Elden Ring Status Effects

In Elden Ring, as you progress through the game, you will encounter various effects that affect your character's performance in battle. These effects can be worse than others and hinder you during fights. Status effects result from a buildup of specific attacks that cause their effect. This can be indicated with a Gauge Meter, which will inflict the status ailment to the player or the enemy when filled. Some effects gradually disappear, while some disappear at once without the need for the bar to decrease. You can not have the same effect applied to you if it already affects you.

There are a few different Effects you can encounter in Elden Ring, and these have- as said before, have different effects on the player or enemies inflicted with it. Some might slowly drain your life, such as Poison, or some might render you powerless by having you fall asleep in the middle of combat. Various enemies can inflict these statuses, and you can even inflict these statuses on enemies using special weapons. One of the most effective and easiest ways to cure any status effect is to visit a Site of Lost Grace. Sites of Grace not only provide you with a moment's rest, but they also allow you to recover HP and FP completely.
