Elden Ring Nightreign offers a thrilling roguelike experience with its speedy gameplay, but unlocking all playable Nightfarer classes can be a challenge. To join the fight against the Nightlord with a full roster of characters, you’ll need to mix and match damage dealers, tanks, and supporting roles.
Among the six available Nightfarers when starting the game are Wylder, Guardian, Ironeye, Duchess, Revenant, and another two secret classes waiting to be unlocked. The Duchess is an agile attacker who excels with magic and dexterity boosts, making it a great addition to any team. To unlock her, obtain the Besmirched Frame relic by purchasing it for 1,500 Murk.
The Revenant, on the other hand, is a high-risk, high-reward character with high focus points and utility that allows her to shift focus away from herself and teammates. Her passive ability can spawn spirit summons of non-boss enemies, while her Summon Spirit class ability calls upon these spirits to aid in battle. The Revenant’s Immortal March ultimate ability makes herself and allies briefly immortal.
Once you’ve obtained the Besmirched Frame, a Lost Phantom will appear, leading you to a unique boss fight against the Night Idol. Defeating this boss with any Nightfarer, but particularly Ironeye, unlocks the Revenant, completing your stable of playable characters.
With all Nightfarers available, take on the Nightlord with ease and make the most of Elden Ring’s meta-progression systems. The game launched on May 30 for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Series S, and Xbox One consoles, priced at $40.
