I watched this video like 4 times in the last 2 days. while you’re explaining it it all makes sense but the moment the video ends i forget everything 😅 this time i slowed down the speed just a litte bit and took notes! I feel dumb af but at least i got the info! Thanks for the video and i hope you do another for the next area as well
It would help if they just showed you where things were on the map. Doesn't even explain where the church is, just says "go north" as if opening the map was too hard for them
@awaken2049 I didn't consider that, I skipped the dragon because the damage I was doing, I wasn't sure if it was a good time investment but maybe I will go back and try again. Horsey go fast.
I just got Elden Ring for Christmas and your videos have been a god-send :) . One note at the beginning of this one - the great rune doesn't give you a boon unless you use a rune arc, from what I understand (I was hoping for a boost right away, and had to research it)
Equipping a Great Rune does nothing unless you activate it with a Rune Arc. And the effect only lasts until death. Then you need to activate it again. It’s a temporary boost not intended to be used all the time. Think Embers/Humanity from other Souls games.
Thanks, I love these! I explore all I can, but when I hit walls, a general road map is nice. It sounds like if I’ve needed them up til now, I’ll need them even more later. Yikes! I appreciate that they’re largely spoiler-free.
this video is great if u have the FCKIN map fragments and are aware of what enemies are on your way to the places he's said as well as how to get there easily
Me: I’m not gonna learn anything from this guide. Video: *tells me how to unlock great rune I’ve been holding onto for 10+ hours* Me: *watches every Elden Ring video in the playlist*
@@DaveControlLive Nah you need to use a rune arc, I just checked ingame with godrics rune. It's supposed to give you +5 to all attributes but just having it equipped does nothing, you have to use a rune arc. I know in the description it says that rune arcs are only for boosting them but it seems u have to use one
Personally I did raya lucaria before the manor and ainsel caves. Trust me raya lucaria is easy compared to the manor in terms of enemies. And the final boss is a cheesewalk if you just focus on melee and use a spirit summon
Yea but how do you get on the Mountain Level of that Big Mountain Area that Semi Floats in the Sky, it’s in the Bottom Left Side of Liurnia, Left of the Liurnia Lake Shore Check Point
Soo in the beginning where you say. Main gates site of grace head on through it and to the east. That explains nothing of what to do there. My gate is locked I didn’t have him open the gate. Does it have to be unlocked? The clip shows a hallway with some statues. I have not seen that before. How do you get to that hallway?
You and IGN made the explanation for activating the Goddricks Great Rune full of holes. You can’t just walk right up through to bridge there’s a huge fight there. And I love your videos they’re very helpful but maybe just slow down a little. I have to pause constantly and go back. Thanks!
bro i finished all of this area , killed renna but cant figure out how to go to that mountain south , u know west of where u start this area , i can go under the mountain but how to go up ?
Interesting.... I'm watching this video to make sure I didn't miss anything, but the order in which I've tackled these things is completely different. I've already completed the river, relatively easily, but now I'm struggling with the academy and their magic!
i tried to do what he said to do with godricks great rune, travelled to the storm veil main gate and the room he ran in and went to was no where in site
You have to work your way to the crank that opens it. Assuming you have activated the grace behind the lion mini boss. Go to the courtyard you fought him and clear out and explore that court yard and you will find it eventually. If you haven't found the lion mini boss go to the Stormvale Castle lift grace (the one found after the ambush after the grafted sion dining hall) and clear out the ambush courtyard. You will find a path leading down hill, and that path leads to the lion mini boss. Also there is an imp gate in the cellar just off the ambush grounds that acts as a bit of a short cut that will place you near the gate crank
You should actually show us how to get from point A to B, I noticed a couple people were as lost as I am... I love the videos but you should slow them down a notch. That's my opinion
Haven’t beaten Godrick did some of Stormveil and still at +3 flasks and visited all those churches. If I find a seed in Sofia then that’s +4. I guess if I find a seed in Stormveil and beat Godrick that’s 5?
someone needs to explain me how to get on the hill on the left most side in the south west thats above the village. I really wanna get on top of it but I cant seem to find a way... :(
I'm still trying to figure out how to get to the top of the peak above the village of albinaurics, if that's at all possible. Does anyone know? I can't find a way up.
@@DaveControlLive Yeah, just saw another vid. Seems like you have to follow a side quest and have to go down to go up. I wasted so much time circling that peak
Nepheli loux is basically this person that you can summon to help you in the fight after talking to her. You can find her somewhat close to the boss fight
Just FYI, Siofra is pronounced "sho-fra". It's an Irish name. Think like "Siobhan" being pronounced as "Shovaun". Great vid btw! I totally missed that village in the South West.
it’s funny i would of never originally known that if i didn’t see it on youtube, lol i was curious about getting to the tower so i’d find my way there eventually..but realizing it wasn’t always on and you need a great rune to activate after originally activating it, not so much 🤷🏼♂️ lol
You tell players to head east, and I've spent the last 2 hours looking for a way to head east from where I enter north of Stormveil, and all I'm finding is dead ends and sheer cliffs. Would be more helpful to show people how to navigate places instead of looking at a map of where to go. I'd love to go to these places, but I'm to the point where I'm fed up trying to follow guides that don't explain *how* to go a route. I've been all over the east side looking for a way to the highway, and I'm finding nothing. No one has a video for this either.
Best path is what piques your interest, its a lore and gamrplay focused arpg called soulslike and how openworld was presented, being sidetracked rewards players progressively, thats how you get the full experience of its openworld exploration. As rpg with FONV or DOS2, worth mentioning how inspired it is with Dragons Dogma.
I figured it out. I already beat Radahn before trying the Ranni quest and depending on what you’ve done or not before radahn really changes where you need to start her questline. I needed to go talk to Rogier at the round table.

