I don't get the lore regarding Marika and shamans.
First of all, hornset worshipped divine beasts and the crucible, and tried to reach skies (heavens) with their spirals. How is stuffing random criminals and blondes into pots related to that? If pots were kept in gaols, what was the point of their "sainthood"? I don't even know what Zaki means when he calls someone a saint.

Second of all, we knew that Numen were rarely born, long-lived, from outside LB and capable of crafting powerful tools like Marika's hammer. We see nothing of the sort in the shaman village. In particular, it's an example of the trope that annoys me in fantasy in general. You can't have a race that is both rare and stuffed in jars (or otherwise genocided) en masse. It's not enough to make jars and too much to let it exist still. Also in the main game, we found Numen runes in the underground areas. Why don't they come from there/settle there? What is the timeline of Numen vs Nox vs Eternal cities? Nox were banished by the Greater Will, so it must have been early.

Lastly, Maliketh was a gif to Marika as an empyrean. Fingers select empyreans and give out shadows. We find finger ruins but no trace of fingers influencing the hornsent. And if Marika was an empyrean, means she likely had a high status from the start - otherwise, why would she have her own two fingers instead of going into a jar?

One thing we knew about Marika from the base game was that she disliked death ("Let a new epoch begin. An epoch glistening with life"), so this kind of background is fitting, but I strongly dislike the execution

No one here actually plays the game. Remember people kept saying the dlc takes place after the base game because miquella and leda refer to you as lord of the old order and lord of the haligtree, when miquella's introduction dialog calls you ASPIRING lord of the old order. And leda says you're here to kill miquella so you can become elden lord with no threats to you.

I am so tired of the bosses/enemies in the DLC. It's just spam-fest 2024. They are always moving, always attacking, always dodging, always gap closing, always on the offensive. Spam this move, spam that move, input read this, input read that, smash you on the ground so you're forced to stand up, only to be smashed down again. AOE explosions on half their moves, they can choose to cancel the AOE at any moment too to fuck with you so if you think it's coming, it isn't, and if you think you'll be safe to chug/roll/etc, nah they just blow up and fuck you that way too.

I mean god damn... it's just so boring. I love all the areas, the look and designs, all that shit, but my god, actually playing through this shit is tiresome as fuck.

>>
>>484357287
I just abused summons, buffs, and OP weapons, and chug as much as possible. I genuinely do not see the point in playing otherwise, it's just a massive test of patience to fight the bosses otherwise. There's no actual challenge to it, just memorization until you beat them solo; or you just suck it up and abuse what the game gives you and "succeed". The only reason they might even be considered "hard" is because 1 attack does 50+% of your HP even if you have tons of the scadue buffs and high vig.

Frankly I don't care about "winning" or anything of that shit, I genuinely find the enemy/boss design to just be so fucking trite and boring.

Going from the dlc scadu level 20 back to the base game feels so fucking terrible my god. The dlc really was like 5 times easier.
>>
>>484357309
I don't think there's anything "wrong" with any of them, I just hate the Elden Ring trend of "boss winds up after doing several fast attacks but intentionally has a build in stall which is designed to trick you into rolling early". It feels extremely cheap the first time it hits you and then after you know it's coming you basically never get hit by it again. I get that they felt the need to counter roll spamming but it just doesn't feel satisfying or interesting to me. I admittedly did die to Messmer about 10 or so more times than I did Radahn but both bosses didn't really feel insanely tough or exciting or anything.

I usually roll my eyes at the "souls games should just be sekiro type directions" type arguments but if they really feel the need to be le hard game company then it feels to me like the ceiling on the difficulty of the souls formula is running out. It just seems like they're running out of ideas on how they can make things harder within the confines of the actual combat system, and that leads to kinda silly enemy design that veteran players will get surprised once or twice by and casual players will seethe relentlessly at.

>Objective flaws in Radahn's design
1. Radahn's afterimage attacks have no hurtbox and he can do these grounded so some punishes to attacks get "eaten" by his after image strikes turning off his hurtbox frame 0 as he charges them.
2. Radahn's love of long anime combos can lead to periods of 20 or more seconds where he is only vulnerable for a tiny amount of time, removing interactivity and forcing you to play a damage avoidance minigame where the dilemma on where to push aggression is completely ignored
3.The boss has no answer to greatshield strats.
4. The boss has numerous one-shot attacks in his arsenal which can kill even with 60 Vig + 20 Skibidi + defensive talismans thanks to multi-hit protections not being properly enabled. His grounded afterimage attack can oneshot you, and his air combo from meteors can kill you if the ground slam hits, since it combos into the light pillars into the AoE light pillars.
5. The boss has attacks that are undodgable outside of elevation differences. The 1-2 slash even had challenge runners using Crucible talismans for extra i-frames
6. Visual disaster - A combination of Miquella's hair a giant bright white beams and the effect on his afterimages make parsing what goes on in the fight almost impossible.
7. Inconsistent effects - the ground crumble effect used on his stomp and pulling his weapon out of the ground are the same and usually indicate grounded attacks but you can jump the stomp while not being able to do so for the weapon pull.
8. Height jank with the uneven arena is rife which causes unintended interactions and random whiffs
9. Uneven moveset. Some moves can oneshot you and have no hurtbox while others like Miquella's Light, his grab or his tornado gravity gapcloser are easy to avoid and have gigantic punish windows which both encourages AI abuse and makes winning feel overly dependent on 'lucky patterns'. If Radahn spammed the 1-2-cross slash the fight is artificially much harder than one where he spams grabs.

