How to respec in Elden Ring: Reset your character's stats

pocket-lint.com:

(Pocket-lint) — One of the ways that From Software's masterful Elden Ring makes it a little easier for players to get through its sprawling world is by letting your reset your character's stats if you think you've allocated some points wrong during level-ups.

The system for doing so is a little obscure, though, so if you're wondering how it works you've come to the right place.

Happily, the answer is yes — you can very much respec in Elden Ring, and doing so can be a great help in getting through the game's tougher late portions.

When you respec, you get to reallocate all the attribute points you've earned for your character so far, meaning you'll reset to the values where you started.

You cannot go below the minimums that your chosen class starts with, but from there you can completely re-do your points as you like, to create a wholly different build or just to optimise the one you're aiming for.

There are two simple but somewhat challenging prerequisites you have to fill before you can start rebuilding your character in Elden Ring.

First, you have to defeat the second big boss of the game (going by the most typical play order) — Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon, who resides in Raya Lucaria Academy.

Secondly, you need to have a Larval Tear in your inventory, a rare item that you will occasionally come across in the world.

Once you defeat Rennala, she'll become passive and chill out in her boss arena, where you can respec your character by talking to her, exchanging one Larval Tear each time you want to do so.

Rennala, who lets you respec after you've defeated her, sits in the boss arena at the end of Raya Lucaria Academy, in Liurnia of the Lakes.
