If you kill him before you die three times, the quest will progress anyway. The three death thing is just there due to how the online version works (use the finger 3 times, doesn't matter if you win or lose.) So it works the same, just that the NPC won't respawn once dead and the quest will continue.
But the thing is here, he won’t respond, I invade him 3 times and then kill him 4th time, got the rune arc but the blood summon still there and varre doesn’t progress:(((

@@willbyers7233 I don't think its bad looking up items to help your build, to fromsofts's credit elden ring is massive but that also means its far more difficult to find relevant items , especially if you spec into some of the more limited attributes with harshly limited item pools. As much as people would like to, not everyone has all the time in the day to wander aimlessly essentially crossing their fingers that a relevant item will drop.
With this new patch it makes invading WAY faster, check it out. Also if you meant that you just weren’t able to kill the host, you don’t have to. When I’m doing a fun speed run I invade and then let them kill me.
@@falloutboy231 you do lose your runes, so instead just invade and then immediately back out of their world. It'll still count and you can keep your runes
I’m ok with this update. I dont play online. Ever. I like to do challenge and lore runs. It’s a pain to have to invade an actual human. Does killing him on the first try progress varre’s questline or do you have to atleast die twice to him on order to invade 3 times? If I remember correctly you needed to invade online people 3 times.
If you are asking if you only have to invade them 3 times, then no. With the volcano manor questline it's always been NPCs and you must kill them to progress.
Since you are mentioning Volcano Manor, (I think) You dont need to talk knight Bernahl to summon him in the godskin duo fight ,if you do this questline
On the first try I killed him without knowing I was supposed to die on purpose so I could use the festering bloody finger 3 times is there a way to undo that or another location I could do this?
You need to find one of the 2 dead finger maidens around the map. I personally recommend the one in Church of Inhibition (located in Liurnia of the Lakes) cause you can get the finger maiden armor set off of her. The other is at the very start of the game, which you can get to from the Four Belfries. There's other videos out there that go into great detail on the quest, I highly recommend you check those out, as this video was just meant to show the new offline segment added to it.
Ty very much, I killed him on the second attempt and was scared that the quest would not continue but yes even if u kill him first time the quest continue
So youre telling me, since i started playing elden ring on patch 1.08, i couldve always just done this instead of having to restart my game to activate online mode?! And im just now finding out about this after 300 hours smh
i’m playing on seamless coop, and i beat magnus, but i still get the dialogue as if i never completed the quest. is there anything i can do to complete with the mod enabled?
Does doing this still progress you to warp to Mohgyn Dyansty Rune Farm now completely offline? It's literally the only thing I want to be able to do with this.... I'm on NG+2 going for frenzy flame ending.
I discovered this method by accident while trying to get two great stars. Glad I don't have to fight commander niahl to go to snowfield and then teleport. Fuck this game btw.
not sure if you found the answer yet, facing the ruin from the road it is in the left broken foundation, the dogs, lure them one by one easier that way
I'm currently having problems with my PS+ subscription, as my card saw it as an unauthorized transaction and it put a temporary freeze on my account. So I'm forced to play offline till i can figure out how to fucking pay my subscription again, even though i told my bank i approve of the transaction, my card still won't work for the PS+ payment. So fucking annoying. Came back too elden ring recently though, so this definitely helps! Thank you!!
Nay, he gives ya that many in case ya need em, if you kill the red npc after invading, ya won't need more than one, but if he kills ya, then you'll need to use up to two more fingers--one finger if ya win 3 fingers if ya get defeated, seems to advance the quest
Lmao the point of the game is to explore,this stuff can be found by just progressing through the game by just exploring.If you want to be constantly hand holded use one of the many guides that exist for this game or just go play an assassin’s creed game or just any mediocre bland open world game from Ubisoft lmfao.keep seething 🤣
There's really nothing woke about a game that expects you to be competent enough to play and figure things out with your hands. Jesus fucking christ, you should try play old generation games, like Baroque or Phantasy Star. Those games aren't considered woke-- But, what do I know? Maybe you'll find those games especially woke. Because they don't tell you what to think or believe-- It gives you a chance and context clues to figure things out like a smart cookie. And that, like you implied, is woke. No info is given by the game. Indeed, the OLD wokeness people don't hype enough about.
@@wolfpacrule The whole point of the game is EXPLORE a dark post apoc game that is out to get you. If the game holds your hand an tells you WHERE to go... it kind of defeats the purpose of exploring and finding stuff. If you cant find something you can always find a guide. If this is a problem for you... its not your type of game... stop crying that its 'garbage' and admit that you want a more linear game. You are literally making a fool out of yourself here xD

To be fair, Yura and Millicent don’t point you in the direction for their invasion spot. I’m not saying it’s any less silly, but there you go.
to be fair, a grace in the near has a "story arrow" pointing at the ruin

Thanks for the guide! It was really hard for me to invade people to begin with so knowing that I won't have to invade an actual player is a relief.

