Elden Ring (PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S/One) is filled with strange, weird weapons. Here are some of our favorites. Subscribe for more: th-cam.com/users/gameranxTV?su... #eldenring
Making the urumi even weirder is the fact that it's actually a _real_ weapon. It originates from India, and is essentially a sword with a blade that's been made _very_ thin and flexible. They're very difficult to use (and you can't do that stabbing thing the urumi in Elden Ring can), you're liable to hurt yourself if you don't know what you're doing, and they're imprecise even if you _do_ know how to wield one. That said, watching an expert whip one around would be absolutely stunning. Probably why competitions between urumi wielders are still held in India to this day.
Both Chinese and Japanese folk lore mentioned similar weapon, (with no particular wielder, and it usually appear in an assassinate or murder event). Both mentioned the blade is very thin and flexible that the wielder can tie it around his waist and hide it under the belt, but when using proper technique to swing it, it can slice and dice like a normal blade.
Man, Elden Ring feels like a once in a life time event. I knew it was gonna be popular amongst the souls fans, that goes without saying, but with the continued hype almost a month after release makes this game really feel like something special. I’m sure not even From Software could have predicted how popular and widely embraced this game would be. It’s been said a lot already but I really do think this game has game of the year in the bag. I don’t see anything dethroning it, not even God of War. I say all this and yet I still haven’t bought it lol. I’m just trying to wait because I want to finish Horizon and I’m playing Bloodborne for the first time. If I got Elden now I wouldn’t finish either game and that’s just not fair to those amazing games.
Imo that’s a weird move. There’s nothing like pioneering a from game when it first releases, and while it’s still got it’s biggest playercount all locations are super active for multiplayer and invasions. You are fuckin up prioritizing it last. Play bloodborne later when you need a break.
@@kinnymane8593 good point. To be honest Bloodborne is my first souls game. I had tried it multiple times and it never clicked with me, that and I kept dying sooo much in the very first area. I wanted to like it because of the beautiful gothic, lovecraftian esthetics but alas, it was hard yo. But then David Jaffe started playing it on stream and he shared my frustration. The community revealed how to just reach the first boss then you can grind to level up and boom! I got hooked. I know Elden is a bit different, with a more slow and methodical technic to battle but either way it looks great. I just have such a backlog of games and have a bad habit of not finishing games when the new flavor of the week comes out. But I appreciate your input and you’re probably right, Bloodborne will always be there to finish later. So in my very long drawn out way of saying. Thank you? If you had advice of what class to start as what would it be?
@@drgonzo123 IMO start as a wretch for every character and don’t listen to anyone who tells you otherwise if you aren’t 100% sure you know what you want to do for your build and it won’t change later. There’s no class in the game that allows min-maxing like the wretch does, you just have a slightly harder start since you spawn in naked with only a club at level 1. But the early game is far easiest than it seems at first, and you can be ahead of the game and caught up in 30 minutes. I will explain why. First off you can respec in the game. But you can only respec down to the level you started at. Other classes start between levels 10-19 with point spreads based in their specialty. You can never go below those points. But wretch starts with 10 points in each stat while STILL being at level 1 at the start. You can get all the starting classes armor and weapons if you want later too, and if you do decide to get into the PVP scene, like the 1v1 or 2v2 duels or joining an organized fight club on discord with leaderboards, they all have meta levels. For example RL125 and RL150 are the main metas right now for PVP. So with a wretch you are at a huge advantage because you get every available point to use and even for PVE when you inevitably want to try out new builds and weapons you can take full advantage of respecs without wasted points. Of course you can overlevel and grind to just aimlessly have points in everything but where’s the fun in that? Also you have the pride of knowing you came into the world with nothing to your name but a wooden club and fucking conquered that shit. That’s my opinion.
