sum to do w the fire giant so I killed him and still couldn't. So i should have a manual save before I go into the erdtree?
@@GunnyPA Just saw this question. It's right before you actually go inside the tree. You're still a little before that part. But you'll know it when you get to it. Just save before you actually go inside.
@gameranx Thank for this. I am currently LV271, beat the Elden Beast and still doing all available quests on my first playthrough (no NG+). So many things to do in this masterpiece! 🙌
How long did you grind for that lol ? I'm 191 with 157 hours can't imagine how many souls it takes to level up then. Just started new game + cause I was bored. I also hate farming souls because Ivr literally done it for years in other souls games.
I was 243 when beat the game and 246 when started ng+ and had been playing several hundreds hours. Guess my assassins creed play throughs got me used to the grinding and so had it all before ending. This was my first soulsborne game and i love it.
usually no matter how much I love the game it feels like a chore to do a ng+ or new run, but I've beaten this game like 5 times at this point. there's just always something to bring you back
Just a quick tip you can actually get to the mogwhyn palace rune farm very early but your probably gonna wanna start using it once you level 50+ before that use the boulder rune farm to level to 50
You can get platinum/all achievements for the endings using cloud save as long as you’ve completed all of the requirements ahead of time. Keeps you from having to do 3 play throughs unless of course you have a spare couple hundred hours and want to. Only truly missable seems to be the armaments.
You don't need a spare few hundred hours to get the other endings. From start to finish, I beat the ng+ cycle in about 7 hours. You don't need to explore very much the second time through.
10. Keep playing the game 9. Keep playing the game 8. Keep playing the game 7. Keep playing the game 6. Keep playing the game 5. Keep playing the game 4. Keep playing the game 3. Keep playing the game 2. Keep playing the game 1. Keep playing the game
My personal way to cross the invisible brige is the following, much easier than shiny stones or arrows Hoarfrost Stomp Covers a huge area and shows you all the edges and lengthes of the bridge
The great feeling of achievement after completing each boss on your own is awesome..took me maybe 40 tries or more on Melania but it felt good once I completed it
1:39 There is another rune farming trick at that location that only requires a bow but you only collect around 13k runes a shot. If you look over the ledge by that grace point you will see one of those giant mutant birds. If you hit it with a single arrow it will aggro and run right off the ledge. Rinse and repeat. Its a great farm for lower level players.
I haven't beaten the game (still need to finish Mountaintops of the Giants, Consecrated Snowfields and Ephrael Brace......and haven't started Farum Azula or Leyndell Ashen Capital). Honestly I don't think I'm good enough to do it, but anyway. One thing you can do before you beat the game, or after if you want, is to farming for specific pieces of armor or weapons you think look great together. Upgrade that weapon and have fun at farming sites, and taking photos of your new "drip" :D
Kinda wish he mentioned something about the multiplayer. Feel like peeps are a little bit too intimidated by it. Definitely worth trying out after you’ve gotten a hold of the game. Such fun and unique encounters
The rune farm spot is better used for shooting the bird across the gulf from that very site of grace as it’s about 11000 per 10 seconds if you get it down. Super easy to do and doesn’t need game completion to beat.
Play it till bosses become pushovers just like what longtime players do in ds3 you play the game till the bosses don't hinder you or make you fear them
For new guys if you have the rune scarab and use the golden pickle foot you can get about 100k-100k+ with the relic sword at the entrance to mogwyns palace it’s easy to get 1 mill ruins In about 10-15 minutes depending on how fast you do it
I've been going through all areas and fighting all the bosses in my 1st playthrough. I'm plenty leveled up and could beat it now but I love the exploring in general so am in no rush.
You don’t have to beat the game to so the tune farm trick. You can do it anytime. You can use hoar frost stomp or start scourge swords gravity special or other stuff.
i beat the game the 1st time by playing on Hard Mode, i was using both Radagon and Marika's Soreseal becase combine it's like 40 levels of stats, but they lower so much your defense that anything kills you in 1~2 hits. Now i have a build without those talismans and the game kinda feels "easy" because i dont die anymore in just 1~2 hits. Lol. I'm on NG+4
There are so many good weapons. Play again the whole game with different builds . I am on my 5th playthrough (Greatsword, Blasphemous Blade, rivers , bow only ) done . Fist only run is currently going on. It's so much fun
It's crazy how people are already on their 8th or whatever playthrough. I've been playing since a week after release and I still haven't even beaten the game. Mad props to you guys.
