This episode we go a bit longer and focus on taking on everything remaining in Limgrave, including the Fringefolk Hero's grave which has one of the best ash summons, and a few other dungeons here and there. We also continue Alexanders's quest line this episode.
Hey cowboy I beat godrick activated the rune and nephali was there at the boss fight but now she isn’t at round table hold? Any ideas on where she could be?
Take your time my dude. Episode quality is at the highest. Those impatient folks seem to not understand that juggling family, work, and everything else takes time and attention if done properly. Keep up the great work, it is much appreciated
Yeah most definitely agree, once he explained that it would be one per day I was totally fine with it, at least he’s giving us a detailed walk through, props to Cowboy for that👏
Came here with the same intentions. I've been watching cowboy's YT channel since DS1, and he's funny, informative, and has great quality content. Tune out negativity, and do not let the internet EpicNameBro you to the point you feel you need to do other things. You are in the top tier of content creators for this genre!
I agree but at first I was on pace with him in this walkthrough series now I’m past Liurnia and I kinda want him to catch up cause I’m seeing so much stuff I missed in his videos 😭
2 years later and I still love these guides. Always take your time man! Do what works for you, people will keep coming around. There are actually very few quality "walkthrough" guides on YT. Super appreciation for you doing these. Would be cool to see you do another series, maybe full dex or mage walkthrough. This one is golden.
Low-key kind of a crazy ask.. this walk-through is to make it easy to get through the game and took a lot of time to make I'm sure could do a let's play in that category but a walk-through would be tough
Producing a walkthrough of this quality while being a dad is so impressive. Take your time, man. Your subscribers are patient and we appreciate the work that you do,
32:56 Tip for destroying the chariot, shoot your arrow when he hit the wall you're on, when you see your screen shaking release your trigger. Got it first try this way
Thanks for the tip! Just worked for me first try. 4/25/22. Fired the bolt (at the middle pot) the minute the wall shook from the chariot hitting near me. It landed right on the chariot.
Demon's Souls was my first From game. Now going through Elden Ring with the help of your walkthroughs is making the experience extremely enjoyable. You put so much work on this that it's only fair I give something back! Plus, your voice is pleasant to listen to - trust me that makes a difference! I'm now in Part 13 and can't wait to get going!
Excellent idea. I've never played a strength build before - I'm going to make a new character to follow along with. My first character has missed so much stuff.
Cowboy, I owe my undying love for Soulslike games to you. No joke, someone bought Sekiro for me for a birthday present. I played it for 2 hours and got massively discouraged. Found your walkthrough...never looked back. I've played every souls, bloodborne, Sekiro, and now Elden Ring because you made it easy for me to catch on how to play these games for myself. Thank you for all the effort you put in. Forever a sub!
I know I’m super late to the party but as a new souls player these videos have been the best thing ever. Please never let anyone make you feel rushed. Quality content doesn’t just happen in the blink of an eye.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos. When I first picked up elden ring, I didn't like it. I thought it was too hard for a casual gamer like myself. Then I came across your video and decided to give it another chance. After watching your guides and using your tips and advice, I absolutely fell in love with the game. So again, thank you very much, Cowboy.
Cowboy, thank you, my man. Coming from a fellow father, I appreciate all that you put into these walk-through videos and with this being my first Souls game. I have been doing my first playthrough with your videos. I would never have gotten anywhere in this game and would have given up if not for you.
I just want to say and I know it’s 2 years later but I have used your guide for Elden ring almost twice now. I just want to say thank you and I am so thankful for the hard work you put into giving us the best and informative walk throughs! I see your hard work and I thank you!
No bull shit Cowboy, I intentionally waited to get this game until you put out a good portion of your walkthroughs. Without your guidance the “Souls Games” wouldn’t be the same for me. You’re doing great my dude!
For anyone finding that Nephellie isn’t appearing in the round table after completing the Godrick fight with her summoned at least once: 1) Fast Travel to Round Table 2) Find Gideon in the main room and exhaust his dialogue. 3) Fast Travel to world 4) Fast Travel back to Round Table 5) Nephellie should appear as seen in video and study doors should be open.
@@ryancurtis6061 If you are referring to the room where you spawn when you fast travel to the round tables, then he isn't there for me... I have yet to find a room with a grace in the round tables other then the room I've mentioned
Without cowboys walkthrough I would still be stuck on margit you have helped me tremendously. This is my first souls game I ever played and it’s been difficult but your vids are so helpful and you explain everything so well. This type of work takes time and we respect you for it because we why you have a kid of your own that you also have to take care of I just want to say thank you for the work you put in 💯
Hey Cowboy. Just sending a shout out. I would not be playing Elden Ring at all without this walkthrough. I really needed some initial direction to get rolling. I beat Godrick without ever summoning in Nepheli Loux, tho I did exhaust her dialogue in the room where she is complimenting the dead guy on the floor. I still got the Arsenal charm when I spoke to her in the hold, so summoning her for the fight seems to not be an absolute requirement. This is just a data point for anyone else who struggles with following basic instructions.
People need to take the time to understand how much work you put in to make such a high quality guide and not the simple stuff most content creators put out. You take the time to really explain things from strats to the worth of items for various builds. Keep doing your thing and proceed at the pace that works best for you. Been an awesome series and look forward to following it through however long it takes.
The tree where Boc is located is at 42:04 where the sheep are, (he will also call out to you). Also, the chariot in the Heroes Grave will drop the Erdtree Greatbow if you manage to hit it with the hanging jars, it took me ages to time it right….
This is already the most detailed walkthrough you've ever done before. It is already an extremely daunting task making sure to 100% cover an open-world game. The daily releases are great, it's showing you're taking the time to ensure everything is getting covered. I like this method of daily videos too. I'm pretty far ahead in elden ring, and I like watching these to go back and collect missing items after I've been through the area once.
@@altijdwat67 Nah the other souls games were fairly linear you could choose to go to other areas sure but you had a predetermined route that you had to take in those areas
2024 and late to the party with this game.. tried it when it came out and was overwhelmed with the info needed, set it aside and I’ve just got into it. A guide of this quality is what’s getting me into this game right now, following this then NG+ on my own, good stuff!
