Bros, Radahn has filtered me...I might make a new character, what did you guys do to beat him?
THE CORRECT ORDER OF EVENTS:>1. marika allies with horah loux and possibly even the great serpent of mt. gelmir in a plot to get revenge for the shaman people>2. marika betrays the hornsent after gaining their trust; kills a bunch and mashes them into a divine gate which she immediately uses, casting the center of the LB in shadow and creating the erdtree>3. marika gets to fucking, producing messmer and melina with the gelmir snake. messmer and maybe even melina join horah loux and marika on a march on the giants after marika discovers their "vision of fire". there are still a ton of dead giants impaled by messmer on the mountaintops to this day. they're also separated from leyndell by "Forbidden Lands" that are cast in shadow and loaded with vulgar militia like the DLC4. when marika realizes she can't put out the giantsflame, she seals messmer/melina's eyes and she curses the last giant after killing the rest. this is possibly when the first of the bad curses get flipped back on her, corrupting her radagon alter ego and possibly messmer/melina5. marika only now initiates the final solution on the hornsent. messmer is wielding his cursed version of the fell god's flame and commanding fire giant tech wickermen in the extermination.6. at some point around here melina is rendered burnt and bodiless. could be that marika even commands messmer to do it and abandons him in the new realm of shadow, which may be the event which causes the schism between the serpent of mt. gelmir and the erdtree7. marika raises horah loux up as elden lord, gives birth to godwyn the golden, and sends the newly minted godfrey to kill the last holdouts of the previous order like the dragons and beast people.8. sated with revenge, she begins to realize the GW is fucky and that radagon is a threat. she sets her plan into motion for the tarnished and banishes godfrey. she stops 'playing ball' and the GW uses radagon to continue enforcing order on caria. everyone knows the rest.

the gaius fight wasn't that hard, idk what you guys were talking about
messmer no hit doneJust Bud and Yaoi left for the all major bosses no hit run...
>>483382695There's no evidence the snake is the father of marikas kids. The coloration of messmer's flame is identical to the giants flame and radagon is a giant(they come in many sizes iji is one too)
redcels are not sending their best
Six million hornsent? I think that number is too high. I mean I know that Marika was responsible for killing a few but that number is a bit highBut assuming she did kill that many they did deserve it
>>483382679I got tired of dying so I repecced into Greatshield poke
>get filtered by Blackgaol>fuck this I'll come back>collect skibidis>wander into the lion meme>kill him because he doesn't hit me as hard as blackfaggot knight>wander around some more>enter shitty fort>Sylvain Pontiff femoid wannabee claps my cheeks>summon Leda>put her down>A GREAT RUNE HAS BROKENThis shit is retarded and lacking in direction. I have no idea what is going on or why I am beating up these retards.
>>483382763>You literally do not have the Rune of Death in your inventory. It is the ONE great rune you can ever hold.Because you UNBIND IT YOU MORON, it's released in whole onto the world at large. It was never supposed to be a fucking rune. It was bound into a rune to stop the natural cycle of death. When you defeat Maliketh and break it, death is restored. Jesus Christ pay attention.
>>483382874if you see a fingerprint shield it's a guaranteed retard
why is the fingerslayer blade in nokronwhat's the relationship between nokron and nokstella
>Go to Cerulean Coast>Look inside>A third fucking Ghostflame DragonThis is the last one right? It was cool the first time, and the second time with all those Messmer soldiers involved was an okay twist with it now being a chaotic free for all, but this one seemed pointless.
>>483382695why do you think that the serpent of mt gelmir was ever allied with marika/erdtree
Does anyone know how to get into these towers in the Western part of Belurat?
>>483382904no, nerd. unga bunga.
>>483382874>has to chug 6 times after he probably killed 2 of your coop friends>immediately tauntscoopshitters showing your true colors
Sennesax is unfair bullshitThe fight is winnable but his attacks are asscancer
I'm not really enjoying the DLC.Didn't really enjoy Elden Ring as a whole so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.Still, feels bad man.
>Radahn is gay with Miquella nowThis is BULLSHIT. Can't believe I stayed alive for this.
>>483383003Should be the last one
>Seluvius is deadDid i lock myself out of getting the Dungeater summon?
>>483382986>why is the fingerslayer blade in nokronThe night niggers made it to rebel against the two fingers. As punishment their cities were visited by a calamity (Astel) and decimated.>what's the relationship between nokron and nokstellaJust sister cities.
Not related to the dlc, but these pics are supposed to be higher ups at the academy yeah? If so should the women to the farthest left be sellen in her original body? Her mask is clearly based on the woman.
>>483383075Yea
>>483383024solo taunting with sword and board
>>483383051>Didn't really enjoy Elden Ring as a wholeWhy did you get the expansion?
>>483382695too much retarded, obviously wrong stuff in there to even be worth a serious rebuttal
>>483382832>There's no evidence the snake is the father of marikas kidswhere else would messmer get his affinity with snakes and whole ass snake form? when else would she have time to ally with the snake and come into conflict with it such that gladiators in the time of godfrey wore snake costumes because of their association with betraying the erdtree?>radagon is a giantradagon is marika. if he's a giant, marika is a giant. but she's not a giant, she's a numan. even if people fusing together was a thing stated anywhere, there's no way some random giant would have the power to merge with and overwhelm the personality of a god.
>give the hornsent his mother's stew>save him from leda>assist him in getting vengeane against messmer>he still wordlessly invades me in rauh He couldn't at least have some dialogue there? If I have to kill him no matter what, I might as well as kill him as part of Leda's ganksquad so he can have last words
>>483382645>Invades looking for PvP>Gets mad when PvP happens
>>483383018Yes you can get there through a long parkour segment starting at the upper area blocked by shadow if you haven't burnt the thorns yet
>>483383018Much later you can go there, you cannot go there yet
>>483383165It's the contemporary Souls game and the trailer looked good.
>>483382904>It was bound into a rune to stop the natural cycle of deathExplain the Gloam-Eyed Queen holding it then
I think a Souls game with an unambigously happy ending would be perfectly fine.
>>483383018End of the DLC
>>483382831damn, anything special about the build?
>>483382584I refuse to believe Commander Gaius was actually playtested. I think the overwhelming majority of the whining about the DLC's difficulty is bullshit from From newbies and bad players, but this boss is actually broken.
>>483383102There's no actual evidence astel was sent be anything it could've just happened normally and like the nogs they are they took it as "ooga booga da geata weel is mad wit us n shieet"
>>483383060more like hes a meat puppet for bootleg griffith to enjoy his incest fantasies why didnt he just pick any other body, why did it have to be radahn and mogh, why not fucking godfrey or any other demi god we killed, it had to be radahn because he wanted to get piped by his brotherif theres an actual answer after the boss fight i havent beat it yet
>>483383023Then don't comment on the lore Grug you rock-brained fuck. Focus on swinging your big ass weapon and let others do the thinking.>>483383131It's not confirmed but is highly theorized that that woman was originally Sellen, yes.
>used summons>used ashes>used sorcery >used incantations >used AOW>changed weapon affinity to anything other than heavy>used anything other than a collosal sword>used jump attacks>used any items except health flask>used shields>used status effects>visited fextralifeYou unfortunately did not beat the game
>>483383060>he's not gay yet
>>483383249You didnt like base game.
>>483383224I usually just turn on godmode and one shot those faggots when I come across them now, they're cheating the game so why shouldn't I do the same?
>>483383278Lightning Bottle + Rolling Sparks is broken right now. Throwing it at the ground by an enemy's feet pops for 10k+
>>483383102>The night niggers made it to rebel against the two fingers.why is it so unique and fancy? what did the eternal cities do to make such a blade? why can't ranni just kill her two fingers normally? I fully expect there to be no answers to these
>>483383323>used anything other than a collosal swordGUGS nigger detected
>>483383051Base game was fair but balanced, dlc is just fuck you if you don't have the reflexes of a UFC fighter or enough skibidi
>>483383207>talk to him once at the start of the DLC>ignore him entirely after that>doesn't invade me in rauhYou're being punished for trying to be good to an omen
>>483383263dark souls 3 is right over there
Holy fuck those smith golem enemies that shot rocks are fucking aids. You get hit once and they stunlock you to death and they just keep fucking shooting non-stop. These golems take too little damage even when you backstab them.This dlc has to be the most unbalanced thing I have ever played.
>>483383009>why do you think that the serpent of mt gelmir was ever allied with marika/erdtree"The snake is viewed as a traitor to the Erdtree, and the audience delighted in seeing these bronze effigies beaten and battered." they have to have been allied at some point in order to be considered traitors, and that point would've had to have been early in order for it to effect the gladiatorial games during godfrey's time as elden lord. messmer was also using snakefire magic to purge the hornsent right at the very beginning of marika's reign.
>>483383131>>483383318what level of wizard fuckery is it to wear a mask of your own face
>>483383262Same deal, anon. The GEQ didn't exist fucking forever. She bound death first, Marika then did it again after taking it from her.
>stack a bunch of buffs>Agheel breath ohkos each of the sunflowers phases Lmao
>>483383207After Messmer his vengeance extends to everyone related to the erdtree but the fact he says nothing is disappointingFuck that guy though, ungrateful sack of shit
>>483383284I've been playing Souls games since Demon's and I'm sayibg SotE's balancing is fucking batshit retarded. It is so hopelessly too goddamn hard I donxt know how any new- or casualfriend has any hope of completing it.
Are these worm looking things in the finger ruins worms or are they a variant of fingers?
>>483383176Read the "his kind" part.
>>483383340absolute tranny
>>483383051What don't you like about it? I'm curious even as someone who thinks Elden Ring is one of the weaker soulsborne entries
>Only 3 light greatswords>Only 1 is ashes of war costumeableWhy?
>>483383131presumably>This gentle-looking crown was granted to a scholar who excelled in her studies, which also merited the title of "witch."
>>483383242>>483383245>>483383265Oh, okay then. Thanks guys.
>>483383278Since I'm running no-hit I can run all the buffs in the gameThe standard three (Scorpion, Alexander, Perfumer) but I can also use Ritual sword talisman, as well as the armour that gives a stacking buff to damage at the cost of lower resistances.I also went skibidi hunting, which is how I managed to get a 22.5k damage Rolling spark
>>483383263play Demon's Souls thenor get the Ranni ending
Malenia
>>483383207>Grotesque mask constructed from countless solidified caterpillars. A ritual implement of the greater potentates of Bonny Village. Used to ward off thoughts of impurity, doubt, temptation, and other wickednesses one is vulnerable to while absorbed in divine ritual.Reminder that he personally butchered Marika's people, and is assmad that Marika avenged them
Who or what the FUCK is the Formless Mother
People talk about Gaius' bugged charge and back kick jankiness, which I've also experienced, but I think some of his moves are bugged in beneficial ways. There are times when the boar will do one of it's side head lunge things and I'll feel like I should have been hit, but they just go right through me. Also his phase 2 spin ground slam thing seems like it has basically no hitbox. Awesome fight, it just doesn't feel like it was tested properly.
>>483383368It's the only honest weapon in the game
>>483383445Ancient Greek theater did the whole giant masks for their plays thing. Draws parallels from there since Ancient Greeks was seen as wise.
>>483383365>why is it so unique and fancy?We don't know.>what did the eternal cities do to make such a blade?We don't know.why can't ranni just kill her two fingers normally?Because apparently they can't be harmed except by that blade. At least by any other means we're aware of anyway. Though it might be less about not being able to harm them and more about them being incredibly dangerous to take on due to their connection to the GW. The blade might stop them from using whatever powers they have, cheese weapon basically.
>>483383207Marika was right about them.
So how does the lore from the DLC give context to the endings? Give me a quick rundown
>>483383550>the armour that gives a stacking buff to damage at the cost of lower resistances.What armor is this? I have everything else.
>>483383176>radagon is marika.is now, wasn't always. we've been over this. tehy have different mortal heritage, radagon is not a numen, he comes of the stock of the northmen who have fire giant blood intermixed with human.
>>483383390The age of fracture is the only good ending. It doesn't actually repair marika hence fracture, and most importantly allows you to hunt down rya and force any ring on her finger. This is the canon ending to the game. Rya pregnant with your snake babies.
>>483383483>The lampreys that guard the finger ruins resemble fingers far more than they do humans, and so the finger-weavers imitated their sorcery.
>>483383561Worst girl>we see her naked and she's built like a man>scarlet rot will turn your dick into a mushroom>cripple
>>483383678It doesn'tthe end.
>>483383284i got my shit pushed in because i was rusty and stuck in my own playstyle, but gaius and the fucking sunflower were the worst bosses so farexcept radahn since this is the only boss ive been stuck on for hours, genuinely might have my vote for hardest souls boss since phase 2 is just eye cancer
>>483383440okay, that explains it. how about this?>marika betrays the hornsent after gaining their trust; kills a bunch and mashes them into a divine gate which she immediately uses, casting the center of the LB in shadow and creating the erdtree
>>483383003It was never cool, having to fight a giant enemy is already a chore every time, and when you have a dozen other enemies fighting you it becomes even worse.I found a second death knight btw, not that bad since besides his sudden lighting dash the rest of his moves are fine, but there's some repeat fights even in the dlc unfortunately.
Is the DLC story is after the ending or before the ending?
>>483383562So Marika turned these guys into Wormfaces, right?
Haven't touched dlc yet. Replaying base game first. Is it as good as Old Hunters/Ringed City?
Fuck this piece of shit boss. Defeated him with the Sekiro tear. (It was the most fun I had in this entire meme DLC.)
>>483383638>Any UGS>honestLmao spamming jump attacks and R2s and having every boss spend half the fight staggered is NOT honest.>>483383612Just an outer god like the one the deathbirds serve or the rot god. We don't know much about her except that Mohg worships her and she has a big association with blood.
>>483383612She's an outer god, described as twisted. She's discovered by the oppressed and shackled
>>483383654thanks for humoring me anon
>>483383487it says "their kind", not "his kind". very important distinction when the when that "their" is placed after a plural use of giants in addition to radagon. it can be read accurately either way.
>>483383682Rakshasa set
>>483383689>is now, wasn't alwaysno way that's true
>>483383487Pretty sure the red braid is referring to them cursing Marika, who then dumped it on Radagon. Defeated races cursing the GO seems to be a common theme.
>>483383678It does nothing for the endings but does provide a lot of context for the backstory.
>>483383284This but Senessax
>>483383881explain how they literally come from different races otherwise?
>>483383826It's the biggest and best DLC ever made, even if the final boss sucks fucking dog cock. I don't just mean thematically either, it's horrendously overtuned compared to every other fight in the game.
>>483383340cant you get shadowbanned for doing this? i remember using CE in DS2 would get you shadowbanned and you would have to family share to another account to play again
>>483383709the forbidden lean
So if Trina is Miquella's love, what is Radagon to Marika? Her order?
>>483383817No but a plague turned all the evil Hornsent into those man-flirs
>>483383826The lore is terrible, the bosses are okay but some of them are blatantly overtuned. One boss plays as if he's a Devil May Cry player character and you're still stuck playing Elden Ring
>>483383263Yharnam Sunrise?
>>483383491It ER or it SotE?SotE is just too goddamn hard. I like what they did with trash mobs hitting hard as fuck but having little HP, so combat is fast and dangerous, but most of the bosses just feel like the worst parts of ER - endless strings that are a slog to wait out before you can take your turn, and every goddamn attack does 8 to 11 hundred damage so there's just so little room for error. And the NPCs all seem as bored and disinterested as me at this point. I killed Messmer and no one even cared. Got that random message about a rune shattering, and everyone just shrugged their shoulders. It just feels like empty struggle against overlyzhard bisses and trash mobs for nothing.
Radagon is MarikaMarika isn't RadagonThis isn't hard to understand, Radagon is Marika's St. Trina, he's Marika's loyalty towards the GO that she abandoned
>>483383974best thing about senessax: you can just walk past it lolbye retard!! gonna go fight the cooler dragon!! lol!!
>>483383826easily 5x as much content as old hunters and arguably better content at that.
Is there gonna be more DLC or this is the end?
What the fuck? I have no idea why this happened, I've never used a mod or anything on this game in my life, am I just perma banned now?
>>483383908>Pretty sure the red braid is referring to them cursing Marika, who then dumped it on Radagonthere's nothing to indicate this. "a curse of their kind", in context here, implies that the fire giants and radagon share a curse of red hair.
>>483383992I think Radagon is her Loyalty. After the fingers helped her gain power, she shed away her loyalty to them and spent the rest of her days selfish, plotting against them and throwing those she loved in harms way due to her utter lack of loyalty.Radagon recognizes what the Ring has done for him/this world and defends it.
>>483382695>marika raises horah loux up as elden lord, gives birth to godwyn the golden, and sends the newly minted godfrey to kill the last holdouts of the previous order like the dragons and beast people.Wouldn't this be like the first thing she does? How else would she claim the Elden Ring if the previous Elden Lord (Flacidsex) wasn't already deposed?
>>483384013i mean, they added a sekiro boss to elden ring with malenia and people loved itthe deflect tear should just be a talisman
>>483382831>lightning kills everything like indians bs trainsHoly fuck dexfags get all the cool stuff, as much as it pains me to do this I made another save for dex/int. Should I change to dex/fth? Main save is str/fth
>>483383724>gaius and the fucking sunflower were the worst bosses so far>the fucking sunflowerThat boss was the easiest remembrance boss in the DLC, I don't understand how anyone could find it difficult.>>483383804It seems like it's set before you burn the Erdtree.
>>483384013>>483383984>>483384067Kino. Can't wait to get to it.
>>483383724You don't rike it?
>>483383489>Faggots are cheating the game and making it impossible to win invasions because they have 2 level 700 phantoms spamming undodgeable spells>I do the same and edit a few memory values around to make my throwing daggers deal 9999999 damage>NOOOOO YOU CAN'T DO THAT YOU'RE A TRANNY NOOOO YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DIE NOOOOO>>483383986not if you're smart
>>483383974Sneedax
>>483384102yeah but you can restore from a backup and your ban goes away lmao
>>483384102It's a glitch. Just restart the game and you should be good. The ban message looks totally different.
>>483384102No you fucking retard the game just put you in offline mode
>>483384102>He accepted cheated in items onlineLol
So how does /erg/ feel about the fact that there's now an in lore possibility that miquella stole radahn's old armor and occasionally sniffed it to remind himself of his scent?
>>483384040doesn't the whole miqella/radahn stuff kind of put the "radagon is marika" thing in a different light? would it not just be the exact same thing?
>>483384102Creamapi? Doesn't look like a ban to me
is it godrick's axe or godfrey's axe that's shitty?
>>483382584i love fromslop
Why is Messmer's helmet the only one that comes with a wig, that can be altered to remove it? They should have went back and added this to Malenia's helmet and others
So... Godefroy the Grafted was behind it all?
When's the logical time to do the DLC? Should I go to it once I get to mountaintop of giants?
>>483383826Very good but last boss feels like it wasn't playtested enough
Despite what Miyazaki said FROM should do another DLC.>Godwyn>Badlands>Flame of the Fell God>Gloam Eyed Queen>Melina>TanithThere's your content paths
>>483383340>Looks for PvP>Loses>"I-IM JUST GOING TO CHEAT
>>483384187>not if you're smartand how do you avoid it, then?
>>483384083First last and only DLC
>>483384235Both are shitty>>483384298Go in when you're RL150. Nothing else really matters. Storywise it fits anywhere except post-game.
>>483384117in the greater context of races that marika exterminated having very real curse effects on her children, i think interpreting it as the giants having cursed her/radagon is fair. the omen curse and the scarlet rot are both from people she wiped out. if she kept having kids, i wouldn't doubt for a second that she'd pop out a frenzy flame baby for the more recently exterminated merchants.
>Exploring the fort near where the Dragon + Messmer soldiers are having a brawl>Abductor Virgins come outta the fuckin treesRYKARD TF YOU DOING OVER HERE
>>483382821When the host gets grabbed i pull out the "lamentation" prattling prate and laugh at them
>>483383724>the fucking sunflowerHe walled me so fucking hard at first but I think it might actually be my favorite boss so far.Flame Art nu-Giant Hunt 5-shots all of his phases no matter what your stats are. That helps.
>>483384117Why does Radagon look nothing like a fire giant then?
Why did Miquella let the Haligtree fail?
>>483384235Both, imagine not being gugspilled
>>483384313Godwyn is dead bro
>>483384187>faggots are playing the game as>i edit memory values>"i do the same"is this you in the pic
Elden Ring 2 will be a sequel focusing on the outer gods taking control of everything
I have finally seen a single streamer beat Radahn shieldless and summonless.
>>483384321nta but literally everyone on elden ring uses cheat engine
>Get invaded>Red doesnt take damage from sorceries>Infinite stamina>Host instead opts to jump around in circles around red instead of booking it to the fog door>Check reds profile>China with weeb shitIm not sure who I hate more.
>>483384408That didn't stop Radahn
>>483384204Oh good you're right I was worried for a second >>483384210>>483384230Neither of these I guess it was a glitch
>>483384313Nah they're gonna save Tanith Lady of Blasphemy and GEQ for ER2.
>>483384275always has been. that's why they had to seal him away.
>>483384431Please Miyazaki, add a fucking living town into the game
>>483384367because he's mostly human with some remote fire giant ancestry, which is literally one of the races you can pick when you make a character
I'm 48 hours deep in the DLC, 48 hours, not even counting the 150 hours of fully exploring the base game, I can't believe the game is this massive in all of my years of gamming I've never experienced such joy in exploring a fantasy worldthe absolute beauty mystery and horror of every single place you goI just reached the old lush green ruins and I can't find the map yet, but holy shit dudethis thing is just 11/10 art directionthe DLC itself has it's own problems, but man, how can other developers even compete?
>>483384102yes cheater we know what you did
>>483384348>>483384402eh, I never liked greataxes in these games anyways
>>483384357Theres more? I thought there was only the 2 near that torture base filled with omen killers
If a plot point includes how Marika keeps getting cursed by the people she's squashed, is it possible that the flymen curse in Beruit has a 'revenge' version in the lands between and it's wormfaces?
>>483384156i died to it more times then gaius, there was points where it did nothing but spam the fucking golden roots and never brought its face downalso the damage in ng+5 is insane>>483384179ive gotten decent at his first phase, but god damn i cant see half the fucking time, and it just doesnt end, at least the only bad thing malenia had was waterfowl, but you can at least see her regular attacks, my best try so far was 10%, still havent dodged the valstrax drop yet, first phase is honestly really fun, but phase 2 ruins the fight for me, like going from radagon to elden beast
>>483384447It's just the message that pops up when easyanticheat fails to load on startup
>>483384220Muskfag please go. I don't wanna read another tangent about smegma gravity boulders.
>>483384187BASED. Triple phantom niggers deserve nothing. They ruined fun invasions.
>>483384313We should get a dlc that takes place after the fracture or age of stars endings(you get one or the other based on your choices) and it's just a dating sim of the tarnished going around the lands between on dates with marika or traveling to different planets on dates with ranni. There won't be any boss fights but instead there will be in depth sex scenes where you do your best to pleasure and impregnate your chosen spouse, if you fail to tick down their pleasure meter they fucking kill you and make you restart again and again until you've perfectly attuned yourself to bring their personal ramrod
Any optimization guides? This is 3060ti on max settings and low rtx.
>smegma gravity bouldersKINO, grrm is a fucking genius
>>483383612read the arcane talisman; that's her.same kinda thing as the rot god (romina).
What the hell were they thinking with this swift slash ash of war? It's so fun.
>>483384410>summoning you level 700 friends to carry you by spamming rot breath is "playing the game as"

