Katanas won againstall otherElden Ringweapons, with Bloodhound Step and Transient Moonlight being the most popular skills. Comet Azur, the sorcery that can defeat bosses in one hit when using specific items, was undoubtedly the most popular spell in the game.
Unsurprisingly, many fans voted for Mimic Tear Ashes as one of their favorite summons. It ranked at the top of this list, followed by Black Knife Tiche. UsingMimic Tear Ashes summons a copy of the player, and at launch, it was able to defeat some bosses on its own. While Mimic Tear Ashes was nerfed in Patch 1.03, it’s still incredibly effective and will likely remain a popular choice.
The survey asked readers to choose up to five bosses that left the biggest impression on them. Starscourge Radahn and Malenia came out on top, with just 29 points separating them. A similar question was asked about the regions andNPCs ofElden Ring, with Caelid and Ranni being the most popular choices in these categories.
