For People Who Die Frequently, Elden Ring Nightreign’s Cord End Is a Lifesaver

Although it might take a different path than your typical path through Limveld, there is an item in Elden Ring Nightreign that can help fight the death penalty.

THEME

  • Those in Elden Ring Nightreign who deal with death on a regular basis will find the Cord End useful.
  • However, because it is a legendary drop and is dependent on the RNG, this item is difficult to find.
  • The only way to obtain the Cord End at the moment is through church item crates.

The death penalty in Elden Ring Nightreign may be more severe than in any other FromSoftware game. If you’re already close to reaching the maximum level of 15, it hurts because every death puts you back to level 1 and costs you runes.

Without a mechanism to address the flaws in their titles, a FromSoftware game wouldn’t be what it is today. This is the case with the death penalty in Elden Ring Nightreign. For people who frequently encounter death, there is a useful item.

The Cord End leads to a secret spot that Nightfarers scouting the perils of Limveld are sure to notice.

What function does Elden Ring Nightreign’s Cord End serve?

Since Cord End is a legendary item in Elden Ring Nightreign, its drop rate is incredibly rare, so start pleading with the RNG gods. North of the central Castle of Limveld, in the river, is a secret door that the Cord End is meant to open.

A message stating that the door “Only opens for those who wield merit” will appear if you attempt to open the stone door without the Cord End; only approach the hidden door if you have encountered one during your expedition.

The reward, which is three Sacrificial Twigs—another item that returns from Elden Ring—is located inside the secret door. In the original title, these items were located in the Atlus Plateau and Crumbling Farum Azula regions, and they were also difficult to locate.

Byf60V X, a user, found the purpose of the Cord End when he discovered the hidden stone door on the north side of the Central Castle:

In Elden Ring Nightreign, these Sacrificial Twigs provide much-needed protection from the death penalty by preventing you from losing all of your runes and a level upon death. They take up your Talisman slots, but unlike Talismans, they disappear after use.

To spread out the risk of dying and losing on your levels over three runs, if your team consists of three players, let your teammates have each of the Sacrificial Twigs. However, if you discover the Cord End and are pressed for time to get to the hidden door, you’re better off without it.

You can only use the Sacrificial Twigs while you’re still on day one. You get stronger and better items as you advance, such as the boluses. Nevertheless, swap out the Cord End for something more practical if you still have it at the end of day two or the start of day three.

It will be difficult to find the Cord End on your Limveld expeditions because it is a rare drop. The rarity of finding this legendary item in Churches’ item crates is another reason to visit the Churches in Elden Ring Nightreign.

These churches are a worthy landmark to visit in Limveld because their altars also offer extra Sacred Flasks to up your healing game. The Cord End will be lying around if you’re lucky.

The journey to locate the hidden stone door may or may not be worthwhile, depending on the day and remaining time, even though a visit to the churches is always worthwhile. With more valuable items, abandon the ship and go to Landmarks if it’s too late.
