why were people having so much trouble with the torch giants>stomp>jump to avoid it>keep hitting leg until it dies
>>484136896>NPC ganksquad fight is more fun than the final boss
WHY ARE HOSTS SO RETARDEDWHY IS THE HEALTH BLOAT SO MUCH I'M GOING INSAAAAANE
>>484136896Now that the dust has settled, it's time. Time to pick your Top 5 Waifus.>VOTE NOW ON YOUR PHONEShttps://strawpoll.com/Dwyo3q5KkyAhttps://strawpoll.com/Dwyo3q5KkyAhttps://strawpoll.com/Dwyo3q5KkyAhttps://strawpoll.com/Dwyo3q5KkyAhttps://strawpoll.com/Dwyo3q5KkyA
If he’s supposed to be more powerful why is his fight so shit?
>>484137083>VOTE NOW ON YOUR PHONESi dont own a phone
>>484136637ftr i killed 4 of that dudes phantoms and then left without killing himhes likely summoning in more phantoms for the meatgrinder as we speak
>>484137009>troubleI don't think that's the word There are lots of complaints about the giants and not a one is about difficulty. They're all about boring monotonous tedium for a terribly designed enemy.
So is leda hotter than sellen?
repostan in the new bread>>484135052Update: It does work, mostly. Radahn was trying to kill me a lot more and without provocation on my part. I'd say this is very useful when trying to help retards.>>484134529I saw some anon claim that the Frenzied Flame and Three Fingers were actually the last message sent by the Greater Will to the Lands Between, implying the GW wants to wipe the slate clean and start over. Is there any basis for that claim? I don't recall anything like that.
What is the single highest damage weapon a lvl 150 build can use
>>484137074Also WHY DOES NOONE LEVEL VIGOR STILL AAAAAAA
When did he get the chance to do it
>>484134767>>484134875I mean, you kinda feel for her a bit.But then you remember that she didn't start this crusade till presumably after/during the Liurnian Wars (since there's Carians in Messmer's army) and she kept doing the Jar shit even after she became a God.Marika clearly did miss her people, but she also clearly used the hornsent as long as possible before going scorched earth on them.Maybe cause she was being led along by the Fingers during that time, but it still kinda sucks.
>>484137160They really cucked us on his fight, even if it was gonna just be a finger gauntlet shoulda made it harder and had us further back to fight against more.
>>484137009Two of them are located in areas where when they fall over their head can be positioned weirdly and you can't actually get the fucking crit. It becomes extremely boring when that happens.And then another two are armored in the legs and you need to actually find a high point to chuck pots at them.
>Manus Metyr>hand motherB R A V OANOTHER GAME AWARD TO MICHAELZAKI
>>484137193He mentions both of you no matter the state Malenia my cope is that he knows she's still alive whether it be pre boss fight or within the flower
>>484137083>choose 5I only like 3 in the whole game
What's the best way to nuke groups quickly while sneaking? In an invasion if I get the jump on a group, I want to be able to do an obscene amount of damage, preferably to all of them, also preferably if it was guaranteed not some meme bullshit. Also preferably if it isn't a 1 trick pony build.What build/sorcery/incant would allow me to do this sort of thing?Posting in new thread
>>484137160This is only him saying that the Greater Will is a more important celestial body so the moon is irrelevant in the grand scheme.
Miquella is Link the Twink, Radahn is just gay Ganondorf.
>>484137009Most people can't seem to figure out what to do when both legs catch fire and it jumps/explodes.
>>484137284Anon at level 60 Vigor you're still dying in one hit to a lot of bosses combos even at 60% absorption.And I know this because I'm usually at 70+ absorption for a bosses main element and will just roll over dead to a combo if I eat all the hits.
>>484137083I never got the Ranni appeal.>t. Millicentking
>>484137160Miyazaki is TERRIFIED of creating good wizard bosses. I don’t know why, either. For all of his love for occult concepts and esoteric themes, he does not like casters.
How is Malikath not considered one of the hardest bosses in the game? Hyper aggressive, extremely difficult to hit since he spends half the time in the air, can kill you in one combo at 60 vigor, chain combos, extremely small openings, ranged attacks
Threadly reminder that Messmer did nothing wrong. His only error was not going further in wiping out the hornkike menace forever.
Miqqy breaking down crying after you beat him. What would you say to him in the last moments of his life?
ranni inspired to learn to draw so i can make headcanon comics of elden ring and my tarnished mating pressing her
>>484137229DPS or AR your answer depends also on who you are hittingif we don't count perfume bottles being bugged, probably some bleed bullshit for DPS (bloodfiend arm), giant crusher for the latter 2
>>484137504probably because meleechuds shit their pants and cry whenever they have to fight a mage
>>484137517He is (in the base game at least)?I hate his fight because his health is so low that I never really feel like I learned him, just got lucky where he didn't do his autism moves allowing me to four shot him
Can I get some help? I've done some Str/Faith with Siluria's tree, Lightning perfume, and Pure Int runs. However, my Faith run used Siluria as a casting stick.I want to do another Strength run. Maybe Strength/Arc.Is it better to go Colossal + Shield so I have something for Radahn or double Colossal GET STUNNED GET STUNNED GET STUNNED
>>484137527He didn't breed with Rellana is what he did wrong.
How the frick do I get over there?
>>484137473>get on torrent>double jump
>>484137517low hp pool, easy to poise breakone riposte and it's over
>>484137517I thought the general difficulty consensus for base game bosses was1.Malenia2.Maliketh3.MohgObviously they're all childs play compared to the DLC, but those are the ones I saw most people whining about the difficulty of when ER was new
>>484137457Anon Rellana and her sister discovered the twin moons as children, implying he (Ymir) didn’t find the spells of his pupils all that impressive, further implying he’s just the better wizard.And yet his fight is just dog shit. I hate it when they relegate lore powerful people to npc type encounters, but this one truly takes the cake for me.
>>484137517He's made of paper and folds like it.
>>484137502She's a coherent NPC with a decently long quest that isn't (completely) insane, doesn't randomly die for tragedy points, talks to you like a mostly human being, has a special ending and gives you the iconic moon sword. All of that in a FROM software game. She's an anomaly. The other waifus don't stand a chance against such a portfolio.
>>484137083St. Trina's voice was kind of hot
Why does Miquella need to brainwash Mohg to access the Realm of Shadow? If Mogh was actually not that bad of a guy, why does his induction ceremony involve murdering maidens and killing other Tarnished?
>>484137517Most people I know, myself included, point to him as pretty emblematic of the worst parts of ER boss design for all those reasons. Most people do consider him very hard, probably the hardest of the bosses you have to actually beat for the story.
Elden Ring story so far:There's a land where everyone is killed and put into pots. One girl does not want to be stuffed to pot and lets her son kill everyone who stuff people into pots. Meanwhile her children kill each other and their people. Tarnished enters and kills everyone left.
>>484137347what helm is that
why do I get constant 59->57 noticable fps drops but when I use elden ring fps unlocker I get 100+ fps but the game fells not as smooth? am i retarded or it actually works like that?
>>484137435Giantsflame Take Thee + Flame Grant Me Strength + fire physick + fire scorpion + flock's' canvas talisman
>>484137502She's THE designated waifu of the game tailor-made for the average normalfag to fall for.
I can't decide, int or faith build? Which has the more fun spells
How are you supposed to dodge the drake's fire attacks? They seem taller than every other dragon's attacks and like jumping over it even with torrent never worksSame for like Bayle, though yo a lesser extent since you can run to the side easier with him
bayle is so fucking shit to coop, way too tanky
>>484137576Meant AR specificallyWill try the giant crusher
Elden Ring show might actually be kino if done right. Shame we won't actually see it until 2028 at the earliest.
>>484137470I knew this pairing would appeal to these kinds of trannies
>>484137328>But then you remember that she didn't start this crusade till presumably after/during the Liurnian Wars (since there's Carians in Messmer's army)Timeline's wonky and I don't know if that's true. Carians existed before they joined to Leyndell after all.>and she kept doing the Jar shit even after she became a God.Did she? I don't get that sense. Sure there's jars all over but, could just be remaining ones. Of note, jarburg is close to where Belurat would have been when the Land of Shadow wasn't hidden. And then, there's a difference between sticking the dead remains of people in jars, and doing whatever ritualistic shit the Hornsent did to stick the Shamans into the pots while somehow keeping them alive and capable of melding with the flesh within.
>>484137504Gwyndolin was one of the best bosses this series has ever had and I don't give a fuck if it was a simple gimmick.
>>484137739I mean that doesn't mean Ymir managed to reach the power of a Mother of Fingers by any stretch. He TRIED to be as great as the things he saw, but we're told his microcosm won't reveal shit and he clearly has failed at ascension and transformation.But yeah, of course, the NPC fights are poorly done most of the time.
>>484137480That doesn't mean you should skimp on it. I keep seeing invaders with sub-1k HP who do LITERALLY nothing but spam L2, literal Kevin hosts who melt to a single shadowman. It's wild out there.
>>484137684Go through the Specimen storehouse via the church district entrance and not the other entrance and you should get there eventually if you explore
>>484137784Mohg is a bad person regardless of Miquella's brainwashing, but somehow people tend to skip over that Miquella wasn't brainwashing Mohg into worshipping the blood-rape alien devil thing. That was all Mohg on his own.
>>484137784>Why does Miquella need to brainwash Mohg to access the Realm of Shadow?Maybe it's because Mohg is a hornsent
>>484137953>I knew this pairing would appeal to these kinds of trannies
>>484137530"you didn't beat the game"
>>484137470There's nothing gay about fucking a little boy that looks like a little girl.
>>484137915Int has all the fun spells in the base gameFth got all the new fun spells in the DLC
This doesn't count as posting about him
>>484138082>>484138038So you admit you're just literal pedos.
>>484137517All of his attacks whiff and is in general very easy to dodge and punish.Unironically his phase 1 is harder.
>>484136896Finished at skibidi 8. Maybe my opinion will change on Bayle when I beat him without summoning Igon, but he took me like 4 tries and I didn't look back.
What is his fucking problem?
>>484137470And if gaming history is anything to go by for the last 30 or so years, Ganon really loves losing to that twink cock.>>484137818Diallos's
>>484137915Faith. 70% of INT is variations of blue pew pew lasers. Faith gets random weird spells and a bajilion different buffs. It's an FTH game, pure and simple.t. INTfag>>484138049meant for >>484137530
>>484137683>>484137527ThisHe really needed to get over his mommy issues and just fuck the hot Carian girl that wanted his snake.
I think his fight is actually the coolest in the DLC. It didn't even make me that mad.
>>484137229
