Elden Ring players have a lot of choices when it comes to what builds they want to craft or what weapons they want to use. Developers did a great job in adding a wide array of weapon types, abilities, Sorceries, and Talismans. Those that are looking to create a build centered around Poison or Scarlet Rot have a lot of great weapon and ability choices to help them craft the perfect setup. There's even a strong Talisman that can be paired with these damage-over-time abilities to create the perfect storm of chip damage and raw power.

Once players make their way to the cave, they'll need to head through it until they eventually come across the boss door, triggering a fight against the Kindred of Rot (Duo) . This particular boss can be a headache depending on a player's build, as these enemies are difficult enough in the field.

The boss version is definitely an upgrade and players will need to make sure they are focusing on one of the twins while simultaneously keeping an eye on the other. It's a tough fight for those that are lower-leveled (or the appropriate level, even) but the battle gets much, much easier after one of the twins is defeated and only one remains.
