At the end of the game, after 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:you've beaten Radagon of the Golden Order, you're transported to an endless liminal plane with ethereal golden tree trunks as far as the eye can see. It's here that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:we fight the Elden Beast, the Elden Ring itself. Despite the arena being enormous and completely open, you can't summon Torrent. You have to run around, boots splashing in the water, as you chase it from end to end.

That changes today. The update makes it so that you can finally ride your trusty steed as you fend back the titular god. It's a much more fitting end, finally able to complete your quest with the one companion you've had by your side the entire time through thick and thin.

Elden Ring Fans Are Over The Dark Moon

The Elden Beast fight has always been divisive among the community. The huge sprawling arena meant a slow-moving Torrent would have to lug themse♈lves all the way across just to reach their opponent, who could in a heartbeat teleport to the other side. Torrꦛent makes things a lot more manageable.

"The fight is no longer an intol🌺erable piece of dog sh--" wrote one fan, cutting straight to the point.

THE CHANGE I'VE BEEN WANTING SINCE THE START. TEARS IN MY EYES.

"Oh my god I don't have to take the subway to fight it now," . "Damn finally. Always felt like he was meant to be a part of the fight," wrote a third.

You don't need Shadow of the Erdtree for this update, so everyone can dive back in and give the Elden Beast a good beating with their ol' pal Torrent by their side.
