Godrick the Grafted is probably the first big boss you will fight. He has a memorable chimera-like appearance. Found at the end of Stormveil Castle, he is a tough challenge for new players.  Godrick looks like the first boss you meet at the beginning of the game, the Grafted Scion. You will meet another Grafted Scion heading towards the arena where you fight him. Grafting is a term used in horticulture where a different plant is transplanted over another plant and both species grow together. Godrick appears as if he has several of his defeated foes grafted over his body.…

Choosing your build in Elden Ring is tougher than choosing your starter Pokemon. If you increase your strength, you can wield Huge Great swords, like Guts from Berserk or Cloud from Final Fantasy. Work on your intelligence and you become a wizard like Gandalf or Harry Potter. Master your dexterity and you can become a Katana-wielding samurai, with assassin-Esque badass moves.  If you have decided to work on your dexterity, we will explain what it exactly does in the Elden Ring. Dexterity is one of the main stats in Elden Ring. In common terms, dexterity means skills with hands. These…

Ever wondered why the enemies you attack don’t flinch while you get staggered every time your foes touch you. The stat that determines you standing your ground is called Poise.  Poise reacts with every attack you take, and you are going to get a lot of hit. If you have bosses or enemies fall to their knees or on the ground, it’s because you depleted their poise.  How Does Poise Work? Poise is a very complex stat in the Elden Ring determined by armor. Poise influences resistance against staggering during combat, among some other things. Poise also has different effects…

Without upgrading your weapons (armaments) you will be stuck dealing a minuscule amount of damage to stronger enemies. If you want to grasp how to upgrade weapons in Elden Ring, this is a guide for you.  As you might have noticed, there are two kinds of weapons. The regular kind and the unique ones. Unique weapons are ones that bosses or NPCs drop. These two categories use different upgrade materials and have different upgrade paths.

Rebirth or re-specing is a game mechanic used to reset the stat allocation of your character in the Elden Ring.

Armor cannot be upgraded at all in the Elden Ring. All armor you find is already ready to use without having to upgrade. Closest you can get to upgrading your armor is completing its whole set. When you equip a full set of particular armor it will boost resistance to certain types of damage in the game.  Rather, you can upgrade shields in Elden Ring. But shields are classified as a weapon and are upgraded similarly to the weapons. You can even choose a talisman with better shielding ability to improve your resistance further. In addition, you can even try different…

Magic caster builds are one of the most interesting builds in the Elden Ring. Incantations are forms of magic that need a sacred seal equipped for you to cast them. These spells range from helpful chants to devastating explosions. Elden Ring has a plethora of Incantations, totaling more than 100. This count does not include the 70 more sorcery spells.