Imagine being someone who watches this man's content to beat this game and still complain that you aren't getting enough episodes.. the man is literally beating thr game for you be patient.
1:40 cowboy my man, dont be sorry. we all love and really appreciate the work you have put in for this game, and bring us just an amazing experience through the walkthrough. Entertaining, descriptive and thorough. i will take quality over quantity any day, and i am sure most folks out here will agree with it too. you take your time, and keep it up!
I’ll admit, I am one of those impatient folks that wants these videos out sooner, but I fully understand that these take time and appreciate it. This is my first play through so having to wait in between allows me to explore ahead and see if I can find everything that you’ll cover in the next video on my own and go back to it again later if I miss anything
There is one thing you missed in Limgrave, an artist shack that will allow you to get the Incantation Scarab. Start at the Murkwater Coast grace, take the nearby spirit spring east to find the Artist Shack grace. Examine the painting and then go to the Seaside Ruins grace (south of Dragon-Burnt Ruins) and go northwest along the cliffs until the guy in the chair spawns. He will disappear after a second and leave behind the Incantation Scarab.
There's an Ash of War Scarab down below the teleporter that's on the bridge to the Limgrave Divine Tower that activates Godrick's Great Rune. Just hop down where the teleporter is and the bridge is broken, down the rubble there will be a corpse with the Scarab Helmet.
@@KING_MALAHK_7 you're welcome, you can't activate a great rune with it, I was just trying to say that the scarab helmet was located close to the tower that activates Godrick's Great Rune
Late as all get out but never apologize for the time. These things are so incredibly detailed and you provide alternative playstyles for players like me who suck at parries and advanced dodge timings. I've seen so many "get good" guides or walkthroughs and this was really refreshing.
Killing the Chariot with the falling pots is really easy if you do it by sound only rather than trying to destroy it by looking at it. Directly aim your bow at one of the hanging pots’ ropes and draw your bowstring. When the sound of the Chariot comes to a halt right below you, wait exactly one second and then fire your bow. It scores a direct hit every time! After destroying the Chariot, you’ll get an Erdtree Greatbow (requires 20 Str, 14 Dex & 14 Faith) and if you should die later on, the Chariot will not respawn again.
Dude your content is truly great and very detailed. Quality takes time and you are very transparent in your streamed notetaking and lets play series of your methods. recon record notes devise a route execute record episode. Honestly dude you are a machine. It could take twice as long and your content would still be worth ever second of the wait. you have my axe Siigned one of the strength boys of BONK.
im following this walkthrough 2 years later as a first time player on a kinda second playthrough, didnt beat it the first time and defenatly didnt understand the game nearl,y this much, and im enjoying this game so much more now. thank you for thease vids 2 years later lol.
Dude the fact you're fitting all of this into the episodes is more than sufficient...anyone giving you a hard time, can stfu. Great job, your efforts are majorly appreciated.
Dude just take the time you need for these episodes. I really enjoy them to sum up all the stuff I discovered for myself. Also you can just feel the Elden Ring vibe in ur videos, not only the walkthroughs. Literally making the game more immersive and putting in some lore i. e. your build vids. That is exactly the kind of man that needs to do these vids! So keep up the great work man, don't let anyone stress you out and be safe and good in real life 🙏
As always, appreciate these walkthroughs! And so people know, Boc is still there, if you stand on the road and look towards the telescope, you can see in the scenery behind that there's an outstanding orange/brownish bush. That's where he hides and you can just go up to it and roll into him.
OMG THERE ARE 82 OF THESE You made my first dark souls play through a lot less scary and Im so excited to have these available as I wander through myself and and go back to see what i missed and watch as I get stuck. Thank you so much dude you are an absolute rockstar
Thank you, Cowboy, for all the hard work you put into this. I'm usually awful at Souls games but I'm not nearly as awful thanks to you. Take your time with the episodes and stay safe!
There is a "Strength Knot Crystal Tear" in a bowl near a Giant Troll on the eastern edge of the cliff facing the dark green forest on the map over the Warmaster. It's really close to the art you got from the guy on horseback on the western side of that forest. Just adding that in for future playthroughs.
I can appreciated EVERY minute of your guide. I had almost given up until I started watching your guide. I just go through the new undiscovered stuff on my own and then watch the guide to see if I am missing anything. It also keeps me on track since I have absolutely NO idea which direction to head towards. Thank you Cowboy!
I agree. An open world game as big as this needs to give a player some direction. More than this one does, anyway. I'm not saying hold your hand and tell you exactly where to go like World of Warcraft pretty much does, but running around hoping to run into random NPCs standing on a broken stone wall to find quest lines is a little stupid. I guess maybe they know people will rely on Google and UA-cam nowadays, or play through multiple times to clean up what they missed last time?
Beyond the quality of your walk-throughs, I'm stunned by how much you know about each weapon or item. So impressive. From DS3 to BB to here. Thanks Cownoy.
Dude, this is a huge open world game! You are doing great with the walk throughs. I’ve followed you all the way till now! And I intend to continue presently!
I apologize if someone already pointed this out or if you cover it in a later episode, but don’t forget about the Bell Bearing Hunter. He spawns in the Warmaster’s Shack at night. If it’s night and the NPC is there, rest once to get him to spawn. He drops a bell bearing that you turn in to open thin beast bones and hefty beast bone crafting ingredients at the twin maiden husks at Roundtable Hold.
Hello! I just wanted to say that I appreciate your walkthroughs. They are excellent! I love going through and tackling stuff I might have missed on my blind playthrough (which is ongoing). I appreciate the work. Take your time. If you need rest, take it. Please don't burn yourself out. Thanks again! These are great!
MR. COWBOY. First off thank you for the time and effort you put into these videos. You really do go above and beyond. As a single dad i dont have as much time to play video games as i once did so i really only play games that i can walkthrough with you. Ive now been through and PLATINUM'D Sekiro, Days Gone, Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order. The Last of Us 2 and now im on Elden Ring. Youre the best content creator for Platinum Walkthrough videos HANDS down. Thanks and congrats on the new baby. Keep up the good work JG
Hey Cowboy, I love this series, it’s fantastic that you are doing this, I can’t imagine the effort that must be going into it. Thank you very much. I have commented on some missed things on previous videos, but it is by no means meant to be a criticism to you. Again, wonderful work and please keep it up.
