Elden Ring has a new strategy for farming runes that focuses on getting into seemingly inaccessible parts of the map until your opponent dies or loses interest and leaves Elden Ring Runes. Players who would like a classic PvP fight are discovering new ways to fight back. The results are fun and shocking, but will they be enough to stem the tide of Elden Ring's latest exploit?
There are few things gamers enjoy more than not playing, but still being rewarded for it. AFK farms are very popular and Elden Ring, it turns out, is not exempt from. There are a lot of players who have been nabbed into PvP invasions where their opponents are MIA, and it's pissing them off. Many players are hopeful that developer FromSoftware will fix the flaw However, some players are making matters their own hands.
So how does Elden Ring's most recent AFK rune farm operate? The most well-known variant involves heading toward the First Step spawn where the game begins, and going towards another cliff. Then, by using their mount Torrent players are able to double jump to an even lower ledge. They then utilize Furlcalling Finger Remedy followed by Taunter's Tongue in order to lure enemies into their game. They also maintain their White Cipher Ring turned on to summon hunters to fight for their cause. In the end, most players either) quit because they are unable to find the AFK famer,) die trying to reach them from the edge of the cliff or) die by one of the allied hunters.
Another method of attack involves using Torrent to climb the highest building in the Site of Grace. Since mounts cannot be summoned until PvP battles begin which makes them unreachable by anyone else. For additional security, some AFK rune farmers also like to use the Mimic Veil in order to turn into an object that opponents cannot auto-target to secure. As one would expect, YouTube is already flush with videos called things like "NEW 100 MILLION RUNE AFK FARM IN ELDEN RING!" and propagators of this technique claim they've managed to produce more than a million runes per hour. Others suggest that the rate even at extremely high amounts, is around 100,000. But free runes is free runes, and every day more and more players are seeking to get theirs.
As the game is becoming more famous and more well-known, there are ways to combat it. In the Elden Ring Subreddit has been filling up with brief clips of players employing creative new strategies to kill those AFK farmers. One method is to leap off the cliff , and using the Agheel's Fire in mid-air in order to change into dragons to kill them while coming downwards. It's also possible to employ ballistas in order to throw them off the edge or kill them outright. It is also possible to use the Hand of Malenia katana has also been successful. Due to its long length and unique swinging animations players can utilize it to get to the ledge by themselves, without the need for Torrent.
As GamesRader points out the effect of these new strategies is that in some cases , it's actually the AFK farmers that are being used for farming. "With my Dragon Breath strat and the physick , I'm keeping all the souls , and you don't need to be taking them out each when I die, after having killed the person who was hosting it," wrote one player on the subreddit. "Have 50+ rune arcs just this morning from my assaults there are many people trying this exploit and you'll be able to fill your inventory with arcs , if you'd like."
Others have begun thinking about thinking outside of the box to best place to buy elden ring items. "I've been doing AFK'ing with these guys," wrote another player on the subreddit. "I throw on a good movie or some humorous YouTube videos and wait till I feel the sound of my free Rune Arc." Elden Ring players are not committed if they aren't.
