Be real with me. What are the chances it'll get the nerf it desperately needs when the Tarnished edition comes out?>inb4 "just don't use it" if u don't like itOP gear makes games worse just by existing as an option, especially in games with a multiplayer element, and this shit is absurdly fucking stupidly strong compared to anything. Even colossal swords suck compared to it.
0%, at most they'll nix the few bugs and exploits still left in the game like infinite falling with the help of held incantations which can be used to cheese Mohg and Elden Beast
The only thing they need to fix is not being able to riposte mid-sized demihumans after a parry but I know you guys don't know how to parry anyway.
>>729496479The Tarny what?The fuck are you talking about?This game just came out.
>>729496826No point in parrying them as they're pretty weak anc can be easily beat up
>>729496559Fpbp
>>729496826Everyone know's how to parry with buckler.
>>729496479What features would "Tarnished Edition" need for you to get it, /v/bros?
>>729497316It would need to be free.
>>729497316I need it to be sub 10 fps. It needs to be the definitive ultra difficulty experience fighting a single digit framerate in perfect synergy with ER's delayed attack timings.
I glitched into Lyndell early into the game and grabbed the Bolt of Sex and 50 hours later I'm kinda regretting itJust holding L2 destroying everything from a distant made the game kinda boring
Agreed.
>>729497316whole new continent
>>729496479>OP gearThere is literally no "OP gear" in this game when you take what it throws at you into consideration.Apparently this fandom consists of buck broken people who were well-trained to feel guilty for using anything except le cuck claymore and roll button, but I think that devs are not aware of this, they've just balanced the game around all that gear being available to the player.
>>729499713Ask how I know you didn't play the game
>>729496479I used it on my playthrough and it amazing vs hordes of enemies but just ok on bosses (the only thing that matters)What was I doing wrong?
>>729499845>Play the game>Game is full of obscene enemies that jump 100 meters back and forth while spamming ranged attacks, cast bullshit area denial, do instagib grabs, etc, etc>Find a bullshit of my own to fuck them into the ground like no tomorrow>NOOO YOU CAN'T DO THAT IT'S OP YOU MUST PLAY WITH ETHICAL SWORD AND BOARD BUILD LIKE A GOOD KEK OR YOU DIDN'T BEAT LE GAMEI swear souls fandom is the most putrid and diseased hole of morbid low-functioning autism inbreeding with itself on the whole internet.
>>729500428If you need to cheese then the game isn't made for you and that's alright. You don't have to force yourself to play a game just because it's popular.
>>729500428they are underage timmies or transdads who think themselves god gamers for playing the slow roll slop and completing a couple of memory games
>>729499930Apparently not hitting the bosses. It does absurd levels of damage relative to the boss health bars at a low cost and with no downsides whatsoever otherwise, but that being said it isn't too overpowered compared to all the other absurd things you can do with every build easily. It specifically doesn't need a nerf unless you're going to broadly nerf a fuckton of things.
>>729496559Such smugness...
>>729500574There is no "cheese", which you're aware yourself because you can't give a strict unambiguous definition for what counts as "cheese" lmfao. Literally all content in the game is dev-intended because why would it be put there otherwise?. Moreover, there were multiple balance passes since the game's release, and some things which turned out to be too busted were tuned down by devs, so by now it is clear that everything works withing intended ranges.Everything else that you have to say on this has no actual relation to the game and exist only in your rotten brain.
Thinking about starting a replay, what's the all round most fun and immersive build you can play?
>>729500969Play a gypsy woman with no regular weapons, only perfume bottles and gimmicky faith spells that could pass as parlor tricks.
>>729501291lol is that even doable on a pure new game?
>>729501347Yeah, but you have to not really care about certain quests since beating Mohg might skip some stuff (i don't remember). You can use faith spells and wraith calling bell to do Varre's questline, or really any easy to get strong weapon against Mohg since you can just drop it afterwards. Then once you're in SOTE all you have to do is avoid the trigger points for the main quest there and you can go grab a bunch of items like the first perfume bottle, dancer robes, etc. If you're not good enough to beat Mohg at low levels, you can just summon for his fight.
>>729497316Just balance the fucking weapons a little more. Make it so that I'm not actively gimping myself with 98% of the weapons because of the last 2% being insane.
That just means nerfing the 2% because you can already wreck shit with the vast majority of the weapons in this game. This isn't dark souls 3.
>>729503012You can't, there's always going to be a top 2% (realistically it is way higher) that completely outclasses the other 98%. Even if you completely nerf that 2% into being genuinely useless all it would do is create a new highest tier of other weapons that you'd be gimping yourself to not use.The best you can do is make everything close enough to the same level of strength that the player accepts the difference, whether by nerfing or buffing.
>>729503237I know there's always gonna be a "best" and balance can't be perfect, but it can be a HELL of a lot fucking better than it is just by adjust a few weapons that go way, way over being "slightly" better.
I love the Bloodhound Fang
>>729496479They're done with ER they're never nerfing itAlso it got nerfed before, the knock back got removed and the damage was lowered and then they added the talisman of the dread which just boosts its damage even further
>>729500969Str/fth is the best way to experience elden ring Also thematically fits as the counterpart to ranni with her ending
>>729503349Personally I think they did a pretty good job at that, there's nothing in the game that is unusable (reasonably so) aside from maybe the meme weapons. There's not a massive disparity between basic attacks outside of PVP, and you'd be hard pressed to find an Ash of War that isn't at least good. Every single build archetype has strong weapons or spells too. Ofcourse there are outliers, but obviously stuff like the Polearm of the Bud which is shit because of animations and Basic Dagger or Torchpole aren't ever going to be up to par.
Another day of STR players crying for everything else to be nerfed while they jump attack stunlock spam everything to death
