Invaders are other Tarnished that invade Tarnished in order to kill them. There are npc invaders scattered throughout the land, but also players that invade as well.
That invader was Edgar from Castle Mourne After you help him clear out castle Mourne earlier, he finds his daughter (who gave you the letter for him) dead and starts carving out a bloody warpath looking for revenge. You just encounter him while he's on his warpath and he mistakes you for an enemy.
My jaw DROPPED when you opened your inventory and you had *several* altered commoner's circlets, most enemies in the game have a chance to drop their armour sets and weapons upon being killed and that specific headpiece is an ESPECIALLY rare drop!!! So just so you're aware at times it's worth to 'farm' enemies if you're interested on acquiring their weapons or looks!
BTW: As you probably figured out jump attacks are very good. Since this is not something you will figure out while playing the game I feel like it's fair if I mention this: Every enemy has a hidden poise bar that slowly regenerates. Depending on how you hit them the poise bar is depleted and when it's empty their stance is broken. Jump attacks, especially with dual wield, deal the most poise damage and that is what makes them even stronger. There are also items scattered around the game that buff the damage of jump attacks. One of which you already missed but I'm not gonna go into detail since that could make the run very broken and not as close to a blind experience. Maybe you'll find the other one :)
This video title: "I finally understand Elden Ring" Next title "I was wrong, the game just started" Believe me when I say, the end of your journey brings you to a new horizon of what video games could offer. When you finish this game, everything changes. Btw.. I am really glad for these videos 😢😢😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️. This serious is soo awesome.
@@arsenii_yavorskyi The first time I finished Ds3, this happened. The entire game design is souly unique to Elden Ring. It felt like I played a video game for the first time again. I played Ds3 last year btw..
Hey, Never Before, here's a suggestion: you could put a "questions to the crowd" segment at the end of your vids, to ask the community questions on things you struggle with or you really wanna know, then maybe commenters wouldn't just drop spoilers on ya! Let him have his fun, boiz!!!
It's unbelievable that in a previous video, I started getting really pissed because he wasn't saying "boat boy" when referring to the Tibia Mariner. "Skelly Boyz"... "Bent Boyz"... All of his shit is somehow hilarious to me.
Edgar was that captain of the guard at Castle Morne. You know, the guy who's daughter asked you to give him a message, then found her dead....the girl that Hyetta, the girl asking for shabriri grapes kinda looks like....oh and read the description of the shabriri grape.
remember the map you got by the gate of the academy after you went through the waygate. It will guide you on where you should go. Love the series btw keep it up 👍
One thing to notice with a few bosses in Elden ring like Adan the fire thief, is that they are just player characters with weapons and spells you've never seen before. The spell he gives you is the exploding fireball he uses, and you can get his flail in game in believe. but thats why he can heal, hes a fellow tarnished with flasks.
"Meybe il find the key here" if only i had a map. In all seriousness, fill in the missing map and look at the note you picked up outside the gate. The rest you can figure out on your own.
Elden ring tips and things: 1. If you don’t want to only rely on the bloodhound’s fang ash of war then I recommend you just put a good ash of war that can’t be spammed on the dismounter and use that in your right hand 2. Your weapons scale best with dex, but there’s this little thing called infusions. You can switch the infusions of most weapons to give them different scalings (strength, dex, int, faith, etc) and it is very strong. Your dismounter only has the standard infusion so you need to switch it 3. Never get greedy and wait everything out, take a sip or something 4. Certain enemies are weak to certain elements, the erdtree avatars and everything plant related is weak to fire (and this works for most enemies, if they use a certain element or are made of that element then they are strong against it)
So to explain invasions there are two types npc invasions that are story driven and real player invasions. The way it works is that they get summoned to your world/save to fight you. The one you experienced was an npc invasion, the guy that invaded you was edgar from castle morne which is a follow up to irina's quest. I ma not gonna explain why he invades you because it's kinda of a spoiler in the story of the game. The other posiibility is a real player invading you from their world, if you play the game offline you're not gonna be able to experience the real player invasions which i recommend because you're gonna get rolled from experienced players while this is your first playthrough in a souls game. Either way i really like your narrative in this series and i hope you keep enjoying the game. Edit: If you're interested for the lore of the game when you finish it. I recommend you to watch a channel in youtube called Vaatividya he's basically the loremaster of the souls community and you'll get all your answers about the story of the game.
wow 26 hours nice. me with me 800+ hours lol. you have a dlc as well. just lvle you endurance to 50-60 an you can wear anything you want. o god i hope you enjoy melania blade of mikila.