That just means the flower is hitting right ;)
Why not just watch and play the game at the same time lol? 😂 Very wholesome that you took notes though hahaha
@QuinlanVosJr Liurnia is recommended level 40-50
I have five pages back to front of RUclips notes on this game lol
It would help if they just showed you where things were on the map. Doesn't even explain where the church is, just says "go north" as if opening the map was too hard for them
I just like how this is set up as a road map. You still let us go out and explore on our own which is nice
Keep these coming, Dave! Definitely don't wanna miss anything. I love how you balance information with letting us discover stuff on our own.
You don't have to fight the dragon to get the academy key, you can sneak behind him while he is sleeping and grab it.
Dragons are easy since you can use mounted combat u can pretty much full hp it. Gives good amount of runes too
Sneaking past enemies in Souls games is illegal, morally. If we do that the terrorists have won.

@@rabbidguarddog if you're not dealing enough damage just drop a marker on the map and come back later with a leveled up weapon ;)
This video is amazing. I just finished exploring Liurnia and this is a good guide to see if I got to every place there
Yea ive been clearing the area before moving onto the plateau and I was kinda disappointed there's not more to do
perfect! exactly what i was looking for with as minor spoilers as possible. ty
Please keep doing these, this is amazing for guiding players.
Hi Cameron
I just got Elden Ring for Christmas and your videos have been a god-send :) . One note at the beginning of this one - the great rune doesn't give you a boon unless you use a rune arc, from what I understand (I was hoping for a boost right away, and had to research it)

Great runes now have passive effects.
@@MrDEurich was that patched in? Last I played they did nothing until activated- like a humanity or ember
@@Vonatar74 Must've been. New player here but Godricks Great Rune 100% +3 my attributes. When I equip the rune arc I get the +5.
@@MrDEurich i checked yesterday And I'm not getting any benefit from Godrick's rune (on PC)

I'm in Caelid and watched this I can't believe how much I missed lol thanks for the guide!
please keep going with this, is so helpfull, if u can explain to get to the final bosses of each area that will be a big help.
this video is great if u have the FCKIN map fragments and are aware of what enemies are on your way to the places he's said as well as how to get there easily
This game is insane and addictive ! Wow there is so much in this and don’t know where to begin or what weapon to upgrade, and so on .
I like how the messages when you enter all tell you “beware of just getting started”
Really cool, I was afraid of spoilers but this video had very little of them. Good job!
Me: I’m not gonna learn anything from this guide.
Video: *tells me how to unlock great rune I’ve been holding onto for 10+ hours*
Me: *watches every Elden Ring video in the playlist*
Not only do you need to use it at the grace. You also need to activate it with a special item or else it won’t do anything.
@@Casartelli You don’t need to use a Rune Arc - it just makes the effect more powerful