>>484138005Listen, they may have been all about murdering people and inflicting wounds and live in a torturous bloody nightmare hellscape of pure suffering but we draw the line at accusations of child molestation okay
>>484137435if you want to oneshot you kind of need to make a meme build around it.
>>484137915FTH has more spells, but good luck getting them off compared to INT spells.
>>484137985Cool, that’s one of the few we get, and ever get.
>>484137530>Where is the loot?
>>484138121where do you think you are
>>484137915Int plays better and is generally stronger / more consistent but Faith looks cooler and has more fun spells that are cool and creative but also trades some of their usability for that cool factor (Things like long clunky cast times, not being able to move and cast etc) so pick your poison
>>484137517He's an absolute shit tier boss and even after the DLC he's THE pinnacle of "When the fuck is it my turn". They were way more interested in making people go "WOW COOL FLIPPING DOG HE'S SO EPIC" than actually making a good fight.That said, he has next to no HP and dies in a few hits so he just ends up flipping around a few times then dies. It's like From made all these stupid ridiculous animations of Maliketh flipping around the arena doing anime moves, then realized he was annoying as fuck to fight and just halved his HP pool.
Has the fire knight greatsword dethroned the blasphemous blade?
>>484138294The teleporting wizard in Dark Souls 3 was great too. Wizards aren't real shit unless they have cool gimmicks. Rennala was also good.
>>484137435Preferably kys.
>>484138121Anon, I'm taking the piss out of the comparison.
>>484138349>he's THE pinnacle of "When the fuck is it my turn"you never learned how to dodge his attacks huh
Imagine the fucking trauma of Marika when her twin boys came out looking like the monsters who slaughtered her village way back in the beginning of it all.
>>484137991> he clearly has failed at ascension and transformation.How do you know? His clothes boost finger sorceries and we arguably put him down at the very beginning of his ascent. We could have been preventing the birth of a real abomination for all we know.
>>484138121It's pride month. Stop pedoshaming.
>>484138225It's a fun fight, especially phase 2 which in my opinion is much easier than the first phase.
>Gaius’s charge hit box is completely fucked>Messmer’s snake hit boxes in p2 are completely fuckedCan they fix this shit already? I’m tired of getting hit through my shield for no fucking reason. Like as if it isn’t already hard enough to carry dumbo hosts with 3 scuba.
I'd rate it the 2nd best only behind Midra.Though his phase transition fucking S C R E A M S Godfrey and only enforces my belief of Radagon being a Shaman with Marika, them having fused at some point or another and the most important bit; Godfrey fathering Messmer by knocking up Radagon.
>>484138357It doesn't heal 25% of your hp bar on hit, so no.Although it's definitely top tier.
>>484138145>Radahn higher than Messmer and Baylebad bait
>>484138430how are you supposed to when the second you hit him he dies
Did anyone do the priestess heart build yet? What would a good weapon be (apart from light, I already know that)?
>>484138430Nta but it's hard to do so when he flips over my head and makes the camera spazzThen the hole bit where he hangs from the pillarsbefore corkscrewing twice with black flames and then throwing himself at you.He's the worst fucking boss in this game by far.
>>484138365The teleporting wizard duo are the only ones you got in DS3, and Rennala is the only one you got in ER. 99% of all foes aren’t pure casters, anon.
>>484137867Best build in the game
>>484138357No, Flame Spear/Skewer aren't as braindead as Blasphemous Blade spam and doesn't heal you.
>>484138484>>484138225
is milady good with quality if i have 80 str and 30 dex? i feel like i do 0 dmg
>>484137009>>484137695A shocking number of people seem to dismount to fight on foot when they encounter these guys, same with dragonsI just dont get it
>>484138225>>484138478Yeah. Best fight second only to Midra. Phase 2 was really satisfying when fighting the giant snakes.
the player version of the divine beast tornado incantation doesnt even knock enemies upward :(
Why has no one posted any pictures or talked about the jungle area?
>>484138475I don't think groomers who behave like straight rapists represent gay people.
>WORRY NOT, MY FAIR PRINCESS, OH MY FAIR MAIDEN HOSTCLITTY. IT IS I, MARVEL_ANIME_TRANSGENDER_RESPECTOR_69420 THAT SHALL DEFEND YOU FROM THIS EVIL, TRANSPHOBIC, XENOPHOBIC, FAR-RIGHT FASCIST INVADER CHUD>DO NOT SULLY YOUR HANDS MY MAIDEN FOR I SHALL BANISH THIS EVIL FUCKING NAZI TRUMP SUPPORTING CHUD GOD I FUCKING HATE HIM SO MUCH FROM OUR WORL-ACKCKCKCK
>>484138145Bait use to be believable
>>484138449She gave birth to a guy who has snakes coming out of holes in his body first, with a sister possibly being a crazy psycho that birthed snake people.Think she should have been used to the idea that her vagina is a genetics garbage dump by now.
Cannon of Haima or Giantsflame take thee?
>>484138684you can get out a bigger number of strong attacks on foot so you can stance break them faster, you can just get back on the horse to avoid anything you can't on foot
>>484138683Milady does bad damage period. It has significantly less AR than just a Katana, especially Hand of Malenia. Best bet is probably lightning infusion.
>>484137435Cannon of Haima can do work for surprise aoe attacks. Also hits through walls which is pretty sweetBasically the same build as >>484137867but just the magic versions of the buffs and equipment
>>484138723
>>484137074>health bloatYour frost/rot/bleed/blackflame/destined death, sir?
>>484138705Player abilities and npcs aren’t supposed to be the real deal, for the sake of game.
>>484138872One is sorcery One is an incantation You're either doing intfag or faithnigger
>>484138723>Why do people hate invaders and just use seamless. It's an integral part of the game! and pvp's fun!
>>484138684It's easier and I can do more consistent dmg at least for the fire giants. For dragons it depends, I'll fight until torrent dies and then I don't bother reviving him. The movement of torrent makes it harder for me to dodge breath attacks if I'm facing the wrong direction than just simply being on foot.
Did anyone else find Romina way easier than any other remembrance up to that point? Still thought she was cool, though.
if I kill Radahn, will I still be able to challenge the optional bosses like Gaius, Midra, etc?
Anyone know where there's a good (respawning) "target dummy" in the expansion? I think I found another broken skill with absurd damage.
>>484138430Yeah man that line of thinking would work if this was DBZ and I could fly up into the air and hit him while he's twirling around but sadly for you it's a souls game so I sit my cuck ass on the ground and just flop around like a fish dodging his sword beams.
>>484137915You can actually use INT spells in a fight.FTH spells are almost universally plagued with either long cast animations or significant ending lag.4/5ths of the entire dragon roster might as well not exist for half of the DLC fights.
Are the three runebears just a Mistwoods reference or is there something other than a cookbook around them?
>>484138950>faithniggerYou mean Faithchad?
>>484138961it is if you aren't a pussy yellow that tries to jam out of hitstun twice in a row
484138723schizo anon is still posting the same webm
>>484138723>making up an entire strawman because he hates summonsyeah he died like a bitch but you're a schizo
Does Midra have a change in his lines if you inherited the Frenzied Flame? Probably not because From doesn't care
>>484138723kino post, based redchad
>>484138978I really loved the Romina fight, despite how easy it was
>>484138980Doubt you'll get locked out of any of those fights.
>>484138950>take new staff>can do bothI don't gotta pick shit
>>484138961if you can't win 3v1 you're a fucking retard.>m..muh new playersthey are all niggers who search for ''BROKEN BUILDS'' on youtube
>>484137083>pick your waifu>5 picks
>>484138121Leave this place. Miyazaki is pro Minors Attracted Persons. He even included a Radahn the MAP. So fuck off and leave, Miyazaki doesn't want bigot like you here.
>>484137959Carian's existed before, but Rellana is specifically Renalla's YOUNGER sister. So this is definitely about Renalla's time as the head of the Carians.Also Gaius's remembrance outright says that he and Messmer were "like elder brothers to the lion" meaning Radahn. Gaius was a peer to Radahn in learning Gravity Magic under the same Alabaster Lord, so that's another sign that the crusade happened later on.Also the Furnace Giants are covered in heads and whatnot of the Fire Giants, so it definitely happened at least after the War with the Giants.As for the Jars, it's not just Jarburg. we find Jars all over, particularly in catacombs and burial sites. So presumably the jar process was just carried over into the GO burial stuff.
>>484137867>>484138891But which one?
>>484139130Thanks, just making sure before I burn down the tree.
Is there a comfy grace in the DLC? They all kind of suck
>>484139001Why in the dlc specifically? I test everything on the Troll in front of Godrick. Trolls have no weaknesses or resistances so they make the perfect test dummy.
>>484138498Radahn's cool, even if the lore is dumb. Placidusax (and basically every major FS dragon fight) mogs Bayle.
>>484138648Aldrich is also a caster in DS3. He's not so great though. There are some other "mostly or heavily casters" that I'd argue shit like Astel can be lumped into. I'm happier that such pure caster fights are somewhat sparse and almost always good for it. I'd rather have less but more interesting, unique mechanics for them that emphasize what mastering sorcery can do than just a dozen guys whose gimmick is to blast you at range and teleport away over and over.
The spear throw on Messmer's spear is very fun and useful.I don't really understand his fight but it was fun to go back and forth between his attacks with blind spot
>>484139057newfag doesn't know about basedposting
>>484138961Invaders exist to balance out co-op. While bosses are currently getting overscaled to shit, the rest of the PvE stands literally no chance to a 3 squad.
>>484137083>Please choose at least 5 option(s).????
>>484139059No because they were hellbent on making the DLC completely self-contained.
>>484139059I did Frenzied Flame ending before doing DLC assuming there would be interesting dialogue but no. No one gives a shit.
>There's an unironic Wubbadlubbadubdub reference in a new item descriptionFromsoft needs to fucking fire their localization company
>>484138910Aren't most of the new dlc bosses status immune or heavily resistant?Blackflame is lame because the only two projectile incantations are lame otherwise. If there were a blackflame version of giants flame nuke thee, I'd be using that
>>484139279Shaman Village, just bring napkins if you know the lore. You'll need to dry tears.
>>484139316> Aldrich is also a caster in DS3Nah he’s just a blob pretending to be one we already fought in the first game. That fight is cool but lazy.
>>484139059>jap dogs paying for an extra line of voice actingHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA no.
>>484139391are you gonna tell us what item it is or do we just take your word for it
>>484139327Messmer's Spear is most likely getting nerfed. Which is too bad because it's one of the most fun weapons in the DLC.
Who else is weak to lady knights.
>>484138723I kneel.
Elden Ring ith God of War 1 sex scenes when? How is GTA:SA allowed to have sex?
Might get the dlc. My save is level 180 and I'm still in NG. I have more or less every item, spell, weapon and armor in the game. Should I keep playing or should I just start over? I haven't played for 2 years.

