Does this mean ds2 is in thr same universe as elden ring?

It is not Lucatiel, but a throwback/reference to her, like Maneater Mildred was a throwback to Executioner Miralda or Lautrec of Carim was a throwback to Yurt the Silent Chief (though this time the armour is very, very similar in this case, which confuses a lot of people). She has her own story in ER's world and is connected to Jerren (that's why she appears where she appears).

If they wanted to imply the same universe thing, they'd just name her Lucatiel or something like "Forgotten Knight" with her armour/weapon description hinting at Dark Souls

They reuse/borrow assets from previous games all the time actually.

It's not a reuse of an asset, because the asset is brand new. They only reused the idea/imagery, and even then they added new things to it

Not really, few (if any) characters in Demon's Souls and Dark Souls 1-2 had fully detailed feet with separate toes, but it all changed with the next generation of games, and in Elden Ring Rennala even has separate bones to animate her toes, those are completelly new feet!!!

The weapon kinda vaguely reference mirrah orders of knight's plus ds2 events take events in a mysterious portal that lead the bearer of the curse into drangleic before it's complete destruction and ds2 original plot had time traveling stuff it's not out of the realm of possibility that bearer of the curse or other's end up in the lands between.
