For people who aren't yet convinced that the Miquella ending is canon:
>Vargram (Raging Wolf) armor, the one used throughout the promotional material, says he was one of the first Tarnished to enter the Land's Between, and that he aspired to be a Shadow to an Empyrean. Who are the only Empyreans without Shadows? Miquella and Malenia.
>Look at this cutscene halfway through Malenia's fight where the Tarnished looks up longingly at where Miquella's cocoon was absconded https://youtu.be/epQZqzJRAfE?t=134 [Embed]
>The Spectral Steed whistle which originally belonged to Miquella (as hinted at and finally shown in the first keyart for this DLC), was given to Melina for safekeeping until Torrent found the fated Tarnished (Miquella's promised Lord)
>One of the optional starting items is Bewitching Branches from Miquella, the only demi-god related item accessible from the start of the game and a possible marker placed there by Miquella for Torrent to sniff it out and find his chosen Tarnished.
>The Spirit Calling Bell also comes from Miquella, and was a gift Ranni was instructed to give to Torrent's new Master.
>Upon completing Millicent's questline, the Tarnished is given a needle with droplets of dew that will restore Malenia's discarded dignity after she gave into the Rot to fight Radahn to a standstill, allowing Millicent's memories to live again in Malenia. This would simultaneously restore the senses of his sister while also giving the Tarnished a powerful ally in the coming battles to reach him. On top of that, the Unalloyed Gold Needle received after defeating Malenia and gifting her Millicent's resolve and memories allows the Tarnished to resist the Frenzied Flame, allowing them to save Melina without burning down the world.
>In other words, Miquella created and executed a masterplan with rest of the Empyreans (and Marika) to raise an immortal warrior who survived the badlands alongside Godfrey as his promised Lord while protecting his demi-god sisters.
>>
>already found three messages of the same guy wearing carian clothes and a staff

>>
Considering people can take the voice lines from the files and there are proper models that can be used, it's only a matter of time before someone makes a mod where you can join Miquella and get an ending for him. I just hope it's not going to be in poor taste and that it won't be created by some absolute degenerate creep.

Literally same here, intbros eating good. Wish we got more spells but apparently the thorns one is like absurdly broken and the most OP thing in the game right now.
We legit got the BEST SPELL AND BEST ASH OF WAR. I love it.

Just make sure you put carian sovereignty on a greatsword though, you get some hyper armor during cast with greatswords but not with other weapon types. You can put it on the great katana but idk if you get the hyper armor.

Radahn is Miyazaki's OC
>he was so strong and nice and had every power and his brother was in love with him and he loved his horse but he was also the greatest warlord ever and he stopped the stars because he's just that awesome and everyone thought he was the coolest guy

I KNOW Miyazaki wrote this trash because GRRM largely does a good job at giving his characters faults, glaring faults at that. The base game did a good job with this for the demigods but I guess Hackazaki won't stop until every single player is slurping on Fagdahn's nutsack as hard as Miquella.

>DLC adds a bunch of crafting materials
When do you ever get enough time to be using a consumable in a fight? And more importantly, do they really expect you to go scavenge for specific crafting materials, each unique to the area they're found in. And rare ingredient don't even respawn.
And, sure, some of the new consumables seem like they'd be fun to use. And I say "seem", because I only have enough materials to craft maybe 3 of them in total, so I dare not use them just to find out exactly what they do.

your main spells/incants with low requirements will carry you for most of the game. just focus on hp/fp and weapon level and add in the int/fth once you've got that
>>
>>483312480
Backhand Blades literally can't go wrong. You can run fucking anything on these things. Kill Leda for Hornsniggler as well so you get the anime "h-he's fast" ash of war and all you do is teleport around and slice bitches to death.

Absolutely comical broken weapon.

Fire is bad in Elden Ring because the world is build around tree worship, it makes sense in-universe to be wary of any strong fire it's not a japanese thing
In Dark Souls the age of fire is the only good thing that has ever happened and fire is directly equated to life. The fire going out is a very bad thing
The only time fire was bad in Dark Souls was when people tried to make a fire bigger than they could handle and it went out of control like in Izalith

Haven't gotten through even a quarter of the DLC yet but a thought struck me from the 'Messmer's younger sister' tidbit. The obvious conclusion is that this is Melina but another thought in my head is is it possible they have a similar dynamic to Marika/Radagon and Miquella/Trina where Messmer and Marika are two halves that are both the same and separate? Miquella was able to separate himself from Trina and it's shown that Marika is still around even after Radagon dies so it feels possible Along with that are also other things like Mesmer is based on serpents and flame, Melina possibly has the powers of the GEQ, meaning black flame and some relation to serpents (godskins with serpentine characteristics) as well as Messmer and Melina both having a seal of grace on their powers. Not to mention both of them being unknown to history, like Marika kept them both secret. The theory is probably bullshit since I came up with it in like 2 minutes with some loose tidbits of lore from the DLC but I think it's an interesting idea.

