I think someone at FromSoft said it perfectly, “whatever level you are when you beat mohg and got there naturally” or something along those lines.
This is the way
That is the best way
Who said this?
This is the way
People who use duplicate glitches to max level are gonna be upset and likely won't even finish the dlc. Fantastic Miyazaki.
I think this attack power upgrade system Miyazaki was referring to being similar to Sekiro is gonna cap us after a certain point where level 150 is no different then 300 within the DLC area. Just my opinion.
EDIT - meaning they will gimmick something up where we only can do so much damage to enemies naturally, then we can raise attack by obtaining these upgrades. I don't know what will probably be something weird like "jars of Miquella's sweat" or some other sus sounding thing.
Dreamy bath water that cooked up while Miquey was waiting on us. Calling it now.
I agree! I'm just over leveling so I can use all the new weapons with max benefit! I don't think it'll matter what level you go in at. Except for the normal vitality checks they do lol
Everyone forgetting that this mechanic already existed before sekiro. Do y’all remember needing to grab giant souls to fight Vendrick in DS2?
@@insaneHollow Yeah you're absolutely right. I think so many people are citing Sekiro because that was the direct comparison Miyazaki made in a recent interview.
I have a feeling the level scaling won’t be very balanced in the dlc. Will either be too easy or ridiculously hard. I’m leaning towards it being easy if you did everything in the base game. I hope it’s challenging and not easy
The way to access the dlc IS the hint on what level you should be. A level that allows you to beat Mogh.
Just beat mohg at like 80, ill probably play the DLC on my 2 mains then do a fresh start run
That seems stupid to do for a game that has been out for two years. I doubt they expect people to restart their game to play the dlc, in fact that's exactly what Miyazaki said
@@Gmasterjoelio you basically stated a question and then answered it yourself, play the game how youd like, only thing stupid is basing what you do in single player game off of what some tard on the internet thinks
i struggle with this line of thinking because of the rise in RL1 playthroughs. people can beat radagon on RL1 if they’re skilled enough so it’s hard to really nail down the difference between RL and skill when it comes to beating mogh.
@@Gmasterjoelio I'm not loading up a 2 year old character I don't remember the build of to play the DLC, i'm either playing my most recent from like a month ago or starting fresh and using a new build I haven't done, probably fresh though as I want the new items to dictate my gear choices, and I don't want to be over leveled.
If for whatever reason the DLC still seems a bit too easy for you, you can just respec at Rennala and dump some levels into something you don't use. For example i'm level 163 with a +10 Bloodhound Fang, if i'm killing enemies too easily, i'm going to respec and dump a bunch of levels into Faith which I currently have ridiculously low.
The difficulty is not going to be based on level, Miyazaki knows that after 2 years most players still playing are overleveled and also the difference between levels amongst them is big. we are going to get level capped and through fighting bosses you can become stronger like In sekiro. No point in respec.
Does this work on level 713
Wow random 2J encounter. Περιμενω νε βγει το DLC για να σε δω να το παιζεις. Επισης πιστευω οτι θα ηταν καλω να κανεις ενα καινουριο playthrough του main game με νεο χαρακτηρα λιγες μερες πρην να βγει το DLC και αν θελεις το κανεις και livestream.
Bloodhound fang is lame AF
@@cionm7077 That means people with low level are going to suffer?
I didn't think of this until just now, but I'm happy the entrance is Mohg arena. I almost never get called to help with that fight in co-op, and imo he's one of the funnest bosses.
That's because Mohgwyn Palace is isolated from all the other matchmaking that occurs in the game for co-op. You can invade there from anywhere, but not co-op, it must be done locally. Travel to one of the graces and do near only co-op and you will definitely be summoned to help with Mohg.
Yeah, that second phase goes crazy
I helped over 100 people beat Mohg, definitely one of my favorites.
@@kimlee6643where did you get that from?
@@PracticallypreposterousSearch "Elden Ring 1.06" and you will find a page describing the changes for said patch, which included this much needed update of invading and sending signs universally. For co-op, an asterisk marks and describes that Moghwyn Palace, however, is singularly excluded.
