#ELDENRING Fun Fact: Like in previous games, some weapons deal secret bonus damage against specific enemy types.
To start off, these specific "Gravity" weapons deal additional damage against Alabaster Lords and Fallingstar Beasts (+20 to +30% damage, depending on the weapon)
These "holy" weapons (and only these weapons) deal bonus damage against Undead enemies. Keep in mind bonus damage is not related to damage types, like holy damage.
Consumable goods can use the weapon system for damage, and Holy Water does a LOT of bonus damage. 4x damage!
And the final set are "Dragon weapons" which deal bonus damage against... other dragons. But some dragons are more affected than others.
Dragons seem to be split into two types: Ancient Dragons (left), and Lesser Dragons (right).
Lesser dragons are twice as vulnerable.
Members of ancient and lesser dragons usually includes who you'd think. These are worth noting though:
Wyrms are lesser dragons
Banished Knights are lesser dragons
Placidusax is not a dragon (...?)
Dragonkin Soldiers are not dragons
Dragonflys are not dragons (cowards)

Apparently kick attacks are in Elden Ring, but you have to do a secret button combination. ????
I swear this is real. If you're using a curved sword, thrusting sword, or heavy thrusting sword: press backstep while charging a strong attack and you'll do a unique attack.
shoutouts to all the deleted (and non-deleted) replies/qt's that are completely wrong about how kick attacks worked in previous games.
and no, everybody did not already know about this. i sure fucking didn't
