  • IGN once released the WORST PvP guide for Elden Ring you'll ever see... but did you ever grasp how BAD it really was? Today, Ranni, Melina, Roderika and Sellen take a trip to the past and show you a TERRIBLE PvE guide disguised as a PvP guide, released by IGN.

      Is anything this guy really said incorrect? Maybe, didn't elucidate on some things, but that isn't incorrect, just not adding more info.
      What happened to letting people play the way they want? You talk about contradictions but you shat on steelovsky for critisizing people for l2 spamming, and not letting people have their version of fun, now ur doing the same.
      Is this just because it's popular to shit on IGN? Did this really need to be made? Was anything said here actually evil or anything?
      Stop attacking every elden ring creator that isn't you, there is critisizm, then spitefully and brutally attacking everyone who doesn't think exactly the same as you, jesus.
      Dude does anyone even watch ign anymore? You probably gave it more exposure by even talking about it, pff.

      Me and my cousin had an invasion last over 10 minutes because the guy kept trying to lure us over to a dragon, that we had teamed up to fight in the first place, but he interrupted us. I eventually just said 'fuck it' and charged him despite the dragon, while my cousin rained spells from on the hillside. I legitimately forgot if I lost or killed him, I'm pretty sure I was the host tho. I think we did eventually get him and then killed the dragon bu tit's been a while. I only really remember the situation as a whole and that it was that rot dragon outside the Dragon temple.

When he summoned in, he looked at me and then ran behind a corner to set up the glitch. I, of course, with nowhere to run, died horribly.
    He messaged me after, trying to justify his use of a glitch by saying I had a Moonveil on my hip. This is, of course, coming from a player wielding Rivers of Blood and was post-Moonveil Nerf.

    I hail from the glory days of From Soft PvP, where people would greet the host or invader, allow everyone to heal up fully, before refusing to heal during the fight, and honor the loser, where people had honor, and the most skilled player won, not the ones who had two or three extra helpers so they could just spam at the invader and make it literally impossible for them to do anything.

    What I understand from the video as someone who has not played Elden Ring (I will play when the Expansion comes out): The IGN guy was at least 59 levels above meta level of PVP (from what I read the PVP is more active in levels 120-150),he suggested weapons with cool weapon arts for PVP (from what I remember back in DS3 some of the favorite victims of invaders were Farron Greatsword and Friede's Scythe users) instead of relative boring weapons (with Powerstance the best weapon categories for PVP are probably Spears , Halberds and thrusting swords) and he used glitches for PVP guide.

    It would make sense that the most commonly used weapons are the most predictable weapons.
    Even if you play mind games and try to use the predictability of your chosen weapon to your advantage, the chances are that good players will test you out first and adjust playstyle accordingly.
