where are you sitting?
>>486494962smooching leda while getting a handy from mike
>>486494962Where's the Dung Eater. Also, Trina. Easiest flight imaginable.
Post em
step on me mommy
>>4864949628 easily
>>4864949627 is the only correct answer. Ugh I'm fantasizing about it too much. Snap back to reality
>>486494962Next to Patches so I can cuck Miyazaki.
>>4864949625, but i'm talking to moore the whole time
Filling Miquella's tummy with hot sticky semen!
I can literally remove actual madness incants from my madness invader and nothing will change, vyke's plus offhand madness perfume can hard carry the entire build, it's insane.
>>486494962>your choices are>a hot chick and a hot shota>or>monsters, freaks, annoying faggots, or smelly aids whoresgee what a hard choice
>hosts can banish invaders on seamlessfucking babies
>>486495083
>>4864949628. Gideon is my guy
>>486495291get fucked redcel
>>486495291>Invasions can be toggled on/off>Hosts can send you home anywaylol, fuck that
scadu avater definitely has the coolest boss arena of the dlc
>>486495530it's a confirmed bugi'm kinda enjoying the jank nature of seamless pvp, it feels like demons souls again
>>486495220the spells are fun though plus it adds to your madness theme
God imagine Malenia coming home from a hard day of drilling her army and cutting giant monsters in half and she's clearly worn out as she takes off her prosthetic arm and dress to change into her night gown so you just wordlessly hand her a drink and sit behind her when she sits on the bed and start rubbing her shoulders and her back while occasionally stroking her hair and she turns her head to kiss you before leaning back into you and murmuring "mmm, thank you my sweet Tarnished" and eventually just falls asleep on you mid massage, leaving you in an inconvenient position where you also have to sleep because she's three feet taller than you
>>486495083I wish the ash on the One-Eyed Shield scaled with something aside from upgrade level only. It falls off hard in NG+.
>>486495291Doesn't really matter, it's as funny as alt f4.The invasion quality has been great thus far, although at some point metaniggers will ruin everything
FC?
>>486495808finlay pls go
Why am I scared of invading
Miquella thread
>>486496014Because you're scared of interacting with other humans. It will pass.
>>486496014are you a girl?
>>486495808>>486495986I wish Finlay had a quest like Latenna about giving Malenia her peace or something.
Why did they make the midroll timing on Gayus' charge so close?
>>486496182No...
>>486495808Fuck off, stop taunting me with things I'll never have.>>486496045That's Trina though.>>486496241Is that Koyorin?
>>486496289His hitboxes are genuinely fucked and need fixing.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmvRN2-8gu8&t=15s&ab_channel=OsborOST>there may never be a kino area with such a haunting ambience music as Liurnia of The lakesFuck I want Elden Ring 2
So like what does the "It is a cycle." Line in the memory of grace item like mean? Is it just talking about the like general idea of rising and falling orders, or does it imply something bigger?
This post scares me >>486496126Are aliens demons
>>486496708Aliens are stars, silly. They aren't real.
>>486494962imagine the headache sitting in #4for me it's #8, i'd just let gideon talk my ear off for the whole flight
>>486496241that's just Millicent's quest.
>>486497082Wait, hold on.What happens at the end of Millicent's quest? She fuses with Malenia?
>>486496708Aliens are actually finger.
>>486494909make way!!
>>486496708No, demons are aliens
>>486497286SHUT UP, ORZ!
Is it fair to say that The Promised Consort is the new best OST in the game?
>>486497420This post is exceedingly *frumple*YOU ARE *SICK* FOR THE LAST TIME, NNNHHGGAAAA
>>486497540it's pretty good but i'm midrapilled
>>4864949627I love Melina, and her sister isn't too bad either.
>>486497336What's a fan tour
>>486497685That is so *silly*! You think you see Orz, but Orz are not *bubbles*! Orz are fingers!
>>486497754I think it's when there's one of those kpop singers you really like and you follow them around on their tour to see all their concerts. or something adjacent to that
>>486497082I suppose that's accurate but, I mean to say. I wish we had more spirit ash quests like Latenna.Imagine one for every legendary spirit ashOr even every NAMED spirit ash.>>486497540Still Mohg for me.Phase transition too good.Though the NIHIL is a huge aspect of that so, maybe it's unfair to claim this.
>>486497754>>486497842
this thing makes me so happy
>>486497264No she fucking dies and you insert the needle into Malenia's flower to stop the rot.
seamless co op invasions suck
>>486497980Crap, I have to rewrite my fanfic's ending then. I wanted Miquella to meet Millicent, but if she dies in the game, I have to think of something else.
>>486495446John Elden Ring
>>486494962>4Imagine having to listen to them sperg to each other about dragons and cutting fingers off for 20 hours straight. I choose that seat.
>>486497941i agree
>>486497896The second half of Mohg's OST never managed to stand out to me. Doubly so when compared to the first half, which resurfaces in my head from the beyond from time to time.If I were to desbribe it, I'd say that the rhythm in the first half is impactful, while in the second half it's rushed.
so... they'll make another soulslike, right? it's not all sekiros from here on... right?tanimura?
what was her fucking deal
>>486498707I want Lost Kingdom 3.>>486498761Dancer, barely over a prostitute, marrying into nobility? She has a lot of issues.
>>486498707Considering Sekiro is the least successful modern FROM title and Elden Ring is the most successful, I sincerely doubt it.
Isn't it more of a Venn diagram than a ring?
>>486498701There's a specific bit of Mohg's second phasehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yR26H6dloYEBit that starts at 2m10s.
>>486498761vore fetish.
>>486497540The last part is definitely tries to set the appropriate atmosphere for the finale, but I still think the Dancing Lion is the DLC's best.
>>486497540To be honest I can't even remember it despite spending 50 hours fighting him. How does it go again?
Imagine how nuclear Messmer would go if he learned about Rykard turning himself into a snake on purpose.
>>486498761Why is she guarded by one of Godfrey's boys?
>>486498304NTA but mind posting your build? I've been messing around with that sword but I'm unsure of how I should be distributing my stats.
>>486499456The first portion is a glorious gladiatorial remix of Starscourge Radahn. The rest is mostly an angelic chorus that takes its sweet time getting to the high point.
>>486497690It's cool as fuck that the flame's "scream" in his cutscene is actually part of his theme, and doesn't play in most reuploads of the cutscene because of it.
this boss isnt even hard me and my mimic beat it on the 15th try bro
Someone tell me how Millicent's quest actually ends. I know you recover her needle, but is it the one you use on yourself to stave off the Frenzied Flame?
If it feels like you're overcomplicating the lore, you probably are. The imagery in these games is face value. If the Godskin symbol is Metyr's face, then Metyr is the GEQ. Simple as. Then you extrapolate the blatant into the obscure, like the finger worms being related to the serpents, and so on. Miyazaki didn't think as hard about this stuff as you do.
>>486499630it's like 55-45 str-arc split, which is the split I found that does the most damage, plus a tiny amount of faith for some incant requirements. Gotta have my crouchpoke > catchflame comboOther than that 60 vigor obviously, and however much endurance you need for your selected fashion and talismans
>>486499219I hate that the bird head suggests it boosts all ring spells, but in reality boosts only the one, single, extremely shitty sorcery that summons "rings"(actually figure-8s) we got in the DLC, and not for any appreciable amount either.
The hand of god that graced the lands between had three fingers, two visible and a third hidden. The true hand of the greater will has three fingers.Metyr and her two fingers are an abberation that exists because they are all broken. Metyr is the mistake.The three fingers are the true state of an "unbroken" finger, and is genuinely benevolent, but it has been driven woefully mad by the pain and suffering created by the mistake. May chaos take the world.
>>486499769Not the same one.
>>486499769YesMillicent's quest can end in two ways. You either betray her and invade her with her sisters, or you side with her and help fight them off.If you do the later, you then find her dying. She has pulled the needle that Gowry had given you to give her because it was keeping her alive long enough so she could bloom. By taking it out, she dies from the scarlet rot instead. It's also possible the needle was tampered with. I think there's implications of that but I can't remember where.Then, once you've beaten Malenia, you can interact with the bloom she leaves behind in her arena and turn the needle into the final form. Then you use THAT at Placidusax's arena and that purges you of the Frenzy Flame.There's tons of other implications and such about the meaning behind all of this. But this is the basic gist.
>>486499601Crucible knights are old-school scadutree boys. When all that shit was banished they were similarly ostracized and excluded from society.
>>486500218Ha, I see. So defeating the Frenzy Flame involves defeating Malenia, but Malenia doesn't actually dies, okay.Shucks for Millicent though.
Seamless co op invasions are awful>Calling invasion spawn points "bad" is an understatement>The majority of the time you spawn miles away from the host and often you can't even reach them legtimately>The invasion item is buggy as hell and forces you to reload the game otherwise you're stuck "finding" an invasion and can't cancel>Almost every invasion is either 2 v1 or 1v1 (yes there's tons of solo invasions on a SEAMLESS CO OP MOD)I saw other players four times out of the last 20+ invasions. On the bright side:>you can get a co invader (never saw mine lol the host just dced before I reached him)>you have to kill all the phantoms + host instead of just the host which is a nice change
>>486469508May I have the sliders?
>>486499889Thanks anon.
>>486500358>Almost every invasion is either 2 v1 or 1v1How can you tell? The host and his "phantoms" can be just as apart from each other as you from them right? Or do you only "win" and thus get sent home if you kill them all?
are they ever topping biggie and smalls?
the dragon theme hypes them up so much for a boss i just don't have to fight 90% of the time>run toward dragon>ooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAA >AAAAUHHHH>AAAAAAAAAAAUUUHHHHHH>AAUUUUUHHHH>AAAAAAAAUUUUUUUHHHH>run past dragon>AAAAAAUUUuuuhhh*ding* ouhhh..... >...>limgrave theme fades back in
>>486500568It tells you how many players are in the session when you spawn in, but you also only win and get sent home when you kill them all
>and den he ate da poopoo
>>486494962>1, 2Should be fine. Miquella is there anyway.St Trina and Thiollier will be sleeping the entire time.Ansbach would probably be reading.Malenia, Leda, Ansbach and Gideon may ask if they could change seats with you to get near Miquella.>3Eh. Hornsent would be rude to everyone, flight attendant included.>4Igon smells like shit. Shabriri would be schizo.>5Should be fine.>6, 7Patches, not good.>8Should be fine. Not a single person there would talk.
why the fuck does Godfrey just rips Serosh apart? What was the purpose of this
>>486500759Ha I see.Do you take up one of the session's slots?So if all 4 players are co-opers, you can't invade?I dunno, what you describe is the worst possible scenario and I'm sure it's not innacurate but, I feel the entire idea of seamless co-op with invasions is the absolute best fucking thing you could have for ER multiplayer.It's even better I think for co-opers. No resummoning. Just your and your m8s vs the red man and if you win you win, you lose you lose and go back to business after. No resummoning and going through the annoying yellow sign shit.
>>486500784Is this what GRRM wants for us? To eat the poopoo?
>>486500931Anime power up. Serosh is his limiter.
>>486494962I sit in 8 and wait till Gideon has to go to the bathroom, which given he's an old guy won't take long, then take his seat and gaslight him into thinking it was the other one that was hisAnd then I awkwardly fail to flirt with Sellen.
