In a game as massive as Elden Ring, there are any number of ways to build one’s character and engage the many powerful boss enemies that inhabit The Lands Between. For most of the game, one really can’t go wrong with how they develop their character, but that may not be entirely true when it comes time to confront the final few bosses near the end. Unless one possesses truly top-tier skills, this is probably the time to re-spec into a more-focused build capable of using one’s loadout to the fullest. There are many of these to choose from of course, but one that focuses on bleed is probably the most effective for struggling players. So, let’s get into it.

As the name implies, the idea of a bleed build is to inflict as much blood loss damage as possible as quickly as possible. Aside from a handful of enemies and bosses, just about everything in Elden Ring is susceptible to this which makes it very easy to get a lot of bonus damage when engaging otherwise beefy enemies. Many weapons can inflict blood loss, including the samurai starter weapon: the Uchigatana . Some are better at this than others though, so that'll be the first thing to take care of after doing a character re-spec.


Now for some big-brain risky moves. Those who have ventured a bit into Agheel Lake will have been dissuaded by the nasty dragon who wants to use them as a landing pad. This inopportune moment can be turned into an advantage; players simply need to lure the dragon, Agheel, into crabs and other enemies within the l

The Starscourge Greatsword and Lion Greatbow are each rewards for trading in Radahn's Remembrance, but you can only do this once per Remembrance. Head to a Walking Mausoleum to duplicate the Remembrance of the Starscourge so you can get both of these weapons in a single playthrough.


To do that, some grinding and Rune farming are necessary to purchase some levels from Melina . Thankfully, Limgrave has plenty of farming spots that are both accessible and yield decent amounts of Runes. Head on over to these locations and follow the instructi