@@drgonzo123 Also bloodborne and souls are far less forgiving than elden ring. With the open world if you get stuck you can simply just go do something else and some/most bosses can be entirely skipped and you can just come back later to get them. Some bosses stand in the way to other areas, so you can’t skip those but most are there when you are ready. There’s hundreds of bosses as well that aren’t even a part of the main storyline. You’re gonna have tons of fun, there’s so much to do and explore. I’m on NG+3 With my main PVE character and have 2 other characters grinded up for PvP. But the most fun you’ll ever have with it is right now. Since TH-camrs and the playerbase are STILL discovering brand new areas and questlines and there’s still unconfirmed secret endings. It’s a very unique experience to play a from game before everyone has everything figured out
i found it, equipped it had a laugh and used my normal shield for 20hours. later i misclicked the "skill" while showing a friend and since then it is my main shield XD
not sure why you didn't mention it, but the jellyfish sheild's ability increases all the damage you do. Physical, magical, whatever gets boosted a fair amount
it's not really a mutant ant. just giant ant variant. they exist in real life too. they got giant flat heads to seal up their tunnels as a sort of living door. i thought it was really cool that they added these different variants of ants like there are in a real colony.
@@doggo531 what you mean with 'but it's from software'? Dark Souls 1, 2, 3 and Bloodborne all had DLC. Yes you could say Sekiro didn't, but Sekiro was just a side project which also didn't had any kind of PvP
The Blasphemous blade is likely based on the Sword of Resonance from Berserk. It's basically a sword that has been covered in Behelits, which are magical items that are egg shaped, yet look like a human face . The Skullknight created the sword literally by devouring Behelits, just like the Blasphemous blade is the result of Rykard devouring countless heroes and binding them together.
The shield doesn't just turn red, it gives you a strength buff allowing you to take almost no damage while block and adding more to your damage if you use a strength build
Just an idea. Instead of a white background when you guys count down you should use a darker color. When I watch before I fall asleep I gotta look away because it’s so bright or turn my brightness all the way down when it comes then turn it back up to see the gameplay as the gameplay is always much darker then a white background during the countdown parts. I don’t expect it to be changed just because I have a hard time with it but it’s just food for thought. Maybe do a poll on how many people would prefer a darker background. I’m only commenting on it just to give you guys some feedback that’s all. Anyways great video and have a good day to everyone watching!
So when they have clips of games that aren't dark as shit, then what? Are they supposed to go through and dim all those too just so you're comfortable while doing the opposite of going to sleep?
You can download an app that takes out blue light right before you sleep so you don’t have that problem, I don’t think they need to change , just work around it.
Maybe just dont watch these in bed? Problem solved. Gonna complain about every other TH-cam channel you watch? They are not gonna do anything just so you don't have to adjust your brightness.....
@@Astraeus.. its an idea thats it. And im pretty sure half of everyone on youtube watches a quick video before going to sleep. Companys put in black themes all the time into there work like youtube, discord, ect ect. Its just feedback and sometimes feedback is good
This was my thought as well, but my impression wasn't just that he wore masks but that he's tried resurrecting them using his own living body, so they were part of his own misshapen form.
Don't miss out on Radahn's dual weapon. The Ash of War is really, really strong. I also love dragging flying and jumping enemies to the ground with it. Now, why the fuck doesn't that work on Malenia? It should. Radahn is superior. (He was holding back so hard against her, he wasn't even using the meteors. And the fight did end when he dragged her towards him. And then she lost in every way that mattered.
the blasphemous blade is actually one of the best weapons I've found, it's ash of war deals so much damage and can easily substitute for flasks when needed. It's currently considered one of the "boss melter" weapons.
@@ChristianSeraph lol 😂 no lie I'm using the moonviel but I only faught one person who used it so far. Everyone else has had a weird build but I have honestly grown tired of it. I'm working towards dual wielding twin swords.
@@BussyEnthusiast I been dabbling here and there's there's a good mix of builds on PS4 I don't know what you play on but it's pretty balanced for this platform from what I noticed. Too much people on TH-cam trying to get the same weapons.. I'm guilty 😂 I understand the frustration but if there's something from software has taught me is that there is always a counter to everything that God skin peeler is my next build base
8:40 The beast repellant torch can scare away basilisks and the t. rex dogs in caelid! The sentry torch can reveal black knife assassins when they go invisible and invisible scarabs! All torches also work when two handing another weapon. As long as it’s on your back, it’ll work.
