What's the point of spliting the thread if they're just going to post the discord anyway?
gg balancersWhat a crazy boss
>>550601660SS didnt savegg
>550601512embarrassing attempt btw
>>550601660>>550601760ggs
ongbal just called ed balancers worse than ed marisits so fucking over for ishizaki
>>550601760
Thinking of picking up duchess. Whats her best build?
>>550601512because now its not in the op
A sleep weakness you can't inflict because they die before it happens. So its not actually a weakness. Their weakness is your most damaging weapon. Mikey you've done it again!
>>550602116Fth Respec with Affinity +6. You can take Dormant Staves if you want but her Daggers are adequate as a drop pool given Blade of Calling, Black Knife and Glintstone Kris are all very very strong affinity damage AoW havers. Some people take Balancers Relics. I prefer ED Gnoster for the FP.
>>550602269Don't tell a new player to use melee duchess in depths you stupid fuck
who let the aff duchess shitposter out of containment
The ED balancers being basically a whole different fight is so funny, classic from underselling the shit they do
>>550602397I didn't suggest a melee build retard. What a retarded thing to say. I even suggested they use Gnoster so they can cast more.
It's so stupidly evident that ED Balancer worm mode is a recycled Godwyn fight we were meant to get in SOTEFuckin IMAGINEFUCK!!!!!!!! FUCK YOU RADAHN!!!!!!!
>>550602526I still remember Miyazaki saying that Elden Ring took 30 hours to complete and that SOTE was just a small Limgrave sized area, no big deal. Meanwhile it was like 4 Limgraves stacked on top of each other. What a troll
>>550602557They'll still have to melee until day 2 where they only have a chance to get one of the purple daggers and they will die alot because they're new and retarded like youMagic duchess is simply safer
>>550602780>Meanwhile it was like 4 Limgraves stacked on top of each other.you dont believe this
>>550602116don't listen to affinity duchess retard, the most consistent is magic with dormant staves
what does this mean
>>550602862uh oh someone's coping because miquella was gay
>>550602780He was referring to actual gameplay, not the countless extra hours of horse riding, collecting worthless crafting items, empty maps, and palette swap "bosses"
>>550602972he is not gay. his lover is trina.
yeah this fight is the worst putrid dogshit fromsoft has ever shit out, i will always dodge balancers in DoN queue from now on
>>550602958punishment for still having gaol slotted.
>>550602835>They'll still have to melee until day 2No, they can do huge damage even with a shitty finger seal so long as it has a solid spell. >Magic duchess is simply saferMagic duchess literally gets less opportunities to use strong safe things like spells and AoWs. Literally one of my most common day 1 starts is like this>Get go to a Cathedral/Castle>I grab the seals/staves>Spam the damage seal to kill the boss>Get a smithing stone from the next merchant>That spell is now good enough for all of day 1>Replace it later one when something better drops. You're a retard for thinking Aff+6 Duchess is stuck with melee EVER. Sometimes I even get a lucky Wraith Bell early on and can ding the donger for solid damage too. >>550602937You guys don't offer reasonable rebuttals, just strawmen like>Aff Duchess has to melee on day 1or>Black Knife sucksor whatever else.
Wyldbros how are we building now?

>druggie anon getting uppity about FTHAFF duchess againAFF duchess is better now with the new double balancers relic since you can make even generic AoWs do serviceable damage but this guy doesn't even run 1 of them kek what a fucking retardand saying you can use a seal all of day 1 without ever needing to melee? what a delusional retard
>>550603630Why have they not nerfed dark bead i mean shattering crystal
Are we still running gaols?
So you can't fit both the Balancers relics and her last remembrance relic on Undertaker huh? What should I use with her?
>>550603828yesgreat hollow is a free win anyway, it doesn't matter if you have a dead line while playing it
>>550603828No, it's double balancer + invaders relics now
>>550603557terr
>>550603828double balancers + invaders on anyone not castingspell school stacking on anyone castinggaol routing is dead
Balancer relics are a midwit trap
Everyone's going crazy for the balancers relic and glass neklace, meanwhile DLC introduced a character perfect for one of my favorite playstyles so I just did an Undertaker run with:>dark night of the wise>dark night of the champion>leather caseand I found >godskin swaddling cloth>two consecutive attacks bubbles>order's bladeand a holy twinblade. FUN.Tho having ornamental ss would have been even more FUN.
>>550603738>and saying you can use a seal all of day 1 without ever needing to melee?You can melee the trash mobs but for bosses you'll be able to usually just spam until your FP bar is drained unless your team is insanely bad and don't carry their end of the DPS. Most times on day 1 my FP bar is long enough to let me just spam PoI and field bosses to death and maybe on night 1 I have to do some little successive attacks strings to recoup a bit of FP if I didn't buy my starlight or find any in the field. >the new double balancers relic since you can make even generic AoWs do serviceable damage+70% damage is not "servicable, it's fucking insane. I'm fine with just having 30% but having it apply universally to all my things. It's fucking great on Ciper Pata/Coded Sword for example, both are 100% holy so they hit for 30% more even on criticals. Balancers are strong of course but again they're overspecialized. If I settle on using a kickass red/purple spell, now two of my relics are basically useless. The whole point of Fth Affinity Duchess is being a recluse who doesn't suck at melee and who can use any drops at optimized/buffed levels unless they're STRpilled.
ggs animus
that was close
gg 3bugs well clutched, to think I've always thought this was easy but that was because I was playing with Duchess dodges and I have nfi how to dodge any of this shit with normal character rolls lmao
>>550604204No shit, you can tell that because the people who shit on the best Duchess build think they're mega good.
>>550604374>>550604497
Red or Blu balancer relic? I can only fit in one.
>>550603206>just get lucky with a good early spell broA magic stacking duchess outperforms your dogshit affinity damage with just glintstone pebble, take your delusional cope somewhere else
>>550604204for me it's night of dregs
double balancer sucks on executor, triple status is better
>>550603134Indians actually think this
>>550604618Scholar already statusmogs executor. Pick a different niche.
>>550604572The last line on both of them is a meme, it doesn't really matter. The red one's random deflect is more likely to have a meaningful impact in a game though.
>>550604574>just get lucky with a good early spell broBut Almost any spell that deals damage is good when you're Fth Affinity Duchess. >A magic stacking duchess outperforms your dogshit affinity damage with just glintstone pebble,By about 7.5%. The gap is basically one white passive. > take your delusional cope somewhere elseYou're the one coping about having a 7.5% stronger pebble as if that's a gamechanger. Meanwhile I'm dropping Day 1 morning spells that chunk the bosses for 10-15%
>mained Duchess>just realized I never learned to dodge some attacks because of her i-frames
NIHILNIHILNIHIL
>>550604935this but with suncatcher deflecting instead
>>550604204i mean, it's a nice gimmick to build around it's pretty strong
>>550605056What's wrong with you?
>>550601892ongbal is such a whiny faggot. I unsubbed
>>550604370>unless your team is insanely badif you have to blame your team then your build isn't good.and i understand it's hard to understand things with your drug addled mind but when i said "make even generic AoWs do serviceable damage" i was referring to generic AoWs aka sacred blade, flame of the redmanes etc.i take that comment back btw since sacred blade on a purple does 30% of the damage that blade of calling does meaning if you miss you're still fucked meaning that even with the new skill buffs FTH AFF duchess is still trash since it's not consistent
>>550605056Just heal once in between and you'll be fine
>>550605094It's wylder/scholar propaganda to keep executors down at their level, (s)he knows it's good
>>550604497That’s a hot pic >>550603378Lovely terr post>>550602972He’s not?
>>550605227>if you have to blame your team then your build isn't good.Anon, if I'm out of FP for about 15 seconds while we finish off the fucking Leonine Misbegotten, my build isn't bad. Builds aren't bad if they aren't hard carries 24/7/365> i was referring to generic AoWs aka sacred blade, flame of the redmanes etc.Those all do good damage already if you're using Affinity. Double Balancer is 40%. Affinity +6 is 30%> FTH AFF duchess is still trash since it's not consistentIT's a build that is optimized and buffs something like 70% of possible weapon drops and 90% of Spells. It's insanely consistent. You're a midwit lol
>>550605262>>550605128I broke the stupid tridents and stood where is was like I’m supposed to, and I still got BTFO
>>550605076>tfw consistently dogshit at dodging ed caligo because I was on an executor kick when it came out
>>550605450Shut up terrjeet
>>550604618Triple status was always a trap. He never really needs anything other than rivers which he always gets like 5 a run
>>550605056This is the true face of people who post anime girl reaction pictures and/or avatarfags
>>550602958That's a good question. What is the relic you're not showing us?
are resistances of period harmonia the same as vanilla?
>>550605921All anime posters are real girls and they're cute
>>550605483>Leonine Misbegottendamn bro you're owning if your build can destroy such hard bosses day 1against anything with actual HP (red dog, red revenant, normal tree sentinal) that you can still fight day 1 you will run out of FP a third of the way in. sure you did your designated damage of the bosses health bar but you're now completely useless>Those all do good damage alreadyif you want to test out the damage difference for yourself, grab a miquellan knight's sword in the training ground and compare the damage to BoCi wish an ED dogs game with only sacred blade upon ye fool
>>550606345t. commits self-harm
>>550606303Another balancer relic. Only those two had the question marks so I didn't screencap it.
>>550602958The red marks means you're bugged and the relics are disabled, killing yourself tends to turn them back on
>>550606345keep telling yourself that
Does the bear east i-frames or what?
the sote weapons....
>>550606665I was spamming ultimate button like mad when I realised what the bear about to do. too bad it too late.
>>550606614good thing he indicated left and right, I wouldn't figure it out otherwise