Invaders are a PvP mechanic (when you summon another player, you're open to be invaded. you can also invade others by using one of several multiplayer items) but the game also has NPCs invade you at specific, scripted locations. Edgar is the father of the maiden that died after castle morne btw - the narrative reason is that he went mad in his quest for revenge.
Hey to find the key to the magic school you have look around the swamp to find a island where theres a dragon that is sleeping and you have sneak around it theres the key
Yeah:D I have mine at +4 Also, I dual wield the same weapons as you:D I leveled some faith so I can use buff encantations like bloodflame blade/ lightning Also an incantation called flame grant me strength + carry a dagger with golden vow ash of war all that for extra damage and defence im rambling; sorry I just love this game too much :D Looking forward to your next vid :)
I agree with you, relying on the same attack can make the combat feel boring also dual wield jump attacks are really good too as you might have noticed
Elden Ring is a heavily multiplayer game. You should interact with those little Marika Statues (That look like little "Y"'s) as they will unlock areas for you to be summoned from or summon other players when you use multiplayer items. Invaders can be NPC invasions or other players under specific conditions.
The key can be found in the middle section of liurnia towards the left of the academy but not on the left section of land. On the map it shows a small circle to the left where it has a rock symbol on it. Theres a sleeping dragon you need to sneak past and grab the key and if you wake him up you are cooked Also on the left section of the map on the land there is a fortress called caria manor which has a boss there and also some good loot. Once you beat the boss and leave the exit you can find the blue, 4 armed lady in a tower which has a very important questline probably the most important one in the game Finally, the edgar invader you fought is the father of the irina girl that died when you went to the weeping peinsula (the south of limgrave past the bridge). You were supposed to deliver the message to her dad and he would die once you reload the map but now hes invading you. Either way he drops through 8+ halberd which is good right now but wont be once you get higher upgraded weapons Hope this helped
Minor Erdtrees are where you can fin crystal tears to alter the effects of your wondrous physick. Sit at a site of grass and you will have an option to mix wondrous physick.
Edgar the Revenger is the guy from Castle Morne way down south in Limgrave! His daughter, Irina, got killed at the end of her storyline and he swore vengeance upon the misbegotten (the creepy boys with the wings and tails).
Bloodhound fang and dismounter is what I used for the entire game and DLC. May not be best, but can be acquired early and certainly gets the job done with all enemies
tip for finding stuff in the game, the map is actually full of info but its stylized so can be hard to make out, but any ruins or any interesting markings on the map you should check out.
My first play through was 260hours and I loved every moment. My style is to take my time and explore every inch of everywhere. Each play through gets less, think my 4th was 120hours. My DLC play through was again 260hours. What I'm saying is: the game is massive. So don't rush or skimp. All the people watching know this. You can rush it, but...whats the point. Just explore and enjoy. We watch you, to remind ourselves what that first play through was like: huge, fun and exciting.
ngl love seeing the fresh perspective of of growth of knowledge, the story especially being pieced together by a new player is always fun to watch. Making some mad progress man! 💪
Since you died at the minor erdtree you probably haven't seen it, but defeating the boss grants you new ingredients for your wondrous physick. Look out for more minor erdtrees out there in the lands between. You can adjust the composition of your physick at a site of grace.
Just a quick tip, because I saw you have your flasks at +2. You can upgrade how much HP and FP your flasks regenerate by using Sacred Tears on them, found in Churches across the Lands Between. Three of them are in Weeping Peninsula, one at the beginning of Liurnia where Thops (the bald sorcerer) is sitting on his bench, and another in Limgrave at the church where you picked up the Flask of Wondrous Physic. You already have 2 out of the 5 currently available, so you should go get the other 3 as well. It helps massively. Good luck on the journey!
The erdtree avatar is one of my favorite repeat bosses, because you can get better and better at the fight even in the span of your first playthrough. It just demonstrates the best part of elden ring bosses - getting better at them and the feeling of satisfaction from feeling like you learned the fight.
