If Marika hated the whole practice of pots, why does it seem pots are still such an enduring pot of Erdtree worship? There's so fucking many and it's clear that they've been practicing that kind of Erdtree bodily return for a long time.
>GreenAreas related to Marika (Metyr/fingers, churches, Messmer, her village, godhood tower and Hornsent Grandam, Bayle is also related since him hurting Placidusax definitely helped her, Romina's church also got burned by Messmer, for some reason)>BlueAreas related to Miquella (St. Trina and him ascending to Godhood)I don't think they have anything related to the red area or abyssal woods
How much STR do I want for general play? Is 55 enough? Or do I need like 80 like DEX if I'm level 150?
>>483916894Sadly, I'm a dragon with blue dancer charm>>483916758Haven't tried that yet. Where is that ash of war?>>483916789Not sure if Palm blast would work, i think it's hand to hand exclusive>>483917001Can't equip armor in dragon form using rock heart unfortunately
>There's a secret third phase to the final boss>requires you kept Radahn's remembrance and have specific quest progressions>You resurrect a copy of Radahn from the Erdtree's remembrance of him and then ride/pilot him like ratatouille or giant clank to have a giant kaiju battle between you and MohgRadahnNonas... were we wrong? Is the vision clear?Is Elden Ring actually....good?
I like this sword but the explosions hitbox needs work
Doing DLC on my low level twink is not as awful as i thought it would beInquisitor is still going to torment me, i bet. Does he have any glaring weaknesses or exploits? That's the only wall left between me and a sweet, sweet nanaya's torch.
>trying to coop dlc bosses>maxed out skibidi fragments>still getting 2 shot or instagrabbed>if not that the host gets 1-2 shot or instagrabbed>dedicated damage build gets mogged by meme kevin build whos fatrolling and using 2 soreseals
>main-gauche implies that it unlocks a special moveset when used in the off-hand with a thrusting sword>it's just the dual thrusting sword moveset>but with a dagger>so it's weaker>but you can put parry on a daggerIs... this it?
should i change my buildim getting fucked up by malenia even with mimic tear :(
>>483917167She didn't hate the practice she hated how it was done. Erdtree pots carry the corpses of dead warriors in them so they can be buried and reborn through the tree. The hornsent potting was just melding living people together.
Nanaya..forgive me....
>>483917013MELINA I JUST WANTED TO SAVE YOU
>>483917326Gaea...forgive me...
>>483916843>>483917071you know what this meansit's just like the ripple blade this might be immediately nerfed
>>483917296Considering that was her first exposure to it it still seems like a weird tradition to carry on in any way whatsoever with all the trauma and hatred it caused.
>>483917174>using fists with no poise or absorptionlmao, can't help you with that budThose slow ass animations with piss poor range just aren't going to work.Maybe try Beast Claws that can at least stunlock people with multihit + bleed.
>>483917290mind is kinda high vig is lowI'd respec but what's your build trying to do
>>483917212I feel like this and Messmer's Spear are going to get nerfed
>boar rider's albinauric GF was riding nearby>he was Messmer's sole friendJesus fuck i'm not fighting him ever again
>>483917290>33 VIG>WAHHHHH WHY DO I KEEP DYINGevery fucking time dude
>>483917070>304 damage without the talisman>335 with the talismanActually worth it.
>>483917212It's got the longest lunge in the game and at a seriously quick speed too, the smaller AOE explosion is a worthy tradeoff considering you can cover 3-4 rolls distance with the thing in under a second.
>>483917352Nah, no regrets for me. It’s even quite romantic, since you either burn her into one, or get killed by her. Nothing else survives, just Melina and you.
>>483917481Messmer's spear is like the most balanced DLC weapon.
>>483917453a bit of arc caster, and using dex weaponsi'm kind of unsure myself honestly>>483917509i've never needed to push my vigger this high in other soulslikes, what should i take it up to?
>>483917249Having beaten Inquisitor on a level 70 character with 12+ weapons and 5 blessings... don't do it at 5 blessings. Try to get at least 10 or 12, because there's no bonfire down there for you to eat more. It really depends on whether you can stagger him or not. My build had a hard time staggering him, so I had to rely on backstabs with the misericorde (no dagger talisman, I didn't have it). The thing about backstabs is that they will give you i-frames while his summons try to spam you to death, and the i-frames last long enough that the small ones will usually disappear. The fat summons are the issue, you need to keep your eyes glued to both them and Jori while they're up, and only go for backstabs at that point. Sometimes you'll get clipped by their spin attack out of a backstab, but that's the price of doing business.
>>483917430I have been using beast claws +25 occult infused and they work fine solo and against invaders (I always have tongue on to relive DS1 days).It's when I do coop where shit sucks and I can't do enough damage to overcome the health bloat bosses get
>>483917171abyssal woods is related to the finger shit with ymir. each ruin is deliberately next to something impacted by the fingers.
>>483917630I feel like they'll nerf the throw though
is the moon always out when you finish rannis quest? I see it at all times even in the scat realm
I can't believe it come to this guys. It's over. Fromsoft is finished. Almost like people are now starting to finish their playthroughs
>>483917560I don't want it to be fair I want it to be feared
>>483917646Oh, and obviously pick up Marika's braid if you can because you WILL be getting tagged by projectiles throughout the fight. Safest time to backstab him is when he's casting spira.
>>483917249I believe the summons have like 1 HP so fan daggers might work. I didn't get a chance to try it myself, though.You can also backstab him.
>>483917676Of course. They don't call it out in her description but the Three Fingers is certainly a spawn of Metyr too.
>>483917563So is Nanaya the Hyetta for Midra? Why did she tell him to edge instead of bursting into frenzy?
does giving yourself fragments flag your character?
>>483916832>>483917051>>483916935red pill me on some suggestions
Reminder than mountain tops of the giants is actually a decent zone.
so I know that 60 vig is the base standard, but what about end? is that build dependent? should I be hitting 30 END?
>>483917646How are his status effect resistances? Most enemies in the DLC have no protection against an ailment soup.Also, do blessings impact the matchmaking? I'm on a level 7 +3/1.
>>483917814not that I'm aware ofthey don't seem to do much anyways
>>483917793Where did this come from? Weren't the 3 fingers just summoned by the merchants? To mock the actual 2 fingers? Which is why they are fucked up and they have to touch physical things to communicate, as opposed to the 2 Fingers? (Fingerprint Shield)
>>483917780Huh, that's a nice idea, thanks anon.
How do you think Leda convinced the Hornsent to help her in ganking you, after she attempted to kill him?
>invade>host and his friend pull out a thrust shield and backhand blade immediatelyfucking pathetic
>>483917852>show up to a gentlemans duel of fistycuffs>stab the guyWoooooww
>>483917827They somehow made the south part of the map even worse than Mountaintop of the giant. At least the mountaintop has shit to collect.
>>483917945Could be fingers that were infected and driven insane by the frenzied flame.
I misused all my hefty pots thinking I'd be able to buy as many as I wanted later on and now THERE'S NO WAY FOR ME TO KILL THESE FUCKERS.Do I respec to int or fai.... to kill them?
Fucking whoops>>483917924I keep forgetting how fast these threads go.
>>483917013Man he's ugly
>>483917827Mountaintops is okay. Even Faram Azula is okay, but it's the most annoying "I thought this game was over, I have no idea why I'm here and what I'm doing and this shit makes no sense and I'm ready to be at the final boss now" feeling on a first playthrough, even though it too has a pretty decent level design. Pretty boring enemies though.
>>483917819The Rakshasa or however you pronounce it gives you extra poise and you're supposed to take more damage using it but I honestly haven't noticed it. It also has the Claymore R2 so it's fucking brutal. The base Great Katana can have ashes on it, and it's fucking long so things like Piercing Fang are hilarious and combo incredibly well, especially since it has a running poke. A crouch Poke.
>>483917795She was telling him to endure the flame itself. A lord of frenzy fails when they can't endure it, because then the flame just consumes them.The lord is a conduit for the flame to pour through into the Lands Between, if it burns out the conduit is shut.The word choice is deliberate, hence "Unendurable Frenzy"
>>483917852Nope thought when you get summoned to assist others you assume their level of skibidi blessing thus you can be in for a very bad time if host has forgotten to improve their blessing level
>>483918056I beat her and yeah she was a ton of fun
>>483918049Hefty Pots are reusable
>>483917249Does your summon ash level affect matchmaking
>>483918012>invade exclusively with madness perfumes, madness hands and offhand xbow shotgun with blood bolts>win all the ones I don't get fogwalled into>swap to less cancerous shit>every summon is running bhb, deathblight glitch, the new thorn spell, the aimbot jar cannon
>>483918049Do you not know about crafting?
>Someone actually killed this guy the other day.. How.. literally the best npc of all time
>>483917945The 3 fingers are fingers and there's no reason to think they don't share a genesis with the other fingers. They were likely a bastardization or mutation or whatever, but I don't know how you could ever really say they have no shared origin. They're fingers, there's not exactly any others unconnected.
>>483917924>>483918056She was my favorite until Bayle. Such a fun fight. Her design is across the board excellent.
>>483918049There's messmer goons east of the entrance to shadow keep near some destroyed furnace golems that can drop furnace visages
>>483917795The flame of frenzy manifests in the material plane from suffering, and a true lord needs to be able to bear the flame itself. We know that Midra and the other heretics in his manse were executed (or in Midra's case, condemned to execution by torture). My interpretation is that Nanaya asked Midra to endure so that he would suffer enough to be able to endure the flame and become the true lord of frenzy, unlike those who had failed before him (like the failed lord whom Nanaya cradles).>>483917852No idea. Blessings should not impact matchmaking as you're scaled to the host's blessings in co-op and I assume they simply don't apply to PVP damage calculations.
I guess the forager brood stop showing up if you do the gank fight, huh?
>>483918187No, go wild.
>>483917997Probably because he understands vengance and her lashing out trying to protect Miquella, and then like not much of a leap to then convince him that the real enemy is you, eho are arw a Tarnished who seek yo become Elden lord and like by proxy are designed to prop up the Golden Order that the Hornsent hates
>>483918049some of them have invulnerable legs and have to be domed from above with the big pots from a high pointyou can also remake them assuming you have the cookbook and spare mats
>>483918192post your frenzybuild king
>didn't take a good screenshot during the moment where PC blows into the giant finger in the ruins>can't make an edited post of my Tarnished tonguing Ranni's blue holew h y
>>483917943>skub tree fragments dont seem to do muchHuh?
>>483918213When I did the double dragon fight, the boss died first and the mob dragon almost killed Igon.
>>483918198What?
>>483918049You can kill them without pots. Just attack the legs until they fall over.
>GENOCIDE ALL HORNED FAGGOTS! Pretty please.
>>483918187it doesnt unless they changed it in a patch since the last time i checked. good for making twinks. also i find that bosses are really fun in a inuque way when you are way underleveled and using summons to get to endgame loot.
>>483918294Yep
>enemy uses an attack that spreads fire all over the ground>jump>it angles off of a rock and hits me anyways, killing me instantlyWhy don't they just program you to be invincible to this shit instead of disabling your leg hurtbox.
>>483918396nta but the pots are reusable, all of them. They fix themselves
>>483917997>did you know that the tarnished is trying to start Marika order again?I wonder how they figure it out
>>483918425Have you seen the Omens in the sewers? They're fucking gross. I will totally kill them all
>>483918502How do you craft things? The blacksmith in roundhold?
>Inquisitor>Gravebird>Bloodfiend>Man-Fly>Spider Scorpion>Shadow commoners Here's your DLC.
>>483918571Hit your start button and there's literally an option that says item crafting you dunce
>>483918410There are multiple invincible to damage
How would the golden order deal with Ayre type species?
The "trigger warning" cut content xeet got deleted lol
>each demigod's right hand man>morgott: kristoff>malenia: finlay>miquella: leda>radahn: jerren>mohg: ansbach>rykard: bernahl>ranni: blaidd, (you)>messmer: gaius>godrick: a dead dragonPoor Godrick
>>483918571You need to collect cookbooks, then the items needed for crafting. If you have ever used a hefty pot for anything, you must have done this before.
>>483918651yea because he was a pathetic retard that dickrammed the DLC and didn't talk to the NPC who said the line he got trannyhurt over lmao
>>483918651lol
>>483917013You can scarlet rot radahn in his second form, it just takes a bunch of the heavy rot pots.Turns out if you have them on your item bar your mimic has access to them and will use them. I'd feel bad cheesing him, but this boss sucked and I just wanted to be finished with the DLC.
>>483917352they deserved better
so whips are just completely fucking garbage right?I never see anyone talking about them anywhere
>>483918649Genocide, which is apparently what Marika defaults to.
>>483918651It was a stupid tweet claiming something that's still ingame as being cut content
>>483918771>TWIGGER WARNING>DLC CUT CONTENT>I'M NOT EVEN GOING TO POST IT NOW...UGH....>It's something already in the game
If I respec from pure STR to STR/FTH, should I only get enough FTH to cover whatever I want to use/cast? Also I'm guessing Clawmark Seal is the best option?
I want a Elden Ring collaboration in Monster Hunter Wilds, I want to fight Bayle with MH combat and see his armor and weapons
>stuck on Rellana>can't beat her>finally decide to use Mimic>it ruins her completelyHoly shit I feel like I was cheating. What even is this
>>483918783So Poleblade of the Bud can work against him?
>>483918148>>483918198>>483918279>>483918349>>483918641Thanks everyone. I'll be re-crafting my pots. Cheers and have a cool friday!
>>483918901the in-game assist feature
Are there no night bosses in the dlc?
>>483917997The difference in armor design between the base game and the DLC is really noticable. They made a lot of shitty armor sets for some reason when they clearly could've made some good shit like Leda sooner.
>>483918651It wasn't even cut content and is still in the game
So what's the lore justification for i-frames?
>>483918476Nice. If I wasn't fairly confident he wasn't going to give me something worth caring about, I might be upset.
>>483917997>With the object of his vengeance gone, his blade has grown dull.>In that state, I don't imagine he will ever fight again. I needn't bother with him.>Lest, of course, another target for his retribution should appear.Leda's pretty conniving
>>483918901Do you not just alt-f4 if you feel like you accidentally chested something?
>>483918862I am a whip enjoyer, but they aren't viable for bosses.Really good for overworld exploration and they ignore stone/rock enemies gimmick. Also usuable in pvp if you dual wield bleed ones.I always keep a whip as my secondary weapon but generally just use my primary on bosses.
>>483918901Luigi mode
>>483918984The predetection of Zazibart iirc
>>483918934good luck anon
>>483918901It's so funny how Mimic and Sorcerery are considered easy mode when Int players are getting fucked up the ass in this DLC. It's hard to cast spells when every boss closes the distance in 3 seconds.
>>483918148I never knew that
>>483918998No, I still won. Only the results matter.
>>483918526>I wonder how they figure it outI'm convinced the original script involved miquella recognizing the player as a threat and trying to keep (you) out (cutdialogue has messmer refer to miquella by name), and once his followers get into his cuckshed he's in a position to tell them you're an outsider and thus need to die.
>most major DLC bosses are parriable>most major DLC bosses are vulnerable to status>most major DLC bosses are vulnerable to stagger>most major DLC bosses deal low enough stamina damage that even medium shields are useful against themThe truth is that casual niggers should get impaled for pretending those fights are unfair.It's Margit all over again.
>>483918928Any rot weapon would but his resistance is way too high for it to be viable. Heavy rot pots insta rot anything else in the game for reference, he needs like 4 of them to get rotted in phase 2. But this also means he stays rotted the entire time since his resistance is so crazy high. You'll kill him normally before you proc it with normal weapons.
>>483918352its scummy for the sl but whatever>level 25 +3/+1>vagabond start>vig 25>mnd 10>end 13>str 14>dex 14>int 9>fth 12>arc 7>radagon +5 stat seal>marika +5 stat seal>fth ring>fap ring +2