HOLY SHIT! Shifty you're dogshit!
>>550606764whatever happened there...
>>550606932trvke
So what's the strat for ED Balancers besides just killing them and not getting hit? What affinity should you bring? Has anyone figured out what popping the pustules on the giant worm does to it?
>>550606871Names?
>>550606852Unironically not funny. Guy clearly has issues and was probably groomed/lovebombed by predators who want him to ruin his life the way they ruined theirs. More sharing of their misery.
>>550606764adding curseblades without the curseblade cirque is a war crime
>>550607142Oniwa Gyoubu Masataka
>>550606932>>550607152uhh oh troon melty
So how do we pull Night Invaders in these new POI and new map? We went in pretty deep and no idea where they even spawn.
>>550606385>that you can still fight day 1 you will run out of FP a third of the way inGood thing I'm Duchess and have scammer tier i-frames and a great low cost low commitment dagger moveset that also regenerates my FP when I complete my successives reqs. God forbid I run into melee and get a bubble and some FP so I can cast again. >if you want to test out the damage difference for yourself, grab a miquellan knight's sword in the training ground and compare the damage to BoCYou aren't making an argument. My build is +30% with Sacred Blade>i wish an ED dogs game with only sacred blade upon ye foolThat would be brutal but I haven't ever had that much misfortune and even if I did I wouldn't be sitting there thinking "OH GOD I SHOULD'VE MAGICMAXXED NO!!!!!"
>>550607152That is true.
>>550607126>Has anyone figured out what popping the pustules on the giant worm does to it?Pop enough of them and she cancels the massive flower blood explosion at the end and returns to phase 1
>>550606614Do you ever talk about anything else or are you just fully obsessed
>>550607321You clear the entire POI like honest men. No more cheating by drawing the invader out of the camp.
>>550607370>My buildshow relics pls
>>550607152Exactly.>>550607302Are you inadvertently retarded, or are you being intentionally retarded saying the second post you linked is a troon meltdown ?
>>550607484What if we killed the boss and we still don't see invaders. They are here, somewhere.
>>550607302>>550607468now post this without crying
>>550604678>level 15 scholar with dex/end relic arcane: 30>level 15 executor with dex/arc relic arcane: 40Scholar does have way easier access to rot thanks to antspur being in his loot pool though.
>>550607468I do actually, most of the time I don't even post much, just talk about the game and post gg but I found an easy opportunity to dunk on trannoids and I was bored.
>>550607727So you just had that screenshot in your vault? You just have that stuff ready just in case or what, how much time a day do you spend curating that folder? Are you happy with that amount of time?
the only explanation for aff duchess poster's behavior is that he was raped when he was little
>>550607670Don't use the retarded arcane reducing relic if you're going to use statuses. Hope that helps.
>>550606614Why is it always anime related bro
I suspect everyone switching their Maris or utility relics for double birds is why runs have felt more dogshit than usual. I know the dlc stuff is tough but I’ve never seen as many 3 bars to base game stuff since launch week. Tdlr; no one cares if you’re doing 500 more damage a skill
>want to play more wild or dutch or raiden>game gives me sekiro and iron man gemmies
>>550607321>new POIThe swamp is kinda fucked up. There are 2 spawns, either the invaders is up top in the swamp or its down below near the boss.If you're playing randoms do this day 2, if erg well you're gamers so go in and kill the invader, the invader will be surrounded by adds if it's down below so be careful, after its dead run past boss and leave the poi.The swamp only has 2 invader so don't waste time on it day 1 I'd say.If its the forge this one's easy like the regular poi. There are 2 spawn locations, one at the entrance that lets you kite them outside and another that's deeper in up the road but the deeper area has a massive open space and most version of the poi either have 1 mediorce enemy or 2 small enemies.There are 2 invaders in forges you want to do them.>New mapIf the invader is the ruins on the far left upper map then just jump to the top of the ruins both invaders spawn there.No idea where the invader spawns in the underground church, could try exploring and learning in solo mode but personally I'd just skip that one and only do invaders on the new map if it's the far left ruins.
>>550607370>You aren't making an argument. My build is +30% with Sacred Bladehere's your argument; your sacred blade on a purple weapon does 400 damage in testing ground with 2x balancer 1x heolster 3x aff+2which is less than a duchess with 0 (ZERO) relics using blade of calling (500 damage)
>>550607636It's Affinity +6 with a FTH Respec. I also run Dark Bug and Ninvaders and the +10% Restage damage. The details don't matter. Every Aff +2 is 10% damage with every affinity. +6 is +30%
>>550606614Look I'm against trannies but when you're that deformed you might as well do whatever you want with your life. I'm not gonna tell him to live his piece of shit truecel existence. Yeah take hrt I don't care man it's over for you anyway.
>>550607943>>550607321>The swamp only has 2 invaderMistake I meant to type swamp only has 1 invader
>>550608063Rare fair-minded tranny hater post
>>550607908when I hit a boss and do double digits % worth of hp in a single ash / ash combo, thats for me and not for you.Dont ever try to take that from me.
>>550607943If you’re walking towards the church’s front, the invader is in the stairway to the basement on the right, it comes up to church if you spend a while fighting tree pope
>>550606665please do not run ahead like that you arent making things faster you're just putting your teammates at risk
Wow. Great start to the thread fellas. New content in the game and the subject of discussion? Trannies. Never change, /erg/.