>>483384354this is a huge stretch. mohg and morgott are not omens because the hornsent cursed marika, it's just a thing that happens to kids born closely connected to the crucible and their dad was basically the poster boy for crucible powers pre-erdtree when it wasn't stigmatized yet.similarly the rot thing also isn't a curse on malenia, being an empyrean just makes you a suitable host for gods in general and the rot god claimed her for his own.

Doing a new playthrough for the first time since release. This game kinda sucks, desu. Big bland open world where most pathways only reward you with shitty mushrooms or artorias leafs. Bosses that spam attacks and leave you with a 0.1 second opening before spamming more attacks, with insanely delayed attacks thrown in to catch you rolling. It's just not fun.Think I'm just gonna go replay the Souls games instead.

The DLC is fun but i'm still using Creamapi, deal with it
>>483384821like a lot of things we don't actually have an answer to this. all we know is she called him to the capital, he left renalla and had a "union" with marika which not coincidentally resulted in the output of his flesh becoming demigods suddenly
>>483384853No, everyone is beating the game now, even that black guy that is popular with the new generation.
>>483384763>rot god claimed her for his owntechnically, romina was the original rot god going by her remembrance.
Am I interpreting the DLC lore right when I say that the Greater Will is capital 'G' God and never interfered with things directly save for sending some emissaries, the Erdtree, and the Elden Ring in some primordial era?

>>483384623>>483384841Invaders will never do this. They derive their entire self-worth from winning invasions. Its why they get so pissed off because they feel like theyre not good enough and they get the feeling that they wernt supposed to lose. So instead of getting better, they get mad and blame everything else for how "unfair" it was. This is also why every invader uses CET to give themselves max of every item.TL;DR:Reds are losers and they need to win at a video game to feel like their life isnt a complete waste.
>>483384883fuck, my greatsword has carried me the entire game, but might need to respec for Radahn

>>483384763>>483384983what this guy said. the rot god got soft retconned and was just romina all along.
I really dislike the "bloodbornification" of bosses whereas we move like the undead from ds1. Makes so many builds unusable without "cheesing". For example, I can't use my dragon breathe build which has a startup animation of 3 second alone and 2 sec for atk animation whereas the spazztic bosses barely give you 2 second of respite after completing their 15 attack combo then resuming again. From really designed the bosses for single hard hitting STR builds meanwhile ignoring all other builds.
>>483385091huh? but thats how u do it
>>483384872Yeah i dont have the perfume talisman yet so thats what i need.Does 2 handing affect the ash of war damage? I cant tell.

>>483385153a regular person can't just become an outer god. romina may have created the scarlet rot, but she is not the outer god of the concept of rot. it literally stated that she discovered a "divine element" which is almost certainly that god.
What's the point of any of the dlc story or anything else when Godwyns corpse issue hasn't been solved. Isn't it going to destroy the world regardless of what ending you do or what happens anywhere else? (Except MAYBE the frenzy ending?)

>>483385261there are at least 2 new emotes in the DLCvillage one and the BAD END cuck emote
DLC feels far too different and not in a good way. It's going to be grating as fuck 3 years down the line when you make a new character and the base game is 3154250243 erdtree spirits and 60000 watchdog statues and 243353154 reskinned whatever bosses that have a total of 2 moves, and then you head to le Skibidi dimension and every enemy has 60 attack patterns and every boss is vastly different thematically and art wise (aside from Radahn who rocks up in the last 3 seconds to remind you that Miyazaki is still a retarded gorilla monkey who cannot help but recycle content and guzzle cum.)
>>483383837The deflect tear really is gamechanging. Hope it doesn't get nerfed but probably will be because From hates fun.

>>483385397When I replay the DLC I'm just going to use cheating software to build a base game character. It's probably best to pretend the DLC is a separate game entirely.
>>483385249Both radagon and marika have fat asses. And for a guy radagon does have wide hips. If you look at ranni's corpses her ass is even fatter than marika's so it's likely rennala also had a large ass. It's a completely reasonable interpretation of the lore to say that only the omen and messmer had flat asses. It's very possible that godfrey and tanith are just into fat asses.

Man, after all this shit DLC I think that urinocally Elden Ring is about trans rights, I'm not shitting you, every single character has some transformation/change on their corpses, double names even clones with different gender, what the actual fuck.

>>483386096>perfume abuserITS AN HONEST BUILD
>>483383826>Is it as good as Old Hunters/Ringed City?No. The world design is annoying and makes exploration a headache. You can't fight any of the bosses without getting 10+ scudtree blessing. The boss design is more of the same shlock as the base game, meaning AoE spam and delayed attacks everywhere. None of the bosses are as good as Gael, Midir, Orphan, Demon Princes, or Ludwig.
>>483386282They did basically the same thing with the porcupine hippo
>>483385547I feel like that could be interpreted as them only being recognized as such upon the union, given that otherwise the whole twist would be spoiled. It could be literal, like you said, but I think the idea of Marika subverting the Carians using another aspect of herself is more interesting. Good talk.

