An Elden Ring fan brought some laughter to the community by posting a clip that captures a showdown between the Godrick Soldiers and a rather peculiar pillar. This playful moment in the game matches the entertaining chaos players often encounter in Elden Ring and its expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree. Known for its difficulty and epic boss fights, the game provides endless surprises as more mods are developed, and players continue to experiment with inventive strategies, including the use of the Mimic’s Veil.
Initially released in 2022, Elden Ring takes players through the enchanting Lands Between as they navigate the role of the Tarnished on a quest to become the Elden Lord. By June 2024, the game expanded with a much-anticipated DLC, nominated for Game of the Year, which dived deeper into its rich narrative while introducing new formidable adversaries. Exciting developments for the upcoming Elden Ring: Nightreign in 2025 promise enhancements in co-op multiplayer, along with a network test and several new and familiar features as FromSoftware boldly expands the Soulslike genre.
A funny 41-second clip shared on Reddit by SkylarCute captivated the Elden Ring subreddit. The clip humorously shows Godrick Soldiers suspiciously eyeing a wandering pillar – actually, a player cleverly hidden by the Mimic’s Veil. Fans of Call of Duty: Black Ops might find this amusingly reminiscent of Prop Hunt, a popular mod that aligns well with Elden Ring’s Mimic’s Veil, offering a glimpse into just how delightful the game can be with creative use of its features.
In this adventurous tale, the Godrick Soldiers, who are a common sight in the world of Elden Ring, usually don’t fall for tricks. Yet, a Redditor viewing the scene remarked on how the enthusiasm of the soldiers toward the pillar was quite amusing. Some fans thought it would be perfect to edit in the exclamation and question marks from the Metal Gear Solid series into the scene, while others were curious why the player didn’t seize the chance for a surprise attack.
These Soldiers of Godrick represent humanoid adversaries in the action RPG, making up a significant part of Godrick the Grafted’s forces. Spotted primarily around Limgrave, Castle Morne, and the Tower of Return, players can even summon two of these soldiers with Godrick Soldier Ashes. The Stranded Graveyard in Elden Ring is not only a resource-rich area for players but also serves as a training ground, housing the Soldier of Godrick Field Boss.