>>
>>484357575
Someone post the Sir Gideon pic
>>
>>484357575
10. His grab gives you so much free time that it's arguably better to trade and get hit by it in a lot of cases as Radahn just stands there post grab and you get a full stamina refill. You should NEVER want to get hit by an attack.
11. Getting into Phase 2 with a crit doesn't teleport you to Radahn which breaks the intended flow of the fight.
12. Boss is very easy to parry cheese or Deflectcheese. The final boss shouldn't be so weak to defensive strategies, he shouldn't completely crumble the moment the player steps outside of rolling.
13. Some defensive strategies are framerate dependent, on a fight that directly attacks your FPS. Running away post gravity suck is perfect if you get a solid framerate but any dips and you die instantly.
14. Poor performance on a lot of his moves in general.
15. Very poor looking animations on a lot of his moves, specifically the spinning gravity gapcloser and Miquella's T-pose
16. Unlike good fights (Gael) Radahn has very few audio cues to denote specific combos, which would have been a great way to make up for the visual mess.
17. Not a consistent direction for Radahn's dive which is a fucking terrible way to implement an attack that kills you if it hits.

t. just finished my 4th DLC run

Not him but you could get good at souls games, it's why people thought ds3 was so easy when it came out, because they became good at souls games, their muscle memory for dodging was already developed, so just based on instinct and reaction most players just blew through ds3. Elden ring isn't designed like that, its attacks are designed to throw you off, like I didn't have to learn fights back in ds3 because I could get them in the first try or two, not really the case now.

>>484357018
I'm still seeing people say you're already elden lord, which is stupid. In DLC, characters act like you're very close and the best prospect for elden lord. Hornsent says it almost explicitly in the gank fight by calling you lord. It's clear that the DLC takes place at the very last stretch of the journey since it requires Mohg's defeat, and Mohg's level makes him an endgame boss. But you literally could not be Elden Lord by then.

Literally every problem could be solved by nerfing stamina instead of making the game more anime.

I have characters with 10 end and its not fun you just hit that threshold and get fucking yeeted when the boss decides you're dead now cause you can't do anything and its really easy to hit that threshold unless you only ever attack a maximum of twice and roll once to dodge.

Does anybody know if From patched this exploit so you can get two Serpent Killer spears? I leveled mine up to +10 and the exploit requires you to trash yours first and then either invade or use co-op to first get one, then go back to your world and get the one you're supposed to have. I'm willing to do it since I have like 9 giganigga somber stones and don't care, but if it's all for nought, then screw it. I'm at the yellow wall right now but I might hold off for now until I find out.

Alright so let me give a straight to the point overview of seamless coop mod invasions
>EAC is the devil, it's removal improved hit reg which also means iframes are improved, make hits harder to land on both sides
>Invader flasks aren't gimped so even a 4v1 is manageable because you have all 14 flasks, especially since the entire enemy part is forced to have honest equipment so no surprise WA spams at lower levels
>When you kill any of their party, they can't respawn until they all die or you die, stopping the whole host running like a bitch waiting for his friend to replace his sign to be summoned back
>If you are in the open world, you can ride torrent as an invader
>You can summon ashes as an invader, but damage is inconclusive and the host party has to aggro your ash for your ash to target them
>Invasion spawn points are worse than the actual game. I have spawned next to Godwyn in stormveil when the fucker isnt even in stormveil but Limgrave
>Invaders don't get respawn fingers for some reason, maybe due to not being a real red phantom
>Sometimes you and the host team can't see each other, forcing a disconnect
>Cowards will disconnect on you faster than in the real game, because they didn't know invasions are on by default and have no clue how to turn it off
Overall, not ideal, but worth giving the cowards a big scare that the "you are being invaded by redmanbad" message has arrived to their safe space

>>484358375
>How much longer is From gonna keep this garbage input buffering/delay system for rolls in their games?
It's because they made it the same button that governs sprinting (and in older games jumping) so they opted to make rolling happen on button release.
If you want to experience instant rolls and you're on Steam you can use Steam's in built controller settings and change whatever your roll button is to "start press", which basically makes it release as soon as you press it, but this disables sprinting because you can't hold down the button.
I'm sure there's some autistic solution around it, but idk.