Take all the time you need cowboy. What separates these walkthroughs from others is how thorough and user friendly they are. First used one of yours for ds3 and after playing blind (personally I prefer that first) I always come to your channel to see all the stuff I missed. We appreciate the crazy amount of work you put in to make these. I'm honestly amazed you're already grinding on such a comprehensive thing already, I thought it would be like a month just because of how massive this game is. Keep it fun and don't feel pressured my guy, we will get the episodes when we get them
Honestly thanks to your videos I didn’t throw this game in the trash !!! As a noob to the series with no direction at all I was lost as shit. Legit almost returned it after 2 day untill I found your videos !! So thankful for your help and the fact I am actually getting to enjoy this game !! Thanks brotha you da shit !!!
I appreciate this entire series. It’s 2 years now, I stopped playing after beating godrich the grafted because I felt stuck. Didn’t know what to do. Watching this gave me the motivation to play again. 💯
Yep walkthoughs takes lots of time to make particularly for a new game, don't let people who are complaining it's to slow bother you, they just need to be patient. As per 14:17 moonveil was patched down to just good in patch 1.03
Appreciate the time and effort it takes to do this along with all the other stuff you do man, take all the time you need to keep this stuff as high quality as it is. love you and your content man!
Bloodborne was my first From Software game, and I was super frustrated early on until i found this walkthrough. I ended up loving it so much I HAD to get Elden Ring after finishing it, and was elated to see you had another walkthrough series. I think your pacing and narration is perfect for this kind of game tbh, keep up the great work.
Man take your time this actually helps a lot and if someone is complaining about you not doing a lot of videos let them try making one with the kind of content you do and let them see
I'm a bit late from release, but this guide has been infinitely helpful compared to all the other guides, primarily because of how comprehensive you are. I'm happy to wait for quality guides (and I'm sure most people are) compared to the flashy clickbait videos which are everywhere right now.
If you aim at the string and wait for when the chariot hits the wall you are at (you can hear it) then fire shortly after it will connect when it paths down. That way you don't have to zoom in and out so much. You get a bow if you manage to kill the chariot.
Thank you so much for you're time with this gameplay. As a person who barely plays souls games, this walkthrough helps a lot. Been having a blast for the past 3 days and I look forward for more! Thank you again dude! You're the best!
I dont usually look at guides but had major issues with the Crucible Knight in evergaol. Damn he is tougher than most bosses tbh. Great guide and very very calm and good narrative. Good job man 💯👍
Another great video. I'd echo that 1 per day is perfect cadence. So much to do and explore, plenty to do in between and with so many great games out right now, hard to complain. Great time to be a gamer! Keep up the great work!
Cowboy you are my hero !!! I cannot even imagine all the time you need for one single episode … there is no rush !!! I rather do one Per day but getting the most out of each episode (items and stuff) … than just rush the episodes and not getting anything … thank you so much !!!
Honestly the second I clicked on your first video, I have been playing this game with you by my side the entire time. I have the patience and if it wasn’t for your gameplay, I would have no game sense about this game whatsoever. I appreciate it!
Shoutout to Cowboy. When I initially picked this game up, I feel like I was getting my ass kicked, I think I was just going to areas I wasn't meant to be in yet. Following the walkthrough up to this point, I'm having a blast and feel so powerful.
Im playing Dex,Qua,Str,Sor and faith character builds all at the same time using this walk through thank you cow boy really for all the hours and hard work u put in G and let’s gooooo this vid is 40+ min to mans is giving use the cheat code 😂
I just recently discovered you through your Shadow of the 3rd tree walkthrough, and now I'm going back through the base game with this full walkthrough. Thank you so much for all of your work. I really appreciate all the work you've put into this!
I tried this game on my own, and got luke halfway through, but honestly following along with this guide has made this game so much more fun, thanks for the quality content 🤙🏼
I found a fix to get Nepheli to appear. Speak with 2 finger lady and go through all the dialogue Speak with Gideon at the Fire at Roundtable Hold. He will tell you you're not worthy of being there. Refresh the area by fast travelling back to the roundtable Gideon should then move from the fire to the library and Nepheli should appear
All your effort is much appreciated, brother! I made it through DS1 & 3 with your help and I'm having great fun with this game too. BTW, I initially came for the help, but stayed for the comedy!!! Your comments are absolutely brilliant and hilarious!
You’re doing an awesome job brother! No stress on the timing! Your giving us quality tutorials that is allowing everyone to enjoy the game to the best of their ability. I’m taking notes just playing man so I can only imagine how crazy it is for you to cover all of this material.
The videos are great, and the dedication shows. It's never a good thing to rush so take the time you need (yes I know this is posted way after you've done them bust still). Keep the great work up and onto the next video. Remember to use password "fcb" for the community 👍
Nefelli didn’t show up at the round table hold for me..? I summoned her in the fight against Godrick as well. P.S I’m enjoying them one day at a time I can really sink in to the world
I had sane issue. I had never talked to her father in the main room. I did that and reloaded and Nephi Lou Who was there and her father was in the library.
I understand completely, I'm going through your videos one episode everyday and it's just me playing the game and not taking notes and all, I believe you're doing a great job, I know it's all out now, but whatever you're doing now you do it on your own tempo, you do have a real life also and that's more important to focus on most of the time. thanks for this amazing walkthrough of the hardest game ever to navigate.
Hi, I just wanted to thank-you for making this walkthrough. I am new to Souls-like games and these videos have really helped me when I was struggling so much in the beginning. I pretty much went straight to Stormveil Castle (following the "Guidance of Grace), got hopelessly lost then went searching around UA-cam for good guides. While I did find many tip, tricks, skills and weapon recommendation videos, none of them really gave a good impression on when they could be realistically acquired as most of the vids were recorded off of the creator's endgame save file. I now realize that I had been avoiding a lot of content that I should have been doing before attempting Stormveil because I thought that it was designed to be tackled later in the general flow of the game (Weeping Peninsula) or were challenge dungeons intended for more experienced players.