Why are fight clubs nonexistent in this game when they were very much alive in Dks3? It's much more fun than arena...

I wanna use the Carian Sorcery Sword for my playthrough but it's bugged rn so I can't.
>>484139701woah bro you must be like, really good at the game and also get laid a lot hahaha
>>484139029>>484139181I never said the fact the yellow go wrecked was bad or good.But if you don't think the poster is acting like a tremendous cock sucking faggot with a post like that, dunno what to tell you. Personally, I don't want to deal with such an individual. Ever.
>>484137009It's just mind numbing to fight.
>ant's skull plate is the only shield with tier 3 hardness and deflects enemies using anything but the biggest weapons>doesn't work in pvplame lame lame lame LAME!!! i just want a fucking counter to shield poking god damn it!!!!
>>484139263Giantsflame take thee casts quicker and is more usable in direct combat. Cannon of haima (i think) has slightly longer range and probably hits abit harder. Maybe also has a bigger aoe radius? Not sure but it feels like it mightFire spells are generally better at short - medium range, INT spells often work at longer ranges and are better for pestering co-op cucks Idk nigga do you like red or blue? Choose your colour

>>484139785>roll>10% damage boost>bad
>>484139382I never even beat the game on my first character because I didn't want to burn Melina incase she was in the dlc.
>>484139819uuhit was so immersive and the hidden meaning is about being a buddhist monk alone on a mountain so it was clearly too deep for you
>>484139819I wonder if the Mausoleums are actually a late addition to the game. The gameplay trailer from 4 months ago had a clear bit of the player fighting the Dancer in the Cerulean Coast. But then she's just in a mausoleum when we get to the actual game.
Gods I want to fuck Leda in the ass so bad.
>>484139819Red Bear would've niggered out and punched a baby or something if they put more there.I'm more annoyed by the bit of castle wall to that spot's right that I can't find any entrance for.
>>484139701Only the last boss is difficult in the entire DLC
>>484137504>>484137607>>484137985Reminder that master Willem was supposed to be a boss before Miyazaki scrapped it. He was like 3/4 done too.
>>484139842From should have done that. Yandere religious women are fucking top tier.
>>484139819ermmmm zoomer you're supposed to TAKE IN the scenery and SOAK in the lore

>>484139240Yeah but Jarburg is THE jar place. I'll concede there.As for the Hornsent being allowed to stay on a leash, Marika clearly backstabbed them as soon as she ascended to divinity, going by both the trailer and the way the old grandma talks about her. Even if the final genocide wasn't right away no way they had good relations after that.
I really don't want to ever touch anything related to FS again, not even with a stick. Mark my words, they're the new Ubisoft. Miyazaki won't even be the one to develop the next game. It'll start getting gradually worse but the new audience will gorge it up all the same and in some 10 years everyone will see what's evident to the wiser already. The developer's gone to shit.
>>484139805Is the effect permanent or does it goes away after you die because just 3 are making every encounter trivial, I don't know if there are more only 3 spots marked on the map tho.
>>484139791>That’s how they’re supposed to fight. If they get up close they’re not fighting as well as they could be.That gets tedious by design. It's the same thing as why there aren't that many bosses who play keep away and pelt you with arrows.Also Rennala was great in all ways honestly. I disagree completely.
>>484140068What we see of the combat animations the survived the cut, looks downright stupid, with him floating around in his chair and falling on you.The snake boss being cut was a bigger loss.

>>484139431tears? I'll need them to catch my cum
>>484137504>creating good wizard bossesWhat would that be to you?Because you clearly don't like Gideon, which is a player style caster, nor rennala (phase 2), which is a very stereotypical action game wizard.Do you want more shit like crystal sage and Miriam? But those feel more like dungeon clears than bosses, so likely not.Consider also that he's a jap and their concept of wizard is basically pewpewing elements plus summoning pokemons. You can only expect so much out of him.>For all of his love for occult concepts Lmao he loves lovecraftian shit, true. But that's for horror, not unga bunga action games.
>>484140353Always forget that Melina looks like beef jerky under her cloths. Such a pretty face on a ICU patient.

>>484140325> What we see of the combat animations the survived the cut, looks downright stupidNah. It matches the insanity of the game. It’s not any sillier than the slime scholars. Invisible telekinetic assaults can also be terrifying, and the voice actor put a lot of effort into the occult gibberish Willem is muttering. > The snake boss being cut was a bigger loss.I’m sad about that as well.
I can't wait for vaati's Prepare to Cry on Marika
>>484140463Yuria was great, though
>>484140664But I'm bad at the game
>>484140501Fth has healing. Also the most damage potentialInt has the most versatility of function. You've got a spell to do everything.Arc has the most versatility of damage type. It has literally every damage type in the game.
>>484140501>Tell me what sets casters apart aside from their spellsBlue, gold, red.
the delayed attacks in these games are so peak, ik it sounds weird.I like the delayed attacks, it was so fucking boring sometimes playing dark souls 1-3 and then bloodborne and not even needing to learn a boss because u see attack and then spam b and winbasically good reaction time = winafter ds3 i went to ds1 and was a unstoppable monster who killed every single fucking boss in like 1-3 attempts including dlc, then I went to bloodborne and it was even fucking easier besides MAYBE amelia, the snake trio and orphan of kos ( obviously )elden ring reinforces actually learning the boss instead of just knowing the dodge roll timing, and people who complain are just literally mad they can't 1-2 try bosses and have to sit down and learn them.I have seen so many clips of people on this board fighting the last boss and it always 70% of the time goes like this>"this boss is so fucking unfair, fuck this dlc, fuck this game">check vidya>panic rolling>click off vidyahow is it this fucking complicated? just learn the fucking moveset, there is a reason that the higher the skill the more enjoyment for this game and the lower the skill the more hate and resentment.LOCK. THE. FUCK. IN.
>>484139747There's also statues of Marika all over the place, not even just where Messmer's army is.I don't think we have hard text to prove it, but it seems likely that it went:>Hornsent have a hard on for contacting divinity (hence the Tower, worshipping the crucible and stuffing Numen in jars to become saints)>Marika shows up with the guidance of the Two Fingers (who also want to get to contact the GW again)>Convinces the Hornsent to let them plant the Erdtree (or just that the Erdtree already growing is the best way to contact the gods)>Marika backstabs the top people at the Gate of Divinity and uses it to become a God>This is still what the Hornsent in general wanted though so they were cool with her at the time>Marika goes out and establishes the Golden Order and does her wars and whatnot>She finally starts doubting the Fingers and realizes she's been played>Sends Messmer to burn down the Land of Shadow and seals it so she doesn't have to look at them anymore>Starts her shit around shattering the ER and getting Godfrey/Tarnished to start a new age
>>484140567they are the sexiest, it's that simple
>>484139983That's Leda's chest armor, not Oathkeeper.
With my FAITH build, I have been using the Erdtree Sacred Seal all time, but after just beating Messmer, im thinking into trying to go for a Fire focused build using the Messmer spear.Should I use the Fire Priest Sacred Seal, or the Fire Giant one? Or stick to the Erdtree one due to the huge FAITH scaling even if unfocused to any kind of incantations?
>>484140740make sure you disable ad block sister ;^)
>>484140668Didn't expect weak foein short seek skill
>>484137498the double wave of madness bullshit that hits you regardless of which direction you dodge to.
>>484140048Is it ACTUALLY a difficult and epic fight or it's like that r*ddit meme where they say Radahn was harder pre-patch?
>>484140496So you’re saying you just don’t want to be annoyed? Do you know what game you are playing, buddy? All of these games are constant repeat encounters, and you draw the line at something different being done a few too many times.Blind to irony.
>>484140836Cast with erdtree, have the other one in your off hand. Its damage bonus will apply even if it's not the one being used.

