Elden Ring: These Staffs Will Make Your Quest Easier In Shadow Of The Erdtree!

The most attractive items in Elden Ring are the armor and sets scattered around, which are essential for players who want to defeat powerful enemies. Many armors are equipped with unique defensive properties, which are effective against various elemental attacks and different types of damage. Read this guide to learn about the value and unique characteristics of these armors. 10. Divine Beast Head Divine Beast Head is the head of divine beast dancing lion that players must fight in Belurat Tower. This mask provides players with significant strength and dexterity increases, while also enhancing storm-related skills. Specifically, the player’s strength and dexterity are increased by 4 points each, making Divine Beast Head mask one of the most significant armors in the game. However, to balance this tremendous advantage, the helmet also weakens the effect of flasks and affects the player’s concentration. 9. Royal Remains Set Royal Remains Set is made of decayed and rusted metal. After wearing this armor set, the player will look like a living undead skeleton. This armor provides the player with a passive healing over time effect, which is a unique feature for an armor set. It is also great for those who are not too keen on managing health potions in combat. 8. Twinsage Glintstone Crown Twinsage Glintstone Crown is a tremendous boost to all mage builds. The crown makes the player look like two large stone heads fused together at the ears. The helmet increases the player’s intellect by 6 points, allowing many players to easily meet their spell and weapon requirements after equipping the helmet. However, wearing the helmet also comes at the cost of the player’s maximum HP and stamina, which are reduced by 9% respectively. For many mages, the benefits of this armor outweigh its disadvantages. 7. Mushroom Crown Tailored to the theme of rot and decay, Mushroom Crown is perfect for any scarlet rot or poison-based build. After inflicting a scarlet rot or poison status nearby, this helmet greatly enhances all damage. The damage boost applies 10% to all instances of damage for approximately 20 seconds. This buff can also stack with other poison-related buffs. 6. Black Knife Armor Black Knife Armor is adorned with a unique set of pearlescent scales, with a translucent cape covering the chest plate. This set of armor provides the wearer with complete stealth, allowing them to fulfill their dream of being an assassin in Lands Between. Players can get close to their enemies without alerting them. 5. Rakshasa Set Rakshasa Set is stained with blood, reeking of bloodshed and carnage. This set of armor provides the wearer with 8% overall damage boost. This is a significant boost, as it applies to all damage dealt by the player wearing it. However, the armor also effectively makes the player take the same percentage of damage. 4. High Priest Hat High Priest Hat is a very valuable piece of armor that many people may overlook. Obtained after completing Count Ymir questline in Cathedral of Manus Metyr, this helmet increases the intellect and arcane stats by 1 each. While this isn't the biggest boost in the game, it is free. It is one of the few Elden Ring Items in the game that gives a free dual stat boost. 3. Silver Tear Helmet Silver Tear Helmet is one of the biggest and most valuable stat boosters in the game. This mask features a unique design of a liquid metal teardrop on the player’s face. This helm maximizes the arcane stat, boosting it by a massive 8 points. However, this tremendous advantage also comes with a corresponding disadvantage. Equipping this mask will reduce physical damage output. But for any player who wants to create the most powerful arcane builds, this mask is a good choice. 2. Imp Heads Imp Heads are one of the most common enemy types in Catacombs, usually appearing in conjunction with Skeletons. Defeating these enemies can yield some valuable rewards. Each imp type has its own weapon and signature helmet, and each imp has a chance to drop its own unique helmet that provides different stat buffs to the player. However, some helmets have a drop chance of only 0.5%. After equipping these helmets, you will get a nice 2-point stat boost to intellect, strength, dexterity, and even endurance. 1. Guardian Garb Guardian Garb is worn by enemy guardians in Minor Erdtree. Any player who equips this chest armor will receive increased healing from flasks of crimson tears. Healing from a flask of sacred tears can be increased by 10%, and in some cases the player can even receive additional healing. However, this armor will reduce the player’s overall fire resistance. These armors not only help players gain an advantage in combat, but can also be selected according to different combat styles and needs. Whether pursuing strength, intelligence, or dexterity, the armor in Elden Ring can provide powerful support for players.

