Much like in many From Software games, one of the main motivations for players to explore and take on formidable opponents is the pursuit of better and more potent gear. Naturally, Elden Ring is the same in this way. You will amass a variety of strong and practical equipment as the game progresses. But sometimes, these products don't function as planned. Consider using the Longtail Cat Charm. According to legend, this amulet "renders the wearer immune to fall damage." But gamers are dying while utilizing it, so that's not truly the case. What's the problem, then? Is a Talisman Made of Longtail Cats? We will examine the Cat Talisman in Elden Ring and find out why it doesn't appear to be functioning.

Why Does Elden Ring's Longtail Cat Talisman Not Prevent Fall Damage?

The Longtail Cat Talisman is very confusing to seasoned Dark Souls players. This is due to the fact that comparable goods in earlier Dark Souls games functioned by extending the amount of space from which you could fall safely without being hurt. Even worse, the description is written in a really odd way, and new players are also perplexed by the following two contradicting sentences: Protects the wearer against injury caused by falls. It cannot, however, stop a person from dying. What exactly does this imply, then?

This item really prevents a very particular kind of fall damage, which is how it works. Any fall at Elden Ring that is 20 meters or longer is lethal. Sadly, the Longtail Cat Talisman is unable to shield you from this. It will shield you from suffering "regular" fall injury, which happens when you fall from a height of 16.9 to 19.9 meters. Because of this, the Longtail Cat Talisman is very situational and essentially meaningless. Naturally, there's still a chance that this may be adjusted in a later patch to better match the functionality of this item type in Dark Souls.
