Elden Ring DLC Can Make Sorcery More Than Just Murder

The damage-free Sorcery spells listed above prove FromSoftware can add non-combat Glintstone Sorcery spells to Elden Ring 's DLC without infringing on the healing and protection niche of Incantations. New Selian Night Sorceries (similar to the spells hidden behind Elden Ring 's Mirage Rise Puzzle ) could let players befuddle in both PvE and PvP (a group invisibility spell, a spell like the Shadow Bait Incantation that summons decoys, etc.) Alternately, Elden Ring developers could homage the astrological themes of Glintstone Sorcery by introducing spells that let players gather information (for instance, a spell that causes concealed enemies to light up in silhouet


The Helphen's Steeple Greatsword, dropped by a Tibia Mariner enemy in Elden Ring 's Mountaintops of the Giants area , is a dark, barbed long-sword designed to be wielded by spell-sword character builds in Elden Ring . The Ruinous Ghostflame skill of this weapon envelopes the blade in a shroud of ghostly flame that deals extra damage and inflicts the Frostbite status effect. The 1.07 patch increased the damage, duration, and poise attrition granted by this skill while also shortening its recovery time, making the sinister-looking Helphen's Steeple a much more viable weapon for Elden Ring players who want to cosplay cursed sword-wielding fictional characters like Elric of Melniboné, wielder of Stormbringer, or Arthas Menethil from Warcraft, wielder of Frostmou

The school Night Sorceries, associated with the abandoned town of Selia, contains a niche defensive spell called Eternal Darkness (no relation to the Nintendo's Eternal Darkness , a GameCube survival horror game), which summons a black hole that sucks in magic projectiles. Two other non-damaging Night Sorceries, Unseen Blade and Unseen Form, respectively let Tarnished player characters turn their weapons and bodies invisi


The world of Elden Ring is at a standstill when your journey begins. The Elden Ring has been broken into fragments, and without the Rune of Death, people in the Lands between are immortal. The demigods have gathered pieces of the Elden Ring and, after years of war, have given up on fighting. Instead, they huddle in their corner of the Lands Between and protect the piece they have already obtained. The land has been destroyed because of the war, and with no one making any moves, the Erdtree has called the tarnished back to the land to cause a cha


The Onyx Lord's Greatsword, dropped by an Onyx Lord boss in the Sealed Tunnel dungeons of Limgrave, is a slashing weapon empowered by Intelligence and imbued with purple-hued gravitational magic that does extra damage to alien entities like the Fallingstar Beast or Astel, Naturalborn of the Void. The signature skill of the Onyx Lord's Greatsword, Onyx Lord's Repulsion, generates a damaging shockwave of purple energy that blasts foes away from the Tarnished player character. In earlier versions, this special attack granted no extra poise for Elden Ring players during casting, making it easy for enemies to interrupt and stun players trying to use this move. The Patch 1.07 updates dramatically increased the repulse effect and poise bonus of the Onyx Lord's Repulsion move, making the Onyx Lord's Greatsword much more useful for its intended purpose of crowd control during com


This underrated Elden Ring Patch Notes Ring weapon seems to be a direct shout-out to Pinwheel, an eerie (but easy to defeat) boss found in the skeleton-infested Catacombs area of Dark Souls . Like the Family Heads flail, Pinwheel has three masked heads modeled after a family unit and fights by summoning projectiles of f

In the current version of **Elden Ring ** , Glintstone Sorcery spells, a school of magic empowered by a character's Intelligence, is primarily used for damaging enemies, in contrast to Faith-empowered Incantation magic and its complement of healing and protection spells. Future DLC for Elden Ring , which will likely be announced before the end of the year, holds the potential to expand the tool kit of Sorcerer characters by introducing more Glintstone Sorcery Spells with non-combat utility. Such changes, besides making Elden Ring more fun, would also bring the mechanical effects of Glintstone Sorcery more in line with its narrative presentation as an academic magic practiced by scholars and seekers of knowle
