Elden Ring Side Quests for dummies: Side Quests You Need to do - Elden Ring PS5 Gameplay

When we published a beginners tips guide to #EldenRing we didn’t realise that for many new players, our tips weren’t beginner enough. So, we made Elden Ring for Dummies - an in-depth Elden Ring explainer covering attributes, levelling, weapon scaling, equip loads and more. Then we made an Elden Ring Combat For Dummies video, covering the basics of fighting, AND a guide to the locations of the Lands Between and what order you should tackle them in. Now, we're taking on side quests - how do you find them, how do you complete them, and which ones do we think are worth your time? Let Aoife Wilson be your helper and guide once again, and do let us know if you have any further questions in the comments! #Eurogamer #EldenRingforDummies

The Elden Ring for Dummies series is perfect, much appreciated 🙏🏻

[Doctor_Martain]

As a newbie I'll be honest without these videos I'd be lost. Lvl 50 and I have no idea what's going on, but at least there's these bits of guidance to help.

I'm in love with this game... played through it as a strength character, immediately after beating it I started a new Black Flame / Scythe faith build, I'm just addicted to it and even when I have the urge to play something else, I only get to the main menu and just want to close it and go back to Elden... this game is monumentally fun, mysterious, and addictive... I went from hating the controls and felt like it was clunky and almost quit the game, now it feels so smooth and second nature. As soon as I finally have had enough of Elden Ring, I'm going to finally try all the other Souls games... starting with either Bloodborne or DS3 then Sekiro... my summer for gaming is booked.

Great stuff. Remember that FS continues to have obscure npc quests so that the community comes together to figure it out and it's great for content creators. They really give back to fans. I recommend looking up guides that just give objective lists instead of details. That's about as spoiler free as it can get. Guides that explain how Soulsborne games mechanics work are very important to beginners. We welcome you all.

I love how with the Ranni questline she didn't actually describe the events and lore of it, just told you how you do the stuff in it along with some background on them.

[nickjones]

Something I both love and hate about From Software games, how the hell do people figure this stuff out in the first place? 😹

[ronalddelgados]

I've never played a Dark Souls game before. 80 hours already on this fantastic game! Thanks for the guide!

[PranavanathanYoganathan]

Thank you so much for this series on Elden Ring for Dummies! It's my first FromSoft game and it has been really helpful.

[cathallynch]

I don't agree with FromSoft hiding some of their best content behind such obscure questlines, making us use online guides and basically spoil it for ourselves.

Great video Aoife! Just a little tip if it's easier than going through Nokron you can get to the Deeproot Depths through an illusory wall near the Three Fingers. There's a couple more steps to Dung Eaters quest if you made friends with Blackguard, just have to talk to him and reload the area a couple of time before Dung Eater will invade you

[ChadKenova]

I hopelessly addicted to elden ring but i forget where I’m going all the time. Plus I forgot who i talked to so stuff like this is a godsend.

[cheefussmith]

Best to meet Blaidd prior to 3 sisters. He’s the howling in mist wood at start of game and you’re supposed to help him kill a guy

[beckstheimpatient]

I love that you went for THAT armour for the video. A spectacularly pleasant experience. I'm cutting that questline VERY short as soon as I start NG+ :))

[badger_fudge]

Thank you for this video! From Soft side quests always feel a little hard to track down and the huge open world hasn't made it any easier to know where to go next. A lot of good info here and definitely helpful!

[captainlovebug]

So I've heard rumors about a secret 7th ending. And I think I've worked out how to get it if it exists. I believe it involves the frenzied flame, millicent, and Ranni's quest. I'm going to go for it in NG+ And see if it actually works!

[krackenkiller]

Favorite mini side quest (minor spoiler) reuniting the jellyfish summon with their sister. Made me so happy

[lucyfrye]

My favorite side quest was killing the blacksmith in roundtable hold and freeing the new smith in that stealth mission.

[TheWindwall]

Level 150 at 130 hours in, and wrapping up as many missing achievements as possible before finishing my "as close to 100% as possible" playthrough. With all my knowledge, I find all the Eurogamer team's videos awesome, and a joy to watch through. Giving people good advice and amazing Lore. Well done on you all!

[DJTrek]

Awesome guide. Easy to follow, detailed and not too much fluff. Could listen to this lady speak about anything in that accent 😉

[jakestewart]

Fingers down the best elden ring video I've seen to date well done keep up the good work 👏 👍
