Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Character Customization Guide

Character Appearance Customization

In Elden Ring, players have the option to re-customize their character's appearance. This can be done using a mirror located in the Roundtable Hold. By accessing this mirror, players can make visual tweaks to their character without affecting gameplay attributes [1:1][1:2]. However, respec options are not available through this feature [1:3].

Fashion and Cosmetic Options

The game offers alternate outfits for characters that are purely cosmetic. Players will be able to earn these cosmetics by playing as preset heroes, but the customization is limited to aesthetics rather than altering the fundamental character design [2:1][2:2]. There are eight playable characters, each with an unknown number of alternate outfits [2:3].

Desired Customization Features

Players have expressed interest in more detailed customization options, such as thick cloaks, dyeable clothes, diverse textures, and the ability to layer clothing items [3:1]. Additional desires include backpacks, sacks, and accessories like belts and scabbards [3:2]. Tattoo options beyond facial designs and unique features like closing one eye were also mentioned [3:5][3:7].

Character Template Reuse

For those looking to reuse a character design from a previous playthrough, Elden Ring allows players to save their character template at the mirror in the Roundtable Hold [4:1]. If saved, this design can be used when creating a new character [4:3]. However, if the design was not saved initially, players would need to manually recreate it [4:3].

Modding for Extended Customization

Players interested in extending hair options or adding new styles can explore mods for Elden Ring. While specific links were not provided, mods like the Convergence mod have been noted for offering unique hairstyles inspired by characters like Rennala and Miquella [5]. These mods can enhance the customization experience for players seeking more variety in character design.

Respec? Not that I've found yet. Change character appearance? Surprisingly, yes. There's a mirror in Roundtable Hold.

I'm not the end all be all though. I'm not that far yet. Still bashing my head against a wall named spider in Stormveil.

  • texture diversity for clothes (I want to see brocade, silk, satin etc, quilted doublets etc.)
  • ability to layer clothing items
  • better hair physics and texture work; long hair options in CC
  • belts, and scabbards customization.

I doubt many of these will make it in the game.

Nope! When you start a character, the sliders you used literally explode, disappear, and may never be used again, not just by you, but by every other player connected to the network!

When you create a new character it will give you the option to save the design. If you did can pull that in when creating another new character. If not you would have to manually go through and create the character to look like that.

Cosmetic mod question

Posted by ragdo111 · in r/EldenRingMods · 8 days ago

Hello! I’ve recently picked up Elden Ring after a while now and have been wondering if there was a mod to extend the hair options (or add new options).

I really liked Rennala’s hair (long and wavy) in the Convergence mod, and generally love styles like Miquella’s long hair when he was in his child form.

Is there a mod out there that adds long, wavy hair for tarnished during character customization? If so, could you please share a link or anything you know about it?

Thank you very much. Sincerely, someone who cares way too much about character customization

It's not really any more in-depth now than it was say, 6 months ago. They're focused on improving the actual gameplay and performance for the time being.

There was a preview of some new hats in the last steam news update but they aren't in the game yet and aren't planned to be introduced for a while. You can actually see what they're working on currently on the game's public trello board, which is pretty neat.

During the last survey, they showed more customization options, but i don't remember seeing anything about a system as deep as the finals.

However, it was possible to make this suggestion on the last page, which i did.

Don't get your hopes up. You can suggest the change in feedback channels, but don't trust the people saying they are "sure" and "confident" we'll have fully customizable cosmetic slots for characters.

What was in the tech test was quite fleshed out. It would take a crazy amount of work to rework the system. Maybe they are putting their heads down and grinding to make it happen, but it's unlikely.

I've seen the sentiment multiple times in this subreddit that some people are "sure" it's been fixed and that they are confident the cosmetic system has changed, with no confirming information past vibes.

Character Creation Tips Day 3: Facial Proportions, Sister Slides, and Tips For Beginners

Posted by [deleted] · in r/EldenBling · 2 years ago
post image

Continuing on character creation tips of the day, I wanted to help assist those who may be struggling with sliders or proportions:

For beginners, take any basic starting model and set all sliders to 128. Setting the sliders halfway will create a pretty well proportioned face with a neutral expression. If you are more of a beginner with sliders, try to start out by making something basic. Don't try to make game, movie, irl people characters when you're first starting out etc. Just focus on making a face that could pass for a human being. This will help you to understand how the sliders work.

Sliders and Their Sisters/Twins:

FromSoftware's character creator can be frustrating but very rewarding. Unfortunately you can't just change one slider without it warping another aspect of the face. It's annoying but hey, we gotta deal with it. Every slider has what I like to call a "sister or twin" slider. Some sliders have multiple twins that you have to adjust. I've listed below each slider and their corresponding twins:

1.) All sliders under Facial Balance will change the brows, eyes, nose, forehead, lips, cheeks, mouth. The facial balance sliders are what I like to call your "overall" slides, meaning that all of them will change every aspect of the face.