>only three light greatswords My heart has been raped
What are the more interesting new weapons and armors you've found in the DLC?Personally, I adore the Rakasha Armor. Even though it makes you fold like a fucking wet tissue, the damage boost is actually very noticeable. It helped me get through Radahn pretty nicely, despite the fact that he chunked me for 60% of my health on any stray hit. The Smithscript weapons are pretty universally very fun too, even if I do not at all agree with their stat-requirements.
>almost first try metyr and got cucked by the ads>spend the next 7 attempts fucking throwing so hard>next attempt I rape her so hard I barely use any flask.Fight is fine. ALSO I CHALLENGE THE DEVELOPERS TO MAKE A DLC BOSS WITHOUT AN AOE NUKE PHASE TRANSITION
>>483385205moore alludes to being abandoned by her. like gowry.
>>483386531nobody in the shadow realm even knows what black flame is.
So why were people saying Radahn stopped the stars to save Ranni from becoming an Empyrean? I didn't see anything about that
>>483386586well done anonyou're finally free
>>483386429Moore is like Gowry, a humanoid kindred of rot. The other forager brood are those chill pests who give you cookbooks, and he mentions his mother abandoning the brood.
>>483386531the night armour, the woman knight guarding the finger guy in the church as the black flame symbol on her chest, Metyrs face is the same symbol....
>>483386336I agree that the world design seems excessively convoluted, but I feel like something that would make this a lot less sucky would be having more maps that only reveal areas relevant to their location.
>>483386507idk, just +10 they seem to deal way too much damage in pvpbackhand blades is your usual bleedspam r1 weapon
>>483385947we're missing an actual Maleniafag. Moore doesn't know her and has nothing to say about her other than that she rejects rot. There should have been a Cleanrot NPC talking about her exploits and personality like Ansbach does for Mohg.
>>483386612i like the spinny swordsshame the projectiles get stick on tiny ledges and rocks
>>483386463The world design is ass and you know it. Having so many of the other areas being hidden by obtuse tucked away tunnels and secret paths is just fucking retarded. Imagine if the base game was like that and you needed to find a secret tunnel to get into Liurnia or Caelid instead of just walking there.
>>483386586not yet, post your equipment and your stats
>>483386501guaranteed to make lorefags seethe
>>483386045If we're being honest have you seen radahn? Look at this man. His height alone would drive anyone crazy. He's like 10 feet tall or more. The player barely comes to his knee. Imagine how someone even smaller would be. He could literally pick someone up one handed, his big, strong hand wrapping around their entire waist, and just slide his massive meaty cock into them at any time. They wouldn't even be able to struggle. But he wouldn't do that. That's the best part. He's kind. That's the one consistent thing about him. He's kind and would ask permission, he would be as rough or as gentle as possible with you, he would take his time with you, make sure you're satisfied, and gurantee you become addicted to him. He's a selfless man. He's a large man. He's a handsome man.

>>483385612I just made like 10 copies of a level 120 character with a bunch of larval tears and all flask upgrades so I can simply use one when I wanna replay itno fucking way am I spending hours playing through the base game for the gorillionth time collecting everything
I simply invade at level 30-60 with my dragon communion twink and destroy absolutely every host and overleveled phantom I come across. You dont come across gank squads at those levels, just hosts who are awful at the game and their phantom pals who are just as bad except they have fancier armor.

Ranni succeeded in doing everything Miquella was trying to achieve with a fraction of the effort.She didn't have to do 9D chess to get what she wanted.She did 01 ritual to get rid of her flesh as to not be controlled by the GW and got her lord by just being cute.
>>483385647she didn't discover a "god", she discovered a godly element and became the originator of that. meaning, she was the first. malenia becomes the new goddess of rot (but we defeat her).

>>483387003fag shippers who are fags themselves are the most rabid unhinged creatures on Earth. You unironically can't make a canon homo pairing in your IP because that crowd instantly think you're on "their side". And gods help you if they ever think you betrayed them. They're obnoxious at best and dangerous at worst (aka doxxing, death threats, pipebombs even)
>>483385969The gender shifting stuff with Marika and Miquella is framed in mythological terms and is clearly taking from actual myths with similar themes.

>>483386798>>483386909>>483386953Even though Sam Winkler is definitely an incompetent hack, he's absolutely correct on this one. Remember when EpicNameBro released a 55 minute video about Flame God Flann, a character that was literally only mentioned in passing in one singular item description (Ring of the Sun Princess) and the entire description reading>This ring is granted to those who enter a Covenant with Gwynevere, daughter of Lord Gwyn and the Princess of Sunlight. This slightly warm ring boosts the synergy of miracles.>The Princess of Sunlight Gwynevere left Anor Londo along many other deities, and later became wife to Flame God Flann.and he somehow managed to try to squeeze out 55 minutes out of it. He later removed the video and added parts of that segment on a video about the pantheon of Anor Londo. But I know. I was there. I remember.
>>483386612the new magic version of the jar cannon is cool and fun to use
>>483387218That doesn't mean she originated it, it just means she discovered it. Its the same for every other outer god, the bloodfiends discovered the formless mother, etc.
>>483387218to add, she made "rot" from said element.this dlc goes all out in showing us actual gods. we get the mother of the fingers themselves. another lord of frenzy. a new god. an equal to the dragon god.

>>483383284>>483383482I'd say I'm 'casual that enjoys challenging himself' when it comes to Fromsoft games, with base game I've been trying to beat the bosses 1 vs 1 whenever I could and go for summons only when I've wasted ~1+ hour on single boss without visible progress. With DLC bosses I mostly don't have such sentiment when they attack me with bullshit like Divine Lion's 'floor is lava' or Rellana's moon nuke. With summons I find the difficulty just right, as the biggest gripe I have with the game is finding a window to rebuff/heal and split aggro helps with that a lot

>>483387185backhand blades' blind spot helped me kill radahn because i could reliably dodge the meteors, as well as the big final aoe slam from his extended swing combo with it. it's absolutely getting nerfed into fucking oblivion, but it's still funny to see that they just made bloodhound step into an attack that has more iframes than even bloodhound step in it's prime did.

Messmer by far is my favorite fight in the DLC and maybe of the entire game even. He's a right balance of difficulty and leaves plenty of room to attack in between his combos.
Man, im burned out. These zones while often pretty feel barren as fuck of any interesting enemies. I was expecting big things from shadow keep and fuck, its just empty. Like they spent all their time on bosses but forgot to add in the enemies inbetween.
>>483387480I only ever found bear claws that are strength based
>>483387202Thats exactly what I do. I could just spray them with Ekzykes's Decay but thats just my panic button to kill especially annoying phantoms.I prefer terrorizing them over a long period of time by killing all their phantoms repeatedly, stalking them with concealing veil, harassing them with jar cannons and great bows, etc

This makes me wonder. Why does the guidance which is controlled by marika, point you along ranni's quest if you do it but points you to killing miquella? Why? She says for her kids to try to become Gods in melina's quote of her, and clearly doesn't mind it if ranni does it. So why does she not want miquella to do it? Is she just homophobic and hates gay men?
>balance>in a single player gamethere's always one of these faggots

Began with DS1 back when AotA came out and radahn 2.0 is quickly becoming the very first fight in the history of the series that has made me want to just give up and resort to any cheese necessary purely so I can be finished with it. I am finally filtered.
>>483387819>So why does she not want miquella to do it? Is she just homophobic and hates gay men?She wants a Tarnished to rule, and that fuccboi refuses to fuck anyone but his brother
>>483387787Some consumables are limited because of the powerful buffs they can give you. Thats how they balanced it out. Using cheats to give yourself an effective infinite supply removes that scarcity. They wernt meant to be spammed. They were meant to be saved and used during that one moment you really needed them.
>>483387820?how is balance not relevant in a singleplayer game?

I summoned a guy to help for Messmer and he did something like 12500 damage in one hit with the sunflower. Da fuk??? Is it just high skibidi level or what was going on there?I was curious so I got the sunflower and leveled it to +9. Still wasn't doing more than 1000 damage.

Furnace golems are fucking terrible, either you waste time farming for shitty crafting pots to cheese them or spam attacks on their legs while trying to avoid their shitty aoe lingering hitboxes for 5 minutes. Awful.

how the fuck do people live with themselves wearing bullgoatsseriously I don't get ithow do you choose to play a single player game wearing something that fucking uglythe number of white phantoms with bullgoat fingerprint or bullgoat offhand PoD is insane
>>483387691can you repeat the question
>>483387374>Rellana's moon nukeRellana's moon nuke is probably the best version of that kind of attack -- you just run away and jump twice.That said the entire fight is horseshit and that genre of attack isn't fun to deal with.
>>483387392See you in the next rollslop general
>>483387998Pretty much anything of blue/purple quality.Youre trying to be dishonest when you know exactly what im talking about.

>>483387783you run backwards and roll after the first couple thrusts. if an attack lasts longer than your iframes you need to be out of its area of effect after the roll. it's not rocket science.

>>483388239yes he and his people are literally fantasy biblical jews
>>483388113I get they were going for a shadow of the colossus style of fight but they missed the mark by a lot. Should've added a gimmick weapon or consumable to make it more enjoyable. The armored leg ones are by far the worst. Their firestorm spam is terrible.
>>483388198>didn't list any i accept your concession
>>483388228You're the ballsiest Tarnished the Lands have ever seen, and bizarrely charismatic, at least according to Rogier.She's also down with having Godfrey win though so there's that.
>>483388136whatthere's a reason why we only get 14 charges maximum to the estus flaskdo you think that's just an arbitrary number?
why are there even abductor virgins in the land of shadowaren't those rykard's thingys
>>483387891>Thinks about murdering all of her companions since they might not be super loyal to Miquella>Never suspects you at all despite you being the only one who actually wants to kill himLeda is a bit of a dummy.
>>483387783You mean the one that starts with him helicoptering through you before doing it? Rolling into it diagonally worked for me, but the timing is tight. Don't listen to >>483387853Even if you take one hit out of five, it's worth it because the ending of that combo lets you get off a fully charged R2
>>483387912Nta but they match well>theyre both nutjobs>theyre both obsessively goal driven>theyre both willing to do heinous things for their ambitions>they'd both go to the ends of the earth for their ideas>their goals are to become a god and elden lord respectively >miquella values strength and the tarnished fucked up his sister and even got a compliment for her I think it's a massive missed opportunity to pair miquella with radahn. Miquella should've been an obsessive yandere for the tarnished instead. Then we'd get more /ss/ art with him
>>483388228but...i'm just a tarnished of no renown
>>483388113>shitty crafting pots to cheese themQrd? I'm not fucking dealing with their attacks if I can help it.
>>483388324what fucking part of those golems is "shadow of the colossus style"? the fact they're big and nothing else? you can't climb them or even jump on top of them.
>>483387828I tried that, and I kept getting hit anyway. Sometimes I could just roll early and get a perfect timing, but I'd just keep getting hit by them for some reason.

Anyone tried doing invasions in the DLC? Are they as cancer as they were in the base game? I stopped bothering when 90% my invasions were gankers with max level phantoms
I'm at +15 skibidi and nearly explored the whole map before killing mesmer. How the fuck are you anons getting +20?!
>>483388196Nope I already didn't care for a lot of DS3 and Elden Ring was the final straw.I also didn't like Sekiro but I don't count that and now the DLC and Sekiro are two things I finished out of spite and not fun.I will not suffer this a third time
>>483387712Most of his combos are like 3 hit attacks with the only exception being that one move that ends with the spears coming from the ground. They're also very telegraphed and generally easy to read.
>Failing at fire golems Lightning Perfume and Rolling Spark.You're welcome.
>>483387326All shippers that live permanently on twitter are like this though.
>>483388327Thank you for admitting you were being dishonest.
>>483388296Unironically tempted to do the same. >>483388382You can throw hefty firepots if you can get above them but you need like 5-6 hits inside the basket, miss a few and you're fucked.
>>483388370ok pedo now face the wall

>great katana are shit>there's only one infusable light greatsword and it's ugly>the only form-fitting plate armor in the game is gloom- I mean night armor, and it doesn't match any weapon and looks like shitThis DLC really let me down.
>>483388246there are some which have armored legs and the only way to deal any real damage to them is throwing several hefty fire pots directly into it's top while it's spamming fireballs at you. It's some Bed of Chaos type of bullshit, except this time you need consumables.
>>483388471>Allow invasions>Absolute no fun allowed complete minmax abuse>Do coop>Absolute no fun allowed bleed/flies spamFor the first time in any Souls I don't even bother doing any online now. The DLC online I have done so far was terrible.

>>483388593>>great katana are shitAt what? They're doing fine with me on bosses
>no hit no parry radahn consort>every move easily dodged by just dodging to the left or straight backwardswhats your excuse?https://youtu.be/pQT535nK1G8
>>483388228>>483388345It's actually kinda cute in a way. The only people around that marika has any faith in are her ex husband, her step daughter, and (you). You all represent her salvation, if godfrey succeeds she gets her man back, if tarnished succeeds she get a new man, if ranni succeeds she gets freedom from her godly prison and gets to be reunited with those she loves depending on where dead souls go. Marikachads won. Because ultimately even ranni lovers are on marika's side in the end.
>Just drugged the dragon priestess with thiollier potionKek that's interesting
Between the hornsent and Marika, did she do anything wrong?
>>483388471i did a bunch tonight and every single one is still a 1v3none of them seemed to be max level however
>>483388549>if you can get above themAh so like none of them. Cool.
>>483388669>whats your excuse?the fact that half the moves he does in p2 lowers my fps down into single digits.
>>483388471>Anyone tried doing invasions in the DLC?yesAre they as cancer as they were in the base game? pretty muchhowever its still a primo time to invade if youre going to do it, there is actually broken enough shit that lets you fight 1v3 and still sometimes win, like the bone bow and my god the swift slash
>>483388549>>483388382They die in 3 pots. Its only for the 2 or 3 of them with a spiritspring next to them and the armored legs. You wait for them to get close and drop them in the baskit.
>can't infuse it and keep impaling thrust because impaling thrust can't go on fistsbravo
>>483388691I told him about Trina and now he's spent the entire DLC just sitting in front of her saying 'pleade leave me alone'.Wish I'd told Leda to kill him.
CUUUURSE YOUUU BAYYYYYLE
>>483388701I knew a girl that looked like this irl, half black american half white, her skin was still dark and her eyes were blue but darker than that. It freaked me out. She was mentally unstable and into raceplay with white guys. Your character even has the same mentally unwell resting bitch face she had. Good job
>>483386774We needed a Cleanrot NPC who uses a faith katana. I can't believe we got two more Int katanas in the DLC
>>483388817>Get his bow>You yell before you fire Kino
>>483388752how does the bone bow allow you to 1v3 people?
>>483388347if you mean is it related to some computation around optimal player healing then no, there's zero support for such a theory.if you mean is it entirely arbitrary a la throwing darts then also no. it's not entirely arbitrary: the most likely explanation for 14 in particular is that they wanted the player to collect meaningful things as they progressed and explored. and seeds are such a thing. the number 14 grew naturally out of how many seeds they placed on the world map. they placed the seeds, and then reduced the total number a bit in case people missed some.even in the pvp there is barely any concept of balance. give it up, it's not a balanced game. and that's fine. it would be more fucked up punching someone did as much damage as stabbing them with a spear
>>483388406yes, that's exactly my point. Is just a huge guy that you have to slowly wail at until it eventually topples and dies
>>483388816Didn't you keep drinking Trina's dew?
>>483387339Ornis is not worth the FP to summon himThe generic Horned Warrior ash does more damage and survives longer it's so weird how the DLC has better common ashes than special ones
>>483388471Yeah so far I got>Open world with 3 passive shitters that just stay right by the grace, host DC'ed after an hour>TT double spear poiseblob faggot with blues on (Both blues were insanely disgusting frenzy spammers)>1 guy with 2 max levels who just melted the fucking PvE and me but the host died to the PvE when he was teabagging me>2 Limpgrave grace goblins BACK TO BACKThe current system is unsalvageable, not to mention invading near/far also can make you invade in the dogshit base game areas
>>483387668I also feel like the enemy encounters are one of the weakest elements of the DLC. You have areas that are perfectly fine like the Specimen Storeroom or Belurat, but then there's a lot of dungeons that are in dire need of more enemies / better-designed enemy encounters.Remember the room full of sorcerers and the giant pot in Raya Lucaria? Remember the room where you're getting bombarded by 3 sorcerers from 3 different directions right after that, with a lazuli sorcerer waiting for you? Remember the courtyard encounter in Stormveil with all the exile soldiers? Remember the Haligtree? And so on and so forth, the base game has a lot of memorable combat encounters. The DLC feels like it's afraid to throw more than 1-3 enemies at the player at any given moment, which doesn't make sense because it's the endgame. You should be getting raped in every room you enter, yet half of them are empty.The church district of the Shadow Keep is the worst example of this. Look, I get that it's flooded and that precludes the inclusion of a lot of enemy types, but it's essentially entirely empty. Where are the crossbowmen peppering me with bolts and fire pots while I try to jump across the wreckage? Where are the shadow militiamen ambushing me while I'm fighting off bats? At least put a lobster or two and some slimes or something in the flooded section instead of... 2 crabs and 2 ulcerated tree spirits, wow.>>483387650He's great, yeah.
>>483388896I think I've drank it twice. Didn't seem to effect anything
>>483388913Yeah, it's bizarre. That said, one of my test runs ended with him getting 11 kills instead of 3.
>>483388689>>483388228do also consider that it might've been two part favoritism1) guiding melina to the erd tree (where two fingers locked off the capital so she can't just pop in there) and explain why she's resurrected + the plan2) since you were already chosen by melina to walk the path to destined death you've proven yourself to be at least sorta capable