The torch is my favorite, simply for how incredibly unique and uncommon sleep gear is. There's the torch, arrows, and straight sword which all inflict sleep. I'm thinking about doing a hybrid build centered around sleep and something else for variety.
Considering the limited amount of items you find that inflict sleep, and how few enemies use it (if any), it makes me think the DLC might be centered around it, like in DS3 with the ice weapons and the painted world.
The devourer of worlds has a hidden ability. If you use its special move, it will life steal and give you more health the more enemies it hits since it has an AoE effect.
If used properly with enough enemies arround you it can heal you from 1 hit to full even on 99 vigor which is quite nuts. It has quite a slow cast time which is its downside.
9:30 . Urumi is the most dangerous weapon in the southern indian martial arts ' kalaripayattu ' . Only those who have trained this martial art for 12 years are allowed to train with this weapon . Damn glad to see it in elden ring .
St. Trina's arrows also put people to sleep, and they saved my life against that ridiculously annoying Oracle Envoy at the Haligg Tree, the one who snipes you as you try to run down toward him. I sniped him until he fell asleep, then ran up and proceeded to take my vengeance after all the frustrating deaths he made me have.
This game is literally a love letter to adventure games the quest system I like having to go and find stuff and remember I’m 139 hours in and still finding new quests too or finding old ones I didn’t complete 🔥
Blasphemous blade can absorb HP for you. So it's not just badass looking it's useful. Hold it in left hand and use your preferred weapon in the right and go ham.
Bro, Ghiza's Wheel is the actual arm from one of the iron maidens. There are two variations, the other is the go go gadget chain blade arm guy who, imo is much easier to handle. Hate them both tho. Granted they're not much of a threat now, for 100+ hours, the wheel maidens fucked my shit up. Their relentless violence speed and momentum coupled with their placement throughout the game world make them, imo, the toughest standard enemy in the game. I think I started feeling pretty good about fighting them sometime around level 200.
The blasphemous blade ash of war is definitely OP. Just need to have the right build. Oh and the Iron Virgins are those giant torture trap enemies that kidnap you in Rya Lucaria.
I was shocked when he said “it’s nothing too crazy”. Like sir I beat melania by spamming blasphemous blades ability. My faith build makes it do crazy dmg plus it stuns most of the time
I'm just sitting here knowing what the Blasphemous Blade maxed out with a powerful faith/str/Dex build is capable of. I guess they just didn't put much time into it.
the dragon king's cragblade is hella good, it's art hits like a truck with exaggerated amount of hyper armor, managed to get it to hit almost 4k damage
so far I have it at +9 with 60 str and 40 dex, an it really doesn't hit that hard tbh .--. I can poke while blocking and it's meh but it's weapon art is pretty though an it hits hard.
The dismounter is my normal, “ol reliable” weapon of choice. You get it off a kaiden warrior, about 1 in 20 chance at 10 arcane. You can enchant it with by far the widest variety of ashes of war skills and damage type mixups. Its so fun. Also its got a low stat investment and pairs well w frost. Carian phalanx on it does crazy poise damage and the blade itself also lends decent poise damage. Weirdly the weapon i had the most fun with was the dismounter. Not OP, ashes make it fun, and in general, just a great looking sword
Fallingstar Beast Jaw is another weird weapon worth noting. It's literally one of the mandible/pinchers from the Full-grown Fallingstar Beast boss, and it's unique skill you can raise it up in the air and bring down a gravity bolt of lightning.
Urumi is actually multiple thin blades used as a whip. Godrick the grafted not godfrey, Godfrey is the first elden lord and a different boss but patriarch of the golden lineage, it's also radagon not ragadon and mare-icka not mareeka. Another weapon for this list would be the fire braid whip its a whip made of the braid of the fire giant
I have well over 200 hours in and I'm level 200, on my 2nd playthrough. It amazes me how much more there is to the game and I discover something I haven't seen whenever I play. The game somehow still feels fresh and I have many things I'm still grinding for.