Carian Sovereignty is so fucking cool, brosI can't stop using itI need MORE stuff to kill
Being able to do this fight on boarback was one of the best changes they made to the game. The sekiro parry crystal tear also made malenia and some other bosses fun.
>>484140782it's just rote memorization, when you see it fly up it's doing the arc and you ride in the opposite direction of it, when you see it do the wave firebreath ride to your left, when you see it do the straight firebreath ride right or left but not back because that one is very longreally simple
>>484140259>Miyazaki won't even be the one to develop the next gameI hope so
>>484140893How can people no-hit him (without rolling even) if he has unavoidable moves
>>484141001It would be comfier without the whimpering cuck.
>>484140810Marika's capable of being very calculating but she's also clearly emotional and hotheaded (shattered the ring when Godwyn died)I don't see tolerating the Hornsent at all.
>>484141075it is cooli just find it hard to use against bosses in the DLC with their spastic movesets
can easily parry radahb till phase 2 nowbut then its complete clusterfuck and i cant find any opening
>>484140905It's just Malenia all over again. People were shitting themselves over Rellana on day 1 of release, and now, for some odd reason, they all disappeared.
>>484139853Game is literal caveman tier, is not that hard anon.
>>484141000both int and fth are situationally better for raw damage potential depending on the situation, usually ADLS or comet azur, when you can use them. for raw ranged dps comet spam wins.
>>484140909I understand that if a game has a dozen bosses which all run away from you to blast you with magic people are going to be annoyed because it's pure tedium. I loved Gwyndolin's fight, which is exactly this. I would not love 10 Gwyndolin fights. I don't want 10 Miriams. It's fun to encounter a couple of times. You can see it with the normal casters who go disappear. They aren't hard, I doubt anyone finds them all that fun, but they are a bother. Used, fortunately, fairly sparingly.
>>484140806I'd agree, but Rellana was locked onto Leda and instantly switched with a heavy hitting charge, that in a normal game, would be a dedicated attack to one area.
>>484141152He fuck offs after you kill the faggotNow you can have the loli for yourself
>>484141080They destroyed my boy.Elden Beast was the kinoest fight in the entire game but now is relegated to a drake-tier fight.
Do NOT say it.
>>484141075What are the differences between it and Grandeur?
>>484141258What do you mean? Phase 2 still uses the same sword combos. Just parry them and try to dodge the other shit.
>>484139626Bro forgot he has an attack button
Still waiting on an answer as to how Miquella became a god without attaining the Elden Ring. Literally what even is the Divine Gate? Marika is a god because she's the vessel of the Elden Ring, so what makes Miquella a god? Is the Divine Gate just a backdoor access to the Elden Ring/Erdtree?
>>484140893you can roll through that, it's just very precise
>>484139626I would have lost my mind with all that rolling.
>>484141324>Fighting magic with magicYou fucking caveman.
almost all of fromsoft's DLC has been impacted by the next soulsbornekiroring game they're working on, both design-wise and via little winks and easter eggs.from playing the DLC, certain areas and bosses, and how generally aggressive the enemies are, my guess is that the next sousbornekiroring game is going to be bloodborne 2ignoring the whole metyr thing, midra's entire area is thematically evocative of bloodborne, and his theme without context could easily be from the bloodborne OST. I spent a few days wondering why the fuck the song sounded so familiar until it hit me. the front of the song is very much elden ring, but the incidental music, like the background instrument choices, created atmosphere, pacing, etc. takes a ton of inspiration from bloodborne to the point it almost sounds like a fusion of the two games. compare between midra and a few bloodborne themes and you can hear the familiarity:midra: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aeQVSgK7EI [Embed]cleric beast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9vS0Wd27rsliving failures: https://youtu.be/ALbVEmzY5S4?list=PLelOCNm842Y_3Xv22_jO92_8F4YQDXFIi&t=237 [Embed]ludwig: https://youtu.be/ALbVEmzY5S4 [Embed]lady maria: https://youtu.be/8mByDcrNSV0?t=139 [Embed]I hope I'm right because bloodborne is great and it vastly increases the chances for bloodborne on PC.
>>484140989I agree. It really feels like they were determined to make a big and very pretty open world for the DLC without actually checking if they had enough cool stuff to distribute throughout it. I enjoyed the based game's open world, but this really did not need to be one, especially since I think the level design of the dungeons suffered for it.
>>484141324I definitely have noticed bosses input read attacks like this in multiplayer with DLC stuff. I didn't notice it in the base game but it's been a while. Radahn, Rellana and Messmer would all instantly change to target me just like that before my attack even landed on them. Crazy shit.
>>484140287> Also Rennala was great in all ways honestly. I disagree completely.She was great visually but she is catered only to caster playstyles. Most builds do in fact destroy her. Her high magic resist is as though she were only made for the caster type player.You need to understand that magic takes back seat in these games. >>484140631> Do you want more shit like crystal sage and Miriam?Honestly yes, since that is precisely how a wizard is supposed to fight. Why would a cloth wearing, calculating individual get in close quarters with someone who has a big ass sword and dense ass armor?
>>484141324you can summon leta for this fight wtf?? i didnt even know she had a questline i just thought she was a evil bitch.yeah the game acts really weird with summons, if u wanna prevent this id just recommend running dedicars woe or some shit so the boss is always agro'd on you or something that decreases agro.
>>484141370Grandeur's first hit does slightly more damage to HP and posture IIRC, but Sovereignty has a meaty follow up that's a wide AoE.
>>484141353You can still fight him the shitty way if you enjoy wasting your time.
>>484141162>emotional and hotheaded (shattered the ring when Godwyn died)I mean, there is the theory that she didn't do that just out of emotion but actually planned it. That she helped Ranni by getting her a bit of Destined Death from Maliketh. She already had intended for the Tarnished to go off, die and come back stronger to take the ER once more, and she had Melina set up to burn the Erdtree.I could see it being that she initially was blinded by godhood and divinity and just went with what the Fingers said. She only realized they're retarded once her men started to falter and she started looking into the roots of the Golden Order. Then she realized this shit had to end and the whole Land of Shadow thing was just a last selfish act on her part.
>>484141162It seems that is what she did, probably about the time Godfrey got kicked out and Crucible shit got put down hard. It does seem to line up with when the Erdtree started to die, so the Hornsent massacre might have been more than just petty revenge and dumping all the criminals and snake freaks away.
>>484140836Godskin is the best for a pure fire build.Erdtree is only better if you're going to use every school and have gone over 70fth.
>>484139626so can you do something against this? i'm new to pvp
To avoid breaking anything by going to Altus early I just have to not rest at any Graces correct?
>>484141392he spams completely different attacks at me...everything flashes i see 100 radahnshe barely uses the attacks from phase 1
>>484141362Mom Marika way too cute with them slightly tired soft eyes.
>>484141271The only thing that made Malenia stand out was the silly spin to win attack, she was a wet doodle otherwise. I hope the final boss ain't the fucking whale again.
>>484141324I was rolling at the wrong time just like you when i first started fighting her. You gotta delay your roll a bit.
>>484140989Unlike with the base game most of the side content in the dlc is actually fun to do on subsequent playthroughs. Quality over quantity.
>>484141568The guy recording the webm could have attacked in-between his rolls and caught him at any time.
>>484141000I was told it was FTH.>>484141271The fact people no longer bitch about Malenia doesn't mean she stopped being bullshit.She's still an overall poorly designed boss due to the overtuned healing on hit and the waterfoul dance. The issue is that the majority of faggots that play these games don't actually look critically at bosses or the overall game design. They say "boss killing me, game bad" while refusing to adapt their build or try different strategies.Fire giant, Maliketh, Elden Beast (though that's not the case anymore thanks to Torrent I think) and Malenia haven't stopped being asinine because the vast majority of shitters learned to shieldpoke or jumping heavy them to death.As for the DLC bosses, most are meh. Radahn's the only trully shitty one.
>>484141568use spears to rollcatch
>>484141324this is why i didn't summon even a spirit ash for this boss, lol
why did they add such obnoxious music to every areatotally ruins the atmosphere when everywhere I go I have to hear chanting
>>484139626>nooo you shouldn't use dual spears in pvp, they're too OP>meanwhile the average hostThey deserve the pokes.
Can I fuck Marika yet???
if marika being the greater will's avatar makes her a goddessand malenia being the the outer god of rot's avatar makes her a goddessthen why is the tarnished not the god of frenzy and mog not the god of blood?the game seemed to establish that there is a god and their consort which is lord, but mohg is not the consort he should be the god.
>>484141703really? when i was trying to do that the second roll would've just avoided itmilady btw
>>484141362marika sex
>>484141321> I understand that if a game has a dozen bosses which all run away from you to blast you with magic people are going to be annoyed because it's pure tediumThese games are 90% pure tedium. > I don't want 10 Miriams.And I don’t want 100 magic knights that begin with “forgive me…” and have HP bars with no end in sight.
>>484141630>he spams completely different attacks at me...everything flashes i see 100 radahnsDodge/run away for those until he goes back to doing phase 1 attacks (which he inevitably does)The phase 1 attacks have miquella follow ups but they're still the exact same to parry
What seal would be ideal for a dex build with just enough fth for buffs/utility?
>>484141505it literally has to be bloodborne 2, i cannot see them making sekiro 2 cuz that game is pretty much a 1 and done story. Its either bloodborne 2 or a sekiro like game
>>484140551I have complete confidence in Sellen and Leda to kick your scrawny ass.
>>484141552After the shaman village I can't genuinely believe she'd have a child killed.If she was capable of that, Morgott and Mohg would have not gotten away with just the sewer treatment.
>>484141827get fucked bullgoatnigger
>>484141827that hitbox is so fucking jacked you can't even raptor of the mists through it
>>484140501Int is straightforward. It has the highest raw damage and highest fp efficiency and deals it mostly in straightforward easy to use spells. It's the most effective casting school for dealing damage at range.Fth is the opposite. Its spells are mostly inefficient and expensive and aren't typically straightforward, instead javing additional effects that increase their value or things like bug AoEs, hyper armour, or weird hit boxes that are more difficult to avoid. Their sources of straightforward ranged damage are limited by cost or long animation commitment and most of their strongest spells are close range. They tend to have a lot of utilities to offset their raw damage and have access to a very diverse spread of damage types.Arcane is the status effect stat but it can dip into either int or fth to access their respective tools thanks to having arc-scaling staves. The arc-centric spells are mostly just dragon stuff and some blood spells for inflicting status at range, but arc is mostly a melee weapon stat.
I beat the dlc at 150 and am now just spamming co ops and shitShould I stay at 150? Cause I swear everyone is like 200+ in this dlc and I feel like I should level too
>>484141838>milady btwLight Greatswords have a bad moveset unfortunately, especially for roll-catch.
>>484141630It always seems bad at first, but then you find a way. He might do more sword strikes if you stick close to him.
>>484141754Yeah I don't like the current trend of stage music. It began with Sekiro. I don't see Fromsoft changing anytime soon.
>>484141526She doesn't have to be a difficult fight to be good. She's fine.
>>484141715Sorry, not gonna read all that. She's a great fight though.
>>484141321> It's fun to encounter a couple of timesI bet you fucking hate this game then, eh? Because you’re fighting the same thing like ten fucking times, in ten different ways. I can use your argument for royal revenants, tree spirits, erdtree guardians, burial watchdogs, and more.
>>484141526>Why would a cloth wearing, calculating individual get in close quarters with someone who has a big ass sword and dense ass armor?Because it's a boss fight in an action game.I mean I get your point and don't disagree conceptually, but you're not going to get that shit for fog wall bosses.
>>484141991this image is funny because false king has the same "wow i really wish this fight was fucking over" feeling to radahn
Why are hostcels always so cocky until they have to fight alone? Big tough guys always need backup?
>>484141970I mean do what you want, I leveled to 230 to use the new weapons and I still get summoned instantly
>>484141884Dragon communism (if you somehow have 10 arc) or erdtree (for 30 fth) because they weight nothing
>>484141970Your level doesn't really matter compared to the scadutree fragments collected, and that's determined by the host you join.
>>484136262 #>You don't dodge until the moment the attack is coming towards you.theoretically. due to ER's built in dodge delay and the too high speed of most attacks, this will get you hit 100% of the time. it's all unintutive. you have to dodge everything earlier than your normal human sense of timing tells you, and than if those bosses were in an earlier Dark Souls game. you can not react dodge in ER.
Ok bros, finally beat the DLC. Thing is, I played it the exact same I did the base game, an unga bunga STR build 2Hing a big weapon. This playstyle kind of backfired for bosses like radahn, but eh, it is what is. Thing is, I know I haven't really touched a large amount of playstyles, especially anything magic/faith related. What should I try next, for a completely different way of playing the game?
>>484140770Yeah, they were pretty cute villainesses.
>>484142068False King is fucking great what
>>484141832Mohg wanted to be Miquella's consort. Or at least that's what he thought. Though Miquella probably was mindfucking him at the time.The God is the one that can take the Elden Ring into themselves, a divine being capable of ruling. A Lord is the consort of a God.Outer Gods like the GW, God of Rot, Formless Mother, etc. are cosmic beings beyond the realm of reality that try to sneak into a Lord or God to manifest their will on the planet.
>>484141981i watched a pvp video and the guy was constantly praising the sword, guess it was just one of those fake positivity retarded shit

man why is fth shafted so badly in this gameintfags have>extra questline>cute waifu as masters>cool as fuck looking spells>fth has>chuds as masters>the coolest incantations require int as well>the ending that makes the most sense if you go fth instead of int/fth is being a cuck to marika>no extra questline
>>484141970i finished the dlc today at level 210, i feel like everyone would be around 200 unless they don't explore or go out of their way to stay underleveled
>>484141405The Divine Gate is the crucible, which is basically a massive font of energy.The energies of death naturally gather in the Lands Between and more specifically, they flow towards its center (read the Supression Pillar epithet)The Hornsent used the jar stuffing rituals to basically coalescent or guide or what have you those energies into forming a single font of energy, that's likely spiral like in form, and direct it through Enir Elim all the way up to the gate of divinity at the top. It's a massive accumulation of energy that allows beings to ascend to godhood.

Does the parry hardtear cause the thing yoy garden against to gain any posture damage?>>484141832I assume you basically are in the Frenzy ending, atleast in power, though like the Frenzied Flame's whole shtick kinda doesn't work with the whole God hierarchy thing, it literally is melting rhe world into one giant hodgepodge so there's no distinguishing between anything, there wouldn't be any distinction between mortal and God.Might I assume is like because the Formless Mother hasn't got enough hold on reality in order to coalese/like enforce a God into existence yet to impose its system ob reality
>>484141846If we flipped all the roles of melee enemies to caster enemies you and virtually everyone else would have so much less fun. I'm sorry you can't understand why it's different to go after someone pelting you with shit and playing keep away but I'm sure you'll get it eventually.