FWIW I just started Souls games for the first time about three weeks ago and have now completed DS1 and DS3 (I am hooked!). You were invaluable and instrumental to getting me interested and educated on the game. I find your content very high quality, and I appreciate everything you do. If you want any slight criticism, it would be that some times, like all of us, you seem a bit disgruntled with the work, however it never affects the work product from the two plus series I have been following you. I look forward to many more. Thank you and keep it up!
2 years later and mans is still helping fools through this fun af game I just started a wrethched character and veen following this walk-through.. with no PS+ and no human summons it has been a blast watching your videos during the day and then playing this at night! I want you to know that this hard work you put into this is really appreciated by I
Man, these walkthroughs have been super helpful. I just started the dark souls/elden ring games with elden ring and man have you made it not as bad as I thought playing these would be. I tried to get my roommate to play to but he raged within an hour. Love the walkthroughs!! They are fantastic.
I'm still gonna follow this guide but I came here simply because no one else is doing this, I appreciate you even attempting to chronicle everything in this game let alone 100% it, you have a family and I you don't really owe me or anyone else anything, with that being said it's a little disheartening hearing you say you're not going to even cover something being "Boc's questline", I know it isn't that important but for people who are comprstionist's like myself and want to try to touch every piece of the game no matter how big or small it's a bit of a robbery. That's just my two cents and at the end of the day it isn't a huge deal, still super appreciate the series so early in the life of Elden Ring! Sorry for the rant my guy.
I just got this game about a week ago, and this guide is awesome. Never played Dark Souls before this either, so it’s an extremely new concept. I get agitated about certain boss fights that you run us through, but more so because I’m not the greatest at this game yet so I get wrecked sometimes. But overall, the guide is awesome and there’s lots of information in a total general sense of base aspects. The only thing I could think of about your videos is if you time-stamped certain boss battles, or like showed a map with a pinpoint up of the location with a visual of the closest Grace. That’s more a concept of people using your guides as stop-gaps for certain gear and blind-running the rest. Love the videos, keep doing what you’re doing.
Yeah, if this wasn't 2 years down the line I'd say to just chill and take YOUR time. Always see the impatience with people following these walkthroughs - I've been following yours on two toons (mage & quality) and honestly, if I'd done it at the time of release - I'd just have another toon (faith or whatever) to explore the world like I do now - and just follow the mage/quality whenever you'd released a new episode. But yeah, that dungeon was so fun - when I figured out how to deal with the pots and the beast...made it so much better!
Man man man dear Fighting Cowboy I've been following your walkthroughs ever since I get into the souls series, started back at DS1 and I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate your work so much, you make the best walkthroughs by far and I can honestly say that my experience through the Souls series wouldn't be the same without you! Thank you very much for your time and effort, you're the best 💜
I just wanted to say amazing job ! Your walk through has been informative and detailed and very much appreciated. I am and will forever be a fan of your work. Thank you , you enhanced my game experience to the max. Amazing work and much appreciated.
I realize these are kind of dated as far as release date and don’t expect anyone to even see this but I just wanted to say thank you for all your time and effort. I about gave up on this game because of no quest log but these are fantastic. I follow your guide from location to location but do all the investigating myself so you are my log 😀which is perfect for me. Awesome guides!
I've just come across your walkthrough series after getting ER and never having never played a Souls game before I'm thoroughly enjoying following it through. Up to now I'm at #12 so about to do Godrick. Thankyou so much for doing this series it's helping me tremendously.
This episode we go a bit longer and focus on taking on everything remaining in Limgrave, including the Fringefolk Hero's grave which has one of the best ash summons, and a few other dungeons here and there. We also continue Alexanders's quest line this episode.
Hey cowboy I beat godrick activated the rune and nephali was there at the boss fight but now she isn’t at round table hold? Any ideas on where she could be?
@@nicholasbray2095 this is the same for me
@@Isaaccummins so I went offline then online again. The. Went to a few different grace points then back and she was finally there
So I assume it's because I killed Gastoc near the castle entrance. I suppose at least I got about 15000 runes for it.
@@nicholasbray2095 Nice one. That's worked for me too.
Take your time my dude. Episode quality is at the highest. Those impatient folks seem to not understand that juggling family, work, and everything else takes time and attention if done properly. Keep up the great work, it is much appreciated
Cowboy you’re a really cool guy and u keep it 💯
Yeah most definitely agree, once he explained that it would be one per day I was totally fine with it, at least he’s giving us a detailed walk through, props to Cowboy for that👏
Came here with the same intentions. I've been watching cowboy's YT channel since DS1, and he's funny, informative, and has great quality content. Tune out negativity, and do not let the internet EpicNameBro you to the point you feel you need to do other things. You are in the top tier of content creators for this genre!
I agree but at first I was on pace with him in this walkthrough series now I’m past Liurnia and I kinda want him to catch up cause I’m seeing so much stuff I missed in his videos 😭
Frs gives me time to level up and find other stuff he might of missed
2 years later and I still love these guides. Always take your time man! Do what works for you, people will keep coming around. There are actually very few quality "walkthrough" guides on YT. Super appreciation for you doing these. Would be cool to see you do another series, maybe full dex or mage walkthrough. This one is golden.
Fr
Low-key kind of a crazy ask.. this walk-through is to make it easy to get through the game and took a lot of time to make
I'm sure could do a let's play in that category but a walk-through would be tough
Also remember this game was released Feb 25th and he posted the 1st walk through video 7 days later. CB got these out super fast.
can someone help me guys cowboy has the controller's UI how do i put that on elden rinng instead of the keyboard ones
@@ray-fh6xi ITs in settings in game
Producing a walkthrough of this quality while being a dad is so impressive. Take your time, man. Your subscribers are patient and we appreciate the work that you do,
As a dad I could barely keep up. Lol
How old is he
32:56 Tip for destroying the chariot, shoot your arrow when he hit the wall you're on, when you see your screen shaking release your trigger. Got it first try this way
Great advise, worked for me
thanks for this 👍
Thanks it worked first try
This is actually perfect advice....no veed to take your eye off the shot (I used a bow)
Thanks for the tip! Just worked for me first try. 4/25/22. Fired the bolt (at the middle pot) the minute the wall shook from the chariot hitting near me. It landed right on the chariot.
