Fire ring
I’m attempting to undergo and solve a number of the most difficult and confusing things I’ve encountered during my playthrough of Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree, and now I’m turning my attention to an area that has puzzled me for a very long time: the doorway to the Church District in Shadow Keep. You can get there by following a tunnel from the south, however the flooded zone will immediately kill you with one improper step or jump.
Elden Ring has at all times had dangerous platforming segments, but most of them are rigorously calculated falls or smaller jumps. Here you wish the running jump, which requires you to sprint and jump at the identical time, which is sort of difficult for the controller since sprinting is mapped to O/B, and there is a reason you do not do that always. But that single jump is hidden the whole north and northeast the map, so yes, that is super necessary.
This is the trail you’re taking. Start by dropping down onto the log to your right and get to the primary roof. I’ll mark the 2 primary places where it’s worthwhile to use a running jump to get ahead quite than simply a standard jump:
Church district
The biggest hurdle for a lot of will likely be the primary jump, where you might have to leap from considered one of the small arches and land on the narrow ledge on the opposite side. This is a standard jump, not a torrent jump, to be clear, and you’ll have a much Blood stains there and the “Jump!” messages may appear to be a troll. But you wish a run-up.
I’m not kidding after I say that these individual jumps probably open up 20% of the map. From the purpose where you jump down from the roof where the last arrow is, you’ll be able to drain the whole church area so that you do not have to undergo it again, where you will find two minibosses and a few precious items. It also gives you access to the back a part of Shadow Keep which you can’t reach otherwise. This immediately puts you shut to 2 (very hard) bosses, a zone with five Scadutree fragments within the north and the whole northeast of the map through a secret entrance, but that is an article for an additional day.
So, possibly a few of you’ll be able to understand this straight away, nevertheless it took me way too long to totally understand which jump to make, especially since there have been hardly any places where you only needed to jump to get there. Hope this helped. Enjoy an enormous chunk of the map.