>>483918991You get a bunch of the crafting recipes for pickled resistance consumables and stuff mostly
>>483918846We deserved better.>>483918934>>483919107Do you guys never bothered to read item descriptions
>messmer has a lot of friends>loyal men>a hot knight waifu>still depressed because of mommyWAKE UP BRO
>>483919106Wasn't the DS3 designer in charge with this DLC? That explains a lot
>>483919106I use magic for clearing zones and then just remove all my magic and blue flasks and equip a shield for bossesSpells aren't worth it>>483919203Years ago
>>483919152Margit is unironically bullshit though, I've played since launch and still haven't gotten past him
>>483918651I'm not terminally online, what was the tweet?
What the fuck how big is this dlc? There's so many different areas.
>>483918867>>483918974Seriously? lmfao what a retard
>>483918901>Almost beat Rellana but died to messing up in the second phase>got too frustrated and summon mimic>fight is brain dead as fuckFucking hate myself for that.
>>483919279it doesnt matter what, its twitter trash
>>483919194I know, I think I found most of them before that, which is why I'm not too fussed about missing one. Do you know how many bell-bearing pots there are in the DLC? I think I found 3, but I might just break down and look up a guide.
>>483918972No but there are some items that only spawn at night like larval tears for example
>>483919106as an INT main this dlc is very difficulttry and cast? smacked around instantlyI've resorted to shieldpoking with a cold claymans or bird rain spear just to stand a chance or getting to hard to reach areas and spamming night mist and zamor ice storm
>>483919152>DLC bosses are easy if you change your build and use things that were always considered brokenNo shit, bitch.
>>483918895>his weapon is the dragon-hunter's great katana
>>483919152Somehow, they went the entire game without learning how to play it
>>483919303You found the Deep Purple area.There's a hidden musical cue that plays when you reach an area with smoke on the water
>>483919204Don't forget his hot knight waifu literally left her home because saw this mommy issue nigga and wewnt "i can fix him". He didn't deserve her
>>483919337X*
Thoughts on the Euporia?
>>483919204He literally sounds like shut-in autist when he kills you too.
>>483919303keep going down
You know there are other ashes besides mimic tear right? You can adjust the difficulty slider pretty widely.
>>483919106Don't forget faith enjoyers. I managed to beat the two named dragons with scarlet rot spam but for pretty much everything else I've had to use backhand blade infused with cold/fire/holy and learn melee combat and dodges.
>>483919152It’s too easy if you abuse status and parry.I rather bang my head desu.
>>483919395>went through the entire base game without learning to play it>DLC release>wtf this is hard it's almost like i never learned how to play the game>youtubers / twitter tell them to shieldpoke everything to death with antspur rapier behind fingerprint greatshield>wtf this is easy>goes through the entire DLC without learning to play it
>>483919204he's depressed because he's cursed with a fucking vile death serpent and only like 3 people who ever learned of it still care for him.
>>483919279Xeet* and it was saying "Wow, I just found a very trigger warning-y cut content in the lines....""It will be revealed in time...."And then yhe line was just like a line in-game that is someone saying "Here's a potion to take for eternal slumber"
>Only weapon in the throwing blade class>It's underwhelmingfugAt least the Night Claws are good and technically throwing daggers.
>>483919204>pet who is happy to see youkek
Finished INT playthrough, gonna try FTH. What do I use for>sniping>aoe sniping>hitting behind corners>nuking boss after crit
>>483919152>Using a completely different build or abusing the strongest tools in the game removes difficulty You niggers are retarded and somehow don't seem the problem in what you wrote
>>483919503I use Giant Rats against Jori and they clapped his cheeks, giving me time to cast dragonmaw repeatedly
So did ANY npc get a happy ending?
>Get summoned by a dude called let me solo>I let him solo>He severs meGetting some mixed signals here
>>483919340I don't remember honestly. I can only remember two of them off the top of my head, 3 or 4 sounds right. There weren't many.
>>483919303Make sure you updoot my message. You'll know the one ;^)
How many of Marika's kids would you say are wrong? Strip everything about what she went through and the culture of the setting. It's just Malenia right? Like every other kid could have lived their lives as people fine.
>>483919564I'm tired of people shitting on these, they're amazing offhand weapons
>>483919480he sounds so fucking tired when he says it, like he's just bored and wants you to win the fight already
>>483919574>snipingfrenzy burstalternatively thunderbolt/honed bolt(idk the name of the spell)>aoe snipingancient dragon lightning spear>hitting around cornersadls>nuking boss after critadls or giantsflame take thee
>>483919574Ehat sorceress did you use to do these?
>>483919152when normalfags say something is unfair, what they mean is that the boss doesn't give them 20 full seconds to summon and buff a mimic tear. having to dodge one or two attacks BEFORE summoning their digital big brother to pass the controller to and have beat the game for them is asking too much.
>>483919386You can do these things on every build.
>>483918973Definitely. I wasn't entirely happy with the base games fashion choices. I stuck mostly to different variants of Banished Knight. But man, I am enjoying the new stuff.
>>483919570I wonder if hes used those snakes on himself
i forgot how to get to gaius
>>483919413Lmao is there actually?
>>483919594
>>483919808kek
>>483919587Doesn't the Hornsent Grandma just go to sleep? Moore can survive too
What does it mean?
>>483919852Iunno
ancient ruins of rauh have been the least fun ive ever had playing a souls game every, just running around desperately seeking the way forward isn't fun. peeking over cliffs, wondering if "can i survive this drop" so cringe.
>Give the player a bunch of cool abilities>Make them take forever to use>Make the bosses attack 50 times a secondThis is why I use Spirit Ashes
>>483919547Melina was cursed with death fire and she seems to have accepted it. Why not her brother?
>>483919621Cheers.
ansbach is the only true bro
>>483919852destruction brings festering regrowth
>>483919152>What do you mean I have to adapt to the boss? What do you mean I can't just mindlessly spam L2? Fromsoft has fallen.
>>483919808what a chad
>>483919852>rominazibart... forgive me
>>483919505I'm flipping between both my faith girl and my int girl and both are having serious trouble. I'm starting to think I need to break out my old faithful Bleed/Arcane build but she's NG+
>>483918128>>483918285I thought you basically die when you become the Lord, was under the impression that in the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending, it wasn't you at the end, but Shabriri using your soulless body.
>>483919852she did it for the buds. the buddies. the guys. saint of the bros.
kek, got it.this is a real positioning fight, you are basically always ment to try to position yourself to his left. i think people who got stuck for long on this guy didnt realize this
>>483919574If you also raise DEX a bit you can use bolt of gransaax for sniping. I usually have it as a sidearm for killing birds or kiting knights.
>>483919587Moore if you don't make him kill himself or make him side with Leda
>>483919852So how'd she fuse with a centipede scorpion? Is she a hornsent? Why can't she talk? Is she defending the tree? Why are we even fighting her?
which dryleaf is better, hands or footwork?And what ashes pair well with it?
>>483919242I didn't see Okano in the credits so maybe that was some meme lie or something. He would've just been another Game Designer even if he was involved though. Midra and maybe Metyr are the only bosses that really feel DS3-ish
>>483919152Margit is way too hard to parry
Bayle at blessing lvl 2. I hate these retards!
it's actually comical the amount of times people say "forgive me" in SOTE
Is it weird that I feel kind of cheated out of not being able to get Midra's rags as equipment considering we get Goldmask's?
>>483919918The new weapons more than any other DLC in From history feels like they were made for you to take them back to the base game and just have fun. Like you're not meant to use them for the Shadow Lands.
>>483917702Firmly believe Radahn was what killed all the end game hype. It just makes the majority of player miserable.The rest of the game can be hand waved and excused, but Radahn was absolute fucking bullshit if you weren't cheesing him or naturally a god gamer.
>>483919852its the church burning to the ground before she became a bug
>>483919574>snipingFrenzied Burst or the new Lightning Spear depending on distance and the damage you want to do. I generally always make sure I have enough STR to use Radahn Bow though since his Arrows are always great.>aoe snipingThe new Miquella Incantations are pretty decent at this. Same with the Giant Wind Tornado Incant.>hitting behind cornersBear Roar. Unironically. People kept shitting on me using that, but that thing is fucking brutal with 80 Faith. I was hitting other players with it a whole floor below them when they invaded players I was helping and would one-shot them. It's a fucking NASTY Incantation. You need space to use it and you need to charge it. But if you can get it off. Say good bye to anything around you. It's absolutely god tier.>nuking boss after critAncient Dragon's Lightning Strike. Nothing else is better. It'll let you hit bosses for 20k+. I one-shot that Underground Sleep Boss forgot it's name.
>>483920024>go around the church>burn the tree>get teleported awayeasy
>>483919926>she seems to have accepted itshe declared jihad on the erdtree and started having people skinned. unclear if it was because of the fire or because she was upset about messmer getting abandoned.
Has anyone been able to reliably oneshot with the Greatsword of Damnation? Most footage I see of it has the grab cap out around 1200-1400
>>483919852>messmer and romina are the only required bosses to get to radahn>they gave cutscenes to divine beast and midra, both optional bossesWhy
>>483919695Loretta's Bow, Cannon of Haima, Cannon of Haima, DMGS charged R2.
>>483919689It's my favourite voice line in the game because it genuinely sounds like a bad cosplayers autistic impersonation at comicon, lol.
Bros I think dried bouquet is actually pretty good. If you pair it with unupgraded ashes that produce multiple bodies, it procs each time almost immediately. With Soldiers of Fortune you get a 60% damage increase. You can get 100% if you use Wandering Nobles. Subvert the system. Use spirit ashes offensively.
>>483919574the new pest threads fuck huge bosses like no one's buisness, new dragon lightning spear for sniping, fire serpent is your glintstone equivalent
>>483920078Cute fat baby
>>483920005>makes the entire 15 year history of soulslike orbit around strafing right to easily defeat bosses>lol what if we make it so strafing left is the way to goWhy
>>483919991
>>483920134I can't help but laugh at the amount of holes in the Godskin lore. I truly think that whole subplot was meant to be cut out but they kept the bosses in for padding.
>>483919725The fact that you have to dodge a few attacks before you can get a summon out has filtered at least 75% of the player base kek
>>483920082>wanted to use relannas swords the second i got them>ash of war is genuinely a death sentence and never usable even once in a fight>go back to the main game in NG+7>destroy bosses and actually get to use the ash
>>483920159>>messmer and romina are the only required bosses to get to radahn...huh. i knew the amount of actually required bosses was low, but i didn't think it was that low.