>>484142175his moves randomly having or not having hyper armor is annoying, running across the arena over and over is annoying, the long ass runback is annoying
>>484142249Serious competitive game
>>484142334>Does the parry hardtear cause the thing yoy garden against to gain any posture damage?No. It only reduces the stamina yoy lose and vastly increases damage reduction. The game has actual parries for a reason.
>>484141362>>484141667I genuinely don't get the appeal of WANTING her to be a tired wrinkly hag. It's clearly not genuine good-faith lore autism since she doesn't look like that ingame anywhere so is it just some weird whiteknighting to say you prefer that compared to the alternatives on an anonymous message board? Because if you REALLY would rather the skinny wrinkled woman instead of the one that checks all the boxes normal people use to determine fertility then you're either low T or something worse
>>484141552>>484141945You’re ignoring peak grrm nuance writing lolRanni worked with the black knives but they betrayed her and did their own thing, and it’s why there’s one imprisoned in the moonlit altar, and why they’re after herThe black knives did their own thing and it is likely Godwyn wasn’t originally part of the plan (although he may have been a willing participant either way) in some way
>>484142051And I can say that none of those are playing keep away to waste my fucking time anon. How about Royal Revenants... but they run away from you and cast fuckloads of magic! Oh man, we can just make more and more of the pests too. Everyone loves fighting them. They're your favourite enemy right? We'll adjust their AI so they always run away and cast pest threads at you so you can like them more.
>>484142441>>still take damagethis is unironically a skill issue. jumping the stomp flames is extremely forgiving timing wise.
>>484142167incantations only
>>484142194They're only good if you manage to catch your opponent in a vortex, but that requires them to be hit by your two r2s and then be unaware of the follow ups. This is unfortunately very difficult to pull off against anyone playing passively, having poise or hyperarmor. The weapon would be a lot better if it could stagger other players but even passive poise will beat it, and without hyperarmor, expect to get destroyed by poke r1s from thrusting swords poiseblobs.
>>484142513higher res pls
So i beat this mofo yesterday, i can somewhat understand why so many people were mad at him kek, just an ADHD pork who hits like a truckHad to figure out a cheesy build with my magma blades, golden vow+fire give me strength+alexander' shard+fire scorpion talisman+that magma boost talisman i found some days ago, spam magma shower on his ass and in like 5-6 tries you get some amazing roasted pork. Bon appetit.

>>484142687dogs and rats have insane poise damage in every souls game for some reason
>>484142687Dog attack poise damage is always whatever your current poise is, +1
>>484141945Look, just cause Marika has one nice moment doesn't mean she's a saint.She still willingly formed the GO, killed all the Giants, killed the Gloam Eyed Queen, ripped Destined Death out of the ER, warred with the Carians, left Messmer to rot in the Land of Shadow, etc.I think there's also a pretty stark difference between Marika in her rise to power, her initial activity as a God, and her actions after starting to question the GW stuff. I think that, like Miquella, she lost herself when she became a god at first, and only long after did she finally realize she was "caged by divinity" like St. Trina warns Miquella will be. That's when she did all the crazy shit to set up for the current age to end.
>>484142513>that pic of her with Messmer>wrinkly hag
>>484142513I just said she looks like a cute, kind mom. I didn't mean imply coomer intent. Get your mind out of the gutter.

>>484142513This women makes me go absolutely feral.
>>484142286So is Marika a god because she possesses the Elden Ring or is she a god because she passed through a gate? And how can that gate be the crucible when the crucible became the Erdtree a long time ago?
>>484142593damn, that was my favorite dlc weapontime to look for something new i guess
>>484142481Is that charge attack tear for the L2?It only affects regular R2s, I recommend the consecutive attack tear instead.
>>484142678I WANT THAT FUCKING ARMOR BROS!
>>484142513Because I'm not sexualizing her because I'm not a brain dead cooler moid like you uou retard, she's just a cool character and her being slightly tired fits into her character of her eventually breaking the Elden Ring
>>484142194The problem is that it has the poise damage of a straightsword with a slower moveset, and most if the attacks swing too high to catch someone rolling. These make it super vulnerable to being bullied by meta shit even excluding all of the actually broken stuff right now
>>484142770Marika also made Melina, a child born to be sacrificed. Melina even accepted her fate in the end.
>>484142831uh, based
>>484142678Just fight him near the wall you stupid niggers it bricks half his moveset.
>>484140259Of course, you can tell with the blatant DEI narrative in the game. Blackrock is trying to dominate nippon now by unleashing their mutilated monstrosities upon otaku culture and japanese vidya, globohomo will no longer permit one of the few countries that has never been properly colonized to escape their world domination. They're getting migrants, tranny narratives and economic failure all at once and that's not to mention their already existing problems. No wonder they keep making media where they kill god, maybe that's why the final boss is a tranny and the DLC's are a bunch of faggots kek.
Do Melina or any of the Roundtable Hold people have anything to say about the DLC if they're still alive or is it all completely divorced from base game?
>>484141827This DLC was made for perfect blocking and/or light rolling.
>>484142770>Look, just cause Marika has one nice moment doesn't mean she's a saint.I know she's not a saint. Fire giants probably did nothing wrong (probably) beyond worshiping a fire deity that's anatema to the ErdtreeBut as far as her family's concerned, it's been cast in a new light> left Messmer to rot in the Land of Shadow, etc.She left him there for his own protection.

I'm entering what I assume to be the final area and I'm still level 150. Increasingly feeling like I should have just leveled freely, though, if only so I could have tried all the shit I pick up.
>>484141505pretty sure Sony gaming is in bad shape, so timing makes sense. they'd probably suck Miyazaki's dick for it since the post Elden Ring hype would make it an even bigger console seller and Bloodborne for PC would help expose more people to it plus rake in cash
>>484142949the latter>>484142961or a shield, that charge is blockable and even if you get guardbroken you will recover in time
>>484142860It's a fun weapon regardless, and I would put good money that its AR and poise damage might get buffed soon in a future patch (currently they have less AR than Katanas lmao).
>>484142949There is 'NO' interaction between the DLC and the base game. At all. Null. Zero. Nada. Nanimonai.
>>484142789Compared to picrel she absolutely does look like a wrinkly hag>>484142803>>484142897Oh so it is virtue-signalling on an anonymous image board, thank you for clearing that up
Is it worth making an int build just for this spell?does fth have something similar?
I wish there was a second DLC where you could play as Fire Knight or Black Knight of Messmer and participate in the hornocaust. The screams of hornkikes as they burn in sorcerous fire, is sweet music to my ears.
>>484142975>his own protectionBro, love isn't shutting your problem child away in the basement for 50 years and saying you don't have a child.
>>484142949>Melina
>>484143093No she doesn't. Your pic is off model pornographic content. Which is fine. Not as if I don't like itBut call things what they are.
>>484143039I just stayed 150 because anytime I have leveled a character to 200 I just feel way too strong being able to do so much at once with my stat distribution.
>>4841431181/3 of the faith roster are highly telegraphed flashy big badaboom spells that take ages to cast.
>>484143093It's not virtue signaling it's just not thinking like thatWhen I saw the picture, I just thought "Aww she's putting a helmet on him"
>>484143093There's time for cooming and there's time for cute. I don't have to be horny all the time.
>>484143118No, only worth it if you go full wizard so you can punish groups that close you down.Dragon claw is the fth equivalent I guess.
>>484143093you could just try to stop jerking off to everything you see
>>484142975>She left him there for his own protection.Anon. his Remembrance literally said she feared the snake in him. And his armor states how he took up HER crusade to have all hate directed at him instead of her.Messmer was used up till the very end. That's why it's so tragic when he dies and his last words are "Mother... Marika..." He's finally realizing right at the end that she abandoned him, seeing her as Marika rather than his false idea of a loving mother.
>>484142770>left Messmer to rot in the Land of ShadowMessmer knows about the tarnished but gives no indication of knowing about the shattering. They think they've been abandoned but even people in the Lands Between were unaware that Marika had sealed the Erdtree and was stuck
The No-Renown Tarnished and Ashen One have more similarities than I first thought.

>>484142513Low T males who spend too much time being brainwashed on social media and genuinely have been manipulated into feeling guilty about liking attractive women Then whenever you say anything, they just respond with the same "Huh durr youre a Coombrain" response. Noticing a pattern? Its the same thing every timeRemember anon, its tourist season at the moment with the release of the DLC. Give it a week or two and they will all go back to their tranny circles
>>484143159>Bro, love isn't shutting your problem child away in the basement for 50 years and saying you don't have a child.I don't consider the fact the characters of the DLC were never mentioned to be a factor. At this point it's clearly just a constraint of the story being told after the fact (besides a few things concerning Miquella)It's not as if Rennala ever mentioned a sister as well for example.And as for shutting him away, yes it wasn't necessarily a good thing. But remember that Messmer's armies has the most blessings out of any other army under the Erdtree, and the black knights it goes as far as being the only other enemy to use the same ability as Marika's hammer. Messmer was clearly favored and didn't stop being favored. Also, the graces never point you to Messmer even though that's how you progress in the DLC. But they DO point you from Messmer to the church of the bud and thus Miquella. The grace's guidance is now confirmed to be 100% Marika, that proves she wanted to save Messmer.
>>484143221The fanart is off-model too since Marika never looks like anything other than a broken statue corpse ingame. There's no qualitative difference between that fanart and this picrel other than the fact that this is objectively more attractive
>>484143520They don't even explain what the tree is, let alone details
>>484143520Because spirals are fucking DOPE
>>484143357Nah, she never came back after sealing the land and she knew she wouldn't. The Golden Braid striaght up explains she never intended to come back after:>A braid of golden hair, cut loose. Queen Marika's offering to the Grandmother. Boosts holy damage negation by the utmost. What was her prayer? Her wish, her confession? There is no one left to answer, and Marika never returned home again.

>>484143951It's night time
I dont get it, what was so hard about this boss?
>>484143358I don't know what he's going on about considering that humans don't even reproduce in Dark Souls like we do in real life. To begin with, their marriage rituals involve stabbing each other in the face with a stone sword, and it only gets weirder from there (like dudes chopping off their arm or plucking out their eyeball and it becoming a child).People in ER do fuck and think about sex though.

>>484141538Is sovereignty still a knockdown on the first hit even when uncharged?
>>484143997probably plays better if you live in japan
So becoming a god like sitting on the Golden Throne of 40k, that being said why's Marika immobile when we encounter her and how was she able to shatter the Elden Ring if she was already holding everything?
>>484144025Nothing. You played the game correctly and didn't artificially make it more difficult for yourself.
What's the drop rate on those fire knight greatswords?
>>484144154For most enemies, yeah
>>484144139>If it's pornography why can I post it on a blue board?