Cool to see both of my weapons in the video, I ended up dual wielding the Bastard Stars and Family Heads. Highly recommend to anyone doing an INT build unsure of what weapons to use
Ghiza's Wheel fully upgraded with Lord of Blood's Exultation Talisman is a beast. The skill can rip through bosses and enemies while breaking their stance. I've beaten some bosses 1st try under a minute with it. Also fun to use it as a lawnmower for slugs and rats
Blasphemous Blade not being as "crazy" as other picks while still being the most meta weapon shown in this video x) but what really made me take nothing of this seriously is the Ragadon, too much time making content not enough mastering it!
I remember when Elden Ring came out, I knew it was a big game with tons of content so I pondered how many Gameranx videos we would be able to see. I feel like normally in the past there would be about 3 maybe 4 videos per Triple A release. I’m thinking we are now on video 5 or 6 now just for Elden Ring!
I remember when Elden Finger came out, I knew it was a big game with tons of fingers so I pondered how many Fingeranx videos we would be able to see. I feel like normally in the past there would be about 3 maybe 4 fingers per Tripple Finger release. I’m thinking we are now on finger 5 or 6 now just for Elden Finger!

The flowing sword might be based off of the urumi. It’s an Indian(I think) weapon that can be used as a whip, it’s also known to hurt the user making it also a dangerous weapon to its user
The Dragon King's Cragblade's weapon art is quite good actually. You can hold it to stay in the cloud form for longer, or just press the button to throw people off. If you connect the thrust in the end of the weapon art you deal quite some massive damage once you level up the blade and it breaks the poise of bosses extremely easily. It's not weak at all, you just have to get used to it.
dual st trina's (the sword) is a good build. build up the sleep fast, once they fall asleep you whack them with a rapier or dagger or something (for high crit) maybe even get a buff off on the weapon and then land the counter hit for even more damage. definitely trying it in NG+.
I'm kind of surprised that the clinging bone wasn't mentioned bc it's literally skeletal arms you hold on to like you're playing a thumb war with them, use them like assassin's creed hidden blades except they don't retract, and the skill is a slow, short range stab that has lifesteal. What's more, it's the weapon of choice for an NPC you've probably walked past dozens of times.
Urumi is oddly enough designed after a real weapon and is works rather similar. It's a blade that bends and acts like a whip and go's without saying vary dangerous to everyone including to the welder
If you don't know the "Urumi" is a real weapon and we use this still in Kerala, India in a traditonal martial arts called "Kalari".
I thought this was fairly well known. Ive watched videos of this and its fascinating not gonna lie.
Thx learn something new every day

Blasphemous blade is maybe one of the most op non-katana weapons in the game. It's ash activates really quickly for the damage and range it has
my fave all around weapon for dungeons and some boss(very effective to Malenia)..long range and melee is so good
It's also great to use throughout the world when clearing camps and dungeons as you gain a bit of HP back after defeating each enemy.

The torch is my favorite, simply for how incredibly unique and uncommon sleep gear is. There's the torch, arrows, and straight sword which all inflict sleep. I'm thinking about doing a hybrid build centered around sleep and something else for variety.
Sleep and madness 👀
Check out the Secret Sleepover Society TH-cam, Jacob is doing a playthrough focusing on the sleep sword lol.
Considering the limited amount of items you find that inflict sleep, and how few enemies use it (if any), it makes me think the DLC might be centered around it, like in DS3 with the ice weapons and the painted world.
really good against godskin duo, sleep is an absolute blessing in that fight
The devourer of worlds has a hidden ability. If you use its special move, it will life steal and give you more health the more enemies it hits since it has an AoE effect.
👍🏼
If used properly with enough enemies arround you it can heal you from 1 hit to full even on 99 vigor which is quite nuts. It has quite a slow cast time which is its downside.