WHERE ARE YMIR'S MAPS, I DON'T SEE THEM IN THE KEY ITEMS TAB, REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>483919971Why does Shabiri get body jacking privileges and not any other frenzy nigga? Are you saying Nanaya is him as well? He’s not the lord of frenzied flame, I am.
>>483919782There is smoke on the water in the deep purple area below that new area yes
>freyja can be summoned for the divine beast>dane and leda for rellana>hornsent for messmer>igon for bayle>dane for romina>ansbach and thiollier for radahnLeda is a lazy bitch, at least Dane helps us with Romina, why isn't she helping for Messmer?
>>483920293Data miners found that the Putrescent Knight used to be called the Gloam Eyed Queen's Knight. They were going to expand her in the dlc but just kinda didn't
What's the name of that little guy in a cave who does judgement cuts?
Are any of the new tears aside from the deflecting one really worth gettingfucking hate those nigger giant fire dudes
>>483919991>>483919852smokin that OG rot with my bud buddies
>>483920293I want to know more about the gods who got skinned--how many there were, what they were gods of, how they managed to get shit on by some stretchy dudes, and why their collective skins resulted in "standard-issue" gear rather than unique god-specific hardware.
>>483920497the yoda looking motherfucker? demi-human swordsmaster onze
>>483920078No, I'm not even a frenzyfag, but having his gear including the flaming head would have been kino.
>>483920472>why isn't she helping for Messmer?Because at this point, she's shanking Hornsent with her Miquella-themed special edition penetrator.
>>483917702>pretendsSuch arrogance. You're right dawg, anyone who doesn't share your opinion on the matter is just making it up for attention.
>>483920262This largely applies to other horsemen in ER aswell, especially Night's Cavalry. It's not really *that* new, their "backhand" attacks are always easier to dodge and rarely ever combo.
>>483920393i haven't actually tested it, but you can just walk around castle ensis, enter the shadow keep from the side, and then you get teleported to enir-ilim. so those bosses should all be skippable. i have no idea why there's a teleport to enir-ilim
>>483920438Resources I think
>>483920438Info tab anon
base game seems much easier than I remembered it. i beat radahn on my 5th try.
>>483919152Radahn phase 2 simply isn't fair, yes. That's why most people beat him with scummy tactics that work over fun tactics that do not.
>>483918862No, they're good.They just lack good weapon skills so their burst damage is shit, so they're not very viable for invasions.
>>483920514There's a cool %HP drain that gives you a +20% damage boost for three minutes.
>>483920573Think so. What's his story?
>>483920574shouldve gotten a frenzy form like a dragon form where you get midras head if your lord of frenzy
>>483920603>teleport to enirilimWhat?
>>483920245>new dragon lightning spear?
>>483920275
>>483920514the oil one is good if you use fire attacks, the HP drain damage one is good but risky. The FP gain on attacks is okay.
>>483917636>what should i take it up to?55 minimum, ideally 60.
>>483920159Wait, do they really not make you fight Divine Beast? lmao
>>483917702I sincerely enjoy the vast majority of the DLC. I just really really REALLY disliked the finale. The fact that the rest of it building up was so good is what made that final step so bad for me.
>>483920678while marika genocided the hornsent, he studied the blade
>>483920451I like the theory that Shabiri isn't a guy but like a literal demon from hell and he just possesses people after a certain point. I like to think that Hyetta doesn't exist and that's just Shabiri too.
just got to the dude riding the boar boss on my second play through at dlc lvl 17 and we may have overreacted a bit on his difficulty…
>>483920576If you help her with that, she should be a summon for Messmer as a replacement. DO BETTER FOR MIQUELLA YOU BITCH
>>483920603i wonder how much you can do before fighting anything. reminds me of the old "everything possible before gargoyles" dark souls 1 series
Yo FUCK these things
>>483920514If you like spirit ashes there's a tear that buffs them
>>483920293>I truly think that whole subplot was meant to be cut out but they kept the bosses in for padding.I think someone on the dev team (Miyazaki himself?) just really hated Melina so any attempts to make her more prominent or factored into the plot wound up on the cutting room floor.
>>483920712my bad, meant knight's lightning spear
>>483920613Radahn really isn't that hard. I think he's mostly just there for spectacle.
Holy fuck...after finishing the final boss (with 2 summons, all 3 poking with shields), I really hate Miquella, I hate him I fucking hate him. Disgusting fucking psycho. Not even Griffith charm to him, just fucking creep.
>>483919106sorcery is not easy mode in ER with the exception of certain bosses which are laserable and when you're using spirit summons
Reminder that you gimp yourself if you are good at the game>never experience the thrilling sensation of beating the boss after he killed you 100 times
AoW spam is actually fucking insane in this DLC
>>483920693>>483920745I haven't actually tested it, but I assume the cutscene teleport after burning the sealing tree lets you skip the Divine Beast.
Alright what the fuck am i supposed to do against this bloodborne knockoff ass frenzy flame dude. He has no health bar and sneaking up on him does nothing
>>483920693Yea, after the cutscene where you burn the tree to reveal Enir-Ilim ends you just get ported without explanation
>>483920560>how they managed to get shit on by some stretchy dudesDestined Death was still powering their black fire at that point, so they were all mini malekiths.
>>483920606>>483920612Thank am dumb sorby
>>483920767Why does Shabriri keep pretending to be women?
>>483920961Oh, I thought you meant you could get there without any bosses in that post. My bad.
>>483920962brush xem aside
>>483920810"Needle Knight" is such a non threatening title.
>>483920831Lol fuck off from you cocksuckers
>>483919106>boss opening>try to cast a spell>dodge it because casting speed is too slowI got so mad that I end up as a quality build.
>>483920678It turns out that glintstone swordsmanship can be studied so hard you reach the primeval current, like Azur and Lusat. He saw it coming and locked himself up to avoid it
>>483920962snake? snake? snaaaaaaaake?!
>>483920678Apparently some Demi-Humans realize throwing blue rocks is dumb and decide moonveil is the way to be.
>>483920962Parrying their grab removes their untouchability letting you kill them
>>483920810>>483920472How kino would it be if you could use Seluvis's super roofie potion on her after the gank fight for a Leda spirit ash?
>>483920960Is the new frenzy spell really just a worse version of Unendurable Frenzy?
>>483920767>I like to think that Hyetta doesn't exist and that's just Shabiri tooIf you believe that Irina is Hyetta, that makes a lot of sense. Perhaps he took over her dead body and was in a dormant state until you started feeding her eyeballs.
>>483920758my overall opinion on the dlc is a 9/10, mostly because of so much of the loot just being titanite shards and radahns 2nd phase, his first phase is a lot of fucking fun but they got carried away in phase 2, not just how much shit there is but the sheer fucking assault on your eyes not being able to see anything
>>483920927i remember him being quite a pain in the ass back when I first played. and that was after the nerf.a little worried and exited to see how easy malenia is.
Does Bayle's Fire Lightning deal fire damage, lightning damage or both? I need to know which talisman to use.
>>483920962FROM quite literally added 1 message at the start of the area as a warning then later on added like 4 more at one spot and another 3 in another spot just to warn people like you.
Just got to that second phase, can't even psyche myself up to try again - there's no sense of "I nearly had it" like in older games or even just previous bosses when it's all just the same ridiculous AOE after-image/slash bullshit.
>>483920960>It's another episode of "Host and phantom spam Backhand Blade AoWs"

Messmer is two-shooting me brosI didn't had many problems with the other bosses, but this is... DAMN!!!!!!!+20 scadu fragments, str/int buildNo i'm not going to use summonsNo i'm not going to respecMalenia is a baby-toddler compared to him
>>483921161Both, it's literally in the spell name
midra was fucking shabriri
>>483919106dont forget so many bosses dodging spells, the only practical thing is night comet, i fucking gave up real fast on using any of my ice spells and just stuck to moonlight greatsword