I'd recommend actually reading the descriptions of items, by doing this and listening to NPC's you should ALWAYS know where to go to follow the critical path, the graces are pointing you in the direction of notable things too. You have a map in your key-items that tells you where to find the key you're looking for.
Another 10/10 video! That Flame Mace is gorgeous and pretty rare, actually a 1 or 2% drop chance, so it's pretty wild you got it on your first time killing that type of enemy. It's nothing special in combat, but in this game you can use any weapon you like as long as you keep it upgraded and learn its moves well. There's a rare variant of that Flame Monk which wields a Flame Curved Greatsword, he's only in 2 locations in the game and I farmed him for hours to get it. It's actually the worst Curved Greatsword in damage, but I used it anyway because it's beautiful and it fits perfectly with fire Ashes of War. I don't know why they make these rare weapons worst them the easy-to-find ones, I guess they take appearance into the balancing as well. 😆
One mechanic you should know about is that there are several different types of physical damage: standard, slash, pierce, and strike. You swords do slash damage, like most swords do - you can see what type of damage a weapon deals in the equipment screen, just under its name. Slash is fine for most encounters, but if you find an enemy who looks like they're made of rocks, it won't be the most effective. For them, I'd suggest you either use some form of elemental damage - Wheel Boy can hook you up with some of those - or find a backup weapon that smashes instead of slashes.
If you ever want to trx out spells, the mervhant at the start of liurnia sells a staff for sorceries, and in limgrave a small ruins to the right of the lake has a sorvery teacher in the basement! For incantations you can simply buy a seal to cast them at round table hold.
I'm sure someones mentioned it but the map fragments r visable on the dark map, they even look like the little obelisk where u actually find them. sure makes things easier
Fortunately enemies that can heal themselves can only do it once. Unless they have a mechanic that lets them heal off damaging you -- a few have that. You definitely want to kill all the silver/white dung beatles. They all have something good. That step attack can be dangerous if there's a cliff behind you! If you didn't catch all the lore in the albinauric village -- Nepheli Loux is daughter of Gideon, the guy in the office at Roundtable Hold. Gideon sent his underlings to kill all the albinaurics in the village just because he was trying to get the (half) medallion that the pot guy gave to you. Nephelli is PISSED about this. "Erudition Guide Thee" is a reference to a certain gesture. If you have that gesture, use it. There's another way to get up that tower, but there's another one where you need the gesture and there isn't another way. Those invaders are scripted into the game, but they kind of imitate the invaders you would get if you had multiplayer turned on. That invader you got at the shack (Edgar) was actually the same Edgar from Castle Mourne. He's gone a bit crazy since his daugher was killed. It's not really clear why he takes that out on YOU. But he's laid to rest now. Those singing bat ladies are creepy. But they are by far not the most creepy things in the game.
Most NPC bosses have 1 flask of crimson tears. When they try to heal a 2nd time, they'll be stuck in an animation as they notice it's empty, which can be punished nicely.
The last episode you were fighting black blade kindred if you walk past him there will be a bridge cross the bridge you will find an erd tree avatar if also walk past him you will see a pound with baby dragon and if you walk up you will find mama dragon she doesn't hit you go around her you will find a castle with a medallion after you get the medallion go behind mama dragon then two hand your blood hound fang and hit her after some time she will get bleed keep bleading her until she dies she will givwe you 60000 runes its basically free runes she doesn't atack you she just calls her baby dragons that will not be able to reach you because you are behind her
small help: those enemy camps usually have one or two really good or unique pieces of loot at them, and that one where you got the monk's flame mace is no different, try looking around the tents. that specific thing is very useful later on.
also I'm glad that you just found the haligtree secret medallion organically, i totally missed the albinauric village on my playthrough and had to look it up
Good to see you making these again. You should two hand your weapon sometimes. Its a bit faster and does more damage. If you want to use it one handed pair it with a shield and guard counter.
I’m not sure if you know but you can see the map location on your map it has a little icon kinda like an archway(also if you haven’t there is a map that shows where the key is near the academy you should be able to use your map to cross reference then)
You seem to be ready to learn about poise damage and which attacks are good to break an enemy's stance. Experiment a bit with jumping light vs. jumping heavy attacks, aswell as 1H and 2H charged heavy attacks.
