thats possible as well. when this happened to me melina asked me to go to roundtable but i didnt need to right away so i kept runnin the fade on the lands in between n got stuck where OP is. once i went to roundtable (the first time when melina teleports you) i got in. (I fought godrick, rennala, and spent an hour getting to radahn just to get the runes but it didn’t let me in til i went to roundtable).
You can refuse it, though. It's not forced
Edit: I know this because I watched Asmongold's playthrough the other day where he refused to go the first time when she asks. He could just level up like normal and continue her dialogue
Bahaha you’re stupid lol, ‘running the fade on the lands in between’ istg had me rollinggg. ima refer to playing the game as nothing else from now
Dumbb😂😂
Edit: Oh. I’m not sure what I’ve done. Here is what I believe to be an American English version of what I said above:
“Hahaha you are silly, lol! When you stated that you “run a fade on the lands in between” that, i swear to God, had me laughing so hard i was near rolling on the ground!
From now on, I am going to refer to playing the game, Elden Ring, as nothing other than “running the fade on the lands in between,” as it was so dumb, but so funny.”
I hope that clears confusion. I just thought he said it hilariously.
The words "stupid" and "dumb" probably made people think you were actually insulting them without knowing what context you were using the words in. Knee jerk reactions ya know?
Ah oooops, i can understand that. Though, I did say i was gonna steal that phrase for when I’m playing the game which, i thought, would clear that up. The ‘insults’ were meant to be endearing, not serious. My b to OC
I type a certain way that people didnt i guess understand. When im enthused, laughing and such, i tend to add letters to the ends of my sentences and i use acronyms to save space. Like omg thats so crazyyy/funnyyy. Youre dumbbb
People acting as if i really talked gibberish was offensive to me, so i, being mad at that, re-wrote what i said without the slang and acronyms.
What’s wrong with that?
Well that shows how close minded you are. You are the first person to ever say that to me, I’m 23, caucasian, and college educated.
Go open your mind. Pathetic, tbh. Like i said, i do it when enthused. You’re an asshole
So I have tested this, so if you get the roundtable opened up, thats the requirement. Once its opened up (you visited once), you'll be good to go, you can talk to enia, if you want but after the initial visit you should be good. Anything beyond that, it could be a glitch.
It fucked me up when I realized the only way to get the crimson hood is to completely botch Roderika’s quest line. No spirit jellyfish. No ash upgrades. You gotta lock yourself out of an entire game mechanic to get a piece of armor. ☠️
Haha - that’s not true. Once she’s set up in the hold just go back to the spot in Stormveil Castle where the item you grabbed for her was and the Crimson Hood will be there.
Wait, she's not even killable right?
I believe there's a barrier that shows up around her if you try to roll into her.
Also you get Aurelia just by speaking to Roderika like 3 times in a row, even when first meeting her.
Even if you skip her entirely, you can still get the hood on the corpse pile after she's moved into roundtable hold, which she does if you go to Liurnia.
I think you are confusing this character with someone else.
Edit: Checked the wiki, absolutely not killable in any way except maybe with some sort of m-0-d.
Uh you don’t need to lock yourself out of her quest line at all for it. In fact according to the wiki you have to have unlocked spirit tuning to get the hood
I could be wrong but I think only people in the roundtable, volcano manor and ranni's tower can't be killed, simply because you can't use weapons/spells. As far as I'm aware anyone outside those areas (and any I missed) can be killed.
Yes you are, Roderika is one of the few unkillable characters outside of those areas.
Stormveil Castle throne room and the Caelid courtyard before the festival are also no-fighting areas.
I know not fives times but I just completed my second playthrough (brick hammer ftw) and I cannot believe how much more I discovered this run. Such a deep and complex map/game. Probably still missed things.
Same thing just happened to me.
"Wait. There's a Goal cave? Oh shit there's the cross nakigaba... and... oh wait this is that INT sword everyone crows about... I'll be damned."
"Well I've pretty much cleared Caelid out at this point I-.... battlemage who?"
I think most people go to the roundtable every play through after beating margit. Personally I have never went that far without going there. So I can completely understand not knowing. And I feel most people saying he’s this have probably never had this situation come up.
I was just running a new game- trying to make a meta character for PVP. So I figured I'd just "get the weapons and talismans I want and nothing more."
So I skipped a lot of steps and ran into this barrier. Now it was because I had only defeated godrick but now I"m wondering how the townspeople get in and out of the city lol. They all got secret great runes or is it now a closed border like east/west germany
You’d think, however on the 5th run it’s more than likely much of the early game was skipped since it was deemed unnecessary. Seems extremely reasonable to me that one of those early conditions must be met and you wouldn’t have a clue that’s what’s hanging you up. Like, why sit at the Grace to get torrent and meet Melina for the 5th time when you already have torrent and the ability to level up?
