Yep. I appreciate mundane characters and garb. There is a beauty in the mundane. But when you deal with fantasy sometimes fit specimens will be exaggerated or are larger than life. Thus they are not commonly seen IRL.
However, if you simply see the sexual elements and reorient your mind, you can simply look and appreciate without masturbating and it still exists. Like looking at naked statues/paintings in a museum.

Is ever dark a paid expansion or a free upgrade? Because buying an expansion for an expansion is kind of weird to me.
>>
>>739786426
The paid expansion is for Balancers and Dreglord, of which only the Balancers have an everdark form.
Nightreign isn't an expansion on Elden Ring; it does not require Elden Ring to play.
>>
>>739786426
everdarks are just stronger versions of the bosses, not an expansion

I did and made it all the way to Depth 5 9999. Was pleasantly surprised by how fun it was despite my initial skepticism when it was first announced.
>>
>>739786119
Yup. Rarely I meet someone good playing as him but mostly it's just someone doing zero damage and essentially turning the game into duos with trio scaling. Revenants are a close second, maybe I'll dodge those, too.
>>
>>739775752
sorry but the only fun in soulsbornrings is in killing other players and inconveniencing them. not being able to do that is a deal breaker.
>>
>>739787083
Revenants have mostly figured out that they need the "initial seal gets Beast Claw" line by this point, and if they have that, they're as good as any Recluse.
>>
>>739775752
I already did all quests, killed all bosses, and got to D5, there's unironically nothing more to do.
The only way I'd play again is if they buffed shit-tier characters like Guardian and Raider so they're finally playable in the Depths.

If you were playing before Forsaken Hollows, it was indeed a meme.
After 1.02 added the Rev strength line, she actually can go in and hit stuff with absurdly high STR, but nobody does that anymore. Beast Claw is enough to carry the game.

I wish there was a way to keep playing Depth 5 without losing your rank, like a permanent save state you can make. I want to get back to this because I had a lot of fun playing it, but I remember the absolute hell that was Depth 3 and 4 and I never want to go back to that again

It's higher than Guardian and a small step behind Wylder. Good enough to use heavy weapons.

I used to but I wasn’t an original and I didn’t feel like I belonged. Also the schizoposting was too much

I try to play this game as often as possible. It's fun. Scholar is interesting and different. Recluse is cool. Ironeye is fun as fuck. I wish I was good at Guardian. I haven't tried Executor in the 300+ hours I put in (rookie I know). Wylder is ho hum John Nightreign, I'll try him eventually. Duchess can be fun. I don't play Raider, but eventually I'll do a jump attack build with him. I wish Revenant's summons did more unless I'm missing something.

Some mega faggot executor named genichiro was being a loot ninja and stole a purple staff from me while i was looking at it.

So i refused to play. I would not attack enemies. I just stood by him. If he got downed i would hit until he was one hit away from a revive and then stand there. He left but i played solo well into night 2 where i finally died so he either had to rejoin, eat the penalty for not rejoining a match, or wait out my game which was far longer than the 15 minute penalty.

Suck my dick you loot ninja faggot.

That's true. Hopefully one day it can recover though I doubt it since in my experience it takes literal years to prune off the schizos and dedicated shitposters and I don't think the 9999 "muh win streak" sweatstinkies are going to be playing for that long

They're girls that got gifted weapons(presumably by the Formless Mother). The weapons basically possess and puppeteer their bodies. Because they have flower imagery and blend together into a big sandworm like the jar saints some people think they're part of the same shaman tribe as Marika. I think the Formless Mother stuff is clearly ad hoc and the skeleton crew making updates only came up with that idea when they were told to make their everdark version, but the lore is a mess anyways who cares.
>>

queue with randoms instead. Its perfectly great, at least before high Deep of Night
Most of the fun from playing solo will come if you already played with randoms before.

Lots of things are very likely to happen if you jump immediatelly into it solo
>you cant fight enemies with anywhere as much confidence, safety, speed or carefree-ness, specially lacking nightreign-specific experience
>you will just be confused and unfocused when you dont know where to go, instead of having two other retards ready to call out a wise insightful decision and rush there together
>instead of having 3 people generating weapons and giving eachother weapons and having varied preferences, loot will be a lot less one-note
>if you end up going towards an enemy youre undergeared against, dying repeatedly against them will be extremely unpleasant and unproductive
>small skirmishes might turn into huge chores if youre not able to take them down fast and swiftly with a good setup
>fancy consumables and tools might be tougher to use
>experimenting with unusual weapons/ashes will feel less comfortable
and ultimately solo will be alot more fun if you do it after having great experiences in coop. I did my first two nightlords coop with randoms, after just feeling lost and shitty when playing singleplayer. Immediatelly after i tried to solo Libra and that turned out way better and i had an amazing run

pubs are mostly playable, especially at this point in the game's life where most people have adapted to the loop instead of treating it like a normal souls game
solo is extremely brutal even with the little bonuses it gives you, i really don't recommend it for your first experience