>>486500931Serosh was holding back the true power of the WARRIOR.
>>486499054no that's her husband who caved in to his vore fantasies and fed himself to a snake and became one with the snake, the crucibro just respects Tanith enough to protect her against all harm.
They already did the Miquella P2 with the Lothric princes
>>486499861You're not far off but there are a lot of issues that stem from unknown knowledge either too vague for people to make use of, or simply never given to us.For example: both marika and the fingers that guided her were described as unhinged and maddened by ymir. Then we have a place within leyndell itself called the cathedral of the forsaken which houses, you guessed it, the maddened three fingers.From this one connection someone could posit that marika's guiding fingers were the three fingers, which she at some point abandoned, but how much really supports this? There's not enough info for strong conclusions.
Mods = Gods
>>486501314tanith 100% got off on the snake shit then pounced on the opportunity to join in
>>486500627I liked Demon Prince more
>The fire part of Rellana's swords L2 doesn't count as a fire knight skillReally gay desu.
>>486500627Depends on your perspective. O&S still have the best moveset, but I think Demon Prince is an overall better fight.
>>486500627lud and zallen
>>486501328
>>486500358>yes there's tons of solo invasions on a SEAMLESS CO OP MODThat's a good thing, all you have to do is open your world to wanderers instead of having to use furled finger + taunter's tongue every fucking time.
FIGHT CLUB???
>>486501803Rellana is really reminiscent of Pontiff
>>486500975The limit is 6 players in seamless
>>486501452Yeah, it's nice to see the coomshit finally getting cleaned up. Now, we can finally discuss the actual game. I just hope it lasts.>>486502124>Using mods
HOARAH LOUX, CHIEFTAIN OF THE BADLANDS, THE EVER BRILLIANT GOLDMASK FIA, DEATHBED COMPANION.,THE LOATHSOME DUNGEATER, AND SIR GIDEON OFNIR, THE ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL KNOWING
>>486495083I love this headpiece so much
>>486500043> The true hand of the greater will has three fingers.literally blasphemy
>>486501495way too heartbroken to do any of that, she'd rather go cry to her giant portrait of pre-blasphemy Rykard than fuck his snake form
>>486502310I don't understand what all these characters have in common
>>486502373>god who abandons the world and has an abyss devoid of light has ideological similarities to a being who hates the world and lives in an abyss devoid of light.Marika is a little femcuck who's afraid of a little fire.
>>486502298>>Using modsNot sure what you mean, it's 6 player limit by default in seamless
>>486502310The lack of an animated intro in ER kills me.
>>486500931Part power limiter, sealing Godfrey's former bloodlust so he could be a proper dainty lord for Marika and not just a world-of-strength hungry meathead WARRIOR.And part him killing it when it starts to manifest, because he wants to fight you by himself. 1v1. Mano el mano. No items. Final destination.
what is even the fucking point of estus when the boss just reads yuour inputs and starts attacking as soon as you try to heal
>>486501921There's no blues so you end up wasting your time running around to rape a clueless solohost that dies within 30 seconds
>>486502769two years in and morons like you still try to heal while the boss is walking towards you ready to attack rather than after dodging something while the boss is in recovery
>>486502817they're learning, please be patient
>>486502769To get you to either no hit perfect them, git gud at stance breaking to heal, or start using spirit ashes/summons.
can you copy save files into seamless character slots?
>>486502124I thought it was 4. Interesting.
>>486502954Please enable blues AND A SPAWN RELOCATION MECHANIC LIKE THE REDS' FINGER
>>486500043>the REAL greater will is the cringe reddit nihilist one
>>486502867Late game bosses will combo extend if you do that. If you wait until recovery (the only way to tell if their combo has completed), they'll immediately attack you. The only way to reliably chug is to stance break them or summon.
The GW is Master Hand xddd
>>486497540Romina's track beats it for me but its a top 3.
>>486503098ranni confirmed for smash
>>486502959>>486503084If I riposte them, they're usually fast enough where they can recover and hit me even if I start chugging immediately afterwards.
>>486495083Do just-started new characters count
>>486502959yeah i would rather put a bullet in my head. every single bsos is the same shit
>>486503084They will not, you fucking liar.Hundreds of thousands of people have beat the game no problem. Stop crying, your cope is disgusting to read.
In Castle Ensis (I think?) there's an Imbued Sword Key you can find. Outside of the castle, there's a Waygate across a shallow river. The waygate takes you to somewhere in Rauh. There's just one enemy here and a talisman. I can't access anything else from this area.Is that all? It just has the Verdigris Talisman... nothing else?
>miquella is just lothric>rellana is just pontiff>golden hippo is just pontiff beast>aging untouchables are just winter lanterns>copy pasted tree spirits>copy pasted ds3 fliesTwo years btw. No, I did not rike it.
>>486503243No, you're supposed to heal while they're staggered. You basically give up the riposte to heal.
>>486503257good morning sirs
>>486503350yupyou can farm the enemy for armor though
>>486503427Oh come on, that doesn't look Indian at all.
>>486503383I have never seen an "open world" that seems to go out of its way to outright punish exploration like this one. These fuckers created a whole new map and the only thing justifying its existence is cookbooks.
>>486503383>>golden hippo is just pontiff beastThat one in particular is a stretch.
>>486503383>new londo ruins>grand archives
>>486503305>Hundreds of thousands of people have beat the game no problem.By abusing spirit ashes and/or bleed/one-shot builds. A good 75% of the playerbase were running RoB back on release.Also, I beat them. It's a lot like Sekiro in that you either just do a perfect run or you fucking die. All my successful attempts, I did not once touch my flasks.
>>486503243Take the Prayerful Strike pill
>was a twinsfag pre DLC and disliked Radahn and his fanboys>DLC actually reversed my opinion where I feel really bad for Radahn for what he had to go through and despise Miquella (Malenia is still fine desu she's just too loyal for her own good)Before you had the excuse that war is war, bad shit happens, but now Radahn objectively did nothing wrong (in regards to the conflict with the Haligtree faction) besides the crime of rejecting his gay little brother's marriage proposal.
>>486502589They're all capable of becoming Elden Lord with an Age that they would herald in. Hoarah Loux was supposed to beat your ass by the grace's guidance, and Gideon aspired to. All the other ones have Mending Runes.>>486502741Same, it felt very cheap at the time.
i've played 300 hours of this game and I still can't tell if I hate it
>>486503383I already made these posts fuck you
>>486503383DO YOU RIKE THE MONUMENTALS WE PUT IN FOR YOU AS A "REMEMBER THESE", HUH, DO YOU
>>486503605>EVERYONE CHEATED BUT MEEEE!!!!I don't believe you. Your victim complex is stifling.Nothing else to say, now leave.
>>486495808fuck why do I live in this world
How do I get to the area below Bonny VIllage? Its surrounded by water
>>486503804this but every ds1 reference in ds3
>>486503383I don't know bro, it sounds to me like you're greatly exagerating the DLC's reused ideas while ignoring that the base game also has many reused ideas.
>>4864949622, sliding my hands betwixt Thiolier's thighs the entire flight
>>486503808I have to agree with the whiny bitch that heal windows are nonexistent on some of the late game/DLC bosses if you're going solo, but I actually like it since it makes things way more challenging. We don't play these games because they're easy after-all. Like everything, from healing windows to items to victory, you have to fight and claw until your nails fall out to succeed.
>>486503383elden ring is simultaneously fun and also dogshitWish we had just gotten another spinoff or bb2 or something
>>486504260BB2 or a BB1 port/remaster is never happening, you people need to let go. So long as Sony has their claws in that IP, it's not going to be a thing.
Is should be called Elden Lady if you're a Type B
>>486504378is it called Elden Shogun in japan
>>486504378Nope because canonically the tarnished is male.
>>486504551Funny how in all 3 manga adaptions, the Tarnished is a guy.
>>486504217you faggots ruined these games
>>486504378I'm doing my first playthrough as a type B and I noticed that Patches and Melina actually say "she" and female gendered terms
>>486494909>what's the most unfair/unfun/poorly designed fight in Elden Ring?The Leyda gank squad fight, assuming you didn't read a guide for every single NPC questline. Enjoy your ultra tanky NPCs, rot pots, spells that do 90% of your health, and getting stunlocked through full bull goats by some bitch with a sword.
>>486504712What did you expect??
>>486504798they should come up with new pronouns for type A and type B
>>486504217It's not even that bad. Radahn's meteor, for example, lets you double double chug consistently. All of his melee combos, once you identify the proper endpoints, let you heal where you'd usually get a hit.Not that bad.
>>486503632>rejectingThe worst part of the DLC is leaving this part of the plot debatable. I still think that the war in Caelid was the part of the vow Radahn asked for, given how much they use the word "promise" regarding him and that Freyja took Miquella's side, but even that idea is littered with plot holes.It just sucks that this is how Elden Ring ends.
>>486504798Honestly I was expecting it to go out of its way to avoid gendered language entirely given they did the type b shit to begin with. I never noticed before there was gendered language cause who gives a shit about this gay shit
>Farewell.>You've always been so kind. So uncompromising.>My champion.
>get summoned for Romina>host steps in before I can even Golden Vow him>gets immediately grabbed>and oneshot>other phantom and I just both /spreadoutI just don't know anymore, man.
So, 150 or 200 by the end of the DLC? For jolly cooperations, I don't care about invasions.
>>486503632I liked it better when Radahn was a warloving but charismatic Alexander the Great expy rather than the wholesome chungus "did you know gravity magic to horse" meme the fanbase made him out to be.
>>486503685me but with 1200
>>486504378Marika is called a God, not a Goddess.
*blocks your path*How do you respond without sounding mad?
Does early YuGioh art remind anyone else kinda of Elden Ring in a way?
For the Fire Knight Greatsword, is it better to infuse heavy or fire/sacred? I'm str/fai, but I can flip which one is the higher stat of the two
someone help me beat radahn. I'm done. triple hit scissor move and the gatling beams are so tiresome. pc pass erg
>>486505392I wish we could pick these guys up and throw them. They would shatter on impact and inflict every status effect
>>486505434It all comes down to MtG
so uhh how is tarnished killing the demigods if he isnt using the black knife
>>486505392On only the big jar. Watch him be forced to kill the jar kids.
>>486505567I wish I could have one as a pet in real life.
>>486505652something something destined death
>>486505652the lore of this game is completely senselss shit you're not supposed to think about
>>486505281If you read miyazakis interviews from years ago he was meant to be both. He always was that's why the communication attached themselves so hard to the wholesome chungus thing it's what miyazaki wanted him to be thought of as. He was always meant to be an Alexander the great analog who also happened to be the president of the predecessor to the position he wanted's fanclubs, and a wholesome retard. The characterization comes from miyazaki himself he's said so
>>486505312English is an inherently sexist language
>>486505708You're a monster.>>486505550Take a break and come back to it. It'll be mentally healthier for you and will help you solidify the fight knowledge in your mind.
>>486505148I didn't even know Romina COULD one shot you. What fucking skibidi was he at?
Is there some reason im not getting real invasions any more? Its all gankers and duelists with taunters tongue on
>>4864949627, but I stuff myself full of rank beans and cheese before boarding.
>>486505652
>>486505253150 is for the end of the base game, DLC ends around 200. Some people go even higher, I've seen a ton of people at ~210 by the end.
