This guide here covers how one can master her abilities, ensure gear optimization, and unleash the class's full potential to have god-slaying dominance. How to play Elden Ring Nightreign Recluse ? ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN | Recluse Character Trailer The Recluse thrives upon backline mages and can deal massive damage while remaining out of the melee range—obliterating the foes with Faith-fuelled spells and Intelligence. The class's playstyle completely revolves around exploiting elemental weaknesses and managing the FP in an efficient manner. Starting with the Glintstone Arc and Glintstone Pebble, she can adapt to varied combat scenarios just by swapping staves or the Sacred Seals in the middle of an expedition. Note: Recluse's core loop moves around Elemental Defense passive. To strike the enemies with the elemental magic—Lightning, Holy, Magic, and Fire, mark them with the colored residues. Recluse's Magic Cocktail skill is important as absorbing the elemental residues from the enemies helps to restore the FP and build towards the powerful combo spells. Always give priority to collecting the residues marked by the colored indicators (absorb 3 residues to unlock a potent, unique spell using Magic Cocktail) for fuelling the Recluse's abilities. Her Soulblood Song ultimate can mark the enemies and give a boost to the team damage while offering sustain through the FP and HP regeneration on hit. Also, the spam Magic Cocktail is quite often for the big spells and constant FP top-ups. Elden Ring tips and tricks to sharpen Recluse's skills and dominate Diversify the spell elements—Magic, Holy, Fire, and Lightning spells to create varied residues. Mixing them will unlock some unique Magic Cocktail effects like team buffs or area denial. Ensure to carry elemental options. Carry the Starlight Shards for the emergency FP when the residues are scarce. Spam the Magic Cocktail for sustaining. Do not hoard the residues. Make frequent use of skills to maintain the FP and trigger the combo spells. Every residue will help with the prolonged fights. Manage the stamina meticulously. Constant dodging and casting drains it faster. Also, equip the Talisman to boost stamina recovery. Time Recluse's ultimate in a wise way. Activate the Soulblood Song during the boss staggers or even the group fights. Marked enemies will become the HP sources, allowing your team to recover in the middle of the battle. Keep the backup weapons with you. Lightweight melee weapons and bows will help you when FP runs dry. The dagger with the elemental affinity could also generate the residues without the spells. Always position yourself with safety. The class's low HP means death lurking in the close quarters. Elden Ring Nightreign Recluse Gears: Relics, weapons and Talisman ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN | Recluse Character Gameplay Reveal Recluse's gear must maximize the magic output and also mitigate fragility. Seek Staves and Sacred Seals for sorceries and incantations. Give priority to the weapons that offer passives like resided spell FP cost, enhanced magic/holy damage, or improved casting speed. These can activate even when the weapon doesn't get actively swung. Remember, relics are vital. So, hunt for the ones marked like Vestige of Night, as it generates the Terra Magica when collecting residues and boosts the spell damage. You can even choose Grand Tranquil Scene, as it sacrifices the HP for the damage buff after the Soulblood Song is used, or Stat Boosts, as it focuses on Intelligence, Mind (FP), and Faith for maximizing the efficiency of the spell. Do not neglect the defensive relics that match the element of Nightlord. For the Talisman, choose Cerulean Amber Medallion for an expanded FP pool, Graven-School Talisman to boost the sorcery damage, and Faithful's Canvas Talisman to enhance the incantations. You can also choose Radagon Icon to shorten the casting time. Remember, the Recluse class demands precision, but it rewards aggressive spellcasting. It is by balancing the elemental variety, FP management, and smart ultimate usage that she can become one of the most potent damage deals in Nightreign. Just equip her with the right relics and ensure she exploits weaknesses. Let your magic decimate Nightlords.

Elden Ring Nightreign all classes and how to choose the best one
Image via FromSoftware. Elden Ring Nightreign is knocking at the door right now. This FromSoftware title was one of the most shocking announcements at The Game Awards 2024 as the long-hailed developing company has been never seen working in the field of co-op titles. That means Nightreign is going to be a new beginning. As the days go by, new details emerge regarding this upcoming game, and fans are getting more and more excited. That is why to raise the excitement even more, this guide comes in about all the details of the available classes in Elden Ring Nightreign. All classes in Elden Ring Nightreign As of now, six characters are confirmed in Elden Ring Nightreign. | Image via FromSoftware. Historically, FromSoftware has taken a far more flexible approach to typical RPG classes in games like Dark Souls and Elden Ring, where a player's beginning class is more of a suggestion or starting point than a rigid set of rules to follow. The same goes for Elden Ring Nightreign as well. Currently, there are six confirmed classes in the game, known as Nightfarer. Here are they: 1. Wylder Every multiplayer game has that one character who can do it all on its own or is the star of the show. Wylder is actually that character. For the new Soulslike players who are booting up the game for the first time, Wylder should have been the perfect choice. With weapons like Greatsword, Shield, and Grappling Hook, this has to be most balanced Nightfarer of the game. Abilities Claw Shot Sixth Sense Onslaught Stake 2. Guardian Guardians work in tandem with shields and are urged to retaliate and withstand strikes. In addition, he has a strong dive tank Ultimate Art with an AoE defense benefit and a dual-purpose stun-and-erase status effect clouds ability. This Tank character will be ideal for the players who are looking to get the most damage from the enemies for the allies. Abilities Whirlwind Steel Guard Wings of Salvation 3. Recluse Casting strong sorcery is the Recluse's main strategy for dealing a lot of damage and surviving. It is not recommended to get into melee range because they have very little HP and a good number of FP to use for spells. Recluse, Nightreign's primary spellcasting class, is most suited to using the majority of spells that a party encounters. Abilities Magic Cocktail Elemental Defense Soulblood Song 4. Duchess With an improved dodge, the ability to basically replicate teammates' attacks on an enemy with Restage, and an amazing rescue ability in Finale that renders allies invisible, the Duchess is all about illusion and evasion for players who want to play as Bloodborne hunters. Although her Restage ability is the true star of the show, her Ultimate Art makes close allies invisible, even during boss battles. Abilities Restage Magnificent Pose Finale 5. Ironeye Ironeye's entire set is built around nimble archery in Elden Ring Nightreign, yet bows and non-magic ranged builds are typically not very good in Elden Ring. The ability to pelt adversaries with arrows from a safe distance will be a huge advantage, even as Ironeye lacks any defensive or healing-based support abilities. Abilities Marking Eagle Eye Single Shot 6. Raider Raider is the ultimate Jaggernaut Brawler of the game. Raider is probably for you if you play a strength main most of the time. Raiders also seem to have a large leaping strike in which the ground erupts, sending them upwards and allowing them to crash down and topple foes. Any Strength-favoring Souls gamers will probably wind up in this Viking counterpart, which has a strong, super-armored character skill and an affinity for huge weaponry. Abilities Retaliate Fighter's Resolve Totem Stela How to choose the best class in Elden Ring Nightreign You have choose the right Elden Ring Nightreign class according to your playstyle. | Image via FromSoftware. This is actually a pretty tough question, because it's totally up to you on how you want to progress throughout the game. For example: If you like to play defensively, then you can go for Guardian anyday. On the other hand, if you like supporting the team from a far distance, then Ironeye will be your best bet. And if you want some action packed battle and lead your team into destroying enemy troops, then there is no better option than Raider. You can choose Wylder if you want an allrounder, or go for Recluse for its mystical prowess.