@@tasmanianscallop435 well to be fair, my first playthrough took me 80 somethin hours and i did 2 more playthroughs the NEXT DAY only a few hours each lol. Its really easy to beat on ng+ when you know who the main bosses are.
It is totally possible to get the Platinum in 1 play through, you just need to make a save before touching the skull, back the save up, either online or on USB, choose 1 ending, then put the save back, and repeat the process for the other 3 endings. If you want to watch them all, or just do the 2 trophy ones.
I had to summon for Malenia and Mohg, both before reaching the final boss. Mohg was more of a challenge because three people can GANK Malenia so easily lol.
A different build changes EVERYTHING. I had to do a second playthrough to get platinum in PS and damn, I had to change build various times for the final boss also. Man what a game and what a journey. I don't know how to feel after so much grind, suffering and adrenaline rushes. I did all shardbearers in both runs and man, Malenia, Maliketh and Mohg really did push me near giving up in this second one
@@FlyfishermanMike those items, which I have, don't really do shit for me xddd I don't like parrying so basically Malikeths item was useless and the Mohg shackle was also useless cause I had the teardrop from Eleonora and basically does the same thing (maybe interrupts healing he does) but anyways, not much a difference
Idk what I did to mess up Alexander's quest but there was a dragon instead of him at farum azula. I started NG+ since then and I'm primarily focused on his quest now lol, along with milicent since I didn't get either of her 2 really insane tailsman.
the rune farm, you can get like 11k by aggroing the bird across the way :) also side note placi boss has 3 heads but is battle worn so he is missing a head
At the Mohgwyn Palace rune farm, you don't need to run all the way back to the grace site, you can just open the map and press Y/Triangle and it will auto select the nearest grace site and you can just warp back; it's a lot faster that way.
I got the platinum in one play through. You just have to make back up saves after you beat the last boss, to see each of the endings one after the other.

UPDATE: The Bell bearing carry over now.
The rune farm is also very helpful so you can purchase a ton of Smithing Stone and Somber Smithing Stone after giving the bell bearings to the twin Husks. The bell bearings don't carry over but anything in your inventory does. So if you have 100 of each smithing Stone, you're set for any new weapon you might find.
Big brain
80% of my weapons are +24 or +9. Playing around with different weapons/builds for pvp before starting ng+
And if you don't need the Stones you can sell them to get runes for whatever you want to do with it. It's like storing runes that won't disappear if you die.
I wish this came out last night I literally just started journey 2
This comment needs more attention. I didnt know the bells wont carry over so i saw myself rushing trough the second run just to get all smithing bells again with a mostly boring build :(
I got lucky with Malenia. I caught her in a critical just before she went into her second phase cutscene... And she never regained all her health. So, I killed her second form in 1 hit.
that good and ...bad at the same time ! her second phase was phenomenal
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck thats crazy. Her second phase is easier but simultaneously worse lmfao idk how else to describe it
@@yungmeanmug She has less wombo combo and sword attacks but uses her scarlet rot attacks more which are easier to deal with but Rot is a bitch so thats probably why.

I think it's pretty important that you pick up all the ancient dragon stones and larval tears before NG+
Where can I find all of the larvar tears?
You can google it and there are also TH-cam videos, 8 of them are in nokron and nokstella, I think 3 in liurnia, at least 1 in limgrave, Caelid, mountaintop of the giants and cosecrated snowfields each
For the invisible bridges in the game (either in Mountaintops of the Giant or in the dungeon leading to Haligtree), an easy way to cross it is to use Hoarfrost Stomp, it will reveal a huge area in front of you.

Make sure you guys use every walking mausoleum to duplicate any remembrances you want instead of going through it again in ng+. There’s only 7 but you get an extra remembrance and don’t worry if you already used it you can still duplicate it which is handy especially for the tougher bosses like Malenia
You should note that for every journey increase the runes rewarded increases so at the moghwyn farm spot at journey 1 one enemy reward about 2500 with gold scarab. On journey 2 they give 5 k and on 3rd 7500. Very important to know if you plan on power leveling
oh damn there going to be giving me 7500 each one oh this is gonna be nice when grinding
@@beauboyett8687 from what i can tell each journey up increase the runes gained from every enemy by the original amount on the first playthrough. So like the giant white dragon gives 75/150/225 k and so on
For the farming spot ,you can also use a bow and shoot at the giant bird enemy on the other side of the map.