Alright a problem. I'm addicted to this place, I can't sleep well, I forget to eat sometimes, I think about you guys at work, my gf left me because I spent so much time here she thought I was cheating and that only made me spend more time here. I'm not joking when I say I was sitting on my bed kicking my feet in the air and twirling my hair whenever someone here talked to me like a lovesick highschool girl. I have a problem. I dream about you all too, I'm becoming addicted to this general, addicted to you all. I think I'm falling in love how pathetic that sounds. It's like I'm one of those waifufags but instead of a character /erg/ is my waifu. HOW DO I STOP THIS
>>486502589they are all Tarnished
>>4864949626 might have some funny dialogue
>>486504364It will happen.I saw it in a dreamBB PC port 2025. Screencap this.
>>486506151we love you too
>>486505906Yo Romina has huge tits??
>>486506151>we stole anon from his gfDid we ntr her technically?
WHO the fuck even is Romina
>>486505906I didn't think to look, but he was also wearing the fucking frog mask, so you know, probably an idiot.
roll five to ten different attacks poke once repeat. that is every single boss in this game
>>486506497is Romina confirmation that the DLC takes place after the main game?It seems she took up the rot powers that Malenia shed after she was defeated by The Tarnished
When the fuck is it my turn to attack?
Should i do ng+ on one of my guys with tons of random weapons or do an autism collector playthrough where i get everything and use that save for all future ng+ games
>>486506854never but stop rolling away from him retard
>>486506854If you rolled in instead of away you could have not only been hitting him on multiple occasions, but ALSO avoided his more dangerous attacks he only does when you're at range. GET IN. BE AGRESSIVE. STOP BACKING UP. This boss is specifically designed to fuck you up if you backpedal.
>>486506852Messmer burned her shit ages ago.
>>486506151>I'm not joking when I say I was sitting on my bed kicking my feet in the air and twirling my hair whenever someone here talked to me like a lovesick highschool girlplease get a bf or something
>>486505453Heavy with a weapon buff incant or Sacred. For some reason, Sacred gets higher AR than Flame Art.
>>486506854We've been over this: When you stop rolling backwards like a coward and start rolling into him. What are you afraid of, dying? at the very last boss? You should be over that shit by now, make use of every window you can.
>>486506852No. It's said when malenia rejected the rot which we later see her embrace during her boss some of it ended up at the shadowlands. Also leda says you're there to face miquella so he doesn't stand in your way of becoming elden lord, miquella himself calls you aspiring lord of the old order meaning you haven't created your new age yet(every single ending is a new age hence their names) and you aren't yet elden lord. If it took place after the main game it'd require completion of it.
>>486506151Shhh, here, have a hug.
>>486506893>autism collector playthrough where i get everythinggood fucking luck, I lalways miss something and get locked out
>>486507020Backpedaling is the best way to avoid the overhead shadow clones THOUGH. Really the best advice is for you to roll forwards, get oneshot by the few moves that actually do require moving backwards, and gradually trial-and-error which is which because every time you guess wrong you get flashbanged and can't see shit.
How the fuck do you get down here?
Fia wouldn't even hug me, I'm not a great championI can't even get a hug from the literal death hooker
>>486507286from the church area
>>486506151You are coping with the disappointment of SotE
>>486507286Try looking around the church district in the shadow keep.
>>486507286New Londo
>>486507286Church district. Gotta drain it first.
Beast Claws aren't very good, huh.>>486506854fun fact, 99% of those beams of light will miss if you're right up next to him. Stop rolling away.>>486507250Actually, I just blocked those. They do almost no damage on their own, the only serve to combo you into his actual slam. Even a shit shield or two-handed weapon takes nearly no stamina damage from blocking them.They look scary, but that's it.>>486507286not!New Londo
>>486507485>Beast Claws aren't very good, huh.They can be, but the player in that clip plays like an idiot.
>>486507250>Backpedaling is the best way to avoid the overhead shadow clonesMoving forward works just as well,>the few moves that actually do require moving backwardsI only remember one, which is when he floats in the air to throw rocks at you.Technically there's also him pulling you closer with gravity, but I don't think he uses it at close range.
>>486507473>>486507428>>486507403>>486507375Oh, I must have missed the way over there when I was down there. I thought I had explored it all.
>>486507315That's not Fia, that's Isa.
>>486507485>Beast Claws aren't very goodThey're actually very good in PvE.
>>486507661Yeah I surmised as much
Minor /erg/tree
>>486507729It's a side passage from the chapel with the Marika statue, it's fairly obvious when you know to look for it.
The fact that it's taken almost an entire month for us to hit the "wtf bro how could you say Consort Radahn is hard, just have practiced his fight for 6 straight weeks like me and he's easy!" is proof of how retarded his fight is, it took less than half that time for similar cope to start circulating around Malenia and that's even with WFD.
>>486507148lil bro playing like it's jumanji rules. Die in the game die irl.
How does Miquella not get motion sickness
>>486507729>>486507932Oh, I know what happened. I came here before I had finished exploring the rest of the area then forgot to come back to open this door.
>>486507982cute fanart idea, asking radahn very politely to slow down and stop spinning while very queazy
>>486507946The dlc came out last week. Are you guys retarded
>One of the most popular PvP streamers has been fighting Radahn at NG+7 for like 70+ hoursHow fucking bad do you have to be
>>486507982>>486508090Funnily enough there's actually a glitch where radahn moves in slow motion in second phase. Maybe its an actual mechanic not a glitch?
>>486508097Anon...
>>486506497saint of the dude
>>486508254Isn't that just the FPS dropping?
>>486495139>>486497708>>486505994Patches WILL be kicking the fuck out of your seat
>>486508097>The dlc came out last weekAnon, in a few days it'll have been a fucking month.
Hyetta's voice is soooo goooooo
>>486508137Let's see you kill him in a reasonable amount of time without cheese at fucking NG+7.
I don't really like this fight so far. This second phase is eerily reminiscent of elden beast where I spend 80% of the time sprinting towards it.
>>486496241why didnt we get a cleanrot NPC in the DLC who could mention finlay
>>486508639she sounds like a retarded child albeit
>>486497540Belurat Tower Settlement OST and Scadu Altus' OST are peak in my opinion
>>486508698Seek fire
>>486508728Fun fact, Irina/Hyetta's voice actor also voiced Kagha the psycho druid trying to take over the Emerald Grove in BG3.
what was so bad about the haligtree that miquella gave up on it
>>486497540Like most Elden Ring tracks, it suffers from having too much shit going on at once, especially in phase 2. Phase 1 isn't so blaring so you can still catch the melody, but in phase 2 whatever melody there is just gets drowned out and makes it unmemorabled. ER OST gets mogged hard by basically every previous souls game except Dark Souls 2.
>>486497941>>486498304such a sick fucking weapon. arcchads stay winning
>>486508698hahaha yeahanyway I hope you enjoy phase 3 where you have to spend half the time running away from it because its gonna explore and the other half running after it because it decided to Sonic slide halfway across the map to spam bleed thorns at you
>>486508851Does it react like the poison plants? I'll chuck fire pots at this cunt if it does.
>>486508951yeah it's great, the dlc was good for str/arcI like carrying the flower gavel just to snipe people with too
>>486508951Honestly, I think everyone won this DLC. Every one of my build archetypes got something cool to use
>>486506497i dont know why're we even killing her
>>486508704It would've been finliy her twin sister
>>486509010>phase 3>mfwCan't say I particularly enjoy this type of fight. Even with an int build it kinda sucks since it just spams ranged shit right back at me.
>>486500627Godskin Duo exists
>>486509135why are we killing ANYONE at all in this DLC dudeWhy do need to kill Messmer, I'm sure he'd agree stopping Miquella from becoming a God for his Age of Twinks is a good thing
>>486508928It was a result of Miquella's curse. His curse isn't youth, that's just a side effect of what it actually is: an inability to complete anything he undertakes.
>>486509019No it's fire resistance is just HORRID. It dies fast as fuck if you use fire damage. I killed it in one try just spamming uncharged fire serpents for fucks sake. Every build besides pure INT has access to some form of fire damage, just use it.
>>486508931I don't know anything about music but the OSTs for Seath and Taurus Demon alone come across as more brilliant than anything in later games to me. I've always felt like ER's soundtrack was missing something and too often strayed into the generic, but I still don't think it's worse than DSIII or Demon's Souls.
>>486505148Hosts are retarded. If they weren’t they wouldn’t be hosts. I quite literally just came from a boss fight against the skibidi sunflower where the host did nothing but spam impenetrable thorns at it. Somehow it never registered to him or the other phantom that you can’t bleed a fucking plant so I basically had to solo a boss bloated for three people. Thank fucking god for frenzied burst.
>>486508264>>486508546That doesn't make any fucking sense. I've spent some time posting here and playing the game but the dlc only came out a little over a week ago at most. Why would time move by so quickly? That makes no sense I feel like you guys are gaslighting me
>>486508928have you seen the haligtreeits a shithole filled with retard abominations and rotnothing went right
>>486508931The main theme/Radabeast one goes pretty hard, and I like the one that plays when you fight the night cavalry, but yeah, as a whole it's a pretty forgettable soundtrack.
>>486507485Beast Claws are perfect if you put Raging Beast on them & just slide around like a madman
>>486509392Now look at today's date.
>>486509286BRAVO GEORGE
>>486497540Midra and Bayle have objectively better themes. Those strings in bayle’s phase two are made of pure sex.
>>486509339Wait, was there another phantom with you who got hit by like every AoE the boss did and kept trying to Regalia BRRRRR the boss?
>>486509260Uuuh because we're the erdtree's champion, or something. EVEN THO we might actually just be planning the erdtree down, which happens in both Ranni's and Lord of Frenzied Flame ending. Who cares lol, they made the world so big the player just being a total murderhobo makes no sense but FromSoft was too lazy to update their game design.
Elden Ring's lore is fucking trash. Seriously, the lore is irredeemable due to cut content, last minute rewrites and shitty translations. Here is a perfect example that shows this game's horrible lore."Remembrance of the Putrescent Knight, hewn into the Scadutree. The power of its namesake can be unlocked by the Finger Reader. Alternatively, it can be used to gain a great bounty of runes. All tainted flesh eventually becomes putrescence, and this clump of it imbibed St. Trina's nectar, which granted it eternal rest. And so it was that putrescence became her knight."We don't have a clue about what putrescense really is. The remembrance description doesn't even attempt to explain how this putresecense took the form a knight on horseback. But the worst part of this is this sentence: And, just like that, putrescence became St. Trina's knight.It's evident that this shit is a last minute rewrite due to time constraints. We don't why this putrescence drank St. trina's bath water and why it became a knight. The item description just expects you believe this shit with no real justification. It's evident that the writers tried to hamfist St.trina somehow because the putrescence knight is right behind St. trina's room, but this shit boss has 0 relation to trina's character. For reference. The putrescence knight's code name is GloamEyedKnight. The devs wanted to include the gloam eyed queen into this DLC but couldn't due to incompetence and terrible management but they have made a boss related to her already .So, the devs decided to dump this boss in the grand fissure and write a couple of lines to somehow tied the putrescent knight to St trina's quest.
