Elden Ring is full of false walls that hide numerous secrets, which can be discovered by hitting them with a weapon or rolling against them, but apparently, there is also another way to reveal them: using the Seal of Margit, as reported by some users. on Reddit complete with an explanatory video.
As demonstrated on this page on Reddit, it’s a pretty straightforward system but one that perhaps many haven’t discovered yet because it’s not explicit at all, like many other things in Elden Ring, on the other hand. It is not clear if it is the result of a glitch or if the effect is desired, but if you use Margit’s Seal near a false wall, it disappears revealing what lies behind it and above all making it clear how there is a secret passage without having to start hitting the walls.
Another lesser-known effect of Margit’s Seal is also the fact that it disables certain traps such as flamethrower towers, which makes the item in question useful for multiple situations beyond the simple boss fight it is directly related to.
It remains to be seen if these artifact side effects are intended or if they are the result of some glitch in the game that could be corrected with one of the upcoming patches, but in the meantime, it seems to work.
For the record, but beware of any spoilers, Margit’s Seal is a special item that is sold by Patches and can be used to temporarily immobilize the boss in question during his fight, but it seems to be even more useful with these. alternative applications.
We do not know if it works however with the well-known false wall which requires 50 hits to be knocked down, still hoping that the latter is simply an isolated problematic case. In the past few hours, a video has surfaced showing a secret ending cut by FromSoftware for Elden Ring.