>>550608305Thanks
shifty lowkey kinda dogshit in manta's game
>>550608438But I dont die in one hit and Im doing stagger and most important, I'm playing the game for fun and I hope its mutual and you can do whatever the fuck you want within reason.

>>550608470>I noticed you didn't launch into denial and conspiracism, that must mean you're a tranny in denialWeird cope. But I guess if you've decided that everyone who isnt sucking you off is secretly seething, that would lead to a feedback loop that could make someone as unhealthy as you are. Literally more time than a full time job obsessing over trannies, get a life.
>>550608596oh fuck manta is streaming? why does she never announce her streams reeeee
>>550607875Don't try to do executor's job with another character without having good dex. Hope that helps.

>>550608732uh oh troon melty (but for real this time)
>vtuber>female
>>550609081That's because you're too sad all the time. All the transgirls here have found erg boyfriends because they're fun. If they can do it while having a penis, you can do it doubly so.
>Start expo>Get to first ring>Undercaker goes to middle castle, dies, leaveswell that was a fun run, we made it to foreskin duo night 2
>>550609312Yeah, like that, that's what I was saying. You have to be either vehemently obsessed with being on your side, and everyone else who isn't is a tranny having a melty. No one else can exist. Thinking spending 50 hours a week is an unhealthy amount is a totally unreasonable position that only trannys would post. It's psychotic, go outside.

>>550609534You're the one getting ragebaited into defending trannies from being insulted in your imagination you obsessed troon, you go outside

>>550609992You keep proving me right. Insulting you isnt defending trannies, you're just so deep in your psychotic obsession that everyone has to be either sucking you off or a tranny. Can you not see what you've become?

I hope from knows they have a genius in their mist with whoever is the nightlord director in nightreign. ED Balancers is so visually impressive and stuff like base caligo, heolstor, ED fulghor and ED Maris unironically artistically far surpass anything else I’ve seen a game desu. Like the jump in visuals from ER to NR is massive.
>>550610258I believe that's one you get for beating any ED with Scholar or Undertaker
>>550610332>>550608668>>550608410>>550610491Lovely dhalit terrjeet posts
Good thing I went for a superior game for a superior experience and hotter women. Too bad I can't say the same for Trannyreign.
we would have been in trouble if that was ED, but i think we deserve it for no map debuffgg

>>550610897>>550610843GGs Lil Libra. Yall were brave to not pick up any of the LLTBT that I was dropping in case it was ED Libra. Also fuck that black flame monk poi. Every single corner had a monk or two around it just waiting for my no damage negation ass to walk around it or have my back to it.
>>550611148gg that was my first attemp, absolute kino
seeing the blood balancers, it would have been an interesting and better end to sote where miquella ends up joining the formless mother and backstabs everyone and his fight was similar to this.
Do you guys also have X and triangle (A and Y) inverted?

>>550611514Less likely to be targeted. If all 3 people have it for ED, you can fuck off across the map to fight Libra by himself while the condemned gangbang each other on the other side. Makes the fight a joke.
>>550611449we are not lolg
>>550611449Objective truth.
gg horseylove explosive fists
I'm aiming to have frost and bleed on my starting weapon as Scholar. Should I aim for Seppuku and Frost, or Hoarfrost and Blood Loss.
>>550611724Huh, didn't realize that thing is actually THAT useful there. I'll keep that in mind thnx
>>550611750I have never visited it but a vg thread for LoL sounds like the exact type of stuff you would be forced to read in Hell
>>550611807ggs
>>550611724Or do what I do and just like casually 3 tap each condemned with an r1 combo and then just fight Libra. Seriously the condemned are only hard if you ignore them like a retard, and let them group up and buff up. If you just put them down it's easy as piss. A banished knight is honestly harder to fight than condemned and no one here is scared of those so just nut up and kill them.
>>550611969it used to be kino....
GG DDKI think ulting at center of that invader camp was a bad idea but that was first time I saw invaders there. Holy hell though how much damage does Halo scythe do, I didn't even had invader relic. >>550611807Also first time I saw balancers raid, so ty for coming to my rescue first.

>>550612234I have, thanks. Git gud.
>>550611823starting frost is better than starting bleed, but hoarfrost is a significantly better skill than either bleed optionstomping some wandering nobles to build your ult gauge can be the difference between getting to nuke a POI or not

>>550611449It was much worse before with people namedropping and posting about their gay shit desperately trying to hit on trannies like some Indian who snuck into a white girl party>>550611976It really depends on what combination of condemned the majority of the ranged ones that can one shot you are just cancer when they are being protected by the melee ones that chase you to the ends of the earth and can poiseblob through your attacks.
>>550611823blood blade seems to be the best for scholar
>>550611807ggs I'm still confused what to do during balancer raid.
>>550612390then clearly you didn't make it to depth 5 because you can't r1 the condemned to death at all, they'll either poise through it or you trade and lose most of your health
>>550612736Ignore everything and rush the bird woman and kill her before the adds swarm you.
Why are you guys gg posting multiple times to same post. How many of you were in the run?
>>550612736rush the balancer and hope some mobs help you

So is the plan for solo ED balancers just focus on aggression? Prioritize a fast kill during the split phase to chain the stuns as much as you can and then during the worm/fish phase killing it to end the phase early? In the split phase in particular, defense feels like a losing battle. Unlike a lot of other gank fights it really feels like the ED balancers all have no chill and will gladly dogpile you with 3+ of them if you don't kill fast enough
>>550613594She DIED
>>550613965what????? really?????????
>>550613817Yes. He's not that hard.

