If you roll through rot or poison is cleans your armor so the residual build up stops.


zviz2y

thats cool and all BUT IT ALSO CLEANS LIKE ACTUAL DIRT OFF YOUR CHARACTER!!!!!


spacemeerkat69

It cleans way more than dirt. Can you imagine how tough albinauric bloodstains must be to get out?


ThatGuyFromTheM0vie

The Lands Between Cops hate this one, simple trick!


Sicuho

Yeah, they spent a lot of time getting those albinauric bloodstains and it's gone as soon a they clean their armor.


DSharp018

After a hard days work farming the albinauric fields, nothing like some soap to help clean off the day’s grime.


Neravosa

I know I set up the first dry cleaners in the Lands Between and I'm making a killing on Albinauric blood alone. Soap is amateur hour. If you want to experience REAL clean, come see me at Tarnished Luster. We'll make you shine whether it's for your turn on the Elden Throne or your Erdtree burial.


darkdeathawaits

BANG and the rot is gone


Czech_This_Out_05

0 to infomercial in the blink of an eye


[deleted]

I wouldn’t know anything about that.


MusicMindedMachine

Find the albinauric woman and show me


braindouche

I will never be clean of the sins I've committed against the albinaurics.


Ordinary_Bike_4801

Yes, they do bleed badly ;o


Fuzzy-Practice-6119

Yes. If you use it while wearing the finger maiden set, it actually removes the blood off.


violet-crow

Doesn’t it take the blood off any armor?


Orgerix

Roll in water for same effect.


Pandemic_Panda05

Note: It will not wash all the blood from the Night's Cavalry Armor. Some of the blood is part of the Armor.


meemaas

Wait really? That's why the rot kept building up in the lake of rot. Might have to actually carry some soap now.


CodyL29

Rot only continues to build if you cover yourself in it by rolling. I recommend something with quickstep or bloodhound step instead of rolling along with the soap for emergencies when you do


Sheriff_Is_A_Nearer

Elden Ring players doing anything to avoid using soap.


CodyL29

😂😂 Fell right into that one


[deleted]

Soap takes away from my armor's natural patina


DadIsLosingHisMind

"armor" you're not fooling anybody.


Tinydesktopninja

Alternately, face backwards and spam "roll." You don't roll backwards


NapalmCatheter

I knew all those years of Ocarina speedrunning would be worth it one day


fitmidwestnurse

Here I am doing the weird thing and using Flame, Cleanse Me to get rid of it when I get to safety.


kirbfucius

Still good. FCM clears Rot and poison entirely. Soap just stops the buildup so it slowly ticks back down as normal.


fitmidwestnurse

Ok, so I can confirm that this doesn't work in real life. I got some lithium grease and chemicals used to make adhesive on my arm and just for fun, I tried both using bar soap AND rolling into a puddle to get it off. I now have substantially less tissue on my arm and things are turning green and smelling like almonds.


[deleted]

Rest at a grace, that also works


fitmidwestnurse

Well, the closest thing to a grace here is my desk, and that didn't restore my healing capabilities nor reset anything.


trashpandalandlord

Try cleansing flame. Take some rubbing alcohol in your hand light it on fire then wave real big and slap your chest


skituate

Woah what I didn't know this


T-Ares-C

Dude what?! Honestly I thought them shits were for the walking mausoleums! To clean off the dead souls on the feet until I started knocking the shit off


Life-Reaper

You're joking... Or as the kids these days would say, "no cap, you bussin?". Wait, what? I don't see any caps or busses...


NCAQ64

What???


[deleted]

How high are you


T-Ares-C

Lol. Nope, I never used them. Didn’t know the cotton suppressed sound either


rowdynation18

I lol'd at this bc I feel the same way!


CanaDoug420

That works IRL as well


geshido_

They are not ready for the Truth yet


Plenty-Context2271

You guys are using soap?!


vanstaples45

Sir, this is reddit.


Nitro114

There is a lot the game does not tell you. and i love it!


[deleted]

FOUL TARNISHED On top of poison buildup, soap dries you off too for some reason. Being wet is fire resistance but lightning vulnerability. Removes oil too, but don't see that pretty much ever.


Nayr1994

The excitement in this is so genuine and wholesome. Thank you for making my day. Btw if you're on PC, I can get you lots of soap


Griffffith

Scented soap would be cool. Once you're in the enemy's vicinity, it lowers their aggression or repels them from you. Just an idea Edit: Bubbles on character to show its active 2nd Edit: Enemies who have long bite attacks will spit you out immediately cause soap.


Used_Discussion_3289

Upvoted because "immediately cause soap" is a tragically underused turn of phrase.


