Instead of getting Mighty Shot, like the Composite Bow, the Red Branch Shortbow has the Barrage skill. This skill allows a weapon to fire much faster than normal. In general, this skill isn't as desirable as Mighty Shot, although Barrage does have one advantage. A barrage of arrows has a much better chance of inflicting a status ailment on an enemy than a single s


After the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, the Verdigris Set has earned its place among the heaviest armor sets available in Elden Ring . With its very high weight, it provides maximum Poise and physical defense. The armor also boasts some of the best fire resistance in the game, making it a top choice for melee tank builds that prioritize high defense and an intimidating appearance. Additionally, the Verdigris Set features the highest Robustness of any armor in the g

In terms of the best General Radahn spells, which imitate his moveset in his boss fight, pick up Rock Sling and Collapsing Stars from the base game, as well as Gravity Well and Gravitational Missile. In the DLC, pick up the Ash of War: Spinning Gravity Thrust to imitate one of General Radahn's most infamous attacks.

As for Bell Bearing Hunters, there are four in total, they all appear at night, and they're all inexplicably tough. As with all the previously-mentioned boss enemies, though, the rewards are often worth it. Each hunter awards a special bell bearing upon its defeat, enabling players to gain easy access to high-level materials and more. Track them down at the following locations and bring that A-game; they'll punish anything and everything less.

Okay, so now that most of the bosses have been defeated and most of the dungeons have been found and looted, the only thing left to do is spend all those extra runes at the Twin Maiden Husks Shop in Roundtable Hold. All bell bearings (and the items they unlock) are lost upon starting new game plus, so it's best to buy up as many rare consumables, materials and smithing stones as possible before starting that next run. New game plus is all about playing around with new weapons and such, and it's much easier to do that with a well-stocked inventory. Don't worry about banking runes, there will be plenty more of them in the next run. The best thing to do now is spend 'em!

General Radahn was a master of Gravitational Sorcery and an imposing, terrifying warrior in close combat. Being a heavy bruiser and a master of Sorcery is a tricky business to build stats around, but with the right tools it's not impossible to blend these polar opposites.


Getting one is quite the headache though since the Preceptor Set can only be obtained from Seluvis' corpse after he gets killed by assassins near the end of Ranni's questline. Killing him prematurely won't yield the armor set, sadly. So to get this armor for sure, make sure to attend to Ranni's questline with the help of this guide and periodically check back with Seluvis in Seluvis' Rise in the Three Sisters area of Caria Ma

Once all the remaining high-priority bosses have been dealt with, players may want to consider channeling their efforts into sniffing out any remaining dungeons. While this may seem easier said than done, there are a couple of ways to hone-in on their locations.

Elden Ring is a massive game, so chances are good that it’ll take more than one playthrough to see everything. Seeing as how starting new game plus in underground Areas Elden Ring Ring is as easy as resting at the Roundtable of Lost Grace and selecting the "Begin Journey 2" option, it can be tempting to do so without making any preparations. Don’t do that. There are certain things that can only be done with most of the map accessible and most of the stores unlocked. If one wants to start new game plus on the best possible footing, there are a few steps that should be taken first.


The appearance of this set is quite something, with two giant horns stretching from the armor chest, covering the wearer's shoulders, and serving as additional guards. The design of the bearded helmet is based on an ancient Greek Phrygian helmet, with several minor differen

Depending on how much you want to invest into Endurance, you will likely need to use one of the four Arsenal talismans that can be found throughout the Lands Between (the Great-Jar's version being the strongest). The best arrows to use with the Starscourge build are Radahn's Spears, as they gain a boost to damage when paired with this weapon specifically.

Consecrated Snowfield is something of a special case. Two Night's Cavalry will be guarding a Hearse near the Inner Consecrated Snowfield grace. Both riders must be defeated to get the drops. They leave the Night's Cavalry armor and an Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone, so seek them out.