I usually don't like backseating, but since you've been feeling a little lost in Liurnia (which is one of the less fun areas in the game to explore) I'll give you one small advice: you missed the map of the central lake, you probably ran past it without noticing because the grace that's right next to it has been activated, so next time try to zoom in on the map near sites of grace and see if you spot the icon that tells you where the map is. You have to zoom in because the icon of the site of grace is covering the icon if you are zoomed out and you won't see it. another little hint: after acquiring the map of the lake, check one more time the map telling you about the key you need to find
I've watched your videos since the first one and first of all, I'm lonving it! But this video and the previous got me thinking I might have missed some past entry because you really went into Liurnia, but I realized you just never found a couple of cool things back in Limgrave. I'm not going to spoil anything but you migh wanto to look for Siofra River.
To be honest, dual wield setups were heavily nerfed when the DLC came out and most people nowadays just two-hand their weapons. and Dual-CGS is not that good anyways, kinda slow. And certainly too slow to trigger the Winged Sword Insignia consistently and properly, even despite the HeavyLoad issue. But this was a good move anyways, because learning new movesets and fundamentals is always good.
Nepheli could have been summonedto help with the boss in the village of albinaurics. also, when u crossed the bridge where the magicboi shot at ya - u missed a cool sword :) My first playthrough I missed Crap loads of lore, quests and loot - on my second now with a guide open - 'lore wise' npc encountering :) I hope Ull keep making these the same way, first playthrough should be blind for sure! half video to go now...:)
Loving your playthrough, loving your humour, loving how you describe seeing and experiencing these things for the first time, these beginning parts are beyond amazing! Looking forward to your story both in Elden Ring and on your channel! I wish the best for you, you’ve certainly gotten another sub! Enjoy the game Young Tarnished 😁
invasion is pvp and somtimes pve thing if u activate invasion by summoning an online person u can be invaded by another player this for the pvp for pve you can get invaded by npc to complete a questline
Not a huge fan of the dual wielded heavy curved swords moveset personally, but you seem to be coming to grips with it and the jumping attack is good. You are missing something at the tower by the way, there are a bunch of them in game that operate functionally the same in terms of where the reward is, think back to Oridys Rise from the earlier episode. Still enjoying these, keep up the good work.
Edgar was the father of Irina, the blind girl killed by the misbegotten on the road to Castle Morne. as unbearable grief overtook Edgar, he succumbed to frenzy. now, pay attention: there's another blind maiden, you've been feeding her Shabriri Grapes. Edgar dropped a Shabriri Grape upon defeat. coincidence? 😉 without spoiling anything, I'll just say that I really, really, REALLY hope you'll see this quest to its conclusion. be sure to read item descriptions.
I had a blast in this one! Short amount of time but a lot learned. Thank you all for watching and I hope you enjoyed!!

Just a quick tip, because I saw you have your flasks at +2. You can upgrade how much HP and FP your flasks regenerate by using Sacred Tears on them, found in Churches across the Lands Between. Three of them are in Weeping Peninsula, one at the beginning of Liurnia where Thops (the bald sorcerer) is sitting on his bench, and another in Limgrave at the church where you picked up the Flask of Wondrous Physic. You already have 2 out of the 5 currently available, so you should go get the other 3 as well. It helps massively. Good luck on the journey!
I’m really enjoying this series. Fun videos man.
Loving your first foray into elden ring. Hope you find the glintstone key soon as that will progress the main story! You're really close to it!
The erdtree avatar is one of my favorite repeat bosses, because you can get better and better at the fight even in the span of your first playthrough. It just demonstrates the best part of elden ring bosses - getting better at them and the feeling of satisfaction from feeling like you learned the fight.
I'd recommend actually reading the descriptions of items, by doing this and listening to NPC's you should ALWAYS know where to go to follow the critical path, the graces are pointing you in the direction of notable things too. You have a map in your key-items that tells you where to find the key you're looking for.
the learning never stops. between pve challenges and pvp/co op the room for growth never stops
i havve over 1k hours in elden ring and i barely know shit.
Another 10/10 video!
That Flame Mace is gorgeous and pretty rare, actually a 1 or 2% drop chance, so it's pretty wild you got it on your first time killing that type of enemy.
It's nothing special in combat, but in this game you can use any weapon you like as long as you keep it upgraded and learn its moves well.