>>486508928>>486509286This is why he chose radahn. Radahn could stop fate itself if only temporarily, that means he may be able to stop miquella's cursed fate actually allowing him to complete something for once. That's why he needed him especially. Too bad that once radahn died things continued, and thus his fate continued, and only a short while after becoming a god ready to enact his age of compassion we show up and kill him, ensuring once and for all he'll never finish his plans.
>>486508928It all went to shit when the pests started squatting there
>>486506854bro try rolling in one time. i beg you
>>486508931Come to think of it, is there even any DS2 track that anybody remembers aside from Majula?
>>486509286He's literally just me for real
>>486509309I actually just spammed stars of ruin and fire pots at it's face until it died. I figured it out after the first try but it's face is just weak as shit in general. Fire pots did retard damage when it hit the head. Expecially the heft pots. Easy ass fight once I figured that out. Kinda boring that it turned in to a DPS race, though. I could hit it for free while it was exploding so phase 3 was trivial as shit.
>>486509576No, just two dipshits spamming thorns while I do my best to shoot the fucking thing in the face with burst and lightning spears. We might’ve run across eachother under similar circumstances though if you remember a guy wearing the pelt of Ralf’s and raksasha armor.
>>486509286absolute cope to not make the dlc plot even more retarded
>>486507946i literally beat promised consort in like 3 hours total. i had a harder time with rellanna
>>486509604>We don't have a clue about what putrescenseDescription of the Congealed Putrescence item: "The putrescence is what remains of the impure lives kept within the stone coffins." It's sarcophagus juice.
>>486509604The putrecent knight in the files was originally named knight of the gloam eyed queen. The dlc based on cut content we've seen so far had a lot to do with her and marikas backstory, likely a result of them combining the two dlcs, the one involving marikas backstory then the one involving miquella into one its also why metyr is off on the side as an optional boss. If you want to know more cut things most of the ghostflame stuff we see and get in the dlc used to be blackflame related, we also know there was a blackflame related boss that has the exact same face as melina with her frenzy ending hair color. The original dlcs before being combined seemed like we'd actually get answers to many many questions about marika in the first dlc, hen later miquella in the second. I have no clue why they changed it. Made everything worse.
What did ringing those finger bells actually do? I don't quite understand why we needed to do that.
>WOWIE THIS IS GAME IS SO FUN HAHA IT LETS ME ROLEPLAY AS A MARVEL HERO!!! I CAN'T WAIT TO BEAT THIS NEXT BOSS>NOW LET ME JUST SUMMON SOME BULLS TO CARRY ME THROUGH THE LEVEL....>OH! HEY THERE RACIST_INCEL_ARYAN1488!! CAN YOU CARRY ME THROUGH THE BOSS?>W-WAIT SOMETHINGS OFF... ARE YOU A HECKIN NAZI???>N-NEVER MIND. M-MUST'VE JUST BEEN MY IMAGINATION>ANYWAYS, LET ME SUMMON ANOTHER SISSY FAGGOT TO CARRY ME THROUGH THE LEVEL, I HOPE THIS ONE IS A FELLOW BERNIE SUPPORT-ACKK
>>486510049holy fuck you posted this in the last thread with the same text. how many of you guys are actually mentally ill
>>486510024>I have no clue why they changed it. Made everything worseprobably because they don't want to continue supporting elden ring this long and need to work on new games
>>486509709I liked the skeleton lords track. Just a frenzied violin or whatever the fuck. I didn't finish that game, but that song stuck even if I got them first try.
>>486505652The erdtree contains spiritual death via godwyn. You can kill and sever their soul, you just can't kill their bodies.
>>486509812No it fits grrms and miyazaki's writing and makes things even more retarded. Because miquella is described as one of the wisest most intelligent demigods yet he didn't realize his own curse or if he did tried to ignore it? Why?
>>486509790Fair enough, I just remembered that the other phantom I was with kept doing frenzy stuff and being much more effective than myself or the host(who was, in fact, spamming thorns; it must be a common affliction).
>>486509323Dark Souls 3's music is just a lot more memorable than ER's for the same reason the tracks from Dark Souls 1 you mentioned are memorable, that is that they all have a strong and immediately identifiable melody or theme that's actually congruent with the character you're fighting. Take Vordt for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKPZMc0FpXo, he starts the fight slow and lumbering towards you and his theme sounds heavy to reflect that, but when he becomes a mad dog in phase 2 the strong slow voice in phase 1 starts screaming in a way that roughly matches the pattern of his charging. Oh and it still keeps a strong central melody that doesn't get drowned out by other instruments. This kind of characterization through music happens for very few bosses in ER, you'll get extremely desperate screaming wether you're fighting a dragon or some random knight mook they stuck a boss health bar under.>>486509439There are of course great tracks in Elden Ring, but they are scarce relative to the size of the boss roster. Personally I like Radagon/Elden Beast's, Godfrey's, Mohgs, Morgott's and a few others, but I could count them on my fingers.
>>486510039Try finger but hole haha
>>486510165He does it for attention. Just let him do his thing and it’ll keep him from shitting up the thread more than usual.
>>486504364I'm not a port hopeful, but>Sekiro>Horizon>Spiderman>God of War>GhostsThey're only not bothering probably because it's an old shitty game that didn't sell that well.
>>486510039>ringing>bells>we actually go up and blow into a holeUNACCEPTABLE
>>486509260>trying to make sense of the story and character motivations in a game with Godefroy the fucking GraftedI shiggy diggy doo
>>486510178So you're telling me to never buy one of their games since they're clearly just going to do more shit like this but worse in the future?
>>486494909But Godskin Duo is a modern take on Ornstein & Smough, that seminal Dark Souls boss fight...
>>486510253I knew when I heard that Yuka Kitamura was leaving Fromsoft is when the ost weren't going to be memorable or all that great anymore. That girl was a gem.
Why was the Putrescence Knight even guarding St. Trina?
now that elden ring is over, can we admit that open worlds are a meme?
>>486504364it'll be emulatable in a few years
>>486509709Ruins Sentinels and Sir Allone.
>>486510465It knows the kinds of degenerates that want to meet her and it doesn’t approve.
>>486510492Open worlds do not work well with the Souls formula, that's for sure. If Fromsoft wants to continue making open world stuff, they seriously need to change things up in their approach to... a whole mess of things.
>>486509260>>486509601I'd like to add that marikas grace doesn't actually point you towards messmer. She doesn't want us fucking with him but we still murder the only other kid she has that gave a fuck about her because we are legitimately murderhobos.
>>486510441they have literally always done shit like this for all their games because they can't into deadlines
>>486510049These posts are so fucking based
>>486509709Sir Alonne is the only ost I can recall. Everything else might as well be white noise to me.
>>486510459You're a gem. How about that? >>486510492Open worlds were always a meme. Even the games that do it right would be infinitely better if thongs were more linear. Just like with graphics open world is just a retarded game dev obsession that's making gaming worse. Have fun with bioshock 4 it'll be open world too
>>486510645Just make the next 'open world' game take place in a giant castle. 3D Castlevania that's all it takes
>>486510465No reason
>>486510049Based. I missed these, thought you got permabanned by some seething hostclitty mod.
>>486509709Nashandra SinhVelsdat The skeleton lords have a really good track too for no reason, they're basically a bad gank squad they don't deserve it.
>>486510673Yeah but I can into you
Man I really just want to get summoned to help people run dungeons. I don't want to be summoned to watch a low Scadu host face check an end boss anymore. I'm tired boss. Just summon me & let me lead you through some dungeon. I know where all the cool shit is, I'll solo the fucking boss I don't care. Just no more Radahn/Radagon/Bayle/Metyr jump & dump
>>486509812>>486509286>>486510230It's the curse of order, which is to say its the curse of stagnancy. Within order things cannot change, for better or for worse they remain as they are. True change is inherently chaotic, and thus out of miquella's reach.Miquella did in fact abandon this fate, his fate is the golden starlight you give to seluvis. its how he was able to overcome order and become a god.
>>486511089You know you can shut certain summon pools off right?
anyone with an 80 int magic build mind helping me test out something? wont take long. just want to see how much I can tank.
>>486510853>playing a bioshock after infinitelmao ngmi
>>486511048n-no you can't
>>486510459Her songs were some of the shittiest and most generic in all the games combined
>>486511089I’ve come to prefer being summoned purely for bosses. Letting hosts explore almost always ends in them dying to something completely avoidable even when I handhold them. At this point I feel like I only co-op to remind myself why invade. Stupid people don’t deserve nice things.
>>486511105Wouldn't marikas curse be order considering she started the golden order and the elden beast is the manifestation of the elden ring and order itself.
i just lost 160 hours of progress, 2 toons, everything. the save file has been corrupted and over written.i have no backups or anything. what the fuck can i do? tried the hex editor thing that didnt workim fucking guttered

>>486511347>im fucking guttered
>>486511513While I disagree with him if you look at polls more browns are into dks3 and sekiro than any other fromsoft game even elden ring surprisingly. But elden ring is a close 3rd. Meanwhile browns like bloodborne and demons souls least.
>>486511347Just start a new playthrough with a fresh set of eyes, pretend you're playing for the first time, I believe in you anon. Maybe play some older games you've never played before to forget about the tragedy before you come back.
>>486511347Cheat engineUnlock all graceAdd all armors and talismansgib soulsgib itemsWow ur toons are back
>>486511176>playing a bioshock after 2Fixed that for you
>>486496708>>486496126That's actually the problem Aquinas was dealing with: What exactly is "natural?" Are miracles just nature behaving in a way it doesn't usually behave? Is God natural or supernatural? He made nature, some believe he is nature itself.
>>486511089>>486511304Someome pointed out something a while ago and it's 100% true. Most people who play elden ring don't know how to play it. They got through the game by being carried by overleveled phantoms or YouTube builds and never actually learned many of the mechanics, easily brute forcing their way through the game. They legitimately never learned.

>>486496708>>486511920If aliens are demons we know the numen are aliens and the carians may be descended from aliens and that marika and her demigods caused all of the world's problems in some way. Could marika, ranni, miquella, and others be demons?
>>486512164Yes. Just like Radagon being Marika means that they all have two moms.
>>486512027I look like this irl and have a pet snake i self insert as rellana and dream about being raped then cuddled by messmer
>>486512074Oh you were mid playthrough? Try hexington or tga's tables (get offline launcher from nexusmods) and tinker with it. You can definitely unlock only specific graces and items

Someone buy elden ring + DLC for me... I'll be your bedside companion...
>>486512369Why?
>>486512314the game crashed for me then corrupted the save file and it was overwritten. its fucked up. im a dumb ass
>>486512279I do wonder if marika could make redhead kids with a non redhead guy considering the opening art, paintings in his castle, and the manga all giving rykard blonde hair. That's if his hair didn't lighten over time due to his madness which grrm likes to do for some reason
>>486512369post steam
>>486511307Marika created the golden order but she's not defined by it and didn't have it the way miquella does.
>>486512287>Rellana>Raped by MessmerCan't be rape if she wants it
>>486512504Dont do it idiot. These third worldies dont deserve shit
>>486512445How do you even back shit up, won't it clash with the cloud if you try to restore it?
>>486511947That was me probably. Someone asked why every host is literally braindead and passive and I told him because he exists. Too many phantoms are willing to hold their hands and beat the entire game -for- them. Even the ones who don't summon phantoms Google broken builds and summon the mimic tear. This is why the DLC got review bombed, funny enough. A lot of the cheese builds plus mimic that absolutely buttfuck the base game will NOT work on DLC bosses. Brainless normies who 1-3 tried bosses suddenly ran into walls where they died a dozen times and gave up and left a bad review because "game too hard".