>>483388689So if we do ranni's quest, marika's guiding us could potentially be interpreted as a step mother trying to get her NEET step daughter to get off her ass, get married, and get on with her life? Bros? Did marika do a single thing wrong? Ever?
>>483388669>BHSlmfao nice boss design
>>483388382You need to spend ultra rare crafting mats to make hefty furnace potsThen you need to do platforming while getting pelted by firestorms and the instant mil kamehamehaAfter that you need to wait for it to get close and jankily throw the pot into the basket and it takes like 5 to kill themIt's about as awful as fighting them normally
>>483389260>Did marika do a single thing wrong? Ever?she's not my mommy

In other words, enjoy experimenting with new weapons while you can do so completely unhindered by the stigma of doing so.

Can you get all the stuff from Radahn remembrance, or are you limited to cloning the remembrance only two times?>Assume a luminous form and leap forward to deliver a downward slash at the speed of light. Demigods can move at the speed of light now, damn, this dlc really went full anime bullshit. Guess that was the only way to make Radahn look definitely stronger than Malenia.
>>483389610>their cookbooks mention that fermenting is another form of rotting, so they ferment the livers and stuffThat's actually a very cool detail.
>>483389681Swift slash abusers are subhumans and you should do your duty to kill them on sight.>spinny-throwy hammer manThat's me, except I've accepted that the hammer is only good at close range, ironically. The charged R2 can't be rolled out of, I think. At range, you're better off throwing the smithscript shield (which is evil) since you're already using one smithscript weapon.
>>483389720>jagged thin sword>no curve>its a katanaFor what fucking purposeit shouldve been either a light gs or even a heavy thrusting sword
I'm surprised we never got a powerstanced dagger
>>483389338I bet you could convince her to let you call her mommy if you become her consort >>483389502That's the secret ending to elden ring the after credits. It ends with pregnant marika restored to health thanks to the elden ring. Or a pregnant ranni, given a more fleshy body by the elden ring. The entire message of elden ring is to actually marry and reproduce you see, this is why the dlc had us kill two gay men and a man who wanted to be a woman.
How much harder would the DLC be on NG+ you think? I'm pretty sure that even if I went level 300+ and just started full haveldad I wouldn't have the skill needed to beat some of these DLC bosses.
>>483389840what
>shadow sunflowerSo wait did this thing grow from Miquella's great rune?
Unpopular opinion but I think it's fine that the game is balanced around the existence of spirit ashes since they're meant to be a core new mechanic. The reason the strings last so long is because your spirit is meant to help you create openings.If you're not good enough to get past through a boss without spirits, just use the fucking spirits instead of bitching online that the game isn't balanced around your mini challenge run.
Where is the Gloam Eyed Queen
>>483389829Speaking of heavy thrusting swords, what's the point of Queelign's?>>483389840What? Also use the main gauche

>>483382821The bosses have a new ai and target the host 90% of the time. Unless your using multiple aggro pieces, bad hosts will just continue dying.This is made painfully apparant if u used any npc summons.To test: go fight like morgott with melina, his dumbass cant figure who to focus and u both shred.Summon freyja for this divine beast. She wont get aggro, ever.

Did Starscourge Radahn's meteors always floor you?I got lazy near the end of his fight because I was breezing through most of it with my gravitas hand axe.Was slow on dodging the four meteors and got taken down from ~1600hp to 0hp in an instant.Granted, I am using radagon's soreseal at lvl 60, so I don't know if that contributed to the damage negation.Regardless, hot damn.
>>483382584yellow chads won
>>483387003>>483387326How did they create such a pairing that literally fucking NO ONE likes? Lmao
Very confused on the hornsent enemies. Why are they black phantoms? Why are they in the shadowkeep if they’re enemies of Mesmer? How come the curseblades, inquisitors, and horned warriors aren’t black phantoms despite being hornsent?
Which items tell you Marika's people, numens, all that, were killed by hornsent? I just visited her village.
I've gotten my skibidi up to +15Do I have to burn the tree to get more?
>>483389889I don't agree with the idea that the game is "balanced around" a mechanic that interrupts the flow state of FromSoft boss fights. That's the point of the boss fights: you're (usually) dueling 1v1 with your foe and looking for those openings, which universally exist without the aid of spirit ashes. You are right, however, that spirit ashes create more openings for the player. That's why they're an accessibility concession, they're there for people who don't necessarily want to engage with that aspect of the game's design fully, but want to play through it regardless.I'm not making a value judgment about spirit ashes when I say this. I don't care if you or anyone else uses them. They're cool. But they directly disrupt the gameplay experience by design as an accessibility concession.
>>483390176>Did Starscourge Radahn's meteors always floor you?Yes they always did like a million damage if the whole cluster hits
Man it really should've been Godwyn instead of Radahn...

>>483388483Armored Core 6 was their best recent game.
Wait hold on hold on if the ending is really "impregnate marika or ranni" how would that work as a female character? Especially since radagon seems to be dead. Do they impregnate you instead? How?
>>483390008Good. I'm eager to try the H2H weapons, but I'm really not sure what sort of build they belong on.
>>483390268You can go to +19 before burning the tree
>>483390185The option should be added but I like having to babysit random hosts until the boss is dead so I hope they don't remove random short term summons.

genuinely how are you even supposed to beat this guy with a normal build, his attacks are impossible
>>483390491Yeah they’re hornsent. They have small horns. It just doesn’t make sense how they’re burnt but the other types of horn sent aren’t.
>>483390407An official one would likely include invasions, if invasions are included at all. I'm beginning to think Elden Ring might be the last game with invasion multiplayer, if only because the DLC made literally no improvements and increased the status effect bullshit tenfold.
>>483390525it is pretty eye opening to see what the average player is like
>>483390407the rule of "you need a phantom to get invaded" kinda ruined invasions anyway, since it now defaults to whoever can outfuck the other party firstduels are nice, but invaders are so afraid of getting ganked that they prefer to attack first, and then get ganked
>>483390460Okay but what IF YOU chose a female character. That's what I'm asking. Women can't impregnate other women. Neither marika nor ranni have cocks
>almost solo 3 man death knight for host and his buddy>host steps in at the last second>gets two-shotGoing to have to work extra hard for these rune arcs I see.
>>483390592Shield I feel will play a big role for a lot of people this DLC.
>>483390592>a normal buildOnce upon a time, using a shield was the normal build in souls.
>>483390393agreed, maybe they could use a system like the small stones from 2 for that kind of mp
>>483390354>>483390576I wonder something, what if Gideon actually peered into radagon's mind thinking its marika
>>483390646>>483390365>Okay but what IF YOU chose a female characterThere are no female characters, that's why it says body type A and B, they both have dick and balls. Lore scholars have known this since day 1
>>483390580It sucks dudeRandom shadow people with pots have fragments, random strong enemies that don't even count as mini bosses can have them, some are hidden in obscure locationsThere are no markings or indicators for where to lookIt's the worst scavenger hunt
My kingdom for a pair of dragon clawsSurely its not just the beast and bear claws...s-surely...
I respect FromSoftware's brave stance against zooming the camera out when fighting gigantic monsters that fill up the entire screen. It surely must take a massive amount of courage to go against logical game design principles that they've followed in previous titles for literally no reason.
Radahnfags face it. Miquella cannot control the mind, it's absurd! They only thing Miquella posseses is a cute shota body which Radahn couldn't resist just like Miquella's followers.UUUOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ~Radahn 2022
>>483390646If Radagon is indeed Marika, then he isn't dead and probably can still pump your femTarnished.Ranni can probably do whatever with her doll body, surely outfitting it with a cock wouldn't too much to ask.
>dryleaf arts has 400 AR>beast claw has 500 AR + bleedman why is the AR so ass on the hand to hand weapons
>>483390059That really depends entirely on the fandom. I've seen straight fag shippers go utterly mental too. It all depends on how much bait a ship gets in the media itself. If it seems like a done deal or a relationship that just goes unquestioned only for it to be completely sunk by some random ass plot development these people will lose their minds. The same can be said for Japanese waifu fags if they see the girl they like fall in love with someone in the show. They will literally kill themselves or burn down kioani like that one schizo.
Can I revert the stone-sheathed sword back if I transform it?

>>483390185>in future games>not overhauling ER's dismal multiplayer componentGrim.
>>483390525Co-op too. It's so fucking grim. There are so few players who have interesting characters or builds that aren't the same shit you've seen in YouTube videos 1,000 times over. They don't know that gestures exist. They hide behind their summons, or you if you're the summon in a boss fight. They die to literally everything, if a gnat breathes on them it's over. There's no sense of community or decency like there was even after the PC release of DS1, or during DS2.>>483390567I really ought to go get this thing ASAP, dueling shields look really interesting despite not being OP or anything.
>>483390185If he makes us pay for this in another dlc.....
Leda's pretty cute....Is it worth betraying Mohgbro?
>>483390795I sure love that fat fucking hippo>>483390805because the arts has a great moveset but the claws makes you commit on the second R1
>finished Erdtree>done all quests>got everything I can getwhat now bros... I want more....
if you have 2 phantoms you should be able to be invaded by 3 people and without friendly fire on between them
>>483390620Yeah its pretty obvious fromsoft is phasing out invasions to appeal to casuals
I wanted an ending where I can hug the cute shota and start a comfy age of kindness
i'll be so sad if i dont see miquella x malenia x trina
Why do NORMAL enemies hurt more than bosses
>>483390795The worst part is that they can do it. They have done it. They just decide not to, because fuck you.
>>483390921It's over. You go outside and blow the stink off you or wait for Elden Ring 2.
Was this really fucking necessary Michael Zaki?
>>483390929Okay but put back seeds of fallen giants
>>483390541Redman touched you in your nono places?>>483390620That's my thinking too. Invaders have been nerfed into the fucking ground to the point you gotta twink up with hyper-optimized oneshots builds to find any success. Even so, things were fun in Demon and Dark Soul>>483390639It's more like as an Invaders you gotta lean on exploiting the hosts overconfidence since you'll invade 3 peoples the majority of time. I like activating taunter, putting the hunter ring, and hiding with camouflage. some ridiculous shenanigans happen
>next game has permanent coop with 2 other players>but you can also be invaded by 3 player parties
>>483390809you're thinking of idolfags
[i'm still using the solitude armor set]
>>4833909212nd character, co-op, invasions, arena, NG+It's a little crazy stepping back into the DLC on a 2nd character. It makes you realize just how fucking huge it is in terms of the breadth of content. The depth leaves a little bit to be desired, but whatever.
>>483390810no but you can transform it once more after this
>the dlc is beautiful and the world design and levels are some of the best from has ever made>but the bosses are just nigger tier bullshit from start to finishwhy, michael zaki? why?
>>483390919The hippo isn't even that bad. I just reached Senessax and I can only conclude that nobody actually playtested this shit because even playing unlocked it's a miserable experience trying to see what the fuck he's actually doing. Don't even try to play locked on because the camera will literally go backwards facing the wrong direction all the time as all his attacks have forward momentum on them that puts his head in front of you, but all Ancient Dragon fights have this issue; they're just a shitty enemy in general.
>>483391035dealthat was their way of balancing host vs invader in previous games and they threw it out the window and went for a completely unbalanced and unfun approach instead
>>483391046Like watching a nature documentary between the mating habits of a red and a blues fat greatsword
>>483391098They still go equally insane over character worship. In this case, it's just two characters instead of one.
>>483390365>>483390646>what if you play a female character Marika being able to grow a cock isn't out of the realm of possibility. Rykard has her blonde hair despite being rennala's son. Maybe that's why he went insane?https://files.catbox.moe/20s1ex.jpg
>>483391113I'll pass then. I don't have the faith and the untransformed design is sick. Thanks for answering.
Her leaving her clothes here implies she got naked and wandered off
avoided the thread due to spoilers>ctrl-f rolling sparksI see everyone else has also realized.This thing is so fucking busted I think i've beaten the last 5 bosses I fought in speedrun time. Stacked talismans and even berserker armor for maximum damage. why the fuck are perfumes boosted by roar talisman?Beat the game with it and now I can start a new run and use something normal and maybe see more of the boss fights
>>483390790Yeah at that point I don't blame people for looking up their locations.At least with golden seeds they're easier to spot or find. But this shit isn't...
>>483391012those axe niggers hit like Radagon with his hammer it's insane

Messmer eats my asshole. Fight was easy, he got absolutely dommed and trooned out to sissy hypno.
Thighs are thick but my ass sucks.
>>483391269Nah he's the best anime fight from has ever made if you exclude Sekiro
>>483390809Those are gachafags and tumor fags. Waifufags have been waifuing chracters like Holo that have canon lovers for agesAnd the kyoani guy had nothing to do with waifufagging or shipping. He did it because he was convinced they plagiarised him

Am I retarded or is 100 new weapons actually not that impressive? One (1) SINGULAR int/fai weapon. ZERO fai/arc weapons. The fact that the DRAGON WHORE's mace doesn't have faith scaling is BEYOND RETARDED

>>483386798hahahahhThis is literally 100% true
>>483391408This idea that devs should not reuse old assets is dumb and retarded. The amount of time wasted because X firm has to remake animations done a hundred times by other devs is capitalism gone wrong.