Demon's Souls was my first From game. Now going through Elden Ring with the help of your walkthroughs is making the experience extremely enjoyable. You put so much work on this that it's only fair I give something back! Plus, your voice is pleasant to listen to - trust me that makes a difference! I'm now in Part 13 and can't wait to get going!
Same boat man 😊
Samesies 😊
For everyone having a hard time waiting. Have two character. One following this guide and one just speed on and explore to your hearts desire.
Or grind levels
Or you know actually get a life and other things to do. Cowboy here is playing at the perfect pace.
Excellent idea. I've never played a strength build before - I'm going to make a new character to follow along with. My first character has missed so much stuff.
Cowboy, I owe my undying love for Soulslike games to you. No joke, someone bought Sekiro for me for a birthday present. I played it for 2 hours and got massively discouraged. Found your walkthrough...never looked back. I've played every souls, bloodborne, Sekiro, and now Elden Ring because you made it easy for me to catch on how to play these games for myself. Thank you for all the effort you put in. Forever a sub!
I know I’m super late to the party but as a new souls player these videos have been the best thing ever. Please never let anyone make you feel rushed. Quality content doesn’t just happen in the blink of an eye.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos. When I first picked up elden ring, I didn't like it. I thought it was too hard for a casual gamer like myself. Then I came across your video and decided to give it another chance. After watching your guides and using your tips and advice, I absolutely fell in love with the game. So again, thank you very much, Cowboy.
I’m on the exact same boat
Same here as well
That was the infamous learning curve. Took me abotu 6 hrs to feel it plateau and that's when I truly began to love the game also.
Honestly 1 walkthrough a day is just right! It’s the perfect amount of content for me in a day. Appreciate all your hard work!
Cowboy, thank you, my man. Coming from a fellow father, I appreciate all that you put into these walk-through videos and with this being my first Souls game. I have been doing my first playthrough with your videos. I would never have gotten anywhere in this game and would have given up if not for you.
I just want to say and I know it’s 2 years later but I have used your guide for Elden ring almost twice now. I just want to say thank you and I am so thankful for the hard work you put into giving us the best and informative walk throughs! I see your hard work and I thank you!
That extra crossbow shot into the trap that rearmed it and hit you was pure gold. I am loving this series.
No bull shit Cowboy, I intentionally waited to get this game until you put out a good portion of your walkthroughs. Without your guidance the “Souls Games” wouldn’t be the same for me. You’re doing great my dude!
For anyone finding that Nephellie isn’t appearing in the round table after completing the Godrick fight with her summoned at least once:
1) Fast Travel to Round Table
2) Find Gideon in the main room and exhaust his dialogue.
3) Fast Travel to world
4) Fast Travel back to Round Table
5) Nephellie should appear as seen in video and study doors should be open.
Tnks so much !!!
Thanks lol . I was like WTF she did not spawn here.
What do you mean by main room? Is it where D is sitting?
@@adiel5763 the room with the grace
@@ryancurtis6061 If you are referring to the room where you spawn when you fast travel to the round tables, then he isn't there for me...
I have yet to find a room with a grace in the round tables other then the room I've mentioned
Without cowboys walkthrough I would still be stuck on margit you have helped me tremendously. This is my first souls game I ever played and it’s been difficult but your vids are so helpful and you explain everything so well. This type of work takes time and we respect you for it because we why you have a kid of your own that you also have to take care of I just want to say thank you for the work you put in 💯
This is fax cowboy is so much help
Literally me, well said
Don’t sweat it. This is one of the most through walk-thrus! Take your time.
@@BeastFormal agreed
Hey Cowboy. Just sending a shout out. I would not be playing Elden Ring at all without this walkthrough. I really needed some initial direction to get rolling.
I beat Godrick without ever summoning in Nepheli Loux, tho I did exhaust her dialogue in the room where she is complimenting the dead guy on the floor. I still got the Arsenal charm when I spoke to her in the hold, so summoning her for the fight seems to not be an absolute requirement. This is just a data point for anyone else who struggles with following basic instructions.
People need to take the time to understand how much work you put in to make such a high quality guide and not the simple stuff most content creators put out. You take the time to really explain things from strats to the worth of items for various builds. Keep doing your thing and proceed at the pace that works best for you. Been an awesome series and look forward to following it through however long it takes.
The tree where Boc is located is at 42:04 where the sheep are, (he will also call out to you). Also, the chariot in the Heroes Grave will drop the Erdtree Greatbow if you manage to hit it with the hanging jars, it took me ages to time it right….
Yeah I realized that if you aim at the rope and then listen for the chariot to hit the bottom then fire it will blow it up on its way up.
I trick is not to try get the pot to hit the chariot. Try to get the pot down so the explosion hits it
I watched to his video first to get an idea of the timing once I saw the hanging pots
This is already the most detailed walkthrough you've ever done before. It is already an extremely daunting task making sure to 100% cover an open-world game. The daily releases are great, it's showing you're taking the time to ensure everything is getting covered.
I like this method of daily videos too. I'm pretty far ahead in elden ring, and I like watching these to go back and collect missing items after I've been through the area once.
hmmm you missed all his other 100% walkthroughs from other souls games?
@@altijdwat67 I think they mean that this game is open world and has much more in the game than the other souls games
@@Killatron-gj9md all souls are open world ;) but not as huge as this one. But Ds2 was also very big.
@@altijdwat67 Nah the other souls games were fairly linear you could choose to go to other areas sure but you had a predetermined route that you had to take in those areas
2024 and late to the party with this game.. tried it when it came out and was overwhelmed with the info needed, set it aside and I’ve just got into it. A guide of this quality is what’s getting me into this game right now, following this then NG+ on my own, good stuff!
Thanks for making souls games fun !
Imagine being someone who watches this man's content to beat this game and still complain that you aren't getting enough episodes.. the man is literally beating thr game for you be patient.