>>
>>483312262
there's literally no point anon. there is a single int/fth weapon in the entire game and it's a regular sword so it does fuck all poise damage and in the DLC you have zero time to cast the ash of war spells in the first place.

the only decent int/fth spell/incant setup is placidusax's lightning which trivializes every large boss. all the death magic sucks. yes even the new death magic. Explosive Ghostflame is alright but takes too long to cast and magic does fuck all for poise dmg vs ashes. incants are underwhelming without the proper focuses and Golden Order incants aren't amazing either.

i'm using darkmoon greatsword, which doesn't even HAVE faith scaling, because the only spear in the game you can put ashes on to get int/faith scaling still doesn't do enough damage compared to it, even with int/fth at the same level.

int/fth is a very gimped hard mode because even after 2 years From has yet to actually balance any of it or make it useful

I'm at the final legacy dungeon and after upgrading about 15 different weapons from the DLC nothing has come even close to matching my Occult Flamberge with Giant Hunt. Really disappointed with the weapons.

>>483313001
At max level it's C/C str/arc scaling but ends up with sub-triple digit magic AR so it's just the absolute worst kind of split damage weapon, with less total AR than pure physical axes.
The WA looks neat but does less damage per hit than the R1s and costs a fuckoad of stamina with a long animation commitment and terrible reach so it's just not practical.

The only thing that breaks questlines aside from a point of no return that you cannot possibly reach early is reloading areas unconventionally without talking to NPCs because of a bug. Soft spoiling but this includes an NPC you summon against Messmer that to need to talk to right away after beating him he or he disappears, and two NPCs in Shadow Keep after you get an item called Secret Rite Scroll that you need to give to Ansbach, exhaust his dialogue, QUIT AND RELOAD THE GAME ***ONE TIME*** to then talk to him again and get an item from him to give to Freyja that will progress several questlines.

No, sometimes the boss is so over aggroed on to (You) that you will be attacked right out of the fog gate. And a bunch of these idiots can't into Scadufrags so they die in one or two hits at the fog gate and their bloodstain spawns outside.

FromSoftware is looping back to one of the major complaints of DS2 which is 'hard because le prepare to die :DDD'. Radahn turns into an Ascended mod boss in Phase 2, nothing about it is fun it's just a bunch of spam to make this boss le big challenge that not even MALENIA is up to. It's one thing to have a boss with an instant kill move and healing on hit in the base game, another thing to have constant 50 piece combos without the lack of poise that Malenia has, another thing to cocktease us with two well made bosses in the DLC and another thing to reuse an optional Ivory King boss from the base game because people on Reddit wondered about fighting Prime Radahn. It's not that the vast majority of the collective playerbase is bad, it's that the boss is just unforgiving and I will not be surprised if Radahn catches yet another nerf

Arcane causes status effects to build up quicker (including bleed) so you could poison/rot things or go for sleep. it's not really worth it if you're not leaning into a status effect. you don't need to rot cheese everything from the get go but it's a nice option to have.

you just dodge around for a bit while allowing your summon to take aggro, attack the boss while you don't have aggro, and repeat

you do in theory attract aggro harder than your summons but it doesn't matter if you just dodge or barricade for a few seconds longer

They only added two
St. Trina's Swordpussy that causes sleep
And the stone sword that can become sword of light (only good to use to buff holy and switch to another weapon) or the sword of dark (it just stinks)

Neither are worth using outside of memes

I killed midra pretty quick, but I was summoning today as a phantom and had some success with circling around him. I think he turns really slowly, so if you run under and past him, I think it might work. It definitely hits you through i-frames, so that's not an option.

Alright, this will possibly be my last schizo posting.

I'm not sure if Moore is literally a Kindred of Rot, or just has an affinity for them. The Forager Brood are clearly pests, and if you tell him to be sad forever, he dies hugging one of them. He claims his mother abandoned them, so he thinks of Malenia as his mother.

Also Verdigris is the gift of an outer god, and its a corroded metal, as in rotted metal. Turns out rot includes rust, corrosion, and fermentation of all things

Base game and DLC have no effect on each others so it really doesn't matter which you do first.

Erdrtee spear is fine for now, lots of DLC enemies are undead, weak to holy or neutral to it. The DLC has a lot of faith weapons so you'l have plenty of new options.
As for spells, I'd recommend getting all the greater defensive buffs, they make a big difference early on when you don't have a high blessing level.
Offense-wise, any blackflame will do good work, and you'll probably want something long range to snipe.