Im gonna be doing it at lv72 with full melee build and no spirit ashes, could be a brutal journey but I'm looking forward to it
I've done low level runs and I can attest: on pure melee, your damage is still high enough, you just need damage resistance talismans to avoid potential one shots. Trust me, you'll feel a huge sense of relief when you finish that run.
@@enman009 i can already imagine the rush I'll get beating some bosses
Smartest approach IMO my friend, I want to be lower level so
1. things are difficult and rewarding
2. knowing we will get so many new weapons and classes I would like to have some levels to spend towards new weapon requirements
level 1 for me, it'll be fun i'm sure
That’s a smart method of approach because you’ll have plenty of levels to play around with as you go through the DLC. I think I’m going to do something similar at level 100 because I can basically beat the entire game at level 100, but i like to bring my characters up to 150-168 (for invasions) so I’ll still have 50-68 level ups to try out the new weapons
Man I was thinking about this the last couple days,I think 125 would be a sweet spot not to easy but not to hard where you would feel under leveled!
150 gang ------->
Seems solid that’s about the level you’ll be if you did all the optional content (excluding shitty catacomb dungeons)
3 gang ------------------------->
250 gang 😎
@@Bavari90250 is the perfect level imo
@@gamer_geek2638 it is.
I'm just excited to figure more of this tremendous story!
150-170 sounds good for me for the DLC, I cannot fucking wait!
Same, currently at 160, not planning to go any higher than that
It won’t matter the dlc will have its unique power system … if you can beat mohg as lvl one the dlc area will be about the same difficulty for either lvl only way to get op is to lvl up there
270
@@joaobosepintodiaz7832do y find some pvp Player With Level?
Everyone is going to get level capped so it won't matter
I can imagine a system similar to DS2 with Vendrik, where gathering certain items will decrease/increase stats in the game to make the player stronger or more effective against these DLC bosses
Considering you can get a +10 somber weapon with margit, godrick, and the volcano manor godskin as your only boss kills, you can kill mohg as early as like level 50 if you want to pump your damage stat.
200 is a cool number
the only reason I'm saying 150 right now is because of how pvp degenerates past that. Every build will be full-bull-goat-soft-swapping-caster-hybrid because stat req's become moot. 120-138 feels best to me currently so bumping up to 150 wouldn't be too much while still allowing for some growth.
@@saturnianlotus8343 sensible human being, a rare treat in zios comments
@@saturnianlotus8343yep I’m at 135 and I’d only go to lvl 150 max by end of dlc if need be. I think I’m on Ng+ also so the challenge will be there for sure.
On ng+2 lvl 200
200
Know your build and have your favorite weapons at +25 & +10. Get your vigor at 60 so you can take a big hit and still survive and your main offensive stat at 60-80.
I prefer 200 builds because I never feel like I’m missing out on that builds full potential.
idk I've always played at >20 vigor and now I've made a joke build with 50 and feels like I'm cheesing the game
I think 30 is enough not to die in a single hit like, ever
@@bnuymedia2537You’re just making the game more difficult for yourself on purpose
The average player is going to get hit more than 1 time, so saying that it’s “easy mode” is pretty disingenuous when not everyone plays the game the same
@@bnuymedia2537 Malenia can one shot something around 50-59 vigor with Erdtree's favor+2 with a grab attack (currently have 60, erdtree's favor+2 and barely survive if was grabbed at full HP), and same setup cannot tank full waterflow
Nice video as always, cheers from Germany
Nice, I remember commenting on your Twitter post about this. Glad to hear that 150 will be the intended level.
i was level ~160 when i finished my first run. im now on NG+4 and sitting around level 310. so honestly im not too worried about the dlc being a cakewalk since i've already made the game harder for myself. for those who're wondering, after a point i decided to balance my stats out so i could use just about every weapon in the game. i believe the last time i check i had about 50-55 levels in each stat.
thats a fun idea
I'm at around 230, I might start a new playthrough but that's what I'm chillin at for now
What build is that? I'm planning to use a pure melee lvl160, but I also want to use some spells.
I've got a few characters around this level. What I might do is respec at Rennala and make my build for 150 then dump the rest of the points into another skill I don't use on that character
That's kinda where I'm at it's better to stay at that level you may need the extra stats because damage can only be gained from bosses. Unless you want to PVP but I have 5 characters around 100-150
Same here man, I want to start a new playthrough but I also want to go in with all my awesome shit! Lol
@@enman009 mainly a melee build with some stats in int and mind if I wanna use spells
Great video dude, btw sekiro did have a level up system, it was a mask which was locked behind a quest and about 1/2 of the story.