There's a rare variant of that Flame Monk which wields a Flame Curved Greatsword, he's only in 2 locations in the game and I farmed him for hours to get it. It's actually the worst Curved Greatsword in damage, but I used it anyway because it's beautiful and it fits perfectly with fire Ashes of War.
I don't know why they make these rare weapons worst them the easy-to-find ones, I guess they take appearance into the balancing as well. 😆
One mechanic you should know about is that there are several different types of physical damage: standard, slash, pierce, and strike. You swords do slash damage, like most swords do - you can see what type of damage a weapon deals in the equipment screen, just under its name. Slash is fine for most encounters, but if you find an enemy who looks like they're made of rocks, it won't be the most effective. For them, I'd suggest you either use some form of elemental damage - Wheel Boy can hook you up with some of those - or find a backup weapon that smashes instead of slashes.
If you ever want to trx out spells, the mervhant at the start of liurnia sells a staff for sorceries, and in limgrave a small ruins to the right of the lake has a sorvery teacher in the basement!
For incantations you can simply buy a seal to cast them at round table hold.
I played with a dual curved greatsword build as well and I would recommend using more jump attacks and finding something called the claw talisman.
I'm sure someones mentioned it but the map fragments r visable on the dark map, they even look like the little obelisk where u actually find them. sure makes things easier
Fortunately enemies that can heal themselves can only do it once. Unless they have a mechanic that lets them heal off damaging you -- a few have that.
You definitely want to kill all the silver/white dung beatles. They all have something good.
That step attack can be dangerous if there's a cliff behind you!
If you didn't catch all the lore in the albinauric village -- Nepheli Loux is daughter of Gideon, the guy in the office at Roundtable Hold. Gideon sent his underlings to kill all the albinaurics in the village just because he was trying to get the (half) medallion that the pot guy gave to you. Nephelli is PISSED about this.
"Erudition Guide Thee" is a reference to a certain gesture. If you have that gesture, use it. There's another way to get up that tower, but there's another one where you need the gesture and there isn't another way.
Those invaders are scripted into the game, but they kind of imitate the invaders you would get if you had multiplayer turned on. That invader you got at the shack (Edgar) was actually the same Edgar from Castle Mourne. He's gone a bit crazy since his daugher was killed. It's not really clear why he takes that out on YOU. But he's laid to rest now.
Those singing bat ladies are creepy. But they are by far not the most creepy things in the game.
by the way i don't know if you know this but endurance increases you equip load capacity
Yes I do! Many levels I have to go with that, but it’s on my list!
@@neverbeforegg Nice and good luck with the rest of Liurna
Loving it im sooooo ready to see you take on late game bosses 👊 Go forth future Elden Ring Warrior
Always a good time when i get to see your journey continue. Can't wait for the next one man.
New video🎉🎉 already looks amazing
Hell yeah! Thank you!
Most NPC bosses have 1 flask of crimson tears. When they try to heal a 2nd time, they'll be stuck in an animation as they notice it's empty, which can be punished nicely.
You might wanna check the map you picked up earlier, the one of the Meeting Place. It shows you where to go.
The Skill on a lot of weapons are pretty strong, it’s easy to catch yourself spamming a move over and over because it works. Loving the playthrough!!!
The last episode you were fighting black blade kindred if you walk past him there will be a bridge cross the bridge you will find an erd tree avatar if also walk past him you will see a pound with baby dragon and if you walk up you will find mama dragon she doesn't hit you go around her you will find a castle with a medallion after you get the medallion go behind mama dragon then two hand your blood hound fang and hit her after some time she will get bleed keep bleading her until she dies she will givwe you 60000 runes its basically free runes she doesn't atack you she just calls her baby dragons that will not be able to reach you because you are behind her
The mechanics of the Aiden fight are so clever though. He has nothing going for him except the Flame of the Fell God. Which is why he stole it.
small help: those enemy camps usually have one or two really good or unique pieces of loot at them, and that one where you got the monk's flame mace is no different, try looking around the tents. that specific thing is very useful later on.
also I'm glad that you just found the haligtree secret medallion organically, i totally missed the albinauric village on my playthrough and had to look it up
First! Already know its gonna be awesome🎉
Hell yes!!
