Elden Ring can be quite challenging, especially for newcomers to its beautiful yet dangerous world. That's why it's essential to learn a few tricks to make the journey more manageable. One way to do that is by ensuring a character has enough Health (HP) to withstand even the most brutal attacks. Generally, the larger a Tarnished's health bar, the longer they'll survive under the pressure of enemy attacks, spells, and projectiles, giving players more room for error.