Asking again: Do DLC havers get to enjoy DLC Limveld in expeditions that aren't DLC Bosses? Can you get Great Hollow but have to fight Fulghor?
>>550614396you ain't fooling me buddy
>>550615065>>550615123I've only been here since Nightreign, what were her old pics like?
>>550615117>Can you get Great Hollow but have to fight Fulghor?Yes>DLC Limveld in expeditions that aren't DLC BossesAlso yes.
>>550614051Just beat it relatively easily by just running away and waiting out the worm
>>550615506Great. That's hype.
>>550613594She found her BWC and retired. Just be happy for her.>>550614396That’s why you save stuff as soon as you see it. Especially if it’s a litter catbox link because those are automatically set to delete after a while.
>>550614480what you don't want to spend 8 minutes chasing night riders while the circle spawns right on top of us versus the keeps dropping legendaries like candy?
>-800ouch
oops out of stamina to roll mb
>>550612907I have, thanks. "If you think it's easy you must not be on my level" isn't the winning comeback you think it is, I think its 3qsy because I'm better than you and you rely on less likely to cope. Pro tip, in d5 all enemies are harder, so the statement "banished knights are harder than condemned and no one is scared of them" is still equally true in every depth.
time to play, go d5

>>550617549I'm sorry you're illiterate and missed where I already said nobody was scared of banished knights, so you thought saying why you aren't scared of banished knights was some kind of comeback. Git gud.

>>550614586Oh good point I still need to figure out how to play him solo but he did seem like a perfect fit against both versions of balancers>>550615532I beat them already just that my win felt like a goddamn scramble despite still having most of my resources remaining. I know I can wait out the worm but it felt much more productive to just kill it if I can, in my case it felt like a better use of executor ult there to end it as early as I can rather than chance maybe getting shredded by the valks I fail to stagger lock
I sitll haven't managed to get past night 1 on the new bosses soloThe red bear, death knights and bat demons are way too hard
>>550617689you said they're harder than condemned, which means you struggle with them in some capacity. cope harder faggot
>>550618118The DLC is very specifically made with coop in mind, it's just not meant for solo. Even ONGBAL said he uses the boss arena mod to skip directly to the nightlord, because night 1/2 bosses are bullshit.