>>739780103
You really couldn't make a sequel to elden ring just because there's many different endings, that all make a different impact on the world. Whereas with dark souls 1, the endings both just led to the primordial serpents staying in charge, much like voting for one jewish puppet or another in real life.

The initial learning curve is a bit of a pain so I wouldn't recommend it to start but its mostly fine. Outside of Depth of night I think you won't really run into issues once you learn how to route and get a general idea of how to fight each nightlord but getting past that initial hurdle is a huge pain in the ass thats easier to deal with pubs

Yeah in my experience as long it's not specific nightlords that require all 3 members to be competent at, you can really carry with just good routing. Try to get easy powerspikes early, clear the castle day 1, spend day 2 on roof boss if it's not cleared yet and every red formidable you can.

I bounced off this game super hard. What i liked about dark souls was the exploration and relatively slow pace.

Not really, that and the OP image is just a boss that has a connection to them. In fact, that there even is a connection at all is not explicit.

Not sure about DoN but even factoring in the ED variants of bosses there's only really two I'd say were a pain to solo. ED dogs and libra for much of the same reason of having a gankphase built into their fight. Every other gank boss including balancers tends to be nice to solos since they'll usually have 1 aggressive enemy at a time with the others being much less aggressive unless you get close. For whatever reason ED dogs and ED libra don't give you that same courtesy

Is either of the Scarlet Hollows (or whatever its called) new classes viable for solo? Reading their abilities it sounds like theyre both useless unless you have teammates :/

Which is a shame since the nun looks very rapeable
>>
>>739807654
Both of the DLC classes are perfectly viable for solo. You may need relics to unlock Scholar's full potential as he only has good arcane scaling for damage at base kit. You can also proc Undertaker's passive by dodging enemy grabs.

>>739807654
Not sure about scholar but from what I recalled I had a great time player undertaker solo. Outside of DoN and ED bosses she can generally win trades and her unique moveset is pretty good. Not getting the free ult from other people ulting sucks but its not really the end of the world to lose that part since it also triggers from dodging grabs. She's a very smooth class to play with a preferred weapon thats both fastish and strongish, probably the 2nd or 3rd easiest of the melee characters to play solo

1 is Wylder by a longshot

2 is kinda the debatable spot. Personally I see UT as number 2 since outside of DoN she can unga bunga with the best of them but I can easily see someone argue duchess or executor take the spot depending on their style. Granted I'm biased towards executor since I was dumb enough to cursed sword only my way through all nightlords/ED versions and I never really clicked with Duchess so I might be over/under selling them.

That said solo actually hurts the casters more than the melee cast and ironeye. I played a FTH caster in ER even beat PCR but in nightreign playing any of the melees just feels so much better solo than recluse

The only thing keeping me going is the urge to get to d5 with randos and the endorphin hit from rolling good relics. If I just cheated relics I'd lose interest almost immediately. About the only way I'd cheat is probably giving myself 10k soverign sigils so I could just roll the gacha for relics. Cheating the relics directly is boring.

True. I'm glad they added a cool bird dude, makes me wonder what other weird beast races are in-universe. On a side note, I'm not someone that wants a direct sequel to Elden Ring, but I think it's a shame they're probably not going to expand on the universe in other ways. I see the makings of a cool world with high fantasy esoteric concepts that honestly wasn't truly realized even within ER.

>Some boss fights like everdark libra, caligo and the wolfs are incredibly bullshit because of their mechanics or wonky ass hitboxes
hitboxes aren't the reason you get 1shot in those. madness will rape you on libra but his hitboxes are very fair. caligo's hitboxes (mostly just the ambiguous ass breaths) suck but her shit hitboxes are only single hits that negation passives will stop from 1shotting. ED dog is tough cos there are definitely some angles where you can get raped by hitboxes, and he does a lot of damage, but you can still generally avoid 1shots with one decent negation passive.

