A new exploit has been discovered for Elden Ring that allows hosts to farm runes and annoy other players, so much so that people are asking FromSoftware to patch the game to fix it.
The exploit surrounds the invasion and player versus player (PvP) mechanic, and utilises several items which can summon unaware players into the host’s game.
The main method that’s being used involves using the Furcalling Finger Remedy and Taunter’s Tongue multiplayer items, which lure invaders into the host’s game. However, when the invader joins the game, they won’t be able to reach the host because the exploit involves using using the mount, Torrent, to hide in a place you can’t reach on foot.
After this, some hosts are even using the White Cipher Ring which summons hunters to fight on their behalf, which results in the invader either dying to the summoned character, giving up because they can’t find the host, or dying while trying to reach the host. All of these outcomes cause the host to get runes for doing next to nothing.
