    This episode we focus on Liurnia again, mainly on the portions just south of the Royal Academy. The Fell God spell we obtain is needed for the platinum and the Rose Church questline is the earliest we can get a permanent invasion item.

I’m trying to fathom the thought process and the design that went in to stitching this all together. The code alone must have taken years or at the very least a huge team, or both. Never played a FS game before but my respect for them as a studio has gone through the roof, they’re immense

    FOR ANYONE WHO CAN'T PLAY ONLINE OR DON'T LIKE INVASIONS: In Altus, there is a ruin called Writheblood Ruin. If you are playing in Offline mode, there will be a red summon sign here for an NPC named Magnus The Beast Claw. Killing Magnus will also progress White Mask Varré. I wouldn't recommend going there until CowBoy does because resting at a Site of Grace in Altus is actually a trigger for several npc quests so you could end up missing something.
    Magus also drops a Fulcalling Finger Remedy, a Rune Arc, a Somber Smithing Stone 6, some runes, and a decent weapon called the Great Stars (you can get Get Stars in a different way, but killing Magis lets you get 2 of them without going to NG+.)

I just said screw it and went into the ring. I'm not a pvp player, but I think the way the community does pvp is really cool. I also think pvp is something everyone should try at least once.

The person never attacked me and didn't help. I don't know if that was motivation knowing that the person could step in at any time, but I killed the mini boss. That kind of ettiquite I appreciated. If it was just random enemies, sure, come at me, but I was so thankful that the person didn't try to attack during a mini boss. I wish I could have thanked that person. He's the real hero!

      Some people will say you shouldnt use a walkthrough when playing for the first time. It may be somewhat true but I am someone who understands why some people use it for their first playthrough. I remember watching cowboy play dark souls 3 and he had some items I didnt and i would think to myself where the hell did he get that? So i use the walkthrough for elden ring on my first play through bc i dont want to miss out on having the best items and making my character the best he could be. What I do recommend to preserve the first time experience is too go through the areas on your own in order. Avoid talking to or killing NPCs and using specific items. If you suspect it'll ruin a questline then do not do it. I am a few areas ahead of these walkthroughs; however, i still watch them and follow along just in case i missed anything

    When doing the invasions for Varre, just a little warning (for cosmetic reasons) for what happens when you do it. I don't know if it's on the first invasion or the last one or if it only happens when you defeat the host but you can get permanent red "evil" eyes. You can turn them off in the mirror at roundtable but those eyes overwrite every other eye event you can get. For example, you can no longer get glowing yellow dragon eyes from eating dragon hearts or using dragon attacks. Apparently doing that part of the questline locks you out out of all other eyes you can get forever on that character. So if you care about that, then don't do the invasions. You can get to the area he was talking about later, although it's near end game. Up to you.

    If anyone deserves to make RUclips a career it is you. The amount of time and effort you are putting into these Elden Ring walkthroughs is staggering. I would go mad trying to explain this game.

      at 27:30 CB did just that- there are two different ways to get it- this way, and later in the volcano manor questline. but the reward is a permanent invasion item that you won't need anyway. the only other thing you get is a teleporter to mohgwyn palace, which you'll eventually get to anyway- but again, if you're not playing online then it's irrelevant since you won't be able to do that part.

    to reiterate the sacrificial twig item, you want to equip it when you die with a few levels worth of runes, and you have to run back to them.
    your runes will be at the "last stable ground" which is usually the last place you were able to perform a jump or attack, so don't necessarily return to where you died if you fell of a cliff :)

  • @nicholasevans9627
    @nicholasevans9627 Год назад +6

    Considering this video is a year + old now, the invasion mechanic is currently broken in this game when tied to the Bloody Finger Quest Line.
    So the when placing a bloody finger down, the game tries to "matchmake" with a character close to your level. There could be 30 players near you, but if you're a significant higher lvl, you won't be able to invade them.
    I tried going along with the guide, but because I was a lvl 70, I didn't get any invasion for hrs. And I mean 6+ hrs. You're going to have better chances as a low level.
    This quest will eventually be busted later on depending on how many players are are left in this game.