>>483920758miyazaki's worst decision was thinking that people don't care about anything other than epic anime raid boss fights and difficulty
>>483921262Post bulid and ng+
>>483921262>+20 scadu>getting two shotPost vigor so I can laugh at you.
>>483920293i cannot be convinced that the DLC wasn't originally supposed to be about godwin and the GEQ. the whole realm of shadow is death-centric: tombstones, ghosts, even deathroot everywhere. his personal guard knights are there. the scadutree avatar arena is covered in deathroot thorns and black sludge-water and looks like it was made for his freaky fish form. death this, death that - it's the whole plot of elden ring. and the god of death slept in and forgot to show up for the dlc. get the fuck out of here michael zaki.
>>483921262What's your VIG? And are you loading up on defensive options like resistance talismans?
>>483921262Wait til you get to final boss, every other boss is really a joke compared to shitshow From decided to make out of the final.
>>483921248The EU has been pushing education campaigns and mandatory voice coaching to establish a wider European accent
Aah, you were at my side all along.My true mentor... My guiding starlight...
I think radahn is going to make me drop this dlc, I honestly just don't wanna fight him anymore and since the ending is apparently unsatisfying I really don't this it's worth it. How fitting for a game with so much repeated content to end in a repeat fight.The only two bosses I had fun fighting were messmer, mydra and to some very minor extent bayle(mostly due to egon). If the next game is another rollslop one, it will probably be the first time that I won't buy a fromsoft game.
>>483921316>miquella only refers to malenia as his loyal blade, not his sisterfeels bad
>>483920962Stealth is a vital part of Elden Ring Online
From has actually destroyed the future of their games with arts of war. There is no going back. You might as well just make every button do a different super move now instead of even having basic attacks.
>>483921216Honestly frenzy builds must be pretty insane now that an exultation talisman was added + the passive from the Frenzy fists.
>>483921289Shabriri looks like Junior Soprano
>>483921262Dodge to the left, get where the new dlc fire amulet and other defense amulets.Also could use a shield
>>483920831I wonder if all the ones surrounding the evergaols were supposed to be like this to prevent escape attempts, but over time they lost so much power all they can really do is stare and glow.
people be saying that casting spells and incantations are next to impossible in the DLC but if someone does it, they complain that the player is cheesing and is unfair. there's really no winning with these retards unless you use a melee weapon, no damage, parry-only mental gymnastics.
I'm guessing invasions take scadu level into account for matchmaking?
>>483921324>raid boss fighthe got it right with the first radahn fight, summoning all the boys to charge at radahn to give him a proper death was kino, he was easily one of my favorite fights pre nerf
>>483921319Two phantoms are spamming blinkbolt
>>483921324Team Ninja doesn't have this problem. You can have big, dumb anime fights but it doesn't sacrifice story or game design to pull it off.
>>483921161>>483921197>>483921276Is it the better of the two? I heard Bayle's Tyranny has a weird hitbox and can't hit enemies not on the same plane as you.
I have a question. I have 52 ARC, RL 150. I have a medium spear that has inherant ARC scaling right off the bat, and it's Occult. Why does it only have ~500 AR? Is it because it's a lighter weapon compared to my MSS?
>>483921248lol aussie youtubers are like that too. i think it's the stuffy nose nerd archetype just being transposed across different accents.
>>483920683If the Erdtree hasn’t been burnt yet, imagine Melina’s face when she sees the Tarnished coming back looking like THAT.
>>483921483God Nioh is such overrated ugly trash
>>483921463Stop being a crybaby
>>483921413This should have been a light greatsword, did we really need another int katana
>>483921458There's a few new types so that's actually pretty possible. >>483921413It's such a fun weapon. I'm so glad from is going even more in to the stupid anime weapons. The big fuck off hammer that you spin around and throw is awesome too.
>>483921491It's the other way around
>>483921375宵眼の女王の騎士 = Knight of the Gloam-Eyed Queen>>483921473Radahn's fight is amazing. I wonder how it would look like with NPCs having dialogues DURING the fight like how they did with Messmer, Bayle, etc.>>483921483The fuck that looks like Radahn
>>483921262>Malenia is a baby-toddler compared to himlol I honestly think Messmer is a lot easier than Malenia.
in the ruins of rauh where the fuck do I go? Ive been stuck running around and jumping off cliffs for the last 3 hours.
>>483921375100% agree. Realized I’m easy to please because if they literally model swapped Radahn for a revived Godwyn fun the final fight I would absolutely love it.
>>483921483Nioh has bosses end their attack strings and they have mikiri counter moves.Nioh bosses attack less then Elden Ring ones which I find really funny
>>483921426I think like it's supposed to be like kinda like he does love her or definitely did at one point, but then over time in his quest to create an age of compassion and ascend, he views people mir3 as tools and like how they'll be fine so long as he wins, but that means he can't afford to be too lovey until then, but irinicall7 like meaning he's abandoning his ideals to try and do it, atleast that's my Korean headcanon since it makes me tear up and I love those sorts of stories
>golem fist>the r2 damage is abyssmal>it's range is nonexistent>the AoW are limited >oh but the fucking weeb martial arts are so catered to I fucking hate fromsoft the fucking hacks
>fire knight chest armor>cape looks amazing>chest red and gold with etched metal plate>looks great>matches with literally nothing except its own setFUCKalso,PLEASE JUST GIVE ME THE FUCKING SWORD ALREADY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
>>483921375Oh yeah no, it was 100% supposed to be about Godwyn. His iconography is everywhere.
>>483921463Hyper mode insta kills are always fun though
>>483920960Midra's Flame of Frenzy, in terms of appearance, is the greatest power fantasy I could have ever wanted as a Frenzy player.Midra's Flame of Frenzy, in terms of effectiveness, rivals Founding Rain of Stars. It's not even as good as a fucking torch you can pick up several minutes before the boss you earn it from. I hope whoever balanced it is afflicted by migraines for the rest of their lives.
>>483921104>>483921121I can respect that. Cool too.
>>483921648I am going to now pretend that the final boss of Godwyn instead actually, thank you
The ONE time "X forgive me" would've been kino, they chose not to do it. Retards.
>messmer's helmet can be altered to remove the hairWhy didn't add this to other helmets like Malenia's
>>483921648Radahn is just fucking stupid. It's as dumb as Soul of Cinder, where they pull out Gwyn's theme. They really expect you to just soiface and clap.
I should have killed Moore, this fucker is annoying in the Leda fight
>>483921648>>483921607radahn might've still been at the end all along, but the more i think about it, the more that scadutree avatar seems like a reworked godwin. even the way it hangs it's sunflower head and smashes it around is really reminiscent of how the godwyn corpse hangs its head limply. it pretends to die 3 times, another perfect mechanic for a god of death fight.
>>483921463anyone saying you can't hit bosses with spells this time around is wrong, doing a second playthrough as a faith build and you can still spam big damage spells on bosses.
>>483921716>>matches with literally nothing except its own setroyal knight greaves
>>483921573It's not really an INT katana. It has B DEX scaling and D INT scaling, INT has a big effect on the ash and that's it, but leveling DEX does almost as much. You either go hybrid with it or all DEX.>This should have been a light greatswordNo, fuck that. The LGS moveset is mediocre and they do no fucking poise damage. As a katana it gets a decent moveset AND free bleed with the ash makes VERY good use of.>>483921582Yeah I'm really hoping we get even more wacky anime ashes in their next title. They make the games FAR more fun when we can do crazy shit too and not just the bosses. Fighting a boss that can fire 5 gorillion lightning meteors target locked at your asshole when the flashiest thing you can do is swing a claymore slightly different sucks balls.
>>483921634There's East and West ruins and they are not connected directly. The map fragment is in the East section and you actually get there going through the cave just north of Moorth Ruins by the small lake.
>>483921648Oh God, that's even more proof. Miquella doesn't even talk about Radahn in any lore, that motherfucker was supposed to be Godwyn.
kowtower's resentment:>Skill performed as a violent bow using a finger's foremost protrusion. Resentment builds as it is forced to bow, making it explode with anger. Hold button down to further increase resentment.who was metyr bowing to? the crucible ayylmao of the primordial erdtree? did it manipulate marika into performing a coup so the fingerthing could get revenge and put itself on top?
>>483920078I don't care if it wouldn't make sense, but I also wanted an armor set based on Romina. Or at least some kind of rot-themed armor set with that wild hot pink color scheme to match with her poleblade.
>>483921324This shit makes me long for something like Demon's where the final boss is allowed to be a pushover for the sake of story - even though modern From will never do it.
>>483921440Wait, passive? Explain further, please.

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>483921463Why does Bayle get struck by lightning at the end anyway?
I want to replay the dlc but don't want to go through the base game again
Where's the Melina sex scene?
Why the FUCK does the Ancient Meteorite Ore Greatsword scale with Arc instead of Int?
>>483921262How did you get 20 scadu when some of the fragments are in Enir-Ilim which you can't go to until after you kill Messmer? NG+?
>>483922071If you're just spamming the L2 yes. If you don't level DEX though it's regular attacks will be very weak.
>>483921736>>483921826yeah it only looks easy when you watch someone does a clean run. but whenever you try it yourself, you will actually realize that it needs you to memorize the enemies attacks just as much to pull off the big spells.
>>483921946My personal theory is that the any similarities between the Frenzied Flame and the Erdtree/Greater Will is intentional because the FF exists for the sole purpose of destroying it. FF is a mockery of the Golden Order in every way, even down to having sickly glowing yellow eyes like how Marika and her brood have gold ones.
ALL OF THIS POSTING IS MAKING ME FALL IN LOVE WITH MARIKA AND RANNI FRENZYBROS GIVE ME THE STRENGTH TO ENDURE PLEASE
thank god he killed her, I almost got NTR'd
My character is such a hunk, I can't stop looking at him. Still hate Miquella and Radahn for being fags, though.
>>483922135apparently its bugged, and on consoles it requires int, which makes way more fucking sense
is anyone else really excited for the next souls game?before hand there best selling game sold 10 million copiesnow its 25 million and 5 million copies for the DLC almost 3x fucking more sales than dark souls 3 imagine the budget for this next game, they were able to make elden ring just off the money of sekiro, now imagine whats next.obviously more money doesn't equal better game in most cases, but I think in this one it would. They can spend more time on the game, get more resources and have a easier development.We are about to see some crazy shit from fromsoft I believe. They made a DLC have 10 fucking bosses. Imagine if bloodborne 2 is next and its just a massive gothic city that you can explore with unique bosses everywhere because they can afford to do that now. I actually am so excited to see whats next.
>>483922141because he's making shit up and messmer is one of the fights that doesn't give you time to mimic tear at the start. he can't complain about that so he's LARP'ing that he's getting 2-shotted at 60 VIG and an impossible 20 scadufrags.
None of these bosses are memorable, they all have the same delayed combo strings, gap closers and nukes.Aging untouchables are literally winter lanterns, also bootleg orphan of cos lmao.
>what if [annoying enemy] but instead it's 3 of them>what if corner ambush but instead it's double ambush and if the player notices and tries to kite just one of the enemies they all immediately aggro>what if aggrod enemies walk really really slow to bait players into rushing into a waiting group ambush or otherwise waste their time waiting to kite one really slow enemy at a time>what if item guarded by group of mobs is actually just a low level crafting materialreally don't care for this kind of game design, wish they did less of this and more actually fun things
So do you gotta playthrough all the main game shit before you get to the DLC? Can you take that "coward's path" past the elevator and beeline to the DLC areas?
>>483922083red lightning is his op he's beefing with placidusax
>>483921750Based. Glad I’m not the only one. >>483921784If the lord can justify in an interesting way I’ll live with it but as of right now it sucks. >>483921812This is such a good point. You’re onto something. >>483921945Man, it would have be so kino.
>>483921681All of that would be fine if the R2 didn't have absurd stamina costs that makes it unviable to use them like regular fists.Shit, I would've preferred if it was just a Star Fist or Iron Ball reskin, they look so cool but are utterly useless.Actually I might at least be able to use them with a Roar Setup so not all is lost, still sucks though.
I've never played darksouls, should i start with 1 or just move on to 3?
>>483922083>Why does Bayle get struck by lightning at the end anyway?placidusax's nemesis. you can see some of placidusax's missing heads gnawing at bayle's body.
>>483922204you just dodge the attacks, except now you don't need to stay close to get in a few hits. You can dodge away to shoot spells. From far away you can use faster spells to tack on damage if you feel like you'd get punished too much otherwise.