Once you memorize where the spirit springs and trees are, it becomes far easier to navigate. Depending on where you start (top right my beloved) you can snowball incredibly quickly. Castles are filled with a fuckton of runes and treasures. Towers are a waste of time and the drop at the end is mid.
>>
>>739820106
It’s one of the best maps if you have a character with a spammable ult. You can look up a map that shows where the crystals are. They’re easy to spot once you learn where they spawn and eventually you’ll be able to break the gigacrystal before night 2. Also make sure to learn the sewer route under the fort, don’t ever bother with the castle, it takes too long and the reward at the top is worthless.
>>
>>739820106
What you want to do is the castle in the bottom right for the most part. Rush some of the map crystals, get the blessing, and immediately jump to the relic chest in the southern part of the castle. Move through it, killing all the little bosses along the way. This is the most important thing you can do in Great Hollow, and you want to do it at least by the start of day 2. Day 1 should be mostly hitting crystal points and killing what bosses you can find on the way to them.
>>
>>739820318
>>739820425
Its just not fun though. Fromsoft went in a completely opposite direction of the base game with the DLC. The Vanilla map is easy to navigate, easy to understand, easy to memorize, with not too much annoying bullshit to get in the way of your routing. The ease of the map gives way to the actual fun part of the game which is bosses and combat.

Fromsoft was like "Remember all the annoying fucking shit that everybody hates from our previous games like swamps, debuffs, duo bosses? We made an entire area as a tribute to that"

I dont even feel like memorizing all the stupid bullshit thats not even marked on the map anymore. And don't get me started on the fucking final tree is always in that stupid tower and completely fucks you over if you are in a part of the map that makes it hard as fuck to go around the circle and get to it

>>739820763

Divine Towers are worth doing if your team is cracked, the second and third floors are guaranteed legendary weapon drops.

Start by following the blue lines, this isn't comprehensive and leaves out other routes I could explain but this should solve your day 1, hit whatever crystals you see when going along these lines, day 2 go to the castles after breaking what crystals you didn't.

Scholar is a wordly man, that's a form of scholarship. Really like him being a first gen albinauric that can actually walk.

>>
>>739835070
The new map is obnoxious to move around on in some parts and you don't get to go to the cool areas since the circle cuts them off almost immediately. It's also way too easy to jump into the death pits since the in-game map doesn't make it clear where they are.
On top of that, it adds in some enemies from the Elden Ring DLC that are just not at all fun to fight (horned warriors for one example)

Base dogs are harder than most of the other bosses in the game, and Everdark Dogs are in the top 3 for hardest. Everdark Libra is the only one where people will actively swap to different characters when fighting, though. Like Wylder and Executor mains will just instantly go Iron Eye or even Revenant because the Wylder summons are fucking annoying and Executor isn’t good against ganks.

If I remember correctly, the R2 combos on some weapons trigger successive attack bonuses faster like fists or her special hammer moveset so it's better to use those. Regardless, she can't really do anything else but spam R1/R2/ult because of her low FP. The only exception is if you're playing a hybrid physical/incantation build and get a decent seal with Bestial Incantations because those spells are so FP efficient.

if you don't want to get 1shot, then the solution is to pick up some negation. that's the answer the game provides and expects you to figure out. they're in the game for a reason. they're overkill in the normal difficulty but they're crucial in higher depths. the filter of depths is ultimately just whether or not yoou as a player can adapt to the higher numbers and mind the passives you mostly ignored before depths.

how do i build wylder bros
t. newbie
alternatively, the nun
>>
>>739850795
Wylder: Be absolutely relentless in using your ultimate. Just open the fight with your ultimate if you have it. The immediate stagger damage will open a window from all three players to shorten the length of the battle significantly. The best damage is the damage you never take, and staggered bosses don't do damage.
Guardian: You should probably just not be playing Guardian. But if you must, you NEED extended character skill duration. Any light enemy can be bullied by it.
Duchess: Once again, be relentless in using your ultimate. Invisible heroes are attacked far less often, and bosses doing nothing are free targets.
Ironeye: For the love of god, get +1 character skill. It's free dodges.
Raider: Raider is so bluntly straightforward I don't know what to say other than the obvious. Use your skill as a strategic block, use heavy attacks to stagger bosses because that's your one and only job.
Recluse: YOU'RE ALLOWED TO USE INCANTATIONS IF YOU FIND GOOD ONES. Recluse throwing giant rocks may look silly as shit, but her Faith is extremely high.
Revenant: Your default claw has some of the highest revive damage in the game. It's a very good thing to hold onto for that reason alone, until you absolutely must part with it. If you don't have a Starting Weapon has Beast Claw Invocation, you need it.
Executor: git fucking gud if you want to play parryman
Scholar: Don't play Scholar, it's really not worth it. If you simply must, get starting weapon inflicts Frost so you at least help out.
Undertaker: Despite her default weapon type, you should probably not use hammers. Switch to colossal or great weapons if you can.
>>
>>739853353
Double balancers and colossal sword.
Of course, if you're new, you won't have double balancers.
If you're too new, what "builds" can you even make? Try to get increased attack from evergaols and/or night invaders and make sure to do at least two.

