Hey Bling enjoyers! 🗡️✨

As you can see, fashion always comes first—but as a Game Design student, I'm currently investigating the actual cost of our drip for my Bachelor’s thesis.

I’m running a short academic survey to analyze the exact trade-off players make between visual aesthetics (Elden Bling) vs. mechanical stats (damage negation/min-maxing) in Elden Ring.

If you love fine-tuning your outfit, I’d really appreciate 5 minutes of your time!

Thanks for helping out a fellow Tarnished and supporting my degree! What’s your ultimate fashion set? Let me know below! 🙌

hello rate these fits from my three playtroughs I think it’s in newest to oldest

I watched Christopher Nolan’s the odyssey a couple days ago and can’t stop thinking about Agamemnon’s armour. Does anyone have any ideas for what would look similar?

I just felt a drive to do something in earnest with the banana hat.

It's all comprised of the Queen's Crescent Crown, Alberich's Robe, Guardian Bracers, Messmer Soldier Greaves, and the Lion Greatbow

For more potassium, how would one go about making an avocado based knight...

My favorites are 2 and 4

Outfit:
Veteran's Helm
Beast champion armor unaltered
Royal knight gauntlet
Royal knight greaves

Sword - banished knight greatsword
Shield - carian knight shield

Mushroom Crown - Goldmask's Rags

Errant Sorcerer Manchettes - Leather Leg Wraps

They dont need to look exactly like the images, just give off the same feel, like realistic dark fantasy armour like Blasphemous and Trench Crusade or like Guts from Berserk

Drip:
Festive Hood (Altered)

Fingerprint set minus helm

Weapon:
Shadow Sunflower Blossom

Maliketh armor with Veterans chestplate

I’ve always had this problem of wanting my character to look special while also being able to look out of place if they were an npc like a member of Leda’s crew or a fellow tarnished you’d meet in the round table hold. I wanted to feel canon. The problem was, every cool looking armour in this game has some kind of organisation or important character behind it. Even the poster armour, the raging wolf set, isn’t our tarnished and neither is the armour on the cover art. And I didn’t really like mixing armour sets either because mixing armours from different factions isn’t what an npc would do. The closest thing I could get to this was the basic knight set as in the description it literally used to belong to a nameless knight. That or my personal favourite, the banished knight set completely unaltered as while yes you do see npc’s and enemies wear it, I don’t think there’s one that wear both the unaltered helmet and the unaltered chest piece together.
