Avoiding non-physical damage in Elden Ring
If you’re interested in avoiding non-physical damage in Elden Ring, you should know that the default damage type is standard. All physical damage will be calculated using this type of damage, regardless of how you deal it. Axes, for example, are the only weapons that deal standard damage. But many swords have attacks that are similar to standard damage. Heavy armors can be used against swords and provide excellent protection from standard damage.
Another way to avoid non-physical damage in Elden Ring is to use weapons that have a damage boost. Damage boosts are displayed as a four finger icon with an upward arrow. Your character will also glow slightly when you use them. You can also use two-handed weapons for this purpose, although you will have to set aside your shield. This way, you can use the damage boost without having to worry about breaking your shield.
Using the Pearldrake Talisman to negate non-physical damage
One of the most important talismans in the Elder Ring is the Pearldrake. This talisman gives your character 20% total HP and can be used to negate non-physical damage from enemies. It also increases the maximum equipment load and is useful when tackling tough bosses. You can obtain a Pearldrake Talisman by killing Nephali in Roundtable Hold, or Godrick the Grafted. Another good talisman is the Dragoncrest Greatshield. It has a cooldown, but can help your character a lot when it comes to combat.
The Dragoncrest Greatshield talisman also has a similar effect but offers non-physical damage negation. However, if you want to use the Dragoncrest Shield talisman, you need to collect both halves of the Haligtree Medallions. This way, you will have a better chance of surviving tougher bosses and making it to the end of the game.
Using the Giant-Crusher weapon
The Giant-Crusher is a colossal weapon in the Elden Ring. It is a massive boulder that was used during the War Against the Giants to deal a large amount of physical damage. Using it on enemies has a few advantages, the first being that it scales in strength. You will be able to land massive melee attacks with it, while the second is that it’s easy to traverse.
While a Giant-Crusher is not a physical weapon, its bolstering power is impressive. If you’re using it for non-physical damage, make sure to always keep your HP full. This talisman will allow you to apply more Ashes of War and bolster the weapon. Also, using it on enemies will boost your damage.
Using the Banished Knight’s Halberd
If you’re interested in using the Banished Knight’s Halberd to deal non-physical damage, this guide is for you. Halberds are great weapons in the Elden Ring, and they’re also quite effective in swing attacks. They can help you in a variety of scenarios, but not all are capable of taking down targes. Getting the best one is important, so you can make the most of it in a variety of scenarios.
In the early game, a meteorite staff is a good choice. During the mid-game, a Carian Regal Scepter should be used instead. This staff will boost sorcery damage the best and requires 60 Intelligence to use properly. Regardless of your build, using the Carian Regal Scepter will help you get insane damage and make your Elden Ring stronger.