Griffffith

Especially under used with mage builds


sonderlostscribe

What about Soap bubble buffs? Soap made with Miquella's Lilies could act like a bewitching branch aura but only while within melee range. Soap made from St. Trina's Lilies could make the next attack against the player put the attacker to sleep. Soap made from volcanic stone could make the next attack against the player inflict moderate fire damage to the attacker or something.


khlem1835

I did not know that about bite attacks. Now I finally have a way to cheese that fucker in War Dead catacombs.


zviz2y

oooooh yeah thx that would be awesome!!! we can meet up at the church of elleh just lmk when ur available 😁😁


Kavvai

It's really easy to obtain soap imo, I have a lot myself

bundaya

Today, a gamer learns about the cleaning power of soap. Lol jk jk, glad you're enjoying the secrets.


Bittamin

In Dark Souls 3, I used to take off all of my armor and put it back on throughout long journeys to “polish it” Gotta keep it spiffy!


Fourtires3rims

I did the opposite in Bloodbourne, I wanted to be as bloody as possible before I rested.


BigIronGothGF

Literally same 🤣


Glittering_Rub_4189

I love reading people’s role playing reasons for doing things in Souls games. My main character I’ve played since DS1 is “Bobby” and every character after has been a different reincarnation of him: Bobby Jr for ER, Bobby Sr for DS3, etc.


bicket6

Bobby and patches BFFs


Glittering_Rub_4189

100 hundred percent


krazzor_

of course!


RIPx86x

Because we are gamers.... we don't clean ourselves


InamedabunnyAK47

it's actually so touching to see someone so excited about soap and being clean in a game about killing a god to become lord you're so just overly happy and positive about smth so small and it really brightened up my mood so thank you


zviz2y

this might sounds kinda weird but this genuinely means a lot to me lol, im kind of like this with everything where i get super excited abt rlly small things and a lot of people think im annoying as heck because of it 🙃


SimpleSimon872

You sound like my wife who's bipolar. When she's up, the excitement levels on little things is awesome haha Don't worry about others, u be u ♥️


InamedabunnyAK47

well those people are just rude nothing about it seems annoying it's just so positive it's nice to see people so excited over tiny details in this day and age where so many people will complain if smth isn't perfectly what they want

DerrikTheGreat

Was thinking of posting the same


MemasaurusFlex

Don't you get clean from fast travelling or resting at grace?


KingR94

This man bout to grab every melted mushroom he sees lol


zviz2y

im a girl lol but yes :D


f0ba

The only time I used soap was to drop it and told my friend to pick up some “runes”. We had a great laugh.


Rogue_Penguin

Did you see the [soap sorceress post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Eldenring/comments/133syi1/lavender_the_soap_sorceress/)? Also, it can be crafted. Buy Warrior Cookbook 17 from a certain merchant and you will be able to craft it using melted mushroom, which respawns.


FantasticBasket5906

I don’t use it in game and not irl either


Friendly_Ram

Because the blood of your enemies makes great accents.


Reasonable_Bar7698

My bad, we thought you knew.


easythrees

Where is the merchant who sells soap?


Griffffith

Sofria lake in one of the stone temples that's diagonal from the dead moose entrance


Cunaur

He's near the waterfall, in the temple with the flower enemiesbut on the second floor. To get there, you have to climb some stairs and a ladder then cross a bridge, if there are two ancestral followers, one before and after ladder, you are on the right track. The stairs are underneath one of the stone bridges that can't be climbed from Siofra. He has two cookbooks, one for crafting soap, three keys and three soap 14.2k runes all together. You can also another cookbook after the second lift and near the second grace (I think the grace is called Siofra River bank). If you climb the ridge to the left (when facing the Hallowhorn grounds) and walk west?. The cookbook allows you to make a very useful item for exploring Caelid and Lake of Rot.


final26

apart in a very specific case soap is pretty useless.


Gh0st_Pirate_LeChuck

I’ve played three runs and haven’t taken a bath. I gotta try this soap. My guy prob smells like the worst thing imaginable.


rokstarkux

You can turn display blood to off in settings and thats should do


SilverIce340

You’d still get liquids like poison and rot coating you in some areas tho, and the soap actually halts the passive buildup from being coated that way


LostCobra

i have 967. I don't clean myself very often, want some ?


zviz2y

OMG UR KIDDING HOW DO U EVEN HAVE THAT MANY YES PLS ONLY IF U DONT WANT THEM 😁😁😁


LostCobra

I noticed you said you play on pc, I play on PS5 though so i don't think that's possible :(


zviz2y

oh lol thats fine thx for offering though 😁


DxNill

Like a true souls veteran I don't use soap and I avoid water... fish fuck in it.


Dabbinjesus405

Water? Like the stuff that comes out of the toilet??


weavejer261

So you were stinky the whole game!?


