<br>A key part of Elden Ring 's backstory is the fate of the Tarnished, the lineage of humans the player's character belongs to. Near the height of the Golden Order - the divinely-inspired monarchy which rules over the Lands Between's denizens - Elden Ring 's Queen Marika the Eternal banished a number of her subjects from her realm, stripping away the golden Grace that had once connected these individuals to the power and vitality of the Erdtree. These Tarnished people departed the Lands Between, embarking on a long voyage to other lands, carving out new, lesser lives for themselves, until the guidance of Grace returned and called them to the Lands Between once more.

" __ This piece of lore suggests the Land of Reeds, a country outside of the Lands Between, is a fantastical version of Warring States-era Japan, right down to the brutal wars of royal succession fought between rival clans. Certain sanguine weapons such as Elden Ring 's Rivers of Blood katana and Eleanora's Poleblade also suggest many of the warriors in the Land of Reeds have been corrupted by the rampant use of blood magic bestowed upon them by the Outer God known as the Formless Mother.

Farming rare weapons is ultimately a matter of luck since a 10% drop rate doesn't necessarily mean that players will find one for every ten enemies they kill. When these drop rates drop as low as 1%, this randomness can often feel unfair, as some players may get unlucky and have to farm hundreds of enemies while others may get on their first or second kill. The most important aspects of getting a rare drop are finding the most optimal farming location in Elden Ring , which includes selecting the best Site of Grace to reset enemies and increasing the drop rate by any me
