Elden Ring Patches Out Illusory Wall Requiring 50 Hits
According to YouTuber Zullie the Witch, FromSoftware recently patched out the fake Elden Ring wall that once required 50 hits to break through. Players stumbled across the 50-hit illusory wall in Elden Ring about a month ago, after someone went ham on a stone wall in Volcano Manor. What most found peculiar was the hidden entrance's lack of any real value. It did not serve as a shortcut, either. The well-hidden passage merely opened up to a room of cultish NPCs, a space players can freely access upon joining Volcano Manor at leisure.
Regardless of what lay behind the secret wall in question, Elden Ring users quickly grew paranoid, questioning what other fake walls might demand an absurd amount of strikes before revealing hidden areas. Zullie the Witch cracked the mystery, though, later informing fellow Tarnished that the 50-hit wall didn't actually require dozens of strikes. Instead, similar to Elden Ring's other illusory walls, the 50-hit hidden entrance needed to lose a certain amount of hit points before it buckled — this particular wall boasted 9,999HP. In other words, the Volcano Manor illusion constituted little more than a glitch.

Elden Ring's latest update, Patch 1.04, recently went live across all platforms, issuing a whole host of bug fixes and balance changes. The patch notes failed to mention one noteworthy fix, however — the 50-hit illusory wall is no more. YouTuber Zullie the Witch (via Eurogamer) tested the notorious location in Volcano Manor and found the fake wall no longer breaks, regardless of how many strikes it takes. As such, players can safely conclude a wall is real if it does not vanish after a single hit. Zullie