>>483391438just wait until the content creators make the weapon tier list (DLC weapons will consist of the top 20% best weapons) for you so you don't have to make these retarded claims
>>483391341They just need to make the souls mmo. Big firelink hub, customizable maiden pet follower, new big dungeon every few months. Would be kino.
Is there a way to drink the loli juice without dying?
>>483389879I beat the dlc at level 302 on NG+4 with only 17 scadu fragments. It's doable, but its fucking absolute aids and cancer, specially for bosses like Radahn, Putrid knight, and Frenzy guy who just combo for 5 mins straight. High level helps you use various weapons though, so I was able to interchangeably adapt to certain bosses a little bit.
>>483391438fai/arc, being absurdly strong already, doesn't need new weapons
Turns out the Radahn twist was foreshadowed all along in Malenia's equipment descriptions and just got localized out of the English version.In the original Japanese Malenia actually differentiates between "brother" and "Miquella". It seems unnatural because she says brother in one line and Miquella in the next and the translators just decided to change it so that both lines refer to Miquella, but looks like what she was actually saying is that Radahn will be forced to keep his promise because nobody can resist Miquella.
So the sunflower's thorns do not only affect the ground and you cannot jump over them (makes sense, as they are 12 feet tall. I'm not sure of the timing required to dodgea) the initial attack. I can never see he's even about to do it and just get slammedb) dodging the actual rising of the thorns. They seem to go out in circles around it, are you supposed to run away and not be in the initial one so you can predict it properly? That's tough when I get staggered 100% of the time he does that attack and get caught in the center when the thorns pop.

romina is a joke, they didn't even try with that one,shit design, boring, generic as fuck and so fucking easy it's unreal
>>483391598>It seems unnatural because she says brother in one line and Miquella in the nextNo, that's just typical of Japanese. Nii-sama here clearly can refer only to Miquella and miquella alone.
>>483391691>rannisimps want their female tarnished impregnated on the moon by a doll
>>483391408I'm so tired of people who think that they're somehow superior to others because they recognized reused assets on sight. FromSoft is smart about reusing assets. They do it fucking everywhere, but they always give things a new coat of paint to make them feel new / a part of the game they're reused in.I don't care that omens use the Harald knight skeleton. I don't care that imps reuse the thrall skeleton. I don't care that they've been using the same fucking shove animation from the defiled ones in Demon's Souls for a decade. No one cares.
>>483389108You're supposed to finish it off with a specific weapon, that's why it lies there for the finishing blow when the bar is depleted and why they give you multiple chances to figure it out. If you just killed it three times with whatever that means you failed the quest.
>>483391598I dunno about that, it seems more like radahn was plan B after Mogh failed miserably

Probability of Impenetrable Thorns getting nerfed?Previsions for next balance patch date?I myself think they don't really care about Elden Ring anymore since the DLC is already done, so there's no reason for them to "waste" time on the game.

>>483391606Yeah either run away or dodge it by feelIMO the ranged thron attack is way worse since you can very easily get hit by all three doing like 2k raw damage on top of a bleed proc
>>483391578The Dragon's Dogma Online approach could work, a central hub with other players running around + an open world that's instanced for you & your party
>>483391697fai/arc has a deal with retardedly high spellbuff, and status weapons on top of that. Just because the faith stat isn't directly scaling on a weapon doesn't mean it's not serving the build well
>>483391408>enemy movesets shoved onto playable charactersI see no issue with this, better than being stuck with a generic moveset
I wish NEW GAME+ was actualy just playing the game again without changing anything, but bosses getting more dmg/health/defense means most weapons with split damage will become worthless in new game+, and the dmg is so high already, 50 vigor+bullgoat set+greatshield talisman+cooked prawn+golden vow= boss still taking 40% of my hp with each hit.

>>483391627>the change they made to accommodate fucking retards who mash through dialogue and accidentally pick an option makes this menu even slower>it also affects the quit out menu, so it's harder to quit out while you're falling off a cliff or something:|
>>483391539As much as I do kind of hate the argument, I paid for new things, not reused things. It's literally one of the biggest criticisms from older souls players when elden ring's first gameplay trailer was released - where we had seen every single combat animation barring 1 or 2 and could pinpoint it to the exact weapons. I don't mind if they reuse stuff like regular swings on something like a sword from a previous game, but repurposing every single animation from most weapons in a new franchise when you should be expecting something new and fresh and see the same shit you've seen for the past 10 years at that point, is a bit disheartening. I understand why they do it, I just wish we could get something new outside of the minimal few weapons that do have new animations. The combat is the point of the games, and when weapons and weapon arts are the same even down to the same frame data, it just ends up coming across as straight up lazy. At least change some keyframes in the animations or something.
>>483391607Problem is you have to be at level ~20 and that massively cucks your build options

>>483392048I can't bring myself to play like this, no matter what. All of my builds need to be RP-themed, and if they have access to something good because of that, so be it. But all the good stuff tends to be lame bullshit like>slap cragblade on a weapon it doesn't feel like it belongs on, broThe only exception I ever made was this proof of concept meme build that resulted from an argument about whether Marika's soreseal has a practical application. Saint has the right idea about invading, you should always have a character concept.
>>483392146That's completely normal in Japanese. It's normal in English too.>oh no he definitely doesn't mean John here lol it's DEFINITELY super unnatural there must be a second personMalenia's met Radahn a grand total of what, twice? You think she's going to call Radahn niisama?>>483392285>No it's literally "Father wept. John knew that the venture was doomed.">Father is not John, niisama is not Miquella.Except in the event, John IS your father, and Japanese easily uses names instead of pronouns in spoken contexts. I can't even remember the last time I called my brother "he".
>>483392315I think the reason they went with Radahn was the fact his fight in the base game is a gimmick boss instead of a standard duel.
>>483391792Uhm no you have to spend valuable dev time remaking the same animation 10 times or you're a hack
>>483392315They should've picked the less popular option (Godwyn) because it would've made more sense lore wise and it would serve as more of a spectacle to see this Demi-God who was the first to die to confront us at last.

Where's Rellana's co-op enabling statue thing?
>>483392460I wonder why Godwyn's less popular, could it be because he's not even in the base game

>>483391529Really? That's pretty soulful.
>>483391894based brother, marika’s a bitch
How are people not understanding the miquella timeline?Miquella wants Radahn to be his King Consort but to do so, he needs to kill him because he's not currently under his control. So he asks Malenia to kill him but she fails, though she does inflict scarlet rot on him. So Miquella bides his time by simultaneously mind controlling Mohg (which he needs because his blood powers will allow him to animate Radahn's corpse after he is dead) and cocooning up which allows him to transport to the Realm of Shadows where he can ascend to godhood.
>>483391740I liked her. Fun attacks and remembrances rewards are good

So is the ymir quest line just formed out of assets from the cut gloam eyed queen quest line?
>>483392460>less popular option (Godwyn)But this is what literally everyone and their mother was expecting. There are even memes about it.>>483392445This is my assumption as well. The Radahn you fight in the base game is a husk of his former self, a ravening beast with a fraction of the martial prowess he was once renowned for. FromSoft probably thought it would be an interesting idea for the two hardest bosses of the entire game to be... the two most renowned warriors in world: Malenia and (peak) Radahn.Not saying I agree with this decision, but I think that's their motivation.
>>483392637DAY OF THE ROPE ALL POTS MUST HANG
>70 faith
Do you think they should nerf the dlc? Why or why not. If yes in what areas?Imo I think only the bosses need changes, just Lion, Hog rider, Renalla, and especially Radagn need some nerfs to damage
>>483389165>>>/leftypol/
>>483392460>it would've made more sense lore wiseNo, it wouldn't. As contrived as bringing back Radahn was bringing back Godwyn would have been even more contrived and fanservicy, to say nothing of the more serious plot issues with the base game it creates that are much less of an issue with Radahn. A fight against Miquella alone would have been best.
>>483392439Nah, malenia met radahn more than twice from what we know the empyrean twins are the ones radahn interacted with the most outside of the carians demigod wise. But you're right, the language is clearly meant to be talking about miquella and people are coping.

>>483392005The issue with this argument is time and budgets aren't infitine. If fromsoft spent a bunch of it on remaking existing animations, frameworks etc the DLC would be significantly smaller. I'd much rather dev time be spent on making new shit than remaking the same swing animation dozens of times
>>483392639>literally make fun of retards>another retard: "based, ur right"Uhh?
>>483392686>>483392754nta but>godwyn is deadnigga so is Radahn lmaoOne of Miquella's goals was to deal with Godwyn one way or anotherReviving him for Prime Godwyn or having him fail utterly at doing so and creating some kind of abomination final boss that eats Miquella for its second stage would both make more thematic sense than randomly having Radahn

>Half the moveset are attacks that hit you before your roll animation is done even with crucible feather + windy tear
>>483392902>nigga so is Radahn lmaohe never got killed by destined death he can still come back
>>483392736The only things they should do is reduce Rellana's poise, reduce boss health pools a very modest amount, and fix Gaius' charge hitbox and Torrent damage. Other than that the bosses are completely fair and people need to unironically git gud.
>>483392902The difference is that godwyn underwent a very specific special soul death that warped reality and made a new race of people from it. Radahn doesn't undergo that kinda death. It should've been malenia as we don't kill her in base game. The dlc should be locked behind her.
I'm still getting folded by Radahn, at best I can make it to his sky jump attackIs it worth retooling my str build to include golden vow, flame buff etc? I'm concerned that I wont get enough time to cast them
I have never eaten a boiled crab.
>>483392992>he never got killed by destined deathincorrect, I killed all the demigods with Blackflame and finished them off with Black Knife L2
>>483392736Rellana should not be able to one-shot you with that double slash in the second phase Radahn and Miquella's epic tag team's tiny sky lasers that spawn after every single attack should do less damage and poise damage. They're insanely threatening for being able to turn any attack into a near one-shot true combo, but there's an insane amount of them and they're awfully random.
>>483392902godwyn is like, perma dead thoughregardless, he's not really a person anymore as much as he is a concepthe's very mysterious, creepy as fuck and I would be legitimately pissed if they extrapolated and ruined all of itwe do not need DLC on every single little fucking thing in the game
>>483392782>>483392960this is the maximum range for the healing btw
>>483392987>rannala literally has a roll catch attack built into her combos
>>483392941I don't disagree. I'm just saying with current lore they were meant to be closeish. Regardless "it should've been" isn't what we got.
>>483393018if you make it to the sky jump you've almost won alreadyjust keep going and finish that final bit
>>483393009>>483393059Yeah but it works even if Miquella fails to bring Godwyn back properly and create a horror monster, because it would be a tale of hubris and throwing away everything for nothing, exactly the sort of shit Miyazaki likes. Godwyn doesn't have to be back,the point is that Miquella's efforts being directed at Radahn is out of nowhere and kind of retarded.

I think godwyn would be a stupid choice too as it ruins the point of him as the prince of death. It would make many people angry and revive the let me solo her memes. But it should've been malenia the cut content with them had them as a duo boss. If they already wanted to rip off twin princes they should've used miquellas twin like they already planned to do. You don't even have to change much of the dialog which is already there some of it voice acted. I think the originally DID want to make it malenia and not godwyn but swapped to radahn because they thought locking the dlc behind her was a bad idea

>>483393474no, but mimic is also bad now because it doesn't pull aggro and the bosses still lock on to you.Only Dung Eater keeps aggro on every boss except Saint Saiya Radahn.
I'm very close to going into offline mode and toggling instakill in cheat engine for Gaius
Is the lore autist still here?>The Numen are said to be descendants of people from 異界 (Ikai), which can mean another world like the English localisation says, but can also mean the spirit world, underworld, or next worldThe entire thing about calling the Numen coming from another world a retcon is just a localization error lmao
I can't say I like fighting MessmerHis flame obscures his weapon so I literally can't see what he's doing wth it, I can't tell when his combo is over or when he's doing a windup.
ATTENTION ATTENTION NEW RADAHN X MIQUELLA ARThttps://files.catbox.moe/z0kq7e.jpgMORE PEOPLE ARE MAKING STUFF FOR THEM IM SO EXCITED
>>483393462doesn't matter which way you rollbut also several other bosses do this as well.
>>483392434kek
>>483393617
>>483393474No nothing comes even close to the mimic
>>483393170>Yeah but it works even if Miquella fails to bring Godwyn backhe already tried and failedin fact, it's possible that is the reason he started his ascent to godhoodand he needed a consort and it just so happened radahn shared in the same beliefs as him with the festival and all that
>>483392023some sets are ridiculously light and low poise for what they are (light plate)
>>483393592i beat him on my 2nd try by just spamming my weapon art at him
Bayle is making the camera spaz out so fucking badly that I can't tell if some of his attacks are unblockable or if the game is making my character face away from his attacks.

