A useful archive. Honest limits.

What this edition covers

6 complete PvE builds, 28 equipment records, 8 encounters and 5 field guides. The base game and Shadow of the Erdtree are labelled separately. This is a focused starting catalogue, not a complete wiki or a tier list.

The six RL150 spreads are mathematically checked against their starting classes and the requirements of their published loadouts. Each has early, middle and late progression, alternatives and encounter notes. Armor is an adaptable recommendation; an exact four-piece load calculation is not claimed.

Patch scope

The latest official Elden Ring patch found during research on 2026-10-04 was 1.17, released on 27 August 2026. Read the official patch notes.

Patch 1.17 includes Tarnished Pack support and selected balance adjustments. This catalogue uses the original starting classes and requires none of that separate pack’s new gear. Nightreign is a separate game and is outside this archive.

Sources & verification

Official Bandai Namco notes establish patch and expansion rules. Eldenpedia community reference entries support requirements, locations and mechanics. Some full wiki pages blocked automated access; accessible indexed excerpts informed research. Every material provides its own reference links.

Research date means a source-review session, not a gameplay test date. Recommendations and fight routines are editorial guidance. No damage benchmarks, controlled in-game tests, win rates, fake authors or “best build” rankings are claimed. A full patch-by-patch audit is pending.

The site validates internal links, class floors, level totals and published equipment requirements. That catches data errors, but does not establish combat performance. Readers should check their title-screen version and the linked references when a behavior differs.