>>550630487They said they're focusing on integrating DLC stuff into the game, not that they're done explicitly. Yes, for now there is no news but that doesn't mean they're done for.
>>550630597I'm starting to feel concerned. I wasn't before.
is anyone here getting duskbloods?
>>550630597>>550630612Potentially. Fromsoft tend to just release DLC then support it for a bit then move on to their next project if their previous games are anything to go by.
>>550630487trust the plan>Q:现在的深夜模式中守护者和无赖的出场率很低,很多玩家看到这两个角色甚至会直接拔线。像是无赖的双特大跳劈也被削弱了,基于这些情况,制作组会做出什么改善或调整吗?>A:对于玩家在游玩过程中遇到的困难,我们也有一定的认知。我们也会在接下来的更新中尽量去改善。我们希望减少玩家没有发挥空间,只能放弃的状况,例如远程角色在近战层面不利之类的。我们会通过追加装备武器的方式来改善这点。
>>550630762Might get it for my kids.
>>550630597We should be concerned once they start doing stuff like "And thank YOU for playing!" with no new patches/content in 2-3 months from now.>>550629547Oh and forgot to reply, yeah the FCs were great, I believe I commited to something stupid like hook claw + malformed claw and shieldbashing.I still remember Paddick's scythe of want + offhand bandit knife.
gg dreg
>>550630762Need to see gameplay first. The game "looks" cool, but I wanted a bloodborne 2, not a PvPvE that even the devs weren't able to cleary explain. I still am completley unsure how the game will work.
>>550630762no way in hell i'd buy a greedtendo switch 2(frames), besides, if it does poorly it may get ported to a real platform
gg dreg, wish it was ED Balancers though, rough to find keys with all these blacksmith villages everywhere
REDEEMED
>>550630762No because it's on the Mariobox 2.
>>550631178i gave up the gaol/invader meta and am just stacking +14 physical atk
>>550630762Maybe. The only things I spend money on are drugs, alcohol, and FromSoftware shit but I don't really want a Switch 2, I'd rather they Switch 2 a better platform
>>550631434you should get clean
>>550630796Ds2 and 3 had multiple dlcs, how did they go about announcing/teasing them?
>>550631178ggswheres the key on the sunken fort btw
>>550630762Only if it hits PC, I am not buying Switch 2 at the current (and rising) prices.>>550631025I would actually be kinda excited for the PvPvE aspect because ringing for jolly coop as an Executioner, spawning and seeing that your host who needed your help is some Vileblood scum was some of the most fun I had in BB bar spelunking/FCs.From what they explained its gonna have some Role system where people can queue to have Destined Rivals/Allies or something with other players.
>>550631236Sir do not press the l2 sir
>>550631236It's over for this world when someone gets this forged into a legendary
>>550630796>>550631597Old Hunters also used to be 2 separate DLCs initially
They know guardian is bad
>>550631694>Destined Rivals/Allies or something with other players.Gay. Running randoms on nightreign has taught me that the majority of players are retards. Multiplayer elements in fromsoft have always been halfbaked and ill fitting, literally how hard was it just to make bloodborne 2 ffs.
GGs Dreglord. Going into that fight with the spells I had and no real damage negation was some spooky shit.
>>550631874SOTE weapons will solve that how?
>>550631874>Ask them to improve guardian and raider >They announce future ranged character (ironeye, recluse) buffs instead
>>550631879If you dont like it why not just put in "I wanna be the Bad Red Man and kill people who annoy me"Its not like the game is gonna have password-scaled phantoms
>>550629452It's playable but deep relic you'll want post damage healing, items confer and defeating enemies grants ultIt would be better to have continious ult dmg on third relic and put respec relic on deep relic.If you're really committed to not playing Scholar as intended then use Undertaker's necklace relic in slot 3 and put respect in deep relic slot.Personally I think using the balancer relics on him is a mistake.
>>550631874It would be funny if adding erdtree greatbow and balancer relics for RoA spam is the weapon they are referring to
>>550631874>incoming ironeye buffs
>>550632073dueling shield with 100 phys block
>>550632095holy kek
What's the bell build on the mexican?
>>550631874Why the fuck are they speaking Chinese? Fake as fuck.
Why did they spend time, money, effort and manpower into designing, modeling, coding and implementing the new base map POIs when not a single soul is going to clear them in their current state?
>>550632509Its not fake, the interview was in japanese and it was translated into chinese which is this, which is then translated into english.
>>550632509That's like asking why all europeans speak either english or german.They're all asian, they speak the same language.
>>550632581They are good because they can be status
>>550632581because you don't have a choice when your invaders are there and you need to clear 80% of the swamp before they spawn
The fucking gladius raid needs to be nerfed. Why are their additonal dogs after the first one is killed with such agressive AI? Why do I have to hunt down three on solo when I only need to hunt down two balancers solo? It just makes me play like a pussy and use dirty tactics because the amount of things too dodge is literally unfair.
>>550632896Why are you playing a multiplayer game solo?
>>550632896>>550633020don't worry, the raid is cancer in multiplayer too
>>550633020Rnadoms on DON are retards and theirs not always people to que on ERG. Additonally, solo is an option, meaning it needs to be balanced properly. >Nightreign is a gank game!>Gank game = fuck balance
>>550632896the caligo raid is making me think they're just done caring about "hard but fair"that shit kills you through geometry
>>550632896>Actually doing the raidIf you're on shifting hollow just ignore the raid it will despawn when the rain reaches a dog.You're shit out of luck on regular map because if you're unlucky all 3 dog spawns will be outside the rain.
>>550627667Only since 2022>>550629670Literal designed throw character so nothing surprising>>550629671That’s just kinda retarded
>>550632896The game is not balanced for solo play, anon. Look at Youwy and how he only ever does solo runs on Wylder/Duch/Raider. Good luck doing ED Balancers on a solo recluse or rev.
>>550633248Both the raids are fine concpet wise but caligo's ice rain is too deadly on DON for all the unfair reasons, and gladius did not need additonal dogs with agressive AI while your hp is being sapped. I like both the raids in concpet but their balanced so poorly.
>>550630487Why do you keep saying “could”? We know this is the case. They’ve confirmed they’re nothing planned for the future right now.>>550631849Source?
>>550633395>Look at YouwyI'd rather not. That sand nigger is so unlikable/boring that I'm confused how he has a following.
>>550631681if you're coming in from the big entrance ledge it's on a little island towards the left wall, "high quality" chest sometimes guarded by annoying mobs like runebears or flying scorpions, not 100% drop on the key either
What's the fastest way to the super jump from the north castle? Seems like the one place it's not super accessible from
>>550630762I am not buying a Shitch 2 for the purpose of playing one (1) game, no. You can stop asking now.>>550631434Bro, cut that junk out. The junkoids in this general are out of control. No wonder there’s so much deranged behavior in here.
>>550633395I prefer isky, manta, zorban, and lantic
>>550633552>Source?TGA interview>"We were originally planning on doing two sets of DLC," Masaaki Yamagiwa, Sony Japan's producer for Bloodborne, told Eurogamer at Tokyo Game Show today. "It was decided that with one set, we'd be able to do more with it, and have more volume for players to play with. As of right now, we have no plans for any more DLC."They rolled 2 into 1 and expanded them a little bit. Makes sense since then it'd be 2-3 bosses per DLC, so similar with how Ashes of Ariandel went, for example.
>>550633819>one (1) gameIt also has donkey kong
>>550632583That sounds like a good way to get things lost in translation. I’d take anything in it with a grain of salt.
>>550631178>>550631681ggs
They should really tell you the Shifting Earth before you spawn in. Surprise Great Hollow feels like it takes it way too far.
>>550633979If they we're going to add SOTE weapons, it was always going to be through an update. Implementing it through DLC would be a nightmare with how they have the matchmaking setup.
>>550632018ggs
>>550633965>bing bing wahoo - monkey editionmeh
>>550634189Especially with no gaols. Why give me the option to switch presets if I don't know if my gaol relic is useless here?
>>550632896>when I only need to hunt down two balancers soloDid they change this?When I got that raid I still failed after killing just two.Also I just ignore the dog raid, specially since the rewards are worthless.
>>550634189>NOOOOO LEMME FINETUNE MY SETUP FOR THIS PARTICULAR CHALLENGE
the maximum amount of invader NPC's on the new map (two/14% buff) is literally worse than just running in with succ necklace/either balancer relic or even the gay faggot 3+ weapon lines. You basically run in with 2 dead relics if you're a gaolvaders gigastacy
Oi can we please PLEASE stop going into the new dlc night invader POIs on day 1. That shit is near suicide every single time with how densely they're packed with adds and how deep you have to go into them to get the invaders to actually spawn. Just save them for day 2 for the love of god.
>>550634189i like gaolfags being thrown under the bus
>>550634437I've only got the balancer raid solo once but yeah their was only two balancers to hunt down.
gg's balancers
>>550634472the game tells you what nightlord you face doe