I think the DLC is better than the base game. On my first playthrough of Elden Ring I got burnt out halfway through and came back a few months later to finish it, there are way too many copy paste dungeons and massive open word areas filled with samey content. SOTE is like the base game with the fat trimmed, much tighter experience. Shadow Castle mogs all base game dungeons, Midra and Messmer mog all base game bosses, and Radahn mogs Elden Beast as a final fight. Only thing I don't like is lore changes and skibidis

the old poll was fucked because it needed you to rank all the female characters in the game and had a fuckton of random niggas e.g. alecto, big albinauric woman from the mountains

Reminder that there is no evidence Mohg was being mind-controlled until he came into contact with Miquella. Bloodcult, murder, kidnapping is all him. Smashing twink bussy is debatable, but considering nobody else acted that way, that probably is still him.

I'm used to getting better at the souls games but I'm suprised at just how easy early game elden ring is upon returning to it.
I've never even gotten that far into the game (I think Leonine was like the hardest boss I thought back then, although they weren't that tough)

you can take a look /a/ if you want to look at the trash that Japan is producing for itself these days. 80% of sales happen in Japan so japanese devs think the optimal way is to cater to the japanese audience which coincidentally has no taste these days.

And normies eat it up, I started watching vaati to see what we're going to deal with in the nearest future in terms of lore talk and he unironically said that we finally know what Malenia said to Radahn.

main game bosses have really good build up: NPC dialogue, item descriptions, earlier encounter (ancestor spirit), and then cutscenes and more info/dialogue.
Putrescence knight is a nobody, Gaius is never mentioned before his fight unless I missed something, Romina has no build up.
Going by DLC's logic, we should have draconic tree sentinel and Loretta remembrance (and Loretta had more presence than some of these remembrance bosses)

Heal From Afar is the single best healing spell in the game. Not just for coop, the best in general. Lord's Heal tier healing but costs 20 fp less and casts faster.

An anon from here helped me with Mohg after I had a couple of failed attempts get way too close for me to be fucked trying to do it alone. Most of the stuff I mainly wanted was easy enough to beeline for, but I went out of my way to kill Ralva just for his pelt because the fashion was too good to pass up on; took a little while to take him down but he's a pretty fun fight. Also had to take out Red Bear also for the eventual fashion I wanna use and his claws; that dude is just a cunt, as most NPC fights are.

Am i just retarded, or is build variety nonexistent? Every time i plan a new build, it always degrades into either 54/20 STR/DEX poise monster, or 80 INT or FTH caster. ARC just sucks as a primary stat.

Mohg beating the allegations are memes that smart people shitpost and that idiots/shallow thinkers take seriously. Mohg was always a depraved psychopath. Miquella almost definitely charmed him, but that is not mutually exclusive to Mohg's goals from the beginning. At best, Miquella gave him a push.

I just found this out, btw:
Going minimum on FTH while going for split DEX/STR gives HIGHER dmg numbers according to this generator that going minimum on DEX and going split FTH/STR with the same overall point investment. It's only like 8 point, but still it's kinda weird.
Does anyone know why?

idk the exact reason or numbers
but I've been playing with these axes since basically the beginning and I can give you my PoV

the main damage from the weapon is the weapon itself. the lightning damage us extremely minimal
so I assume that the Dex scaling is on the upper edges and the fth scaling is on the lower edges

>>484362401
Doesn't that seem obvious? It has higher base physical damage than holy. Holy scales with the FTH, while physical with STR and DEX. Of course it's a STR/DEX weapon with a FTH tax.

>>484362841
No but I mean it literally doesn't seem to get any damage from stats. I tested it with each stat and none of them increased it's damage. This has got to be a bug.

The demigod mosoleum tarnished theory can't work for a few reasons
1. The tarnished can be of any race or origin marika is a numen with caucasian facial structure. She wouldn't be able to birth a wholly asian child
2. The demigods there are SOULLESS meaning either their souls have moved on or they god godwyn'd and their souls are gone permanently, dead.
3. The tarnished are specifically said to be warriors of godfrey and their descendants there's no indication they have any relation to marika
4. There's undoubtedly a mosoleum somewhere near you, but it's NEAR you meaning you were either dumped out of it somehow on resurrection(unlikely) or resurrected near it
5. You awaken in the interstace between the outside world and lands between the fog between worlds essentially, that's where you hear the mosoleum, its more likely there was just a mosoleum passing by when you revived.
Nothing points to the tarnished being a demigod son of marika and everything can be explained away easily

The throw is a free ranged harassment tool so the usefulness of that can't be overstated, but besides that it's a great hammer; kinda hard to hit people who don't wanna be hit. For that I pull out Red Bear's Claws for the faster moveset and chasedowns. If I could I'd use the regular Beast Claws and infuse it with a better AoW but I don't have the dex for it but I would if I started as Vagabond, which really burns my ass.