For your talisman, I'd go with 2 defense/support, and 2 offensive one. Drop the moon imo, you don't need that many slots.

[21060100] Thou'rt Tarnished, it seemeth.

I think messmer knew the player was lord sanctioned because miquella told him, I think miquella knew full well marika wanted him as dead as all the other demigods, and that the original intent of the brambles at the tower was explicitely to keep us out.

That's not at all the point
Gwyn corrupted the natural cycle of the ages because he wanted his age of fire to last forever. There is no indication that letting the damn fire go out means bad shit.
The best possible fucking ending to DS3 is getting the Fire Keeper to snuff it out. The fucking game hits you over the head with it because the fire goes out but you and the fire keeper are fucking fine. Something else will take its place, things will endure and be fine.

this shit legitimately doesn't make any fucking sense to me, my understanding was that I'm basically filling an invisible bar that drains if I don't hit the enemy for a few seconds but otherwise remains filled until it's eventually completely full, causing a poise break - but that doesn't seem to be what's happening. Is there some sort of RNG component to it or are there animations that just swallow the poise break if it would occur during them?

Ignore that guy, it's a great weapon. You don't have to build around bleed, you'll still proc it a couple times a fight. It has A faith scaling, great range, and solid damage. It's far better than the Winged Scythe which was already one of the best pre-DLC faith weapons.

Summon Ansbach, summon a mimic tear, play as a bleed build yourself. Keep a shield for his map-wide holy attack or his meteor strike. Between you and the npcs, the bleed meter will eventually fill up enough times to kill him.

It also needs to fit between the divine towers, which is what is holding the veil up.

All of the Land of Shadow is filled with death energy because the hornsent who were the primary inhabitants of that part of the Lands Between (when it was whole) gathered the death energy into the crucible.
There's tons of references to the fact the Land of Shadow is where death energy gathers. Supression Tower, all the stuff at the bottom levels of Belurat, and the backstory for the Jars.

It definitely doesn't but that's just gameplay and story segregation I'd say.
Also the divine towers holding the veil up isn't what I assumed. I would have said it's the Erdtree itself.

>Gwyn corrupted the natural cycle of the ages because he wanted his age of fire to last forever.
There was no natural cycle in Dark Souls. Before Gwyn there was the big trees and the ancient dragons and somewhere in the depth of the trees humanoid wretches crawled around like insects
Gwyn finding the first flame and raising a civilization of gods and men is the first time the ages had changed in that world
It sucked for the dragons because their supposedly everlasting age had ended but from the perspective of humanity the fire started everything that was good in the world and the fire going out meant the decline of everything they had build

Messmer rules. Same with Midra.
Rahdan and Gaius suck ass. Miyazaki has lost his touch towards the end.
Level design is the best part of the dlc besides Messmer/Midra. Too many empty areas though.

Once you start a fire, the fire goes out
Once Gwyn kicked off the passage of time and introduced impernance and change into the world, the world is FATED to change.

Fucking the Ringed City beats you over the head with Gwyn's obsession with keeping the age of fire going unnaturally.

I am tired of the game trying so hard to be an action game when Souls' greatest strengths have always been exploration and worldbuilding, not combat. Most bosses aren't interesting, I don't like the Scadutree system, the expansion has serious performance issues. However, I still enjoyed exploring and trying the new weapons but I honestly have no desire to keep playing this game anymore. I never got into the PvP despite playing a lot of it in the previous games.

>Read her dialogue. She turns everyone into formless, senseless spirits unable to interact with the physical world.
There is absolutely NOTHING that points to this. Fucking learn English.
The Golden Order represents the direct divine ordering of the world. Mankind has no say but to follow the order as it is layed out.
Ranni wants to remove the divinity of the world to far away. Make the world free but uncertain.
Seriously I do not get how people don't understand this.

Nothing in that ending confirms that things will be fine or that something else will take the place of fire
The world returns to darkness which is the state it was in for the entire time of its existence before Gwyn came along
For all we know this time the darkness may be permanent
It's not that the world immediately ends when the age of dark happens but everything will fall apart until we return to the state of being mindless wretches as we were before the souls of fire granted us higher purpose

The lightning incants (Lansseax's glaive, Fortissax's lighting spear, etc) also had abysmal hyper armor and basically were absolutely shit to use. one little poke from a random fucking soldier got you broken.

Exactly at the final boss' second phase.

that's how the game works now. weapon art has a slow recovery? incantation takes more than .5 seconds to recover after casting? prepare to take a grab/get one-shot/get rushed into an unavoidable flurry of attacks with no chance to heal for the next 30 seconds or so
>>
Now that the dust has settled can we agree that everyone who was bitching about the DLC difficulty was completely wrong, except when it comes to Radahn?