>>550634701far from always
>>550600780>Nightreign and it's DLC were both at like 30% DC a couple of weeks ago>Fuck it, I'll wait for a better price during the winter sale>Only Nightreign is at a discount for a measly 25%Im tired of playing myself...
>>550634472Yes...? What's the point of the relic system if a bunch of the effects are randomly gonna switch off half the timeif you just want mindless difficulty there are other games for that. It's not like any good player is going to lose a run due to the new map. It just makes it less fun.
>>550634538Stop being a sissy, you'll spend half a day wiping to the invader and church and be happy
>>550634475>>550634538>people forget that Heolstor's Timmy relic is basically 12% more damage on any fast-hitting damage when you factor in the flat damage + the buffJust gotta ADHD softswap lil bro
>>550634690'
>>550634585don't forget invaders. only one camp can spawn and most of the time its the fucking great church with only 1x NPC. Completely worthless line now.
>>550634892Lol the heolster relic is mediocre as fuck
>>5506347781) Hollow has invaders2) yes, a conditional relic being stronger while utilitarian relic is weaker is a system that makes sense, sorry gaolbrain
>>550635020Thats why I called it a Timmy relic, but it still offers higher damage than the average Gaol/Ninvader line.
I like how Nightreign diluted Elden Ring’s charm and integrity so hard it effectively killed all lore discussion forever. Crazy.
queue d5 we're getting ED Balancers tonight boys
You misspelled sote
gg mystery goat
>>550635089>Hollow has invadersits literally one camp and has a good chance of only being one NPC. 7% is worthless given the current effects available.>a conditional relic being stronger while utilitarian relic is weaker is a system that makes sense, sorry gaolbrainIt already works that way in limveil. successive necklace gives you 35%, and balancers gives you 20% right out of the gate to specific types of damage. Having relics randomly flipped off because you dared to give money to fromsoft is really stupid.
>>550635425Lol no, Nightreign1) Plugs into the lore of the main game just fine, the exact same way AotA did in fact, hence all the parallels between the two2) Nightreign just flat out has a more coherent story and better characters than ER
>>550635425and thats a good thing
>>550635425me when i make shit up
>>550635540Shadow of the Erdtree HAD salvageable lore, like the whole Hornsent culture, but it also ruined the charm of, say, the Carians, with the introduction of a meme character like Rellana (I like the idea of the twin moons but the way it was handled sort of sucked - it felt like a lazy way to give us a new big spell), or the whole Radahn+Miquella reveal. Ymir had an amazing questline until the very end.
This thread made me realize that dex Scholar is shit and if you want to play dex scholar you should just play Executor.
>>550635938i exclusively play dex scholar
the only piece of Nightreign "lore" I dislike are the ancestral followers spirits staying in a forge town
>>550635729Ive never seen the invader camp on great hollow not have two invaders. And at d5 there is 99% chance of there being an invader camp. 14% universal damage on a base relic is more than anything else a base relic can give you, short of a god roll like +cult and +2 lightning.
crater and mountainslop already fucked over gaols, what's one more
>>550636035I don't play nightreign, what forge town?
>>550635734Are you tripping right now? Stop doing drugs. Not a single aspect of Nightreign’s lore is good. It doesn’t tie in. The writers also don’t even know what they’re doing. I doubt Miyazaki helped them at al. He probably didn’t give them notes or anything. He just let them make up their own fan fiction. >>550636035Do people still not understand that the ancestral followers are basically hippies who had forsaken civilization after some great collapse?
please be ED I'm praying
>>550635938I hate dog mode, so no I'll keep playing dex scholar.
lol thanks for the hammer cc
Balanced and guaranteed relics(ripped from r*ddit)
>>550636194Thats cap as fuck I've had the great church spawn a single npc plenty.
>>550636358Hippies let their bodies rot, the ancestral followers are the only stable way of life through the changing ages, and the peak human physique.
>>550636358
>>550636508still weaker than pre-nerf rob er
>>550636581iirc one spawns in the church and the other spawns down in the catacombs if it's the church that's invaded
>>550636508Ironeye carrying two execucks.
>>550631879Really though I would have much preferred them just shacking up with sony again over this. At least we’d likely get something kino out of it
The Hornsent try to mimic a lost culture, which is what their incantations and stage dancers represent. The ancestral followers are similar except they’re underground and ditched the idea of civilization altogether.>>550636603They seek to reincarnate through life as it is naturally without the “evolutionary” taint of the Elden Ring. Marika sought to control this cycle using the power of the Erdtree powered by the Elden Ring. She wanted to decide.
>>550636603Yoked physique from stomping out tunes and moongazing
will other nightlords get dreg'd?
Why are the Nox called Marika’s descendants in the game files?
>>550636883Hornsent being the left over serf class of whatever ruled over Rauh would be funny.
>>550636508forgot to add this is D5>>550636745I'm kinda sad I never got to use it because I was on my strength playthrough when the game released
>>550636025Scholar feels better for dealing raw damage as a DEX character, while Executor works better with status.His fast dodge + thrusting sword as main weapon means you can easily get 5 hits in during even small openings by doing roll + L1L1, which also has great synergy with everything successive attacks related.Though I'd probably consider Executor the better character if his skill weren't cucked and dispelled weapon buffs for no reason, clunky dogshit(lol) character.
>>550635425>cant bring myself to read asoiaf because it's never getting an ending>cant bring myself to play ER anymore because its success gentrified fromsoft gamesI hate GRRM like you wouldn’t believe.
>>550637036let it go man just queue up
>>550637160How does the scholar's bell build work?
>offhand mention of lore triggers the junkietard into a frenzythread is over pack it up
Both Balancers relics make ED Caligo a breeze
>>550636358>It doesn’t tie inIt does though, >Night Giant has the same particle effects as Night armaments from SotE and head shape similar to the Night Helmet>Lost Black Moon of Nokstella>Nox beckoning the Nightlord yet failingeven if its obtuse and foreshadowed in a Chester-esque way>I doubt Miyazaki helped them at alAnon-chama it is truly endearing of you to put Miyazaki on a pedestal of worldbuilding when he 1) explicitly approved adding Dark Souls bosses to Nightreign when Ishizaki asked, as per interviews2) specifically wants Duskbloods to be abstract fiction, i.e. more nebulous and less solid in terms of worldbuildingYou gotta give up those Velka DLC dreamsFROM always gave less shits about lore than whatever your naive mind vested into their works. Kalameet is just a rehash of same idea from KF, as well as countless other examplesThat doesn't mean you can't have fun with the fluff that game provides but flipping it out as if lore ever was truly great and now has fallen from grace is hilariously misguided
>>550637206read malazan like me
>>550637036Which item description says this?
>>550637206This is more so Miyazaki’s fault. He is a lot like George in that they are perfectly fine letting other people adapt their stuff, in horrible ways. The ending of GoT, or just HotD, etc, are no different from the third party travesty that is Nightreign. George and Miyazaki not being involved in said adaptations fucks over the integrity of their games. This is why I hate franchise shit because authors and writers never agree. Stick to one vision.
>>550637206Read the winter king, enemy of god and Excalibur by Ben Shapiro.They capture post roman Britain being invaded by blond people from Germany. Pretty much an apocalyptic scenario. I think dark souls is inspired by it.The main character looks at roman infrastruktur and is amazed by it as a primitiv british man.It's like the golden order.
>>550637036Balancers are called Angel's daughters but this isn't a Christian game so you can surmise the internal names don't mean anything.
>>550637472>It does thoughNope. It’s vague as shit. >even if its obtuse and foreshadowed in a Chester-esque waySuperficially vague shit.
>>550636912the way it's meant to be if you ask me
ggs balancers i got too greedy thinking ecstasy mode would let me get away with it
>>550637860What do I do if I find metal flakes in my stream water? Should I investigate it?
I like this theory
>>550637872ggs
>>550637472>explicitly approved adding Dark Souls bosses to Nightreign when Ishizaki asked, as per interviewsNewfag retard. He has always re-used models. >FROM always gave less shits about lore than whatever your naive mind vested into their worksHe has always treated story third, gameplay first, cute newfag. It’s how he gets his lore. His lore is always some in-setting explanation for game mechanics. Bonfires and grace explain why people and npcs keep coming back. Fire magic being split from blue magic was given a lore nod via the witch of Izalith fucking it up into its own separate type of magic - even though dark souls and demon souls don’t share the same world.
>>550637448Prove it
post some truth nuke
>>550638159Evergaols saved the game.