So I was trying to figure out how I'm going to build my pacifist healslut (for offline summons and/or mimic tear) and I've been a bit confused by the wiki. It seems healing is based upon a varied multiplier of the incantation scaling which is dependent upon the seal. So does that mean having more faith doesn't make me heal more and it is just a check to USE the spell than HEAL efficiency?
>>
>>484364562
No actually ingame fortisaxx is only referred to as "it" oddly enough.
>>
>>484364656
It turn out the fact that there is so little story and consistent characterization means that people can come up with all sorts of headcanon and only be contradicted by a single item whose PoV might be biased, insane, or misinformed.

>>484364710
the heal amount is based on your faith incantation scaling, so yes, it depends on the amount of faith you have
>>
>>484364710
>So does that mean having more faith doesn't make me heal more and it is just a check to USE the spell than HEAL efficiency?
Having more faith always increases the incantation scaling. The incantation scaling for a seal is like the damage for a weapon, it has a base which depends on upgrade level, and then it scales according to your stats (the scaling also depends on upgrade level).

wait so i dont understand
i mean being president gives you immunity anyway, or it was not like that before?
>>
>>484364710
Buffs and heals only take into account the scaling you get from faith, so just use erdtree for 80, godlsaying for 60 and dryleaf (when it's fixed) 50 faith.

>>484364743
More often than not, these opinions are short-sighted and shallow to me. Miquella isn't Griffith. The whole point of St.Trina is that he genuinely believed what he was doing was right. Divesting himself of everything was supposed to be pennance for his lineage and a step to becoming a god.

Charm does not make you a mindless Miquella loving zombie. It changes your direction to prioritizing Miquella. It still leaves you as yourself. Leda and the others exist to show you that they are mostly themselves, but not assholes. Hornsent still dislikes Marika's band but he leaves things up to Miquella to redeem his people. When the charm breaks, he becomes a revenge-obsessed maniac like he used to be, yet he still believes in Miquella above that. The age of compassion does not strip away all free-will, but it is certainly manipulative. There's enough nuance to argue good and bad. As for Mohg? Compare him to everyone else who was charmed, including Ansbach. That alone should tell you that Mohg was almost completely himself because nobody else acts even a 10th as crazy as him. It steals agency from his character to blame his psychopathy on Miquella, when his motivations and background already perfectly explain his condition. Same thing with Malenia. She was there to defeat Radahn for the vow. That doesn't mean Rot was originally part of the plan. It was a desperate maneuver because she couldn't win otherwise (and she still didn't get the job done)

For all the talk about the lore being bad, I find quite a bit of it is people ironically choosing to disregard the will of everyone involved. Miquella can't even have accounted for Mohg especially.

This game is a lot bigger than I thought... didn't think Fromsoft would put so much fucking content.

Also there is no need to have such big empty fields.
In base game only the bosses are fun but can be ultra cheesed with summons.

The bosses are fucking insane too.

I thought the meme is simply about how From always does the same song and dance halfway through a bossfight. Like wasn’t the original meme a tweet from another studio dev?

It's as >>484357018 said earlier a LOT of people don't actually play or pay attention to the game. They read some out of context item descriptions on fextralife at best. At worst they just regurgitate some popular reddit or loretuber theory. That's the main thing. It's why I like this place, people make memes and jokes here, and while there's still retards here a higher percentage of /erg/ actually plays the game and have at least seen the bosses/areas they're talking about before talking about them. Item descriptions are part of it sure, but actually seeing there ingame taking in the atmosphere music and environmental storytelling is another and can completely change the descriptions or reveal what they ACTUALLY mean. Idk if you remember bit when leaks came out and when every description for items released people were wondering what the "golden braid" description meant and who "grandmother" was but now we know from going to her village. Things like that can't be understood through just reading item descriptions.

Okay after over 2 hours of attempting it I just give up for the day. I'm going to check back with what shit I have and make a new gameplan. It feels like my STR/FTH build isn't cutting it so I feel concerned about possibly needing to just respec into an ARC build or something for the bleed strat. I've tried using lighting perfume but I lack a lot of the talismans and some incants that people seem to recommend for it and I'm simply not skilled enough yet to consistently dodge 2nd phase Radahn's bullshit to use Rolling Sparks enough times.

At the very least I need to pick out a good greatshield, the Brass Shield has been a big help defensively but isn't really enough. And if I want to do the shield + poke strat I do have a Messmer Soldier's Spear that I can infuse with bleed. I also know about Impenetrable Thorns but I think I need to rebuild for way more ARC to have good enough build up.

Now could I beat Radahn fair and square using my STR/FTH build without cheesing? Sure. If I can dodge, block and deal damage then in theory I can do that without practice. But I feel extremely impatient with this game's design (My gametime on this save is over 80 hours as is from replaying the entire game a week or two ahead of release then doing the whole DLC) and Radahn is just the shit cherry on top.