>>483922247On console it requires Int, but the scaling is actually B on Arc. It's ridiculous.
>>483921750>>483922302if you start practicing lucid dreaming right now you can just make the godwyn cutscene in your head and when you wake up it'll feel like it really happened
>>483917013Made a 30s webm to showcase the difference between base game vs dlc, hopefully I get the point across
>>483921784soul of cinder was a great fight though, nostalgia bait with gywns theme aside, it was the best final boss next to isshin theyve done
>>483921491If you get Bayle's heart, choose the chicken wing incant. Its like the dragon slap but it hurts way more.
Dude what the FUCK is this thing
>>483922396Play all of them.Yes even 2.
>>483921262you can roll everything with messmer. even his not-waterfowl.you just have to realize the fight is different. they do their combo, you get a hit in, they do a combo, you get a hit in. most of them have hyperarmor and don't stagger like malenia does.his 2nd phase is easier even if it doesn't look like it; you can get good hits on him after his giant snake combo.
>>483921148>mostly because of so much of the loot just being titanite shardsThere should have been no weapons or armor sets that have to be farmed in this DLC, straight up. It's mind boggling to me that even here we have MMO-tier drop rates for armor and weapons when they have so much underutilized space they could have put chests or corpses holding them. They could even make a game of it by having the set spaced out in pieces across a dungeon, like the Fire Knight set in the Specimen Storehouse or the Ascetic's Set in Belurat. They even did something like that for the Gravebird set and it was a lot of fun tracking them all down.
>>483922396Yes start with 1Try not to get filtered by 23 should be a breeze and is the closest to ER in terms of gameplay
>>483921915dont care about a map, based on the verticality of this zone it would be worthless.
>>483922502a small amount of skill issue in png format

>>483922502His timings took me a while to get and he’s really good at out-spacing roll attacks.Jumping absolutely negates his frost flames attack
>>483921946>>483922225I have a theory that hyetta was actually right, the frenzy flame is the opposite of the greater will, the one great and greater will fragmenting was actually the big bang, the result led to two primordial forces, the creator god of order and the destroyer god of chaos. Anu and padomay if you will.
>"However ruined this world has become, however mired in torment and despair, life endures. Births continue. There is beauty in that, is there not?"So does Melina actually care, or is she just Marika's sock puppet? Isn't it weird the only time she shows any emotion is when she realizes you're about to burn shit up?
>>483922396You're going to find it almost impossible to play other Souls games if you started with this one. I tried to play BB, DS1, and DS3 and they all feel so fucking slow, easy, and bad compared to ER. I should've started with DS1 and worked my way up, starting here was a fucking mistake. This game ruined me for all it's predecessors. It feels like going from test driving a brand new sports car to your grandpa's beat up rusted shitbox from 1964.
>>483922502Orphan of cos but shitty.

>>483921506>>483921506requesting reply
>>483922617literally yes, I've been doing it pretty consistently. If you use a short recovery spell you can bait them into doing a punishable gap closer too.
>>483919574oh and i forgot, all dragonbreaths hit around corners and rot breath deals serious standard damage on things that resist elements
>>483922468Really!?!?@@?!

>>483922772>pest threads (NG only)It's worth also noting that pest threads is useless in the DLC. Amazing in NG base game, but every large boss I tried it on in the DLC got literally tickled by it.
>>483922718Imagine the people that tried farming shit like the Horned Warrior's Greatsword back in Belarut on a blind first run, only to later learn it's NOT a random drop and is guaranteed from one in the literal last area of the damn game I was one of those people
What do you guys think would be the best thing to infuse on the Carian Dueling shield? I thought magic at first to boost its damage pretty high, but it kind of messes up the negation on phys and other types. Guard boost is also a concern of course.
>>483921592How so?
>>483922803The roll timing on the spins is very generous.
Best build for NG+7???
>>483922820Anything else?
>>483920592nah, you want to go to the right of cavalry but they usually dont let you
This would have been a good boss if some of the hitboxes weren't wonky.
>>483922258Lmao they gonna reuse asset again.Just look at the DLC for examples.They have a lot more money, and they still reuse the fucking putrid tree spirit
What's your Endurance leveled to, /erg/?Without having my stats open in front of me, I think mine's 30.Seems low, now that I think about it: top used to getting through Bloodborne with base Endurance.
>>483922978flat defense is a bitch
>>483922978You using the new pest threads or the old ones? The new ones are chargable and hit pretty hard. Been chunking bosses for me.
>>483922286You only need to kill Radahn and Mohg with Mohgwyn Palace Grounds being accessible early on by doing Varre's questline
>make a perfect or near perfect run against a boss>die>flop terribly in another attempt>win regardless, but it doesn't feel good
>>483923065Basically everyone agrees Gaius needs his hitboxes fixed (and a hurtbox added during his charge) and Radahn needs major nerfs. All the other bosses are fine.
>>483923074I was part of the 10-15 "end doesn't matter" gang but now I'm always at 30.
>>483923050There were also several areas in the gaols where you can find jarfriends playing, or shades arranged in ominous ways like the ones surrounding a cowering one in Midra's Manse.
ok i tried respeccing my character, does this seem like a promising build? I like the halo scythe, but i also really like the glowing frisbee skillswould it be more effective to just spec into base requirement physical stats for a weapon, lighting infuse it, and then just go all in on faith? are the frisbees strong enough to go through the rest of the game, and the dlc?
>>483922396Drop 2 if you don’t like it.It will leave a bitter taste in your mouth if you keep forcing it
>>483923059I am talking about *their* (the horseman's) left
>>483923202did you try to use dark souls 1 softcaps lmao
>>483923232the other anon was talking about which direction you circle
>>483923178His hit boxes are fine, you are not supposed to roll through his attacks.
>>48392307455.
>>483923031Yea, I nearly killed him on my second attempt. I just didn't know there was even a horse at first. I'll get him in another few tries at most, probably.
>>483923113Sure is.>>483923123Just the old ones, not Spears. I haven't tried those yet. Regular Pest Threads is worthless in the DLC but I've heard nothing but good things about their big brother.
>>483923202>40 vigor
>>483923162>win regardless, but it doesn't feel goodThis is why I stopped trying. Roll-slop pandering is a mistake. I learned my lesson and saved precious time.
>>483923029From personal experience it's pretty hard to hit enemies consistently with flame lightning as most of the time I just end up grazing them slightly
>>483923178Let me use torrent on Scadutree avatar.The fag is running away like Elden beast.
I’m getting fucked up by that stupid red wolf in the wizard cuck shed. Why can’t I use ashes here?
What if this was a stand alone product? People would be gushing about certain aspects of it, but the absolute letdown and non closure ending would absolutely sour peoples opinions on it if it was not "more eldenring".
>>483923045for ng+7 enemies have 40% more poise so you want things that do extreme dps. personally i think nothing even comes close to the safety and ease of 80/80 int/fth comet spam. you have every defensive buff in the game, every status effect in the game, and range
>finally beat mohg at RL 47>using poison antspur and cold morningstar>now getting walled by red bearI guess it's time to collect some skibidi fragments since I do no damage to him.This will all be worth it...
>>483917997>he's with marikasimple.as an aside, i liked how leda ended up as a paranoid homicidal maniac who likely killed many of her loyal companions.
damn just found out i was supposed to upgrade the mimic
>>483922978worked pretty well for me at bayle, just had to position myself under his ass
>>483923259p-perhaps>>483923306im going to level it up eventually :(
>>483923303the damage for the big spears is really great but the dps is awful due to the long cast time
Marika is MINE!
>>483922726Imagine the age of fracture ending after needling the frenzied flame but right at the end, we see Melina’s shadow step up before the new Elden Lord…£Melina: I was wrong… in your journey, you seemed to have learned more than I’d ever thought one could. Of the failures of those before, and what boons you may gain from them… I wonder… didst thou endure these hardships and sacrifices for mine sake alone… or wouldst thee do it for all in these lands?.. I came to deliver to you what is yours… but perhaps it is not time you receive it yet… I will wait and see the age you bring, and I pray the care you showed me, will be extended to all life.>Melina walks away>Melina: Torrent, I never should’ve doubted your choice. Goodbye, Tarnished Lord. Thank you.>Narrator: They will remember; The Age of Sacrifice
>>48392307430 and it's just barely enough for me to carry everything I want with the havel and fap rings. I like to have at least 20 on any character even if they don't have heavy equip loads
>>483922448First, you gotta charge it and keep holding it even after you think it's over. There is more. It benefits from charging stuff. And from all Incantations. If you can't hit players for over 1k with it, you're doing something wrong and I can't tell you what unless I see pictures or videos.
>>483923282Anon several of his hitboxes literally don't match his animations. You get fucking phantom hit. That's not "fine".
>>483923278ahh right he was confused
>>483923162I don't know how the fuck I beat Bayle first try.

summoning people seems to often make fights harder as the people you summon often don't carry their weight.
>>483923345the red wolf a radagon?i can help if you want to summon
>>483923428I have beaten him exclusively on torrent, never witnessed his issues.

Help to make a build around these?>Lordsworn Straight Sword>Brass ShieldI like to parry, sometimes do guard counter, but usually in exploring. I have been using Bleed, specifically Bloody Slash, lord of Blood, and Rotten Winged. I don't know what to do from here, even though I'm technically in a late game.
>>483923532You mean that cave before the rot boss?
Made this list for the base game. Anything similar to this in the DLC other than Stone Golems patting slimes and shadow people in grief at Belurat's graveyard?>>483923196>>483922820Thank you.
>>483923597Okay? That doesn't mean said issues don't exist my man.>>483923532Bro finish the damn game.
Thinking of switching to dex/faith to use messmer's spear, what are some other good dex/faith weapons.
>>483923740anything with lightning infusion
>>483923532ONCE UPON A TIME ROMINA'S TOWN/CHURCH/VILLAGE WAS BURNED DOWN BY MESSMER, THE FELL GOD OF ROT SENT A BUD WHICH SHE FOUND AND PROCEEDED TO USE, THE ROT SPREADS VIA HER FOLLOWERS AND SCORPIONS I GUESS.
>>483923532That's Romina's new domain. As for why she is protecting the fucking tree is the actual question I'd like to know.
>>483923595Ps5?
>>483923561the dlc it is with how the ai will 180 mid comboalso pray the fucking host actually collected fragments
Decided to replay the whole game on a new character to prepare for the DLC, which I havent even bought yet. Is it weird that I was able to summon an NPC after the area boss was defeated solo? Black Blade Kindred boss might have been my cleanest fight yet, I only took damage twice. I remember it being way harder my first time around.
A real frenzied flame player would burn Melina and then engulf the the rest of the world in fire too.
>>483923734What I am saying is the fight is designed around torrent.
only just realised bayle uses his tail to support himself because of the missing leg
>>483923836i don't think she's protecting the tree, i think the tree just happens to be next to her home - the church where she is inventing scarlet rot in >>483919852
>inappropriate activity detected right as I get summonedwhat the fuck
>>483923740I'm not sure what your build is, but I am;>40 Dex / 60 FaithMessmer RP build.I don't use anything else when I fight players, but when I'm doing PVE;>Treespear>Wave of Piss
>>483923926No fight should be designed around forcing you to use Torrent. It should be an option like spirit ashes for example.
>>483923905you got gud
>>483923876ah, sorry anon im PC, the best opening for it is the little 3 hit combo, and when hit starts spamming spells try to roll into them so they dont hit you after the rollit dies pretty fast and can stagger easily though
Could you use the Elden Rings to make every woman have massive boobs?
>>483922258I'm not going excited for any future games.They have all the money they could need and they just made an empty world filled with reused enemies everywhere with unfun bosses.I don't get fun exploration, they fucked up the lore, and I didn't get fun fights.They are dead to me until they can prove themselves again
>>483924068Yeah my problem is I’m mentally handicapped plus only like level 30 with an axe that’s slow as hell. Thanks though
Are great katanas actually good? Slow + no hyper armor sounds like a bad combo.
>>483922258You'll get Armored Core 7 first and you'll fucking love it you whore.I'll love it too.
what is the best infusion for the swift spear? bleed or poison?
I wonder how much of a menace Midra would become if we weren't right there to put him down
>>483924076yes since there is no one controlling it you can do whatever you want once you become elden lord
These load times are murder
>>483924049>you got gudOr maybe its just that I decided to use a shield + guard break this time
>>483924117They're long and have lots of pokes.Think about them as heavier heavy thrusting swords with bleed rather than katanas.
>>483923740You could try the Barbed Staff-Spear, the Ash of War also applies bleed from range (though I guess it's more Faith than Dex).
>>483924014Why do you only want to roll??it's not even a bulid issue, everyone can ride torrent for free.
>>483923561I tried throwing down my sign for Lion to see if I could get a few extra Rune Arcs: a host with two phantoms gives so much fucking health to the boss, it's insane.No longer easy mode.Invading, on the other hand, remains total hell.
>>483921946she hates the elden ring, which 'commands the stars' aka the ayyliens which includes herself. my theory is that she used her influence to orchestrate a coup against the elden ring, oust it, and become the elden ring herself within marika's erdtree.
>>483924172>>483924076Why isn't this one of the endings?
>>483922772>you don't really need thisScrubbing imps off of the ceiling makes dungeons a lot less annoying
>Messmer beheaded every statue of Marika except the one in his room.NOBODY GETS TO LOOK AT MOMMY BUT ME.
>>483924076Probably. You could get them pregnant too.>>483924110>Armored Core VI gets armor customization, good performance, "NG+ changes", ultrawide support>None of those get added in Elden Ring>One of the biggest complaints is the reused assets>You find the same 4-5 enemies everywhere, repeated bosses in the base game also return againUgh...
>Bayle has 4 gapclosers>One is a jump to the sky electric slam. Easy to dodge, good punish, okay damage if failed>One is an arm thrust, super easy to dodge, high damage if failed, massive punish window>One is a biting electric charge. Super high damage, low but still worthwhile punish zone, hard to dodge>One is a nigh impossible to dodge charge into a spinning tailswipe that covers half the arena in Bayle's flailing body and doesn't give a chance to punishGenuinely what is with this balance
tree spirit suck just as bad as in the base game, why the fuck do they keep making me fight them. out of everything they could reuse why this
>>483924173PS4?
>>483922396if you actually want the full experience, start with demon's souls.
>go to coliseum>asshole spams me with sleep arrows and backhand spam>put my own on and out spam him and kill him>sends me a friend add on Steam because I have DMs disabled and probably wants to REEEE at meno way fag, don't be a bitch
>>483924313guardcounters absolutely shit on imps, there's a couple normal weapon skills listed on the list for a reason, upgrade a straightsword or something. they aren't especially strong to elements either and if you're prioritizing faith you will be oneshotting them with a charged black flame.
Floating skulls, bug or invisible path? No messages on the ground to help me so I come to you guys
>>483924376>Marika choosing a Tarnished as Elden Lord?>NOOOOMessmer has serious issues.
>>483924405I think two tree sentinels next to each other was the funniest part.You also see how lazy they are with field bosses considering almost everyone is now surrounded by enemies
>>483923614In the base game sure, in the DLC it's often not worth it to summon unless you're summoning people you know.
>>483924547throw a shiny rock
>>483924547your prism stones?
I have 3 characters. One I beat the game with and 2 others that are near the end of the game. I have no fucking clue what is going on as it has been 2 years. I don't remember what quests I need to do where or what I was trying to do with one of the characters. I have rivers of blood on one guy and I read it's no longer good. That was an arcane faith type guy.I want to delete them all with 300 combined hours and just start fresh. Ugh.
>>483924547invisible path>>483924561tree sentinels are just there for lore since they guard marika's home village
Honestly not the worst boss in the DLC, that remains dancing lion, but definitely kinda annoying. Always felt like it was slightly out of reach while still being able to hit me. The only attack I really hated is the frontal frost flame attack though it comes out REALLY fast.
>>483924610>>483924612Forgot about them, haven't needed one since the sewers. Thanks.
>>483924547You're not a true Souls player until you jump off cliffs just to see if you'll live.
>>483922796Had they given some ashes of war to crossbows and ballistae it might've helped out in choosing it over the cannons.Imagine something as shitty as sky shot on a bow, but now on a weapon that can shoot explosive greatbolts for indirect mortar fire. It would've been something at least.