My main is on ng+2 level 420. I will probably try it with that build so I can pick up and use any items/spells I find.
I also have builds ranging from 225-125 and inevitably the RL 1 run will happen.
I will be around 250 in NG+1. I'm a bit of a newbie in souls games but absolutely love it.
Ima do it at 170 cuz everytime I always beat the game around that level, somehow
My plan is to go in with all the upgrades , at level 130 , +24 normal dual wielding , and hopefully light rolling that way I’ll be end game but still have room to improve the character and git gud if need be.
+25 is too meta. +24 is where its at... i guess
I’ve completed 2 full playthroughs and I’m almost finished with my 3rd for the Ranni ending but I was around 200 give or take a few lvls for each completion.
I’m going in lvl 100 with +8/+20 weapons. I appreciate that we have a cool new levelling system but I still want to experience the progress of classic levelling, so I’ll have up to 50 levels to get in this DLC before I cap off.
Can't wait!!
I’m still debating starting a new playthrough now and go into NG+ and just get going on 6.21 once the DLC drops. Definitely doing a new starting build for it.
Great video! I rolled a Samurai to the mid 250’s and I am putting him on the bench for Shadow. Either going with a 135 bleed rogue, or 130 warrior strength build to get the full experience. Better to get your ass beat and savor the experience than steam roll everything.
I’m gonna go in at level 315. I’m on new game plus 3 and I was getting worked on at the end game parts of elden ring
Same, also ng+3 and around the same level. I'm going into DLC with my stats spread out to hit all soft caps and plenty of smithing stones so I can use whatever new weapons I find
I am at a very similar level, also NG+3
Same here. NG3 and my level is 350
This makes me feel so much better. I thought I was really terrible (and not just bad 🤣) when I was getting absolutely shredded at the end at level 220. I have always over-leveled any type of combat game......I'd rather melt bosses, than have to fight them 93x! Hahahaha.
Have fun getting one tapped by the bosses
I'm level 602 at Ng+17 with 650 hrs but I feel it won't be enough
I'm 618 NG+3 600hrs.
We're golden bro.
Enemies stop scaling after ng+7 so it is more than enough
what do you even do to get that high of a level and what is there to do???
@@malcadorthesigillite2541level 713 ng+6
@@00strodeyou don't have to re-spec to change your build
I'm going to be playing through the dlc with two characters, one at level 125, and one at level 90, the reason why i chose RL 90 is because I've had a few successful runs at RL 80 with completing the base game, only doing this to see if it's possible, otherwise, I can always take the time to grind the dlc for runes and level up there.
I’m 205 just starting ng+3, struggled with the last few bosses due to my melee only build but really excited to get into the dlc
This is really good information to know, because im level 210 right now and i dont want to stop leveling up. Im on new game plus and just got everything i want for the dlc. I went to new game plus for the sole reason that ive played this game for 500 hours collectively on multiple saves and have gotten so good at the game that i cant die unless its a death rite bird, the last 4 main bosses, malenia and mohg(ikr thats a lot of bosses to suck at and still be "good" at the game😂
I just want to make sure there is going to be malenia, maliketh and mohg level challenges in the dlc. I dont want to steam roll things all the time but i do still want to be a high level to use my weapons to their upmost abilities.
One thing I never here mentioned is that if ur worried about being over levelled, u can respec ur character to be a “jack of all trades”… that way u won’t be too powerful, but u can also experience all the different builds without having to respec
I was thinking of doing something similar in New game + i am very traditional, shield and claymore, no more, but I was starting to increased those stats for dlc, but, it is not a bad Idea to be "Mogh level" main attributes, and the rest just for defenses, and, in new game plus, play as a JoOT, O was thinking of play that way in NG+ but now I think it would be kind of stale
You're absolutely right, thinking about the level of your character is the wrong way to think about it since all items scale on only 2 or 3 stats. If a level 400 has 99 Intel and 99 dex but running a strength faith build, it just means he is roughly at the power level of a lvl 202, but he can switch build when he wants and be more flexible in his game play
The only true answer to that question is not what level your character is, but in what NG+ your character is. I have one char lvl 330 in NG+7 and i don't want to experience the DLC in NG+7, damages from any mobs or boss are too F stupids + they have crazy HP pool. It's very challenging and i dont want to do that for my first run into it
@@wzz7380would you say experiencing the dlc in ng2 at level 207 would be fine?