1:40 cowboy my man, dont be sorry. we all love and really appreciate the work you have put in for this game, and bring us just an amazing experience through the walkthrough. Entertaining, descriptive and thorough. i will take quality over quantity any day, and i am sure most folks out here will agree with it too. you take your time, and keep it up!
I’ll admit, I am one of those impatient folks that wants these videos out sooner, but I fully understand that these take time and appreciate it. This is my first play through so having to wait in between allows me to explore ahead and see if I can find everything that you’ll cover in the next video on my own and go back to it again later if I miss anything
There is one thing you missed in Limgrave, an artist shack that will allow you to get the Incantation Scarab. Start at the Murkwater Coast grace, take the nearby spirit spring east to find the Artist Shack grace. Examine the painting and then go to the Seaside Ruins grace (south of Dragon-Burnt Ruins) and go northwest along the cliffs until the guy in the chair spawns. He will disappear after a second and leave behind the Incantation Scarab.
There's an Ash of War Scarab down below the teleporter that's on the bridge to the Limgrave Divine Tower that activates Godrick's Great Rune. Just hop down where the teleporter is and the bridge is broken, down the rubble there will be a corpse with the Scarab Helmet.
@@joeyjones9041 thanks for the tip, how do you activate the rune with it?
@@KING_MALAHK_7 you're welcome, you can't activate a great rune with it, I was just trying to say that the scarab helmet was located close to the tower that activates Godrick's Great Rune
Thanks, precise on the locations too.
Thanks man
Late as all get out but never apologize for the time. These things are so incredibly detailed and you provide alternative playstyles for players like me who suck at parries and advanced dodge timings. I've seen so many "get good" guides or walkthroughs and this was really refreshing.
Killing the Chariot with the falling pots is really easy if you do it by sound only rather than trying to destroy it by looking at it. Directly aim your bow at one of the hanging pots’ ropes and draw your bowstring. When the sound of the Chariot comes to a halt right below you, wait exactly one second and then fire your bow. It scores a direct hit every time!
After destroying the Chariot, you’ll get an Erdtree Greatbow (requires 20 Str, 14 Dex & 14 Faith) and if you should die later on, the Chariot will not respawn again.
Thanks 1st try with this method
From DS1 to Elden Ring; these walkthroughs are my favorite part of the game(s). Thank you, FightingCowboy!
Dude your content is truly great and very detailed. Quality takes time and you are very transparent in your streamed notetaking and lets play series of your methods. recon record notes devise a route execute record episode. Honestly dude you are a machine. It could take twice as long and your content would still be worth ever second of the wait.
you have my axe
Siigned one of the strength boys of BONK.
im following this walkthrough 2 years later as a first time player on a kinda second playthrough, didnt beat it the first time and defenatly didnt understand the game nearl,y this much, and im enjoying this game so much more now. thank you for thease vids 2 years later lol.
Dude the fact you're fitting all of this into the episodes is more than sufficient...anyone giving you a hard time, can stfu. Great job, your efforts are majorly appreciated.
At 1:26, before taking the teleporter, go forward and down for two pieces of loot. One is soft cotton and the other is Ash of War Scarab helmet.
Dude just take the time you need for these episodes. I really enjoy them to sum up all the stuff I discovered for myself. Also you can just feel the Elden Ring vibe in ur videos, not only the walkthroughs. Literally making the game more immersive and putting in some lore i. e. your build vids. That is exactly the kind of man that needs to do these vids! So keep up the great work man, don't let anyone stress you out and be safe and good in real life 🙏
As always, appreciate these walkthroughs! And so people know, Boc is still there, if you stand on the road and look towards the telescope, you can see in the scenery behind that there's an outstanding orange/brownish bush. That's where he hides and you can just go up to it and roll into him.
Don't forget to visit him again at that cave near the east shore after you find him, if you want to use him.
Using your guides to platinum on my second playthrough. Love your content.
OMG THERE ARE 82 OF THESE
You made my first dark souls play through a lot less scary and Im so excited to have these available as I wander through myself and and go back to see what i missed and watch as I get stuck. Thank you so much dude you are an absolute rockstar
Having a blast following your walkthrough. Appreciate that you take the time to explain things. Don’t push too hard to get the episodes out!
Thank you, Cowboy, for all the hard work you put into this. I'm usually awful at Souls games but I'm not nearly as awful thanks to you. Take your time with the episodes and stay safe!
There is a "Strength Knot Crystal Tear" in a bowl near a Giant Troll on the eastern edge of the cliff facing the dark green forest on the map over the Warmaster. It's really close to the art you got from the guy on horseback on the western side of that forest. Just adding that in for future playthroughs.
I can appreciated EVERY minute of your guide. I had almost given up until I started watching your guide. I just go through the new undiscovered stuff on my own and then watch the guide to see if I am missing anything. It also keeps me on track since I have absolutely NO idea which direction to head towards. Thank you Cowboy!
I agree. An open world game as big as this needs to give a player some direction. More than this one does, anyway. I'm not saying hold your hand and tell you exactly where to go like World of Warcraft pretty much does, but running around hoping to run into random NPCs standing on a broken stone wall to find quest lines is a little stupid. I guess maybe they know people will rely on Google and UA-cam nowadays, or play through multiple times to clean up what they missed last time?
Beyond the quality of your walk-throughs, I'm stunned by how much you know about each weapon or item. So impressive. From DS3 to BB to here. Thanks Cownoy.
Dude, this is a huge open world game! You are doing great with the walk throughs. I’ve followed you all the way till now! And I intend to continue presently!
I apologize if someone already pointed this out or if you cover it in a later episode, but don’t forget about the Bell Bearing Hunter. He spawns in the Warmaster’s Shack at night. If it’s night and the NPC is there, rest once to get him to spawn. He drops a bell bearing that you turn in to open thin beast bones and hefty beast bone crafting ingredients at the twin maiden husks at Roundtable Hold.
Thanks for the reminder
Hello!
I just wanted to say that I appreciate your walkthroughs. They are excellent! I love going through and tackling stuff I might have missed on my blind playthrough (which is ongoing). I appreciate the work. Take your time. If you need rest, take it. Please don't burn yourself out.
Thanks again! These are great!
