Elden Ring's most annoying type of enemy is getting a new recruit in Shadow of the Erdtree, and I'm praying they're not as bad as the Warhawks

Fighting two bird enemies in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree.

There's officially one week to go until Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree is here – an expansion which promises to deliver over 10 new bosses, giving Soulslike enjoyers everywhere even more ways to die repeatedly. Right now though, fans aren't worried about those big new baddies, but rather some fresh, feathered field enemies. 

If you ask anyone what their favorite part of Elden Ring is, I can guarantee you that they're not going to say 'fighting the birds.' From the Warhawks plaguing Stormveil Castle with their stabby knife feet and explosive barrels, to the aptly named Monstrous Crows in Caelid, these avian enemies have given us our fair share of pain since the action RPG's launch, swooping in when you least expect it to make sure that you have a bad time. They're not even that strong, they're just annoying, and I'm sorry to inform you that Shadow of the Erdtree is set to bring with it a brand new feathery foe.
