Eldon Ring This can be an incredibly punishing game for those unaware of the dangers around them, especially during a PvP invasion. Just because you have a summoned friend by your side doesn’t mean you’re immune from misfortune.
A video posted on Twitter today attests to this, with an intruder running up to a pair of players trading items, Steal some very valuable loot from the ground. This includes the almost fully upgraded Relic Sword and Darkmoon Greatsword.
This video is by Twitter user ShikasClouds And embedded below, is an absolutely terrible watch. The relic sword suffered heavy losses, yes. But the stolen Darkmoon Greatsword is especially heartbreaking, as this weapon can only be picked up once per game. This means that victims of this theft are forced to either enter the new game+, or start a brand new save file in order to get it again.

Not only is it a great watch, but it’s also a valuable lesson not only for the players in the clip, but for those of us who comfortably watch after the fact. If you’ve made some brazen trades through the summoning system in Elden Ring and got hacked, pick up your items quickly! Worst case, summon your buddies again, but don’t risk losing your precious cargo.
