whats the very good stone?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 2 weeks ago

In the game, there are stones that you can find, and when you use them, they say something. There's no voice chat in the games, so these can be used to communicate

Your character doesn't speak per say, so you usually are limited to gestures for interacting with other players.

The stone refers to a series of items thatve been around since dark souls 1 where you drop a magic stone and a voice comes out saying the line. In dark souls 1 and some others it was a rock you dropped and it broke open making sound, so the "stone" term stuck.

In elden ring it's called a "prattling pate: 'voice line here'". Your character blows into it like a flute kinda and the line is spoken.

Basically the guy showed up, said "damn ur fashion is on point" then left :)
