On the surface, Marika’s title, The Eternal, can mean that, since she is a vassal of the Greater Will in Elden Ring 's Lands Between , she is to live eternally. It may also be a reference to the long lives of the Numen. However, it could also indicate that she is of the Eternal City. If this is indeed the meaning behind the moniker, Marika would likely have to hide this fact because of the feud between the Greater Will and the
The player's legend would be spread online and become a meme. It grew to be so big that YouTuber "Garden Of Eyes" turned Let Me Solo Her into a summon . It feels awesome to have this powerful character besides the player, especially with their dress. Unfortunately, it is currently only available through the YouTuber's Patr
Elden Ring is an open-world RPG created with help from author George R.R. Martin that is set in the Lands Between, where the Greater Will's influence is the most dominant amongst the Outer Gods that have come in search of power. It is the Greater Will that sends the Elden Ring to the Lands Between, and it raises Marika to godhood so she can contain the Elden Ring as its vessel. However, life under the influence of the Greater Will isn't what all residents of the Lands Between desire, and many of them begin to grow disillusioned with the Greater Will and its Golden Order. The demigods, in particular, stray away from the Greater Will and seek their own paths and power in Elden Ri
The sword and shield are essential for any dark fantasy game and Elden Ring has tons of great shields and swords available. But one thing that Elden Ring doesn't have is indoor plumbing. As such, it's fun to watch the player character run around with a plunger and toilet s
There is a probable chance that the Barbarians of the Badlands DLC and the other leaked games titles are a hoax, but anything is still possible until more is known. According to the leaked image, the Badlands DLC is set to be released during Q3 of 2023 but assuming this is a larger DLC, then that would fit the general timeline of FromSoftware DLC release dates. Until the company releases information about the DLC or more authentic leaks are pushed out, _Elden Ring _ fans may continue to brush this off as a h
Anor Londo's name is likely an adoption of a language created by J.R.R. Tolkien in Lord of the Rings , and can roughly be translated as " Land of the Sun ." If Elden Ring and Dark Souls were connected, the Sun Realm Shield could be an artifact from when Anor Londo basked in the sunlight. Though this is likely just an obscure Easter egg for fans, it does present the interesting idea that the events of the Dark Souls series could have happened long ago in Elden Ring Nightreign Update Ring ’s timel
Understanding the Erdtree requires knowledge of the Lands Between before the Outer Gods, particularly the Greater Will, take an interest in it. Outer Gods that are seeking power would need to have a reason to choose the Lands Between as the place they seek to spread their influence. The Greater Will wouldn't put in the effort and send the Elden Ring to a land if it doesn't gain anything from controlling that land. What the Greater Will is likely after goes back to a point on the timeline before Elden Ring begins . The first hint at what the Greater Will wants is in the Aspects of the Crucible description, which says, " This is a manifestation of the Erdtree's primal vital energies - an aspect of the primordial crucible, where all life was once blended together." Any object or being capable of holding all life blended together would certainly be a target for the power-hungry Outer G
Queen Marika’s backstory must be examined to understand her potential motivations in this theory, which is explored thoroughly by Reddit user Mati9S . These can vary depending on the interpretation. Another crucial point of discussion is the history of the Eternal City and its inhabitants, the Nox. They are likely the reason Mimics exist, but their connection to Marika goes deeper. Ranni and the player Tarnished’s role in the plot must also be explored to evaluate the effect of Marika’s possible true nat
Like many of his half-siblings, Miquella has strayed away from following the Greater Will despite being chosen by it as a possible successor of the Elden Ring. Therefore, Miquella decides to create a great tree on his own in an attempt to replace the Erdtree and make it so that the citizens of the Lands Between don't need the Grace of the Greater Will. Miquella uses his own power to nurture the Haligtree, becoming its core in hopes that it will grow into a great tree that can rival the Erdtree, break his curse of eternal childhood, and free his twin sister Malenia from the curse of Scarlet Rot that eats away at her b
Hoarfrost Stomp was Elden Ring ’s second most effective gimmick and the best tool for speed runners. The Ash of War, which enables players to stomp on the ground and send a wave of ice damage in front of them, could be used by low-level players to eliminate bosses with ease. This is because Hoarfrost Stomp dealt significant damage, cost little FP, had a huge area of effect, was very fast, and staggered opponents. This last facet of the Ash of War was perhaps its best quality, as the stagger allowed speed runners to keep bosses from hitting them while they could just spam Hoarfrost Stomp. YouTuber Schlechtelaunetyp shows just how strong this is even at the beginning of the g
