All I can say is the whole dlc is 100% getting nerfed. I have 50 points in health and a good armour set and every single enemy does more than half my health with one hit
Dude tag you are a staple in my memory bro I can't think of rdr2 without imaging your old videos man. What's some amazing days watching all the new tagback rdr2 videos. Hearing your voice just takes me back to memory lane of all the amazing things rdr2 had to offer
@charlesahweyevu Miazaki, let me cheese, so I cheese. Also, oogway is racist brainrot. Treat yourself better, man. Throw on some George Carlin or something
I am lvl 220, with all original game talismans and weps, I spent yesterday evening doing co-op and experimenting with new builds,(some better than others) helping people fighting twin blade Rellana. Out of maybe 30 or 40 fights, the host died almost every fight, often in first phase, and I was buffing them with golden vow, and erdtree blessing, at the start, then magic fortification at the second phase, and most still died. Given my level, they must be somewhere between lvl 190 and 250, and this is a very early game boss. I was using various builds, but found swarm of flies really successful at wiping significant health from the boss, and even with this, very few succeeded. I admit I am not the best player, but I have completed all the dark souls games and Elden ring, so I guess I must be at least average, and I died pretty often too, and I was getting good at learning his move set!
Awesome guide man thank you so much. Took me like 30 hours to finish cause I kept getting distracted but your guide walked me through all of it. Thanks again !!
@@Invader_Hex Its no better for me at NG. I've been throwing myself at a boss I'm not going to name, because I feel he's very out of the way. Every boss besides the Lion has given me an extremely hard time.
@@Invader_Hex it’s fine I killed him lol, I didn’t wanna go through with making a new save and leveling him up and killing both bosses to get to the dlc so I thought this character will have to do 🤣 il regret it sure but I’m always down for a hard challenge so
The recurring theme of the DLC seems to be enemies that can perform infinite combos and never stop moving. In the base game there’s a couple enemies like this but for the most part you have gaps in their combos where you can strike. Every enemy and boss in the DLC pieces you the fuck up.
I'm seeing a lot of comments from folks dying off 1 or 2 hits here & I can sympathise. Brutal start to this dlc, even the Mausoleum bosses basic bs was punishing me. I at least have some advice, this dlc starts rough mostly by reducing damage dealt and increasing damage received. That is until you find Scadutree pick ups to reverse the punishment. I found 6 or 7 in the starting area alone whilst avoiding combat entirely. Most were near sites of grace & easy enough to grab in a mad dash. Difficulty massively reduced after that and im progressing smoothly after exacting vengeance on some fools. Its definitely tough but also fair. Nothing near Melanias level of disgusting so far.
Exactly, these "players" are just stubborn and don't understand how these games work. Also so many people are going to the DLC on ng+3 and above and then wondering why the DLC is so hard lol.
@@Invader_Hex To be fair I've gone in Ng+4 because that was the save I had closest to accessing dlc & I couldn't be bothered starting anew. Didn't expect it to be easy though. Not trying to be too critical either but I didn't expect the "separate" levelling system intended to keep the dlc challenging would just be a debuff until finding items to level things out. Can't complain too much though, absolutely quality so far.
I was only at 7, I forgot the one in the castle. After getting to 7 though and having the weapons from the base game maxed I only got killed once by a minor character going to get that last one. Not the big guy either, womp womp. A basic with a hammer got me. 🎉 thank you.
Im max level and have 50 resist to almost everything and on top of that radahn rune so 2514 hp and i can tank not much honestly while bosses cant oneshot me they sure dont have a problem with taking me down in about 4-5 attacks which is very alright since half of them are humanoid so i just stunlock them with my 67 poise so I tank 1 hit and they go flying The ghost fire dragons are busted tho idk if im just too weak so far but they have so much hp and they 3 shot me

@@LeonNg I was already buying NG+7, so the bosses have more health…I’m level 440 and I was getting one or two shot initially, then I decided to get to SB20 and now I’m OP again, pretty much same as base game.
The player base complaining and eventually leading to changing is pretty sad. People just rush bosses and don’t figure this stuff out and say the game is too hard. There’s new mechanics, new items, new power system. You can’t just ignore that and base your experience on this.
Have only died once the stats are important and abundant. So explore if your having difficulties enemies are very spaced take your time and enjoy the lands and relax. This is a new experience we are suppose to be fresh and struggle. You won't be able to take everything head on but black flame protection will middigate some damage early.
I can't beat Messmer, his moveset is crazy, I don't have so much stamina to dodge all of his attacks, I'm in ass, lost about 50 times in a row. This DLC stat boost doesn't really help. I beat Malenia but this bastard is next level.
I feel you man. I was able to finally beat him after nonstop attempts for around 2 hours. Feels like the scaling is against you than actually helping lol.
@@Soda_IV I hate this idea with scadutree fragments. 50 mandatory collectables, no matter 150, 200 or 450 levels you have, if you don't have enough fragments for your current state of dlc progress, you will be dying and dying by two or even one shots. I'm in love with Elden Ring, but this DLC don't love me back.
What? Ran out of stamina in his ass?! I haven't played the dlc yet but I don't think you're doing it right. I think first you need to get out of his ass.
I have a character in new game +7 and i needed 80% damage reduction to not get killed in a single combo edit: forgot to mention i have 80 in health and i sometimes used a rune arc for morgot rune
@Invader_Hex because I beat the game 3 timed for 100% 2 years ago to get 100%? Having to remake a character JUST to play the DLC didn't sound enjoyable to me personally. Most weapons already +25 or +10. Everything unlocked.
@Invader_Hex we aren't wondering why it's so hard. We knew what we were getting into when they announced it. Still doesn't mean it can't still be frustrating. Even some people who haven't gone to NG+ are struggling.
Hmmm idk. I followed guide got all them but my numbers never increased. Just put a golden color on my weapon power numbers. Maybe its a glitch, maybe there is a cap to how much increased power you can gain. Thinking maybe if your already strong they do nothing....
Everyone here saying the dlc is too hard really just need to get better like unironically. Ive hit difficulties but nothing thats no different than normal elden ring. Dont ruin something just cause yall cant keep up🤷🏽
The knight in the castle wasnt really that difficult. his attacks threw off on the first attempt. got it on the second. Rellana however, f*cked me over quite a few times. less than 10 I think but still. Tiche couldnt really help with Rellana though :( first time that has happened I think.
This was a wonderful day one vid, but please stop doing so many jump cuts. It's something most of us had to work around several times in the video. Speeding up the footage does no harm
Bro I'm begging you to stop with the jump cuts. Tried the dlc, got REAMED, and left it for a while. Came back, am trying to use your video, but it's quite confusing when you point out an area, jump cut to the area without giving any clue as to your surroundings, then take off. Had to constantly rewind and double check because instructions were a lil vague at times without a better visual. Otherwise, great video tysm.

How do you upgrade your weapons in the dlc? I can’t go back to roundtable
Like you usually go to the round table, open map and change to the normal world and than choose round table
On PS5: open map, triangle, square. Then, X to confirm.
can you people not read? It says what to press at the bottom when you open the map.
Kicking ass no issue the twin moon knight slaps tho
pretty sure theyre gonna do some serious nerfing in the next patch xD
They most likely won’t.
The only nice thing my level 500 does in this DLC is I can change to any build however I see fit. Without using larval tears…😂😂😂
Showing map locations would go a long way
would prefer if instead of making cuts while on the journey you would just show the full process, even if its sped up