>>550638159(You) are not good at the game.

>>550638159erg is finished
>>550638305It’s Carians all the way up and down. Azur? Likely a Carian. His spell is on their old ass ancestral sword. The unnamed ancient dynasty of the Nox? Probably the Carians. Sellen? Carian renegade.

Beasts were mindless and then they became civilized and then they became mindless again.This echoes how the wyverns became the ancient dragons and then lost their status again. Bayle might actually be a lot older than Placidusax - and Bayle hates the dragon lord for selling his race to an alien. You’ll notice that Numen are just… those with high runic power. The claymen under the ground are called ‘rune starved’.The rune bears? They’re powerful due to the accumulation of runes.The trills (former giants) are also “losing their minds” after ripping out the face of the fell god out of their chests.Evolution appears to require patronage. Imagine if monkeys could only evolve into humans if they worshiped some alien god.

Also why is he so small compared to the big momma in Caelid?I don’t like how the supposedly kings of all dragons are smaller and less freaky than, say, fucking Gransax.Is Miyazaki trying to tell us that Gransax was a lot stronger than Placidusax?

>>550639683Miyazaki doesn’t actually give a single flying fuck about power levels he’s just an artist not a true coherent writer like George (who also doesn’t really seem to care about power levels btw). George also just wrote out notes that he (Miyazaki) interpreted on his own terms, and George could have made characters like Gideon to be the superior of Rennala but for whatever reason Miyazaki didn’t feel like portraying it that way.It’s so stupid you may as well assume the Greatjar of Caelid is superior to Radahn. You can’t kill it. Miyazaki thinks that’s le hecking badass and kewl.
>>550638386The fact that you get so angry every time the new maps is brought up is proof the Evergaol loyalists won.

When will you retards learn that From’s games are meant to be fun art projects and nothing more? His art and ideas are meant to transcend his games and be shared amongst them. Elden Ring contains elements and themes from all of their previous games. Bayle is based on Balerion for fuck’s sake. Everything Miyazaki does is some nod to some other fiction.

>>550641875I have seamless
>>550641893I've never cheated and I've done pretty good. Cheaterfags are just losers who can't play without every single line of text being optimal to compensate for the fact that they suck at the game.

>>550641893No. Cheaters are a loud minority. Most of us will bock you if we're fairly sure you have cheated relics. Imagine having to cheat to win a pve game.

>>550639474>highest skill ceiling character in the gameThat's Guardian. You need extensive knowledge of hitboxes, enemy moveset, and damage types just to make him function properly, specially if you want to go for guard counters. Of course he's still trash even if you do all that, but it still requires an incredible amount of skill and knowledge
>>550627989When he started, it was ranni the witch and other elden ring characters + their AI voices explaining game mechanicsBut the guy is a coombrained tranny, his patreon is full of porn, so as time went on he turned his avatar into a stultified version of ranni and started using his spic accent because he think it's hotter this way
Ohhhh wow, level three? Yeah, let’s head to the area without a single site of grace and run through five enemies until we die and lose enough for five levels and get stuck on level 2. Nice
>>550641893No lol. You clear all the content you can and amass a bunch of set relics from the jar kid and collector board and you'll get hundreds of other relics while doing it. By the time you reach the high depths you'll have good relics and be playing with good people that sometimes cheat. Cheating skewed the /erg/ mindset really hard early on so you have to discount half these chucklefucks say when it comes to some things. As long as you can survive fights you'll get the hang of the real game.
>>550640461>comedy chevronheh
>>550625965While erg was weaker in terms of multiplayer activity, it had truly outstanding amounts of creative stuff even if you don't count the pornographic

>>550641893Most characters can get by with their rememberence relics and a night invader relic, it's more about not being shit.
>think maybe since family heads is the only purple flail you can do a guarenteed dormant skill build for it>D-scaling intelligencewhy
They need to bufff the range of items confer effects and flasks heal allies. It's hard to play support in higher depths when i have to run into the danger zone and risk getting oneshot to buff and heal my allies. Also make throwing daggers purchasable from the day 3 merchant.
>>550639683Why are you allergic to the reply function?>>550639870Source?
what are the str/int weapons in DS2
>>550645140it's also "fun" how it makes the item animation longer toonot being able to buy flesh until the spirit shelter merchant sucks as well, since by that point you'd rather crab
>>550644984don't you guys block for using basic relics like remembrance items?
are ED balancers really in depths?
>>550645462yes please come queue, I am not good enough to carry spirit on my own </3
>>550645462Doesn't seem like it, I looked in smithbox and the appearance rates for ED balancers were all 0% at every depthbut I dunno if I was actually looking at the right thing or not
>>550645631had them now few times in depths but always vanilla, not that i mind really the fight is pretty overwhelming with the everything that happens
You fuckers wouldn't queue so I got stuck doing my first two Schutzstaffel Balancers runs with randoms. Thanks assholes.
>>550646096did u win<redditspaceI always do my first run of an ED with randoms because i know its going to be a stomp with erg
Is it just me or are the DLC bosses just d3-d4 tier by default difficulty wise, and D5 makes them completely bonkers

>>550645224The smelter demons blue sword or moonlight greatsword. Kill dukes dear freja

>>550646645they are definitely harder than regular non-depths bosses thats for sure
>>550640648yeah i'm based
Me in game vs me in real life
>>550646617First one we lost after some awful luck with the towers and a Caligo invasion. Second was a dogs invasion next to Nokleo that was pretty manageable.

I finally beat balancers.
I finally beat my meat.
I finally beat my wife
>DON4 Great Hollow>one guy beelines it towards a church and crystals killing nothing on the way>attacks Libra>quitsWhat the hell?
>the Balancers, the holy winged valkyries inspired by a female warrior deity depicted in statue raising a weapon aloft, who have an additional pink flower aesthetic, serve the heavens and do graceful dance-like slashing combos, flying dive bombs, quickstep dashes, and full body thrusts, and also have spears that generated walls of golden light spears or shoot golden discs, also now do a blood-themed Scarlet Aeoniado you think we'll ever get actual lore on the connection between these guys and Malenia or is it forever going to be some "haha think wonder forever!" bullshit. The similiarites are distractingly blatant but right now they don't mean anything. They even have the same walking animation and references to her OST in theirs. It'd be like if the Old Dragonslayer was in DS2 but had no lore linking him to Ornstein.
>>550647275You look like revenant IRL?
>>550648148he didnt find 4 crystals so he aggro'd libra out of resentment before quitting
>>550648156>MaleniaThey're pawns of the Formless Mother nothing to do with Rot.
yeah id highly recommend avoiding the wall during everdark balancers, fuck that
>>550648349he did though. he got the blessing and went to a sorcerers tower as the only POI he went to as a wylder.
>>550648483Their connection with Malenia doesn't have to be rot-based (since the rot itself is a foreign infection to her, even her flower and butterfly theming is indicated by her twin sharing the same to be inherent to her rather than rot-based), but there clearly is one. They're both valkyries who fight very similarly, and their spells are literally just ripped from her Cleanrot Knights. And that blooming crimson flower is as transparent a reference as I've ever seen.
the bloodworm's spear rain attack is probably the coolest looking enemy attack in the game
>>550602634Plausible. We already have confirmation that Calligos was a cut boss from ER and going by internal file names it seems very likely that Putrescent Knight was too.
This is what Harmonia looks like?
are all the newfies and dlc/ed tourists gone?
>>550649009not really
Loremasters tell me what Godrick the Grafted would do if he saw this
>>550649285you know that gif of seinfeld getting up and leaving?
I hate it when I'm with terr and mellow and I have a bad game and they come to my house and rape me afterward
>>550648771On the other hand. All the blood and Mohg being the day 2 boss.
>>550648771>They're both valkyriesValkyrie just means warrior woman in Elden Ring. And the Formless Mother also had the flower motif in ER.Matter of fact, there are some themes in ER that are shared by multiple things. There are like a dozen kind of flames, a shit load of things are associated with spirals etc etc
gg dog, rip practicegreatbow rev is much more interesting now that the erdtree greatbow can spawn