>>486512551she wants it but she says no anyway
Why does hornsent and dane have the highest holy armor in the game
>>486512573seems to be a common issue alot of people have back ups of their save file and turn cloud saving off

>>486512684YesAlso on another note am I the only one that when that fucker said>Mongrel intruderFor the first time I was fucking SURE it was Iwan Rheon ( Ramsay Snow's actor) doing the voice acting.All the other lines are nowhere near but that opening fucking line was fucking uncanny.

>>486512680Does it work for the blinkbolt axes? How much does it actually buff them? There's not very many dash attacks.
If you use type B with a katana it's an instant disconnect

How come we only ever got one fucking Frost Lightning spell & never any info on the dragonkin?
>>486512960How does frenzy flame work vs bosses. I thought it was just the buff spell you use before the fog gate
>>486513292We got plenty of fucking info on the dragonkin. They are failed Nox experiments to try and create their own dragons. The fuck more do you want?
>>486512896"Dash attacks" includes sprinting attacks.
>>486510024>If you want to know more cut things most of the ghostflame stuff we see and get in the dlc used to be blackflame related, we also know there was a blackflame related boss that has the exact same face as melina with her frenzy ending hair color.source required! where do you guys find this stuff man? twitter? discord? im so tired of rooting around reddit for cool info i hate that place
She deserved a cutscene.
I see a lot of prettyboy Tarnished in ER. What's the appeal of playing a Griffith-lite character anyways?
>>486513420It doesn't. Frenzy is a status effect on tarnished only. All frenzy incants/weapons just deal their damage with no status build-up to everything else.
Trying to watch Jeenine, why is he so whiny?
>>486510165>how many of you guys are actually mentally illits not really a general without a handful of schizo posters
>dancer of the boreal valley at homeOverrated + boring.
>>486513584It's so stupid that madness doesn't work on normal enemies. I can understand bosses being immune but most enemies probably shouldn't be
>>486513663It's literally bleed but better. If it worked on bosses it'd be broken as fuck.
>>486513645I beat her first try just by rolling through her. Rellana took way more effort.
>>486513584>>486513663>we should be able to conduct psyops on animals
>>486513585Self-hating Asian French-Canadian who's realised he's stuck doing the shit he does even though he hates every moment of it because he's dependent on the revenue his enablers give him.
>>486495083this Tarnished is here to fuck your mouth
>>486513548>What's the appealhomosexuality
>>486513734>Difficulty difficulty difficulty difficulty
>>486513734gaius, messmer, and hippo were all very frustrating experiences for me. messmer especially. what a cunt holy shit
>>486513528She deserved a lot of things, anonymous, not dying chief among them. But the only way for a boss to survive in this game is to be a mindbroken mental retard like her sister.
Can anyone give a small hint as to how to get to the eastern part of the map? It’s the only fragment I don’t have and I’ve been looking for an hour.
>>486509604look at the armor of night it has the gloam eye sigil. and the shadow tree is quite obviously a death tree and it even has a second tree strangling it. dlc was supposed to be all about death and they fucked it up somehow and just threw together what they could
>>486513935Which eastern part of the map, anon?
is there a flowchart or something to complete all quests and shit in sequence, i made a new build and trying to remember what to do in the exact order and when to do it
>>486513585His channel stagnated, he's a competitive player in a game with the shittiest and most broken PvP ever and people only watch him to see him suffer against sweaty gankers, shit's depressing
>>486513548I'm a mentally ill fujoshi and like to imagine my male tarnished tarnished being raped by male invaders and bosses.
>>486513953No, it's far more likely that partway through development the decision was made to make an ER2 at some point and save some lore, like the GEQ shit, for that.
>>486513838i liked messmer
>>486513935Show us your map so we can tell you.
>>486512960>make the world a gentler placeelden ring an aria painting confuckingfirmed
>>486513976>>486513935blue means underground. i am assuming that this is the part you're talking about. if not, i have the other eastern map fragment ready to go in about 30 seconds
>>486513468But why were they making dragons? How did they fail? What IS frost lightning & why can't I have a couple of spells based on it?
>>486513825>difficulty = boring
>>486513935>>486513976>>486514080>>486514091here's the other one
>>486514003W-WAIT NO LET ME BUFF AND CHANGE MY GEAR WAIT WAI-ACK
Rellanna was one of the worst continual ass whoopings Ive taken in vidya latelyBut the music and fight were so good Im over my butthurt
>>486512551>>486512615What this anon said. I want messmer to rape me but I want him to lovingly do it like I want him to hold me down and have his way with me while i say no and beg him to stop but i deep down want him to then for him to feel bad and cuddle me while I pet his head and call him a good boy. Idk what to call it but there's different types of rape there's a difference between having it done by someome you aren't attracted to and don't want to sleep with vs someome you are attracted to and want to sleep with, it's like you consent to the latter and they know you consent and are rough but not too rough and would stop if you showed intense discomfort.
>>486514292Once you realize you can parry her she becomes a much easier fight.
>>486514296that's called consensual non-consent by the way
>>486512762>anti-4chanuh, based, guess i'm classist now
>>486514065Reminds me of picrel lol
>>486514114>But why were they making dragons?The same reason they tried to make their own Lord, war.>How did they fail?Because you can't make some fucked up living dragon statue thing and bring it to life and expect it to be a real dragon. Just like the mimics failed to imitate people.>What IS frost lightningA crude attempt to copy ancient dragon lightning using frost>& why can't I have a couple of spells based on it?For starters because it's inherently stronger than regular lightning and would invalidate it entirely if they made more.
>>486513935the big blue part in the shadowkeep is in the area with the pyre boats. peer over the edge and drop down onto the mezzanine level with the water's surface. look for a room, then start beating the shit out of all of the walls you see inside those rooms until the illusory walls gives way. jump inside the funny teleporting casket and wake up at the bottom fo the lake.in order to get to the area, you have to complete a relatively well hidden and quite complex catacomb. bring anti-deathblight buildup of some kind, and especially some sort of anti-undead shit. it's pretty aids in there
Who the fuck even is Messmer? He wasn't mentioned in the game at all so why people and Scamco Bandai were like "*GAAAAAHAHAHASP MESSMER!!" like he's anything like Artorias? The DLC is focused on Miquella anyways and it turned out to just be some conquer guy that burns villages so what the fuck was that all about?
>>486513548Asians? Arguably it's more "lore friendly" but less interesting than the craggy old prunes or sluts that a lot of people on here play considering how NPCs talk about your character being young, charming, and inexperienced.
Where do I farm Frozen Maggots besides cheat engine?
>>486514436Thanks I'll use that from now on. That's how my rape fantasies are.
>>486514537He's another demigod child of Marika and Melina's brother.
Best part of the family tree coming thru beep beep motherfuckers
>>486514543>craggy old prunesI resemble that remark.
Devs were trying... something here... I guess.>>486494909>QOTTAncient Dragons, probably. Maybe Leda's ganksquad without Ansbach and Thiollier on your side. This fight is C-Tier btw.
>>486514649your moms hat is dumb
>>486514543>>486513548Most male Tarnished play with full face helmets anyways. People don't really bother face sculpting them.
>>486514018messmer was probably a godskin apostle originally
>>486514672I love battle grannies
>>486497540Dancing Lion
>>486514582or just cnc for shorta lot of people will just call it cnc
>>486514537They used to market DLC with locations but now they need some cringe anime guy on the cover.
>Eyes of Yelough>They're red
>>486513548He's my only character like this he's dex/int. Whenever I think dex int I think of some weird twink with a rapier and staff so that's what he is.
>>486514727That's headcanon, stupid headcanon at that.
>>486514849yelough isn't a color dummy
>>486513991Anyone?
>>486514296kek you broads are wildearly in our marriage my wife had me play out this whole burglary rape thing with herShit was cash
>>486514901>he
>>486514543i think pretty boys are more interesting than type bs
>>486514091>>486514253I said hint
>>486514901Twinks should have at least some hints that they're male, that's just straightup a woman.
>>486513548Japanese game, please understand. Sides, I bounce back and forth. My last character (in DaS2) was a bearded lumberjack.
>>486515142then provide us your map
>>486495083sup
>>486515041I'd post the sauce to that, but cbox links have been getting pruned.
why is it tha
>>486514901I play a manly woman with a big axe, so there's that.
Dumb ass coomers.

>>486515191Nice, very anime.
>Dumb ass coomers.
>>486514806>member ds1
>>486515203I have a missing chunk out of the eastern section of my map, not north eastern, not south eastern, directly eastern. I just want a hint as to how to start to get there, not a step by step tutorial.
>>486514003>Elden ring is just a humiliation ritual for pvp tranniesInsanely based.Thank you Mitsubishi i understand your vision now
>>486515621The Tarnished One's autism seems more natural that way.
>486515724nah thats what you look like, type b
why does edgar invade you
>>486515825been to abyssal woods?
THIS DLC SUCKED.
>>486515921He went.... LE MAD !!!!You rike?
>>486515921He got duped by Shabriri. Duh.
>>486515825the nature of the location of the area you're referring to is virtually impossible to find without more than hints man. it's requires a specific sequence of events that you could only stumble upon alone. that's why you haven't found it. take into consideration you are not meant to find everything by yourself, by deliberate design
>>486515921Because he went insane and you walked near his hut.
WHY ISN'T IT AN INCANTAION FUCK YOU MIYAZAKI FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU
>>486514901based and thiollier pilled
>>486514296you just have a fantasy of sex without taking any responsibility for it and with man doing all the work (because it's a "rape", you don't have to worry if he's pleased or not, but it's your fantasy, so a man HAS to please you, because it is a SEXY "rape")"i was forced, i'm not a slut, i would never, tee hee ...!'disgusting and deeply immature coping mechanisms
>>486516379It's fucking shit ass anyway
>>486515041>early in our marriage my wife had me play out this whole burglary rape thing with herugh jealous
>>486515825>>486516264alright then anyway here's my best attempt>its entrance is genuinely hidden within a legacy dungeon.>it is entirely possible to reach the ENTRANCE (not the area containing the map itself) without defeating any bosses whatsoever
>>486516379YOU RIKE?!?!?!??!?!?!?
>>486516063It definitely insists upon itself
If you could ask Miyazaki one lore question certain that it would be answered in full, what would it be?
>>486516379The real question is why didn't they make a new Crucible Knight weapon with this skill so your weapon would match the armor
>>486516752who and what is melina
>>486516682I dont know what that means but the final boss is gay and the bosses all feel the same with how spastic and spammy their attacks are
>>486516752Did you intentionally make Ranni a hypocritical power hungry bitch I can't relate to?
>>486517060being a hypocrite and being correct are not mutually exclusive
I'm gonna use backhand blades in pvp and press R1
>>486516379It's garbage anyway. Even if it was an incant it'd be just as worthless. In PvP everyone with an IQ above single digits will dodge it easily and in PvE it does no damage.
>>486516752Is the Old One really God like the Talisman of Beats suggests, or was it made by God like King Allant says?
