The Elden Ring Shadow Of The Erdtree Leaks Are Only Half Right

I'm going to take you reading the title and clicking the article as a sign that you're okay with spoilers, but if you're not, here's your last warning - click away because I'm about to reveal several bosses in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree.

Spoilers for Shadow of the Erdtree follow.

Earlier this week, some major Shadow of the Erdtree spoilers leaked ahead of launch, revealing three key bosses - the return of Radahn in his prime, the Mother of Fingers, and Midra, Lord of Frenzied Flame. The leaks claimed that these are different bosses for different endings, with 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Miquella's path leading to one, St. Trina to another, and an unknown character to the last. That's not quite true.

Radahn in his prime is the final boss. Miquella summons him as their "consort" and, halfway through, rides on Radahn's back to strengthen his magic and agility much like the Lorian and Lothric fight in Dark Souls 3. The other two are real bosses, the leaks got that much right, but they're not the final story boss.

The Mother Of Fingers And Lord Of Frenzied Flame Are Optional

The Mother of Fingers is the final boss of an optional side quest you pick up at Manus Cathedral, where you must ring two Finger bells. Doing so will unlock a secret area beneath the cathedral, revealing a hidden third bell. Ring this and you'll be transported to an eery void beneath a mass of Fingers reminiscent of Ash Lake where you fight the Mother.

South of Manus Cathedral lies the Abyss (no doubt a fun little nod to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dark Souls), a ruined woods devoid of sunlight. Here, we find madness-inflicted rats and creatures so terrifying that Torrent refuses to come out, but if you persevere, you'll reach a dilapidated manor. Right at the end, past myriad illusory walls and trickles of lore, we fight Midra who was even featured in the trailer.

I beat young Radahn first after accidentꦦally stumbling into the end of the game. Afterwards, I swept the optional side content, fighting the Mother of Fingers and Lord of Frenzied Flame in one play💙through. They are not interchangeable final boss fights dependent on any key quests. You can face all three in one playthrough. So, while the leaked bosses themselves are real, the information surrounding them is wrong.
