scarlet rot

Scarlet Rot is a Status Effect in Elden Ring. Status Effects are various buffs or ailments that apply either a beneficial or detrimental effect to the target. Status Effects can be applied on both enemies and players alike. Status Effects are triggered after a buildup meter is filled by repeated application of attacks that cause the effect. Both players and enemies can have varying resistances to a given Status Effect.

Bonus: Despite popular belief, Malenia does not actually inflict THAT much rot. Fite me

Guy 1: *gets inflicted with scarlet rot while fighting Malenia* DUDE I thought you said she didn't inflict too much rot?!!
Guy 2 (asshole): She doesn't. *Watches friend die of scarlet rot*
