When used, the dung pies inflict the Toxic status on the enemy, but also on the player. This makes using them a dangerous double-edged sword.

" Aside from hinting at Marika's active role in the murder of her own son, these weapon/armor descriptions imply that Marika herself was one of the Numen, and first came to the Lands Between from the country (or world) where the Numen dwelled. There are no clues in the story or endings of **Elden Ring ** __ about what the Lands of the Numen look like or what culture the Numen possess. If Queen Marika and her Black Knife cohorts are typical of their people, though, the Numen seem to be very ambitious and willing to catastrophically meddle in the affairs of both humans and g   The open world of **Elden Ring ** is large - larger than the worlds of every other FromSoftware RPG to date. As players steer their Tarnished characters across the continent known as the Lands Between, they can visit beautiful forests, mist-veiled lakes, golden plateaus, ice-swept mountaintops, underground cities, and hell-scapes of fungal rot. The Lands Between, however, is just one continent upon a larger planet. This begs the question; what exactly are the Lands Between... betw   When the player encounters Aldrich, the being engages in battle by manifesting powers it absorbed from Gwyndolin. Now nothing more than an amorphous black mass with an all-consuming hunger for powerful beings, Aldrich definitely stands as one of Dark Souls III's most horrific entit   Several bosses in **Elden Ring ** make little to no effort to hide their evil nature and deserve their eventual fate at the hands of the Tarnished.

After the Long March of the Tarnished came to an end, Godfrey divested himself of kingship, becoming a simple warrior once mor   These broken weapons are absolute jokes, with appalling stats. While the Straight Sword can be used to make more powerful weapons, it's basically trash on its own. This has made challenge runs with only the starting equipment one of the most popular in the series. It's a joke the players play on themselves, but it's still great at giving them the challenge they cr   While the actual battle may not be particularly memorable, Wonir is introduced via a very effective jumpscare.