2.) Forehead sliders, specifically depth and protrusion will make the forehead larger or smaller. This actually will warp the nose, eyes and eyebrows as well.

3.) Nose Bridge Height/Bridge Protrusion 1 and 2/Nose Bridge Width will change the eyes, nose, brows and the facial expression your Tarnished has. These are critical sliders to learn.

4.) Brow Ridge sliders will specifically go hand in hand with the eyes. Brow ridge height at 128 will create a neutral expression. Brow ridge height at 0 will tilt the inner corners of the eyes down and slightly move them further apart. A brow ridge height set at 255 will pull the eyes inwards a bit and also add more of a stern expression to a face.

5.) Eye sliders will go hand in hand with nose, mouth and brow sliders. The more you lower the eyes, it will push the face up and out horizontally making it look fuller. The more you raise the eyes, the face, nose, and mouth will stretch inwards and up vertically.

6.) All nose and nostril sliders will change everything on the face. Meaning nose sliders will go hand in hand with cheeks, lips, mouth, jaw, forehead.

7.) All cheek sliders will change all other aspects of the face. Same as 6.

8.) All mouth and lip sliders will directly affect the jaw and chin.

What I recommend is to pick a random starting model, make it bald and start adjusting things not only head on, but from the sides as well. I can't stress how important this is. This will provide you a full 360 degree view on what is changing on the face. Try moving the sliders back and forth from 0 to 255. You'll start seeing things you've never noticed.

In addition to this, I have included two pictures that I used to reference as a guide for facial proportions when I was first starting out trying to learn the sliders. Credit for the pictures goes to a site called Famitsu. Hopefully this helps.

Happy Sliding!

-Chrissy

This is an absolutely fantastic write-up, genuinely.

One question though: What purpose does form emphasis serve? Other than making my character's face look like an aggravated owl if I push the slider to 255, of course.

6 upvotes on reddit
[deleted] · 2 years ago

Thank you so much, I'm glad you find it informative. Form emphasis will slightly pull the whole character's face inward. Let's say you want to have a female character that has a fuller cheeks. But you don't want the face to look swollen. You can set form emphasis between 10-20 to slightly pull the face in and offset it. I guess you can refer to it as sharpening almost if that makes sense. That's another one of those overall sliders that I don't touch until last minute touches.

Still looks a bit retrognathic to me but definitely better than the default weak ass chin all these games have.

Looking closer maybe I'm tricked by the gamer neck posture

2 upvotes on reddit
grievousx · 2 years ago

It's probably the janky FromSoft nose + forehead combo making it look receded and small. If we shrunk the top half of the face a bit and brought the nose up a little higher, the chin and mouth would look totally fine. Also the weirdly thick neck in profile doesn't help sell how far the jaw protrudes, unless you make a character with a massive mandible lmao

Key Considerations for Character Customization in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

  1. Class Selection:

    • Choose a starting class that aligns with your preferred playstyle (e.g., Warrior for melee, Sorcerer for magic).
    • Each class has unique stats and starting equipment, so consider what you enjoy most.
  2. Attributes:

    • Focus on leveling up attributes that complement your build. Common attributes include:
      • Strength: For heavy melee builds.
      • Dexterity: For faster weapons and ranged attacks.
      • Intelligence/Faith: For magic or faith-based builds.
    • Balance your attributes based on your weapon and spell choices.
  3. Weapons and Equipment:

    • Experiment with different weapons to find what suits your playstyle. Consider the scaling of weapons with your attributes.
    • Equip armor that provides the best balance between protection and mobility. Heavier armor offers more protection but can reduce your agility.
  4. Talismans and Spells:

    • Choose talismans that enhance your build (e.g., boosting damage, increasing stamina recovery).
    • Select spells that complement your combat style, whether offensive or defensive.
  5. Appearance Customization:

    • Take advantage of the character creation tools to customize your character's appearance. You can adjust facial features, hair, and body type.
    • Consider how your character’s appearance reflects their backstory or personality.

Recommendations:

  • Experimentation: Don’t hesitate to try different builds and playstyles. Elden Ring encourages experimentation, so feel free to respec your character if needed.
  • Community Resources: Utilize online guides and forums for tips on effective builds and strategies. The Elden Ring community is active and can provide valuable insights.

By focusing on these aspects, you can create a character that not only looks great but also excels in gameplay. Enjoy your journey through the Lands Between!