I have to say, if this is a sign of future Fromsoft boss design I might not be buying their games on release. Maybe on sale. I might just go back to my AC6 playthrough or replay Sekiro.

Thats something I'd like to point out too, a lot of people even in the base game, have positive opinions of miquella even without being charmed because, outside of the now dead godwyn and omen morgott, he was objectively the least retarded/insane/war crazed demigod around. People threw themselves under his banner because they believed in his vision, malenia is a prime example of this, its clear she's not brainwashed. Is her mind a little fucked by the rot? Undoubtedly. But she has a reason beyond bewitchment to follow miquella, he's her twin, one of the few who showed compassion from her, and his ascension may cure her of the rot. All reasons she would be so loyal without needing to be charmed. And for mohg its pretty clear he was crazy from the start. He had the blood cult and everything. His creepiness towards miquella was entirely his doing, but it just focused his obsession of a dynasty around him. It didn't start it. The whole mentioning of love by varre is almost certainly miquella as well. Miquella just perverted an already insane blood cult, but one, at least judging by ansbach that was slightly more honorable beforehand. While I do believe miquella made mohg crazier the guy was already batshit he wasn't this noble hero like his brother. If he hadn't been bewitched by miquella its likely he intended for his mother to be his consort as ranni was mia and larping as renna at the time and malenia was rotted out and dangerous

Time to use your summons
>>
>>484366970
I meant including all cheese shit like greatshields/bleed builds or OP weapons like Moonveil and Blasphemous blade. Sekiro has a steeper learning curve but it's the easiest game once you're over it, pretty sure Radahn took me more tries than Sword Saint Isshin did. Depends on what kind of player you are I guess. If we're talking just playing the game using every tool at your disposal than ER/SOTE are obviously much easier than Sekiro since you can just skip engaging with the bosses at all

>>484365475
>That alone should tell you that Mohg was almost completely himself because nobody else acts even a 10th as crazy as him.

That's the funniest part. Miquella's brainwashing makes you less volatile. So if anything, it should have made Mohg less crazy, not more. I'm amused by the idea that Mohg would be even more unhinged if he never met Miquella.

Why talk about the base game? This is the same even in the DLC. People conveniently ignore that despite the charm breaking, the majority of the NPCs still believe in Miquella's vision and promise. Hornsent said it himself. The charm was irrelevant.

I talk about the base game because it reinforces what you said about the dlc. Not only that but many like to treat the dlc as a complete retcon, at least from what I see here and on twitter, but plenty is supported by the base game as well. Like, again, people following miquella charm or not. He has problems, but he's still by far the least bad demigod, I'd argue he, morgott, and godwyn were the most morally "good" demigods.

I've always kinda interpreted god miquella as a being driven by obsession and ambition and that's what made him a shitty God. I also kinda viewed it as, in his dying moments the essence of st trina and all else he abandoned of himself came back to him, dying with him. Which is why he lovingly caresses radahn in their death animation.

I like to think that in his death his final thoughts were of the time he, malenia, radahn(and maybe godwyn) spent together when he was growing up

I knew something was odd about that. The boss took two attempts but the first one was the boss forcibly aborting my first try & no heal attempt with a beam that I quite literally had no clue how to dodge into.
The second attempt I dodged at the literal last second at light rolling and still got hit.

I'll ignore Gaius and Radahn since it's obvious they just added some random shit to make him relevant, but no. Loretta always belonged to the Carians. Being the one who protected the Carian Manor.
Going by the village of the Albinaurics + Temple Quarter (Icerind Hatchet being a Castle Sol gift, Miquella's lilies + dead Albinauric Archer), it's very likely Miquella was responsible for defending them in those areas. (Would explain Malenia's southward march sword monument in Liurnia). Which is why Loretta decided that Miquella's Haligtree is/was the best option for them.
Both his and Rennala's absence made the entire area turn into an albinauric hunting ground, though.

I actually like how the tarnished is portrayed. You aren't good, you aren't evil. You're a man on a mission, and that mission is to kill everything in your path and stand before the elden ring, what you do after is up to you, mend it, give it to ranni, burn everything in frenzy, doesn't matter, your ultimate goal is to reach that point and you'll kill anyone who even potentially offers a threat to you getting there. It's why you kill miquella, can't stand before the elden ring if he and radahn do before you. It's why you kill godfrey, only you can stand before the elden ring, no one else. It reminds me a bit of the old jokes in ds1 if anyone remembers when people would say, "the chosen undead is actually the bad guy" when in truth the only really bad thing the chosen undead did was unintentionally start the demons' extinction by killing the bed of chaos, which we see culminate in ds3 with the old demon king. In elden ring our character is much more of a fucking asshole. And I love it. The best thing is the reason we're given as to why so many enemies who seem sane, attack us, they're afraid of us, what we could do, what we might do, and that fear leads to their own deaths. And yet, the few that don't attack us, quickly grow to like us, seriously, the tarnished is like the most liked protag in their respective universe fromsoft has made. It's funny

Messmer
Every single attack including each step of his attack chains have noticeable tells and reasonable evade directions.