The ash of war on the halberd is very useful! 🗡️🗡️
You should try furlcalling finger remedy at a summon sign
The true beauty of elden ring is friends
It might be worth looking more at the meeting place map you collected last episode
Good to see you making these again. You should two hand your weapon sometimes. Its a bit faster and does more damage. If you want to use it one handed pair it with a shield and guard counter.
FYI you're missing out on questlines if you don't summon the golden NPC phantoms.
I’m not sure if you know but you can see the map location on your map it has a little icon kinda like an archway(also if you haven’t there is a map that shows where the key is near the academy you should be able to use your map to cross reference then)
DUAL CURVED GREAT SWORD SUPREMACY 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
your build is starting to look like mine. i’m on NG+ and dual wielding two max level bloodhounds fangs
“ I don’t think I’ve faced any boss that possessed that ability so far”
Im sure that won’t come up again…
Another great installment in your journey to becoming the Elden Ring Warrior.
Loving this series! I too get angry when dying, but its all about learning the hard way in Elden Ring 😊
You seem to be ready to learn about poise damage and which attacks are good to break an enemy's stance. Experiment a bit with jumping light vs. jumping heavy attacks, aswell as 1H and 2H charged heavy attacks.
I usually don't like backseating, but since you've been feeling a little lost in Liurnia (which is one of the less fun areas in the game to explore) I'll give you one small advice: you missed the map of the central lake, you probably ran past it without noticing because the grace that's right next to it has been activated, so next time try to zoom in on the map near sites of grace and see if you spot the icon that tells you where the map is. You have to zoom in because the icon of the site of grace is covering the icon if you are zoomed out and you won't see it.
another little hint: after acquiring the map of the lake, check one more time the map telling you about the key you need to find
Another video so soon has me hyped
I've watched your videos since the first one and first of all, I'm lonving it! But this video and the previous got me thinking I might have missed some past entry because you really went into Liurnia, but I realized you just never found a couple of cool things back in Limgrave. I'm not going to spoil anything but you migh wanto to look for Siofra River.
To be honest, dual wield setups were heavily nerfed when the DLC came out and most people nowadays just two-hand their weapons. and Dual-CGS is not that good anyways, kinda slow. And certainly too slow to trigger the Winged Sword Insignia consistently and properly, even despite the HeavyLoad issue. But this was a good move anyways, because learning new movesets and fundamentals is always good.
Quality. Keep up the good work foul tarnished. pls.
14:20 you can jump on the wall outside an then jump on the tower
Nepheli could have been summonedto help with the boss in the village of albinaurics.
also, when u crossed the bridge where the magicboi shot at ya - u missed a cool sword :)
My first playthrough I missed Crap loads of lore, quests and loot - on my second now with a guide open - 'lore wise' npc encountering :)
I hope Ull keep making these the same way, first playthrough should be blind for sure!
half video to go now...:)
Oh nvm, you found it bro :D
Loving your playthrough, loving your humour, loving how you describe seeing and experiencing these things for the first time, these beginning parts are beyond amazing!
Looking forward to your story both in Elden Ring and on your channel! I wish the best for you, you’ve certainly gotten another sub!
Enjoy the game Young Tarnished 😁
‘nother quality upload from my favourite future elden ring warrior
This upload schedule is a lovely surprise ❤ less goooo
Oh this title is amazing, packing a bowl for this baddie
Great Video! Hint: You’re close to finding the key
Ah, the Erdtree avatar.... the most reused boss in the game (I think)
It is always a good day when you upload!
invasion is pvp and somtimes pve thing if u activate invasion by summoning an online person u can be invaded by another player this for the pvp
for pve you can get invaded by npc to complete a questline
Not a huge fan of the dual wielded heavy curved swords moveset personally, but you seem to be coming to grips with it and the jumping attack is good.
You are missing something at the tower by the way, there are a bunch of them in game that operate functionally the same in terms of where the reward is, think back to Oridys Rise from the earlier episode.
Still enjoying these, keep up the good work.
Edgar was the father of Irina, the blind girl killed by the misbegotten on the road to Castle Morne. as unbearable grief overtook Edgar, he succumbed to frenzy.
now, pay attention: there's another blind maiden, you've been feeding her Shabriri Grapes. Edgar dropped a Shabriri Grape upon defeat. coincidence? 😉
without spoiling anything, I'll just say that I really, really, REALLY hope you'll see this quest to its conclusion. be sure to read item descriptions.