If you shoot it from the right spot (which is close to the grace), it will run towards you and fall off.
Just rest at the grace to reset it and do it all over again.
If you get the angle and timing right, you can shoot it and run to the grace to rest. By the time you rest at the grace, it will usually have time to fall down and die and you get your runes as your character is sitting down
Combine that with the Golden Scarab talisman and Gold-Pickled Fowl Foot to get extra runes

edited new comment - Now that I believe almost everyone finished Elden Ring, I hope Elden Ring will have multiple updates (like how p 1.0.3 introduces Jar Burn/small Jar kid)
I hope later updates will
- Explain the role of the tall lady in north church
- Return of Rya (the snake lady) (because she's so cute)
- Miquela
- Godwyn
- Kid Jar return stronger as Alexander or better
- And all cut contents returned back (the dream drink, mimic quest, varre burning face or something)
previous comment - if anyone stuck at Malenia, USE Radahn's weapon fully upgrade along with your mimic, it sometimes cancelled out her attack.
And phase 2, runaway from her AOE then continue spamming Star cry skills, she will mostly locked out of her action and always falls flat.
There's a reason they keep mentioning how Malenia and Radahn always ended in draw.
Very correct! You can find a note from one of the nomadic merchants that explains if an enemy is in the air, a gravity skill that pulls, will pull them to the ground. For malrnia I believe it depends on the gravitas you're using (Alabaster lords sword, the blue white one, Radahns, or even the spell that shoots the cluster of blackholes to suck in the enemy)
That’s cool man thanks for sharing! I like how the great fight they had actually helps with fighting her lmao
You can also use rivers of blood, with mimic tear and I beat her in 3 tries.
You sir, are my hero!
I don’t like using the mimic cause it makes the game easy
Did you know that the little jellyfish you summon has a name. It’s called Amelia or something like that. This helps explain why a jellyfish is looking for it’s sister, as her sister is also a jellyfish.
Her name is Aurellia and if you go down from somwhere near the spot with the other jellyfish you can find a gravestone telling you about how they died before seeing the stars
If you run across the Jellyfish, she will talk about how she's looking for her sister and wants to see the stars or something.

Make sure to collect all Smithing-Stones and buy at least 20 stones of each up. For example buy 20 Somber Smithing Stones from 1 through to 9 so that when you start NG+ you’ll be able to upgrade any new weapons you find without ever needing to farm or look for upgrade materials
Just max that shit out😂
you need 12 of each stone level to reach max level on a regular weapon. so you should have an extra 24 of each if you want to upgrade 2 regular weapons.

Great video! Some things still surprized me 1st time starting NG+. Bell bearings for Smithing stones and Glowewarts carry over now (since patch 1.05) as they should. But things like pre-bought inventory (0 quantity) at vendors (Cookbooks, Notes), empty chests (Memory stone ones) and such. All emotes stay, including ones from Ensha and Patches and Melina, so nothing happens when they supposed to give you one. A bit messy, but playable. I have an arcane Mohg's spear build and all items including smithing stones drop extremely often (for example 1 smithing stone per 2 finger-creeper in Carria mansion).
This game is indeed huge and with big attention to detail, can't believe they've made in such a short amount of time.

The best way to approach remembrances for full item usage is to spend the remembrance for an available physical weapon first duplicate for the secondary physical weapon if it exists and then prioritize remembrance spells. That way you can powerstance weapons and retain spells.

Done. what next?
Anyone caught on to the fact that a weapon enchantment either from encantation or grease, carries over to any damage done from that weapon. For example using thunderstorm ashe of war, if your weapon gets buffed with blackfame then the blackflame damage increase and damage overtime effect will carry over to the thunderstorm attack. Also works with flame of redmanes. Only downside is you have to take a reduced standard AR as a result of changing the affinity to something that can be enchanted, ie keen, heavy, standard even. Pretty cool way to switch up weapons after being carried through the bosses with special weapons. Making normal weapons crazy op.