I mean it is one of the legendarys
It's not really hidden when it tells you
that’s not hidden it’s literally in the description of the skill lmao
9:30 . Urumi is the most dangerous weapon in the southern indian martial arts ' kalaripayattu ' . Only those who have trained this martial art for 12 years are allowed to train with this weapon . Damn glad to see it in elden ring .
Glad to see one of the most bizarre weapons in real life is also one of the most bizarre in Elden Ring
I didn’t train at all, picked it up and my character knew exactly how to use it..
Given some of the entries, you missed the Godslayer’s Greatsword. A giant sword that ends up coiling into a torch like form.
St. Trina's arrows also put people to sleep, and they saved my life against that ridiculously annoying Oracle Envoy at the Haligg Tree, the one who snipes you as you try to run down toward him. I sniped him until he fell asleep, then ran up and proceeded to take my vengeance after all the frustrating deaths he made me have.
He can sleep? Could've used that knowledge on my first playthrough
Great idea!

Gameranx: “The animation makes it one of the all-time great weird weapons”
Also Gameranx: *places it at number 20*
There's the coil shield which is pretty good it's a shield which has an attack that inflicts poison
With all the "Finger, but hole" jokes, the ringed finger is a brilliant idea XD
Thundercloud form is so good for chasing down Elden Beast.. You will follow him across the map and do damage when you come down
This game is literally a love letter to adventure games the quest system I like having to go and find stuff and remember I’m 139 hours in and still finding new quests too or finding old ones I didn’t complete 🔥
Yes. If they gave you any directions to the next location/step of a quest. Like an old adventure game such as Morrowind
Blasphemous blade can absorb HP for you. So it's not just badass looking it's useful. Hold it in left hand and use your preferred weapon in the right and go ham.
👍🏼
Awesome vid. Cant wait for people to find more secret weapons and you can do a part 2 of this series! :D
Bro, Ghiza's Wheel is the actual arm from one of the iron maidens. There are two variations, the other is the go go gadget chain blade arm guy who, imo is much easier to handle. Hate them both tho.
Granted they're not much of a threat now, for 100+ hours, the wheel maidens fucked my shit up. Their relentless violence speed and momentum coupled with their placement throughout the game world make them, imo, the toughest standard enemy in the game.
I think I started feeling pretty good about fighting them sometime around level 200.
The blasphemous blade ash of war is definitely OP. Just need to have the right build.
Oh and the Iron Virgins are those giant torture trap enemies that kidnap you in Rya Lucaria.
I was shocked when he said “it’s nothing too crazy”. Like sir I beat melania by spamming blasphemous blades ability. My faith build makes it do crazy dmg plus it stuns most of the time
I'm just sitting here knowing what the Blasphemous Blade maxed out with a powerful faith/str/Dex build is capable of. I guess they just didn't put much time into it.
the dragon king's cragblade is hella good, it's art hits like a truck with exaggerated amount of hyper armor, managed to get it to hit almost 4k damage
so far I have it at +9 with 60 str and 40 dex, an it really doesn't hit that hard tbh .--. I can poke while blocking and it's meh but it's weapon art is pretty though an it hits hard.
Why did i start reading it as “with exaggerated swagger” 😂
@@Ephouriae I believe it scales a bit more with Dex than Str being a thrusting sword, maybe that's your issue
@@MrKonnect yeah, it has a B scaling in dex, I have 50 dex and have almost 800 AR
@@Babushkabongwatr gotchu ok, makes sense why my str weps do more damage lol
Love the use of the gem helmet to cosplay as an astronaut in #12
The dismounter is my normal, “ol reliable” weapon of choice. You get it off a kaiden warrior, about 1 in 20 chance at 10 arcane. You can enchant it with by far the widest variety of ashes of war skills and damage type mixups. Its so fun. Also its got a low stat investment and pairs well w frost. Carian phalanx on it does crazy poise damage and the blade itself also lends decent poise damage. Weirdly the weapon i had the most fun with was the dismounter. Not OP, ashes make it fun, and in general, just a great looking sword
Literally picked up the thumbnail weapon in my last dungeon 🤣....haven't used it yet but my first thought..."well this is a weird weapon" lol
This game gets my blood pressure up but I can't stop playing it
Fallingstar Beast Jaw is another weird weapon worth noting. It's literally one of the mandible/pinchers from the Full-grown Fallingstar Beast boss, and it's unique skill you can raise it up in the air and bring down a gravity bolt of lightning.
