Elden Ring: Tips and tricks for leveling up fast

Elden Ring may not appear to be the type of game that encourages constant grinding, but there are numerous methods to grind out runes to increase your level. First and foremost, making your runes less volatile is essential for long-term leveling. Finding golden runes and keeping them in your inventory until you're ready to buy a level can make the process of leveling up a lot easier.

The Lands Between are treacherous, and losing a level's worth of runes on a careless run over a brand new cliff can add thirty minutes to your run time, but having an inventory of golden runes will lessen this risk.

Take a look at your map; there are a lot of graveyards. These tombs will constantly sprout golden runes ripe for the grabbing in Limgrave and its surrounding environs. To protect your valuables, fill your pockets with these runes, and you'll save a lot of time grinding.

Allow yourself to swallow your pride

Spend some time pretending to be a trader; The Lands Between are brimming with knickknacks, and money is actually power in this world. Selling any armaments you don't intend to use will increase the quantity of treasure you find on foes. Adding a few points to your Arcane stat will increase the amount of loot you find on enemies.

Baby, more loot equals more runes. Crafting goods, on the other hand, is a quick and easy way to pick up a few hundred runes here and there. It may appear to be slow at first, but the lack of risk, simplicity of access, and return on effort invested will make it well worth your time if your levels are low.

To suck up the runes, you don't have to take on the biggest and toughest adversaries. Whenever you've figured out how to kill the trolls that litter the countryside, you'll be able to consistently farm a thousand runes at a time, which will come in handy once levels start to cost a few thousand runes.

Patience is the word of the game, and oddly, the fastest way to churn out levels in Elden Ring is to go slow and steady.
