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

Head around the corner and take the elevator down into the depths of the catacombs. Once you reach the bottom, you have a few paths to take. To start, head down the western path, down the stairs, and defeat the Imp waiting for you at the corner juncti

The next room to the south contains a switch at the far end, but don’t be too hasty; there are two Imps in this room . The first is just to your right when you enter, ready to attack. The second one is hanging from the ceiling in the center of the room, likely just out of sight. Be re

The name "The Lands Between" likely refers to the setting being between life and death as when you die, you simply return to the erdtree. The shattering of the Elden Ring represents the first death of a deity. Essentially, the purpose of Fia, The Prince of Death, and the Cursemark of Death is to allow death to happen normally. If such a thing was allowed to happen, there would likely be much fewer lingering souls and undead creatures shambling about, cursing their existe

Head down the passage until you reach the Scarlet Rot pooling in the next hallway. Several skeletal slimes will slowly shamble after you here, so you’ll need to dispatch them – or simply run past them. The boss room is at the far end of this Scarlet Rot passage, but halfway into this room, turn right and head up the thin staircase . Make sure to grab the Ghost Glovewort [4] just by the entra

In the Lands Between setting of Elden Ring , the discipline of Glintstone Sorcery, iconic to the scholars of Raya Lucaria and the enchanted knights of Caria, is flavorful and fascinating. Glintstone, the mineral affixed to most sorcerer staves, is an extraterrestrial substance that fell from the heavens and grows in a life-like fashion in locations like Liurnia of the Lakes and Selia, Town of Sorcery. Most Glintstone Sorcery spells in Elden Ring thematically conjure up outer space phenomena such as shooting stars, distortions of light, storms of ice, crystal ores, and even surges of gravity, while sorcery-wielding creatures like the Crystalians, the Onyx/Alabaster Lords, and Fallingstar Beasts have an alien look. The lore of Elden Ring even talks about how the earliest Glintstone Sorcerers were star-gazing astrologers simply seeking to understand the mysteries of the cosmos, making it all the more tragic that most of the Glintstone Sorcery spells available to players of Elden Ring are focused exclusively around killing enemies. Future DLC, foreshadowed by the most recent 1.07 Patch, could change this state of affa

There aren't a lot of non-damage dealing Glintstone Sorcery spells in Elden Ring , but they do exist, and their effects illustrate the potential of Elden Ring 's Glintstone magic and Staffs to have more non-offensive util

You’ll encounter plenty of sneaky Imps throughout this minor dungeon, so always keep your head on a swivel. Case in point, when you first head down the stairs, an Imp is clinging to the ceiling , ready to drop on you with a vicious att

The Rosebud variant of this Splicer located in the first game has haunting voice lines to match her drug-riddled decrepit appearance. From her voice lines, it appears that she is searching for her daughter that has been turned into a Little Sis

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 Updates 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
