I was able to escape the first Elden Ring trap. It was made to Elden Ring Runes appear like a treasure chest hidden away in a low-level part of the latest FromSoftware action RPG, but it sent me on a wild ride through the most naughty areas of the game's crumbling world.

I had spent a good portion of the Elden Ring playthrough, exploring the areas around the lake that is named after Dragon Agheel within the games Limgrave region. I was aware from the early previews that a battle with the huge wyrm would start off if I went to far in the shallow waters of the lake and, instead of using my mighty steed Torrent's speedy pace, I decided to explore on my feet. I finally spotted an area known as the Dragon-Burnt Ruins, in which the torch-wielding wretches sang Agheel's name and slowly walked closer.

The battle against these foes was easy even though I was unable to recognize their massive dogs until it was too late. I approached the battle as I do in the early hours of my life with Elden Ring: Get as close as I can to avoid raising suspicion, call in some wolves that appear to perform my orders and then slash at my enemies from cheap Elden Ring Items a distance using my spear and firing incantations when an opportunity appears. It's not the most glamorous of activities, but it does the job and, most importantly, ensures that I am as secure as I can be.