>>483393474Every single one of the ashes over the weps of the npcs are insane.
>>483393601Lorefag here, the jp and eng lore are written at the same time. The shadowlands is essentially the spirit world now, or a form of it, and marika is from where that now is before she split it off. Both definitions fit
>>483393450This worked ty
>>483393282Only a few bosses are bullshit.
>>483393293Jump away from it
>>483392439low IQ post
>>483393331>pick between shitty edgelord Katana or super special spirit that gets an upgraded into a better versionreally tough decision
>>483393601it's written obtusely because of the tenses but it's not a retcon
>>483393638I do wonder how marika would've interacted seeing her son obsess over radagon's. How would ranni react to the shota obsessed with her brother? How would rykard react? What about radagon?
>>483393729I have not been keeping up with the lore for the past 2 years, how consistent are the ENG-JPN translations and localizations. Its not as bad as Dark Souls 2 was or downplaying the localized Bloodborne item descriptions as much right?
>>483393592I just summoned my friend and we both laughed at his broken as shit hitboxes and keep yellingHOOOOG RIIDDDAOver an over, beat him 4th try. I pity the fool who tries that boss solo
>gaius enters phase 2>the exact same attack that did about 1/7 of your health bar now does 3/4 of it for no discernible reason
>>483392736Radahn should get better visibility in phase 2 and have less health
>Run away from Radahn so he can only use Lion's Claw or Psycho Crusher>Punish the attack>Repeatonly way I can beat phase 1
Which item descriptions have the lore regarding Marika's origins, her culture, and the Hornsent oppressing her people?
>>483393520Killing the boss before they have a chance do do anything just means you didn't learn the fight. Why even bother playing?
>>483385636If I have to kill Miquella then I'll just feminize Radagon to be the femboy instead.
>be me wake up 970 postsbake you maniacs
how good is it anons?
Just got my third arena kill by nailing them in the chest with the Messmer Spear throwing R2This thing is fucking cool
seriously how the fuck am I supposed to see what the fuck Messmer is doing
>>483393601They could be descended from the guys that arrived on the coffin boats, then settled as shamans/mikos
Starting to really like this shield. It probably doesn't do too well cause of that ass damage, unfortunately.
>>483393876Phase 1 isn’t even that bad, you have so many openings for attacks. He will occasionally do a stupid quick jab attack you can’t reasonably dodge sometimesPhase2 is just complete bullshit
>>483393925auto-include for every character that two-hands his weapon
>>483393925Basically 15% for free, no drawbacks or catchesReally good considering how far talismans go
>>483393895>learning fightsyou didn't beat the game
>>483393863How the fuck are people getting filtered by him? I beat him solo as a pure INT without a comet azur play (not like he can even stand still to use on him, especially after the free fp tear got nerfed)
>>483393894Tiny Erdtree incant and golden braid, plus I think the tooth whip and that ghost in bonny village. All that taken together
>>483393876that's unironiclaly how you beat souls games the smart waybait the AI by being at the right distance so it uses the shittiest attack it has
>>483393925It's apparently a 15% damage increase when two handing, so pretty fucking good.
>>483393910Canonically speaking this is how messmer and melina were conceived. Radagon got plapped so hard by godfrey he made him pregnant and when he swapped back to marika she was made to carry their gay love baby. The two siblings were cursed simply because homosexuality is unnatural and reality itself dislikes it.
>>483393970how are dualing shields on a scale of 1 to sacred chime (if you give me a minute to wake up ill find the ds2 video that shows it was rather busted)

so what's the exploit with lightning perfume bottle that lets you deal insane damage?
>>483393925good unless your build is based around your ash of war, then it does nothing
So why couldn't our tarnished lick rennala's feet? She wouldn't really react so why couldn't we? Would ranni instakill us for molesting her mom? What if we never meet ranni? Would she still kill us?
>>483394081Allows you to be hyper-aggressive with guard points in your attacks and lets you guard things very well with Scholar Shield spell, I'd say a 7. Regular boost is kinda ass at 70
>>483394127>He thinks bosses have recovery frames nowNo such thing anymore.
>>483394070That's kind of hot desu.
>>483394139Perfurmer charm + Scorpion Lightning Charm
>>483393925Does relanna's count for this? I assume no
Why does Ansbach talk like Miquella only has one eye? DOES he only have one eye or is it some shitty machine translation crap like the Hornsent saying he found one new cross while giving you a map with like ten on it?
>>483394139use rolling sparks AoW and aim it at the floorworks on all of them but the poison one
>>483394139ctrl+f "perfume"
>>483393963You could ask that about nearly every boss in the DLC.
>>483394040Tbf I gave up Solo early cause me and my bro were in VC and I didn’t care about the hog boss so we just summoned and fucked around, it was very funI probably could have done it solo, but this was funnier. I’m making up for it by doing Radahn without a mimic tear to regain honor points, which is a fucking chore made easier with based great katanas
>>483393925does it work with fists?
>>483394048>The flesh of shamans was said to merge harmoniously with othersSo does this confirm that Marika and Radagon were originally separate until Marika used secret Numen shaman magic to merge them?
>>483394139works on any direct damage perfume, flame/frenzy one likely better on higher levels and more buffs accessiblerollling sparks ash of war, free aim at the ground so damage is condensed

any farm location for grease ingredients yet?
>>483392126not in terms of story/context and presentation
BLEED PERFUME WHEN
>>483394260Perhaps? That could be a neat reference to that development.
>>483394286yeah it's called the grand merchant mod
>>483394272I forgot the other two
>>483393963Get your eyes checked?
Im replaying now and i was able to get +10 scadu before the rune even broke. Will it break when i take the elevator to shadow keep? It broke is some random ass spot for me the first time
im just remembering the clip was from a compilation so I doubt I can remember where its from, basically the guy shield onlys dark souls 2 colosseum and wins, easily (600+ damage per hit, WITH A SHIELD, in pvp)
How much stronger are DLC greases compared to base ones?
>>483394242I mean thats fine, only now am I seeing more and more people all over the internet complain about HOOOOOOG RIDAAAAAA and he was so unimpressive and only took a handful of tries. Even my didn't expect weak foe message was down voted hard in-game lmao
>>483391598Autistic people really have trouble when people don't speak in exactly the same way they do and see shit that isn't there, huh.
>>483394127Shields are a liability against any boss that turns your character around while locked on (so nearly all of them in the DLC).
damn messmer was the furtive pygmy all along
>>483394286the lillies grow in the south in cerulean coast, near the entrance to that one hole in the ground
>>483394260>>483394307What if the tarnished tried to plap a newly reformed marika and instead of just normal sex they accidentally merge and we replace the now dead radagon.
>>483394272nta but I just use the perfume tali + Alexander shard. really don't need more, especially not with the right elemental tear. the buff from the scorpions aren't huge in comparison to other shit.
>>483394318One is alexander obviouslyOther than that, I think it's perfumers (also obvious)
>>483394286>me hoping to buy st trina arrows or get a sleep buff spell>MORE lilies to farmgod fucking damn it
>>483394370I think it depends HEAVILY on your build like many of the bosses in the gamePeople complained about messmer and hog rider but I first tried them as a pure faith build spamming the upgraded lightning javelin and burn o flamemeanwhile I got gigafiltered by the one boss nobody is complaining about (romina) and spent an entire day on putrescent knight
>>483394370I stumbled onto him with barely any scadutree shits so the charge would 1 shot me if i missed making the shitty hitbox on it all the more annoying
Upon seeing the jar warriors unjarredI feel no regrets for slaughtering alexander mercilessly every playthrough.
>>483394396>furtive pygmy
so what even is mesmer's lore/background?
Okay seriously. Why do I barely see anyone using the new perfume weapons? I've been using the lightning one and it seems OP as hell.Huge range, decently fast, good damage, and has two of the most busted skills in the game.
The depths of your foolishness!
How does this new lore fit marika being a numen? The base game uses "of the same stock" when referring to marika and the numen connection
>>483391740I think it’s cool Elden ring got a Quelag equivalent, can’t complain I like that kind of designPlus explosive butterflies is cool

>>483394545MAY CHAOS TAKE THE WORLD
>>483394521Why? They are literally criminals. It is an honour for them to donate their flesh and transform into a warrior
>>483394534Outside of rolling sparks its nothing to write home about. A sword has just as much range and its easier to use on torrent.
>>483394597A hornsent typed this
>>483393617THE PROMISED CONSORT
>>483394443lightning is the broken one. if you think rolling sparks is good on the other ones, you're right but its not broken. lightning is broken.all the talisman buffs are multiplicative so having 4 talismans that all buff your perfume gives you giga damage. Along with Golden vow you also can be buffed by rakshasa armor to DELETE bosses to the point where you kill all bosses on phase 1. There is nothing that deals more damage in the same time frame in the game right now.
>>483394529He was a goodboy following mommy's orders to go annihilate the horned jews but then when she went crazy he was forgotten about in the sneedlands

>>483394529>>483394070Cursed by reality due to being conceived by gay sex. Has mommy issues for his surrogate mother. That pontiff sullyvan lady wants to marry him. The "original sin" related to marika and her family was this very gay sex between godfrey and radagon that produced messmer and melina. It's immoral and wrong and they tried to hide it. It's also why radagon became such a zealot for the golden order.
>>483391894In the hornsent's religion turning people into jars is making them saints so there was no guilt or feeling they were doing anything bad there, from their point of view they were doing good deeds by helping these sinners become saints.

>>483394534Oooooh Guts-chan, you are the only one for me
>>483394575I dont believe what ymer said. Hes a tranny
>>483394551it doesn't, saying that shamans = numen is coping
>>483394573I may just be a PvP autismo but I learned to do that stupid Dark Souls 3 Order Acquisition organize inventory shit and memorized all my weapon slots to hard swap so I can maximize my equipment instead when I was hardcore dueling and gank squad hunting.
>invade in cave>spawn directly right next to the host and his phantom>they just walk up to me and trap me in the corner i spawn in on and spam r1 on me until i dieits sooo hard to program a distance check for the spawn location

>>483394752Shamans were a society, numen were a race
>>483394534the thread has a bunch of people talking about how broken they are. Just wait for inevitable youtube onslaught that will nerf it to hell. the only thing saving it is that most people only tried the poison one which sucks real bad and most people haven't gotten its ash of war
>sorceries that require 20+ FTH>incantations that require 20+ INTSTOP I HATE THIS SHIT
>>483394768i would probably do that too but i cant be fucked to organize my inventory and i dont care that much about winning as much as roleplaying some anime villain shiti mostly only play pvp when i have a cheat code to win 1v3 invasions with (swift slash rn)dueling has been for the birds since ds3
>>483394787>invade in Limgrave>spawn under the bridge while host is on it>red finger respawn>respawn at correct height but farther awayThey botched invasions so hard
>>483394740I believe him because my wife hyetta said the same thing and she's cute.
>>483394551"Shaman" is an inconsistent translation of 巫女 which is translated as "maiden" elsewhere in Elden Ring such as in finger maiden and dictates that they are all female The Black Knives are all female and are all numen, they're probably the surviving shamans from Marika's village
>>483394858Why?
>>483394842>poison one which sucks real badWhy does the weapon art poison you?Has anyone tried it in an offhand for a bit of passive damage? That seems to be its only use
Are there any good Strength or Quality Straight Swords?
>>483394929could shaman just be the male/gender neutral form?
>>483394263>>483394231>>483394230only doing like 3600 damage, that's very low and I can get more from other broken builds, is that normal?
>>483394521Alexander and his jars are ones made from warrior corpses, not to be used as sacrifices
>>483394534This game has a huge influx of redditors who use troonveil or other shitty try hard tranny weapons. If they see something new or unusual, they become afraid and think its useless automatically.
how the fuck do I get to the northeastern part of the mapI've found some door-looking things in scaduview but I don't have the right
which weapons will heal me on damage or kill? I need one like blasphemous, im not gonna use it as a main weapon, just something to go around while exploring so i can heal myself killing trash
>>483394941Broadsword.
>>483394941Regular old longsword is great for STR and goes with any fashion
>>483394983Look at last thread with the no hit messmer. He hit for 15k in an instant. You have to aim at the feet so the entire spray is in a single location
>>483394929It is kind of crazy for so many people to try to glean information from exact word usage knowing that the entire game is a translation.
>>483389970Tiche still nabs aggro pretty well though so is it just a gold summon thing.
Asked before dlc I'll ask now. Would anyone like a blonde femboy bf to play elden ring with? I'm not too mentally ill so don't worry
>>483395006Shadow Keep Church District, but you still don't have the right and gesture required ahead after
>>483394929>>483394980Maybe Shaman was the name of their people, not race.Like saying someone is American.
>>483394980In Japanese 巫女 contains 女 which literally means "woman". Shaman is a shit translation.
>>483395014just use Taker's Cameo
>>483394858One day you metatrannies will realize that your RL125 is fanfic and that the developers don't care about your autism
>>483394987yeah but they are still abominations inside a jar, and therefore, they should die.
This thing needs more range, it's not even "medium" is "melee+"Give it throwing dagger range or close ffs
>>483394983you can pump it upcheck the no-hit run on messmer earlier in the thread. 3 L2 was all that was needed
So was the modifying dolls stuff a fake spoiler made up to bait Rannifags or have I just not found the item?
>>483392627Bump
>>483395070Remember when ENB was literally the only lore guy who looked at the original Japanese text? I miss that guy.
>>483395006O mother emote in front of the statue by the shadow keep back door.O mother is found in bonny village
>No crucible hippo spell like the one Devonia uses>No dragon communion-inspired base serpent attack spell based on Messmer's phase 2>No bouncy glintstone shard spells like the ones mage dudes in Godwyn's catacombs are using>No finger pink laser spell like the one Metyr and stone ball snakes in the coffin area use>No 70+ int quasar spell like the one we see Metyr use in phase 2>No sleep spell on any kindMan, so many missed opportunities, especially for INT builds
>>483394980>>483395085Not him but 巫女 is "miko", and neither shaman nor maiden. It most directly translates to witch-woman, theurge-woman, or diviner-woman. It's customarily translated as shamanness if needed.This, uh, also implies the entire village was female, and that everyone getting jarred was a woman. You cannot be a 巫女 and male at the same time.
>>483395014great starsnot really required anyway with the new mana regen tali
>>483394929巫女 isn't even in that item description, they're referred to as 稀人...
Running through the dlc bosses a second time on NG+. God the running to midra, metyr, and messmer is fucking aids.
>>483395143His ex wife killed his unborn kid and cucked him after the fact. Man hasn't been the same
>>483395106>>483395053does it do more damage on bigger targets? gonna try it on malenia coop
>>483395165It's really annoying how much more shit pure faith, split faith, and dex builds compared to the rest.
stopped around 1.07 anything good in the dlc with similar stat build? maybe I'd just do a backhand blade if no recommendation.
>>483395105does arrows reach work with throwing knives?since it does for spells.
>>483395186isn't it similar to the village in the area around the capital? it has that hill with the skinny godsworn boss fight. all the mobs in that village were women too i believe. the ones dancing with flowers in their hair? are they related at all?
>>483395014There's no offhand that can heal you on hit, but there's a serpent curved sword that heals you on kill.I'm using this and taker's cameo when exploring, works really well.Also: https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Equipment+with+Special+Effects