>>486514296It's retarded, but I get it. I feel like the difference is pretty different from some faceless ugly bastard who does it because they hate you vs stuff that's done with loving intent and are into. I feel that's true for gay stuff, at least
How long until they add farmable larval tears to extend the game's life?
>>486516819We already know this retard. She's Messmer's sister. She's a daughter of Marika.
>>486517184farmable titanite slabs too
>>486517239thats what we're led to believe but i dont think so. i actually think she's just marika
>>486517239ok then change the question to who are messmer and melinas father
>>486517184Never. Why would they do that? Once the game is at the point where it's dead, they won't want you to play it anymore. They'll want you to play their new game. It isn't like we pay a monthly sub like an MMO, they have zero incentive to keep us playing.>>486517314That's retarded. You're retarded.
>>486517239Don't forget she's also the GEQ
>get summoned for scadutree avatar>host then summons someone who's set their sign down specifically for that fight, not at the co-op stake>they're a holy build>dual coded swords>get into the fight>they keep throwing holy spellsSirSIRAre you aware that you're doing fuckall to an enemy THAT RESISTS HOLY THE STRONGEST
>>486517342>Both are fucked up curse babies and Messmer has red hairIt's clearly fucking Radagon, especially since we know Messmer is younger than Godfrey's kids.>>486517414Nice headcanon.
>>48651742840% resistance is literally nothing. stop sperging out retard
>>486517506melina doesn't have red nor blonde hair
>>486517376It wouldn't stop a single person from buying the new games. But it might make people buy the old game if it still has an active scene.
>>486517529It's the Scadutree Avatar. A faith build has access to fire, which it has a 40% VULNERABILITY to. Just doing nothing but holy to it is trolling at this point.
>>486517626So? You realize kids don't always inherit their parent's hair color right?
>>486517790lmao2swords have like 1400 AR between the two of them with modest skibidi fragments. bro is doing just fine. besides a longer fight is going to force them to git gud and dodge attacks more betterer
>>486517626And Rykard has blonde hair so what's your fucking point?
>>486517948rykard had red hair
Stars of Ruin is an underrated spell
Ranni the muhfuggen bitch
>that tiny candle on top of helmetwhy are carians such dorks
>>486517790Are you new? Holyfags are mentally ill. Despite FTH having access to every damage type in the entire game they are incredibly autistic and refuse to use any of it besides Holy. This is why they bitch about Maliketh, Radagon, and the Elden Beast so much. Despite having access to incants that would reduce these 3 to Swiss cheese, they insist they have to use only holy incants or their RP is ruined. This would be fine if they saw it as a challenge of course, but they don't. They bitch and whine about it.
>>486495083>>486495340>>486502338>>486513771>>486515254Stop mixing armor sets.
>>486518102Ranni the cool gal who shows me where to fight radical aliens and spelunk radical underground cities.
Are you a cosplayer or white mask bullgoat type player?
>>486518105All I can imagine with retarded helms like that is them walking through a doorway or arch and their helmet tip hitting the architecture and their head yanking back lmao
Midquella could never.
>>486518056NTA but no he doesn't. The official artworks depict him as a "blonde" with pale dirty blonde colored hair.
>>486517818In Gurm's writing they absolutely do.
>>486518273Too tall, too old
>Marika canonically tells you to kill every demigod but Ranni, Mohg, and MaleniaThey point at Ranni but since she's unkillable it's likely that Marika wants you to work with her. New theory is that Marika actually has some sympathy for Malenia or doesn't really care about her either way which is why she leaves her alone, and that she doesn't direct you to kill Mohg so Miquella's plan is permacucked
>>486518169stop having autism
>>486518296Irrelevant and you know it. GRRM wasn't even involved with the DLC which is what established Melina as Messmer's sister.
>>486517626>>486517818>>486518296The pot people have White hairBlonde hairPinkish hairMelina got her hair color from the shamans and marika is a shaman.
>>486518169I refuse.
>>486518105I think that's a glintstone
>>486516752MA THERE'S A WEIRD FUCKING CAT OUTSIDE. IT LOOKS LIKE GRAMMA THE FUCKIN THING
>>486513645Way more fun to fight at low level than trying to low level Mohg and his blood shitspray all over the place just to access the niggering DLC.
Where did all the regular people in the eternal city go? its full of slimes
>>486518315She actually doesn't want you to kill messmer either
No, Ranni, you're the one with rotten traitor breath! You're the one who does depraved acts and rituals!!! I didn't turn my good boy scalie brother into a rotten fucking mermaid thing. So, what if I wanted to make you my sex doll. Is that so wrong!? By your own actions you've shown me I should take what I want. And I want you in a jar.

>>486517626My twin sister is a blonde despite our dad being a redhead and our mom being a brunette.>In b4 "ur mom cheated lol"DNA test confirmed we are his lol
>>486518585You're right, that adds to the "don't help Miquella in any way" angle that Marika seems to be going for.
>>486518628>>486518169You're wearing a mixed set in real life anon
>>486503573Ahhhhh that chomp where you jankily get pushed to the side when rolling it does seem familiar now that you mention it
>>486518769I'm naked
>"seduction and betrayal">Grandam calls her a strumpetMarika fucked her way up to the tower
>>486518315She doesn't mind if her kids replace her "Hear me, Demigods. My children beloved. Make of thyselves that which ye desire. Be it a Lord. Be it a God. But should ye fail to become aught at all, ye will be forsaken. Amounting only to sacrifices..."
>>486518865You would too if you looked like this
>>486518845Your dick is altered
>>486518958No I'd rape tarnished men alongside my haunted doll step daughter
>>486518865she was talking about marika using a mixed set
>>486519175Nobody ever said fucking her way up the tower was consensual.
>>486518902She directly guides you to kill Miquella who was literal steps away from becoming a God so I think she does mind, or at least she minds which of her children becomes one. She's fine with Ranni and I guess she doesn't expect Malenia to do all that much if she's left alone
>the first NPC you talk to is Varré who invites you to join Mohg>Freeing mohg is one of the most important things you do mid-to-late game >You literally finish the game by Avenging Mohg.>Bleed is the most overpowered bullshit affliction in the game so you're mechanically nudged to use it>INSANE drip It makes the most sense for Tarnished to be a mohg follower.
>>486518865miquella isn't the only one who can [HEART STOLEN]. radagon did that to rennala read her crown
>>486519492Blood for the Blood God.
>>486519492That's great and all, but where's your ending?
>>486519492>mixed set
>>486519357That's what I was getting at. She doesn't like miquella doing it but doesn't mind others. Likely came to the conclusion trina did about him desu
Given the chance...Would you have a puppet sex dungeon like Seluvis
When's the patch that fixes the radahn fight >T already beat him solo but still think the fight is lame and (very) gay
>>486519717id make myself the puppet
>>486519717no because that maens making people into puppets which is bad
>>48651972910 more weapon nerf patches coming right up
>>486516752Why no-one told Morgott about underwear?I mean, he was a king.He could afford a custom underwear with a tail-hole.
>>486519703Grace still points at you to kill Godrick, Radahn, Rykard, and Morgott.
>>486519717No because I'm not a rapist.
>Fighting Mohg on NG+>Okay, I managed to cheese Super Radahn with bleed antspur rapier but surely that same cheese platter won't work on other bosses>mfw Mohg suffers blood loss in the first minuteSeems a bit backwards for Mohg to be vulnerable to bleed buildup. Is the Formless Mother a cosmic masochist or something?
>>486519492The Sanguine Noble stuff would be perfect, actually best looking set in the game if it wasn't so top heavy. Take off the helmet it makes it look like you've got no neck, idk why the shoulders go up so high.
this video has been made perfect with one simple additionhttps://files.catbox.moe/okx3e6.mp4
>>486519749>These sisters, members of a cold-blooded race who wield flowing weapons, became puppets of their own volition.
>>486519175I still hate how miyazaki said marika rapes you if you marry her and ranni rapes you after the age of stars this feels like a fetish game
>When Japanese players read these messages, they see the specific kanji for the actual words, leading some to believe that they were hinting at a secret that would only occur at a fort at night.>"I've been searching for a big night-only event at some fort because I see messages like 'fort, night' everywhere in Elden Ring, but apparently people playing in English are Fort and Night. I'm crying because it seems like a message that I'm just laughing at making Fortnite by combining." >Another Japanese Twitter user asked "What's the hole and fingers?" in reference to the ten billion messages offering the tried-and-true sage advice, "Try finger, but hole." Another translator, Kevin Ishizaka, replied to explain that, "But hole looks like butt hole, so it says 'put your finger in that / your ass hole.'" >"So that's it! I do not understand!" replied another Japanese player, neatly summing up the feelings of everyone who's ever had to translate a niche reference.
>>486519717Yes. I would become a rapist.
>>486519492I liked mohg because i thought he was based unhinged rapist.Turns out he was cringe rape victim
>>486519717no, because i'm not a rapist and do not wish to be one
>>486519956"ye will be forsaken. Amounting only to sacrifices."Yeah they're shitters. They're the sacrifices as that's all they amounted to.
>>486519492>No Mohg ending Me sad
>>486520069he's still an unhinged murderer and leader of a murder cult that worships a murder god
lole
>>486520257lol
greatsword chads get in here
>>486520030the mixed set virgin vs the naked chad
>>486520257Explain this jew sorcery
>>486519717Absolutely, I would collect puppets like Pokemon cards.
>>486520008It's actually poetic that Mohg is weak to bleed. It shows why the Formless Mother was able to win him over into her service. Also if you think THAT'S weird, keep in mind you can fucking rot Malenia and Romina is immune to rot.
>>486520423PCucks cheating as usual dont give them attention
>>486520423look up chainsaw glitch tutorial, or just macro it if you're a pussy
>>486520493i dont even know how to macro
the way Type Bs run annoys me
>>486520234Nowhere does it say that the Formless Mother is a murder god. She craves wounds and cares not how they're inflicted, those on oneself are just as valid.
>>486520493You're a pussy if you do it either way
>>486519717yup all my puppets would be sticky.
>>486520352Did you proc bleed in one fucking hit? Why did he take so much damage?
>>486520550I think its funny personally but I respect your opinion
>He doesn't have 60 Vigor>He isn't wearing defense talismans>He isn't using defense buffs>He isn't using shields>He isn't using opaline hardtear or deflecting hardtear>He thinks Faith is bad>He goes online and complains about everything dealing too much damage and about how he dies in two hits>He is not a strawman that I made up in my head just for the sake of this postExplain yourself
>>486519956>>486520193Yeah reading her quotes she seems like a "survival of the fittest" kind of person like godfrey was. But I think she points us to ranni for another reason, the dlc hammers home that godhood is a prison, it fucking sucks, a living hell that miquella's other self wanted to save him from. Ranni in her ending becomes a god then goes to space unable to be reached by anyone. So she'd essentially eternally suffer in the cold of space, most of her friends and family gone, only you there with her, but still isolated. Its essentially eternal damnation of her own doing. I think that's why marika doesn't mind her taking up the reigns, she gets to die and rest, the woman who killed her son gets to suffer for eternity.
>>486520752>>He goes online and complains about everything dealing too much damage and about how he dies in two hitsthis but unironically. niggas be ignoring half the mechanics of the game then go online and saltpost
>>486520752T.

