One Elden Ring invader is able to get the upper hand on their prey and take advantage of the situation when the hosts really ought to have known better. When it comes to Elden Ring, players are typically required to approach PvP combat in a very different manner than they do the game's PvE combat. This is because PvP and PvE combat in the game have very different objectives. When you engage in combat with normal enemies that are controlled by NPCs, you can expect them to behave in a manner that is consistent with their artificial intelligence and the programming they have been given. In spite of the fact that there is always a possibility that aberrations will occur, the enemies in Elden Rings can often be anticipated with reasonable accuracy. The majority of the time, these anomalies take the form of bugs or situations in which enemies, like the Ulcerated Tree Spirit, are able to grab players even when they are shielded by walls. Because real people are participating in player versus player (PVP) combat in a game, this is not as much of an issue because real people frequently think creatively and outside the box when they are playing.
In many circumstances, it can be difficult to get a head start on the hosts; however, it does not appear that this is the case here
1. When it comes to player-versus-player combat, the Mimic Veil is one of the most useful tools in Elden Ring's arsenal
2. It is an item that, in exchange for a certain number of focus points, enables players to transform themselves into specific objects that are located throughout the environment
3. There are genuine tactical applications for it, as shown by the numerous instances in which Elden Ring players were able to get the upper hand on others thanks to the utilization of it
4. These instances demonstrate that there are genuine tactical applications for it
5. There are legitimate strategic uses for it, despite the fact that most of the time players just use it to mess around or have some fun with it
6. In spite of this, the host in this story ought to have been on the lookout for telltale signs that someone else was using Elden Ring's Mimic Veil when they came across the obvious user of the item
7. A video showing them invading the world of another host was posted by the user derpageddon to the thread r/Eldenring on the social networking website Reddit
During the course of the video, they take a ride in an elevator and turn the fake veil into a hanging brazier before pressing the button to stop the elevator and moving into position. This entire sequence of events happens before the person presses the button. After the elevator has arrived at the floor where the hosts are staying, they merely step inside without paying any attention to the peculiar object that is also located on the elevator. The intruder has ample opportunity to attack the players and take their lives, which they do not too long after the elevator has stopped moving. One of the players exits the elevator as it descends, but the other does not. The victorious invader makes a comment in the game's title about how they were under the impression that the host would notice them after the host has been eliminated from the game. In point of fact, it shouldn't come as a surprise to the players that they don't notice anything fishy going on in many of the more cunning circumstances of a Mimic Veil ambush. For example, there was the time when an intruder pretended to be a coffin in the Lake of Rot, and the players didn't notice anything fishy going on.
However, it is very strange to see players not giving any consideration at all to this subject matter. Because of this, player versus player combat is infamous for its high degree of unpredictability. On the one hand, a player may face invaders that employ cunning strategies to defeat their opponents, such as the time an Elden Ring invader turned themselves into a living furnace. On the other hand, a player may not face invaders that employ cunning strategies to defeat their opponents. On the other hand, there are some players who do not approach Elden Ring with the utmost caution, and this is something that many player versus player invaders look for as an opportunity to take advantage of.