Shield builds have to use actual positioning to avoid getting hit phase 1, dodge builds have to have good reaction. A solid boss with nearly no bullshit that you can intuitively learn how to approach and dodge through pattern recognition alone.

Basically Dragon's Dogma 1 for better and for inconvenience sake. I actually enjoyed my time with it and want to actually finish it but the game isn't fun to explore unfortunately. I mean sure it has awesome non-scripted moments as if you were a CoD kiddie and played your first Battlefield match. Ya know nutting at how much shit is actually going on free form and whatnot. Although that are unfortunately very far and few between nothing space of reskinned enemies that take slightly too long to fight but aren't challenging. To put it bluntly the game is exactly what I asked for. Although like Dragon's Dogma 1 it is the sort of fetish you nut hard for but only fap to maybe every season or so. I hope that sort of gives you a perspective to the game.

>>484370453
I liked it. He stops twirling so dodge direction is no longer ambiguous and all of the snake attacks end with him just holding his arms towards you, outstretched ready to take 2 jumping attacks.

Also easier to heal due to his attacks having reasonable spaces that exceed the 4s window you need to quaff an estus and actually still be able to get the fuck out of the way.
>>
>>484370214
Definitely messmer. He's like Rellana but the range of his attacks looks a lot more natural (and therefore fair) given his weapon.

Elden Ring is easy mode compared to the Souls games. The only thing easier in them is that the bosses have way fewer "roll catches." In fact, they only began showing up in Dark Souls 3.

nta but unless you have a monster rig (which I do) you're going to get noticeable drops anywhere near the city. And also some caves if you have ray tracing on (which I do)

>>484370194
It's a fun game in small doses absolutely fucking annihilated by it's lack of enemy variety and static enemy spawns. The non-scripted shit and the actual "sense of adventure" are phenomenal but do to enemies always only ever occupying the exact same space you will eventually tire of going from point A to point B.

I still really enjoyed my (first) playthrough. But it needs help that only a DLC with an expanded enemy roster can provide.

My super computer had to punch it at 30 fps with some meme settings to fudge the graphics in a really weird way I don't really understand. Pure optimization which sucks.
>>484370716
Not particularly. To reference other games it is the Two Worlds to Oblivion. It certainly if different of an experience but people wanted more. Dragon's Dogma 1 was basically 80% trimmed out concepts and Dragon's Dogma 2 is that same game but with maybe 20% of the trimmed out shit added into it now. The game they marketed and presented really was swinging higher than they delivered. If anyone plays EDF and likes it but understands that its quality is EDF they'll get what I mean when I say it is basically selling AAA Blockbuster smash hit game but it is actually EDF and people get fucking mad because they didn't expect it. It is genuinely a great game but you have to accept that it is filled with boring sections which is 80% of the travel and the fast travel system is interesting like DD1 but interesting doesn't make up for a 20 minute walk to turn in a fetch quest.

I agree, but they didn't have the same energy in the past, especially almost a decade and a half ago when things could've been prevented, or in any of capcoms previous games. That's where the problem lies. They pick and choose when to complain they're not consistent.

2. So like Aldrich, Malenia, Elden Beast, Midir, Dragons in general... so now that's a problem?
3. True, Greatshields should be nerfed, bleed should be nerfed too
4. Not an issue, bosses should have highly telegraphed one shots
5. Completely false
6. 7. Never had this issue, not even in your own webm
8. Not a bad thing at all
9. Not an issue and is a constant element of PVE boss fights.

The whole "Promised" thing was part of the flimsy contrivance to support Radahn being there at all.
Because when you see Radahn you ask "why Radahn" and the answer they tried to give is "because they made a promise when they were kids"
They pulled a fucking romcom trope, that's how you know it was half-assed.

All skibidi fragments is basically 2x damage and defense. As long as you have normal vig you'll survive just fine, but your damage will suck super ass because you're up against bosses with 50k hp.
>>
lightning perfume bottle actually has really outsized normal damage even if you're using it fairly ie no rolling sparks, no mass buffs
the fact you can have a weapon with pure lightning damage, free power stance that double hits on each attack, and gets a free +20% damage talisman slot, is just ridiculous when you look at its 589 damage with 80/80 (or even 504 at 50/50)
absolutely gigantic hitboxes that linger for a second and cover a big distance, so its got better coverage than most long weapons and can catch rolls or dodging enemies in pvp/pve just because of its lingering arc, and an extra hitbox trailing on the ground in its running r2, and the charged r2 is like shooting an ak-47 in a small room