@@falloutboy231 do you lose runes when they kill you?
@@animethighss69 I'm not sure
@@animethighss69 Your runes are dropped where you died when invading, even if that's on the other side of the map
@@falloutboy231 you do lose your runes, so instead just invade and then immediately back out of their world. It'll still count and you can keep your runes
I have done this twice now and only needed to kill the NPC once on each playthrough.
Great guide thx for the work.
Well edited, concise, and detailed. Thank you for the video! (All the deaths shown are pretty funny and relatable too lol)
Thanks for solid guide man! And damn quick work making it.
Honestly thank you. The other guide I watched of this managed to turn this into a 10 minute video 🤦

I'm 99% sure killing him will progress the questline even if it's your first attempt as it's the only NPC this quest works with.
I'm the same dude, I never play from soft games online, just hate the online community and their spammy bs
@@Ash21you don't have to kill him just invade 3 times and the quest is already done
i can not see the red sign on the ground in then ruins, help
BRO! Thank you so much! Lifesaver!!!
Finally I can farm runes even though I pirated the game lesgooo
The location of this NPC literally makes sense. Writheblood? Now what kind of name would that represent? None other than Mohg.
Thx for not making this a 10 minute video ♥️
cool bonus, we can now get two great stars in one playthrough now
Does this also work with the volcano manor quests?? Like when you invade the scaled knights area
If you are asking if you only have to invade them 3 times, then no. With the volcano manor questline it's always been NPCs and you must kill them to progress.
Since you are mentioning Volcano Manor, (I think) You dont need to talk knight Bernahl to summon him in the godskin duo fight ,if you do this questline
I'm doing a rl1 play through atm it's impossible to find compatible people to invade, even though ik I'd get violated 😂😭
Would this work with the volcano manor questline aswell? I know you have to invade other npcs worlds but i dont think you use the bloddy finger
On the first try I killed him without knowing I was supposed to die on purpose so I could use the festering bloody finger 3 times is there a way to undo that or another location I could do this?
I'm pretty sure killing him progresses the quest, but if it doesn't there's no other ones that I know of.
I can confirm that it does progress
I’m in the same boat, killed him on the 2nd try and he didn’t give me the teleport…?
So how do you soak the white cloth ?

Im not sure how im supposed to invade his world 3 times. Ive invaded once but his summons sign is gone now
Same
@@martinsoteloc.4106 you'll see. It shows up again at the blood omen area

Oh good, not only is it not mentioned but its my favorite type of invader. A spaz
What if you beat him first try does the sign still appear afterwards?
Thank you so much 🎉🎉
Hey I invaded him and killed him and he is not appearing again so does that mean I cant progress in varre's questline?
Same thing happened to me, what do i do?
I like how you can do it still
But there's a one problem is that your characters eyes changes this bothers me a lot in new game plus
Bro I can't find the spot I went there but there was no offline spot
i’m playing on seamless coop, and i beat magnus, but i still get the dialogue as if i never completed the quest. is there anything i can do to complete with the mod enabled?
same
Omg thank you!!!
Does doing this still progress you to warp to Mohgyn Dyansty Rune Farm now completely offline? It's literally the only thing I want to be able to do with this.... I'm on NG+2 going for frenzy flame ending.
yes, this will still reward you with the item used to go to mohg, and from there you can run towards the rune farm area.
@@Ash21 Thanks!
@@billj.8690 Did it work?
What can i do if i do kill him on the first try ?
It finishes the quest anyway
OMG I DISCARDED THE FINGERES ON ACIDSENT WHAT DO I DO HELP

Thanks I love you
Damn boyy this helps a lot 🙏🏻🙏🏻😭😭😭
I defeated him and I can't invade him anymore is it normal?
yes
@@Ash21 ok thanks
I went to the spot but I only saw the dogs pls help

@@jamesryks3804 I know why sorry my version is at 1.0
thank us o much rly thank u
He ain't there for me even after reloading the game...

Update your game to 1.08 it works
@@rameshji1980 yeah. When i tried my game was still on patch 1.00. so i updated it to 1.07 last week. And it worked

Thanks man
ty for that tip
I cant find the blood stain
I kill the 1st. Time ....it only take once if you win.
If I kill him on my first try am I screwed?
He gave me five festering bloody fingers does that ruins it for me ?

Nah the fight isn't that difficult you just need to put some close on and put some points into vigor