There is one reply to a comment here I saw that pointed out something really smart. They mention how in DS2 there are Giant Souls which determine how effective you are at damaging Vendrick. Yes, it is functionally similar to Sekiro's attack power. But in terms of lore, it might be similar to how DS2 does it. Maybe in the DLC, we'll get something relating to Miquella that will help deal damage in the Land of Shadows. It could even be something like the cut content dream mist item. This could encourage non-combat exploration and maybe make use of the sleep mechanic which is hardly used in the main game - both by players and enemies.
Two of this games biggest things are rewarding exploration and build variety. Some builds are going to naturally feel stronger than others going into the expansion, but if you dont beat main and optional bosses via exploration, you wont acquire damage multipliers (attack power) to scale your build to what i assume will be a gradual jump in health and difficulty with the bosses.
I have 3 lvl 140 characters that I'm keen to take into the DLC my curiosity is how new weapon types will fit into those pre determined builds. That'll be the most fun to find out. I have a Spellsword Vergil from Devil May Cry, a Lightning Dex sellsword and a straight up Guts/King Gaiserik build with mostly strength but a lil bit of faith and a crossbow.
What I like to do, to keep it challenging at a high level, I max out Arcane to have a higher drop rate on items, while not rocking an Arcane build. So lets say I run a pure STR build, I max out Arc, put a lot of points in END, and the minimum reqs for my weapons
i think I will go into the dlc on ng+7 diff and lvl 713 to enjoy all the new builds
Very informative in how to approach the DLC.
i had a ng+ 8 account but im starting fresh and going to the dlc on a new build
i'm gonna go to the dlc with my level 1 save then i'll do another run with a mage around level 100 and another with incantation around level 100 too
Im going to go in at max level on ng+7 but I will not be using broken things to get a harder experience and that I could try every weapons and spells
Do you think ng+ will affect the difficulty at all? I started a new character so I’ll be going in fresh. I would like to use main but it’s on ng+7
Which level you should be depends on your build, since some builds require more levels than others. But I agree with the person who said that whatever level you are at when beating Mohg is good.
setting up a FTH/DEX & STR/INT round 100 to give myself a nice spread, taking two plates to the buffet
I’m aiming for a lvl 10/20-23 level weapon and 150-170 lvl. I don’t have a lot of time to struggle so this should be good to have a good experience.
I’m gonna clear out limgeave, caeild, leyndell, Liurnia, underground areas and Mogh’s area
I have to 2 characters one that’s end game (beat all bosses optional & mandatory just haven’t chose an ending) & another that still has mohg, malenia, Radagon & Elden Beast! Both are around levels 120 so I believe I’ll tackle the expansion on reg new game first then ng plus right after so I can start with whichever cool new weapon I find & want to use from the dlc!
There is one fromsoft dlc that did something similar already, the dark souls 2 dlc where ypu can free one or more knights to help you fight the Burnt Ivory King. That was kinda like a ingame difficulty slider by eksploration.
And of course the giant's souls as a dmg boost against Vendrick.
I'm going first with a dex faith build just below 150. Depending on what kind of items I find in the dlc I have 3 other characters with various builds. Strength/Arcane bleed, Int/Faith spell caster, and a jacked level 365 dragon cultest. That last character is on ng+7
I have characters at 80, 115, 125, and 130, probably will be playing my 125 build first, although pushing one of them to 150 is tempting for a tiny bit more build freedom! looking forward to experimenting with new weapons !
Prolly around 150-160 I appreciate you explaining the whole attack power concept I never played Sekiro so I wasn’t sure what it meant it’ll be nice to another benefit to roaming and exploring the new map other then just to soak all the new content in
What if im on NG8? Will the dlc level up as we progress on ng+? I started a new character to be around 200 on the first olay through when the dlc releases just in case.
