Elden Ring contains a unique co-op mechanic. Players can choose to either use Spirit Ashes to summon their friends or choose to summon specific NPCs as they face difficult-to-beat bossfights. After the 1.03 patch for NPC Summons, players have more options to summon.

Of course, summoning these NPCs also requires certain conditions to be met, such as certain bosses or completion of certain quest lines, etc. Based on this situation, players often overlook some interesting NPC Summons.

1. Millicent can be summoned in multiple bossfights.

Millicent is a sick woman tortured by Scarlet Rot. Summoning her requires players to complete her questline and unlock the NPC Summon.

Players will need to present her with a golden needle, which will relieve her symptoms and give the player several useful summoning tokens later in the game.

In addition to this, players can also gift her with Valkyrie's Prosthesis. After this, players can summon this NPC during battles with the Godskin Apostle, Draconic Tree Sentinel, and Black Blade Kindred mini-bosses. It is worth mentioning that Millicent's fighting style includes Waterfowl Dance, which is also the signature skill of the strongest boss Malenia.

2. Patches can be summoned when you fight Starscourge Radahn.

Although Patches is mentioned, it is difficult for people to have a good impression of it because it is a betrayer. But if you get into Radahn's bossfight phase, he can help you as your ally.

In most cases, players will choose to repeatedly summon a fierce and familiar ally like Blaidd. And that's why Patches are easily overlooked and forgotten.

3. When you challenge Mohg for the first time, you can summon Dung Eater.

Summoning Dung Eater requires players to progress through his questline and release him to unlock his summoning token, and this condition is largely why players ignore his NPC Summons.

Dung Eater's questline requires players to advance when they bring the Seedbed Curses into his physical form, and the process is truly dark and evil.
