FromSoftware games, includingElden Ring, boast a robust multiplayer component that enables fans to engage in both PvP and PvE. The mode is so popular that entire etiquette systems have been formed for those looking to engage in some jolly cooperation.

All the world’s a battlefield in Elden Ring.

Established since the Souls games, every FromSoftware title, aside fromSekiro, has had a multiplayer mode. While most tend to stick to a classic face-off, others tend to take a more stealthy approach. The same is true forElden Ring, and the game even supplies an item that helps with some devious schemes.

Elden Ring’s PvP Items Can Help Players Get the Drop on Invaders or Targets

Some unofficial rules in PvP forSoulsbornetitles are bowing before beginning, offering people prep time for buffs, or not healing mid-combat. These are just courtesies, though, and there’s no reason to stick to them. Nothing is stopping a player from trying to ambush invaders or targets through stealth either, and that’s exactly what one player did using a special item.

Redditor Shadow_9207 posted a video of their invasion into a world with three other players. The odds were stacked against them,so the approach had to be strategic. The Mountaintops of the Giants are filled with ephemeral deer, and the invader takes on the shape of this creature by using the Mimic’s Veil.

This item allows players to take on the appearance of a random world object, helping hide their presence. It’s not foolproof, and the keen eye can spot such a disguise, but it appears to have worked for our hero. Taking the form of a ghostly deer, they creep up behind the trio before using the Bloodboon Ritual skill with Mohgwyn’s Sacred Spear to severely bleed and kill all three.

Shadow of the Erdtree will change PvP encounters.

The Mimic’s Veil item is one of many items that allow players to gain an advantage in their game. It can be found on the second floor of the fortress with the Grafted Scion in Stormveil Castle. You’ll have to face a Banished Knight to access the chest with the item.

Shadow of the Erdtreewill only be accessible for players who have completed Mohgwyn Palace, so the caliber of players entering PvP in DLC locations is going to be high. Expect to fight mostly late-game builds against players who have had time to understand their strengths and weaknesses.

The DLC is claimed to be the largest expansion that FromSoftware has ever worked on. With a map the size of Limgrave, the starting area ofElden Ring, players have a lot to explore to find the path of Miquella and what he has planned in the Land of Shadow.

Gaming was one of my earliest passions then along came writing, and here we are. I’ve been in the content creation space for several years now and as gamer for even longer. From understanding the complexities of a multilayer narrative to the simply joy of “big gun go boom”, my goal is to capture all the emotions in between and put them down in an engaging manner.