MR. COWBOY. First off thank you for the time and effort you put into these videos. You really do go above and beyond. As a single dad i dont have as much time to play video games as i once did so i really only play games that i can walkthrough with you. Ive now been through and PLATINUM'D Sekiro, Days Gone, Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order. The Last of Us 2 and now im on Elden Ring. Youre the best content creator for Platinum Walkthrough videos HANDS down.
Thanks and congrats on the new baby. Keep up the good work
JG
This is my third run thru, and I'm finally enjoying Elden Ring. Thanks for getting me thru Godrick.
I love hearing him tell me he believes in me. It’s so wholesome and sweet.
Hey Cowboy, I love this series, it’s fantastic that you are doing this, I can’t imagine the effort that must be going into it. Thank you very much. I have commented on some missed things on previous videos, but it is by no means meant to be a criticism to you. Again, wonderful work and please keep it up.
I truly appreciate the work you’ve put in on this game, tried to like all the vids and watch the live streams when I can
Take all the time you need cowboy. What separates these walkthroughs from others is how thorough and user friendly they are. First used one of yours for ds3 and after playing blind (personally I prefer that first) I always come to your channel to see all the stuff I missed. We appreciate the crazy amount of work you put in to make these. I'm honestly amazed you're already grinding on such a comprehensive thing already, I thought it would be like a month just because of how massive this game is. Keep it fun and don't feel pressured my guy, we will get the episodes when we get them
Honestly thanks to your videos I didn’t throw this game in the trash !!! As a noob to the series with no direction at all I was lost as shit. Legit almost returned it after 2 day untill I found your videos !! So thankful for your help and the fact I am actually getting to enjoy this game !! Thanks brotha you da shit !!!
I appreciate this entire series. It’s 2 years now, I stopped playing after beating godrich the grafted because I felt stuck. Didn’t know what to do. Watching this gave me the motivation to play again. 💯
Yep walkthoughs takes lots of time to make particularly for a new game, don't let people who are complaining it's to slow bother you, they just need to be patient. As per 14:17 moonveil was patched down to just good in patch 1.03
Take your time brother. This series was a godsend and has helped me and so many others get through this game. Thank you for making this series.
Appreciate the time and effort it takes to do this along with all the other stuff you do man, take all the time you need to keep this stuff as high quality as it is. love you and your content man!
Bloodborne was my first From Software game, and I was super frustrated early on until i found this walkthrough. I ended up loving it so much I HAD to get Elden Ring after finishing it, and was elated to see you had another walkthrough series. I think your pacing and narration is perfect for this kind of game tbh, keep up the great work.
Man take your time this actually helps a lot and if someone is complaining about you not doing a lot of videos let them try making one with the kind of content you do and let them see
I'm a bit late from release, but this guide has been infinitely helpful compared to all the other guides, primarily because of how comprehensive you are. I'm happy to wait for quality guides (and I'm sure most people are) compared to the flashy clickbait videos which are everywhere right now.
If you aim at the string and wait for when the chariot hits the wall you are at (you can hear it) then fire shortly after it will connect when it paths down. That way you don't have to zoom in and out so much. You get a bow if you manage to kill the chariot.
You are a life saver i had 1 attempt left and nailed it! Thank you glad i read comments
Yes! This is it. First try, one shot, BOOM! Perfect, many thanks.
Soooo she wasn't in the library for me ? I summoned her for the godrick fight but she isn't at the round table
Thank you so much for you're time with this gameplay. As a person who barely plays souls games, this walkthrough helps a lot. Been having a blast for the past 3 days and I look forward for more! Thank you again dude! You're the best!
if you still read your comments then I just want to say how great your guides are. Unrivalled excellence.
I dont usually look at guides but had major issues with the Crucible Knight in evergaol. Damn he is tougher than most bosses tbh.
Great guide and very very calm and good narrative. Good job man 💯👍
Another great video. I'd echo that 1 per day is perfect cadence. So much to do and explore, plenty to do in between and with so many great games out right now, hard to complain. Great time to be a gamer! Keep up the great work!
Loving the walkthrough! Excellent stuff as always.
Cowboy you are my hero !!! I cannot even imagine all the time you need for one single episode … there is no rush !!! I rather do one Per day but getting the most out of each episode (items and stuff) … than just rush the episodes and not getting anything … thank you so much !!!
Honestly the second I clicked on your first video, I have been playing this game with you by my side the entire time. I have the patience and if it wasn’t for your gameplay, I would have no game sense about this game whatsoever. I appreciate it!
Shoutout to Cowboy. When I initially picked this game up, I feel like I was getting my ass kicked, I think I was just going to areas I wasn't meant to be in yet. Following the walkthrough up to this point, I'm having a blast and feel so powerful.
Yeah it’s easy to do. First boss I came across in the world was Margot lmfao
Anyone else didn’t see that woman in at the round table to give you the Arsenal Charm?
Yes she didn’t show up. How do I get her to show up. I told we to her and she helped me kill the boss and then she’s not there
@aaronburnett1131 did she die in the fight?
Talk to Gideon and exaust his dialogue, than reload the area. She should be there.
@@bizzmarky8140gideon isnt there for me
Happened to me too, for me it happened because I killed godrick before speaking to her
Im playing Dex,Qua,Str,Sor and faith character builds all at the same time using this walk through thank you cow boy really for all the hours and hard work u put in G and let’s gooooo this vid is 40+ min to mans is giving use the cheat code 😂
I just recently discovered you through your Shadow of the 3rd tree walkthrough, and now I'm going back through the base game with this full walkthrough. Thank you so much for all of your work. I really appreciate all the work you've put into this!
I tried this game on my own, and got luke halfway through, but honestly following along with this guide has made this game so much more fun, thanks for the quality content 🤙🏼
Just finished ep 12 in time for this ep :D
12:55 golden vow is great damage to start your character. Always pick it up as it gives you higher DPS early.
I found a fix to get Nepheli to appear.
Speak with 2 finger lady and go through all the dialogue
Speak with Gideon at the Fire at Roundtable Hold. He will tell you you're not worthy of being there. Refresh the area by fast travelling back to the roundtable
Gideon should then move from the fire to the library and Nepheli should appear
worked! thank you!
Thanks a bunch I worked!!!