>>486520869This ignores her own dialog and the other half of what we see of her actions to fit your own headcanon of her. This conversation will go nowhere let's agree to disagree else we'll end up like those two spergs who were arguing about rennala for 7 hours straight yesterday.

I just want to shove people into jars it sounds like a fun hobby
>>486520468Malenia is cursed with rot. Romina has embraced it.
I bet the hornsent found it pretty jarring when their master plan went to pot.
>>486521014In the base game, briefly to bleed builds, but now we have the Blood Chicken Wing and Strengthdomination is back on top.
>>486520752>>He doesn't have 60 VigorGot it.>>He isn't wearing defense talismansGot it (in PvE anyway)>>He isn't using defense buffsGot it>>He isn't using shieldsDon't need it, simple as>>He isn't using opaline hardtear or deflecting hardtearI use Opaline, don't need Deflecting.>>He thinks Faith is badNope literally playing a FTH hybrid>>He goes online and complains about everything dealing too much damage and about how he dies in two hitsI do feel like the damage in PVE is over the top honestly. The buffs and tools take care of it absolutely, but I wish going "full offense" was a possibility without getting 1-2 shot. In my opinion the DLC bosses and mobs should do less damage but have more health.>>He is not a strawman that I made up in my head just for the sake of this postNah I get it.
Ranni remained a virgin for several thousand years before marrying me, right?
>>486521215>mixed set>omg guys look at my le face! why do attacks do so much damage tho?lmfao
>>486520468That makes perfect sense though, while Malenia is in her rot goddess form she still hasn't become a true goddess and fully embraced it, she's just one step closer. I assume Romina would be somewhat similar to how Malenia would look as a goddess where she would regrow her missing skin and her limbs would grow back only all rotlike.
>>486521014>>486521180Reminder that the two-handed talisman doesn't work on ashes and other builds can use it too to just as much effect considering anything not using a shield or powerstancing should be two-handing anyway for more poise damage.
>>486520057Japanese are so cute and adorable I wanna hug them and pat their heads
>>486521014Easymode just got easier.
>>486521286She definitely gave Blaidd handjobs but never let him do anything beyond that. Seluvis got nothing (watched secretly). Iji was not interested.
>>486521286>ranni who surrounds herself with wolves, wolfmen, a giant, a dragon, and a sex offenderyes
>>486521007That was so fucking funny. Does that normally happen here? Lore arguments that cross multiple threads and hours? I slept halfway through and 7 hours later they were still at it
>>486520468>you can fucking rot MaleniaI just assumed the Tarnished was accelerating the damage the rot was already doing to her body.
>>486521309I never said that though? Also my resistances are fine. ~40% in everything physical WITHOUT buffs or skibidi. With them? Like 80%.
Fuckin level design/art direction is immaculate in the DLC, Really nailed it.
bros is lies of P actually good or is it slop like lords of the fallen
>>486521331You don't need ashes with the chicken wing, for whatever insane reason the blood splash puddle is baked right into the R2. Talisman does work with it.
>>486519717Only fom consenting grandmas on their deathbed
>>486521496its slop like elden ring
>>486521496It's slop. People who claim otherwise are just gay men or fujos who want to fuck the Korean boyband looking protag.
Does Shabriri's Woe actually work at all if you want to be a tank in co-op?
>>486520617He took 341 damage from the Fire Knight's fireball jutsu, and the bleed greatsword did the rest.It procs bleed in roughly two-three hits most of the time. Surprisingly, hardly anyone in invasions uses the red boluses to negate it. It takes everyone by surprise.
>>486521496It's the only Soulslike rip-off that honors the source material. It's a little bit closer to Bloodborne than Dark Souls. Way better than Slop of the Fallen. If you have already played all the other official Souls games I would encourage you to pick it up.
What's your favorite type of magic in Elden Ring and why? For me it's Gravity magic. I like purple and the space theme is cool.
>>486521668What the hell
>>486521661>Slop of the FallenJesus christ what a disappointment that was. It had promise, but they not only dropped the ball, they chucked it on top of the roof of the tallest building in the neighbourhood owned by the meanest son of a bitch who'd never let them climb up to get it back.
>>486521668Dragon Communion. Coolest lore and it's edgy as shit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvIPt-WPB-Uplease no, i don't want to reinstall the game for the 5th time
>>486521668Type B moment.
>>486521496I enjoyed it, but I like edgy fairy tale shit in addition to from games so I'm biased. >captcha
Did anyone try out Dark Souls 3 Archstones
why is Leda talking in third person here?
>>486521632>Surprisingly, hardly anyone in invasions uses the red boluses to negate it.Because 99.9% of the people you're invading are PvEers who spend their runes on level ups, smithing stones, and ammunition. Why would they buy a stack of expensive ass bolluses? The vast majority of them probably haven't even gotten the medicine bell bearing.
>>486522005she's autistic
>>486521496>slop like lords of the fallenEven worse.It's knockoff bloodborne slop.
>>486521629It does work but not how people thinkImagine you start at 0 aggro, and hitting an enemy brings you to 1 aggro and then it chases you until your friend hits it and then they're switched to 1 aggro and you trade back and forth.Wearing this makes you start at 1, so if no one has attacked the enemy they will come after you. However, someone hitting the boss will still spike their own aggro and can pull it to them. This lets you generate more aggro than normal when you attack. It's easy to keep the aggro on you if you spam a few throwing daggers (whereas normally they would not do enough "pull" to peel them off a retarded host who hit the enemy).Usually not worth the slot - I prefer using Lightning Bolt for drawing aggro at a distance and fast.
>>486522005She's being chuunibyou
>>486519357>>486519703>>486519956>>486520753>>486520869>>486521007Marika realized ranni was a stinky unmarried NEET who just sat in her tower all day. Marika realized the knight of blacknives wasn't just ranni attempting to free herself of the fingers but also her chomping out over being an unmarried hag so if the tarnished finds ranni she leads you along her questline, so you can marry her and do the age of stars. Yeah marika dies but her only other living daughter stops being a loser, leaves the house, gets married, and does her own thing. She's just a nice step mother.
>>486521668Dragon CultI just love throwing lightning spears to kill dragons man
>>486521496it unironically has soulgood parry combat and beautiful charactersonly downside is the level design, it looks good but can get boring with the city streets
>>486521668bloodflame stuff. The vibe of cosmic horror edgelord sorcery is right up my alley. Shame they're so utter poopie.
>>486522205Amazing how much better this is than Giantsflame Take Thee despite only needing one memory slot. Best incant in the game.
>>486522072I see. Better to just stick close to the boss and keep hitting it for me then, I think.
>>486513585He just announced on stream (like right now 2024-07-18) he's indie-developing a game that's gonna be souls-like and he said it would definitely be better PvP-wise.Also he banned someone from saying the opponent was good while he got outplayed. He's just salty.
>>486520061>>486520445>>486520597This is why you're maidenless.
>>486521780I tried this but I got fucking filtered trying to do the stunlock tech. Ended up killing Greyroll and grabbing a bunch of Runes and power leveling myself to 85 instead and using Great Star + Stormcaller to jew him.
>>486520193So does that mean she was okay with Malenia being around for the new age the Tarnished/Godfrey would bring?
>>486495939Yeah, seamless co-op is basically a ticking time bomb. I give it a month before it's ruined for one reason or another.
>>486513765How do you know he's asian or french-canadian? btw i heard he wants to do a souls like, is this guy Phil Fish #2?
>>486522262Bloodflame talons can be good in pve (guaranteed bleed in 3 swipes + good damage) and bloodboon is good for applying pressure in pvp.Ansbachs incant could've been really good if it wasn't bugged to shit
jeenine just cries and sighs every 2 seconds on his stream why does he even play
>>486522332Wow, women really do post here.
>godslayer greatsword is a pure white spiral swordgloam eye was the hornskins goddess and marika ganked her to become god with malekith her shadowy assassin gifted by metyror it wouldve been if they didnt butcher the story
>>486522393Most likely. She's pretty passive she doesn't do anything unless miquella asks. With miquella gone she'd just be in that chair rotting away. If she does bloom again she'd take the haligtree with her and die or would get shitstomped by tarnished or godfrey. She's a non threat
>>486522010The dlc throws runes at you like nothing. They should know better by this point, especially if they're summoning. Anyways, not everyone is a naive PVEr. Storeroom invasions are great because they also attract players that actually want to fight invaders. Tons of guys there are using TT for 2v2s (like the guy in the second webm).
>>486522496>nooooo my fanfiction
https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Weapons+Comparison+Tablesam i retarded or are all the scalings on this completely wrong?

>>486522162a 35 year old porn addict neet wrote this. sad, just sad
>>486522547>The dlc throws runes at you like nothing...Which again, PvEers are going to spend on leveling up. Only PvPers throttle their leveling.

>>486522757LMFAO based
>>486522162So marika's just wingmaning for you? What's up with all the wingmaning in this game Melina goes "go marry my mom"Godfrey goes "go marry my wife"Marika goes "come marry me or doll daughter"Blaidd and iji go "go marry our master"Malenia goes "radahn go marry our brother"
>>486522581ah nvm the scaling increases with upgrade levels, it shows the max it can reach
I like chase the bro.He never gets mad and always has fun.He'd see shit like this >>486514003 and just appreciate the spectactle instead of getting butthurt
>>486522757I love these posts but please record new webms. You've started just posting the same ones over and over which is very disappointing and stale.
>>486522652Making your own fashion by mixing sets is the best part. Trying to make something look like not-shit is the challenge.
>>486522675He's ol' reliable, but as far as his stream goes it's not comfy because he always loudly pops off for donations and subscriptions. I prefer Saint, except he moved out of the broom closet where he used to stream and now you can constantly hear his wife and dogs yapping in the background.I'm watching Oro watch top 10 invasion submissions, and it's crazy how many invaders have the full suite of horn shield, uplifting aromatics, exalted flesh, etc. ready.
>>486522864Fuck chase. Disingenuous fag cuts all the losses out of his weapon showcase videos which paints a very poor picture of viability. Like yeah dude I'm not surprised you were able to win 5 invasions with a fucking flail, what I want to know is how many losses you took getting those wins.
Alright I'm gonna stop putting off my homework now. Considering re-installing Elden Ring. Maybe. Have this as a gift.
>>486522864I'm summoning the Chase hater
>>486523093I want waffles or pancakes so fucking bad right now this sucks.
I finally beat Radahn. It took 167 tries.For difficulty contrast, I hadn't actually beaten Elden Ring. Before the DLC the furthest I got was Maliketh, and then I did Malenia and Mogh just before the DLC, Malenia took 400 tries, Mogh like 30ish - most normal new bosses take me about 30 or 40 tries, I'm not good at FS games. Went back to the base game to finally finish the ending for the first time. First tried Gideon (Okay, doesn't mean much), then first tried Godfrey, 2 tries to beat Radagon, and then first tried Elden Beast. It's not a joke how much slower they are and how much room to breathe they give you. I remember thinking Radagon looked like one of the more aggressive bosses but he's like a relaxing vacation compared to the DLC.
Queelign's Greatsword is underappreciated. New longest HTS and not a single video from a PvPtuber. Looks neat too
>>486522864It's all an act. He's figured he gets more views with false positivity. If you watch how he actually plays, he's just as cancer as jenny and that lot, hardswapping to blooming chest for heals, spamming millions of CE'd in consumables, etc etc etc.
