Tips
  • Godrick's Great Rune is arguably the best Great Rune in the game, raising all attributes by 5 when a Rune Arc is used.
  • This bonus is beneficial throughout the game, especially during boss fights, as it increases health, stamina, focus, and damage output.
  • When navigating the areas with ranged enemies and crossbows, consider using a ranged weapon to clear them out safely, or be prepared to sprint and dodge projectiles.
  • If you are a melee build, be prepared to sprint through dangerous areas, prioritizing dodging enemy attacks.