There are over 10 new bosses in Elden Ring Shadow of The Erdtree DLC, but they are often hidden deep in Realm of Shadow and can be missed if you're not careful. Some of them are so hidden that you need your Tarnished to solve puzzles. There are supreme bosses and optional bosses, but the optional bosses are the easiest to miss. These mysterious bosses usually have their own exclusive dungeons, and the paths to these dungeons are also very secret. This guide will introduce two representative bosses - Bayle The Dread and Putrescent Knight. These two bosses are located close to each other. Let's start with the easiest one! Bayle The Dread Bayle The Dread is technically the first optional boss you encounter in new DLC, but it's also one of the hardest bosses to defeat. But fortunately, his location is very easy to find, so we'll start with him. If you want to find him, you need to enter Jagged Peaks region in the southeast of the map. If you haven't explored anywhere in DLC yet, you can follow the steps below to get here. First, you need to go to Ellac Greatbridge in the north of Gravesite Plains. After crossing this bridge, you will reach one of the most important locations in DLC - Castle Ensis. In addition, you will find Castle Front Site of Grace. From here, you need to go up the southeast fork, and eventually you will reach Pillar Path Waypoint Site of Grace on the top of the mountain. Finally, in the south of this plateau, you will find a hidden dungeon - Dragon's Pit. In it, you can defeat Ancient Dragon-Man and obtain many Elden Ring Runes and Dragon-Hunter's Great Katana. After completing this battle, you need to continue forward and you will find Castle Front Site of Grace. At this time, you have entered the southern map. In the jagged rock area where the dragon spawns in the pool, there are two paths for you to choose - one leads to Grand Altar of Dragon Communion. The other leads to Jagged Peak. If you still want to fight Bayle, you need to take the left path. Following this path, you will not only bypass the mountain but also jump over the dragon in front and directly reach Bayle's arena. As I just said, Bayle is very difficult to deal with. Although he is also the easiest to find, you can still choose to find him last and fight him when you are better equipped. Putrescent Knight Putrescent Knight is located on the southernmost part of the map, on Cerulean Coast. If you have already explored Dragon's Pit mentioned above, you can access Cerulean Coast more easily. From Dragon's Pit Terminus Site of Grace, follow the pool of water where the drake field boss appears to the right (south) to find Grand Altar of Dragon Communion. There is a very large dead dragon here, and you can't go wrong. After crossing the dead dragon, you will find an area called Charo, which is a hidden tomb, which can be identified by the unique red leaves here. From this area, you can use Torrent to descend directly to Cerulean Coast mentioned above. Once you reach Cerulean Coast, you still need to continue to walk south until you see a land bridge leading to an enormous crater. Here you need Torrent, and carefully jump down from the hole to minimize the threat of falling. Finally, you will reach Stone Coffin Fissure underground. At this time, you need to get out of the car and walk to it. Stone Coffin Fissure is a very difficult dungeon because there is a group of stone creatures that will attack you with beams. You need to pass quickly through this dungeon while dodging the beams they emit. Here is a tip for you: stand directly under them to keep you safe. After passing the last barrier, there is a Site of Grace where you can take a breath. After resting, continue forward until you enter the end of Fissure Depths Site of Grace. You need to be mentally prepared - because the next is a very difficult boss station. On the huge stone coffin, you need to touch two objects to enter Putrescent Knight's arena - the statue head at the front hanging over the gigantic pit and the curved horns of the statue. This strange boss will jump directly from the horse to attack you, and the horse that looks like it has melted will also attack you. So you need to be prepared to defend from two different angles. If you are not prepared in DLC, this will be a tough battle, but fortunately, the rewards are relatively rich. Putrescent Knight is actually very important in your later stages of the game, as you can complete Thiollier's quest by defeating him, so you will gain a very useful ally who can help you share some of the burden when you encounter a boss in the later stages. After learning about these two hidden bosses, are you less afraid of bosses in Elden Ring Shadow of The Erdtree DLC? These bosses are not as difficult to fight as you might think. I hope you will have fun in the subsequent games!

In Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree, there are many new items. Like Scadutree Fragment, Revered Spirit Ash can help you increase your game progress. So it is a must-have item in Shadow of the Erdtree. Revered Spirit Ash can help you improve the offensive and defensive capabilities of Spirit Ash, and can make them stronger allies for you. You’ll see this buff in their increased attack and damage resistance. The first thing you need to know is the location of each Revered Spirit Ash. Revered Spirit Ash is divided into four categories according to each region: Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash, Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash, Ruah Ruins Revered Spirit Ash, and Abyssal Wood Revered Spirit Ash. Below is the specific location of each Revered Spirit Ash. Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash The first Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash is located in East of Scorched Ruins. First, you will spawn at Scorched Ruins Site of Grace. Go east and you will find it on a shriveled statue on the plains to the east. The second one is also very easy to find, located on the statue worshiped by the winged people in Ailing Village. The third one is a little further away from the second one, located in the only lake with turtles in Clifford Terminus, and it is also on a statue. The fourth Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash is not as peaceful as the above. You need to climb to the top of Belurat Tower at Main Gate Site of Grace and kill scorpions to pick it up from the shriveled statue. In addition, there will be two other Elden Ring Items on the ground as your reward. The fifth one requires you to defeat some birds first. They are located behind the Private Alter Site of Grace. After killing them, you can move to the next area, where there will be an enemy holding a pot waiting for you. After killing it, you will get the fifth Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash. The sixth one is near Belurat Tower mentioned above. Don’t worry, there is nothing wrong with this bridge, but at the end of it, there will be some very easy to defeat enemies. After killing them, you will see Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash lying peacefully in front of a shriveled statue in front of a tree. The seventh one will appear after you defeat Dancing Lion boss. You can find it in Tower Settlement dungeon Belurat. It is difficult to defeat unless you use skills such as Pierce, Fire, Hemorrhage, Scarlet Rot to suppress it. After you defeat Dancing Lion boss, a Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash will automatically appear in this space. The last Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash may require you to go back a little. Before you enter Ellac River Cave Site of Grace, remember to look around. You can find it on a ledge inside the cave. Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash is easy to find. The first one is in Storehouse on First Floor Site of Grace. There will be a very large specimen statue inside. You can find it easily. In the same place, but on the seventh floor, you will find another specimen statue. The second Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash will also be there. The third one requires you to go out and is located on the edge of a cliff near Moorth Ruins. There you will find a corpse with Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash on it. In addition, this location is also where you go to Bonny Village. Speaking of Bonny Village, the fourth one is here. It is located at the north end of the entire canyon. You may need to walk a long way to find it. Again, it is on a corpse. In the southeast of the ruins, on rivers of Unte, you will find the fifth Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash. The last one is also on a corpse in the Village of Flies, or more specifically on the pedestal. Ruah Ruins Revered Spirit Ash You’ll find 4 Ruah Ruins Revered Spirit Ashes in Ruah Ruins, two of which you can get from an enemy holding a pot like Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash - one at the entrance to Ruah Ancient Ruins, and one in front of an elevator near some Spider Scorpions. You’ll find it in Temple of Ruins, south of Ruah Ruins, where there’s a tattered corpse lying on a pedestal. You’ll also find it in Gazebo, where there are a lot of corpses. Abyssal Wood Revered Spirit Ash You’ll find two Abyssal Wood Revered Spirit Ashes after entering Abyssal Wood, one of the new areas with strong eye monsters in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree. The first one is from the large Omen Shaman after you kill it. It gives you some Elden Ring Runes besides Revered Spirit Ash you want. The second one is located on the second floor of Chamber Site of Grace. You need to turn north inside the building to find a chandelier with Abyssal Wood Revered Spirit Ash attached to it. How To Use Revered Spirit Ash? Revered Spirit Ash in Elden Ring works very similarly to Scadutree Fragment in the base game, so the method for using it is similar. First, you need to go to any of the above locations to get yourself Revered Spirit Ash, then you can be teleported to any Site of Grace and can use them to access the menu. In the menu, select Shadow Realm Blessing. After using it, you can summon Spirit Ash in any allowed location to see if they perform as you expect. Although this is not that important in combat, it will give you a little wiggle room and even a sudden comeback. Hopefully, this guide can increase your understanding of Revered Spirit Ash and how to use it wisely. Have fun playing Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC!

