The DLC literally nudges you in the right direction with landmarks and golden trails on the map. I swear this new generation of TH-cam gamers should not even be into this hobby. It’s not for you.
Dude. That black knight dude was tickled by every +10 I hit him with. And his white blasphemous sword and crossbow with the switch would 2 shot me to oblivion. Lvl150 my ass, lol. 185 here fully humbled
OMG...My whole first playthrough Doms Roundtable was my go to for any info. And today I started the DLC and Dom is back. Good days :D I love this channel
I died to that blade spinner in the grave plains within 30 seconds of finding the first sight of grace! NG+ and I’m level 470! 😵💫 SCADU-BELIEVE I need those blessings asap!!!
The only thing I wish I’d known before the dlc is how badly they were going to nerf some of my builds. Wish I could’ve prepped a different weapon on my mage for example
Incantations, w sorcery. And for my main weapon it's either the blasphemy or the cita pitA. Aka the holy claw with zero weight. Is great for the small areas I can't use a great sword.
If you need a good int weapon, Wing of Astel and Darkmoon still destroy pretty much everything even in the DLC. Wing for stance breaking and Darkmoon for damage, to be specific.
@@urtoryu_dy_althraidn yeah I feel that. I had to respec over to wing because I WAS using Dark Moon specifically as a stance break for enemies that would get up in my face and not let me cast from a distance. They nerfed the stance damage on dark moon though so I swapped to wing of Astel and it’s doing alright.
100+ hours into my first playthrough, and while I can't access the DLC yet (still ain't beaten Mohg), I just gotta say thank you, Dom, for all you do for the ER community!! Your videos have truly helped me master the game and feel good about moving on from an area since I know I have fully completed it. Keep up the good work dude!!
DO NOT KILL the kindred of rot you find randomly scattered across the world, they are NOT ennemies but friendly NPCs that give you stuff if you talk to them. I learned that the hard way.
Furnace golem is super easy on foot. Just jump over his one-legged fire attacks into a jump attack on his other leg. When he jumps in the air just run away and get back between his legs! His grab is deadly but you can avoid it by staying below and slightly behind him.
On replenishing flasks: i find popping a warming stone and slapping on Blessed Dew talisman after a fight, and my health regens super quick. I went through nearly my whole base game playthrough without knowing that Warming Stones can heal me. Fun fact: if you have Warming Stones ready to use in your consumables tab, your mimic will use them as well, giving your mimic summon a light healing ability. Hope that helps!
Dom your channel is one of the best and easiest guides for finding stuff. I’ve watched every single video and it’s made the game much more manageable. So happy to hear you’re getting so many views! You are my motivation to play the game tbh AND you have the nicest voice. You’re a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for all you do!! Happy DLC day from Chicago in the US.
3:47 my only complaint so far is it really feels like you need a topographic map to see what level your on. Something like being able to darken anything but a range of Y coordinates.
Just wanted to say, I really appreciate your approach to this video. It’s helpful without revealing everything. I’ve always appreciated the way you communicate with folks watching. Helpful information and tips without judgement or gate keeping. Keep up the good work Dom!
Furnace golem is actually super easy on foot. The stomps are easy to jump over on foot. The only attack that's hard to get away from quickly enough is the high vertical explosion, but that's actually easily blockable with a shield. I'd honestly say it's easier on foot, and flame protect me makes his damage a joke. Probably more fun with Torrent, but not easier.
For the new gold and silver ram horn consumables, they do not work in tandem with fowl feet, however they do stack with the scarab talismans. I found (at least for the gold) that the ram horns actually provide more % increase than the fowl feet.
I wouldn’t recommend using rune arcs just whenever since you will get murdered fairly easy going anywhere. Instead use the towards the end once you got some gear and upgraded the tree fragments
The easy way to take out the Furnace Golems (at least the six of them that forgot to wear shin pads) is our old friend Raptor of the Mists! Stick that on a weapon with good poise damage-I used the Star Fist-and go to town. Make sure to stand behind to avoid getting grabbed. Poise break three times to get the golem to fall over, then ride around to the face for a massive crit. Rinse, and repeat!
