Alright, listen up, y’all. We gonna talk about this Elden Ring thing, and that bleed ash of war, whatever that means. My grandkids keep yellin’ about it, so I figured, why not? Can’t be harder than milkin’ a cow, right?
So, first off, they say you gotta find these ashes. Sounds dusty to me. Like somethin’ you’d find under the bed after a month of not sweepin’. Anyways, they say you gotta beat up some bad guys or buy ’em from them sneaky merchants. Merchants, always tryin’ to make a quick buck, just like ol’ man Fitzwilliam down at the market.
Now, these ashes, they ain’t just for show, you see. You slap ’em on your weapons, like you’d put butter on a biscuit. Makes ’em stronger, or somethin’. My grandson, he keeps yellin’ about “bleed.” Said it makes the bad guys lose their, uh, their “vital fluids.” Sounds messy to me, but hey, whatever works, right?
They say you gotta go to a “site of grace.” Sounds fancy, like some church picnic. But from what I gather, it’s just a place to rest your weary bones and mess with your weapons. You pick your weapon, then you slap on that ash, like you’re puttin’ a patch on a torn pair of overalls. Easy peasy. My grandson, he’s always fussin’ over stats and scalin’. Says you gotta make sure the weapon and the ash, they like each other. Sounds like a marriage to me, all that compatibility stuff.
- Findin’ the ashes: Beat up bad guys, find ’em layin’ around, or buy ’em. Simple as that.
- Slappin’ ’em on: Go to that grace place, pick your weapon, stick the ash on it. Not rocket science, folks.
- Bleedin’ the bad guys: That’s the whole point, ain’t it? Make them lose their, you know, “vital fluids.” The more, the better.
Now, some weapons, they already come with that bleed stuff. Like them claws you find in that Storm-whatever castle. My grandson says they work real good. But if you ain’t got one of them fancy weapons, you gotta use them ashes. There’s all sorts of ’em, too. Wild strikes, somethin’ about roarin’, pokin’ ’em more than once, whacking ’em twice… sounds like a bar fight to me.
And be careful, y’all! Don’t go sellin’ your weapons without thinkin’ first! My grandson, he lost some good ash that way. Sold a weapon, poof, gone! Just like that time he lent his favorite fishing rod to Billy-Bob and never saw it again. Learn from his mistakes, I say.
One of them ashes, the “Bloody Slash” one, they say you gotta go to some fort, Fort Haight or somethin’. And there’s this knight, all armored up and thinkin’ he’s hot stuff. You gotta give him a good whuppin’, then he’ll drop that ash. Just like when you gotta chase a chicken around the yard to get it back in the coop. Persistence is key, y’all.
So, that’s the gist of it. Find the ashes, stick ‘em on your weapons, and make them bad guys bleed. It ain’t as complicated as my grandson makes it out to be. Just good ol’ fashioned whuppin’ with a little extra somethin’ somethin’.
And remember, kids, don’t go believin’ everything them fancy folks on the internet say. Sometimes, a good ol’ stick is all you need. But if you wanna play this Elden Ring thing, well, then go find them ashes and get to bleedin’!
Important Note: Don’t lose yer weapons, y’hear? Keep track of ‘em like you would your dentures at a family reunion.
