Elden Ring DLC: How To Choose The Best Heavy Armor Sets For You? - Top 11 Recommendations

As we all know, many new weapons and classes have been added to Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree, and some of them have superior properties than other weapons, which we call Legendary Weapons. In addition to the beautiful Ashes of War, these Legendary Weapons also have very delicate animations, and most importantly, they can make you have a fatal effect on the enemy in battle. This guide will introduce several Legendary Weapons in the DLC, and you can choose the one that suits you best according to its location and usage. But it should be noted that if your Scadutree Blessing Level is too low, it is not recommended to use Legendary Weapons, because it will be a monumental challenge for you. Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword is a very useful legendary colossal sword in Elden Ring, and its quality can perfectly match your Strength, Dexterity, and Arcane. When equipped, you can use its powerful Ash of War ability, called White Light Charge, to deal massive piercing damage to enemies and easily clear anything in your path. Location To get this powerful weapon, you’ll need to start your quest at Ruined Forge in Starfall Pass, southwest of Moorth Ruins. First, you’ll need to go to Site of Grace here, then continue straight ahead, then cross a small bridge and jump off the right side of the bridge. After jumping off the bridge, continue through a corridor and you’ll see a large room. Ignore it as it doesn’t contain Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword or Elden Ring Runes you need. Continue through another corridor until you see a ladder near the second Fire Slime. After climbing the stairs, continue along the corridor above until you reach the main hall of Ruined Forge. You can use the rubble on your left to climb up, and after passing through the door you’ll reach a chain platform. Continue to jump down from the short bridge northeast of the platform below. From there you can pull the lever to raise the gate, jump up and slowly move left. Until you see a furnace, you will see Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword glowing inside. Stone Sheathed Sword & Sword Of Darkness Or Sword Of Light Stone Sheathed Sword is a Straight Sword that first appeared in Elden Ring DLC. Its dominant feature is that it has two variants, Light and Darkness. You can swap between them in the initial altars you pick up. Back to Stone Sheathed Sword, although it is a simple Straight Sword that can change with your Dexterity and Strength, its variants will have much more damage, and the scaling and Ash of War will also change. Normally, Stone Sheathed Sword has Ash of War Square off, which allows you to cut through the enemy from the bottom up. The most troublesome part of this weapon is finding it and how to switch its variants. Location When you are facing Castle Front grace, turn left and move northwest of you. You will find a Fog Rift Catacombs. Continue through these catacombs until you find the second main hall, where there are three giant spike traps. You can use the space on the left wall to cross this dangerous area safely, and eventually you will reach a platform. On this platform, you can kill an NPC to gain XP and Elden Ring Runes, then wait for the trap to deactivate. After it deactivates, you can jump to a small opening in the back of this area, and then you can use the surrounding environment to jump to the second platform. On the platform, you can see a chest containing Blinkbolt’s Ash of War. But the altars that spawn Stone Sheathed Sword are on the roof, so you need to figure out how to jump up again. There is no set method here, just jump up. How To Convert It Into Sword Of Darkness? After you get Stone Sheathed Sword, you can convert it into Sword of Darkness. You need to go to Lower Scadu Altus in Castle Watering Hole Site of Grace, use Torrent to enter Ruins of Unte, and then you need to awaken Furnace Golem. Once you have done that, you can enter the ruins. On the main floor, you’ll find an altar that’s very similar to the one in Fog Rift Catacombs. Interacting with it will transform Stone Sheathed Sword into Sword of Darkness. Sword of Darkness has Ash of War Darkness that can deal Holy damage to enemies, making it easier for you to deal with enemies that are not resistant to Holy damage. Sword Of Light In fact, the steps to transform Stone Scabbard Sword into a Sword of Light are similar to those to transform it into a Sword of