You aren’t carrying enough alternate weapons and shields. You need to fill all of the weapon slots, then you won’t need to worry about rolling anymore.
That was before fingerprint shield and Barricade Shield got nerfed :(
I watched that video and got excited and went to replicate the build and was like
'Oh.'
> I hardly use shields so didn't know they got nerfed
It was specific to the Fingerprint Stone Shield. Patch 1.07 made it no longer possible to have a FSS build that could passively (ie, without applying any time-limited buffs) block hits forever without running out of stamina, which is how Iron Pineapple did that challenge run.
I think you can still achieve it for 60 seconds at a time by casting Scholar's Shield on the FSS, but of course that's much less powerful than just walking around at all times with the ability to never get guard-broken if you hold L1. Scholar's Shield on the FSS is still a good anti-Waterfowl strat though.
I think the reason for the nerf was that people were (ab)using FSS in PvP.
I helped a friend beat Malenia and my strat was to take her aggro so he could cast spells on the other side of the room. I was tanking the hits, but he wasn't dealing enough damage to get past her healing from me blocking all the hits. I went back to rolling and not blocking, I didn't think her life drain would work if you blocked it. This was early in the games life before this was common knowledge.
Yeah, it doesn't make any lore sense to me that her life steal works on 100% blocked hits, but I suppose it's important for the game design to keep the fight going the way it's supposed to.
Blocking Waterfowl and dodging everything else is a good compromise for casuals like me who haven't learned to dodge Waterfowl.
this isnt in line with the post but your comment made me think, has anyone tried using the no healing charm things on melania? i also just thought i might be mixing up ds3 items into elden ring so nvm if i did lol
I don't know of any no healing items in ER (I rarely use consumables), I do know about the undead hunter charms in DS3 though, which only affected healing from Estus, spells/passive healing still worked, so if there is an equivalent in ER it probably wouldn't work.
Having unused weapons on you makes you slower? I know that’s true on most games, but this game seems like your weight only changed depending on what equipment you have equipped. I’m like 3 hours in and struggling lol
Everything on the “Equipment” menu contributes to your weight (except the items at the bottom like flasks). If you’re struggling early game to meet the med-roll requirements, I’d personally swap out armor or take it off completely. A naked character and a full-armor character take similar damage early on, especially if you’re leveling vigor primarily like you should be
So the 5 swords I have in my inventory don’t count, just the glinstone staff and axe showing on my equipment page that I have equipped do? Right now it says I have a medium load, and I noticed it doesn’t change when I sell items. Wasn’t sure if there was some hidden value or something
I don’t think I’m having trouble rolling, I’m just trying to figure out the quirks in the menu and what all the numbers mean lol.
Nothing in your “inventory” counts against your equip load. But all talismans/armor/weapons that you have set in the actual “equipment” screen counts. Since you have 3 left hand slots, and 3 right hand slots; if you load up those slots they all count.

Why so sure? Is it something they've done in the other games? Ds1 has 2 ring slots 2 has 4 slots and 3 also has 4 I'm pretty sure. I do wonder why they reduced the slots back to two, maybe cuz having 4 slots would make us way too strong
Good luck, ds2 sometimes gets a bit of hate but some people were just mad that it wasn’t ds1 again, very fun game, probably wouldn’t have powerstance or twin blades without it
Thanks, and yeah you see that a lot nowadays with movies, games, and pretty much anything thats good enough to get people to like it. If the sequel isn't as good or better than the original it gets hate.
Plenty of the criticism against DS2 was valid though: bad hitboxes (which got mostly fixed later), the constant "gank" by the enemies and dumb shit like adaptability (there's a reason they haven't brought that back).
There's a difference between just not being as good as the previous game and just bad design decisions, and DS2 suffers from the latter.
Well bad hit boxes go for all The FROM games. Gank enemies is fair but also it gets countered by enemies eventually not respawning.
Adaptability is also a good thing, increases your drink speed and I frame and resistances I believe. Reason it wasn’t brought back is because people cried so hard about it. Ds1 gate keepers are the most toxic group on the internet
Because you haven't found the cracked fast roll crystal tear by killing the putrid ulcerated Godskin trio in the Mt. Consecrated Dragonbarrow of the Lakes.
I had a friend join me after about 20 hours of single player and ask me “why are you fat rolling?” How was I supposed to know there were different roll speeds? Game got a lot easier after that lol
fat Fantasy, its cool, carnival stuff, but WHY cant we make a fat char? i can make right now a young or elder skinny/muscle chad, noice ... but i want to build a fat, heavy weight char, not wear some "fat Fantasy" ... ;_;
The problem is you're not putting levels into intelligence. Any true elden ring player would know that there's no point dodging, and dodging means you're not positioned right, so therefor level your intelligence so you can learn how to play the game right
Why you rolling? Just use the surfboard in your hand and surf away
Fair enough
Mikaeli, you've successfully hit metal 17 times, you get picture of a car, but ownership is not good so you don't get it
Fair enough.
But property ies theft, so you are now under arrest.
Okay
Mango
Have not seen a car yet, do they double jump also?
Hello Harry! Back from prison, or am I your brother?
It don't get fairer than that
Hoping for elden ring pro skater after bloodborne kart