Thank you
Worked thanks
thanks dude
All your effort is much appreciated, brother! I made it through DS1 & 3 with your help and I'm having great fun with this game too. BTW, I initially came for the help, but stayed for the comedy!!! Your comments are absolutely brilliant and hilarious!
You’re doing an awesome job brother! No stress on the timing! Your giving us quality tutorials that is allowing everyone to enjoy the game to the best of their ability. I’m taking notes just playing man so I can only imagine how crazy it is for you to cover all of this material.
The videos are great, and the dedication shows. It's never a good thing to rush so take the time you need (yes I know this is posted way after you've done them bust still). Keep the great work up and onto the next video. Remember to use password "fcb" for the community 👍
Currently following his footsteps but in a samurai build
didn’t ask monke 💀
Same
Nefelli didn’t show up at the round table hold for me..? I summoned her in the fight against Godrick as well.
P.S I’m enjoying them one day at a time
I can really sink in to the world
Same for me
I had sane issue. I had never talked to her father in the main room. I did that and reloaded and Nephi Lou Who was there and her father was in the library.
@@CraigShifflet thanks for the fix, God bless
@@CraigShifflet thank you so much
@@Swordsman77 she didn’t spawn the second time I had to go to her and I talked to him and reset but she won’t spawn is there a solution for that
I understand completely, I'm going through your videos one episode everyday and it's just me playing the game and not taking notes and all, I believe you're doing a great job, I know it's all out now, but whatever you're doing now you do it on your own tempo, you do have a real life also and that's more important to focus on most of the time. thanks for this amazing walkthrough of the hardest game ever to navigate.
Hi, I just wanted to thank-you for making this walkthrough. I am new to Souls-like games and these videos have really helped me when I was struggling so much in the beginning. I pretty much went straight to Stormveil Castle (following the "Guidance of Grace), got hopelessly lost then went searching around UA-cam for good guides. While I did find many tip, tricks, skills and weapon recommendation videos, none of them really gave a good impression on when they could be realistically acquired as most of the vids were recorded off of the creator's endgame save file.
I now realize that I had been avoiding a lot of content that I should have been doing before attempting Stormveil because I thought that it was designed to be tackled later in the general flow of the game (Weeping Peninsula) or were challenge dungeons intended for more experienced players.
The chick wasn’t there in the library for me
You have to exhaust all of Gideons dialogue in his original location for her to spawn
Can't beat that fukn lizard mate and it's pissing me off no end. This game is fukn frustrating as hell

FWIW I just started Souls games for the first time about three weeks ago and have now completed DS1 and DS3 (I am hooked!). You were invaluable and instrumental to getting me interested and educated on the game. I find your content very high quality, and I appreciate everything you do. If you want any slight criticism, it would be that some times, like all of us, you seem a bit disgruntled with the work, however it never affects the work product from the two plus series I have been following you. I look forward to many more. Thank you and keep it up!
2 years later and mans is still helping fools through this fun af game
I just started a wrethched character and veen following this walk-through.. with no PS+ and no human summons it has been a blast watching your videos during the day and then playing this at night!
I want you to know that this hard work you put into this is really appreciated by I
I'm using this right now too! Good to see more recent comments from folks!
Man, these walkthroughs have been super helpful. I just started the dark souls/elden ring games with elden ring and man have you made it not as bad as I thought playing these would be. I tried to get my roommate to play to but he raged within an hour. Love the walkthroughs!! They are fantastic.
you said "Sen's Fortress" and I got a cold shiver
I'm still gonna follow this guide but I came here simply because no one else is doing this, I appreciate you even attempting to chronicle everything in this game let alone 100% it, you have a family and I you don't really owe me or anyone else anything, with that being said it's a little disheartening hearing you say you're not going to even cover something being "Boc's questline", I know it isn't that important but for people who are comprstionist's like myself and want to try to touch every piece of the game no matter how big or small it's a bit of a robbery. That's just my two cents and at the end of the day it isn't a huge deal, still super appreciate the series so early in the life of Elden Ring! Sorry for the rant my guy.
Man oh man. Without you as my guide i would be lost. And your voice is so calming when i usually would panic 🤣🤣 you are my compass
I just got this game about a week ago, and this guide is awesome. Never played Dark Souls before this either, so it’s an extremely new concept. I get agitated about certain boss fights that you run us through, but more so because I’m not the greatest at this game yet so I get wrecked sometimes. But overall, the guide is awesome and there’s lots of information in a total general sense of base aspects. The only thing I could think of about your videos is if you time-stamped certain boss battles, or like showed a map with a pinpoint up of the location with a visual of the closest Grace. That’s more a concept of people using your guides as stop-gaps for certain gear and blind-running the rest. Love the videos, keep doing what you’re doing.
Yeah, if this wasn't 2 years down the line I'd say to just chill and take YOUR time. Always see the impatience with people following these walkthroughs - I've been following yours on two toons (mage & quality) and honestly, if I'd done it at the time of release - I'd just have another toon (faith or whatever) to explore the world like I do now - and just follow the mage/quality whenever you'd released a new episode.
But yeah, that dungeon was so fun - when I figured out how to deal with the pots and the beast...made it so much better!
Man man man dear Fighting Cowboy I've been following your walkthroughs ever since I get into the souls series, started back at DS1 and I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate your work so much, you make the best walkthroughs by far and I can honestly say that my experience through the Souls series wouldn't be the same without you!
Thank you very much for your time and effort, you're the best 💜
I just wanted to say amazing job ! Your walk through has been informative and detailed and very much appreciated. I am and will forever be a fan of your work. Thank you , you enhanced my game experience to the max. Amazing work and much appreciated.
I realize these are kind of dated as far as release date and don’t expect anyone to even see this but I just wanted to say thank you for all your time and effort. I about gave up on this game because of no quest log but these are fantastic. I follow your guide from location to location but do all the investigating myself so you are my log 😀which is perfect for me. Awesome guides!
I've just come across your walkthrough series after getting ER and never having never played a Souls game before I'm thoroughly enjoying following it through. Up to now I'm at #12 so about to do Godrick. Thankyou so much for doing this series it's helping me tremendously.