I’m sure you noticed now but I did too but I went threw them so fast it was scary so make sure u picked up all the bell bearings in main game I’m really glad I did
Another free tip/hack that goes for healing : leaving messages in early areas , right after fights etc - it is a LOT of ppl still starting and currently playing so the amount of times it’s saved me compared to base game over the last couple months is ridiculous. Literally was sitting and reading something the other day and had about 6-7 messages get praised to the point it made me just go back to playing just in case it would stop soon lol
I'm still prepping for the DLC so these can be helpful whenever I get started. I lasted played Elden Ring last summer. I had just beaten the Fire Giant but was clearing out some of the side things before I took a break. I restarted back into the game last week. Wanted to finish Ranni' s quest, do the Shunning Grounds, do the Snowfeilds, finish Volcano Manor, tackle the Haligtree, and go up til burning the Erd Tree. I've finished the Shunning Ground, Snowfields, and just started the Haligtree. I expect to get through the Tree today and possibly finish the Manor. This is honestly good for me because it gives time for people to make some guides, I'm not one to go through something blindly, made that mistake with several games. Not fun missing out on something important or hit a wall where you can't go back.
Dom, ive watched your "100% complete" videos in the past to help me explore areas. Hope you'll be doing those in this dlc as well. Cheers man well done!
Thank you for keeping it spoiler free! I'm always scared that I'm missing important stuff (like the moonlight thing) but I really don't want to search anything related to the DLC cause I'm so scared of spoilers 😂
Thank toy for everything Dom! The few days leading up to release was like WW3 trying to dodge the leaks. It doesn't help that all my FYP feeds os elden ring bloated. So just thumb nails were terrifying. I always knew your videos would be perfect. You know how to keep things informative and super spoiler light.
I didn't understand the scadutree fragments and thought they were like rune arcs. I played the entire DLC without using them until I got to the point where I couldn't beat two of the bosses (Bayle and Messmer). I looked online for tips and learned that you're supposed to spend your scadutree fragments as soon as you get them. I used all of my scadutree fragments and it ranked me up to scadutree tree blessing 14. I immediately went back and took down the two bosses with just my spirit summons and I.
Can you make a video that’s a checklist of what to ensure you do before starting a ng+? Finished everything I could find and wondering what I may have missed.
I just spent 20 minutes going through my inventory looking for what I was sure was a talisman that i picked up at a gravesite after the ymir quest and it turned out to be some weird finger spell. Your first tip is my favorite thing because i was literally screaming why wouldn't they mark my new items!?!😅
when you use a silver fowl foot (or any other discovery boosting item), your item discovery increases in the stat screen. so if the new item stacks or is better, you can compare them in the stat screen. i’d bet the items probably override one another edit: and remember, if you want rune arcs, engage with multiplayer. co op, invade, help as a blue hunter…. ALL will give you an arc for completion of your goal. (kill the boss, kill the host, kill the invader, respectively.) the easiest way i found in the base game is to find an annoying dungeon boss that people don’t like (the double watchdogs were great for this in the base game) and just put your sign down by the boss room door. i usually put it just behind the big double doors. why not use the summoning pool? cuz then you gotta do the whole dungeon. a LOT faster to just help with the boss. and if your sign is outside the double doors, depending on where the boss room is, it might lead to you getting roped into doing the whole dungeon as well. there are a few side bosses in the first area that are tanky as balls that i’m sure people wouldn’t mind an extra helping hand with. eeeeeeeeeasy rune arcs.
Torrent for furnace golems? I was surprised at how small the hitbox for their flame stomps is. You can easily get the hang of jumping on foot for them, meanwhile each jump you do a jumping attack on a leg. It takes more times thab regular golems but eventually you break their stance fully and can get a critical for massive damage just like regular golems. The only thing to really watch out for is getting picked up... I imagine that's easier to dodge with torrent.
Another brilliant video. Hoping to jump into the DLC tomorrow. I didn’t realise that none of my characters were quite there yet, not even my original over-levelled lady. Also, prior to watching this, today I focused on running around the base game to collect every possible crafting item until it said I couldn’t carry anymore 😂
New feature; "Mark New Items " = Yes, "Show Recent Items Tab"= No. Panic Inventory check for a much needed item only to be momentarily confused by a new and strange screen rather than the standard Inventory Tab is unnecessary death. The mark is enough, don't need the tab.