You can get to that Palace Ledge Approach farm spot early and just kill them over and over again with whatever you got. Lansseaxs Glaive is really good for killing some and agro them for AOE attacks. Frost lightning spear is good too. Once you get mohgs spear you can wipe out the ones closest to you in a few moves. THEN you get golden order sword and MAX farm
Another fun thing to do is Start a new game+ and cosplay as a favorite boss throughout the game. For example, using Radahns armor and collosal swords. Or play as Mohg with his spear and blood flame spells.
You can get to the Rune farm earlier, after defeating Margit/Godrick, speak to Varre (he'll be gone and leave a message) then head to Rose Church in Liurna and continue his quest. Once done you get a medallion that teleports you to the palace.
You can get there earlier, but you can't get the sword they were using to utterly wreck the mobs in seconds till the end. It takes longer if you use other stuff typically.

Don't forget to get all the walking mausoleums before you enter NG as well. Even if you have all the boss items those boss souls give a lot of runes when popped.
Alexander’s innards have been put to use in the 1.03 update that added a NPC. Its another Jar in Jarburg and you’ll need it for that, definitely worth looking into…
Alexander's quest continues after you defeat him. Talk to his nephew in the Jar village and give him the innards.
On NG+ once you turned in all the bell bearings on your 1st play through you can actually purchase Smithing Stones 1-8, Somber Stones 1-9 along with Grave and Ghost Glovert 1-9
THE 11th AND MOST IMPORTANT THING, make sure to farm your runes to get all the weapons you’ve been curious about to 20+ so you can see which one you’d like for the future and get the second one on NG + not just the legendaries
dude this is such a good hack
What does it matter if you get the same weapon twice?
10:24 you can now give Alexander's innards to Jarbairn in jarburg and he'll give you a talisman, this was added later in the game.
Make sure to have an end game save file with all great runes activated. I’m sure the DLC will be hidden behind end game. So if you have started a new game. U might have to play through it to some point before you can play dlc
After the endgame you can easily break the game. Beating the game for the first time took me 85hs (all while doing side shit too), my second playthrough (rushing to get the different endings) took me 2 to 3hs
Is there any way to keep an old save file while starting ng+ on it?
@@sengiko true. But you want to be ready for DLC. You don’t want to have to play other parts that you played already. I would be kind of upset. I know bloodborne dlc was hidden behind some end game stuff
@@unusuallyodd3349 probably not. I’m sure dlc will have a release date to it, so players will have time to get back to a certain point.
How do you keep a save file? Is this just for PC players?
That rune farm tips is extremely useful to do before going into NG+ to stock up on any rune arcs you haven't bought and to get ass loads of upgrade mats
To fully wipe the mobs out on the ledge in one swipe your damage should be 2021 or roughly around that number( maybe one mob will be left in the back depending on angle) suggest getting the raise holy damage talisman and putting on a marika seal or radagon talisman to get that little damage u might need if you don’t want to fully upgrade the sword itself.
Another tip when I personally grind on the ledge I turn my hud off and just do it however many times I find watching the rune number go up makes it harder not to spend faster. 😂
Getting platinum in Elden Ring is actually very doable to be honest
My playtime was around 130 hours by the time i got platinum (ps. I save scummed the ending)
I platinum In 120 and didn't save scum
Completely agree! i did it in 90ish hours without save scumming and damn near 100% my first playthrough 😳
Same as you . Used the cloud savings on PS5 to get all 3 endings.
Now I am wondering if I should do a NG+ now or wait until DLC is available
At 150 hrs and I’m still not done with my first play through… have to check every nook and cranny!
took me about 150. then respecced, started a new game and finished in like 20 hours. im planning to keep doing this until i run out of builds to play or it gets too difficult, whatever happens first lol
You can also do the rune farm with radahn’s swords & their ash of war, although it is slightly slower as it won’t catch every enemy. But it is possible to do much earlier than endgame
As for the farming runes, avg 35000 with 20% bonus runes in 1st run. avg 55000 (around 65000 top) in 2nd run and avg 75000 in 3rd run. However, you can get 90000 runes if you can hit all of them in 3rd run. Stand at the middle top of the rock on the ground and aim to N before hitting. I got 90000 runes most of the times. over 110000 runes in 4th run. extra almost 25000 runes per new game plus. Make sure to level up your Faith which increase the hit point and also equip holy boost equipment.
