Elden Ring Players Won't Be Able to Unsee This Detail on the Default Club

Key Takeaways

  • Elden Ring’s default club has a hidden frog-like face, changing players’ perceptions of the weapon.
  • Players noticed variations in the faces on their clubs, prompting creative comparisons to other characters.

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours spent traversing fantastical worlds, I find myself utterly charmed by the latest discovery within Elden Ring’s default club. The frog-like face hidden on this seemingly ordinary weapon has added an unexpected charm to the game that I hadn’t anticipated.


Players in the Elden Ring community have found a humorous secret hidden subtly on the game’s default club, causing them to view this often overlooked weapon differently. While the standard club isn’t usually the first choice for many Tarnished wielders in FromSoftware’s action RPG, the newly discovered feature of the Hammer-type weapon has been altering the perspectives of Elden Ring players regarding this weapon.

2022 saw the launch of Elden Ring, a grim fantasy game in the Soulslike genre, crafted by Hidetaka Miyazaki with George R.R. Martin contributing to its expansive world design, based on his Game of Thrones series. The DLC Shadow of the Erdtree was unveiled in Summer 2024 and enriched the game’s storyline, lore, combat mechanics, and weaponry options. Despite the default club not being included among Elden Ring’s top strength weapons initially, the Bloodfiend’s Arm from the expansion earned recognition for its impressive power.

In a recent Reddit post by Bryan_Aftermath, an image was shared of a character wielding the standard club from Elden Ring. The community was taken aback to find a face staring back at them. The original poster pointed out that the club had a frog-like visage, which sparked comparisons from other players to Plank from Cartoon Network’s Ed, Edd n Eddy and Master Oogway from Kung Fu Panda. Additionally, some members of the Elden Ring Reddit community drew parallels between the club’s face and The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim’s Wabbajack staff, which features a more recognizable face on its artifact head.

Elden Ring Player Spots a Hidden Face on the Default Club

Additionally, other Reddit users observed that their clubs looked somewhat dissimilar to the original poster’s weapon. These clubs had a frog-like visage with a terrified scream instead of a smile. In response to this discrepancy, one user speculated that the club was expressing terror due to its frequent use in killing innocents. However, the smiling face on the club might be concealed; despite this, it remains a formidable opponent, as one Elden Ring player managed to defeat Malenia using a club as a Level 1 Wretch.

For some gamers, the challenge of Soulslike games is appealing, while others prefer a less demanding experience. One Elden Ring player desires FromSoftware’s sequel to be more accommodating to completionists rather than focusing on a grueling 133-hour grind. The game’s set difficulty is a recurring topic among Soulslike novices who are hesitant to jump in, leading to speculation that the studio may introduce an easier mode for newcomers trying out the genre.