>>484144395BIT WHEN IS IT MY TURN TO PRESS BUTTONS
>>484144292It's at mod discretion. I remember eating bans on /vg/ for posting characters in bikinis. Not even microbikinis, but standard bikinis you'd see on a beach. This is because for some people, a bikini would fall under /e/ content. For most mods, it'll fly so long as it's ambiguous.
>>484144406A great charm has been broken
>>484144320I think I can
>>484140806You're a bit senile, old man.Not least of all because DaS2 started adding delays to boss fights with it's DLC and DaS3 has them right in it's main game with prenerf Soul of Cinder,pre-nerf Alderich, Pontif Sulyvahn, Oceiros, and Nameless King and everything in it's base gameBloodborne had pre-nerf grandpa, prenerf gasoline, Mergo's Wet Nurse (when she wasn't busy suffering from memory leaks), and obviously Orphan.But Bloodborne didn't need to just vomit delays into literally every single enemy in the game to maintain it's challenge. It did so with a greater importance of positioning and a combat cadence that put greater emphasis on simultaneous aggression.The only thing the delays have done and continue to do is push this genre closer and closer to turn based rhythm games.

quick question on a questline.If i side with thornset so he dosent get lynched by leda does that also lock ansbach questline out or does she go "its all good, anyways lets go ansbach even tho you didnt help me at all lynching thornset"?I want anbach for the final gank since its a lot more fun that way but i dont know if not helping leda with lynching thornset prevents that?sorry this is a repost from last thread i just noticed the threads dead.

>>484144025>TWO failed casting animationsincredible
>>484142513Lore wise her body looks like this which fits her ingame model. Her face is seen too when shes alive but damaged, she has a standard woman face its not round like melina or ranni but she doesnt have a man jaw like most western depictions of women. She looks like an actual women, which the troons who make mannish looking women will never be. For me it IS lore autism. I dislike off model ranni too especially ones that disregard doll features. Though it's entirely lore possible she can alter her apperance with the elden ring to go from "standard woman" to pornika. After all look at her body, no stretch marks, no fat, nothing after what? 10 pregnancies counting the mosoleums? She definitely uses the ring to keep her figure she could easily use it to alter it if she wants. TL;DR marika doesn't look like her porn counterpart but it's possible she cam turn into it
>>484144605I wish we had a bit more of her character.We got a cutscene and general personality for Messmer. Wish we'd gotten more for Rellana.

>>484145048>Maybe cheating in a couple of pieces of gear will be the new game + I'm afterIt's certainly quicker than riding torrent across the entire map gathering talismans.That is without a doubt the absolute worst part of starting over is spending 30minutes to 3 hours just waiting to play the build you want to play. NG+ would skip that but at the point that you NG+ your build stops being a build and you start being capable of doing everything. As a result, getting a friend to trade your shit to yourself is the next best thing.
>>484144891They'd rabidly hate each other and would destroy each other trying to murder the other. DaS religion revolves around the First Flame, which is a force that eats people to sustain itself and is chaotic in its most primal form, which would send up all sorts of warning flags for the Golden Order. Neither Gwyn or Marika would get along either as they're basically each others antitheses (though each are big proponents of genociding anything who does not bow to their regimes).

My friend said there's some kind of sunflower boss that's a pain in the dickWhere is it
>>484145447I don't see Marika ever being okay with it even if she knew. The story always seemed, to me, framed such that she Shattered the ring when Godwyn died.
>>484145381Isn't that kind of rubbish?

>>484145143Just pretend everything that happens in the DLC is a second story told by a different writer.Because it is.
>>484145396She was zonked out of her fucking mind
>>484145143He probably wasnt needed to enter the shadowlands. he probably wanted him for his body unironically so he made a deal about helping him with his dynsty if mohg guarded him while he slept. Mohg was only needed as a sacafrice but not like he'd agree to it even with his sissy hypno powers so he struck a deal and brainwashed mohg and his followers. probably also explains why Malenia never went to go after mohg after he "kidnapped miquella despite there being an enterence right across from the town protecting haligtree.

Reminder that his Black Knights rebelled on him instantly the moment they learned of his curse. In the Land of Shadows he has his loyal troops and a wife/women who wants to marry him to spend his days with.Consider Marika's actions through the lens of before the 21st century. She's done nothing abhorrent and as far as civilisations go she's done very well.
>>484145630I beat Gaius by spamming it because it deals absolute disgusting amounts of poise damage. Its Pest Threads but better.
>>484145097i imagine it like the reverse of greek gods, instead of semele being destroyed by seeing zeus in all his true radiance, the larger than life perfect marika is the godly image and mantle of the queen and what we see in art like that is closer to (though probably still changed inherently) what she looked like in mortal life.
>>484145691Summon Ranni and let her do the smack talking.
>>484144738>>484145814but why
I failed and given up on my quest to not talk about Him
>>484144785The 3d porn model for marika is fine. People complaining about it are retarded. I only wish the faggot who made pic related on the right also released his model. They're both decent interpretations of her, we know whe can alter her form with the elden ring and it's runes. There's no reason why we can't have porn marika AND milf marika. None.
Would ranni get a human body so she could have sex with the tarnished, after game ending?

>>484146240I dont know what that means I'm sorry
>>484145587gideon frames the shattering as something more to do with miquella. I could see it that she did it not over godwyn, but as an attempt to save her children from her own fate as a prisoner of the fingers.
>>484145396Too many legs, and not the sexy kind of legs

>>484145691>ding ding ding>summon Finlay>bring in Ansbach>bleed him with the chicken wingI'd say nothing personal but this IS personal. For Malenia and Mohg.
>>484145447>>484145587Judging by the "willing martyr" thing I think it's more in character for godwyn to NOT have been the original target, and ranni just saying "capture and kill a demigod" and godwyn, being the good bloke he is, found out about it and sacrificed himself to spare anyone else death thinking only one demigod was going to be killed(we learned they killed more just not in the way godwyn died so its possible they just did it for themselves and not for ranni after godwyn's death)
>>484146096must've missed that part my bad.maybe theres a connection with the omens and the shadow realm? Mohg is connected to the formless mother so maybe he needed the blood magic shit to get there since its pretty locked off.
>>484145489I guess the problem is that the reason to play IS the making the build, rather than the beating things with it
>>484146380Gideon only remarks that she had sorrow over miqeulla and doesn't tie the shattering to it.
>>484146397Damn..

>>484145396Brought the Scarlet Rot to the Lands Between. It's kind of funny to think how the Rot, Omens, and Frenzied Flame were all from people inviting malignant outer gods in to get revenge on Marika.
After finishing the game I'm trying some builds for coop but both magic and incantations just suck dick compared to just unga bunga, on top of costing flasks for FP.I've had enough unga bunga in the base game so I'm kinda demotivated to continue.
Where are people getting all the stuff about the Gates of Divinity? The only thing I've found that mentions them is the sacred rite scroll. If it hadn't been for discussion I wouldn't have known what the fuck the big pillars Miquella came out from between were meant to be.I'm also a brainlet who missed about the stuff about the Hornsent and the obvious Tower of Babel implications though.ALSO is Miquella becoming a God in the same sense that Marika was God, or something more like an actual Outer God?
>>484146529Bro? Your summon?
>>484146450>why do godwynfags wanna see him back>why do people want to see the one genuinely good guy and have a chat just once to see what he's likeI sometimes wonder why it's so hard to understand basic human desires.

>>484146973>>484146997>>484147007does this affect the npc quests? i've been trying to be really careful because i actually wanna do them
>>484146670MarikaOuter Gods are metaphysical in nature. Also that reminds me, what the fuck happened with Miquella trying to banish the outer gods and unalloyed gold lol. Why did the Haligtree even fail if he left of his own accord?
>>484146814
>>484146649The Frenzied Flame is not a different outer god
>>484147089yes but not really
The next game could literally force the summoning bell into your hands at the start and not give you a weapon until you use it and people would still think it's an easy mode that they aren't supposed to use as a real player. Fromsoft is probably driving themselves mad trying to figure out how to get people to use the tools they're given instead of leaving an angry negative review about it being too hard.
>>484146903There's so many missed chances>Ranni commention on Ymir and the Fingers questline>Melina giving us lore blurbs about the various things, maybe a little more confirmation she is Messmer's sister>Some kind of reaction from Rellana about you being Ranni's consort>Midra reacting to you being lord of Frenzy>Florissax reacting to you killing Placidusax.
>>484145867nta but>Nothing objectively wrong with this, the system of returning to the Erdtree upon death worked perfectly fine without issue until the paradoxal nature of Godwyn's death crashed the system.The cracks were there well before that event. Multiple people comment on how the stagnation lead to decay.But more importantly than that, the whole tarnished shit crafted elitism, general classism and whatever else and kept creating conditions where tons of people were either exiled or murdered. The entire reason the frenzy flame even found purchase (twice) is because of this. The treatment of pretty much everybody that wasn't erd tree blessed where the majority of them were pressed into involuntary service or forcefully compelled (one way or another), this wasn't exactly a utopiaIt has all the makings of a society that would spawn a story of some revolutionaries on their current trajectory assuming they didn't do a second massive fuckup and inadvertently unleash the frenzied flame wholesale.

>>484147175Until they make a boss that's balanced around fighting multiple players and has tactics to deal with more than one at the same time then you're not meant to summon.
uh oh
>>484147175just make it a stand. like how miquella is to radahn.>>484147239switch to str/fth and get one of those faith hammer/mace weapon intead. dex are for combofags.

>>484147089yes, if the npcs were still at their starting locations when this happened then your game is bricked but the chances of this are extremely small since 9999/10000 people progress the quests before triggering this event so you're probably safe
>>484146721>>484146482Oh, no I'm just lonely and obsessive about missing things

>poleblade of the budwhy did it have to be so ugly and bad
>>484144742>>484144218Wish they would have had these two fucking instead of just the typical "No he's too sad for that" shit. Would have been a kino pairing.
>>484147284Because some fujo writer just wanted her ship onscreen and didn't care about how the player engages with it.
>>4841467211. Why in the fuck does this general have a writefag archive2. Why in the fuck is it on some tranny fanfic site??
>>484145587>>484146380It's called "a conspiracy".First we don't know anything about it besides somehow Godwyn died.Then we learn that Ranni was involved in getting Destined Death so she could kill her body.But how did she do it? Why was she so easily able to get some of that Death from the dog that never let it go?Cause Marika helped her. There's this dialogue alongside Gurranq/Maliketh's stuff that I'm not sure if it was cut or not (I know he has similar lines about the shattering):>[202030000] O Marika...<br />>[202030010] What...happened?<br />>[202030020] Was I...myself the fool?<br />>[202030030] Or was I tricked...by thee?<br />>[202030040] O Marika...<br />>[202030050] Why wouldst thou...relinquish...<br />>[202030060] Why... </p>There's a simpler similar line when you kill him as Gurranq in the beast church:>Marika...why...wouldst thou...gull me? Why...shatter...Though that one is more about the shattering itself. Still though, it seems to be that Maliketh feels betrayed or tricked by Marika considering the "gull me" bit.We also find out that Marika has a child who was born to burn down the Erdtree (Melina) and she outright said for Godfrey and the Tarnished to go out, die, and come back stronger to take the Ring once more.Finally, there's her line to Radagon before shattering the Ring, spoken by Melina in Marika's Bedchamber:>In Marika's own words. O Radagon, leal hound of the Golden Order. Thou'rt yet to become me. Thou'rt yet to become a god. Let us be shattered, both. Mine other self.It all paints a picture that Marika herself planned a lot of this shit out and wanted the Golden Order/Age of the Erdtree to end. She didn't care who took over after apparently, but she just wanted it over with. Godwyn's death was a diversion so she could break the Ring, not the reason she broke it.

