I absolutely love online lunatics like this (and also they have way too much time on their hands 😅). Gaming wouldn’t be the same without 'em.

The main purpose of the online feature is so that other people can invade your games to gank you. For me that’s the epitome of games to avoid.

I think people straight up can’t invade you in ER if you aren’t either doing multiplayer or used the “I want invaders” item.

Yeah, no. The main point of the multi-player is to get help from allies. It’s only if you get that help that anyone can invade your game in Elden Ring

Literally not, how Elden Ring multiplayer works.

  1. You can’t invade solo host unless they specifically use an item for it

  2. If you are coop you open yourself up for invasions and since a session has a 4 player limit you’re always either in the majority (aka ganking) or on even grounds if you decide to only summon 1 friend and let the invader live long enough for another to show up. If you invade you are pretty much always going to be in a 1v3 situation.

What’s a drip?

Edit: Nevermind, I looked it up…

It’s a slang word to mean the outfit or accessories. I believe, it started out regionally, but it’s been popular with the current teenager generation.

As well as several generations of teenagers before the current one.

In the game, there are stones that you can find, and when you use them, they say something. There’s no voice chat in the games, so these can be used to communicate

Your character doesn’t speak per say, so you usually are limited to gestures for interacting with other players.

The stone refers to a series of items thatve been around since dark souls 1 where you drop a magic stone and a voice comes out saying the line. In dark souls 1 and some others it was a rock you dropped and it broke open making sound, so the “stone” term stuck.

In elden ring it’s called a “prattling pate: ‘voice line here’”. Your character blows into it like a flute kinda and the line is spoken.

Basically the guy showed up, said “damn ur fashion is on point” then left :)

Sometimes I’ll rename myself “Free XP Weekend” and invade people and then just jump off a cliff or let them wreck me. For free XP.