I'm gonna try and go in with my first playthrough character that ended their run on NG++ at level 69, I might end up backing out to a higher level character if it feels impossible and save that file for a challenge later, but I wanna see if I can do this, it was the file I first beat Malenia on without spirit ashes at that level so I want to see if I can keep pushing the challenge for fun. Crossing my fingers I haven't forgotten everything when I drop back in!
Im going in at level 300, I like being able to use every weapon, I am running st trina’s sword sleep build, I feel its going to be very viable in the dlc
If you are NG+3 or beyond, good luck
I have a 125 for pvp a 150, 180, 205 and 305 so I’m good. I will use my high lvl for the first run so I can test weapons, figure out what I like then run my pvp build through for those said weapons.
Can't wait to play
Will your ending in the base game affect the DLC? Like the Frenzied flame ending, where Melina is kinda pissed at you? Because she is supposed to tell you where to enter the DLC etc.
I think I might just start a new character and see how quickly I can bum rush it to the DLC. And that's the level I'll play it at. I also want to try and only use the new weapon types in the DLC. But we'll see if that's possible.
The character I’m going to use first is currently level 243 and I’m still working on them. I want my stats to be as high as possible so I can pick up a new toy and immediately play with it; everything looks too cool to not try!
I just made a new build in preparation for the dlc, I'm going in as low level as I can possibly manage, I'm going to try around level 60 or so.
I haven't played Elden Ring in almost two years so I cant wait to start up a new playthrough in preparation for the DLC.
I'm gonna run through at with my lvl 138. I want to see if the Golden PvP lvl bracket is chill with the DLC, I would be quite pleased.
Imma try and make a new build to go through the game before the DLC drops. My intention is to stop levelling at 125, so if stuff seems too hard at the start, I can level up 150 but I won't accidentally trivialise the early parts of the dlc.
How much of the story should you do though like will melina have dialogue despite potentially burning/ leaving you will while Miyazaki said it won't effect the main story that doesn't mean it won't give a new ending or change optional content in the main game like new gidion dialogue
I’m starting a fresh run a week or two before the dlc. Hope to be around 125-150 by the time it drops
I’m just now levelling a new character until I reach 150 for the dlc and have a solid build to start and take it on. But I’m also going to get my lvl 180 NG+ character close behind and just see what feels better 😊
There was this one time when I was summoned to help level 25 player to beat Godskin Duo in Farum Azula... so much for optimal leveling, lol :D
I have 9 builds ready in-between 125-150. I have a magic build w dmgs. I have a str/faith build with crucible weapons. I have a lightning and fire build. A dex/ magic build a pure str build and a frost gravity build and a dexbuild. The last spot will be a str/arc or dex/arc build
You think if I have already beat the game I’ll have to restart to do the DLC? Or will I just be able to travel to Mohgs palace and start?
I’m doing another play through on my first NG+ right now. I’m currently level 182 and plan on being 190-200 by the time I’m DLC ready. I think that should put me in a pretty comfortable spot
What im currently doing in preparation for the dlc is having 3 + different playthroughs ready. Each focused on a specific build. (dex/strength, faith/strength, intelligence/strength, etc). I get my character to around level 130 doing most major bosses except malenia, placidusax, and maliketh + everything that comes after him. So when I beat the dlc I can beat the rest of the base game with whatever I come out of the dlc with. Ensuring im prepared with lots of smithing stones and larval tears for whatever the dlc gives us. Although doing it this way has its downsides. Considering most of my final bosses are fire giant, godskin duo, and commander neil, is a bit unfortunate because those bosses suck imo. But it will be worth it for the dlc!
Whatever level I’m at when I get back to Mohg’s palace in NG+. I’m not too fussed about making it too easy, that upgrade system seems neat
I'm gonna be about 360. So that way I can experience almost ALL of the DLC and weapons at max benefits in one go. I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to play through it 8 times back to back. But when I do decide to come back to it, I'll know what is there, what Stats I'll need to use whatever I want to use. And I'll play through it naturally.
I have a strength 125 build I just defeated the EB on and didnt roll credits on because I thought they might give us a different ending... I guess I wont get a new ending but that is probably what I am going to do the DLC with. 125 felt decent enough on Mogh. I just hope fromsoft doesn't troll us all and you lose a questline or something if you kill Mogh lol
I used to cap at 150 but after doing many invasions I’ve come to love 168. It’s the sweet spot imo. Enough to split into two main stats but not enough to be a master of all.