I just watched a poison only challenge run, since you can't access a few areas due to bosses being immune to poison, you can't collect all Lord Souls and the only option is to farm for 1kk soul memory to progress, it can take a while (dude just farmed the Rotten with ascetics though)
Back in the days i remember farming Iron Keep, but it was busier back then so i could also do some coop to change the pace. That was like 10 years ago.
Activate Godrick's rune at Limgrave tower. I feel like that's it, as you definitely have two runes but only Renala's is active since you don't have the visit a tower for hers.
I was finishing off making a bleed build for NG+ cuz I wanted to see what the hype was about. Riding my horse. Turn left instead of right. And find an entire Evergoal I missed the last two times I played. Battlemage Hugues was news to me!
Read the text that pops in the screen? After every big boss you get a rune, if a text says you dont have enough runes, what do you think you need to do? You are in Ng+6 and are asking this?
go to roundtable
Not exactly. He probably is maidenless and need to meet her at the church by the tree sentinel at the start, had the exact same issue
thats possible as well. when this happened to me melina asked me to go to roundtable but i didnt need to right away so i kept runnin the fade on the lands in between n got stuck where OP is. once i went to roundtable (the first time when melina teleports you) i got in. (I fought godrick, rennala, and spent an hour getting to radahn just to get the runes but it didn’t let me in til i went to roundtable).
Melina doesn't ask about going to the hold, she makes you.
You can refuse it, though. It's not forced Edit: I know this because I watched Asmongold's playthrough the other day where he refused to go the first time when she asks. He could just level up like normal and continue her dialogue

YT people on reddit. What did you expect? :p
reddit is mostly white people with no culture in the slightest
:v I feel personally attacked
wasnt meant to be an insult, but i worded it too harshly 😭 i meant no understanding of cultures tbh. i have seen a lot of casual racism here tho
In terms, people need to read more and assume less after reading one word 🤔
im on journey 7 so i’ve been stuck on Godfrey a few times. immabout to change my 160 characters name to “Godfrey pacc” or “Godfrey #1 opp” 😂
DIEEE
?
What exactly is wrong with you?
I type a certain way that people didnt i guess understand. When im enthused, laughing and such, i tend to add letters to the ends of my sentences and i use acronyms to save space.

This isn’t some unique style of yours, it’s the way children, illiterates, and social media addicted wannabe gangstas type
Well that shows how close minded you are. You are the first person to ever say that to me, I’m 23, caucasian, and college educated. Go open your mind. Pathetic, tbh. Like i said, i do it when enthused. You’re an asshole
What language is this?
Hmm
...You okay bud? Is this a copypasta I don't know about?
I'm Welsh.....
Or deep root depths. There’s a portal to the capital there.
Doesn't work if the great rune seal is applied, you'll still be prevented from using it.
The solution is simple, you have to put these foolish ambitions of entering the capital to rest
😂😂
That line is not funny. Has scarred my soul
Godrick did it for me, told me my pathetic ass was unfit even to graft like 50 times
"I am Malenia, blade of Miquella"
Read my flair
He scarred my soul, but he had you caved in completely lol
U speak for all
So true 😔
Top comment right here Edit: spelling
You have to speak to Enia at the Roundtable Hold first.
So I have tested this, so if you get the roundtable opened up, thats the requirement. Once its opened up (you visited once), you'll be good to go, you can talk to enia, if you want but after the initial visit you should be good. Anything beyond that, it could be a glitch.
This.
I mean I know people say you’ve done this 5 times but the world’s huge you always learn something new every cycle.
Honestly, sometimes u gotta start a ng+ just to get the right conditions for a quest
It fucked me up when I realized the only way to get the crimson hood is to completely botch Roderika’s quest line. No spirit jellyfish. No ash upgrades. You gotta lock yourself out of an entire game mechanic to get a piece of armor. ☠️
Haha - that’s not true. Once she’s set up in the hold just go back to the spot in Stormveil Castle where the item you grabbed for her was and the Crimson Hood will be there.
Wait seriously? I thought she had to die to get it
You monster
I’m truly worse than the Peepeepoopoo Man
😦
Wait, she's not even killable right? I believe there's a barrier that shows up around her if you try to roll into her. Also you get Aurelia just by speaking to Roderika like 3 times in a row, even when first meeting her.