>Don't like summoning for bosses unless I'm absolutely desperate>Feel like I'm missing out if I don't summon people like Igon for BayleHelp
>>484147849Being Lord of the Frenzied flame doesn't really mean much until you become take down Elden Beast. Until then you're just a candidate.
>>484147942Igon barely does any damage, he's just there for flavor. Honor a home's last request, he asked you nicely.
>>484147175If they want me to summon so bad why do they give all the bosses in the DLC a fuck you gap closer that doesn't let you summon
>>484147908I LITERALLY MADE A DRAGON INCANT CHARACTER YEARS AGO AND HEADCANON'D HIM HAVING A DRAGON DICKNOW IT'LL PAY OFF

>>484147849anon YOU BLOW UP THE FUCKING ERDTREE YES YOU ARE STRONGER
>>484147849It's not really about strength. The lord just has to resist being consumed long enough to let chaos take the world
>>484147336Ansbach acknowledges you killed Mohg which half counts.
>>484148137Very cute, where can I join his Age of Compassion
>>484147908>>484147556>>484147336That's not her reaction to you killing PlaciYou drug her with Thollier's sleep potion and she sleeps for the first time. She was up until then offering her sleep to Placi who is stuck beyond time likely unable to sleep.So she offers up her sleep to himWhen you drug her, it makes her feel unworthy of Placi and being his servant. So she demands you become her lord instead once you admit what you did.
>>484145867>Ripped Destined Death out of the ER>Nothing objectively wrongmy nigga the jars are something out of WH40K and that is just one of the many horrifying outcomes of that one horrible decision she made, the entire story is about paving the road to hell with good intentions, they went from an initial couple thousand years of heavenly existence until inevitably immortality was weaponized and the family completely betrayed each other in often horrifically violent and soul-mutilating ways
>>484147849Yes. Midra didn't become a true Lord. >>484147908No yeah I got that. It was only because I admitted to her that I put her to sleep. Placidusax (assuming she's not just imagining things) cuts her off when she breaks her oath and stops funneling her sleep to him. She's pretty mopey until she reaches her own epiphany after dunking on Bayle
>>484146605:)
>>484147089It actually does, listen carefullyGet all 6 forager brood books, then talk to moore to get the 7th one then tell him to go fucking kill himself and then go pick up his stuff from the church northwest of the entrance to Altus region.After that go south into the cerulean hole, go down a hole, then keep going down until you fight a knight and reach a drug den, talk to Thollier until he fucks off to the drug den, then talk to his waifu 4 times (it's lethal, so be careful), then talk to him, go rest, play fistycuffs, then go talk to him again and cuck him until he starts going "ahhhh..." like the cuck he is.After that talk to Freyja and Ansbach until they move to the shadow keep, keep that in mind for later.Go to dryleaf dane and do his "let's foite cunt" emote he gave you, wreck his to get his fists, after that talk to hornsent and Leda until you exhaust their dialogues, Leda is going to switch into women mode so refresh the game until she reaches the logical conclusion (for a woman) that the hornigger must die, NOW, go to the black keep front entrance, in the area with some boats and help her kill the hornigger, loot his stuff. Now here comes the (relatively) hard part, proceed further into the keep in a library area, talk to Ansbach in the first floor, then find Freyja in the seventh floor being a dumb illiterate cunt, after that retread your steps until you find a scroll that unlocks after you talk to freya in the fifth-sixth floor and start going back and forth between her and ansbach until she gives you her shield, after that go to Leda again, she will tell you they have to kill the old man because she is a psychotic murdercutie and a love her, after that go back to the first floor where ansbach was and help him correct the murderqt and you are pretty much unbricked. Just make sure to use the golden signs of Ansbach and thollier in the final area at least once when you see them and you set.
>>484147908don't this happen after dateraping her?
i did it !! not pretty but whateverthis ones for you erg
>>484147908So they actually could have added some conditional dialogues with the main NPCs but instead we got a single one regarding placi and that's it? Fuck you zaki!
>>484148245So why can't we do this in the Miquella fight?
>>484147908I had the same lines on my first playthrough IIRC, and I definitely didn't kill placi on this run (didn't even kill fire giant)it seems to reference the fact that you drugged her and so her lord no longer talks to her (she mentions that previously) rather than literally killing her lord
>>484148149qt
>>484148149
>palicos? nah, I never use them, that's cheap
>>484147219>The cracks were there well before that event. Multiple people comment on how the stagnation lead to decay.It's easy to say this after the fact once The Shattering ruined everything, what evidence is there of the decay before that event?>Elitish, General classismWelcome to the world before the 21st century. It's a fact of life that this is just how things are, even without Marika in power.Reminder the Albinauric are the Carian's doing and not the Golden Order>Tons of people exiled or murderedWho?>OmenExiled yes but they're not in any great number and quite possibly they had noble sympathisers in Leyndell given that some the Sanguine nobles are described as being nobles.>MerchantsTheir people seem to have an inherent connection to the Frienzied Flame given Kale and the rest of the merchants can cast Frenzy spells while still being sane. The Frenzied Flame is the enemy of all life and their genocide is more just than any other genocide in the setting.
>>484148458Based parry god. Well done.
>>484148504Literally /mhg/ daily, the poison this series has created has seeped into other fanbases
>>484148458based, fuck that guy
>>484148458gj anon!!
Fextra's timeline of the game has this quote from Wacky Zaki that I think really fills in the core theme of the game even if the story is a mess:>What can represent these rules and order but also not be absolute?>And the tree really fits the bill nicely for that because the tree is something that's alive, it's something that grew, it's something that will eventually wither and die.>And this really fits the role of something that can then bestow this order, control these rules, and enforce these rules on the world.>Because these too are things that will grow and will change and will wither and die as well.>So I feel that the tree this time is something that fits those elements both visually and thematically.>But saying any more than that would definitely go into spoiler territory.It's all about the cycle of ages. Empires rise, fall, die, and new ones are born.>It happened with the Dragons, with Placi being fucked up by Bayle.>It happened with the Hornsent, with them being fucked over by Marika.>It will happen with the Golden Order, with Marika being fucked by us.The Age of the Erdtree was supposed to be an attempt to break the cycle by the removal of Destined Death, but this just led to withering and rot without death and rebirth, which is why Marika put everything in motion for us to burn the tree and let things finally move on.
>>484148317>makes her feel unworthy of PlaciI don't think it's a feeling. She outright can't give blessings any more when she comes to. In her own words she got cast aside. "an old dragon no longer" Really I think having the first satisfying sleep... ever and realizing how much better you are than Placidusax probably got her seeing some special.Though given her spell description and ash description she fell in love somewhere along the way. That was pretty quick.
>>484140806The reason you flinch is because momentum exists in the real world. Enjoy your literally artificial difficulty in the most literal sense of those words. Because in a videogame the two ton hammer can just magically stop for a half day.
>>484147089Apparently you lost the ability to get Florissax's ashes (since you needed Thollier's potion which he only makes before the rune shatters since it needs Moore to give him a thing)Also you lose the last of the forager cookbooks apparently.Didn't know that part.
>>484148440>>484147089Oh, also do all that BEFORE killing Messmer.
>>484148325You're mistaken anon. The jars in the Land of Shadow are that. The jars that the Golden Order used, their purpose is to transport dead bodies to catacombs and to dumb the bodies on the roots of the Erdtree at the end of the catacomb so that the body and soul may return to the Erdtree for reincarnation.That's why the end of every catacomb has all those bodies on the roots. The system when we play is just all fucked up due to Godwyn's death, the roots no longer accept new bodies/souls. That's why there's ghosts all over the place giving lore dumps.
>>484147515>genuinely has 6 player multiplayer sessionsat such a cost
>>484148781>Also you lose the last of the forager cookbooks apparently.You can still get 7Just don't talk to him until you've gotten the other 6. Then talk to him twice. Once to decide what he's going to do and again to get the book before he fucks off to do whatever you suggested he do.
>>484138357not even close
The one time I play a dex build and Ranni refuses to appear to give me the summoning bell. Repeated attempts with torrent on me at night and she just wouldn't appear. I was forced to PAY for my wolves and bell. Why does she hate dex players so much?
SELLENCHADS WE'RE GAINING
>>484148317>>484148742I still can't believe we outright cuck people TWICE in the DLC. First Placidussax with stealing his priestess, then Thiollier by getting St. Trina to talk to us when he's so desperate for it.
>>484149059You skip that encounter once you enter Liurnia, I think
>Dryleaf Arts with deflecting tearI'll never do it, though.
>>484147414>animal abuse is... LE FUNNYCan we just ban brownids from the site already?
>>484148486She stole my heart. Perfection <3
>>484148742It's funny watching fags try and cope with literally date raping some woman. "She saw something super special!!"Yeah sure. Stay in your room creep.
MIdra felt really hard as a caster, especially since my main options didn't do nearly as much damage as usual so I swapped over to Black Steel Greathammer and had to learn stamina management, charge attack timings and to not get greedy to beat him. All things I more or less dodged for the other 200 hours of gameplay.Kind of silly it took me this long to learn these fundamental things but in the end I learned them and the boss was pretty fun. I'd rank him in my top 5 or top 3 bosses thus far.
>>484147908that's if you drug her and she breaks her oath by falling asleep
>"gay people aren't pedophiles!">elden ring releases a DLC about a canonically biological child with feminine attributes>"femboy" fetishists come out of the woodwork to fetishize this character to a profound extenthmmmmm
>>484147515>People probably just haven't figured out how to turn it off in settingsit requires reading an ini so 90% of people probably never will
is the west side of the map, with that long ass bridge blocked by messmer?
>>484147175Actually give the bosses attacks and ai that can handle multiple people. The best FROMSOFT did in ER is having the boss change targets mid combo and unnaturally rotate 180 degrees.
>Trying to help with Bayle>Scadu lvl8>Scadu lvl7>Scadu lvl10>Scadu lvl9Holy fucking shit, people...
>>484149309No.
>>484147515Wait soYou can now seamless co-op while seamless invading if you download both of these mods?The lack of oversight over cheaters seems like a good way to end up with bricked PCs sadly, which is a damn shame because this would unironically be fucking great.>However there was literally 0 effort put into generating regions and spawns, you're just tossed somewhere randomly in the world regardless whether you've been there or notThis is hilarious>invader spawns in the fucking mountaintop>you have to track down the host and his friends>across the entire map>they can go into boss fights while you're doing thisThat'd be some fucking kino. Also makes sense the mobs aggro you if that's the case, something to do and keep you busy on the way.
