Elden Ring: Elden Ring 100% Completion Guide

Next up

Stormveil Castle

Margit, your first visit to the Roundtable Hold, the castle by Gostoc's side door, Godrick, the Divine Tower of Limgrave, and a last stop at the Hold.

This section suits level 30 to 40 with a weapon at +3 or +4, or +1 to +2 on somber stones. Torrent can't be ridden inside the castle.

Melina's offer closes Renna

Once Melina offers the trip to the Roundtable Hold, Renna stops coming to the Church of Elleh, even if you cancel. That locks Renna: Spirit Calling Bell at Church of Elleh. If you skipped her, the Spirit Calling Bell and Lone Wolf Ashes stay on sale at the Twin Maiden Husks, so no item is lost.

Margit's death closes Recusant Henricus

Recusant Henricus stops invading once Limgrave's five field bosses are all dead: Flying Dragon Agheel, Mad Pumpkin Head, Tibia Mariner, Tree Sentinel and Margit. Margit is the last of the five on this route, so this fight locks Recusant Henricus and the Hammer Talisman. If you skipped them, walk to the gates of the Limgrave Colosseum and beat him first.

Let Alberich finish his bow

About this guide

Expect about 230 hours over three runs, in a game where bosses take practice. This route uses no save backups. Run 1 collects everything in the base game and Shadow of the Erdtree, and takes about 170 of those hours. NG+ (about 40) and NG++ (about 20) are shorter runs for the other two endings and the other quest branches, with tougher enemies and some bosses to beat again for remembrance trades. Random drops and free-choice NPC kills never count toward 100%.