>a thousand year voyage under the wisdom of the moon>people actually still believe it's not an outergodYou know why Ranni did not need to become a god? Because she was a vessel for one.

>>483924708>Honestly not the worst boss in the DLC, that remains dancing lionuh oh
>>483924803game is so damn beautiful
The wiki says that Midra is weak to bleed, but earlier, I slapped some blood grease on the Backhand Blades and turned on the beyblade right at the start of the fight proper, and didn't get a bleed proc.Is Fextra full of shit once again?
>>483924819No shit its an outer god, every god that isn't golden is an outer god.
>>483924850Dancing lion is actually just shit, unless you mean I haven't reached the worst boss yet.
IT'S OUR BOOOOOOOI
>>483924708i don't like this guy, he's kinda neat but not fun at all to fight
>>483924920Oh anon it gets much worse
>>483924892i dunno about "weak" but he has about as much bleed resist as a normal enemy wearing cloth, which isn't that much. bleed grease isn't that much bleed if your weapon doesn't already have it
Now that invasions are literally unsalvageable did the system at least have a good run? Did you guys have at least some memorable moments?
>>483924819Ymir said that the moons were just rock without any celestial significance. GW created the cosmos and Lands Between. Closest things to gods in space are Astels.
>>483924819The "vessel" line is specifically tailored to the Mohg/ Radahn situation.
>>483924547Shit dude I got totally spoilered on that the moment I got near.
"Not fun to fight" describes every boss in the DLC. Relanna and midra are only liked for the spectacle.

>>483925038what do you mean?the invader died, nothing of value was lost
>>483920024She didn't fuse with anything, she became it. The game is full of things that are transfigured into other things through divine influence.>"smithing was once considered a divine art">trolls and normal people hanging out in the mines turn to stone>normal people hanging out in the glintstone mines turn to glintstone>Azur and Lusat get too involved with the primeval current, turn to glintstone>the fire giants and trolls worship the Fell God>the Fell God manifests itself in their chests (and the trolls' bodies being transfigured into branches and roots probably has a connection to their betrayal of the Fell God for the Golden Order)>Godwyn's corpse propagating endlessly and manifesting on crabs>everything involving the CrucibleI'm sure there are more examples that I can't remember off hand, but this is just how the world of Elden Ring works on a metaphysical level. I'm not trying to be pedantic when I say that it's strange that this still seems to be poorly understood two years after the game's release, with all the loretubers running around.She became a centipede because centipedes are a symbol of corruption and evil, broadly speaking, and because it's an homage to FromSoft's long tradition of insect-ladies.

>>483925226>DaS3it's DS3 bro>>483925280overleveled>>483925331>>>483925276>distortion?yes, thanks
>>483925280Some of them are hidden in really really retarded locations that makes them impossible to find without a guide.>>483925341Just perfume cheese it for the rewards and never do it again.
Miquella could've easily been a girl and done all this heart charming stuff. I think Miyazaki might actually be gay
are there ANY new good merchants or bell bearings to buy shit from? I feel like the npcs in the dlc are dogshit all around- can we buy infinite max upgrade stones?- can be buy infinite larval tears?- can we buy infinite rune arcs?if not,fuck it, gonna mod this shit>>483925280idk what they were thinking not giving us some excess frags. just pushign people to go to ng+ or use some shitty guide, even tho they said in an interview they dont want people relying on guides...
>>483924954Wait til he summons
>>483924920>unless you mean I haven't reached the worst boss yet.If the reason you hated the Dancing Lion is because you felt like you were fighting the camera and particle effects instead of a boss, then you haven't seen the worst of it yet.
>>483923687There was a group of Messmer soldiers just after the bridge in the big huge camp they have there, like 3 or 4, they were all checkin' each others swords out, like holding them out for each other to see. I sat there and watched them for a minute or so, it was pretty cool, just a few bros chillin comparing swords and shit.Then I killed them.
>>483925038>wasting precious i-frames on hardswapping your fucking helmetAnd you're telling me this is a Twitch streamer? Yeah, I believe itAnyways, the DLC changes nothing for me because I like to invade from 20-80 and enjoy killing password phantoms
>>483925038>people just standing around spamming long animations at someone with invincibilityThose are literally a free kill for for even mediocre invaders.
>>483925038>all that re-equippingFor what fucking purpose
>find a second dancing lion>okay that's kind of a lazy copy paste but I guess it's kinda cool to rematch him for a sense of scale on how much more powerful I've gotten since the beginning of th-OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
>>483925226ds3 is a horrible game and I'm glad I don't have to come back to it
>>483925479idk bro have you played danganronpa
>>483925487You can now buy toxic mushrooms, string and root resin>>483925550>they were all checkin' each others swords outGay
>enter shadow keep>find hidden ladder and waterfall, take a tombstone down>defeat two furnace golems and keep going>go all the way down the cliff>find a bunch of flies and even their village, keep going>now find a catacombs, there's a back exit>now in abyssal woodsJesus it just keeps going and goingThis is some DS1/DS2 type stuff
>>483925092i enjoyed the uhhhhh flower. and in retrospect, once i realized i can just wait out the lightning phase, lion wasn't too bad.
whats with the hate on these? i get that theyre empty but why cant they be? why does everything have to be brimming with content? its not like its entirely useless either, you literally get a top 5 talisman in the entire game for blowing the first one and a top 20 for the second, i fail to see why you would complain about doing this as the crimson seed talisman+1 is a universal talisman good on all builds except for if ur doing a no hit obv, and it works towards a remembrance boss.Sure you don't get rewarded IN THE AREA but you get rewarded for doing the quest with several spells, weapons, remembrance boss, some of the best talismans in the game and armor.Do people just complain about everything with this game? This issue is so blown out of proportion, people have a fucking stroke when a area doesn't have 50 bosses in it. The main reason I replay this game more than something like bloodborne is in bloodborne I have to do bloodstarved beast, in elden ring, I can just fucking skip it.
>>483925341cheese it with perfumes or something
>>483924954I actually wish this one was in the base game, because by the time of the DLC I was more than prepared to fuck up a Revenant.
>i get that theyre empty but why cant they be? why does everything have to be brimming with content?Bait
>>483925341Nigga just cheese bosses you don’t like to fight.I started doing this shit when I realized I will still hate the fight even if I memorized the boss movesets
>>483925532Yes that's exactly why I disliked dancing lion. Great to know.
>>483925332Much as I hate him for being a gigantic faggot, Saint_Riot taught me to invade, but those lessons don't apply in ER.No turn n burn, no viable jack-of-all-trades build type outside of Stormveil invasions.Sad.
>>483925589hehehhehhhehee
>>483925589That fight made me genuinely laugh out loud.
>>483925626this is 4chan so yes
>>483925446It's DaS3, and always will be.
>>483925626You went through cerulean area which is already empty. Then, you went here, and it’s another empty area. Empty area can be done, but don’t make it continuous.
>>483925605>I'll explore this area first and then head to this one>4 hours later and I remember about itFirst playthrough is too good.>>483925626The new finger (?) enemies are boring as fuck to fight and the area itself looks ugly, specially compared to everything else.
>>483925626I was disappointed they didn't have much in them except fucking AIDS snake fuckers, but it was aesthetically pleasing, just a huge WTF area of Fingers implying a civilization or something.
i hate stored l1s
The pvp peaked in ds2.
>>483925113lips can drive everyman crazy
>>483924954YAAAAAAASS I HECKIN LOVE FIGHTING THE SAME ENEMIES OVER AND OVER AGAIN EVEN IN THE DLC THAT TOOK TWO YEARS TO BE MADE PLEASE TAKE A GIANT SHIT INSIDE MY MOUTH MIYAZAKI SAMAAAAAAAA
>>483925841>>>483925446 (You)>It's DaS3, and always will be.never has been, never will be
>>483925858they are lampreys, people who tried to turn themselves into fingers
Ranni ending - Marika crumbles away, no longer required, replaced with the outergod of the moon/darkmoon. Ranni did nothing to become a god, as we have witnessed through miquella, we basically have definitive proof of this now that she 100% is giving control to an outergod. Lord of chaos ending - Marika crumbles away, no longer required, replace with the lord of frenzy, who is only able to burn everything away with access to the ring. All the other endings - Marika is utilized for your choice of the ring, as having a god is REQUIRED, Marika is still the god of the chosen age.
>>483925626>Beat Ancient Dragon Man>Get a forked path>One path goes up to an empty mountain>Other goes to a red area>It's empty aside from reused bosses>You can go to a blue area from the red area>It's empty>You can go to the finger area from the blue area>It's empty
>>483925626They could have put in some basic things like acouple of invaders around them or something unique to such a huge area. Everyone that goes there without knowing will explore a huge tract of land and find nothing for it. At least there are rememberance duplicators but you probably find them very quickly before actually exploring the ruins.It'd be so easy to just have a little content in there, something. A catacomb, invaders, ghosts with lines, anything.
>>483925487Did you find the Moldmonger's Bell Bearing?Kino stuff.
>Mohg was brainwashed >Ansbach was brainwashed So was Varre, the surgeons, Okina and Eleanora brainwashed by Miquella into being blood crazed freaks?
>>483925891It's a good smile. Would kiss. Would love to try and make her smile more.
>>483925762average 4chan users>There is too much open space>Its a open world game>B-B-BUT WHAT??? OPEN WORLD? WHATS THAT? THE OPEN WORLD IS OPEN? MUST BE BAD GAME DESIGN>Just don't play it then>NO! IT NEEDS TO FIT MY EXACT NEEDS OR ITS A BAD GAME! SOMETHING SOMETHING SHITTY BOSS DESIGN SOMETHINGI don't get it, these people are constantly saying this shit about the game but then when you ask them then just don't play it they just go "I don't" SO WHY ARE YOU ON THE BOARD?
>>483925994nah that was just their thing
>>483925889Where do I get the infinite use red eye orb in ds2?
>>483925626Because if you are going to do an empty area with only the location being the highlight of the journey it needs to be super fucking impactful. Sure, eventually it LEADS to a really cool fight, but there needed to be more than "toot horn, leave"
>>483925226We'll never reach those highs ever again, will we? God, just imagine how kino it would have been to have faction covenants that turned legacy dungeons into warzones. People allying with the Carians and protecting the school as Carian Knights, coming to an accord with Morgott (or replacing him) and becoming wardens of Lleyndell, Recusants working like purple phantoms and turning Volcano Manor into a free-for-all. It would have been glorious carnage.
What's Thiollier's "weary of life" option? Just another game over like Trina's?
>>483925626>It doesn't have to have content ok???? just watch the movie i mean game
>>483926092it lets you get a quest item you can roofie the dragon priestess with to get her spell and summon
>>483925626They wanted more open world slop (caves, catacombs, mines) even though when it was the base game, people were complaining about every environment feeling like an artificial excuse to populate the world with open world slop (caves, catacombs, mines).My thought process was just:>Wow, this is cool>Oh, there's nothing here except a cookbook, a remembrance shrine, crafting materials for consumables, and some mysterious thing I can't interact with>Now that I understand this, I can't just enjoy the atmosphereWhich is exactly what I did with the second ruin.>>483925854Cerulean Coast has>a dragon (boring)>a small open world section full of demi-humans, a couple cool INT weapons, an a scadutree fragment>a mausoleum boss>a legacy dungeon with a remembrance boss (the fissure)>the upper area (Charos' Hidden Grave) is technically part of Cerulean Coast, like the lower and upper levels of Rauh are two halves of the same area>a deathbird (boring)>another cool INT weapon>scadutree fragments from a hippo>a gaol dungeonThe "Cerulean Coast is empty" meme needs to end.
>Elden Ring DLC is blatantly unfinished and lacking in polish, no interactions between it and the base game, no new endings, no new mechanics, etc.>B&W adds a proper conclusion and send off to Geralt’s story, multiple different endings for the DLC, base game acknowledges the DLC’s existence, adds new mutations system, adds dying to armor, adds dozens of new quests, new enemies, and things to do>SotE costs $40, B&W costs $20There is no way anyone with a functioning brain thinks SotE is actually better than B&W.
>>483925881This isn't a no blessing run. Nice try, though.
>>483926030This complaint is not being said only on 4chan. Sorry.
>>483926076Damn, now I'm sad.All because From had to cater to the fags who can't deal with the bad red man.Or just play offline.
>>483926076I am extremely disappointed the entire Great Rune Holders weren't all covenants that you could align with. The entire thing is perfect for it.
>>483925945>get mad when its empty>get mad when its not when they reuse bosseshigh levels of autism on this onelets have unique bosses everywhere! free recess for everyone! billions of dollars for everyone! no more homework!!!these are childish wants and anyone with half a brain would understand.
>>483925626There is next to nothing there, like literally nothing. They are these cool mysterious ruins that you see from afar and wonder exactly what are they like considering the type of stuff they are related to and they are almost entirely empty, like literally just a few crafting items on the floor here and there. There are times when it's okay to do something like that like what they did with marika's village but no 2 giant interesting looking ruins that are huge.
>>483926092Gives you some sleep poison that is deadly to any regular mortal. Only known interaction is with the dragon priestess to get her as an ash summon.
Ouch
>>483925226YOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>483925689It'd be so fucking easy to just zoom out the damn camera for fights like that, it's just baffling that we're like seven games into this formula and it's still a problem.
>>483925287>>483925508>>483925674I just loved seeing Boatboi again, but no worries about the Revenant. I brought the cannon imp (LOVE THIS LIL' NIGGA LIKE YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE) and that fucker both stunned him and tanked the revenant while I shank Boaty.
Shadow of the Erdtree is the result of giving From too much slack.
how do you dodge the bayle attack where he charges forward into another charge into a tailswipe