The axe troll in that first dungeon is wrecking me 😂
Please keep making these!
Finally a gamespot video worth clicking the like button for
You don’t have to fight the dragon to get the key. Hop around behind it, grab the key, and then ride the heck out of there
But fighting dragons are kinda easy, just lock on to their legs and dodge the fire and go back to his legs. It's fun.
Yes please make more thank you! I have referred to this several times
Helpful vid. Liurnia is so big
bro thanks but you dont show where is it on map, example you showed the shiny tree but didnt show on map so i couldnt find it
Thank you so much, super helpful!
This Best Path just strayed to "how i took my path based from "how to get OP early" from other content creators".
Great videos! Keep them coming.
How do you get on top of the big cliff at the southwest side of liurnia?
Yea but how do you get on the Mountain Level of that Big Mountain Area that Semi Floats in the Sky, it’s in the Bottom Left Side of Liurnia, Left of the Liurnia Lake Shore Check Point
How do you even get to the lakeside site of grace?! The most confusing part of the thing was skipped over
This video is amazing thank you.
Great content!
It would be nice if you marked where you got the map thing on the map
Nice and funny to see how you took a different path. I did south Liurnia first, academy, Manor,… East.
that’s what’s great about this game i went south, manor, academy, east..so many paths lol
Funny thats how openworld arpg that were gameplay and lore focused does in openworld exploration called soulslike
Yeah this is brilliant! Really helpful please do another.
it reminded me when he was talking about goddrick and summoning, don’t sleep on that jellyfish summon! lol
Exactly what I used for him😂 its attack having range is great for distracting enemies, allowed me to focus on his patterns a lot morr
Pretty sure that’s a dog @2:45 and not a turtle
Soo in the beginning where you say. Main gates site of grace head on through it and to the east. That explains nothing of what to do there. My gate is locked I didn’t have him open the gate. Does it have to be unlocked? The clip shows a hallway with some statues. I have not seen that before. How do you get to that hallway?
all other guides talk about mid to end game builds. yet here we are watching Liurnia..

I can't believe I missed all those sacred tears. I guess im heading back to limgrave
Hi. So it’s better to do Siofa River and Ainsel River before academy and three sister after that? Thanks.
dude forgot to mention fighting cystaline with Strike weapon whicb makes it convinient and even a Gold halberd +6 would make it time consuming.
I know you can get to placideusax from West Liurnia. Would you recommend fighting him at this point or waiting?
How do i get off the lake facing cliffs i went to right nothing i went to left nothing
bro i finished all of this area , killed renna but cant figure out how to go to that mountain south , u know west of where u start this area , i can go under the mountain but how to go up ?
Maybe I missed it but what about the huge piece of land towering high above that seems impossible to get to south west of the map in Liurnia?
Not yet
Interesting.... I'm watching this video to make sure I didn't miss anything, but the order in which I've tackled these things is completely different. I've already completed the river, relatively easily, but now I'm struggling with the academy and their magic!

Can you go on top of the mountain in village of albinaurics?
I beat godrick but the main gate to the castle is still closed, what am doing wrong?
You have to work your way to the crank that opens it. Assuming you have activated the grace behind the lion mini boss. Go to the courtyard you fought him and clear out and explore that court yard and you will find it eventually.

@@christracey5813 you're awesome for taking the time to respond 🙏
Why did he say to explore Village of the Albaneurics so throughly?
You should actually show us how to get from point A to B, I noticed a couple people were as lost as I am... I love the videos but you should slow them down a notch. That's my opinion
please make the second part as soon as possible
Will do! It’s written, we’re working on editing it now. :)
Haven’t beaten Godrick did some of Stormveil and still at +3 flasks and visited all those churches. If I find a seed in Sofia then that’s +4. I guess if I find a seed in Stormveil and beat Godrick that’s 5?

@@cyco7229 read my comment ???
RUclips has gotten so bad you can’t even skip ads anymore
1:00 this is false, you need to use a rune arc to actually get the bonus
he didnt lie he just didnt explain the whole thing
So I finished Raya but watching this video, it seems I missed a lot in lucari!
0:45 you need to be clear to turn right after going through the gate
The main gate ain’t open for me
what is the “felly lude” your talking about at 0:40
Nepheli loux is basically this person that you can summon to help you in the fight after talking to her. You can find her somewhat close to the boss fight
@ it’s crazy how the algorithm works, i figured that out by myself on my next playthrough this was 2 years ago 😭😂
2 pub of 20sec each and i can't skip ooooh i Like it ...
Liurnia is the best. Nothing better than riding your hosrse around the swamp at night with nothing but a torch😅
Siofra River is much harder than Ainsel River. Should probably do those in reverse order
I'm confused. You say to skip Caria Manor and then immediately proceed to something that Caria Manor is a prerequisit to........
you can visit Siofra/Ansiel River anytime, it's requisite only for a questline but yeah, it sounds a little confusing the way he put it.
How do you get to the minor erdtree in that area? I cannot get through the ruins labyrinth and find a route up to the plateau it's on.
Where did you get that sword?
More please
Just FYI, Siofra is pronounced "sho-fra". It's an Irish name. Think like "Siobhan" being pronounced as "Shovaun".

ask the npc in the room to the left of the gate, or go round and on the other side of the gate is a big room with a lever that opens it.