Can we have that nuance?

Overall a top-tier expansion that is brought down a whole letter grade due to the last boss.
>>
>>483321895
https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Ranni+the+Witch
>Ranni's dialogue during the Age of Stars ending was mistranslated. In the English script, Ranni states that her age will be that of the chill night, and that she wishes to make the certainties of sight, touch, faith and emotion become impossibilities. However, in the Japanese script, Ranni states that she wishes to take the chill night away, she doesn't say that she wishes to take away emotions and sensations, but that she wants to take her order and herself far away from the world. She believes that the world is better off if the order that people live within is so far away that it is not something that can be seen, touched, or worshiped. To do so, she will leave the world along with her new order, preventing either from interfering with the Lands Between and those that reside there as its ordained god, unlike Marika under the influence of the Two Fingers and the Greater Will.
>>
>>483321878
>For all we know this time the darkness may be permanent
And for all we know it isn't
We don't KNOW, but the point is that the endless age of fire is NOT natural. It's not suppose to be the way it is.
The fire was ALWAYS meant to go out eventually. Ages pass, to CuiviƩnen there is no returning. Accept the passage of time.

This is and his foot slam spike have the most inconsistent hit boxes of all time.

I never said it was a mistranslation. The translation is definitely not good, but the point of the text is the same.
It's just dumbasses like you do not understand basic fucking English
Again, the literal quote you posted
>And have the certainties of
>sight, emotion, faith, and touch...
>All become impossibilities.
She doesn't say she wants to remove sight, faith and touch.
She says she wants the CERTAINTIES of sight, emotion, faith and touch to become impossibilities.
Certainty because under the Golden Order, things are ordered such that you cannot go against how the world works. Ring dictates the very nature of life and mankind.
She wants to give you the freedom to order things as you will. If you fuck up, you fuck up. But it's YOUR fuck up.
Something like undeath for example would be impossible.

6/10. A few certain bosses are cool (Messmer, Midra, Metyr), even from a lore standpoint, but the whole DLC feels like a shit asspull, the final boss is a joke, the big reward is a piss cheap dogshit 10 second cutscene, the map is an unintuitive to navigate pain in the ass and the Scadutree fragments are a plain shit mechanic.
Could've been so much more when you consider they spent over 2 years working on this shit and the best they could come up with is Miquella lusting for Radahn's cock and a dogshit eye cancer inducing final boss without any big payoff really. Should've been Godwyn I'm so fucking mad. They asspull whatever they want anyway, there's always some way to bring him back and justify it.
>>
>>483322554
That's another argument entirely.
I certaintly don't subscribe to the dark lord shit. Never did. That's as much of a perversion as Gwyn's endless age of fire.
That's why I go with Fire Keeper. Put it out and let what come may come. And I consider the ending to be hopeful. You're still there with the Fire Keeper. You can still hear each other, you're not dead. World didn't end. So lets see what happens next.
>>
>>483321878
>The world returns to darkness which is the state it was in for the entire time of its existence before Gwyn came along
The world prior to Gwyn is specifically GREY with the dragons and archtrees rather than an eternally night shit hole. Dark souls 2 goes out of it's way to explain the cycle of light and dark has been going on for a very long time and both options have constantly been selected in tandem with each other over and over again resulting in the choice being sort of pointless. Now 3 goes out of it's way to signify that this instance of the fire going out is more going out than ever before and must be lit more good-er-er than ever before but you are again presented with two endings going straight back to 1 of "you can also just let it go out and say fuck it" and does contradict the statement 2 has of "both options from 1 have been flip flopped over and over again and again". The DLCs for 3 even posit the cyclical nature of the world/middleground approach in that ashes goes out of its way to say "well sometimes the world grows stagnant and you have to let that shit burn but also to make a new world maybe don't get so into fire" from the painter loli and ringed city presents you going so far forward in time you're in an ashen wasteland completely removed from "fire vs dark" and the final solution in setting is to take the dark soul of man (which while related is not about the first flame) and starting over with the painting.

On paper the games present you with "the fire fading is bad go fix that" but taken as a whole none of the games ever outright say that the fire cycle is inherently good or the best thing for the world. Any apocalyptic notions from people are in universe.
>>

9/10.

Overall it was a 10/10 I had an absolutely stellar time.

Radahn was such a godawful miserable nightmare it actually made me stop playing the game instead of going into NG+.

Holy fuck.
More than most other bosses he feels really RNG. some of his attacks have windows, others barely. If he spams the high window attacks, like the bite, you can easily do it. If he doesnt, well get fucked I guess.
Pretty cool fight though. His moves are all relatively easy to dodge and telegraphed, just small windows to attack.