>>483395165>no sleep spellsleep is really not hard to afflict with the new sword and pots
>>483395070>>483395143I'd also like to point out that >>483395204 is correct. Even the people using jp text are often wrong as they're usually westerners with google translate
i'm a pve shitter who can't pvp to save my life and i have deleted every single invader by spamming swift slash. i'm not sure what to think about this ash
>>483395223>>483395143Oh and then this happened while he was working on official translations for bloodborne material for bamco. Imagine going through that while having to look at dead ayylmao baby shit all day.
>>483395239Yeah its basicall a ball lighting that damages as it travels through, but if you are right on them and blast it at their feet it doesnt matter how big they are because all of the dust is on top of them.Just doing it normally while locked on wont do a lot of damage, and is probably why they thought it was balanced
just beat the book bitch annoying as fuck
>There's no map for the underground areaWhat the hell? Did they cut so much content from this DLC that they even cut a map?
>Text says "Sword" singular>image shows a single blade>nowhere does it say it's actually a paired weapon kinoWhy is FromSoft like this?
>>483395104They do eventually and provide a vallueable service to ecology of Lands Between. This does make me wonder how the jars can function, since all their innards are dead
Thoughts on the new great katanas? I think it’s interesting they gave DEX users a more powerful but slower option, also the dragon katana is awesome
>>483395223Jesus Christ.
>>483395381How the FUCK did you get this? I've been grinding that fucker for a while now, and no luck.
>>483395381every enemy that I've seen uses it with both hands though
>>483395449it doesn't drop randomly it's from one specific horned warrior
>>483395381Equip it and tell me what you see, anon.
>>483394768> I learned to do that stupid Dark Souls 3 Order Acquisition organize inventory shit and memorized all my weapon slots to hard swap so I can maximize my equipment insteadthis is exactly why I don't engage in pvp. You psychos are way too autistic about it
>>483395476well damn, which one?
>>483395423i love it. ive been using it the entire game minus radahn. dont know about pvp though since im not a troon.
>>483395165Don't forget the weird tongue thing the black knight miniboss uses.
Should I pay my jap friend to translate a bunch of lore stuff again? Should i just make a shitty vid with us on discord and he explains the actual texts in Japanese for everyone or something?
I found an ancient "jaks pointing"
>>483395376it's not very big
>>483395543In the final dungeon, there's one horned warrior near the end that uses storms.
Somehow the "shamans were all women" thing made me less sympathetic to marika. Am I a misogynist?
>>483385283Pls help, I can wait by the hippo if that's convenient.
>>483395659Yes, and that's a good thing!
>>483395513I haven't touched Elden Ring, let alone PvP, for a year and half or however long its been. I didn't even participate in the Colosseum DLC/Patch because I put in an unhealthy amount of PvP time prior to it even getting announced. Kind of why I'm not too eager to want to make an invasion character.
>>483395423I liked them. Surprised that on my quality build this thing - clearly a dex weapon, has better damage than a Quality Great Katana with a B/B scaling, though
man i wish all weapons had cancels like the beast claws have
Like 5 tries into Commander Gaius and I'm still waiting for my turn to attack.People were saying you can mount in this fight, but I don't see how that would be even remotely helpful.
>>483395381>>483395449>>483395476It dropped randomly on my way up to Dancing Lion, wasn't even farming for it
>>483395383It's kind of surprising that Marika authorized the use of living jars in the lands between considering they literally are a walking reminder of the terrors inflicted upon her own people
>>483395782silence slut
>>483395659just homosexual
>>483395687Don't get me wrong, I still support hornsent genocide. I just don't feel as bad for marika. Idk. I just can't feel sorry for all female groups or all male groups being wiped out. When I first imagined it I imagined men women and children all being put in. Husbands and wives shoved in with their kids. Now I just don't really care.
>>483394263>aim at the groundfuck me. I thought it was busted even without this. I was already doing more damage than any other aow I've tired with just my dumb locking on. holy fuck this isn't even overpowered anymore this is just cheating. I haven't finished melenia on this run and just use her to test build effectiveness and I accidentally fucking killed her
>>483395775I wish backhand swords had curved sword feign cancel backflip. makes no sense that they don't.
>>483395824Thats a really bizarre line to draw.Who hurt you?
>>483395659How did you jump to that conclusion?And how did you not think that about the Black Knifes?
>>483387217she only succeeded because of the tarnished, though.
Is the island off the Cerulean Coast accessible from there, or is there some bullshit like a teleporter on the other side of the map to it?
>>483395884there's a cave near it.
Does the existing boss resurrection mod work for the DLC? I can't try it myself right now.
>>483395780It's not helpful, just mimic and bleed him but wait till you get to some of the other bosses who also never stop attacking lol.
>>483395926it barely even worked before the dlc
>>483387217sure, if by "succeeded" you meant "ruined the entire world"
Is it wrong for me to only want to plow Marika to make Demigod children but could give a shit about what happens to her? Asking for my schizo self.
>>483395816The only villages I care for are communal ones made up of nuclear families all working and living together. A nuclear family includes a father and mother. If they were all women I just don't care much for them anymore. I'd feel the same if they were all men. I just don't care about unisex colonies or their wellbeing.
>>483395543>>483395613Literally the last dude you kill before radahn. Its so gay, and the weapon art is so cool.
fuck these things
>>483395918I was hoping that was the case. Thanks.
>>483395340how do you charge it? holding L2 doesn't seem to take longer than just tapping L2
>>483395105>This thing needs more range, it's not even "medium" is "melee+"TrueThe throwing dagger's range is comparable to a long spear. The throwing hammer on the other hand is awesome
>>483395926>does an existing mod work in the dlcno they ALL need updating like B&S now crystal hunt is out. computers are not magic.
>>483393447I believe this because it almost looks like a hospital with all the beds. Why would they be on beds otherwise?
>>483395884There is a hole in the ground by the ugly fucked up tree you see the ghost niggers praying at
>>483395973wait, thats how you damage them?How are you supposed to figure that out?
>>483395973Does this work against the armored ones?
>>483395863>>483394929Here and >>483395186 in reference to the shaman specifically. In jp they're all women. >>483395861No one I've had a perfectly normal upbringing and I have my own home; a job, and a kid on the way with my wife. I just don't care for unisex colonies.
>>483396050Yes bro that is definitely the intended way of dealing with those
>>483395973>faster stagger>doesn't even need ripostethey're THAT busted? christ. took me like ten minutes without skibidi upgrades, and two ripostes (37k damage, misericorde)
>>483396065noyou still have to do some convoluted shit to kill themhonestly one of the worst mechanics in the dlc
>>483395346>took a screenshot of phase 1 fading to blacklmao>>483395423i love the base one, i haven't tried the others although i want to very badly. CGS / GS are my favorite weapons, so naturally i like these too.
>>483396104No i meant the attacking their legs. Not the perfume bullshit.
>>483396098>I just don't care for unisex colonies.Someone hurt you
>>483392909she killed our people brother
>>483396050>>483396065>>483396118>>483395973Best method to kill them is to open up cheat engine and activate one hit kill. No time to waste on a shit endurance fight.
>>483395784She seemingly got her shit together, until Ranni's Ridiculous Regicide triggered her PTSD
>>483396143No the intended way is to throw the giant pots into their basket.
>>483396000You dont charge it. Just aim at the feet.You know how when you shoot it regularly it makes a line of dust. When you are right on the boss and shoot their feet the entire line of dust is in a single spot and all explodes at once.
>>483396098nigga I mean how did you jump to being a misogynist just because of the woman shit and how did you not have those feelings prior about the Black Knifes.
>>483396157You deserved it, hornfag.If God wanted you people to live he wouldnt have made Marika.Next time try not being a freak of nature.
>>483396217I seeI can do 6300 damage now, maybe it requires FTH and DEX maxed out and the boss having low lightning resistance to maximize damage?
>>483394929People get way too hung up on the names of things forgetting that translations are weird even in ER:I just assumed the shamans were numen. Either the shaman village was a village of shaman numen (profession and race), or the numen race descended from the shaman race. Or the numen was the name they took when they founded the eternal cities.Doesn't really matter, it's obviously the same damn thing. Marika's clearly stated to be related to the numen, and the shaman village is clearly her birth village. So shaman = numen. There isn't much else to it.
how do I cheese the Furnace Golem at Cerulean Coast? I'm on NG7 so it would take like 8 hefty fie pots to kill it and I'm pretty sure I'd run out of materials before successfully killing it that way. any incantations that can reliable hit its face? lighting spear is pretty meh when it comes to that
What’s the broken ash of war for backhand blades? Pve ofc
>>483396153No one did. That's the thing. I think it's because I just don't care about the idea of a group of adults being brutalized as much as I do a group of men women and children. It feels like it was less a proper village and closer to a coven of witches.
>>483396212Only for the 2 armored ones. You cant even craft enough to kill 1 until you killed others because it requires their face to craft the pots
What the fuck are the lamprey enemies and why are they associated with the fingers? Are they some weird subspecies of finger or a creation of them, some other aliens that tagged along when the Greater Will sent its minions to the Earth, or something else?
>>483396050Smack them in the legs enough times and they'll drop to the floor where you can stab them for massive damage.
>>483396212Do you get anything good for killing them? Otherwise lol lmao no way fag
WHERE CAN I QUICKLY FARM ONE OF THE HORNSENT WARRIORS WIELDING THE CURVED GREATSWORD, PLEASECAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL
>>483383207There is something to be said about all hornsent here.
>>483396315you don't need 7 you need enough to stagger and he instadies even if he still has over half hp left
>>483395481Moveset : https://files.catbox.moe/my0s9o.webmAoW : https://files.catbox.moe/z5hktn.webmThe AoW has a lot of range and it look like it can be manually aimed without lock on by pointing the cameraHonestly looks 10/10 overall. Don't know if Weapon Art scales with Faith like it should or it's some bullshit AR thing like with Cleanrot Spear
>>483396178>just cheatgit gud scrub
>>483396256I never cared for the black knives either. That's the thing. The difference is they attack me and they objectively did something wrong. Marika's people were hadn't done anything to deserve their treatment so my lack of care worried me until I realized why.
ok I checked"Shaman" is written 巫子, not 巫女This, uh, isn't a normally common way to write it, although there's nothing wrong with it, it's pronounced the same way and this substitution is valid enough. You...COULD read this as a gender-neutral form of shaman. In a vacuum I'd still assume it's a nonstandard spelling of 巫女 or even 神巫, both of which are normally female by definition.>>483395963>NUCLEAR familyFool is what you are, nuclear families are the fucking devil that leads the atomization of society, the breakdown of horizontal social ties and safety nets, and lower birth rates as a result of thatThe "nuclear family" is literally the result of urban planning propaganda and trying to get as many people into the workforce as possible while lowering their collective bargaining power as much as possible. The moment the unit of society breaks from the extended clan-style family into the nuclear atomized family unit birthrates start dropping like a rock and suicide rates soar.You know not what you want.>>483396327>It feels like it was less a proper village and closer to a coven of witches.It's probably both. Mikos are by their nature god-callers, sacred creatures. The village would've been closer to a convent than anything else (although historical mikos weren't really isolated this way).
>>483396337No it doesn't, regular big fire pots are very cheap to make. Mushroom + butterfly
>>483396375First dungeon, the tower thingy with divine beastGrace called "private prayer room" or something, walk up the stairs and he's there
>>483396375Do they even drop them? I've been farming this stupid fucking hornnigger in Midra's Manse for a while, but only getting armour pieces.I've long ran out of chicken feet, too.
>>483387783light roll backwards can get you through all of it
>>483395806Aaaw. Is this a rare drop? Where you farming hours for it with no luck?
I wholly think miyazaki wanted us to impregnate both marika and ranni as the ending to the game but it was cut before they made their pregnant models.
>>483396418looks like flowing + another curved, can you r2 cancel?
>>483384991Yeah, I interpreted it as the same device they used in Bloodborne where Oedon exists as a formless higher being who indirectly influences the game's setting prior to the point where the game starts
>>483395701I wish it was non-somber weapon. In fact I wish more comber weapons would instead be normal weapons + separate ashes.
>>483396373I believe a couple of them drop items. I don't know though, because I only killed one. It's not fucking worth it, though.
>>483396178>muh cheat enginekys
>>483396418>fallingstar beast jaw L2, but on a paired curved swordGrand, just grand.>>483396469THAT'S NOT ACTUALLY A CURVED GREATSWORD, IT'S THE PAIRED CURVED SWORDS AS SEEN IN >>483396418, I KNOW BECAUSE THAT'S THE ONE I FARMED FOR HIS ARMOR, THINKING THAT HIS WEAPON WAS A CURVED GREATSWORD>>483396508THEY DO. THANK YOU, THIS IS A GOOD SPOT.

>>483396529raping this brat
>>483396363I have the impression that you have to stagger them once on each leg for them to drop. Based on my limited testing
Where is the summoning pool for Rellana?
Important question, can you throw hefty fire pots into the heads of downed furnace golems? Obviously you can do it to the ones that you're intended to do this to, but it'd be nice to be able to 1-cycle the normal ones by doing this while they're downed.
>>483396373They're the new Erdtree avatars. You want the new physik buffs? Get chopping.
how do pvp invasion streamers avoid getting into the "host has started fighting le boss" loop
>>483396460>It's probably both. Mikos are by their nature god-callers, sacred creatures. The village would've been closer to a convent than anything else (although historical mikos weren't really isolated this way).Couldn't it be that the shamans were a part of the village and the rest were just normal ass men and women?
The divine gate not being a bloody fleshy hellhole like in the cinematic and the fact you can't even climb it is such a kick in the balls for an otherwise dogshit end boss. Metyr was far more impactful to me.
>>483396713>see streamer name>become part of contenthmmm such a mystery indeed
>>483396713They don't
>>483396015I'm keeping an eye out for that. Been taking my sweet time exploring. Don't wanna miss anything important. Been playing for 3 days and I'm barely done with First zone plus Cerulean Coast, minus Jagged Peak
You're supposed to throw pot bombs into the furnace golems heads? I've been hitting their feet until they fall over this whole time.
>>483396460They hated him because he spoke the truth.
>>483396429>>483396587>"Yes Miyazaki-sama, please shit in my mouth!"Retarded shiteaters lmfao. Enjoy your bed of chaos 2.0, I'll stick to the real game.
>>483396663>>483396660The nuclear family did not become normal in the US until the mid-late 1800sNote that birthrates dropped drastically around this time
>>483396706no you need to play it the way team b miyazaki intended, stagger crit most, pots for the exceptions
>>483396460Yeah reading this makes it seem like it's less of a village of innocents and more of a faction marika was part of. Now I don't care about them either. Wow.
>>483396541The true ending was a pov scene of Marika teaching doll ranni how to give proper head.
>>483396810politics in an elden ring general is shit regardless of your position
I can't believe some of you niggers were lauding Bayle as one of the best dragon fights in the series. This shit is genuinely fucking awful.
>>483396713They do it by cutting those out of the youtube videos with the magic of editing.
>>483396337I haven't crafted a single heafty cracked pot (didn't know you can), and I found 4 of them in the world.
Alright, I've become a real fan of the shields now. This guy gave me plenty of grief with my Great Katana, here it went smoothly on my second try.
>>483396808It's not possible for all of them but the ones you can find a suitable throwing-location for it does like 20k damage per throw>>483396863>it's ok to genocide a "faction" even when they still didn't do anything wrongIs there even a little bit of evidence that the shamans ever did something to deserve potting
>>483396890Imagine having no taste
>>483396890It's not as good as Midir but Igon makes it amazing
>>483396890I fucking hate fighting dragons in this game, but at lest this one is mostly laying on the ground so you can hit him reliably
>>483396837Okay, rolling sparks it is
>>483396890They did the same thing with that lazy obese cunt in the base game, it's tradition at this point. Though considering the state of dragon fights Bayle is at least a strong contender for #2
>>483396885>says the guy who suddenly started ranting about only supporting le nuclear family!! and hating le wimmensm8 he didn't start it you did

