Sprinting in Elden Ring is a crucial skill that allows players to quickly traverse the game’s vast landscapes and dodge enemy attacks. To sprint, players must first equip a weapon or shield in their left hand, then press and hold the “L3” button (the left stick button) while moving forward.
Sprinting consumes stamina, so players must be mindful of their endurance levels. Sprinting can be especially useful when exploring large areas, such as the open fields of Limgrave or the sprawling underground caverns of Siofra River. It can also be used to quickly close the distance on enemies or to dodge incoming projectiles.