Darkness, but the most complicated part is finding an altar to do the transformation. Sword Of Light’s Ash of War Light can also trigger Holy attacks, but the difference is that it emits light to illuminate a small area during battle. This gives you an advantage in dark arenas and battle locations. How To Convert Into A Sword Of Light? Go southwest from West Site of Grace of Rauh Ancient Ruins, and you will find a cave and stairs nearby. Climb this staircase and go north to see Scarlet Lot Cave. When you enter the cave, you will see a horizontal corridor. Go right and exit through two doors and you will find yourself on a balcony. Next is the tough part. You need to do whatever it takes to cross the invisible broken bridge ahead. Again, there is no set way to do this. Just get past it. Once you get past it, you will see a Light Altar that you can transform into.  Euporia The weirdest, most unique weapon in the game is definitely Euporia, which is hidden in the last dungeon of Enir-Ilim in the DLC. It is a twin-blade that scales with your Faith attribute and can also deal a lot of Holy damage. It has a very beautiful Ash of War called Euporia Vortex. It allows you to spin the weapon at a very fast speed and release golden rays in combat, causing Holy and Slash damage to enemies. Location To get Euporia, you need to go southwest of First Rise Site of Grace and walk up a staircase. When you reach the halfway point, an enemy will attack you. You need to pay attention here that its attack point is where you are currently standing, so you need to use some flexible strategies to avoid its attacks. After defeating it with ranged attacks, continue to the north and you will eventually walk into a room. Flip over the balcony in the room and jump down from the left corner. After landing, walk south and there will be a broken railing directly behind a miniature statue. Climb over it and you will reach a platform where you will see an archway in the wall. You can enter without pushing the door, as there is nothing worth exploring here. Slowly follow the archway in the wall until you reach a pillar and then drop down to a thin platform to the south. Walk along the platform to the left and jump up another staircase from the crack. Go down the stairs until you reach the breakpoint and look south, where you will find a door. Run over and jump into the door, from which you will reach the lower area of ​​Enir-Ilim, Belurat Settlement. Use the elevator on the right to move down, or continue taking the stairs until you reach the last elevator. Once the small elevator takes you to the bottom, you will find a gigantic door in front of you. There, you can find Euporia near an abandoned corpse. The above is some of Legendary Weapons in Elden Ring DLC. I hope you can use these powerful weapons to defeat more enemies. If you have questions about combat strategies, you can come to iGMeet Discord to ask. There will be many players here to help you! I wish you a happy gaming.

In Elden Ring Patch 1.13 released some time ago, Golem Fist has become a new favorite among players because the heavy attack of this weapon has a second hit box! Now, at the right range, your heavy attack will attack twice instead of once. This allows you to deal with more damage at close range. But you can’t just use it. You will find that when preparing a build around Golem Fist, you also need to consider the weaknesses and some failures of this weapon. Don’t panic, this guide will list the items you need to prepare and some information you need to know before building a build for it. Golem Fist Pros And Cons First, let’s introduce Golem Fist, which is a new weapon added in Shadow of the Erdtree. You can find it in Ruined Forge of Taylew. Although it has normal boxing-oriented attacks, its unique feature is that it can stand up and fire projectiles. It can be used whether you are charging or not charging, and it does not use your FP. However, it is important to remind you that the damage that Golem Fist can deal is relatively small, but you can use it to hit some large enemies that are not too far away from you. But you can disrupt their rhythm in front of enemies using spells, or add more status effects. As for the low damage just mentioned, after Patch 1.13, Golem Fist can now deal enough damage to allow you to fight some medium-difficulty bosses. Although it will be challenging to use it in PVP because the projectile’s ability to track enemies is poor, the high damage of the heavy attack can still use Golem Fist to fight some enemies that are