"To avoid being a fanboy: if a user says they have a problem, instead of acting as lawyers for Moonstudio, try to move on or avoid saying ‘it’s just your problem, you’re the one who’s wrong.’
I don’t understand the point of your interventions “in defense” of a problem. Try to be supportive and not champions of the developers.
If you enjoy falling down or like that mechanic, I don’t see the point of intervening to deny >>>my problem.
The weapon moveset makes you fall down, it’s undeniable. Saying it’s not true is nonsense, if you use a rune spell on the edge 90% of the time you fall, denying it is denying the truth."

"I’m not angry at all, but denying a problem doesn’t help anyone
Here’s the thing genuinely I’m asking this with 0 patronization what makes it a problem here and not in soulsbornes a genre which has been solidified for over 10 years now? Why should the devs take the complaints about falling in crucible more seriously and accomodate you guys vs fromsoft not accomodating it?
sorry, but i saw people in here giving suggestions on how to avoid the issues you describe. that is not being devils advocate, that is simply pointing out solutions from experience of other users.
and lets be real here: gravity is the hardest boss in sooooo many games. i can’t even count how many times i died to falling off in dark souls or dead cells. that is frustrating, but does not change the fact, that it can be avoided with more practice and map knowledge.
completely removing ledges is super boring imo. like playing on flat-earth. platforming, jumps and climbs are part of (good) level design, and yeah, falling off happens.
i honestly can’t understand how you guys in here attack each other and insult each other just for pointing out things and giving advice.
and i would like to remind everyone in here, that we should keep it respectful in here. stop insulting each other, please. i really do not want to delete posts because u go at each others throats. state your experience and opinion but please leave the insults out. thank you

In a 10hr sesh I think the only time I didn’t die from the boss at the end was from falling off a ledge and it was usually from attack animations. Still was only like 3-4 times and one time from a janky vine climb animation.

you can’t fall down from attacks in elden ring
this is a lie. stop. if you want i can do a video.
If a weapon’s moveset causes me to fall off a ledge - like a one-handed sword - suggesting ‘switch weapons’ isn’t a solution to the problem, it’s just a workaround. Telling a player who’s struggling to ‘git gud’ is both foolish and unhelpful.
have a nice day
What’s the point of this comment? Is it just bullying? Do you want to be the best?
You definitely can I have ER has ledge protection it does not prevent ALL attacks from making you fall off.
I don’t think anyone here denied weapon animations cause you to die, but this game isn’t an auto-battler YOU press the attack button you chose that weapon so you must adapt to it. It’s been a thing in Metroidvania, roguelikes, and now soulslikes for 20+ years. It punishes you for attacking at a bad time & place why is that such a big deal now of all times?
yes it does. when falling off would kill you, displacement from attacks will not make u fall. there is an invisible wall then.
if the drop is not deadly u fall of when attacking, but that does not matter in this discussion, does it.
Ohhh so the times I fell and died it was cause of low health + fall damage gotcha
Go make that video, it will only prove my point.
Since I don’t appreciate my points being taken out of context, this is the full quote:
Some weapon move sets have your character moving forward but YOU as player are the one pressing the buttons. So, if you stand too close to an edge and fall into the edge due to YOU attacking with a weapon with a forward momentum. Then that is 100% YOUR fault.
I myself use Summer’s Sting (2h Greatsword) which also features a forward momentum on attacks. I calculate that into my attacks and make sure I don’t stand too close to a ledge. If there are a lot of enemies around a ledge I simply use Eruption (AOE Rune) to kill them all. This rune one shots all trash mobs and larger enemies require 1-3 additional hits.
On another note, I resent the mischaracterization and lie that I simply said ‘git gud’ when in fact, I have given you plenty of advice to get good at overcoming Wicked’s most insidious killer - ledges.
I’ll reiterate my tips for dealing with ledges:
- Play patiently and analyse the situation relative to your character and formulate a plan
- Don’t fight near ledges and reposition to a wider area if possible
- If ledges are unavoidable, fight parallel with the ledge and avoid attacking towards a ledge
- Or one shot enemies with a rune attack if they are near a ledge
- Some enemies stand near a ledge so wait until they turn their back to you or anticipate their attack and dodge
- Take your time and don’t mindlessly hit the attack button as some move sets have your character moving forward, create space between yourself and the ledge
- Have enough poise defense to override enemy attack patterns to prevent them knocking you off
- Off-hand weapon with blink rune to reposition
- AOE rune with I-frames → Eruption for 2h weapons to just one-shot them, if they are larger enemies they require 1-3 more auto attacks
- Ranged weapon to damage enemies from afar
- Shove enemies of ledges by wearing heavy armor
- Weapon throw rune adds a ranged option and also staggers enemies
Wilfully choosing to ignore this helpful advice is what I would consider foolish…

regular attacks you won’t fall, some AOW won’t make you fall too, i would be ok if they at least would implement not falling while doing a regular attack.
Then I concede that fromsoft did this but ONLY for ER and no other game. And here’s the thing I do NOT like Elden Ring, I personally very much so hate the hand holding of that game
Your post is too nuanced and nice he’s just gonna insult you and leace it at that
I wouldn’t bother replying anymore he’s definitely just left fhe forums, anybody whose the type to just write 1-2 sentences to a nuanced topic is impossible to argue with
