How can I make Elden Ring easier?

Players can make Elden Ring easier by:

• Embrace the fact that they are going to die.
  • Most Elden Ring players will die often. It is expected. Also, dying doesn’t actually affect you that much. Sure, runes are lost, but they can easily be picked up again.
• Try to lure enemies out one by one.
  • Fighting groups of enemies is rarely a good idea. Try attacking one enemy at a time to slowly break up groups.
• Use the game’s multiplayer to your advantage.
  • Get help to beat harder bosses or dungeons. Don’t be afraid to give those fingers a chance!
• Use the open world to level up.

  • Torrent can make running past enemies even easier, especially with its double jump maneuver.
• Knowing that magic and ranged attacks can be incredibly powerful.
  • While melee builds are popular in FromSoftware titles, there’s always the option for a Mage or Archer build.
  • These classes can take down enemies at range and require less dodge/parry skills.
• Farming runes.
  • There are now many video walkthroughs of good rune farming routes. Follow these to level up to a ridiculous level and the game should seem a lot easier.