The only way i found to brute force furnace golems was ancient dragon lightning charge casts right underneath them. Even then, still helpful to cast from torent so you can jump his stomps easy.
Thanks, Dom. Only played 2 hours of DLC so far. But as a lvl 295, I was struggling a bit. I’ll actually USE those new power-ups and go adjust my stats (more arcane). Finding my giant crusher with 99 strength barely scratched early big bads, so I should probably redistribute some of those points, too.
Hey man, just wanted to say, I love this video. Every thing was very good, I love you're methodical and calming voice, every thing was very spot on, good healthy advice (how many times have I/we seen a video with "one easy step that will kill all bosses" and then it's either with 100 caveats, like it only works if you're lucky/have millions of very specific stuff etc). You're video actually gives great advice that will make the game more enjoyable. And for someone that loves this game and doesn't want to rush it (and try out every cool thing)..this was perfect. Thanks alot!. I will definitely sub and watch more. Sorry for my bad English. /Johan from Sweden
with regards to rune arcs the two areas to accumulate them are the rat room in Castle Morne near the site of grace. i have found the drop rate to be roughly 4 to 4 1/2 %. sometimes as high as 6% and sometimes 1% if i do 50 runs. I also found in the Deep Roots area the cave off of a tree branch is full of ants and these inflated bag things. Destroy them and i think you can get upwards of 6 or 8 rune arcs. However i have not gone back to check if the area respawns. i would think it would since you are killing ants and these inflated bags (?egg sacs).
I'm awful at this game. It was my first souls style game, and your videos have really helped me to be able to enjoy it so much more than I could have on my own. Thank you!
Still haven't gotten to Blood and Wine, but I'm pretty sure I'm near the endgame so shouldn't be too far. Won't be playing The Witcher for a while now that Shadow of the Erdtree came out though.
Can wait for your stuff your missed series. Thats how I discovered your channnel. Those videos are really good and super funny and articulate. This DLC is amazing. I've been glued to the TV since midnight haha
Dom: "I tried to make sure I had about 100 of everything before heading into the DLC." Me: Has massive collection of almost every type of bone arrow, and tries to keep his collection of Thin Beast bones above 600... "Lightweight,"
You don't need to rest to respawn the glittering pot carriers, you can quit out and reload, they will spawn back in their spot and regular enemies will still be dead.
Watching this video as I continue to build my fresh Guts Greatsword build (currently level 85) for a fresh start heading into the DLC. Gonna horde all the silver & gold foul feets, ghost glovewarts, rune arcs, and just stack up everything in my inventory. Gonna take things slow and steady to get the most out of the DLC rather than those who seem to be rushing in and wanting to tank. It still might be a week before I get to Shadow, but I feel the payoff will be worth it rather than just going in with build from a year or two years ago. Even playing the base game from scratch (no NG+) working towards what I know is going to be intense has completely changed the way I play it, and it feels fresh again.
What’s up Dom I’ve never been happier when being lied to than when Miyazaki does it. Big Thank you to everyone at FROMSOFT , truly epic. I’ve Resub now that I have 6hrs and forgotten where I’ve picked things up. You better come ready bc this will “test your mettle.”
Thanks so much for this and your other videos Dom - you're always my go-to for ER tips and content! 🙌🏼 Going to get into the DLC tonight and tomorrow!!🥳🥳🥳
I absolutely love this dlc. Watched a walkthrough from a different channel, saw a lot of hate comments but i stand firm on my stance. Main gripe i saw was in regards to the ending....but hey, i have the dlc and since I'm at lv40, I'll be hopping in roughly 6 months from now since im an abysmal player atm...(Started playing VERY recently)😅
I took my journey 6 lvl 297 into the dlc made it to messemer brought in my lvl 140 base new game and wow the difference! Anyone struggling on your high end character try option 2
Right off the bat I got stuck on Guts* for a little over an hour. It was very humbling and put me in a good mindset going forward. I also beat the Lion dancer and Rellana before I had to cut myself off to go to sleep lol
Been here since “Domtastic Gaming” & im so proud of you for your growth, recognition & thankful for you dedication to us all Dom! You deserve every bit of success coming your way brother!🫶🏾🤘🏾🔥 Thank you for everything & thank you for a seat at The Round Table 🙏🏾
I’m assuming the difficulty spike comes after the first area. I been so busy exploring I haven’t been made it to a boss yet. But the basic enemies haven’t been too tough. They definitely hit HARD but if you’re patient it pays off.