Even a giant bird will give you 26000 runes in 3rd run.
There's a new one where you jump up the wall next to bird one and run off back of mountain and jjst keep swinging for about 3 minutes. I get about 200k everytime sometimes more
@@siegedoyle slower than this method.
For the rune farm spot that they mentioned there are 2 spots you can run to in the middle of all the enemies with rodahns greatsworfs equipped , use the art of war on the weapon and youll clear all the enemies and get 30k runes like they said. It takes roughly 30s longer but i mean hey you can start this rune farm waaaay earlier then beating the game just wont be as effective.
True. I forget if i got the weapon from the last boss, which def seems to be one of, if not the fastest way to farm in that location, but its def not required. And can be done way earlier. I use mohgwyns spear ability and it wipes the groups out there pretty quick. And if you have a bow with a good reach you can shoot the bird enemy across the way that makes him jump off the cliff pretty quick too and you get a big chunk of runes from him. Which i think got me more runes quicker.
Ruins Greatsword's weapon art also helps out a lot with clearing those enemies.
Sacred relic sword works well too
I use blasphemous Blade. It takes a little work but its still faster than farming the bird
You can also use a bow and shoot at the giant bird enemy on the other side of the map.
If you shoot it from the right spot (which is close to the grace), it will run towards you and fall off.
Just rest at the grace to reset it and do it all over again.
Combine that with the Golden Scarab talisman and Gold-Pickled Fowl Foot to get extra runes
It's a souls game after you finish the game you finish it again. Then you finish it again. Then you finish it again
there's another way to get thousands of runes in the blood area, if you climb the cliff beside the palace approach ledge road grace, and jump off where the shadow and the light meet (ik it's a weird way to put it), you just spam your attack and it thinks you killed everything in the area and you can just teleport back to the grace. it's really nice if you also have the gold scarab too. idk if a lot of people already know about this, but i just wanted to share in case anyone didn't know.
That's too slow, I did every method in the game, the one where you farm frogs is fastest, takes 25seconds to get 120k runes a run, whilst climbing, jumping off the cliff and swinging your weapon for a minute to get 180k runes is slower, frogs r way faster on longer stages
FYI you can duplicate ur boss rewards by entering those huge walking buildings around the map. Just keep attacking the things on each leg and they will lower so u can enter.
You can only use Remembrance once
@@danielstewart4713 nah, some mausoleums just dont allow you to copy any boss souls. You can spend a remembrance, even eat it - go to the mausoleum and get a new one and eat that too lol
Some need to be struck up top!
Use radahn’s sword or the meteoric ore blade weapon art. They are perfect for stuff like that
If you rush right next to malenia after entering the mist she won’t attack you unless you attack so you can use a poison incantation to cheese her first phase completely saving your summon for her second phase. She does not fight back if you use the poison incantation but she will if you use regular attacks. It takes a lot of time and sometimes she does attack right away for some reason. If that happens just restart the boss fight.
Or you can... ya know... just practice and git gud.
Getting good is much faster
Why try to cheat, when the fun and rewarding part its beating her the right way, just how the developers intended its beyond me. You buy a game and then cheat and miss the fun of it, now that stupid in my book
@@gheorghenegreanu8409 Obviously he didn't find Malenia fun. The best way to play a game is however you enjoy playing it. People always have to tell you their opinions... Look at me, I'm doing it right now.
My first run was with a strength build and my god is this game so so so much easier with ranged spells.
Good to know, it was NOT easy for me
That’s my plan too. My first build was assassin/faith.
Faith/STR build is so OP in this game. Started my first playthrough as a STR user and the moment I started getting offensive spells I realized how much stronger they were. Now on ny first character it’s basically always miracle casting
If anyone's trying to do heretical rise and having a little trouble trying to cross it with just rainbow stones, u can use the grafted dragon to show the path farther and wider then just the glow stones
Personally, I wasted arrows (and runes!) on that dangerous invisible path. I just carefully followed and walked on its barely visible "clouds" (on an ancient 720p hdtv too)!