The Urumi is actually a weapon that exists in real life. It’s not super practical but there are people who are trained in it’s use.
Urumi is actually multiple thin blades used as a whip. Godrick the grafted not godfrey, Godfrey is the first elden lord and a different boss but patriarch of the golden lineage, it's also radagon not ragadon and mare-icka not mareeka. Another weapon for this list would be the fire braid whip its a whip made of the braid of the fire giant
how do you get this many pronunciations wrong when they are literally in the dialogue of the game come on
Umbasa. Jake's tired of Elden ring???
Urumi is a real weapon used in kalaripayattu....
@Sylbaster because it’s just someone reading off a script, that’s how they make so many videos, it’s an efficient production line
I have well over 200 hours in and I'm level 200, on my 2nd playthrough. It amazes me how much more there is to the game and I discover something I haven't seen whenever I play. The game somehow still feels fresh and I have many things I'm still grinding for.
Cool to see both of my weapons in the video, I ended up dual wielding the Bastard Stars and Family Heads. Highly recommend to anyone doing an INT build unsure of what weapons to use
Hahaha. The “ragadon” 3 times in the end killed me.
Nice video though. Fun stuff.
You know a game is good when gameranx puts out a video on it once a week over a month after the game has came out
The weapons are magic, and your question is "how are you holding it?"
Magic.
The giant hair whip could have been a decent addition
Using the fire giants braid to whip enemies is fun as well
The Candlestand is a tactical nuke when underneath large enemies.
"Ragadon"...I'm sure it's Radagon😂 that was funny tho great vid
Falcon’s “sure thing buddy” just made me lose it xD
Mohgwyn was my favorite. His blood spells were everything I ever wanted to be. A dragon bleeds for 12k after third hit 😂
4:50 while it is red it boosts your attack power.
Thank you for this, he never said what the buff was lol
200 hours in, right in front of the last boss, and I haven't even found 1/4 of these weapons. This game is incredible.
I can vouch for the ant greatshield, it has been trusty so far and relatively lightweight.
Jake baldino if you ever read this just know I love your videos. Every morning I wake up pick up my phone from my bedside and watch your daily video 😃
❤️
Falcons my favorite narrator
liquid metal!? next thing you're gonna tell me there's a character called John Connor in this game
First time I see Gameranx make videos (i think 9?) about a game in such a short time. Keep up the good stuff guys !
I thought I found all the weapons ..but after seeing this list.. I have a lot to explore 🤣✌🏼
😅
surprised to see urumi on here lol its an actual real life weapon
8:24 “Weird for one reason, they put enemies to sleep”
Everything puts enemies to sleep with the correct mindset
Ghiza's Wheel fully upgraded with Lord of Blood's Exultation Talisman is a beast. The skill can rip through bosses and enemies while breaking their stance. I've beaten some bosses 1st try under a minute with it. Also fun to use it as a lawnmower for slugs and rats
Don't forget the Living Jar or Alexander's shard.
Remember everyone it's the "WIERDEST" not the "STRONGEST".
Did falcon just say "Ragadon" instead of "Radagon" or am I mistaken
Like 5 times in the span of 30 seconds, yes
Also says "Godfrey" instead of "Godrick" when talking about the dragon head
Dude gettin ragged on for that "Ragidon". 😆
I always thought the oracles where snowmen jazzing out xD I feel so blind
Some of these weapon reminds me of xiaolin showdown’s Shen gong wu like the lotus twister, tangle webcomb, third arm sash, and juju flytrap
FIST OF TEBIGONG!