Chase the Bruh
>>486521487>there are people who hate this placeI get that the enemies aren't that interesting, but it's still cool. Could've used a different-looking subsection to break it up visually, maybe.
>>486523171orphans still the last boss that took the longest for me. he was the most honest too
>>486522968>uplifting aromatics, exalted flesh, etcWow yeah most PC invaders are cheaters. Not sure why you're surprised.
what is the level rec for the dlc?i enjoy limgrave, magic lake and caelid but always quit around the magma castle and altuswhen standard enemies suddenly have hp and dmg like a goddamn boss fight it's not fun anymoreworried that everything in the dlc is like that
>>486523353I started at 125 and felt completely fine, but 150 is moreso the recommended starting point
>>486523275they shouldve been oozing putrescence
>>486520752Casuals need the funny loud man on YouTube to tell them what's epically OP, otherwise they'll never actually engage with the mechanics of the game they paid $60 for and then complain that it's the game's fault.https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=elden+ring+defense+op
>>486513585Jeenine spits on other people's way of playing btu hes pveing messmer, only blocking and poking with a poison infused weapon behind a shield
>>486523198Because there's no reason to use any HTS besides the Sword Lance right now. Queelign's is long sure, but it does nothing special aside from that. The Sword Lance has better scaling (leans towards STR as opposed to DEX, a better stat as it gives physical defenses), gets UGS equivalent status build-up on blood infusion, and has fucking lance R2s. It's so far above every other HTS it's not even funny. Once it's inevitably nerfed, then people will look at that one.
>>486523427i think 150 is miyazaki being generous for the shitters. he doesn't want them to come in too low for them based on what he said. as long as you have 55+ vig you're good
>>486523353>worried that everything in the dlc is like thatif it takes that little to bother you then yes the whole dlc is like that
I wear the pot helmet and then when I beat a boss I imagine everyone drawing fan art of my character and telling me im the coolest guy to ever live
>>486523598Reminder that the base game was finished by the vast majority of the population at around 150. This is where the 150 recommendation comes from.
>>486523598Thats true. FromSoft also recommends you summon other players to beat the boss for you. 50-60 vig and nearing the soft cap for y our main attack stat should be good enough
>>486523275It's the kind of place that causes me irrational frustration because I want more. If that zone had contained a whole necropolis with as much history and complexity as Shulva, I would have been over the goddamn moon with excitement. I fucking love spelunking ancient fictional cities and feeling Elden Indiana Jones.
>>486523326Because I'm too honest, and my invasions represent 95% of invasions I see>>486523353Anywhere from 80 to 150, scadutree blessings make more of a difference than leveling, but you want 50-60 VIG going into it for your sanity.>>486523538There's not really a word in the English language to describe how utterly repugnant Jee is.
im invading level 60 with no upgrades as an experiment and its exclusively the item dropper bracket
>>486523353RL150. You can go in lower or even higher of course but it's geared towards characters with 60 VIG and borderline cap in their primary damage stat which is going to bring you to about 150 anyway.
I'm not crazy, right, Carian Slicer comes out blazingly fast after any other attack?
okay fuck it, your horse torrent is just the other half of the spectral horse of the one miquella is riding just like radagon and trina. Whoever that torrent's former master that gave meli meli and ranni the bell and ring isn't mikey. The concept art where mikey is riding a spectral horse is just a red herring
>>486523819I just wanted to go inside the boats
>>486519357I have a theory this may sound stupid but I think it's based on their ultimate goals. Many of them have been warring for ages and just crave power or some fucked up way to enforce compassion for everyone. For ranni she just leaves and let's mankind do whatever, while that would invite chaos it would create an environment where the strong thrive which we know is what she and godfrey enjoyed. I think that's why she never points you directly to her but why she will point you along if you do her quest. Ranni is the only demigod with an alternative marika approves of. If it isn't her ruling again the next best option to replace her wouldn't be the rotted half corpse, or the mind manipulating shota, but the spooky doll who just fucks off. I don't think she outright supports her, but she's the demigod she's the most okay with taking over if that makes sense.
>>486521487yeah i think they easily blew every single one of their other games out of the water in that departmentits a shame the actual gameplay and the lore behind all this cool looking shit is serviceable at best though
>>486523869kek. did you win?
Are the 3 fingers evil
What's everybody's favorite PvE builds? It may sound dumb but mine is just a straight sword with square off. Good poise damage with square off and I still have fast hits to mix between enemy combos. Feels nice and varied.
If you invade on PCYou didn't beat the host
>invades pvpers just having funugh this is so cancer>hard swaps to his 7th copy of a weapon for a different ashthese guys are such scrubs man>pops cheated consumablethis game is so trash man>runs away for 20 minutes just to roll catch a first time pvper to deathim going to make my own souls pvp game
Okay, whoever posted up in full Malenia getup in front of Messmer with the name "I can fix him", that was actually kind of funny.
>>486523982Would you have been angrier if you had found one Pinwheel or 500 Pinwheels inside an open sarcophagus?
>>486522864I stopped being fanboy when I saw his 99 siegbreu and when I beat him on stream with dual clayman spears
Wow! You're telling me that instead of dodging, I can take half of an attacks damage in order to shoot a reaction-rollable projectile? I love the shield of night!>uh but uh it works if you drink the one particular physic from the sparkling regions of wherever for a limited timeWhy didn't they just build perfect blocking into the shield?
>>486524169yes i won 8/10 but im tired of the fullgoat lightrolling phantoms that i can only ticklemost ar i can stack is like 400 and ashes do no damage pretty much
>>486523353The real answer is whatever the fuck you finish Radagon and Malenia at. If you're using the runes you get from main bosses theres no way youre gonna be less than 120 at that point, at which point you are totally safe to jump in. No need to go farm higher "just in case" or worry about overleveling. Its pretty hard to overlevel with how much the rune requirements ramp up.
>>486524232Honestly I've tried so many but the best and most enjoyable PvE builds in my opinion are hybrid ones featuring a big ass poise breaking weapon. You get spells for ranged and AOE with absurd melee damage plus crazy easy poise breaks for crits or charging big ass spells. Most fun too since you can constantly change shit up between melee and spellcasting.
Is it okay if I like both ranni and marika? That I have two dedicated tarnished who I write shitty little fanfics of them being with marika and ranni respectively
>>486524232Heavy ArmorGreatshieldColossal weaponVIG, STR and ENDChad build and its fun
If you put "parry" on your buckler does it give you the small shield parry frames
>>486523928Yea it's fucking broken
>>486524458Silence, coomer.
>>486524232i struggled to switch off claymore with an offstock. usually lightning slash or flaming strikei really like milady but the poise damage is too shit
If tarnished is a descendant of horah loux doesn't that make nepheli and godrick their cousins? I feel like at that point every major character is just related and it's like star wars where it's just one big fucked up family ruining the setting with their drama
I thought Taylew was supposed to be good? What the hell is this? +9 btw.
>>486524232Now that we have great katanas, Samurai are very fun. I use the Uchi, wakizashi, great katana, the cross naginata and a long bow. All these weapons can change their ash which makes it so fun. The white Reed set with any mask looks good too.
>>486524720Only the hero origin is potentially a descendant of Godfrey. But yes, assuming they are that makes Nepheli, Godrick, Godwyn, Mohg, and Morgott your family. Likely very distant family, but family.
>>486524738oof what the fuck. same, I thought he was supposed to be some crazy ass unkillable spirit. summon "chads" being disingenuous as usual
>>486524720yes, ranni is a distant cousin
How many spells do people usually have memorized at once? I never made sense of how to organize this shit properly so it's actually usable in combat
>>486524636I don't write a lot of sex fanfics it's actually mostly cute dates. Ranni and tarnished exploring the stars or marika and tarnished going around the lands between the tarnished explaining to her all of his allies alive and fallen and their stories while she does the same. I'm a romance and slice of life kinda guy
>>486524837I fill all 10 memory slots on all my builds, but I only equip spells I genuinely use. Don't just fill slots for the sake of it, equip shit you are familiar with and want.
>>486524824Is she? She shouldn't really be related to tarnished neither should marika considering the tarnished would be a descendant of horah loux likely sometime after he was banished so not a kid of marika, and horah doesn't seem related to radagon or rennala unless horah somehow descends from the mountain astrologers rennala descends from.
>>486524850That sounds utterly pathetic. I will hear no more of this.
>>486524293kek
>>486524837>long range spell>nuke spell>body buff>weapon buffThat's all I care to equip when I'm serious
>>486524837i dont play casters so at most i have 4bestial vitality, flame cleanse me, flame grant me strength and bloodflame bladein that order
>>486524824That's not how that works. Your dad's ex wife having a husband who has his own kids doesn't make you related to those kids. Not even fucking close. Even if she DOES fuse together with him. And this is assuming you're Godfrey's DIRECT offspring, which you surely aren't.>>486524972No, she is not.
>>486524816I'll try him out against some other enemies. So far, not impressed
Marika doesn't fucking fuse with Radagon. She always was Radagon you midwit.
>>486521668>Best defensive buff>Best projectile>Best CC>Fun, but Worst weapon buffI stand for my Queen
>>486525095It's hero you're said to be a descendant of horah and that's only hinted. If you are his descendant it would likely be as distant as godrick would be just some branch off to the side no one cares about. Yeah you're his rapebaby or something but its not as direct as nepheli
>>486525187so what youre saying shes always been a mixed set shitter
>>486523543I agree mostly but the loss of the HTS running R2 for the much laggier, shorter, and more situational Lance running R2 is pretty awful.Pretty sure the scaling for the status is a bug, or unintended, so I don't count that as a long-term plus since like you said it'll be nerfed.A side effect of Lance R2s is the guard counter is actually usable, which is great! But you can no longer feint the R2s, which I really love doing with HTSs, so that's sad.
>>486524738>>486524816>>486525142Summons do poorly against enemies that do %-damage, like the godskins' blackflame.
>>486525187Even assuming she WAS always Radagon (which is up for debate) that still wouldn't make you related to Ranni you fucking moron. You aren't related to your dad's ex-wife's kids he isn't the father of.
>>4864949628, without question
>>486524738>>486524816>>486525142>>486525362I did about 1/3 of the healthbar here, but he did a little better against this gargoyle, probably because of the strike damage.
>>486521668Dragon cult, even though it being seperate and completely different from dragon communion is a bit strangeLightning is cool, and flavored lightning is even cooler
>>486525530Forgot the pic, oops.
>>486523543>>486525351Also you mentioned dex but Queelign's specifically is tailored towards pure Fai, which is nice because your spells are now gassed
I think the entire they advertise GRRM on board was so they can explicitly add the words "Fuck", "Tits" and "Whore" to the game.Because for some reason they couldn't say swears before
>>486522652I see my mixed set drip has angered the local autismo
new>>486525857>>486525857>>486525857
An actual more accurate translation of the mosoleum demigods implies they're descendants of marika not her direct children. It seems like godwyn had a lot of fucking kids.
>>486525362Oh so half the bosses in the game? Cool.
>>4864949622 if I feel like sleeping all the way through4 if I want to stay awake and have fruitful conversations
>>486525874that looks awful
>>486498180post your fic please
I wish negatively appraising a message resulted in the host's instant death honestly.
>>486527210you should be able to invade them
My first decree as Elden Lord is to normalize Snake Marriage.
