Elon Musk arrives for the 2022 Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 2, 2022, in New York. - The Gala raises money for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute. The Gala's 2022 theme is "In America: An Anthology of Fashion".
Musk has tweeted several times how he is a huge fan of Elden Ring. On his most recent tweet, it reads, "Elden Ring, experienced in its entirety, is the most beautiful art I've ever seen."
Twitter users and fans of the game were quick to respond, eager to know more about his character.
Musk promptly replied to this by saying he was "a power mage, but decent with a sword/katana" followed by a screenshot of his built with the note, "equipped load will be lower if fast roll is needed"

Musk's tweet was met by confusion by Elden Ring fans. According to some of them, the heavy armor with two swords equipped don't look like the right one to use for a mage character.
Furthermore, fans noticed that the swords are equipped in the same hand as his staff, which means this will disable his character to cast spells and attach with his weapon earily. Instead, he needs to swap between them with the left-hand slot that supposedly should be used for his shield.
As Musk said, he will lower his load when necessary, but with two heavy shields equipped, it seems there is unnecessary weight to his load.
Mage, a spellcasting character, should wear lighter armor because this will ensure they get out of harm's way more easily. However, Musk's character contradicts that with the heavy equipment that will make it challenging for his mage to dodge any enemy attacks.
Fans also note that the fact that he has so many weapns and shields mean it's likely that most of them are not upgraded as much as they could be because upgrade materials can be in limited supply for most of the game.
And that's not all-some fans also notice that his Talismans, a Radagon's Soreseal that increases Vigor, Strength, Endurance, and Dexterity, may be good but at the cost of taking 15 percent more damage.
This makes it a terrible choice of Talisman for a mage character because it is best used by physical weapon-based characters.
Another Talisman that he seems to be using is a Crimson Amber Medallion that helps boost his HP to offset the negative effects of the Radagon Soreseal and a Green Turtle Talisman that boosts stamina recovery.
All of these are great Talismans but they are all suitable for physical characters who frequently roll and use their weapons to deal damage.
It seems like Musk has gotten it all wrong--what do you think?
