Summary

Elden Ring Nightreignbegins as it means to go on by kicking things off with a tutorial fight against Margit that you’re supposed to lose. However, there have already been hardened Tarnished determined to prove that they’re better than everyone else, and not only have they proven that Nightreign’s unbeatable tutorial is very much beatable, but there’s a relic waiting for you at the end of it as a reward.

PC Gamerhas not only shone a spotlight on the Nightreign tutorial discovery, but it has laid out the best route for players to follow should they want to try and beat it themselves. Odds are, if you’re reading a story about Nightreign, you’ve already gone through the tutorial and reluctantly let it beat you. There’s good news on that front, too, though.

Elden Ring Margit Boss

If you want to try your hand against tutorial Margit, fresh in the knowledge that he can be beaten after all, there’s a way to replay it even if you have already moved on to the full game. you’re able to find the tutorial replay option by perusingthe Visual Codex in the Roundtable Hold. It’s really buried in there, but if you want that relic, you’ll need to go find it.

You Just Aren’t Fighting Hard Enough

Don’t go getting any smart ideas thinking you’re able to return to the tutorial better prepared for the battle than you were the first time you fired up Nightreign. Regardless of what you have achieved since, you will always begin the tutorial as a low-level Wylder. There’s plenty of stuff to pick up on your way to getting reacquainted with Margit, though, so verify you’re better prepared this time.

Your reward is the Fell Omen Fetish, which probably isn’t the game-changing relic you were expecting for beating a supposedly unbeatable boss. Just like unbeatable FromSoft tutorials to have come before it, the real prize for beating Nightreign’s tutorial is pride in knowing you did something you weren’t supposed to.

Demon’s Soulsfeatures a similar situation. In thePlayStation-exclusive FromSoft title, beating The Vanguard at the beginning of the game when you’re not supposed to gets you a reward. There’s also a boss fight you’re supposed to lose at the start of the originalElden Ringthat doesn’t have a prize awaiting you at the end. The difference between those examples and Nightreign is since losing those tutorial fights is tied to the overarching story and questline, unlike Nightreign, you still need to die after.