very close. When used on a boss, as long as you can complete the charge of the heavy attack, you can easily defeat it and pick up Elden Ring Runes. Or, if you don’t have time for a heavy attack, the light attack and dash attack speed of this weapon are fast enough to catch enemies in PVP and PVE well. Although Golem Fist has many advantages, its biggest weakness is that there are a lot of bugs in the game that drag down its overall performance. Although some of them have been fixed in Patch 1.13, there are still some problems left - Golem Fist cannot get pleasant benefits from Smithing Talisman and Axe Talisman. So you may need to pay attention when choosing amulets in the future. In addition, the benefits of Spiked Cracked Tear on weapons cannot be reflected on Golem Fist. Best Ashes Of War Given the pros and cons above, you should consider three things when choosing Ashes of War: increased damage, making it difficult for enemies to interrupt your attacks, and being able to teleport into the effective range of Golem Fist in time. So based on these three points, Ashes of War you can choose from are as follows: Ash of War: Endure Ash of War: Quickstep Ash of War: Bloodhound’s Step Ash of War: Shriek of Sorrow Ash of War: Poison Flower Blooms Twice Best Infusions For Infusions, pay more attention to status build-up. If you like the feeling of a melee in combat, you can also increase the power of attack from Golem Fist a little. Although the first power attack of this weapon is currently buggy and does not apply any status effects, the second blow and the projectile itself still apply status accumulation. So you can learn how to increase it first, and you can get started as soon as possible after the fix is ​​fixed. Since its heavy attacks hit so fast but its light attacks combo so quickly, Golem Fist can still accumulate status effects at a very fast rate. Based on this condition, you can choose Blood infusion or Frost infusion. The former is the best choice of the two, because you can combine White Mask and Lord of Blood’s Exultation with it, so that your punch damage will be greatly increased. Besides those two, Poison is also a superb choice, and you can combine it with Kindred of Rot’s Exultation talisman and Mushroom Crown helmet, which will give you an unexpected effect. Optimal Stats Distribution For Golem Fist, there are two builds you can choose: one that focuses on Faith and Strength, and the other that focuses on Strength and Arcane. If you want your status effects to be stronger, you can put 70-80 skill points into Strength, and then put 40-50 points into Arcane, so that you can get the strongest attack in the light and heavy attack combination. Because of the high Arcane attribute, you can build up status effects very quickly. Alternatively, if your focus is on increasing heavy attacks, you can put 70-80 into Faith and only 40 into Strength. This will allow you to cast buffs and get extremely high damage values ​​from Flame Art infusion. Best Talisman Millicent’s Prosthesis/Rotten Winged Talisman These two Talismans are seen in some common builds and are a must-have. They increase your damage with each consecutive hit, which is very useful for Golem Fist. This damage buff caps out at three consecutive hits, which is the same as four hits with your full-strength heavy attack. Or you can choose to achieve the same effect with a series of fast and frequent light attacks. It’s up to you. Bull-Goat’s Talisman You need to build up your Poise before using Golem Fist to ensure that your light and heavy attacks are not interrupted by enemies. Then equip Bull-Goat’s Talisman, which increases your Poise by 33%. If you want to get your Poise above 75, you can use this Talisman with some heavier armor. Used together, it may have a remarkable effect. Two-Headed Turtle Talisman Whether you focus on Golem Fist’s light or heavy attacks, you should always focus on your stamina. If you don’t want to keep an eye on these stats, you can equip Two-Headed Turtle Talisman, which can help you recover stamina faster and make stamina management easier to handle. If you encounter any problems in Elden Ring DLC, you are welcome to come to iGMeet Discord to tell your problem. I believe that many players in it will definitely give you a perfect answer. You may even have a chance to get some runes as a bonus! After learning some information about Golem Fist, are you eager to open the game and start modifying your own build? I hope this guide can help you in your exploration process, and I wish you a happy game!

