Since release Elden Ring It’s been a few weeks now and gamers have already discovered a PvP build that guarantees victory in most invasions. With the help of certain weapons and magic, players will apply debuffs to enemies over and over once more, killing them in moments. But that’s not all – if you do it right, you can lock your character in animation, so it’s impossible to kill you.
Well, or pretend to be an NPC, as one redditor did.
The build is called Deathblight and relies on two things in the game: the Eclipse Shotel weapon and the Deadly Sin of Fire magic. The Ashes of War art unlocks the Death Flame move, which inflicts a death effect on enemies. In fact, this is an analogue of poisoning, which increases in the case of repeated exposure – when it is filled, it instantly kills. Similar effects might be seen with some enemies during the game, such as basilisks.
If you cross the “Flame of Death” with the attack “The Deadly Sin of Fire” – the latter normally sets the character on fire, then a permanent deadly area effect is created while the spell is in effect. In this state, the player just needs to approach the enemy and quickly pump him with a debuff.
The discovery of this combination resulted in regular invasions, where the intruder runs following another player until the latter dies. At the same time, resistance is practically useless. Redditor TeenyTinyWyvern shared a video in which he demonstrated how he becomes a victim of such an attack.
As noted by the gamer, he managed to escape only when another gamer invaded, which diverted the attention of the attacker.
So remember, if you turn on PvP, you can also become a victim of such an invasion. If pressed, then in extreme cases, leave the game.