For melenia my mimic tear held the rivers of blood +10 and I held moghs spear +9. Blood loss from the mimic + blood loss from the spear killed her first phase in like 20 seconds, same with her 2nd phase
This. Found out the Mimic Tear is not effected by Scarlet Rot. I had My mimic equipped with Mohgs Spear +10. In her second phase my mimic Tear would straight up charge Melenia while she was doing the Scarlet Aeonia attack and use Mohgs Spear Special on her while she was recovering.

Guaranteed if there wasn't a TH-cam or guide you wouldn't of even of bought the game now go crawl back and thank the man who beat them games for you
You can make the farming method slightly faster if you use bloodhounds step before and after using the sacred relic sword. If you don't have the sacred relic sword you can also do the farming strat where you shoot the bird to make him run off the cliff. Remember to use golden scarab. You also get slightly more runes in ng+
You can also just fast travel back to the site of grace and then you instantly appear there facing the direction you need to go. The only time this is not good to do is if your using a golden foot because it gets rid of the buff when fast traveling for some reason.
If you are having problems with Malenia, here is what i did to beat her in four tries. Number one, I have the Rivers of Blood+10 sword. This sword is ridiculously powerful. And while you cannot add any ash’s of war unto it, it’s own special technique works just as well. The sword actually causes Malenia to get stung briefly by the special move combo. But of course, even with a +10 sword, fighting Malenia one on one is a strategy I do not recommend anyone to do. She is simply too powerful and only needs to get lucky once to one shot you. Upgrade your Mimic Tear Ashes to +10. This Mimic is really powerful and does basically the same amount of damage as you do. But if you really want to win, before summoning your mimic, place the Shabriri’s Woe as one of your talisman. Once you summon the mimic, remove it quickly and add whatever as your talisman. The Shabriri’s Woe makes it so enemies/boss goes after you and increases aggression. Even if you remove it, your summon will still have it and enemies will attack your mimic instead of you. But bosses can still go after you if too close, so watch out. Lastly if your using any other sword, i do not recommend using any other sword that is not +10 or higher, and do not recommend using greatswords without add-on’s that add blood buildup, cold buildup, or poison buildup.
all great points, I would also add that the Blasphemous Blade is a good counter to Malenia because you can spam its ash of war to retrieve some health

@@JaxkGoesHeavy ok thanks. Good for you.
I used the grafted dragon for most of my first playthrough, the weapon art sucks because its too slow but otherwise its pretty good with a strength build.
Stretching out achievements/trophies for like 4 different things. Very insightful
I highly recommend just doing a save game backup if you're going for the platinum so you can get all 3 endings very quickly. It's not hard to get them normally (assuming you did Ranni's questline for her ending), but it's just time consuming to play through the entire game again, and you already proved you could do it, so it's not like you're skipping content or something.
If you have PS+, it's easy: Just turn off auto updates for the cloud save and make a manual cloud save right before you go into the Erdtree. Make sure you haven't done the requirement for the frenzied flame ending when you make your save, since that cuts off the other endings. Then go in, beat the final boss, get whatever ending you want, and then download your manual cloud save, replacing your local save. Then you can load up your game, beat the final boss again and get another ending, and then do it one more time for the third. It doesn't matter what order you do them after you make your save, since you'll be overwriting your current game, so you can do the frenzied flame ending first or second if you want another ending to be your personal "canonical" ending (even though I don't think it matters which ending you do when you start NG+, but just in case you care).
Wait so I went to the erdtree im tryna figure out how to burn the thorns. Thought it had sum to do w the fire giant so I killed him and still couldn't. So i should have a manual save before I go into the erdtree?
@@GunnyPA Just saw this question. It's right before you actually go inside the tree. You're still a little before that part. But you'll know it when you get to it. Just save before you actually go inside.
@gameranx Thank for this. I am currently LV271, beat the Elden Beast and still doing all available quests on my first playthrough (no NG+). So many things to do in this masterpiece! 🙌
masterpiece 🤣🤣🤣
@@kalebuck3282 mad cause bad
How long did you grind for that lol ? I'm 191 with 157 hours can't imagine how many souls it takes to level up then. Just started new game + cause I was bored. I also hate farming souls because Ivr literally done it for years in other souls games.
I was 243 when beat the game and 246 when started ng+ and had been playing several hundreds hours. Guess my assassins creed play throughs got me used to the grinding and so had it all before ending. This was my first soulsborne game and i love it.
