Games like Elden Ring are some of the hardest games you’ll ever come across because not only do you have the health of a weasel, which can get you killed even without doing anything wrong, but the game is designed in a way that almost everything in the game is out to get you. The fall damage is too quick or too short, the environment is out to kill you, the enemies can one-shot you, and let’s not talk about bosses and how they are some of the hardest ones to kill in the entirety of gaming.

But due to this, the game is fun to play; that’s the reason why Elden Ring won the Game of the Year in 2022. To make the game a little easier, FromSoftware has sprinkled different quests in different locations. They make you stronger, give you more health, or sometimes they give you more damage to attack your enemies. In this blog, we are going to talk about one of these spells and its location, which is called “Howl of Shabriri”. I will explain what it does, where it is, and why you should go there.

What does Howl of Shabriri do?
The Howl of Shabriri is an incantation that makes your character scream so loud that it inflicts madness buildup in nearby enemies. Because it’s a frenzied flame incantation, the caster also accrues madness buildup while casting the spell. Using it draws aggro from nearby enemies. In simple words, using this spell makes you scream louder, which makes the enemies aggressive and most likely to attack you.
It also increases your damaging ability, so you can easily kill your enemies. Lastly, it also makes you prone to damage, meaning that while it is easier to kill enemies, it is also easier for enemies to kill you. This spell does not work on regular enemies. So basically, it is a high-risk, high-reward spell that allows you to do more damage while making you vulnerable.