>>550649065>block newshits and tourists >problem solved It's that easy
>>550602634It just looks like a repurposed tree spirit.
>>550648771>who fight very similarly, and their spells are literally just ripped from her Cleanrot Knights.Using recycled movesets or abilities is very risky for assumptions. From loves to recycle. Rellana has literally some Malenia moves and they don't have a real connection.
>>550649865having friends sounds nice
Are all the new bloods and freshers gone?
>>550649009Angewoman?
>>550649342Yes
>>550648156>>550648483>>550648771Look, the balancers are not inherently connected to the formless mother. They were corrupted by the night when they couldn’t defeat it.As for the connection to Malenia, TLDR>the formless mother is also the crucible, what was left when it pulled a Miquella and divested itself of all its aspects >most of these aspects are animal parts and plant parts, as can be seen with hornsent and the aspect of the crucible incantations >hower malenia’s flower is also an aspect, and rot was another aspect just like the crucible that FM divested itself from. Leaving only shockingly clean, rotless, formless blood I told you so now you need to tell me what the heck that blue great rune is

>>550650873i was going to but i forgoit would've done more damage though i bet
>>5506507791500 isn't bad. You're just used to caster damage.
ED Balancers 1/3 (I have hollows active)
What gameplay design theory did they use for the relic and class based build diversity?I think it's all based on influencing RNG to an extent while having a few underwhelming factors you can control.I wonder if I should write a paper on medium or substack or something on this topic.
>>550650853did you think all the posts about him being a spergy griefer were a joke?
>>550650593why is clumsy like this?
>>550651143gach- roguelike is popular and uhhh *checks notes* brings longevity to the game
>>550651025it's pretty bad for a legendary weapon's long ass AoWhonourable mention to the doot doot hammer, which despite being a purple with a unique AoW was doing less dps than a glintstone pebble
>"smash, smash, smash the night"Brilliant writing, fromsoft.
>>550650779Skills just aren't very good save for a few exceptions. Also Marika's hammer is a charged R2 weapon, not a skill one.
>>550651143Do you think Hollow takes away player agency with relics? Because you can't activate the gaol buffs, and it removes an Invader camp, and you can't see you're playing on hollows until you spawn in
>>550651231Yeah it's gacha, I definitely need to write a paper on this topic. I wonder how many minutes it should be. Last time I wrote something it was 25 minutes long and nobody wanted to read it.
>>550651296the medium and large dooters aren't too bad desu
>>550651212hes clumsy
>>550651143>class based build diversity?They're just turning archetypes that already existed in Souls into classes.
>>550651520Why is the small dooter bad
>>550651520The medium fucking obliterates stuff if you can manage to hit with most of the bubbles.
>>550651647Melee damage is fine but the Skill is bell-tier
2/3 ED Balancers the ED q cant be this dead already right? I wanted to practice the new map and fight more
>>550651647single, tiny, very slow bubbles and range isn't even that good. only use it as a club don't bother with the skill
gg dogsi really don't know great hollow well enough to do it efficiently in depths, i was kinda just running around in the top castle hoping to find anything to kill
>>550652045Yeah best to just sink your FP into GV/Order buffs in your offhand then whack with it
>>550652287ggs
performative bitches
>>550652287My flowchart for the top castle is usually sewers from the right next to the church (omen killer) -> unleash the geyser/kill the sewer main boss -> jump up and do center boss (hippo/foreskins) -> go up to the central tower (another foreskin out front) -> either do rooftop boss (very very very retarded that this can just not spawn sometimes) or run to the boss rush tower
gg thread everyone, queuing for the next one

I guess I'm Ironeye now, they coulda not waited till the last drop to give me that though lmao
>>550650214>They were corrupted by the nightThey explicitly are not corrupted by the night or they would be Everdark Soverigns instead of Salvation's Standard BearersWe kill the Balancers because they're keeping Dreglord contained, which is why he's so weak at the start of the dlc but he just keeps getting back up when killed. So the Nightfarers kill the Balancers to unleash the Dreglord at full power so we can put him down for good.
ggs ED dogsgood test run, the spear works about as well as BoC. thanks for the donation btw tide and thanks for the shop buy, most people don't normally get what i mean when i try to get them to buy a dupe for me
>>550655573ggs
>>550655573most people are unfortunately beyond redemption, so many hollow runs of people following me when I just go for crystals and ping for them where to go
>>550655491i wonder how good going for dormant bows would be now and then fishing for barrage since it looked pretty good
Does the sleep weakness do anything special with ED balancers or is it still kinda useless?
>>550655313The scaling they got was comparable to a d2-3 increase for every other boss
>>550655718I dont think it'd be worth on any other boss than dogs, heolstor will rape you but the dogs proc the holy ministun pretty fast when split and have large openings to plink, I also had FP on hit +3 and stam on hit relic which I think helped a lot
>>550655724Really? I've never lost to blood angels, but it's ALWAYS been 0 or 1 flasks remaining. That's kind of reassuring, they'd be far and away harder than any other ED fight.
>>550655850tested black bow with +12 phys/balancer2 in training and it's not that good damage on duchess at least
>>550655719It does the same thing as regular balancers. Might have a use case in D5 to sleep some balancers to remove them from the current phase 1 to stop you getting swarmed.
>>550655972does bs damage really = difficulty
>>550651305So true>>550651208>>550650853Good posts
>dodging balancers
>>550649865What a sad thing to say. You haven’t played many vidya I’m afraid.
>>550656094Considering how they balanced ED dogs this is genuinely what they believe
>>550653583i don't think i've ever noticed this despite always having that line in my relic loadout so maybe they just added a new visual effect for it?
Wow we bullied ED Adel so hard he couldn't even go into his second phase because we kept stunlocking him, I didn't even know that was possible
>>550656407That's what I was thinking! I just assumed I was wrong though lol. It looks nice.
>>550649487didn’t happen btw>>550649065yes but they’ve been replaced with lorefagging instead (grim)

>>550657173I need to play Undertaker more, I've only put in 40 games with her. I'm just having too much fun starting with spells on Rev for now. I'm sure I'll swap to Undertaker soon when I get bored.
>>550649657>Valkyrie just means warrior woman in Elden RingNo it doesn't. The term is used for zero characters in base ER other than Malenia and her aspects. "valkyrie" is also a specific visual motif.

>>550647275No you don’t cuck>>550640515That’s pretty true yeah >>550649657I mean that’s more of an admittance that the lore in this game is a hodgepodge of shit that no one really paid attention to, thus it ended up with a bunch of overlapping unintentional themes