Good vid I got home from vacation last night and am trying to muster up the energy to get out of bed and start the dlc today so your vids are holding me over until I eventually do so. Hopefully I’ll get my lazy up and play today but probably won’t be until tomorrow. Anyway another great vid keep up the good work brother
That time of day mechanic is like demons souls tendancy system kind of. That's cool going to download the dlc after I get out the snowy area I just made it to. Dom you have great videos helped me get to the mountain top!
Right before I thought "okay, I want to listen to something in the background since I'm just running around these spooky grasslands" and opened up this video, I had just thought "what the heck, where's the new items tab?" Specifically because I kept forgetting to check all the new crafting materials to see if they said anything interesting. Anyway, turned the new items features on now!
Honestly as someone who only has 90 hours on any souls game ever, and that is Elden ring, the dlc isn't rly that hard in comparison to the base game, it's just a matter of learning patterns more than the damage u receive, never plan on getting hit and the damage difference doesn't matter
Spirit summons don't get used because they start costing a ton of fp when lvl'd up, i lvld a bunch of mine up and i can't even use them now, bac kto mimic tear.

How did you get 200 hours play time before everyone else?
I can't get those jerks to put in an easy mode.
“A nudge in the right direction while still going in blind” is exactly what I needed. Thank you man
The DLC literally nudges you in the right direction with landmarks and golden trails on the map. I swear this new generation of TH-cam gamers should not even be into this hobby. It’s not for you.

@@beelow84 I somehow killed him with my flame blade but man that crossbow
Yea that same guy. Black Knight goal... Beat me down three times and I tapped out and went to sleep. And I never got him to half health ...
The crossbow is actually easy to dodge if you just walk slightly forward and to the right, and you can even get a free attack or two in
OMG...My whole first playthrough Doms Roundtable was my go to for any info. And today I started the DLC and Dom is back. Good days :D I love this channel

100% I was playing on the press build and then moved over to live and half the stuff I was using has been nerfed! 🙃
I’m thinking of respeccing, my mage just isn’t it for these early bosses
Incantations, w sorcery. And for my main weapon it's either the blasphemy or the cita pitA. Aka the holy claw with zero weight. Is great for the small areas I can't use a great sword.

DO NOT KILL the kindred of rot you find randomly scattered across the world, they are NOT ennemies but friendly NPCs that give you stuff if you talk to them. I learned that the hard way.
And if you find a curled up one drop a warming stone by them.

Stuck working until Saturday. I can start playing the DLC Sunday. Nice to see you back at it my dude.
Glad to see Dom is here, shining a torch on our path to the Shdowlands
I’m a vet and I love the new item visuals. Definitely going to help out a ton.
Dom is PUTTING IN WORK!! Appreciate the amount of content coming out! Amazing work.
Work Lol. Right.
For the new gold and silver ram horn consumables, they do not work in tandem with fowl feet, however they do stack with the scarab talismans. I found (at least for the gold) that the ram horns actually provide more % increase than the fowl feet.
I wouldn’t recommend using rune arcs just whenever since you will get murdered fairly easy going anywhere. Instead use the towards the end once you got some gear and upgraded the tree fragments
Rune Arcs are easy to farm, just go help beat bosses.
Walked in at level 130, fought a naked guy, died, spent my 16m runes like nope
The easy way to take out the Furnace Golems (at least the six of them that forgot to wear shin pads) is our old friend Raptor of the Mists! Stick that on a weapon with good poise damage-I used the Star Fist-and go to town. Make sure to stand behind to avoid getting grabbed. Poise break three times to get the golem to fall over, then ride around to the face for a massive crit. Rinse, and repeat!
