Amir. | An Aim-Assist Feature Gone Wrong - Elden Ring @Amir0 | Uploaded July 2023 | Updated October 2024, 15 hours ago.
Free-aiming is a creative way to take magic casting and other ranged playstyles further in both PvP and PvE. In this video we talk a lot about free-aiming and the ways it's useful, but also dive in to the topic of a not-really-talked-about mechanic, which is holding free-aiming back. This feature seemed to be intended to make a basic use of casting easier, but the fact that it is baked-in without the option to turn it off ultimately puts a hard limit on how you can aim projectiles, and especially kills their effectiveness in PvP.
If you're interested in PvP, I highly recommend joining the Elden Ring PvP discord.