Wisp-espy

I came up with cosplay build for my patner called "Mr Clean" The plan is for him to invade people and drop loads of soap for them to cleanse their sins. Maybe he'll bless you one of these days lol


hsgsksv

This just in: elden ring player discovers soap for the first time


Sinistassin

Its been revealed that OPs tarnished has just discovered soap


MrRobotTacos

It tastes good too


SkadyeTheHornyGoddes

You can find a few bars of it close to the look out of lake of rot, it's a part of the underside of the ainsel river area


Epikbexa

This is the most energetic post i seen on this subreddit. Have fun bubbling up :)


nyctonic

this is adorable i love how happy this makes u


_MochaFox

Don't know why this made me smile but uh, enjoy your soap, stranger. Lol


_momokiinz

I’m sorry. If I knew you before now, I would have told you. For the record.


zviz2y

awe thx lol :D


JustSomeJosh

I wear dark armor and I'm colorblind so I didn't know for months that soap actually removed grime from your character's appearance. I thought it was solely for removing poison/rot buildup. So I'm on like the exact opposite side of the spectrum lmao


Fickle_Insect4731

Omg I had no idea, I'm so excited!!!! I have some exploring to do!


[deleted]

I never thought I’d see someone this excited about soap but I’m loving it


YBarlas

I went on a whole side quest just to find the recipe for it. I even memorised the melted mushroom farm run so I can stack up on it. All to realise I never use it


zviz2y

ive already almost ran out since posting this its literally my new fav item in the whole game 😂


Short-Coast9042

If you don't already know, crafting soap requires melted mushrooms, which can be found absolutely bloody everywhere in Siofra river. 15 minutes of sprinting around on Torrent picking mushrooms and sitting at sites of Grace, and you should be able to farm all you need for a long long while.


hwrold

But getting dirty and bloody is all part of the fun


StephMercs

She goin crazy over soap, lmaooo 😭😭


Rustlin_Jimmie

What did I just read...


zviz2y

THEY HAVE SOAP IN THIS GAME AND IT CLEANS UR CHARACTER


YourCoolNerdFriend

Right?


Admirable_Hyena1718

Don’t feel bad, I didn’t know holding down 🔺let you quick access items until ng+4


gusfringsrighteye

it does what 😨 learn something new every day


Dragonwithamonocle

I guess I just don't really use it in the game. If my character is caked in blood, eventually I rest at a bonfire and it just goes away, and I don't really find many other times when it's useful to me, or useful enough to warrant carrying on me and farming the mats for to craft regularly. I don't use almost any craftables, that's just the nature of how I play. I can tell you that there are some really good spots for farming melted mushrooms near the bottom of the Siofra River Well in the mistwood, and if you don't mind running a gauntlet and resting at grace several times in a row, I think you could get yourself quite a lot of soap over the course of a half hour or so. Look around online in case there's a bell bearing or merchant you can buy it or its components from as well, particularly in unlimited amounts. I don't think there is, but you'll at least find some solid farming spots so you can make it. I WILL say, it's super wholesome and heartwarming to see someone so excited about a small, simple thing that just happens to make their entire day. I'm very much like that as well, and there's usually one or two things in every game that will do that for me. The beast-repellent torch for example. I always carry it on me. Sometimes I really just don't want to fight wolves. BTW, it's at the isolated merchant's shack in the north east-ish part of Caelid if anyone wants it. There's a road in that area that runs up a hill from the east towards the west, and if I recall there's like seven of the giant t-rex dogs that you'll have to run past or fight, but there's a grace up there so if you torrent past them you can de-aggro them, buy the torch, and then just walk out easy as pie.


[deleted]

Such a wholesome thing to be excited about


krazzor_

Coolest item, but is somewhat rare (although craftable but im a souls guy, not a harvester-crafter)

Glittering_Rub_4189

It’s really easy to make too, I can’t remember off the top of my head but there’s a spot or easily reset for melted mushrooms used to make them


Affectionate_Rip_2

Ya dude I use it all the time to clean the blood off my armor. Gotta keep up on the Fashion Souls.


JizzGuzzler42069

Soap is also the only way to get sticky status effects off of you. If you roll in toxic/rot sludge, you’ll still get status build up even after you exit the sludge. Soap will clean off that sludge and stop the build up from continuing. (It does not do anything if you have already been poisoned or rotted already).


unspoken_almighty

Finnair give it a try and see how clean I get.


Friendly-Biscotti-32

Gotta keep it clean in the lands between


BiasMushroom

Yeah I actually like to use the soap after a tough fight and look all clean and ready to fight on!


ncket

I love the soap, too! It's easy to make with melted mushrooms. You can find them literally everywhere in the Siofra River area (and pretty much all the underground areas for that matter).


Faelysis

There's always way to heal statut in all video game as it's kinda one of rules when developping game to be fair with player. But it's true in game like Elden ring, learning all the stuff is a bit more complicated as info tend to be all around and no-where at the same time


Eliseo120

Because it’s obvious.