Will there be another location to respect in the DLC with a new NPC or will we have to exit it and go back to Raya Lucaria in case we wanna change our build?
Do you think it would be more fun to take my lv250, 200+ hour, ng+7 character through the dlc or start a new character and get around level 80 ish, I want to have a good challenge and idk which will be more fun tbh
I hope they add a boss mode like the gauntlets they had in Sekiro! Some kind of boss rush/gauntlet mode of some kind. I'll be goin into the DLC with a 150 character, now I just don't know if it will be an established and stacked out character or a completely new playthrough that I will start a month or so before the DLC drops...
Will there be more levels to level up or is it max level as it is in the dlc?
I have a lvl 130 strength build save file where i beat the game but i didn’t start ng+ yet i‘ll probably use that one
Well i done ng++ to get all endings for the achievements and i was way overpowered. Sure i was level like 300 or 350 or something crazy as i farmed a good bit to beat malenia on my first run. But i havent played the game since getting all achievements which was a couple months after the initial release so probabably will do a whole new playthrough and try stay at a reasonable level
It's a June release, so I might take one of the lower level characters to >90 and then test the DLC for damage. If too low, level into meta. If I play the character an hour per day, that's +100h of progress - way more than enough to get ample equipment and resources. I have my first character at rl175 in NG+1, but I think the balance is kinda whack. Again, will test in the DLC. It'll be fine.
Miyazaki said it would be around Mohg’s palace level. I completed the game easily at 125. PvP meta’s at 125. I’d definetly stay there until further notice.
Plus Miyazaki in the same interview said there would be an alternate levelling strategy that won’t affect your current level
If it works like that, 'attack' progression, then I'd be really happy. I've honestly haven't done a new character since I've been trying to collect all the items. I'm on like new game +6 or 7, not sure my exact level. I honestly didn't really like the start of the game and don't want to go through it that 'weak' again. Hopefully there aren't any side quests that are added that are tied to the main story, so I don't have to go into a new NG+. My most recent game I've beaten the Haligtree and Mogh's palace. I think I was doing Farum Azula but not close to finishing it. So I should be able to get started with the DLC as it comes out, as long as there weren't side quests.
Before the DLC drops I would like to have my main character and a new one I recently created to be ready to go into the DLC
I'll go in at around 120. I have 3 characters ready at that level, and then I also have a level 99 character (if 120 is too much) where I just rushed through the game to get the frenzy flame ending and the platinum trophy
I have a level 80, 125, & 150 ready to go. I was attempting a base level wretch, but I got too frustrated lol
I have a 240 in ng+ and two are around 150. Although now I’m able to usually beat it around level 80/90
Damn. Just spent the last couple days farming all my finished playthrough’s up to around level 200-230 in preparation for the dlc to get those build’s main attack stats up to 80. I can’t tell if that’s gonna make it easier though, considering my health is floating around 40-50. Oh well, just gotta make some new builds
♥ Hi Zios, I don't know where to leave that info/theory to you on the DLC but here it is. I believe the Elden Ring symbol we find in the Maliketh boss room is the Elden Ring state before Marika's age. What we believe being roots in it are probably more somehow related to the Omen curse horns than to roots from a tree itself. We do not find the "roots" on the actual Elden Ring because Marika would have remove it/hide it just like she did with the "shadow realm". At the end, probably this old Elden Ring is the whole version of it. Hope you enjoy the theory.
Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but this sounds a bit like the "Giant Souls" in Dark Souls 2, and how it changed how much damage you did to Vendrick. By having a feature associated with the level of "shadow" (or "light") you've gathered, the DLC would become easier as you overcome the "resistances" of enemies.
what worries me is the weapon upgrading. are we supposed to buy stones for it before entering it or are the new weapons atteched to the new system and we dont need to upgrade at all and only when we bring the weapons out of the base game then upgrade is nesseceri, the first one sounds a lot more annoying not gonna lie but it could be those new weapons are upgraded by dlc metarials so
I'm just getting all my characters to lvl 120-150