You can jump their steppies, but if they jump with two legs. Yes, use Rapture of the Mist.
Perfect! I saved all my spirit ashes upgrade materials from 2 playtroughs since I only upgraded the mimic tear so this dlc seems perfect.
I’m sure you noticed now but I did too but I went threw them so fast it was scary so make sure u picked up all the bell bearings in main game I’m really glad I did

First one coming out tomorrow! 🎉
I have noticed with the newer weapons from the DLC that a lot of them have Arcane scaling.... that's pretty cool
Thanks, Dom. Only played 2 hours of DLC so far. But as a lvl 295, I was struggling a bit. I’ll actually USE those new power-ups and go adjust my stats (more arcane).
Finding my giant crusher with 99 strength barely scratched early big bads, so I should probably redistribute some of those points, too.
Funny got so much crap for using spirit ashes in the main game. Hearing use them just makes me chuckle. My loux doll should be fun to use.
I had to stop playing and come watch your videos cause I was just overwhelmed and a little lost. Thanks 👍
Hey man, just wanted to say, I love this video. Every thing was very good, I love you're methodical and calming voice, every thing was very spot on, good healthy advice (how many times have I/we seen a video with "one easy step that will kill all bosses" and then it's either with 100 caveats, like it only works if you're lucky/have millions of very specific stuff etc).
You're video actually gives great advice that will make the game more enjoyable. And for someone that loves this game and doesn't want to rush it (and try out every cool thing)..this was perfect. Thanks alot!.
I will definitely sub and watch more.
Sorry for my bad English.

Played for a couple hous last night. It's beautiful. Very empty in spots and densely packed in others.
with regards to rune arcs the two areas to accumulate them are the rat room in Castle Morne near the site of grace. i have found the drop rate to be roughly 4 to 4 1/2 %. sometimes as high as 6% and sometimes 1% if i do 50 runs. I also found in the Deep Roots area the cave off of a tree branch is full of ants and these inflated bag things. Destroy them and i think you can get upwards of 6 or 8 rune arcs. However i have not gone back to check if the area respawns. i would think it would since you are killing ants and these inflated bags (?egg sacs).
I'm awful at this game. It was my first souls style game, and your videos have really helped me to be able to enjoy it so much more than I could have on my own. Thank you!
Dom’s back!!!
I don't know if this DLC will pass Blood and Wine for me, but we'll see! Thanks for the content, as always. You're the best.
Blood and Wine...hearing the name gives me goosebumps.
Still haven't gotten to Blood and Wine, but I'm pretty sure I'm near the endgame so shouldn't be too far.
Won't be playing The Witcher for a while now that Shadow of the Erdtree came out though.
Blood and wine is one of the best ones and it could have been a separate game same with this DLC.
Shadow of the Erdtree and B&W are pretty close. I still have to try B&W but I accidently went to Heart of Stones the last time I played.
@@nayyarrashid4661 Heart of Stones and Blood and Wine both are God Tier DLCs. Don't worry :P
Can wait for your stuff your missed series. Thats how I discovered your channnel. Those videos are really good and super funny and articulate.
This DLC is amazing. I've been glued to the TV since midnight haha
Dom: "I tried to make sure I had about 100 of everything before heading into the DLC."
Me: Has massive collection of almost every type of bone arrow, and tries to keep his collection of Thin Beast bones above 600... "Lightweight,"
You don't need to rest to respawn the glittering pot carriers, you can quit out and reload, they will spawn back in their spot and regular enemies will still be dead.
Playing SotE and HOLY SHIT bro, that first ring enemy was a fun surprise 😂 solid 10/10 for the DLC
Watching this video as I continue to build my fresh Guts Greatsword build (currently level 85) for a fresh start heading into the DLC. Gonna horde all the silver & gold foul feets, ghost glovewarts, rune arcs, and just stack up everything in my inventory. Gonna take things slow and steady to get the most out of the DLC rather than those who seem to be rushing in and wanting to tank. It still might be a week before I get to Shadow, but I feel the payoff will be worth it rather than just going in with build from a year or two years ago. Even playing the base game from scratch (no NG+) working towards what I know is going to be intense has completely changed the way I play it, and it feels fresh again.