It’s kinda useless against night invaders and the hardest part of a DoN run is the early game invader kill, especially in those swamp forts, so every guardian I see just uses the regular one because it lifts the invader up and you wanna kill those fuckers ASAP.
Also for Wylder, you should be way more liberal in using the uncharged ult if you have undertakers on your team. If I have two undertakers, I never ever use the charged ult as Wylder because it drains less of the meter.

>t’s kinda useless against night invaders and the hardest part of a DoN run is the early game invader kill, especially in those swamp forts, so every guardian I see just uses the regular one because it lifts the invader up and you wanna kill those fuckers ASAP.
wut? the extended duration stuns them so everyone can hit them for free, while the knockup gives them full invincibility until they stand back up.
>>
>>739854701
The extended duration causes them to dodge spam out of it and if it’s someone like duchess or iron eye , they’ll frame 1 onetap someone with daggers or mark.
>>
>>739854882
if they're dodge spamming then they can't roll attack, and you can still catch their roll recovery (much harder vs the duchess ofc). i'd say it's much better than the 1 attack you're getting from the knockup. matter of preference of course, but the goal is to kill them, delaying killing them by dealing 100 damage and making them invincible can tend to make it take longer when people know what they're doing.

The extended vs normal skill has some pretty big differences and use cases.
Normal: Charged can throw up most light enemies, plus it can interrupt larger ones like crucible knights or cavalry bosses, giving it a much wider use-case. Especially useful for interrupting Loretta whenever she's charging spells. It's also a lot more forceful and pulls any affected enemies towards the epicenter, making it very easy for others or yourself to line up big attacks. Uncharged can be used as a quick projectile parry for both protection and looking cool.

Extended: Absolutely bullies light enemies by pulling them around via stunlock. The constant whirlwind will deflect most projectiles, making it a very useful safezone for ranged allies against ranged bosses like the red wolf. Can also be used to supplement reviving someone past 1 bar as it deals constant damage, but not by itself unless the downed person has half a bar left.

Just off shop relics and story relics, double balancers + earring works with his base goblet. Get that earring as soon as you can honestly. Earring + either augur relic also work.
For buffs in base game, evergaol is an easy equip.
For DoN, you replace evergaols with night invaders
Defeating Enemies Restores Ult is huge on Wylder, Raider, Undertaker, and Ironeye. As much Phys2 as you can without removing gaols/invaders. Taking Attacks Improves Power and Partial HP Regen are good mostly in basegame, though you can still get some juice out of Partial Regen in DoN.
There's a signboard relic once you beat an everdark as scholar or undertaker that has both partial regen and enemy ult charge iirc. the first line on it is an undertaker skill but its still very useable on wylder
>>
They need to reduce balancers appearance rate and buff the great hollows appearance rate in DoN. I'm so tired of that boring ass gank fight. It's not even hard at this point just extremely tedious due to health bar gating in both versions of the fight

No no no you want to save it for interrupts. A few big ones off the top of my mind:
Tree avatar: save it for the projectile attack
Tree spirit: save it for the aoe explosion
Magma wyrm: save it for the magma tantrum
godskin fatty: interrupt the roll
BBK/Gargoyle: interrupt the tornado slam. Moreso important for the BBK version
Mainly you want to save it for big time waster attacks or attacks that often wipe randos (ie some of DTS's phase 2 lightning attacks)
>>
>>739865369
True, but on the offchance you still have them you should mainly try using her running attack. I think its the running R2, it's the big simultaneous hit. Shaves a ton off revive wheels and is generally pretty safe with its range and stagger

>>739868092
This, learn which attacks are the most dangerous or waste the most time and what the timing is for your ult to cancel them. I would say these are the highest priority in terms of night lords:
>ED Caligo crystal
>ED Adel tornado
>Gnoster roar into charge attack
>Libra meditation bubble
>Maris sleep attack
>Fulghor channeling his spear aoe
In addition to the above, I would also say a good Wylder should know how to parry as many bosses as possible, but especially problem bosses like the Bell Bearing Hunter, mounted bosses like Night's Cavalry, and Heolstor because it makes them a lot easier to deal with.