>>483919152radahn is an unfair fight.almost everyone that beats him uses op builds or shield + thrusting. >muh no hit playersyeah, some people are very good at games; that doesn't mean much for the majority.
>>483926101shut the fuck up aoko. Mahoyo was a movie, not a game. There weren’t any choices to make.
>>483926030One thing that does really bother me about the Open World aspect is the lack of details that sell that people used to live there. No desolate farms, no outhouses, no proper villages, just dungeons and the world itself is laid out like a dungeon.And the villages that do exist could only support like a family or two.
>>483926273NIGGERSLAYER was really sweating in this one.
>>483926237it is though. look at how much damage i take from one swing
>>4839263712 well timed circle presses
Can frenzy make a good invasion build?
this is honestly a fun fight, music is on point too
>>483926330And the fags in this thread eat it up anyway, so fromsoft will pull this shit again.Remember when fucking lost Izalith got shit on?
>>483925626I hate them because neither of them had a lamprey-man spirit ash I could use.
idk why people are so butthurt about the finger ruins, abyssal woods, and even jagged peak. each of these areas was clearly an experiment in open world design, and while 2/3 were disappointing, it at least shows a willingness on fromsoft's part to do something other than>hey here's a big open field full of random shit, have funthis gets extremely tiring by the time you reach the altus in the base game, because you know exactly what to expect from every area: more of the same. i personally thought that ancient ruins of rauh was a great experiment in open world design that evolves mt. gelmir's semi-linear design into something that feels like a massive dungeon where you can use torrent. jagged peak is also fantastic, with the exception of the ancient dragon being un-fun to fight and ruining the build-up to bayle.anyways, the flaws with abyssal woods and the finger ruins are obvious, so i won't go into them.
>>483926273now this is gameplay
>>483926458It's because you're not taking enough damage that I can tell this isn't 0 blessings.
>>483926490it was broken before the dlc came out
>>483924236invading in catacomb areas is easy rune arcs even if you dont sweat out for it
>can't summon Ranni and have her piggyback on us for an Elden Lord and God chicken fight
>>483926502You would probably beat it if you were not some cunt that took pictures of their tv with their cellphone.
do you think this level of NPC interaction will continue
>>483926502I really like second phase music
Been chilling around level 30, helping people on early coop up to Leyndell trying out bunch of the new DLC weapons and armour, very relaxing. After getting assblasted by Radahn it feels kind of nice to fight good ol' honest Godrick and other greatest hits like the Moonveil tunnel wyrm that loves squashing 300 hp hosts with his Tigrex charge times three.
>inapropriate activity detective>returning to main menu>start_protected_game.exe (ELDEN RING) stopped respondingnice EAC there steam
>>483926259Marika's village?
>>483926628it's literally a screenshot
>>483926623I would have accepted Radahn if that was the substitute. That would’ve been so kino
>>483926272The dancer set is pure sexo. I guess I'll make a character using Godskin Swaddling Cloth + Crimson-Sapping Cracked Tear.
>always loved playing as a greatshield tank in these games, even when they were shit like in DS3>people just think I'm a cheesefag now
>>483926619Might have to do it in Darklight for a laugh, then.
>>483926674I think they did something in the latest update, it has given me false positives twice and kicked me out
>>483926628>sociopath doesn't know what dithering is>>483926649... what level? the NPCs aren't any deeper than what fromsoft has done before. a second playthrough really illuminates the flaws with how they do things, especially when you're playing errand boy in the middle of the leta, ansbach, and freya triangle in shadow keep.
>>483926684you can find her home village in the DLC, it's small and empty except for 2 items that give some lore.
STOP summoning me at radahn at level fucking 8 i BEG
>>483926721sauce
>>483925626The ruins were 100% going to be some 2 finger alien DLC that expanded on the base game's lore but then they were told to just focus on Miquella because everyone wanted twink dick, so they just reused the assets for some random ass questline that didn't even contribute to the DLC plot
Dumb question but are there any other swords besides Star-Lined and Blasphemous that glow red or blue and do beams, I'm trying to cosplay The Monado but with Incantations as Arts
>>483926649No, we'll never get anything as kino as that NPC boss fight again. And to be real, Ansbach carried most of the emotional weight of that moment.
>>483923368I like the idea of Miquella recruiting Leda to his elite order of handpicked Needle Knights, and then discovering that she's murdered every single one of them, and he has to brainwash her to stop murdering all his other forcesShe'd have gone after Malenia I bet
>>483926556Jagged Peak being a build up for a boss fight is very impressive. And considering how much people love Igon I would say it worked.>>483926672Your tarnished looks good.
>>483926030Play more open world games.
>>483926721Post the source, already.
>>483926628the fuck are you talking about mentally ill retard
>spend hours assembling everything for an invasion build>it's complete irredeemable dog shit because i forgot every single invasion has at least 1 person spamming ridiculously OP L2s / magichaha WHOOPS, SILLY ME
Here's how you fix the Finger Ruins>Have the center locked by some strange contraption>In front of it is a yellow item pickup that's a fragment of a carving, with more scattered around the ruins>Carvings tell the story of a girl getting lost amidst the ruins and eventually finding something horrific>Fight a miniboss version of a giant fingercreeper>Toot horn>Shaman Village is under the same lock>Do the same thing again>Toot horn>You now have access to Shaman village>You learn the girl finding all of the weird finger shit was Marika after doing the second one>Return to Ymir>Fight Finger Mother fresh off finding out that Marika made contact with this thing and it's what kicked off the plot.It's not that fucking hard. It doesn't need a trillion dev hours to have some nerd write a lock and key system for a barrier.
>bayle just deciding he's not going to have any openings today and instantly cancels every recovery into another move that puts his head up out of reach.Fucking hate this dragon
>>483926672What is this armor
>>483926556Jagged peak is kino because it's direct and culminates with one of the best fights from has ever done. Abyssal woods would be nearly as fucking kino if it did not have side paths that were 100% useless clearly cut content. Finger ruins needed to be a fight to access the horn. This is not experimentation, this should be fucking obvious to anyone that's played a fucking video game.
>>483926935No you don't get it bro you can just soak int he scenery that's enough reward you will NOT ask for content
>>483923976Why dont we just walk around or ask her nicely if we can pass through
>>483926649felt really sad that they all end up killing each other
>>483926854MLGS
>>483926604
>been using shitty coomer armor on my character for the whole game>decide to wear the heaviest and best armor while fighting radahn to see if I can survive shit better>still dying in 2/3 hits same as beforeWhat even is the point of armor in these games anymore?
>>483926649The actual quest steps are quite messy and easy to break/miss, but the conclusion is pretty fucking rad
>>483926814>>483926913https://x.com/picco__/status/1806013557274038347There's a cock. Hope you guys don't mind.
>>483926556Finger ruins leads to great questline though. Loved the two finger-bossfights and all the Ymir saga.
>>483926761I meant that they talk to each other
>>483926918you deserve nothing good anyways
How the fuck do people climb jagged peak in co op without torrent? is it even possible to summon people there?
>>483926490lolMadness was already OP as fuck and they just added a ton of support to it.
are either of the bayle spells good?
>>483927007Abyssal woods definitely could have either been 50% smaller. Also the winter lanterns should have been truly unkillable until you beat Midra or maybe if you use Nanaya's torch on them to "burn away" the protection, because parrying them is just such a lame way to do it.
>>483927119More irritated by the dark-skinned_male.
>>483927209just for this i'm going back on my frenzy / golden crux build and 1-shotting some nerds. you did this.
>>483927110Armor is next to meaningless other than maybe a 10% damage reduction if you are lucky, and poise, it's all about the talismans and buffs.
>>483927234no
>>483917212Okay why the FUCK did we never get Miriel's turtle Pope hat??? We got a whole ass Pope set in Dark Souls 2
>>483927220you cant summon there
>>483926273twink gayness is twink gayness no matter what. anor londo and ringed city clusterfucks were the shit
>>483926556Finger ruins is annoying because you spent an hours looking for every corners to find anything like skibidi fragments, and then you find another area with the same shit.If this shit wasn’t back to back, I wouldn’t mind it that much.
>>483926891Thank you kindly>>483926994Pelt of Ralva, Iron Rivet Armor, Iron Rivet Gauntlets and Rotten Duelist Greaves which you can't see but feels like they go nicely with it
>>483925041he didn't say that.he just said the moon is basically insignificant considering the vastness of space. the moon is just a moon, no matter if it's a god and gives powers.
>>483927110actual heavy armor matters
So there really, REALLY, REALLLY AND TRULy is no change in anything the base game has when you finish the DLC completely?Not even a Sif-tier change?
>>483927110Scadutree Fragments increase your damage res, so using heavy armor is literally pointless. It doesn't increase a lot. Same as using things like Opaline Hardtear.>>483927240I refuse to parry the Winter Lanterns. I refuse to learn how to parry them.
>>483927119even better
>>483927343no
>>483926842What the hell do you mean, you literally got Astel 2 bossfight out of the bells.
>>483927234>are .. spells good?no
>>483927240Freeing torrent from being skurred after midra was dead would have been nice as well, but would have made the cut content even more obvious.
>>483927110Armored only ever mattered in DS2