its kinda fucked to just pop a skibidi fragment on the jumping puzzle to euponia, otherwise it was a fun segment besides the scorpion jumpscare and the final window jump
>>483396931Nta but its okay to genocide them then as they're just a religious group. I'm fine with that. I don't really care. >>483396998That wasn't him that was me who brought it up.
>>483396930You can reliably back stab them after a few of their moves. Gratz on the second try without knowledge though.
>>483396890He's great, stay filtered for having an opinion that differs from my own, objectively correct one.
>>483396885>pointing out the depopulation agenda is politicsenjoy the end of civilization I guess. dumbasses
>>483396660>>483396663What he means is that the concept of the "nuclear family" as it's understood in Anglo countries, parents and children, is a fucking meme. Communities of extended families and clans are a far more important and proper way to organize small scale society and human interaction and was in fact the norm until industrialization and modernization took over.
>>483397178have you seen our race? we deserve it

now that we have great katanas, can they either patch nagakiba out of the game or just make it one of them. it just shouldn't exist. it's like if they made a greatsword but gave it the straight sword moveset lol
So since it's just a faction marika was part of is that even bad? People genocide eachother over their beliefs all the time hell even marika did it to the fire giants for their religion. It's really not something that makes marika some victim. Just another evil bitch perpetuating a cycle of violence she once found herself the victim of. Honestly messmer is right about his mom and the hornsent. Makes sense that the most attractive male demigod face wise is the smartest.
>>483396756That is also possibleMy first impression for 巫女の村 is "the village of miko" as in the village filled with nothing but shamans, but on the other hand it could also mean "the village of THE miko" as in there was one, singular, and this is the village of that specific mikoObviously that's not possible since we have a lot of them getting cut up, but it could also just be "the village where all of the miko hang out (alongside everyone else)". It's not explicit. I would still guess it's their exclusive residence but there's no particular reason it has to be.>>483397147I wouldn't say they're a religious group, miko doesn't imply a religion at all, certainly not an aggressive or exclusive one. Shamanistic faiths actually have a really hard time being exclusive about their worship. They're more like a social class with specialized knowledge and probably specialized tools. Think of them more like "STEM majors" than "christians".
Blackknife Tiche isn't able to handle Messmer's ass. Too frail + doesn't pull aggro enough. Did the DLC actually add an objectively superior spirit ash to compliment these annoying faggot bosses? I've nearly killed Messmer a few times but regardless of grinding my head against the wall like I do with everything in this game the spirit ash really isn't up to par even with those reverned ash shits.
>>483396998I haven't engaged in that discussion; I've posted:>>483394231>>483394443>>483395106>>483395198>>483395296>>483395476

How do I advance Igon questline tho? i killed Ancient Dragon man (both the invasion and the real one), and killed the first Jagged Peak Drake at the foot of the Jagged Peak but the guy is still writhing ob the groubd

>>483397293>s like if they made a greatsword but gave it the straight sword moveset lolDid you miss the light greatswords?
>>483397262No, look at what he posted >>483395963 he's a retard but he means communal clans made up of mothers and fathers and children living together, staying monogamous to their partners, and working together towards a common goal of survival while caring for their elderly. I know it's what he's talking about because zoomer Fuentes worshipers always bring this up in the exact way and misunderstand exactly what seperates a nuclear family from what I mentioned
>>483397409You have to kill the other drake that's fighting another one
Is Messmers assault bugged? Sometimes it just goes strait through other people in invasions.
>>483397459yes and those are not as long nor do they have the same moveset so i guess youre retarded and shouldnt reply to me anymore

>>483397515Moby Dick isn't a song you fucking disingenuous faggot and no one on reddit has the patience or brain capacity to ever read it.
>>483397468Then I (the dude translating) misunderstood him, but those aren't communities made of nuclear families but communities made of partnered pairs who work for each other's benefitMost of these clans would have multiple generations and a bunch of cousins living together or in extremely close proximity
>>483397468Issue is still using the term I suppose.
>>483397434I hope they all kill eachother over there. The sooner it happens the happier I'll be. >>483397514I already know. I just think it's funny that I went from feeling bad about marika to going back to think she's a sometimes justified bitch >>483397526I think they likely instigated it in some way and even if not they should be with their own kind having kids instead of doing whatever the fuck they're doing. The purpose of life is propagation not religious shit.

Radahn's weak to piercing damage and, ironically, holy damage.
>>483397689I want to breed her
>>483397405Are they available pre Messmer kill? I feel like I've explored most of the available map outside going a bit thorough. I haven't really been using the wiki for anything but npc questline guidance.>>483397506Fumbled my chance at that unfortunately.
>>483395476No that’s the horned warrior’s GREAT sword. The others will drop from the standard horned warriors but the great variant is exclusive to one warrior in Enir
>>483397642>>483397706>gulp gulpthanks for the fecal matter miyazaki mmm so good
>>483397515Bruh dis nigga infected with reddit rot
remember back in 10 years ago when they were making these games, theyd always spawn the invader between the host and the boss door, so that a pvp would be more or less guaranteed. but then in elden ring i guess it was too difficult to program so they just didnt do it so now 80% of invasions are actually just loading screens and another 15% are ganksquads
>>483397763Yeah you have to find all the finger ruins which requires killing Gaius but that's it
>>483397768>EnirIs that the tower's name? I haven't reached it yet. There's another horned warrior wielding it in Belurat, about halfway through. Does he not drop it?
>>483397772>literally laugh in your face>"uhh ur stoopid!"Thanks, I accept your surrender :)
>>483397668Yeah, it's ironically a problem in communication between you two. And you're right they did, I do think this is probably how marika's people were. A group where an all female coven of mystics lived amongst their relatives. The main thing is there are male corpses there we just predominantly see females. So they likely took everyone related to the shamans not just the shamans
i cahgne dmy buidl but it stil isnt wokring i wonder if there s a better SS that I can use for fighting radan
>>483397807Kinda hard to do that when 80% of bosses have a grace outside the fogwall.
>>483396660he's right tho. Nuclear families are to weak of a group to thrive.>one household of 2 parents, 2-3 kids. Usually one and half income earners>this each requires a house, which implies mortgage, insulation and fragmentation of clans and extended family to rely uponIt's basically you, your wife, your kids and the State. It is stacked against you.As opposed to:>Big Families or Clans>You all live on a big familial plot of land, either in one big house or several smaller homes within the plot>strong familial bonds, direct access to several trades, professions, a built in community with the strongest ties and loyalty towards itself>less reliance on the State, more security and insulation from external factorsThe State tried to destroy this because it was too powerful, they want you weak and isolated and reliant and fearful of (((them))).I know this because this is me. I live on a big familial plot. 3 houses, one family each. On top of that most of my extended family of 30+ people, excluding children, lives close by. Guess how many trades and professionals I have access to without fear of getting jewed?Your family is your strongest and most important community, it comes before the State and it's the only thing that can help you against it. Never forget that.

>>483396542I don't know any tech sry
>>483397309Her secret incantation implies she was at first filled with kindness and just wanted to save her village, like her main goal was not even revenge, just the earnest desire to save her people. But she was too late in becoming a God and they were already dead/turned into pots, so she left her kindness behind and went full scorched earth on the Hornsents. And hell, they way the Hornsents talk, they don't regret a thing, they are just butthurt that Marika fucked them up, they still feel like its their right to sacrifice other people, so yeah, Marika is justified this time.
What's the trigger for Miquella breaking his rune?

How the fuck do I avoid Putrid Knight's dumbass roomwide fire attack?
>>483398043for me it happened right after crossing the bridge from Bonny Village
>>483398043It happens automatically when you approach the shadow keep.
>>483396925You need the visage to craft the heft FURNACE pot. Other ones dont work
>>483398043Walking up to the Shadow Keep. Despite what people tell you, it doesn't break any quests, it just breaks the mind control spell on NPCs which causes their quests to actually begin. Entering Messmer's boss arena is the first thing that progresses quests, I think.>>483398120Jump. He's just Manus, but you jump instead of using the silver pendant.
>>483397893The big thing is when you have kids>you and your wife have a kid>even assuming assuming your wife doesn't work because you can earn enough for both (not guaranteed), your wife can never do any chores that make her leave the house until the baby is weaned and if your wife gets sick you are fucked unless you can take time off>if you lived with your extended family you could just fob them off to your grandpa for 20 minutes while your wife gets groceries or for a few days while your wife stops being sick>if both of you work then the kid is going to spend more time with the nanny than with their parents
>>483398052>You really thought you were cookinggo back to where you came from, zoomer mongoloid.
>>483398120Jump over it.
>>483397890yes so just dont put me into those sessions where the host is right at the fog doorid rather wait 10 minutes for a good invasion than 5 seconds for an immediate "host has started boss" and back to loading screen
>>483398075Is it too late then?
someone bake
>>483398008Yeah he's a total retard for believing it's a reference to the fucking Mastodon song but that doesn't make the camera during Bayle's fight any less of a cancerfire to deal with.
>>483398307Let it die
>skibidi level 7>fight Rellana as poison build>first tryEndure rocks!
>>483398181>He doesn't change his language with timesWhat are you, some nostalgic boomer who still says stupid shit like pwn?
CURSE YOU BAYLE
>>483398041>so she left her kindness behindNo, that's not what it saysThe incantation is "the kindness of gold without Order". She showed her hometown, and likely her hometown alone, the kindness of the Marika who once lived there without it being covered by the Golden Order that everyone else knew her by.
is Partisan good
>>483397994holy shit, you weren't lying about that lighting.I feels like Ibis spamming shit at me.
>>483398350you didn't do the thing

>>483398172>for 20 minutesyou truly don't get it. My aunts, uncles and grandmother helped raise me. This is what it means to have a family to rely upon.America has created a transactional society where everyone is constantly on their personal grind without time or will for anyone else. This isn't how it is in most other places.
>>483398170Does it need to be the furnace pot you throw at their asses? I though a regular hefty fire pot or hefty volcano pot did the trick.
>>483397989Then why are they only women? Where's the men?
so this is the full power of skibidi blessing and perfumes...
>>483396508>>483396595that is indeed a curved greatsword. There are others who are seen wielding the paired curved sword version.
>>483398451I'm just giving an example for the suburban/urban Americans in the room friend, I was also raised by like 8 people>This isn't how it is in most other places.well it's getting like that so enjoy it while it lasts>>483398523We don't know that they're only women. It could easily be that only the women were practicing miko. The word 巫女 demands female, the word 巫子 still implies it but allows it to be gender neutral, but in both cases it is a social class being referred to.Also we literally see a male corpse in that fucking whipping hut so there clearly are men in that village, or were, since the only humanoid corpse there is Marika's grandma sheltering in the tree.
>>483398502Hefty fire pots will do it but the damage is only like 9k instead of the 20k the furnace pots do
>>483398357>dude I'm totally an oldfag I swear fr fr ogGO. BACK.
>>483398657>I'm just giving an example for the suburban/urban Americans in the room friend, I was also raised by like 8 peopleUnderstandable. Apologies.
>>483398708Yeah but that requires me to fucking land the damn hit and I only have maybe 6 or so masks (found a bunch of them laying around that one dead golem near the entrance to the Shadow Keep)If I miss I am going to want to kill something.
>>483398052He's destroyed you
>>483397989> >The purpose of life is propagation not religious shit.nta but that's true. Reproduction is the primary directive of all living beings. Religion is a human invention, biology isn't.
>>483398597Are all perfumes op or just the lightning one?>>483399112>If I miss I am going to want to kill something.hey that's me. I missed pots until I ran out of mat or it killed me with the gazillion fireball spam. I want the nip who design that fight to commit seppuku
>>483399149I mean on some level he's right but he's being an insane incel about it and I don't use that word lightly, you may as well say people should stop making art or playing vidya or whatever and just breed nonstop so long as the food for it existsReligion in ER holds not just real but obvious and immediate power, we see and can harness the power firsthand. Religion becomes as much of a priority as farming or learning how to use a spear because you can directly improve your life with it.
>>483398523>Then why are they only women? Where's the men?You do understand that we're dealing with quasi divine/mythological beingsReminder Loki birthed a wolf and the goddess of the death. Not sired, birthed.Gods are fucking weird.
>>483399325didn't backread much so I'll take your word for it
Do I need to summon leda for rellana? or every npc for bosses available? questwise, I hate that from requires things like this
>>483400243No
>>483391443The boss has like 4 moves: grab, three pounces into breath attack, breath attack, ground slam The change in elements adds strengths and weaknesses to its moveset which adds AOEs you have to avoid or cuts down on attack chains leaving more openings to kill it faster
>>483401548i can't see what the fuck it's doing
>>483400243i apparently missed a bunch of questlines in the expansion without realising at all. it's stupid how there isn't at least a log book or something to track quests. otherwise if you play the game blind you can miss a whole bunch of content till you find a random youtube video about it one day.
How do I counter swift slash ergie this is awful
>>483401698It's utterly broken right now and true combos into itself, expect a nerf soon
I still have FTH in Miquella.
>>483394094its better than mimic for bleed, aggro, and crowd control. damage and longevity as well depending on your build

>>483396460no, the nuclear family led to the most prosperous time for all social levels, across the board, that the world has ever seen. It was the high trust such a society engendered that made us weak to the scheming of the jew (which our ancestors had suppressed for thousands of years) leading to the living hell we currently inhabit
>>483396508>chicken feetbro just equip the silver tear mask and silver scarab its not that rare afaik, but theyre a pain in the ass (at rl125, 50vig)>>483396375i got 2 just playing through belurat natty. you only need 1 though its a dual weapon. use silver scarab>>483395476>it doesn't drop randomly it's from one specific horned warriornot true. i got the drop from 2 different guys
