Summary
Elden Ringis one of thebiggest games of all time. However, despite its overwhelming success, there are some achievements that the majority of players have not gotten their hands on. There are many reasons that a player might not have an achievement yet.
This can be due to astaggering number of collectibles, an optional fight that they would rather skip, or requires multiple playthroughs. WhileElden Ringoffers a lot of replayability, some players would rather play through the entirety of the game once and be content with just one of the game’s multiple endings.
10Dragonlord Placidusax
Defeated Dragonlord Placidusax
Players who give up on the game early will never see this boss, as it only comes much later in the game.Players can find this bossby first heading to theBeside the Great Bridge site of grace. They can then drop from a specific ledge and interact with a prompt to be teleported to the boss arena.
This boss will also offer a remembrance, but its rune count dwarfs the previously mentioned boss reward with a whopping 280,000 runes. As one would imagine, this boss is no pushover.

Achieved the “Lord of Frenzied Flame” Ending
This is often referred to as “the bad ending” by many players. It is an ending of destruction, bringing ruin to the worldthrough the Frenzied Flame. This ending requires players to reject the option of becoming the Elden Lord, and instead become the Lord of the Frenzied Flame.

Obtained All Achievements
%of all players:10 Percent
This achievement is obtained purely by doing all the other achievements. Some might think an achievement such as this does not deserve a place on this list, as it is merely a compilation of other tasks. However, even if it is not the most interesting one on the list, it is objectively the least obtained one.
This also means many players will find themselves having to do multiple playthroughs to get every ending in the game, as each of them will have a different achievement.