@@kalebuck3282 game of the year, yet there you are, one soul in milion who mocks the game? 😁😁
usually no matter how much I love the game it feels like a chore to do a ng+ or new run, but I've beaten this game like 5 times at this point. there's just always something to bring you back
Like what?
@@EpiKerCovers play the game and find out
@@lukelmaooooo I just finished it but what makes you come back for NG+? The build variety?
@@EpiKerCovers getting every weapon, armor, spell and talisman.
You can also use the starscourge greatsword to farm runes it's weapon art does a lot of damage to a lot of enemies
that's what I used in the moment of farming, just finished the game with ranni's ending at level 190
If you level it to +7 at least, you can farm it as early as right after beating Radahn
Just a quick tip you can actually get to the mogwhyn palace rune farm very early but your probably gonna wanna start using it once you level 50+ before that use the boulder rune farm to level to 50
You can get platinum/all achievements for the endings using cloud save as long as you’ve completed all of the requirements ahead of time. Keeps you from having to do 3 play throughs unless of course you have a spare couple hundred hours and want to. Only truly missable seems to be the armaments.
This should have more upvotes. Glad I googled it back then but cloud saves on playstation came clutch for the plat
You don't need a spare few hundred hours to get the other endings. From start to finish, I beat the ng+ cycle in about 7 hours. You don't need to explore very much the second time through.
Seriously, ive died so many times trying to beat melania solo that her boss music just reminds me of the trauma.

My personal way to cross the invisible brige is the following, much easier than shiny stones or arrows
Hoarfrost Stomp
Covers a huge area and shows you all the edges and lengthes of the bridge
The great feeling of achievement after completing each boss on your own is awesome..took me maybe 40 tries or more on Melania but it felt good once I completed it
Malenia was such a blast to fight over and over and a huge rush when I finally got her.
Next Elden Ring video: Things to do after you finish the things to do after you do some more things and finish the game.
1:39 There is another rune farming trick at that location that only requires a bow but you only collect around 13k runes a shot. If you look over the ledge by that grace point you will see one of those giant mutant birds. If you hit it with a single arrow it will aggro and run right off the ledge. Rinse and repeat.
Its a great farm for lower level players.
I haven't beaten the game (still need to finish Mountaintops of the Giants, Consecrated Snowfields and Ephrael Brace......and haven't started Farum Azula or Leyndell Ashen Capital). Honestly I don't think I'm good enough to do it, but anyway. One thing you can do before you beat the game, or after if you want, is to farming for specific pieces of armor or weapons you think look great together. Upgrade that weapon and have fun at farming sites, and taking photos of your new "drip" :D
Elden Ring will be my first platinum.
Kinda wish he mentioned something about the multiplayer. Feel like peeps are a little bit too intimidated by it. Definitely worth trying out after you’ve gotten a hold of the game. Such fun and unique encounters
Seems like half the hosts are afk farmers these days.
@@FlyfishermanMike It’s easier to find peeps once you play more and recognize where things should be
Thanks so much great video, I just finished Elden Ring today and still have a lot to do lol. I enjoyed watching 🙌🏻
The rune farm spot is better used for shooting the bird across the gulf from that very site of grace as it’s about 11000 per 10 seconds if you get it down. Super easy to do and doesn’t need game completion to beat.
Radahns greatsword are food for farming
You should definitely get all the items that there are a finite amount of like somber and normal ancient dragon smithing stones
U can get infinite somber 1-9
@@michaelchristensen929 im not talking about those tho i mean both types of ancient dragon smithing stones, somber and normal
Play it till bosses become pushovers just like what longtime players do in ds3 you play the game till the bosses don't hinder you or make you fear them
For new guys if you have the rune scarab and use the golden pickle foot you can get about 100k-100k+ with the relic sword at the entrance to mogwyns palace it’s easy to get 1 mill ruins In about 10-15 minutes depending on how fast you do it
I've been going through all areas and fighting all the bosses in my 1st playthrough. I'm plenty leveled up and could beat it now but I love the exploring in general so am in no rush.
The rune farm doesn’t require you to beat the game. The relic sword does but there are alternatives to it for the farm
Agreed, I did alot of my pre-end game farming with blasphemous blade ability, sometimes switched it up with starcaller weapon
Surprisingly I had troubles with the dragon, Milenia was done in about 10-15 tries...