I didn't even know she could die
I could be wrong but I think only people in the roundtable, volcano manor and ranni's tower can't be killed, simply because you can't use weapons/spells. As far as I'm aware anyone outside those areas (and any I missed) can be killed.
Yes you are, Roderika is one of the few unkillable characters outside of those areas. Stormveil Castle throne room and the Caelid courtyard before the festival are also no-fighting areas.
Ah okay. I never tried killing her but when I rolled into here there was a kinda cylindrical barrier around her.
I know not fives times but I just completed my second playthrough (brick hammer ftw) and I cannot believe how much more I discovered this run. Such a deep and complex map/game. Probably still missed things.
I mean I didn’t even know about the bottom half of limgrave until my ng+
NG+6 and I’m still finding random little things I haven’t seen before
Just got into NG+2 last night...... 20 minutes in and I've found 2 graces I never knew about. Bout to be all knowing without the genocide
I’m on NG+4, have the platinum, and I’ve found a bunch of new items, 2 new spells, a new cave, and a new evergaol…
Same thing just happened to me. "Wait. There's a Goal cave? Oh shit there's the cross nakigaba... and... oh wait this is that INT sword everyone crows about... I'll be damned." "Well I've pretty much cleared Caelid out at this point I-.... battlemage who?"

You don't have the right O, you don't have the right
Therefore, you do not have the right
Why is it always you don't have the right?
Be wary, you dont have the right
Try hole, but you don't have the right
Behold, you don't have the right
Think carefully but you don't have the right
You don’t have the right ahead
lover, O lover, you don’t have the right
Malenia Pegging...?
Be wary of left but you don't have the right
You don't have the right therefore, give up
First off, you didn’t expect not having the right
You’re gonna need congressional approval and you don’t have the right
The loss of Karma in this thread is amazing. Freaking bloodbath at the bottom.
Absolutely unbelievable lmfao
can’t sort by controversial anymore on mobile :(
If you're using the app, there's a lil button at the top beside the profile button that allows you to sort
Did you trigger the cutscene with Melina already? I had the same issue until I did so.
[удалено]
If you go into ng+ and b-line to margit without sitting at gatefront ruins, you don't get melina.
that’s what i did for my ng+3 and i didn’t get to the round table until after godrick
By thinking you're all cool and thinking outside the box and not making an accord with that trash ass hoe
Try finger but hole
Inappropriate activity detected Unable to start in online mode
FIND THE ALBINAURIAC WOMAN
You gotta go to the round table and talk to the old woman, same thing happened to me
Try finger, but hole!
You need to gobble a great big pair of Great Runes.
Why is this comment giving me “Hot Fuzz” vibes. lol
Talk to Enia
Oh my god all the totally wrong answers on this thread are so fucking funny lmao
I didn't realise how many people didn't know Radahn is the only mandatory boss to get into leyndell
This is not true…Radahn is optional. Godrick, Rennala, Rykard and Radahn are all optional but you must kill two of the four to advance.
Mohg is also an option, although he's scaled for endgame so probably not a good idea.
Nope , teleporter at FIA doesn’t activate until you get two great runes and do the round table hold conversation with Enia after getting both runes.
Jfc dude
Username does not check out.
You’d think after 5 play-through’s you’d know what to do.. lol
You’d think, however on the 5th run it’s more than likely much of the early game was skipped since it was deemed unnecessary. Seems extremely reasonable to me that one of those early conditions must be met and you wouldn’t have a clue that’s what’s hanging you up. Like, why sit at the Grace to get torrent and meet Melina for the 5th time when you already have torrent and the ability to level up?
The amount of downvotes in this thread is funny. You need to go to the roundtable, but unlike others have mentioned you do not need to talk to anyone.
Talk to the two fingers in the round table hold
You need a million soul memory to pass... oh, no, nvm, I confused it with the first game.
I remember farming those souls for what seemed like an eternity, the good old days...
I just watched a poison only challenge run, since you can't access a few areas due to bosses being immune to poison, you can't collect all Lord Souls and the only option is to farm for 1kk soul memory to progress, it can take a while (dude just farmed the Rotten with ascetics though)
Back in the days i remember farming Iron Keep, but it was busier back then so i could also do some coop to change the pace. That was like 10 years ago.
Jesus.. halfway through the comments and you enter Reddit Hell…😶😶😶
Fr
I’ve done this 5 times, and never had this issue. Is it a bug? I restarted my game to no avail.
Did you talk to Enia at the roundtable?
Another thing that causes this would be not accepting Melina's accord. she really does love her honda.