Miss that show
The heart... of Jong!
Blasphemous Blade not being as "crazy" as other picks while still being the most meta weapon shown in this video x) but what really made me take nothing of this seriously is the Ragadon, too much time making content not enough mastering it!
Also mispronounced Marika.
Thundercloud form is actually INSANELY effective if used properly which really doesn’t take that much skill….
Falcon’s a casul
The cragblade is actually solid does great damage when maxed out
I remember when Elden Ring came out, I knew it was a big game with tons of content so I pondered how many Gameranx videos we would be able to see. I feel like normally in the past there would be about 3 maybe 4 videos per Triple A release. I’m thinking we are now on video 5 or 6 now just for Elden Ring!
I remember when Elden Finger came out, I knew it was a big game with tons of fingers so I pondered how many Fingeranx videos we would be able to see. I feel like normally in the past there would be about 3 maybe 4 fingers per Tripple Finger release. I’m thinking we are now on finger 5 or 6 now just for Elden Finger!

So you actually sat around and thought about that
I also remember when Elden Ring came out....
@@djw_tekken8490 congrats my son
The flowing sword might be based off of the urumi. It’s an Indian(I think) weapon that can be used as a whip, it’s also known to hurt the user making it also a dangerous weapon to its user
Yes it is and we still use this here.
I've seen that the urumi weapon was inspired by actual swords IRL, that have super flimsy blades and roll up like a whip
The jellyshield weapon art IS interesting, it boost your damages by 20 percents, so a nice touch to any dps strat like the azur comet or smth
The Dragon King's Cragblade's weapon art is quite good actually. You can hold it to stay in the cloud form for longer, or just press the button to throw people off. If you connect the thrust in the end of the weapon art you deal quite some massive damage once you level up the blade and it breaks the poise of bosses extremely easily. It's not weak at all, you just have to get used to it.
Binging Elden ring content while going through stormveil
👌🏼
I thought I heard somewhere that necromncer garris killed and experimented on his fam too? Might be making it up
dual st trina's (the sword) is a good build. build up the sleep fast, once they fall asleep you whack them with a rapier or dagger or something (for high crit) maybe even get a buff off on the weapon and then land the counter hit for even more damage. definitely trying it in NG+.
I'm kind of surprised that the clinging bone wasn't mentioned bc it's literally skeletal arms you hold on to like you're playing a thumb war with them, use them like assassin's creed hidden blades except they don't retract, and the skill is a slow, short range stab that has lifesteal. What's more, it's the weapon of choice for an NPC you've probably walked past dozens of times.
It never ceases to amaze me that people can play a game that is fully voice acted and still mispronounce the names of main characters.
I missed the Ringed finger, Will definitively take it for my next play as devotee of the two finger
Urumi is oddly enough designed after a real weapon and is works rather similar. It's a blade that bends and acts like a whip and go's without saying vary dangerous to everyone including to the welder
I've finished the game and thought I found every boss, but seems like I missed this Ragadon guy. Well, time for another playthrough! 😂
Clearly you haven’t beat it seeing as hes the last boss
And his name is also radagon
140 hours in, level 201, and I still havnt seen most of these weapons……
Was listening to thos videonas I was playing Elden Ring and got the visage shield right as you started covering it
"nothing too crazy" bro blasphemous can 3 shot radagon
How did you manage to butcher the names of the two most mentioned figures in the game
Damn. Elden Ring milking is real. Not complaining.
The grafted dragon reminds me of those weird plastic finger puppets from the early 2000s just the way it looks so derpy and non threatening
Falcon: "Ragadon"
Everyone: "Radagon..."
Urumi is actually a historical weapon used in indian subcontinent.
Elden Ring forever!
🤘
Omg they replied....I feel like I touched a celebrity!
I need to find that candle wipe I've really liked the wipes lately
It’s crazy how addicting this game is
The Urumi is a real weapon used by Indian warriors. It’s thinner in real life, though.
