The souls-like genre is known for its huge variety of weapons and spells, andElden Ringis no different. No matter how many times fans replay these types of game, there are always more things for them to play around with. This library of gameplay style greatly serves the PVP area, where it tends to be colorful with many unique builds and styles.
InElden Ring, the introduction of the Ashes of War is certainly a welcome one. It adds richness to the already-rich gameplay and gives the game’s combat more depth. For example, theAsh of War: Hoarfrost Stompallows any melee weapon to create a decent AoE ice field that explodes, dealing massive damage in the process. It also adds more passive effects to the weapon on which it is equipped.