You'd feel good getting 600+ ar in power stanced swords like scavengers curved sword, but not only is lightning damage mitigated less than physical in almost every case, but that 589 on perfume can get +20% talisman, +20% flask, +12% scorpion which makes it like a 950 AR weapon by comparison. In both hands. And then you still get the same mass of other potential AR benefits like crusade talisman, bloodsapping, golden vow, etc

10. That's up to the player, based on what do you claim this. Trading is a strategy, just like weapon blocking
11. It doesn't, Radahn consistently closes the gaps anyway ubless he is doing Light of Miquella, in which case you do want to GTFO anyway
12. 3 parries to crit is good. Deflect tear should be removed entirely and doesn't fit Souls gameplay, yes
13. 14. Performance should and will be fixed
15. I disagree, and I'm pretty sure that animation is from the base game
16. The only audio cues I remember from Gael are his rings of light. The telegraphing is always done visually in both fight

>2. Radahn's love of long anime combos can lead to periods of 20 or more seconds where he is only vulnerable for a tiny amount of time
You are supposed to not play the game. Like how empty areas are actually kino because you're supposed to just watch.

On replay, what parts of the DLC will (you) be skipping?
I think I will be skipping all of the mini-dungeons (catacombs, caves, mines) that don't lead to another area of the map. I don't remember getting anything meaningful from them, all my equipment upgrades came from either legacy dungeons or quests

>DC Seal scaling got buffed when SOTE dropped
30/45 FTH/ARC gives 320 scaling
Are there any comparable seals/staffs or is this thing now the undisputed GOAT for NG?
Prince of Death Staff got buffed but it still does pitiful scaling unless you're at NG+ stats of 80/80

Radahn has complete invulnerability during the entirety of his light-clone attacks which can pop right after his normal swing combos.

Most of my Blue and Red stuff generally ends in people getting one shot since they were mostly when the game was new. No one really levelled vigor.
>>
>>484372382
Don't you see? Radahn also was the one who stopped the stars for ranni and he also taught blaidd how to fight and gave ranni the renna doll he also is messmer's and melina's dad and he's the gloam eyed queen.

Not really.
The DLC gives you access to pretty much every tier of stone, as well as quite a few ancient dragon ones.
Heck pretty sure 6 7 and 8 smithing stones are farmable fairly easily.

Bayle is such a shit fight, anybody who thinks this is better than Midir is fucking dumb. He looks dumb as hell too.

Deflecting Tear feels like shit and I'm tired of people pretending otherwise. Its a crude inplementation that doesn't hold a candle to games that were designed with it in mind, i.e. Sekiro and Lies of P.

The DLC bosses were mechanically bad and far more style over substance.
>Padded out combo chains
>Really weirdly timed attacks intentionally trying to trip you up, which isn't bad in itself but seems to be far more common than it should be in the attack designs.
>Every boss outside the fingers has a cross arena move that they use the moment the fight starts that is also a fuck off attack that kiss unless you perfect dodge run for your life or goat tank.
>Terrible attacks that seem to attack your fucking camera and kill it before you.
>Funnels the builds into playing a massive meat man of iron and ram horns or dodge god with very little in between
I'd rather the boss be a god gamer and try to parry my ass and break distance to heal. Fuck really something more interesting than what is slowly turning into a bland dps race. The dmg output of the bosses were OP but that gets a pass for me because the DLC tried to something different with the secondary leveling which was pretty neat and I hope gets improved upon. Rellana might have been the most 'fair' boss but that may be biase from the fact she doesn't have a 16 attack fucking combo and the camera doesn't shit itself fighting her because she doesn't spastically leap all around the arena.

As a Goldman I find it upsetting my no-skibidi hosts die before I step outside of the fog wall
Which is wicked fast

>>484372891
you have enough time for an impaling thrust after almost every attack, and most of his attacks have openings even though it doesn't look like it

>>484372802
She was ignoring my charged Knight's Lighting Spear for some reason. Just stood there and took it repeatedly. Continual discharges of electricity in the water from the charged spears dealing way more damage as a result.

Probably. Either way I noticed her AI correct itself when her second phase started but by that point she was stance broken and then too heavily damaged to make a comeback.
>>
>>484372491
that just looks like it missed and went inbetween the legs desu

Imo sunflower is a pretty og-style boss, possibly it and finger mother are the two most classical feeling bosses

Bayle has so much time between attacks that you can unironically use dragon communion invocations on him.

Why does Fagahn get two of the same exact sword but with different Ashes as Remembrance weapons ?

Its like they couldn't decide which one they wanted and just put them both in. Feels really weird. Because they are both paired weapons so they cant be used together.


The ashes are pretty good. With minimal faith they do a lot of damage.