There are over 10 new bosses in Elden Ring Shadow of The Erdtree DLC, but they are often hidden deep in Realm of Shadow and can be missed if you're not careful. Some of them are so hidden that you need your Tarnished to solve puzzles. There are supreme bosses and optional bosses, but the optional bosses are the easiest to miss. These mysterious bosses usually have their own exclusive dungeons, and the paths to these dungeons are also very secret. This guide will introduce two representative bosses - Bayle The Dread and Putrescent Knight. These two bosses are located close to each other. Let's start with the easiest one! Bayle The Dread Bayle The Dread is technically the first optional boss you encounter in new DLC, but it's also one of the hardest bosses to defeat. But fortunately, his location is very easy to find, so we'll start with him. If you want to find him, you need to enter Jagged Peaks region in the southeast of the map. If you haven't explored anywhere in DLC yet, you can follow the steps below to get here. First, you need to go to Ellac Greatbridge in the north of Gravesite Plains. After crossing this bridge, you will reach one of the most important locations in DLC - Castle Ensis. In addition, you will find Castle Front Site of Grace. From here, you need to go up the southeast fork, and eventually you will reach Pillar Path Waypoint Site of Grace on the top of the mountain. Finally, in the south of this plateau, you will find a hidden dungeon - Dragon's Pit. In it, you can defeat Ancient Dragon-Man and obtain many Elden Ring Runes and Dragon-Hunter's Great Katana. After completing this battle, you need to continue forward and you will find Castle Front Site of Grace. At this time, you have entered the southern map. In the jagged rock area where the dragon spawns in the pool, there are two paths for you to choose - one leads to Grand Altar of Dragon Communion. The other leads to Jagged Peak. If you still want to fight Bayle, you need to take the left path. Following this path, you will not only bypass the mountain but also jump over the dragon in front and directly reach Bayle's arena. As I just said, Bayle is very difficult to deal with. Although he is also the easiest to find, you can still choose to find him last and fight him when you are better equipped. Putrescent Knight Putrescent Knight is located on the southernmost part of the map, on Cerulean Coast. If you have already explored Dragon's Pit mentioned above, you can access Cerulean Coast more easily. From Dragon's Pit Terminus Site of Grace, follow the pool of water where the drake field boss appears to the right (south) to find Grand Altar of Dragon Communion. There is a very large dead dragon here, and you can't go wrong. After crossing the dead dragon, you will find an area called Charo, which is a hidden tomb, which can be identified by the unique red leaves here. From this area, you can use Torrent to descend directly to Cerulean Coast mentioned above. Once you reach Cerulean Coast, you still need to continue to walk south until you see a land bridge leading to an enormous crater. Here you need Torrent, and carefully jump down from the hole to minimize the threat of falling. Finally, you will reach Stone Coffin Fissure underground. At this time, you need to get out of the car and walk to it. Stone Coffin Fissure is a very difficult dungeon because there is a group of stone creatures that will attack you with beams. You need to pass quickly through this dungeon while dodging the beams they emit. Here is a tip for you: stand directly under them to keep you safe. After passing the last barrier, there is a Site of Grace where you can take a breath. After resting, continue forward until you enter the end of Fissure Depths Site of Grace. You need to be mentally prepared - because the next is a very difficult boss station. On the huge stone coffin, you need to touch two objects to enter Putrescent Knight's arena - the statue head at the front hanging over the gigantic pit and the curved horns of the statue. This strange boss will jump directly from the horse to attack you, and the horse that looks like it has melted will also attack you. So you need to be prepared to defend from two different angles. If you are not prepared in DLC, this will be a tough battle, but fortunately, the rewards are relatively rich. Putrescent Knight is actually very important in your later stages of the game, as you can complete Thiollier's quest by defeating him, so you will gain a very useful ally who can help you share some of the burden when you encounter a boss in the later stages. After learning about these two hidden bosses, are you less afraid of bosses in Elden Ring Shadow of The Erdtree DLC? These bosses are not as difficult to fight as you might think. I hope you will have fun in the subsequent games!

In Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree, there are many new items. Like Scadutree Fragment, Revered Spirit Ash can help you increase your game progress. So it is a must-have item in Shadow of the Erdtree. Revered Spirit Ash can help you improve the offensive and defensive capabilities of Spirit Ash, and can make them stronger allies for you. You’ll see this buff in their increased attack and damage resistance. The first thing you need to know is the location of each Revered Spirit Ash. Revered Spirit Ash is divided into four categories according to each region: Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash, Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash, Ruah Ruins Revered Spirit Ash, and Abyssal Wood Revered Spirit Ash. Below is the specific location of each Revered Spirit Ash. Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash The first Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash is located in East of Scorched Ruins. First, you will spawn at Scorched Ruins Site of Grace. Go east and you will find it on a shriveled statue on the plains to the east. The second one is also very easy to find, located on the statue worshiped by the winged people in Ailing Village. The third one is a little further away from the second one, located in the only lake with turtles in Clifford Terminus, and it is also on a statue. The fourth Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash is not as peaceful as the above. You need to climb to the top of Belurat Tower at Main Gate Site of Grace and kill scorpions to pick it up from the shriveled statue. In addition, there will be two other Elden Ring Items on the ground as your reward. The fifth one requires you to defeat some birds first. They are located behind the Private Alter Site of Grace. After killing them, you can move to the next area, where there will be an enemy holding a pot waiting for you. After killing it, you will get the fifth Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash. The sixth one is near Belurat Tower mentioned above. Don’t worry, there is nothing wrong with this bridge, but at the end of it, there will be some very easy to defeat enemies. After killing them, you will see Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash lying peacefully in front of a shriveled statue in front of a tree. The seventh one will appear after you defeat Dancing Lion boss. You can find it in Tower Settlement dungeon Belurat. It is difficult to defeat unless you use skills such as Pierce, Fire, Hemorrhage, Scarlet Rot to suppress it. After you defeat Dancing Lion boss, a Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash will automatically appear in this space. The last Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash may require you to go back a little. Before you enter Ellac River Cave Site of Grace, remember to look around. You can find it on a ledge inside the cave. Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash is easy to find. The first one is in Storehouse on First Floor Site of Grace. There will be a very large specimen statue inside. You can find it easily. In the same place, but on the seventh floor, you will find another specimen statue. The second Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash will also be there. The third one requires you to go out and is located on the edge of a cliff near Moorth Ruins. There you will find a corpse with Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash on it. In addition, this location is also where you go to Bonny Village. Speaking of Bonny Village, the fourth one is here. It is located at the north end of the entire canyon. You may need to walk a long way to find it. Again, it is on a corpse. In the southeast of the ruins, on rivers of Unte, you will find the fifth Scadu Altus Revered Spirit Ash. The last one is also on a corpse in the Village of Flies, or more specifically on the pedestal. Ruah Ruins Revered Spirit Ash You’ll find 4 Ruah Ruins Revered Spirit Ashes in Ruah Ruins, two of which you can get from an enemy holding a pot like Gravesite Plains Revered Spirit Ash - one at the entrance to Ruah Ancient Ruins, and one in front of an elevator near some Spider Scorpions. You’ll find it in Temple of Ruins, south of Ruah Ruins, where there’s a tattered corpse lying on a pedestal. You’ll also find it in Gazebo, where there are a lot of corpses. Abyssal Wood Revered Spirit Ash You’ll find two Abyssal Wood Revered Spirit Ashes after entering Abyssal Wood, one of the new areas with strong eye monsters in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree. The first one is from the large Omen Shaman after you kill it. It gives you some Elden Ring Runes besides Revered Spirit Ash you want. The second one is located on the second floor of Chamber Site of Grace. You need to turn north inside the building to find a chandelier with Abyssal Wood Revered Spirit Ash attached to it. How To Use Revered Spirit Ash? Revered Spirit Ash in Elden Ring works very similarly to Scadutree Fragment in the base game, so the method for using it is similar. First, you need to go to any of the above locations to get yourself Revered Spirit Ash, then you can be teleported to any Site of Grace and can use them to access the menu. In the menu, select Shadow Realm Blessing. After using it, you can summon Spirit Ash in any allowed location to see if they perform as you expect. Although this is not that important in combat, it will give you a little wiggle room and even a sudden comeback. Hopefully, this guide can increase your understanding of Revered Spirit Ash and how to use it wisely. Have fun playing Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC!
