As the game progresses, you'll want to make sure that your character's stats are properly increased so that you can stand a chance against the game's tougher enemies. Most RPGs have you slay monsters in order to gain experience points that level up your character automatically. Elden Ring features similar level-up mechanics where defeating enemies is crucial. But there are a few extra steps. First, you must gain the ability to level up in the game. Once you reach a certain Site of Lost Grace toward the beginning of the game and rest there, you'll be greeted by a character named Melina. If you accept the help she offers, then she will "turn your runes to strength." In other words, she grants you the ability to level up. You can then choose to spend whatever amount of Runes you have to level up your character by visiting any Site of Grace.Article continues below advertisementSource: FromSoftware; Twitter/@nut_scribble In the Level Up menu, you can use your Runes to increase your stats. Runes can be found by defeating enemies or selling certain items at shops. You'll then have to choose which stats you want to level up, whether you want to increase your Strength to hit harder or your Faith to boost your magic. Note that every time you level up any stat, it will cost more Runes to level it up further. You may also see passive increases in other areas like Attack and Defense Power. Some weapons or spells require specific stats to be high enough in order for you to wield them, so it's important to take note of how you want to build your character. As long as you have the Runes for it, you can easily take the time to level up your Elden Ring character in a way that suits you best.AdvertisementMore from Distractify Your Guide to Unlocking All Six (Known) Endings in 'Elden Ring' Malenia, Blade of Miquella Is the Strongest Boss in 'Elden Ring' — Here's How You Beat Her 'Elden Ring' 1.03 Patch Notes — Balanced Enemies, New NPCs, and Better Sorceries Latest Elden Ring News and UpdatesAdvertisementABOUT DistractifyAbout UsPrivacy PolicyTerms of UseDMCASitemapCONNECT with DistractifyLink to Facebook Link to TwitterLink to InstagramContact us by Email Copyright 2022 Distractify.