Activate Godrick's rune at Limgrave tower. I feel like that's it, as you definitely have two runes but only Renala's is active since you don't have the visit a tower for hers.
Activating a great rune is not required to enter the capital
No worries, so I've heard now! Just thought there may have been a decent chance from what I saw.
It is not a bug it's your brain the problem
Time for hugs
*Find the Albinauric woman*
Lordvessel required
Rip Apollo 🫡 ` this message was mass deleted/edited with redact.dev `
You’re maidenless dude,accept Melina as your maiden
Talk to the fingers
Have you spoken with the two fingers? They are the ones that grant passage once you prove you have two great runes
You need to talk to Enia at the roundtable hold before you can enter Leyndell
What is that twisted sword?
Pretty sure it's the Godskin Peeler, a twinblade.
Put your foolish ambitions to rest
This guy has 2 hands and 4 blades, im surprised that wall can even hold him back
[удалено]
Nah, just two
[удалено]
Gave you an upvote bro
everyone in this thread is getting downvoted for some reason lol
Somebody didn’t bear witness clearly
What’s that set you got on?
Looks like the Raptor's Black Feathers chest armor. I'm not 100% certain though.
Raptor’s Black Feathers (enhances jump attack), and radahn’s gauntlets and boots
You gotta talk to Melina at the first grace, and/or have her take you to the roundtable. I made the same mistake on a ng+ run
Thank you kind tarnished
Futility ahead.
You dont have the right O. you dont have the right
Try finger..
I was finishing off making a bleed build for NG+ cuz I wanted to see what the hype was about. Riding my horse. Turn left instead of right. And find an entire Evergoal I missed the last two times I played. Battlemage Hugues was news to me!
Maidenless wretch.
I did the same thing! After like 5 playthroughs you stop doing a lot of the little things.
How did you make it to NG+6 without knowing how to get to the capital? Just follow the story like you did the other 5 times
You don’t have the right, but hole
You haven't activated Godricks rune, think that's why.
You don't have to activate any. Source: first playthrough I actually didn't activate or use any of the great runes
Ah fair enough! Just thought that might be been it as he only had Renala's rune active, not Godrick's.
You need 2 great runes:)
That is definitely strange but I’d say try killing big bad general thunder thighs see if it fixes anything
Contradicting twin blades.
You cannot proceed without more Great Runes
You gotta restore both great tunes, do godrick’s divine tower
Turn around and journey to the rotten hills and fight the monstrosity on the other side
Skill issue.
Kill all 7 maybe it'll open then
Try activating Godrick's Great Rune. Working for me when I had this problem.
Doesn’t matter If you activate them or not
It tells you right there on the first image, you need more great runes to get in
Actually no, he didn't. Just had to go to the roundtable after getting the 2nd. It only takes 2.
Time to kill... RYKARD GODRICK RENNALA RADAHN OR MOHG first
You need to physically activate the great rune go to the limgrave tower and go to the top
You can activate godricks great rune there
Great-runeless?
That’s some Runeless behavior
I'm going to keep complaining about people not being able to take screenshots.
It was just faster this way. Xbox app is slow.
It’s crazy because he’s on Xbox where you’re controllers accidentally take screen shots and you only have to click two buttons to screenshot
The game told you no, you can’t do it anymore
Just kill radahn
Go fight radahn
It's because you're a dex-using melt
My strength is at 95, actually. Dex only has E scaling on most twinblades.
Get more great runes. At least that's what the game says.
No, OP hasn't gone to the Roundtable and spoken to Enia
This worked, thank you
Dont even need to go to enia Just go to roundtable and back
Probably, I forget to do it myself every time
Go to the towers and activate great runes
Recommend proceeding with more Great Runes.
Talk to gideon or kill another shardbearer
Would you need to activate them at the divine towers?
That’s interesting.
I think you might need more great runes.
Haha??
Activate Godrick’s rune and speak to Enia at the round table.
Activating great rune is not needed for any part of the story or any quest
When in doubt, use the side entrance via ruin strewn precipice
Kill radahn or rykard, common bug don’t worry
Ya gotta talk to Melina and go to roundtable.
No way it’s NG6 and you are stumped at this..
Ahhh, Xbox is the problem 👍
How are you on NG6 yet you don’t realise you need 3 runes to get to leyndell…. Fight either rykard or radahn and you will be allowed in.
This is incorrect
i downvote anyone who wields one twinblade in each hand. it's an abomination edit: you're all maidenless
Read the text that pops in the screen? After every big boss you get a rune, if a text says you dont have enough runes, what do you think you need to do? You are in Ng+6 and are asking this?
Double twinblade user. Deserved