>>484149192Turtles cant taste spicy food
>>484149174I do like to go there early for the hip lantern, maybe that's why.
>>484148781>Florrisax's ashesi have never touched spirit ashes so not much of a loss, but what cookbooks are you talking about?>>484148440very helpful anon, thanks bro
>>484147414That's funny. I encountered a shitload of Swift Slash hosts, enough to just put madness perfume with the broken WA in my loadout to counter it.Invading on low levels is super chill though.
>>484149309No. Looks around the first floor of the storehouse. It's a big obviously elevator down.
>>484146605LMAO
>>484149309No, nothing is blocked by messmer except the final dungeon because he is too busy beating the old snake in his goontower to block anyway.Just explore harder nigger.
>>484147417That's nearly every boss in this DLC besides the hippo. I mean that unironically, every single boss from Bayle to Radahn hit in directions they're not even facing.
>>484149361They fucked up by making Bayley accessible so early.
>>484148625>>484148683>>484148708thanks!no idea how to beat this guy with a normal build
>>484148653not the palicos but i never use mantles and if you use temporal mantle you didn't beat MHW
Who got btfo the hardest by the DLC, Radahnfags Miquellafags or Maleniafags?
>>4841493618 is fine in terms of survivability if you put damage negation talismans on. Actually killing him is probably a pain if you're summoning though.
>>484149361I beat him at scadu 5 or 6Me, Igon and Tiche wrecked his ass.
>>484149157We also cuck Blaidd and Godfrey in the base game. ER is truly an NTRpilled game.
>>484149280Don't forget, the gay male twin commits indirect necrophilia with his omenigger brother's body AND mind control rapes the soul of his other brother who he shoves into the dead brother's body
>>484149530Malenia fags for getting 0 new lore besides the fact Miq didnt actually care about her at all
>>484149548You mean Tiche had passionate sex with him while you and Igon watched
>>484149361Look man. You don't understand. Also I did him at Scadu 2Tried to help other people who are like fucking 8-12 and I literally can't do enough dmaage to kill him before my host dies.In 17 or so attempts I rammed ONE (1) host through Bayle, and only because he didn't summon somebody else. Three manning that piece of shit without the host dying is nigh impossible.
>summoning another phantomyou just know it's over
>>484148458Good job. Medium shield chads fucking won.
>>484148458you beat the game
>>484148325Shadow Land jars and Golden Order jars are completely different
>>484149407>Not getting every single named spirit Ash and upgrading it to 9 or 10 so you can slowly form an RPG party that hangs with you and sometimes makes comments and you all camp out at gracesNgmi.
>>484149370>>484149445>>484149467oh im retarded, i saw the elevator, told myself id go down it later, and completely forgot about it. thanks
Can a sexy, off model 3D rig of Florrisax get made and popular like the Marika one?I like dragon women.
Rellana has too much poise, fix that and her fight becomes one of the best in the game.
>>484147494Pretty sure it doesn't brick anything. You can still get the books from retarded autism creature until he leaves. All you need to be able to do is have one thollier potion and it won't affect anything else. Dane and the rest don't even move until you exhaust dialogue.The only other brick that exists is walking into Mesmer's arena without knowing, since that cucks you out of a potential Hornsent talisman for dash attacks.
>>484149530Faith/int incantations casters. A whole fucking DLC devoted to Miquella, and not ONE new incantation that uses int/faith. To add insult to injury, there's a new discus-y spell... BUT IT ONLY USES FAITH
Someone has a video or a breakdown of how scaling works in this game? I wanna understand it at a deeper level than "just know these softcaps" desuLike, for example, is B scaling on a greatsword the same as a B scaling on a spear? Is S always absolutely better, even better than two As? Things like that
>>484148845>no anon you don't understand that was just some jars, not all of them>completely ignores everything elsewhatever bro the story totally isn't me killing all of the abominations made by this horror show because marika's 2D tictactoe plan was to ultimately have some dingus kill her whole family and flush it down the drain to start something new
>>484149530Miquellabros. I expected soliloquys about the nature of reality and the world as he explained stuff, what Enir-Ilim is, what the Gate is, what the Erdtree and the Elden Ring connect to it all, but all I got was one cutscene of him on his knees thinking about Radahn. What a fucking ripoff.
>>484146891>24fps
>>484149529>icebornes meta just became about maximizing the uptime of those ugly ass mantlesPlease don't let this be the next game
>>484147021anon messmer knew radahn, the sealing of the death world didn't happen right at the beginning.
>>484149753Only if it looks like this.
>>484149785It's not quick, but this guy's is a pretty in depth breakdown of it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAFWQr08SZE
>>484149693>could not summon the phantom>because i blocked him beforehand
>>484149753doubtful, in game model is too fucked up. Vykefags assumed the form was much more humanoid, Miyazaki monkey pawed them
>>484149825>>completely ignores everything elseYou didn't name anything other than the jars, just "many horrifying outcomes"Name them.
>>484149841They actually went and cucked the Miquellabros
>>484149785>b scaling on a greatsword the same as b scaling on a spear.No because spears deal less damage overall, but the percentage by which the damage is increased? Yes>is S always betterDepends. If you've got a an 80 80 stat spread, then two As are better than a single S, but the thing is that you usually don't go 80 80 due to how people tend to limit their levels to certain spots (like 150 for ER) so in that sense, S is better than two As if you got all in one that one stat.
>>484148781you can give him the black syrup as soon as you meet Moore>he doesn't talk to each npc every 20 minutes
>>484147515Can players respawn if an invader is in their world?
>>484147101miquella is a consistent failure, that's the answer to all your questions.
>>484149970Honestly, makes me respect Vyke even more.
>>484149779Needing 23 Int to pick up the fun-est incantation was pretty retarded to begin with.
>>484149530I was a miquellafag and expected at least some negative aspects to his character to be exposed but I also would've liked to personally talk to him like an NPC and interact with him more, something we don't get much of with the other demigods. Then the gay pedophile mindcontrol incest stuff came and I sort of checked out of the story of the DLC entirely by that point. I still liked Ansbach though.
>>484150035I know you can I'm just saying what you can potentially miss
>>484149530The Twins both got BTFO'd the hardest.Malenia's badass battle with Radahn seen as the height of the Shattering reduced to Malenia being a loan shark hitman sent on hit by her butthurt fag twin whose upset their brother doesn't want to homosex with him, so they try to kill him to buttrape his soul by force.That first Elden Ring Trailer is destroyed by the DLC.
>>484150016I mean fuck. Leda got to hear the lore of the beginning, she got to know the fucking plan. All I got was "Pass Gate. Get Radanh. Plan complete". The only fucking person who you can even ask the nature of reality to is fucking YMIR.
>>484143358I don't remember this line
>>484149530Miquellafags. DLC was supposed to be all about him but really he's just vaguely mentioned until the last 3 minutes of the DLC where it turns out he's a gay incest mind controlling freak.
I assume these aren't friendly?
>>484150146Needing 13 to use one of the best at all is fucking ridiculousThe Faith/Int shit was retarded fuck you Miyazaki let me have spells as a faith builds already holy fuck
>>484149280>>484149607all they had to do is make him a feminine adult to avoid a massive portion of the weird undertones.
>>484149530Godwynfags and anyone saying otherwise is just forgetting he even exists that's how btfo he is.
>>484149753>can scalies get popular like blondes with big tits and a shapely asses
>>484150209>That first Elden Ring Trailer is destroyed by the DLC.Good.
made a new thread, use when you feel like it>>484150273>>484150273>>484150273
>>484149530>>484149615Actually no we get lore in the base game saying she bloomed and asexually reproduced due to intense emotions during her fight with radahn by gowry, we now know why. She's canonically a fujo who coomed at the thought of radahn and her brother fucking
>>484150305Talk to them and find out
>>484150305No, only the white bugs are good
>>484150298>mind controlling freak.That part was always true even before the DLC started fucking everything up.There's enough descriptions that state that he could control hearts. The original drafts supposedly just had him being a sociopath with a savior complex, which he still is.
>>484149693>Spent like a gazillion years killing a max level>Host runs away while two blues who spawned instantly distract me so the host can kick one of the blues and resummon his actual friend>The blue left still fights to the death
>>484150402I wish you'd stop shitposting this.
Anyone else not care about the character assassination of Miquella and Malenia in the DLC? I never found their story interesting to begin with.
>>484150209>brother doesn't want to homosex with himI'm fairly sure his motivation was nobler. Since he's described as kind, i assume he understood that divinity is going to cage Miquella and sealed the fate.
>>484149490>>484149534>>484149548>>484149668He literally has too much health on co-op for low scuba levels. I shredded him when I fought him on my own but in co-op I'm tickling him with a heavy bleed build.
>>484150467>The original drafts supposedly just had him being a sociopath with a savior complexWhere is this?
>>484149984one son is a 5 IQ feral zombie in perpetual agony, another had it's soul killed whatever that means, weaponizing immortality gave way to grafting and jars (yes the scadu ones, do you have a point?) which is just phenomenal oh and genocide, everywhere, everyone, always and all the time
>>484145889Holy mother fucking of KINO
>>484150662I guess because you get your bonuses from the ash level not the scoobydoo level?I dunno.
>>484149530Everyone lost>Radahnfags get their champ back as a completely silent and mindraped puppet who is also the shittiest fight of the DLC>Maleniafags get NOTHING and the creeping certainty that Miq stopped caring about her long ago>Miquellafags were expecting either a glorious ally against Messmer or a JUST AS KEIKAKU devious mastermind. The latter turned out partly true but the endgame was getting his bara brother as a consort so yeah
>>484150854>one son is a 5 IQ feral zombie in perpetual agonyWhat the FUCK are you talking about>GodwynA problem Ranni created>GraftingNot related to destined death being removed. Grafting is an ability that all of Marika's people have access to, it's why the Hornsent put them into jars. It's how Marika grafted Serosh onto Godfrey and Godrick being a descendant of Marika is why he is able to graft.
>>484145858Psh. That's about as Carian as Twinned Knight Swords or Great Epee.
>>484145691Kill them without speaking
>>484149361i am going to battle with him on 0 scadu!! i am very excite
>>484147284There's a real possibility of this happening in a mod. Repurpose Miquella's model doing this into Ranni and if you want Ranni to talk use AI voice, it's pretty good with Ranni's voice for whatever reason.
>>484149530Maleniafags for sure. She's not the hardest boss anymore and her reasoning for nuking caelid is so stupid
>>484150305Fuck around, find out
>>484145961Wow this doesn't help me at all since I didn't go for Miyazaki's favorite shitty NPC. Does Ranni really need to be sucked off even more?Retards

>>484155717Just holy as far as I can tell. Fire is what you use to kill it.
>>484155717Holy. Also hit its face, use one of the Smithscrip weapons if you have it upgraded and just chuck spears/knives/hammers/axes/shields into it.
