How to use the Refractory Finger in Elden Ring?

Using the refractory finger allows you to attempt to invade another player's world.
Having successfully invaded, the invader's goal is to eliminate the host from the world.
If the invader succeeds in killing the host, or if the host dies while the invader is present, the invader is rewarded with 1x.runic bow and 1xCured Fingers Remedy, in addition to runes.
If, on the other hand, the invader fails and dies during the invasion, they will drop their runes as if they had died in their own world. (Any runes that were lying on the ground before the invasion will be permanently lost.)

Further information on the Refractory Finger

If the invader enters a boss arena, it is sent back to its own world.
He does not need to deliver the fatal blow to the host of the world. If he is simply present in the world at the moment the host dies, the invasion will be considered a success.
Invaders are perceived as allies by normally hostile enemy NPCs. This can be used to even out battles against hosts with many summoned players.
If the host dies shortly after dying as an invader, the invasion will be considered a success and the invader will then be rewarded and will not lose any runes.
After have killed all them players invoked, we will receive of the runes more.