What’s up Dom
I’ve never been happier when being lied to than when Miyazaki does it.
Big Thank you to everyone at FROMSOFT , truly epic.
I’ve Resub now that I have 6hrs and forgotten where I’ve picked things up.
You better come ready bc this will
“test your mettle.”
I Can’t wait for your lore videos, please bring’em soon
Quitting out vs resting. That is the way to go for things like the guys who disappear!
Thanks so much for this and your other videos Dom - you're always my go-to for ER tips and content! 🙌🏼
Going to get into the DLC tonight and tomorrow!!🥳🥳🥳
That intro was incredibly well said
The mimic headgear also increases discovery.
I absolutely love this dlc. Watched a walkthrough from a different channel, saw a lot of hate comments but i stand firm on my stance. Main gripe i saw was in regards to the ending....but hey, i have the dlc and since I'm at lv40, I'll be hopping in roughly 6 months from now since im an abysmal player atm...(Started playing VERY recently)😅
Thank you ! You covered a lot of unknowns mate, appreciate it! About to dive back in now 😅 good luck fellow tarnished! ✊🏾
I took my journey 6 lvl 297 into the dlc made it to messemer brought in my lvl 140 base new game and wow the difference! Anyone struggling on your high end character try option 2
Right off the bat I got stuck on Guts* for a little over an hour. It was very humbling and put me in a good mindset going forward. I also beat the Lion dancer and Rellana before I had to cut myself off to go to sleep lol
Been here since “Domtastic Gaming” & im so proud of you for your growth, recognition & thankful for you dedication to us all Dom! You deserve every bit of success coming your way brother!🫶🏾🤘🏾🔥
Thank you for everything & thank you for a seat at The Round Table 🙏🏾
Dude you've just made my day!!! Thank you so much for the kind words and positivity 🙏 🔥
I'm just about to buy the DLC. This helped! Subbed.
The refill on the flasks is sooo clutch
I love your things you might have missed series
Are there more Ancient stones, and stuff to build the new weapons to max? Good to hear there are more larval tears.
I am so excited and scared to come back. About to buy the dlc right now, 12:35am June 24th.
Such a legend! New fan here
exactly what I needed. Thank you
I’m assuming the difficulty spike comes after the first area. I been so busy exploring I haven’t been made it to a boss yet. But the basic enemies haven’t been too tough. They definitely hit HARD but if you’re patient it pays off.
Really lookin forward to the new "things you missed" for the dlc
First one coming out tomorrow! 🎉
Starting my ng + 7 dlc run haven’t played it at all yet, I am very ready to be humbled
Good vid I got home from vacation last night and am trying to muster up the energy to get out of bed and start the dlc today so your vids are holding me over until I eventually do so. Hopefully I’ll get my lazy up and play today but probably won’t be until tomorrow. Anyway another great vid keep up the good work brother
Ah, the joys of getting older. It feels weird not having the energy to do the leisure activity you used to do to relax.
That time of day mechanic is like demons souls tendancy system kind of. That's cool going to download the dlc after I get out the snowy area I just made it to. Dom you have great videos helped me get to the mountain top!
Just a random question. Has anyone else realised Kenneth haight and rya from Mt gelmir wear the same attire? Any ideas on the connection?
Right before I thought "okay, I want to listen to something in the background since I'm just running around these spooky grasslands" and opened up this video, I had just thought "what the heck, where's the new items tab?" Specifically because I kept forgetting to check all the new crafting materials to see if they said anything interesting. Anyway, turned the new items features on now!
Honestly as someone who only has 90 hours on any souls game ever, and that is Elden ring, the dlc isn't rly that hard in comparison to the base game, it's just a matter of learning patterns more than the damage u receive, never plan on getting hit and the damage difference doesn't matter
I literally had to bring my vigor up to 80 + crimson 3 + morgots great rune to handle these bosses. Bosses do soo much damage
Love your Elden Ring videos!
Spirit summons don't get used because they start costing a ton of fp when lvl'd up, i lvld a bunch of mine up and i can't even use them now, bac kto mimic tear.