>>483927234Tyranny is worthless, full stop. Flame Lightning does very good damage and is kind of like a baby between Dragonclaw and Dragonmaw but it has some issues.>Poor hitbox, smaller than dragonmaw and seems to be kinda buggy sometimes in not hitting when it visibly should>Lacks infinite HA like DragonmawLike I said it hits really hard though, high risk/medium reward. Neither is very worth it right now but until they get buffed Flame Lightning is the only decent one.
Hmmm, I'm a bit of a pickle, I want to talk some sense into that giant golem over there but I can't find my way up despite walking round the place a couple times. Any tips?
>>483927302Isn't that hat reused for Miriel?>>483927404G A Y
>>483927438did you forget that you can literally facetank at least half the game with havels in ds1
>>483927478you gotta wind all the way around to near the boss, then there's a lift that goes up to it
>>483927314The real fucked up thing is one finger ruin actually does have some shit, but it's just the gesture and a mausoleum.
>>483927493I guess but it was literally Havel's & Dusk Crown that were the only important gear
>>483927406You got a single bossfight in exchange for 1/4th of the map's area being empty plains with some snakes. Them putting in what was probably the penultimate boss of an alien DLC into this one instead to reuse the asset isn't much
>>483927470Flame Lightning also has the benefit of borrowing Dragonclaw's chaincast recovery cancel despite not being a combo spell, so it's basically unpunishable and has very low recovery in practice.
>>483927234>>483927470>>Poor hitbox, smaller than dragonmawMeant smaller than dragonclaw.
>>483927478There's a whole fucking interior area dedicated to approaching that golem and then the lift to actually get you up is extremely well hidden.
>>483927240Abyssal Woods stealth section should have just been a part of the manse.>beat Jori>erase the open world section of Abyssal woods off the fucking map>make it a short path leading up to the manse on one side, the church of Marika on the other>still put 1 or 2 winter lanterns on the former path>enter manse>do 1st half>exit into inner manse courtyard>it's a hedge maze full of winter lanterns>re-enter manse>do 2nd halfWould have been much more enjoyable, it didn't need to be so fucking massive especially considering you can't use Torrent.
>>483927580it was havels until they nerfed dark wood grain ring, then giant dad
>>483927604Yeah but the hitbox is screwy as fuck and you can get knocked out of the wind-up VERY easily. It needs more HA and the hitbox fixed at minimum. Tyranny though? Awful, worthless. Needs a massive buff.
>>483926649i really liked itansbach was a homeyi wish this game had covenants and he went on to be the leader of the mohg covenant post surviving the dlcnpcs having dialogue during boss fights its great
>>483927470>mfw both the bayle incantations are kinda fucking garbageI don't know how they managed to fuck that up so badly. God this dlc is such a fucking let down in the weirdest most easily fixed ways.
>>483927705i liked having it in the woods and the first time i did it was great. but they should have a way for you to allow you to use torrent
>>483926030>>NO! IT NEEDS TO FIT MY EXACT NEEDS OR ITS A BAD GAME! Yes. At the very least it's worse than it could've been.
>>483927561>>483927685Do I have to tell whoever's behind this fog what I think of him to get to the golem?
>>483927585There's two bossfights though, both good.
>>483924708He is not that bad, his wombo combo only becomes an issue if you are too close into his face and horse is funny to dodge, otherwise he has bunch of attacks like double ground slam that give you free punish with anything, he isn't too hard to stagger even with milady and his main gimick is constantly circling around you, also I already forgot but at least one of his slam attack will do nothing to you if you end up in front of his face, did him at 5 skibidis. My main complaints would go to that circular flame attack because it's off camera and you just need to know at a moment's notice. >that remains dancing lionOpinion discarded, he is the only boss so far besides Rellana that is both epic grandeur anime fight and isn't an aids to fight, fucking hippo is dogshit aids running around and hugging his ass at all times because you can do jack shit in front of him due to FUCKING INSTANT bite attack and now he starts fucking shitting his motherfucking quills everywhere yeah, so fun to fight what a fucking retarded boss at least Putrescence circles around you to go in, not dashing and shitting crap everywhere oh shitaidsrape fat fuck hippo dashed into the corner guess what you can't sniff his fucking asshole so you are not doing shit.
>>483927760fix radahn being shoehorned in
>>483927760Bro just wait for the first balance patch before screaming the sky is falling
I got summoned to the dlc before beating Mohg and when I reloaded the game later it spawned me in the manse and now I can skip that whole section but can't open the door from the inside, I had to beat Mohg to be able to swap back over to the dlc map though
>>483927760most spells from makes are shit, it was actually a fucking miracle that they buffed most of the bad ones, sometimes twice, in the year after release instead of just ignoring them forever
Can invaders turn off areas they can invade? Like how coopers can turn off areas?
>>483918425So were the Omens the result of the Hornsent cursing Marika and whatever she stood for, or are the Omens and Hornsent the same thing
I already killed gaius, where do I fight his reskin "boar rider" boss?
>>483927849no
>>483927907No :)Invaders get literally nothing, fuck you
>>483925626Making a large area that contains nothing in it is bad design you fucking retard
>>483927896Can't you do wrongwarp shenanigans to get out?
>>483927907>Invaders ever getting anything good with nu-From appealing to casuals more than ever
>>483927760I'm just enjoying perfumes being busted after desperately wanting to play a perfumer build since the game's release.
>>483927937same thing
>>483927937Same thing. Marika calls them Omens as a slur because she fucking hates them and had them imprisoned and tortured. She's racist against them for what they did to her people.
Is this any good? Seem interesting, but kinda slowly.
>>483927980More riding around the place it is then
>>483927896I died against a boss where i raged alt f4'd and went to bed. The next day i loaded back in and the game had me outside the boss gate for a boss i had not even seen yet that was miles away from the boss i had been fighting. Dlc has some weird shit.
how much does ng+ scaling affect the dlc? is it a noticable enough difference or just about the same
>>483928069anon don't take pictures while you're drunk
>>483928069
anons please I'm losing fucking hope the new carian AoW is slow as shit all my spells are too slow to cast I'm really starting to feel like the only way to fucking play this game is to grab the DMGS and hope frost + Stagger deals with every boss
>>483928219>>483928219>>483928219
>>483928001>>483927981damn...What about crucible tongue and centaur, where can I find those?
>>483927907that's pretty funny anon
>>483928045>>483928057So where the fuck did they come from, really, if they had their own relatively stable city/society in the shadow realm before Marika became the top bitch of the world>dude curse lmaoWho cast the curse
>>483928252uh oh...
>>483928045How are they the same thing when two of her kids are omens and are fathered by Godfrey?She couldn't have been being raped by that point in the story
>>483927760It's because both spells are just lazy recycling of existing spells.
>>483928252Fromsoftware is a company filled with bastards who hate any and all frogbros
>>483928069anon, i think you are having a strokeplease call a medical professional
>>483927907Turning off where you co-op turns off invading there too.
Okay, now this is a based message. All the retards dropping but holes and snakes around every hole and ladder are fags.
>>483928263Hornsent cursed Marika which is why all her kids are omens or fucked in other ways>>483928215Int spells suck compared to just smacking them with a weapon
>>483927828>>483927425Being able to summon Torrent there wouldn't fit the lore they wrote.
>>483928263It's not a curse, it's a gift from the Crucible. All children have a small chance of being born as hornsent. That's why they have crazy crucible powers.
Lion's Claw made the Messmer fight a complete jokeYou guys complain about nothing
>fight messmer 15 times>get him to 70% onceaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggghhhhhhhhhhhhh
>>483928889i see very few complaints about messmer
>>483929045>>483928915
>>483929134thats not someone complaining
>>483928889>Lion's Claw made the X fight a complete jokeNo shit its one of the most busted ashes of war lmao
>>483926865I didn't get his fucking letter and he disappeared now, is his questline completely broken or I just miss some shield and can continue with him?
>>483926273The fuck is this?
>>483929243then... why do all people seethe, cry and cope with SotE bosses in this general?
>>483927705The worst part is that the Abyssal Woods have some extremely good loot, namely the frenzy pot cookbook (which doesn't require limited materials) but it's so little in such a massive area that it's a pain in the ass to find,
>>483923178Radahn is fine. Gaius has some weird hit boxes, I agree, but it's basically the same as all of the rhino-type bosses.
literally the only problem with abyssal woods is that it doesnt have enough enemy encounters. they could've easily tucked away a couple of bosses out there, too.
>>483926273this type of gameplay is so fucking retarded both visually and in terms of the actual experience itself
>>483927110Just wear mid armour and the drake/holy +3. If you can survive 3 full hits and like 6 chip hits you'll be fine.
>>483927705That would have been cool, I would have also been happier with the woods being windier and denser. If it was half the size with double the pathways and double the winter lanterns that would have been better.
>>483924708>Honestly not the worst boss in the DLC, that remains dancing lionYou mean Bayle
>>483934543I actually didn't hate bayle. He suffers from the same bullshit camera that every other dragon fight does but he gets a pass because he's not that hard, is a huge spectacle, and igon is shouting his lungs out through the first part of it. Dancing lion's track is fucking killer but the fight is way shittier.
>>483922472what's the point you're trying to make?
what's the most fun melee build?
>>483936215I think he's trying to show that they used the "enemy right around a corner" gimmick a whole fucking bunch in the dlc. I do agree with his point a bit since it's more impactful when it's used a bit more sparingly.
