Elden Ring fans are eagerly awaiting the release of "Shadow of the Erdtree," an expansion that promises to introduce over ten new bosses designed to challenge even the most experienced Soulslike players. However, amidst the excitement for these formidable new foes, attention has also turned to a less celebrated aspect of Elden Ring Runes the game: its avian enemies.

If you were to ask Elden Ring enthusiasts about their favorite part of the game, its unlikely that "fighting the birds" would top the list. The current bird enemies, such as the infamous Warhawks in Stormveil Castle and the formidable Monstrous Crows of Caelid, have gained a reputation for their ability to disrupt and frustrate players with their sudden attacks and difficult maneuvers. While these feathered foes might not be the most powerful in terms of sheer strength, their capacity to irritate players is unrivaled.

With the upcoming release of "Shadow of the Erdtree," new bird enemies have been teased in promotional images shared by Elden Rings publisher, Bandai Namco. These new adversaries boast impressively long and sharp talons, sparking concern among the community that they might continue the tradition of avian aggravation.

The communitys reaction has been mixed. For those who harbor a strong dislike for Elden Rings bird enemies, the prospect of facing more of them is met with a mixture of dread and sarcastic resignation. "Oh great, more birds with talons. Just what I needed," lamented one disgruntled player.