The arrival of Shadow of The Erdtree DLC has dropped a lot of new gear, especially some Samurai-related weapons. If you enjoy destroying anything with wild swings and inflicting bleeding on your enemies, then this Raging Rakshasa Samurai Build is definitely what you are looking for. In this guide, we will cover the play style of this build, what gear to use, the best amulets, useful gameplay tips, and more. So that eventually you will master the enormous power of the newest weapons in DLC and delete everything that stands in your way. Gameplay Raging Rakshasa relies heavily on the power of Rakshasa’s Great Katana, hence the name. Swinging this Great Katana violently is able to deal a lot of raw damage and apply additional bleeding effects, making it even more deadly. In addition, when making said swings, players will also gain a huge Hyper-armor to focus more on destroying enemies, especially bosses. Raging Rakshasa also has high Strength and Dexterity, and a little Faith Stat that grants attack and defense boosting buffs. Its overall gameplay is simple but very effective. Weapons Now that the basic gameplay is out of the way, let’s move on to the gear you need to complete Raging Rakshasa. Main Weapon: Rakshasa’s Great Katana Let’s start with the major weapon of the build, which is Rakshasa’s Great Katana, one of the newest weapons added in DLC. This Great Katana requires 12 Strength, 27 Dexterity, and no Arcane Scaling, which is really weird in my opinion, and it’s D scaling for Strength and B for Dexterity. Not only does Rakshasa’s Great Katana look really exceptional, but it also offers a devastating skill, Weed Cutter. This skill cuts the target horizontally and removes it like a weed, so its name matches its ability. As long as they have Stamina, the user can extend the use time of Weed Cutter, and it only costs 8 FP per use, which is crazy. This skill hits like a truck every time it swings, and since it has an additional bleed effect on top of the original damage, you’ll be dealing a ton of damage in a matter of seconds. Additionally, the user will gain Hyper-armor in the middle of the animation, allowing them to defend against or face normal attacks. While it sounds OP, it has its downsides. While having Hyper-armor is good, the user will also take more damage in the process. And I think the animation of Weed Cutter is very slow, and if you don’t use it correctly, you’ll be vulnerable. Secondary Weapon: Finger Seal Moving on to the secondary weapon for this build, I recommend using Finger Seal. While any Seal will work, Finger Seal is the easiest one for us to get. And by equipping Seal, we can get the buff later. Finger Seal is the starting equipment for Confessor and Prophet classes. If you don’t choose either of these classes, you can also choose to get it directly from Twin Maiden Husks for 800 Elden Ring Runes. Spells With the weapons out of the way, let’s move on to the suggested spells. Flame Grant Me Strength I mentioned that we’ll be getting buffs when using this build, so the first one on the list is Flame Grant me Strength, which provides an additional 20% Physical Attack Boost and Stamina Recovery Buff. Golden Vow The second buff on the list is, of course, Golden Vow. This buff increases overall damage by 15% and adds 10% Damage Negation, which is very helpful for us to offset the negative effects of Weed Cutter. Related: The Best Route To Quickly Complete Ymir And Jolan Questline In Elden Ring! Talismans Next, let’s get to the best Talismans for this build. Shard of Alexander The first Talisman on the list is our major hit, Shard of Alexander, which increases skill damage by 15%, especially when performing Weed Cutter. So be sure to slot this one. Lord Of Blood’s Exultation Since we deal with Bleed procs a lot with this build, I recommend slotting Lord of Blood’s Exultation. This Talisman will provide another 20% attack damage if blood loss procs occur near the user, which happens all the time when using this build. Two-Headed Turtle Talisman Next on the list is Two-Headed Turtle Talisman, which greatly increases Stamina Recovery. This is an upgrade from Green Turtle Talisman, and it will become the main Talisman I use in my build. My gameplay and strategy always revolves around super aggressive gameplay and strategy, so most of the time, I’m completely running out of stamina. Therefore, the faster my stamina recovers, the more damage I can do to the enemy. What’s more, there are a lot of times you’ll find yourself with no stamina, especially after using Weed Cutter skill. Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman For the next Talisman, I recommend slotting Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman for an extra 20% Physical Damage Negation. There’s a good chance you’ll be taking a ton of damage, especially when using Weed Cutter skill, so the damage reduction this Talisman provides will greatly help you survive. Not to mention that almost every enemy in DLC can take 1 or 2 shots and die, so you need this talisman. Stats Let’s move on to the stats for Raging Rakshasa. Starting with Vigor, 50 points have been assigned to it. Since I’m used to Glass Cannon Builds, I rarely assign a lot of points to Vigor, however, since this build is more likely to go head-to-head with enemies, I think 50 points are best. If you’re really good at the game, you can lower it. But if you’re still tuning in, make sure to assign 50 points, otherwise you’ll have trouble resisting the impact of all the enemies in DLC. Next up is Mind, which has 25 points assigned to it. You can at least bump it up to 20 if you want and add it to your other stats since this build doesn’t require that much FP and Weed Cutter is very cheap to use. Talking about Endurance next, we have allocated 30 points to it since the intended gameplay for this build is super aggressive. You will be facing off against bosses most of the time and will continue to use Weed Cutter skill, so I feel 30 points is enough for now. Of course, Endurance being an offensive stat, the more you have, the more damage you will be able to do. In addition, you will also want to have at least 50 Strength and 79 Dexterity so that you can match up well with Rakshasa’s Great Katana. These two are the key attributes of this build, so pay attention to them.  Next is Faith. We allocated 25 points so that you can use the aforementioned Golden Vow and Flame Grant me Strength. Finally, since we don’t need Intelligence and Arcane, no points were allocated to them, they remain at 10 points. How To Optimize This Build? Now that stats are out of the way, let’s move on to Raging Rakshasa’s gameplay and optimization tips. Prepare Wakizashi The first tip I have for you is to prepare Wakizashi and fuse it with Ash of War: Golden Vow. Now, this tip is only for when you don’t want to invest up to 25 points into Faith. While it’s relatively weak, with it you can still increase your damage by 11.5% and increase damage negation by 7.5% across the board. Of course, feel free to use any dagger, I just used Wakizashi to match the theme of the build. Improve Your Opener Secondly, optimizing your opener is also crucial. When the fight starts, I usually use Flask of Wondrous Physick first to make my continuous attacks more powerful. And, to get more damage negation, I will choose to cast Golden Vow to deal more damage and damage reduction. Finally, pop Flame Grant me Strength for more attack boosts, then rush the boss and start executing Weed Cutter skill. Use Weed Cutter Wisely The third tip is to manage Weed Cutter skill wisely. You can still die if you use this skill carelessly, so use it intentionally and leave time to use the skill. Gear Up Properly For the last tip, if you are playing well and don’t need damage reduction, you can swap out Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman for something like Rotten Winged Sword Insignia to get more damage. You can also remove Opaline Hardtear and choose something like Strength-knot Crystal Tear, or get more stamina regeneration by equipping Greenburst Crystal Tear. That’s all about Raging Rakshasa Samurai Build. More top builds are coming soon as more new gear emerges. Try to choose the one you like best and start your adventure!