The rune farm can be done early in the game you do not have to beat the game first. It's just that that weapon makes it easier and faster.
He never said it cant be done,
You don’t have to beat the game to so the tune farm trick. You can do it anytime. You can use hoar frost stomp or start scourge swords gravity special or other stuff.
i beat the game the 1st time by playing on Hard Mode, i was using both Radagon and Marika's Soreseal becase combine it's like 40 levels of stats, but they lower so much your defense that anything kills you in 1~2 hits.
Now i have a build without those talismans and the game kinda feels "easy" because i dont die anymore in just 1~2 hits. Lol.
I'm on NG+4
glass cannon builds are considered the easiest to play lol just upgrade your vigor
Both the talismans don't add a whole lot of damage taken, was your vigor low?
Radagon's specifically kinda balances itself out with the stats it gives
There are so many good weapons. Play again the whole game with different builds .
I am on my 5th playthrough (Greatsword, Blasphemous Blade, rivers , bow only ) done . Fist only run is currently going on. It's so much fun
It's crazy how people are already on their 8th or whatever playthrough. I've been playing since a week after release and I still haven't even beaten the game. Mad props to you guys.
@@WhyIsEverythingTaken I’ve only got 50 hours in my first play through and I thought I played a lot haha I guess not
It’s a meme, really. All these dudes buying houses and I’m just happy I got approved for a prepaid cell phone.
@@tasmanianscallop435 well to be fair, my first playthrough took me 80 somethin hours and i did 2 more playthroughs the NEXT DAY only a few hours each lol. Its really easy to beat on ng+ when you know who the main bosses are.
@@ActNasty5 to be fair no one asked you or cares about your progress.
The Relic Sword farm is also possible with the Radahn Greatswords' Ash of War.
It is totally possible to get the Platinum in 1 play through, you just need to make a save before touching the skull, back the save up, either online or on USB, choose 1 ending, then put the save back, and repeat the process for the other 3 endings. If you want to watch them all, or just do the 2 trophy ones.
I had to summon for Malenia and Mohg, both before reaching the final boss. Mohg was more of a challenge because three people can GANK Malenia so easily lol.
A different build changes EVERYTHING. I had to do a second playthrough to get platinum in PS and damn, I had to change build various times for the final boss also. Man what a game and what a journey. I don't know how to feel after so much grind, suffering and adrenaline rushes. I did all shardbearers in both runs and man, Malenia, Maliketh and Mohg really did push me near giving up in this second one
They're are items to help with Mohg and Maliketh. With Malenia we're just supposed to suffer.
@@FlyfishermanMike those items, which I have, don't really do shit for me xddd I don't like parrying so basically Malikeths item was useless and the Mohg shackle was also useless cause I had the teardrop from Eleonora and basically does the same thing (maybe interrupts healing he does) but anyways, not much a difference
Idk what I did to mess up Alexander's quest but there was a dragon instead of him at farum azula. I started NG+ since then and I'm primarily focused on his quest now lol, along with milicent since I didn't get either of her 2 really insane tailsman.
the rune farm, you can get like 11k by aggroing the bird across the way :)
also side note placi boss has 3 heads but is battle worn so he is missing a head
At the Mohgwyn Palace rune farm, you don't need to run all the way back to the grace site, you can just open the map and press Y/Triangle and it will auto select the nearest grace site and you can just warp back; it's a lot faster that way.
You’ll lose the gold pickled foot if you fast travel… but resting retains
It takes like 5 seconds to run back
You play it again with the realisation that you wont be able to play it like the first time
I spent my whole 1st play through being lost 😅. It was definitely nice though
For the farming part, I would suggest starting NG+, going for acces to that area asap and do it then. Will give you a lot more runes
Yeah the upscaling on rune collection in subsequent NG+'s really makes it worth your while.

Top 10 Things to do in Elden Ring after you beat it.
10: Play it again
9: Play it again
8: Play it again
7: Play it again
6-1: Play it again
Number 1 is get a life.
The rune farm can be done with other weapons BEFORE the end game. I used the Ruins Greatsword's ability.
I got the platinum in one play through. You just have to make back up saves after you beat the last boss, to see each of the endings one after the other.
Once you do everything before journey 2 believe me you literally lose any will to start journey 2