I haven't played in a couple months but I swear you could with a fully charged Wylder ult. ED Gnoster always starts the fight with that attack and you can clearly see it being interrupted here:

Is this not the ult cancelling the roar/charge or is the poise break a separate thing?

The map is good.
But learning to run it effectively is hard. Especially with the strict time limit. Especially with pubbies. Especially with how big, and vertical it is.

It all adds up. Especially if one or more person doesn't really know the routes, and ins and outs of the map.

The standard maps are all much easier to do, and straight forward.

I wish there was a way to extend the time limit during days.

Nightreign is the logical end of streamlining souls, all sense of an adventure through a dangerous land and building a character are gone. Nothing but epic bossfights with your mates. Glad to see fromsoft decided to piss on their original fans

Yeah those souls fans that came in with bloodborne, ds3 and elden ring I suppose. I get i'm the minority here but these games used to feel like a breath of fresh air around 2010 but now they're just like all the other action games. Yet when I play the old games they still pull me in with the things you call "fluff"

Overall dogshit pukeaola shitfest of a game.
The only Fromsoft games that are worth playing are Dark Souls 1, Sekiro, Bloodborne and maybe DS3 and DS2 / Demon Souls if you liked the world of DS1.

If you're looking at this thread and you think hey this looks like fun stay away. This is basically League of Legends level addiction but for fromdrones except it's worse.

Kill yourself, retard.

>>739884282
literally the only valid thing youre complaining about is the relic system, almost every other thing you complain about is in the other games and not different here

>>739884282
nice book fag, nightreign is the best thing from has made in years
>>
so can we play the nightreign content in elden ring?
>>
>>739775752
So how does a open world mp souls work? How are you supposed to fight bosses when it's not a guarantee you're gonna fight them again after you die?
>>
should I play this if i only care about muh lore and exploration?
>>
>>739884949
The map is very compact and bosses and dying work the same during the regular run, i.e. if you die the bosses remain and you can tackle them again. End of day fights and Nightlord fights are a game over if your team wipes.
>>
>>739885043
exploration not so much, but as you play you get journal entries and playable flashback parts where you actually get to know the characters and the lore behind the game. some of the most straight forward story telling FROM has ever done.
>>
>>739885043
No, it's all about speedrunning the semi-random map and the (high quality) boss fights. However the individual character quests are pretty well done but not a big part of the game.
>>
>>739884839
my cope for tarnished edition is theyre actually adding Nightreign shit, theres realistically no other reason it would be taking this long for a simple port

For the normal bosses during day cycles: you respawn, pick up ur shit and try again

For the night bosses and final boss of the run: if you die its over.

You have multiple lives though if youre solo (and revive mid fight), and teammates can revive you several times if youre running groups.

Anyone worth their salt is already in D5 but that now means the playerbase anywhere else sucks so much ass. In the base game it’s fine and even fun but D3/4 retards are infuriating.
>taking stuff they don’t even need
>not knowing what does and doesn’t stack

>not picking good things like full hp negation or the element talismans if youve got the ED balancer relic
>not knowing what to stagger for bosses

Dipping back into D4 from 5 gives you a glimpse sometimes and the leniency of D3 doesn’t help bc it becomes to easy to get to D4
>>
>>739885387
I'd forgive all the delays if they added the nightfarer movesets into the base game, I don't mean the character skills but I could do whole playthroughs with Raider's greataxe or Duchess's dagger.

Except DS3 blows on all of that.
>NPCs
The only good one in 3 is Sirri’s even then, she’s hardly engaging. Lucatiel from 2 is a better character. Plus they have little to nothing to say, like the old fire keeper NEVER has anything to say other than “give me more ashes” wow, so much fun. The nun? Oh good job making her a fire keeper, even though she never says anything other than “I could teach you miracles”, but she doesn’t even do anything or even remark on her being a fire keeper now.
>Quality over quantity
Half the areas in 3 are a drag to play. High wall, undead settlement, I LOATHE the transition area from settlement to the swamps where you meet Anri, Anor Londo is nothing, church area sucks too. It’s all a lot of crappy areas that you have no reason to retread the moment you take a foot past it.
>Hub areas
3’s is the worst out of all of them. It’s a boring area full of NPCs that come and go.
>waifu
I mean, 1’s sucks, and doll is great, ER dropped the ball, that’s about it.
>last one
The point of 3 is the world is converging, the fact that Lothric, Farron, deep church, Ithryill and Anor Londo all have the same atmosphere is a negative, these are all various kingdoms from different eras, yet they feel the same.
