How to be Overpowered Early in Elden Ring

A detailed guide on making an OP build early and break Elden Ring.
No NPC kills, no bosses, no combat, only early game areas required.
All footage recorded on the most recent version of Elden Ring on PC.

I'll never get over the fact that not even five minutes from character creation you can go to The Brazil Chest and just go to a super late game area for free.
It's so stupid, but I love it.

I can’t believe I ever doubted this man’s ability to break every game he plays.

PSA: As of the 1.03 patch, the Sword of Night and Flame has been nerfed. It is still good damage and still perfectly viable, but it won’t be as powerful as the video shows.

The amount of ymfah content this game will bring will be amazing

[xboogsx]

Honestly half the reason I was excited for Elden ring was more ymfah content. Feels good.

When killing the dragon another option is to get the Gold-Pickled Fowl Foot ( one can be found early on south of The First Step grace ) for a 30% boost to the initial 50, 000 Runes you get from killing the dragon. It only last 3 minutes so you shouldn't use it till your about to start the final bleeding proc.

Finally, someone who plays the games as they were intended to be played by the devs.

I feel like the final boss of the next souls game should be “ymfah, breaker of souls”

[jackofastora]

What’s amazing about this game is that they expected players to do this, and so they just straight up let you go wherever you want “if you don’t die a million times and rage quit you can have whatever you want from this area.” Is probably what micheal zaki said during development

[bowbro]

another small tip, there's a golden chicken leg on the beach straight left to the beginning of the game, that can up the souls you get from the dragon to ~97k

[TengouX]

I would add to put on a gold-pickled fowl foot item before you kill the dragon for 30% extra runes. There's one to be picked up at the end of the beach right next to the beginning of the game.

[bcwarlock]

If you use a golden pickled fowl foot just after the the dragons health reaches 0 you get 97k runes. You can find one on the coast near the Stranded graveyard location near a waterfall.

Man can't wait for more of your elden ring contents, your creativity with games is just so entertaining to watch, I believe your Elden ring content going to be legendary.

[gabigab]

Ymfah is so kind to show everyone Elden Ring's accessibility feature

[mitchsz]

Just adding something: you can use that item that increases runes gains for a limited amount of time right before you kill the sleeping dragon with bleeding and be even more OP.

.. I’ve found this weapon naturally and have been using it and NEVER knew the night part existed 😂

[HeadRedShot]

i just finished the game spoiler free and i have to say; it's awesome replaying the game now knowing where to get insanely op stuff from the get go

[hugogustafsson]

Remember to pick up golden fowl foot from the beach west in limgrave, youll get around 90k souls from killing the dragon

[thibaulttuscher]

You know one of the things I said to myself when I started playing was : " Damn cant wait for all the Ymfah content that will be brought to us by this game"
