Elden Ring is a game full of monstrosities that are out to kill the player. Most of the time, killing these enemies is fairly straight-forward; all players have to do is deplete their health bar. Enemies typically stay dead until the next time the player rests at a Site of Grace, but there are some enemies in the game that are a little trickier. Elden Ring skeletons, for example, come back to life shortly after their health bar is removed, robbing some players of getting any runes for their encounters with them.

Now that Elden Ring has been out for nearly a month, fans know that for skeletons to try stay dead, they need to hit them again before they can reconstruct themselves. However, it can be tricky to get the angle right, especially when fighting numerous undead all at the same time. Luckily, there is an armor set that Elden Ring players can get that makes killing skeletons in the game a little easier than usual.

As pointed out by Reddit user Sakichronicles, Elden Ring players can roll on top of dismantled skeletons to kill them, assuming they have the Briar Set equipped. The Briar Set is an armor set that players will obtain fairly late in the game. It requires players to not only reach The Shaded Castle, but also kill the Elemer of the Briar boss located there.

Once Elden Ring players have reached The Shaded Castle and defeated Elemer of the Briar, the next step is returning to the Roundtable Hold. In the Roundtable Hold, Elden Ring players can speak with the Palm Reader to purchase the Briar Set in exchange for runes. The entire gimmick of the Briar Set is that wearing it makes it so rolling deals damage, and if players manage to acquire the Briar Helm, Briar Armor, Briar Gauntlets, and Briar Greaves, they'll do even more damage.

Elden Ring players that are already in New Game+ likely don't need to worry about tricks like these to help take on the game's enemies, but those who are still relatively new to the game may benefit. Those who are fighting skeletons before they reach The Shaded Castle will just have to rely on attacking them with their usual weapons, however.

Moving forward, it's possible that FromSoftware could add even more ways for Elden Ring players to dispatch their enemies. Elden Ring updates are released on a regular basis, and there are rumors that DLC is on the horizon as well. However, that has not been confirmed by FromSoftware just yet, so fans should keep their expectations in check.

Elden Ring is out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