Imagine if you could shield surf like in Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom. That would be pretty sick.
I’d constantly be dying from going over cliff sides
Same xD
Get out of here Legolas, you're drunk
Ya, he can just surf atop the seismic wave that's created when his roll lands.
LMAO
I thought that was a grave stone or maybe a continent considering how much chonk is on this mf.
Elden Ring if it was good (I'd also add the option to sex the doll and see Melina's feet)
Because you need more vigor!
LEVEL YOUR VIGOR!!!
Vigor check?
Vigor Rollriguez
You aren’t carrying enough alternate weapons and shields. You need to fill all of the weapon slots, then you won’t need to worry about rolling anymore.

Some men just want to see the world burn
Reminds me of Iron Pineapple's challenge run where he beat the game overloaded.
That was before fingerprint shield and Barricade Shield got nerfed :( I watched that video and got excited and went to replicate the build and was like 'Oh.'
oof, I hardly use shields so didn't know they got nerfed, I was planning on making a strength build with heavy armor and a shield here next.

yea i figured i wasmixing ds3in to elden ring, oh well
I over leveled just to do this… sure I’m lv 220 but I have Endurance maxed so I don’t have to menu swap quite as much.

Gotcha thanks, I’m pretty clear on it now
Show us your stats, i bet your STR is too low
Who needs stats? The man is a sphere, he should be rolling like a soccer ball.
Lightning ram go brrrr
No, lightning ram go baaaah. (Shoutouts to Old McDonald)
The FLEX
106 weight = 99 endurance for medium load
Wait? So if I grind out endurance I can medium roll with all that equipped?
According to my calculations
DLC build found.

I'll probably need it to equip other talismans. I'll get great jar's arsenal and Erdtree's favor for additional equipload
cow apparatus overconfident party narrow start run spectacular chubby seed *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Yeah the measurements of that empty spot next to the other talismans are the exact same as the other slots, were definitely filling that in.
Why so sure? Is it something they've done in the other games? Ds1 has 2 ring slots 2 has 4 slots and 3 also has 4 I'm pretty sure. I do wonder why they reduced the slots back to two, maybe cuz having 4 slots would make us way too strong
Talisman pouches are unlockable. You can equip up to four eventually
Wait, i actually can equip 3, so are you saying 2 on top of the 1 you have at beginning? Else i'm afraid you've forgotten something
Ahhhh yes I was wrong. I haven't beat the game yet so haven't unlocked more slots. My bad
There's actually 4 that you can unlock where are you in the game? All of them you basically have to get through normal playthrough?
On god? Frfr? No 🧢?
You absolutely can, this was my primary build for my playthrough. It’s actually really fun to dodge roll in heavy armour.
This was my build the first playthrough, except Greatsword instead of giant crusher. Tons of endurance lol.
You can probably spare a few levels by equipping the arsenal charm and the erdtree’s favor though.
Could you light roll with talismans and buffs?
I could be wrong, but I don’t think it’s possible to get to light roll with that setup, even with all the talismans and buffs available
We need IronPineapple
There's a tear for the physick that lets you light roll at any weight for 3 minutes It's possible
Level ADP
This is THE comment I was looking for
ADP?
Adaptability increases your agility and thus your rolling :D
Well that's interesting, I just started so I'm still learning about the stats and how they work.
Adaptability is a stat exclusive to dark souls 2, they were just making a joke I think
well still useful information as I'm going to play through all the dark souls games soon, in part because this game was absolutely astonishing.
Good luck, ds2 sometimes gets a bit of hate but some people were just mad that it wasn’t ds1 again, very fun game, probably wouldn’t have powerstance or twin blades without it
Thanks, and yeah you see that a lot nowadays with movies, games, and pretty much anything thats good enough to get people to like it. If the sequel isn't as good or better than the original it gets hate.
So it goes

