Elden Ring simply bought a serious patch alongside its new “Tarnished Version,” an up to date model of the sport for Nintendo Change 2 which you can get on each different platform with a $5 improve. You don’t must pay cash for the varied buffs and nerfs within the patch, however the paid improve does get you some horse cosmetics and 4 new units of armor in your character, together with a set each impressed by, and dropped by, a well-recognized face from, of all issues, 2014’s Darkish Souls 2.
Two of the brand new armor units are connected to 2 of the brand new beginning lessons within the sport, the Heavy Knight and the Idus Knight. The opposite two are discovered on this planet, and one is within the arms of a personality named Knight Leontiel. Knight Leontiel is a newly added invader who exhibits up in Starscourge Radahn’s battle area after he’s defeated. You’ll be able to encounter her by operating north from the Web site of Grace and persevering with towards the catacombs till you’re robotically dismounted out of your horse, and he or she invades.
She’s not too robust to beat, particularly should you’ve already completed the sport and/or its Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, and the rewards are price it. You get her full set of armor: her Greatsword, legs, chest, helm, and greaves. It seems to be like this:
So who’s Leontiel? Properly, nobody, however should you’ve performed Darkish Souls 2, you may recall a Lucetiel of Mirrah who wore one thing awfully just like this. Lucatiel wears a toreador outfit and hat just like this set, wields a greatsword, and even has a masks connected to her hat identical to this one. It’s not clear why her identify is barely completely different in Elden Ring, though it’s pretty apparent that that’s who that is presupposed to invoke. Actually, it’s virtually just a little unhappy. In Darkish Souls 2, she asks the participant to recollect her identify earlier than she goes Hole, as a result of she might not keep in mind it herself. No matter circumstances put her into Elden Ring, her identify wasn’t precisely remembered. Tragedy!
What I like most about this set is its L2 skill. Leontiel has a greatsword, which doesn’t actually make a lot room for carrying a defend alongside, however its L2 allows you to use her cape like a bullfighter, and also you’ll flourish it as you assault. Somebody’s already proven off the complete set’s capabilities towards none apart from Malenia, Blade of Miquella:
What’s even cooler is that should you haven’t crushed Radahn but, her summon signal will seem with all of the others, and you’ll name on her to help in battle earlier than you kick her ass your self and take her sword and hat. All’s honest in battle and battle, I suppose.
Bear in mind, should you’re having hassle discovering Leontiel, you do must have bought the Tarnished Version DLC should you don’t already personal it. Change 2 gamers could have Leontiel baked in robotically, as they’re already on the Tarnished Version. Additionally, remember that should you’ve already reached close to the top of Elden Ring and brought an motion that dramatically adjustments Leyndell’s entire vibe (you realize the one), then you definately gained’t be capable to get the fourth and ultimate set of armor: the Damaged Golden Masks set.