>Its like they couldn't decide which one they wanted and just put them both in. Feels really weird. Because they are both paired weapons so they cant be used together.
They can though, you can go around swapping 4 swords by just changing hands
>The ashes are pretty good. With minimal faith they do a lot of damage.
and they would be op in the same exact weapon
>>
>>484357575
Look you don't have to convince me
But there are people who would still call the fight good even if every single attack was a one hit instant kill that required 15 sequences of 1 frame window no buffer dodges in completely different directions with no visual way to tell until the attack has already landed.

That's the kind of brain rot you're dealing with
>>
>>484373329
and nobody will still use them just as normal radahn swords because the moveset is complete dog ass
normal ones at least have a massive aoe very useful for clearing areas of garbage
>>
Bros what's the point of thrusting shields?
They feel like unusable jank unless I'm two handing them, but at that point it's basically just a normal shield you can poke with.
If only they had made the l2 a normal block instead of a quick attack string, what a missed opportunity for casters.

Yes it did, Genichiro was a messworse than Radahn actually, because the lag occurred even just by staying on the rooftop
>>
At Radahn now so here are my Remembrance boss rankings:
>0 - Gank Squad
Holy fuck that was fucking amazing. The real final boss.
>1 - Midra
By far the coolest boss. Learning to exploit his openings to stance break him was fun and his moves are very fair. Wish he had more lore though.
>2 - Messmer
Poster boy. Kino lore. Kino presentation. Cool cutscenes. Godly magic. End of the best legacy dungeon in the DLC. Just about perfect. Except he breaks the camera with his spastic attacks.
>3 - Metyr
Cool as fuck lore. Good build up. Great arena. Awesome design. Kino attacks. Entire questline. Clear exploitable weaknesses (The stage is water. Use lightning.)
>4 - Bayle
Igon. 'Nuff said.
>5 - Scadutree Avatar
Really like its design. Obvious weakness to fire. Fair combos that lead to openings that are easy to exploit. 3-phase twist was fun. Nice mechanics overall. Shame it leads to nothing, like Gayass, and has lacking lore.
>6 - Rellana
I fought her late in the game so she was very easy for my build. Even so she has a kickass design, cool abilities and interesting lore. Shame she has no dialogue, cutscenes or build up.
>7 - Romina
Cool boss and character design. Sensible mechanics. Just felt very forgettable to me because she doesn't really say or do anything else.
>8 - Putrescence Knight
Way better than those below it. Actually decent boss. Reasonable attack patterns. Has annoying gimmick with the blue flames but otherwise pretty fair. FTH builds have plenty of options with Holy and I believe the battlefield conducts electricity from charged Lightning Spears.
>9 - Dancing Lion
Yes yes very cool. Also broke my camera, has annoying special effects overload and was just generally unpleasant to face.
>10 - Commander Gayass
He's broken. Shit to fight 'fairly' and piss easy to cheese. And he leads to nothing. Cool concept but just very poorly coded and thought out.
>11 - Radahn and Miquella
Overtuned overly flashy dogshit with bloated damage and health values.
>>
>heal from afar casts faster than other healing spells, costs the same as great heal, heals the same as lord's heal, destroys revenants at any range

Neither of them gave me any camera issues. Putrescent not at all. Metyr I mostly fought at a range with Knight's Lightning Spear spam and focused on avoiding her attacks.
>>
>>484376182
Anon, I said I have it on. That clearly means I'm mentally retarded and impossible to reason with.

So until now I've breezed through the DLC buttfucking everything with a pulse even a couple of bosses. But I need your help now.

I'm struggling against Rellana Twinkmoon Knight or something. I'm a straight INT spellcaster, I make teeny tiny boops with close-range attacks and I need big ranged damage.
What do you advise?

Nevermind. Won after 20 attempts.

Done with help of my brother and summoning Leda.
Brother had bleed and frost katanas with Bloodhound Step, no shield.

As a spellcaster, I sped up the frostbite using the Zamor storm. Once the boss was frostbit, I stayed afar while my two comrades took the aggro, and spammed Night Comet with Renalla's Dildo in the main hand and the Staff of Loss in the offhand to boost night damage.
Then it was just a matter of dodging the absurd amount of OP spells and movesets, gittin gud. My brother did enormous bleed damage a couple of times, I couldn't have done it alone even with spirit ashes, even with the mimic.

you're supposed to use the spiritspring retard-kun
>>
>been putting my sign down via effigies for the last two days
>99% radahn or malenia
>malenia has slightly more build variety but its mostly still bleed/frost spammers with katanas
>host still typically eats shit by being greedy
>radahn has virtually zero build variety with all of them using the "I didn't beat the game because radahn mindbroke me" build
>they still manage to somehow lose regardless
This is depressing.
>>
>>484388097
what the fuck
i did like 3 playthroughs and it always worked easily with the stones on the wall god damn it
but no matter which stone i used this time it didnt work
anyway spiritspring worked