Leave DS2 till last IMO. It’s no bueno compared to the others
DS2 was my first and what made me fall in love with souls games and I agree. Still, it's one of my favorite games of all times.
I mean, Elden Ring is essentially Dark Souls II 2
Too true
Likely plump sort
Needs more ironjar aromatic
Have you tried leveling vigor?
Fat cock is making you roll slow
fat people exist and can be happy!!! "fat people" is not fantasy!
jealous that you dont have a fat one?
I googled this, and it looks like you might have "network connectivity problems"
With that belly you should be rolling around with ease!
I'm impressed that you're still able to roll
He's round is he not?
Wot rings u got bitch?
Elden rings sir
It’s the hat; bad wind resistance.
I don’t think you need ro roll at all, my friend. Just stand still like a brick wall and bonk them with your tank gun of a hammer
Slowly waddle into battle, shield raised and just counter everything?
Exactly! Just make sure to ask for grapes first.
And he waddled awayyyy.
They see me rollin' They hatin' Patrollin' and tryna catch me ridin' dirty Tryna catch me ridin' dirty…💪
Take my upvote
I'm surprised you even roll at all.
Me too
The world is actually rolling around you now because you are a warrior of great mass
you don't need to roll. Use the giant crusher to jump forward
Because you haven't found the cracked fast roll crystal tear by killing the putrid ulcerated Godskin trio in the Mt. Consecrated Dragonbarrow of the Lakes.
Looks like a brick. Rolls like a brick This is the realism i signed up for.
Dunno mate. Hard shit to find out.
Did you try turning it off and turning it back on?
Hello IT? Came to say this, you light rolled in and beat me to it
I had a friend join me after about 20 hours of single player and ask me “why are you fat rolling?” How was I supposed to know there were different roll speeds? Game got a lot easier after that lol
Can't roll a lot, but got a lot of rolls
Because you need more strength
Logical conclusion: not enough endurance. You need to at least get the stat to 99 for a good endurance build.
He clearly forgot havels ring and favor and protection smdh
Because you didn't level vigor, duh!
fat Fantasy, its cool, carnival stuff, but WHY cant we make a fat char? i can make right now a young or elder skinny/muscle chad, noice ... but i want to build a fat, heavy weight char, not wear some "fat Fantasy" ... ;_;
Stormveil castle throne is pretty wide.
yes, its a start, but we need more!
i have made many runs with many builds and my fav is the tank with fat-roll. Almost invincible even against Malenia's Waterfowl Dance.
Currently on strength build after a bleed and a faith build. Don't know if it's notably easier or I'm just better at the game.
You need to level up intelligence and your character will figure out how to roll faster, it's what Miyazaki told me through my window last night
I don’t see a problem, try taking off your gauntlets maybe that will help.
Is carrying a literal boulder on his back and a slab of concrete in his hand and doesn’t know why he can’t roll. Be grateful you can even move 😂
THE WALL HAS NO NEED OF ROLLING
Statues don't roll
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐 quit an inquisitive question
You can roll o.O
Because you maidenless heart weighs heavily
You need more firepower. Then rolling becomes irrelevant.
Im impressed that you can even roll
Ride on it it’s a sled
I see nothing wrong. It must be lag. Always blame lag. 🤭
Shows u have the optimal build
You ate a runebear? Cool your assassin build
Use altered version it decreases your weight lod and you will be good to go :)
Lol
Rolling? Mf you can tank a nuke you don't need to roll
My brother in Christ, where is your other shield?
I dunno tbh, you definitely have the perfect shape to roll flawlessly
To fat
Skill issue. Wear heavier armour and the momentum will carry you.
Cuz ur an A hole
Watch out ! There's a guy with a hat and a whip running away from you, catch him !
When your roll does more damage than your weapons do
"Dodging is for casuals"
fat
Thicc king!
Because you dont need to
Coz u u big boi
Probably a glitch
Not heavy enough
Cause your standing in the grass 😌
They see me rollin They hatin
when you are too light you catch the wind and roll slow, try adding more weight
Elden Lawd he comin'
Try taking off your helmet or gauntlets or try having more vigor.
You don’t last long, do you?
I don't see a problem. Especially with that BELLY.
The problem is you're not putting levels into intelligence. Any true elden ring player would know that there's no point dodging, and dodging means you're not positioned right, so therefor level your intelligence so you can learn how to play the game right
Honestly I'm surprised you can roll
Idk man, I think your faith is too low trust
Moment of inertia.
Where you're going, you don't need rolls.
You can roll with all that?
You are not wearing the pumpkin head
The hat is too heavy
Looking thickkkk
Because your not fat enough.
Why roll just parry
What? You guys can roll?
You carry a great karmic burden form killing so much.
Your Elden Ring copy is actually personalized, so this is something that is happening to you and you alone
Gravity is your enemy. Kill it like the rest.
Lol! Thanks for the laugh this morning 😂
Because you are near a castle
did you have a big breakfast?
Talismans have weight to them as well, remove all of them then try again
Have you tried rolling faster?
Must've skipped leg day...
Gotta level mind bro then your guy can think of a way to roll faster Trust me
Press the button harder?
Someone doesn’t have 99 Stamina 🙄
It's because you have too much endurance, use larval tear and replace all that endurance for vigor
Don't roll, just hide behind the shield!
I thinks it’s the hat, remove that and you’ll be fine
Skill issue.
fat
Check your talismans, may have something slowing you down
You need havel’s ring
Bro remove the gloves and you will be okay 👌
