    You’re not playing the game wrong, fromsoft just gives multiple ways to play the game. You can memorize enemy movesets or you can memorize enemy weaknesses. Both are difficult, just in different ways.

    Is not that Fromsoft does a poor job at explaining, is that they expect players to explore and experiment.
    If a player only does one thing and is having a hard time, its on them. We are given the tools to overcome the games, its up to the player how to do it Also using the healing miracle do damage to the undead.

      I suck at games. I finished every boss in base Elden Ring. Some were hard. I played through the first half of the DLC before the player buffs were patched in… I didn’t think it was too hard. I thought it forced player experimentation which is great because by endgame you should have a lot of options to play with.

      I mean the thing that sux and goes against experimenting is the fact that you have to grind for a lot of things.
      Like lets say you have x weapon and whatever you do its just not working but you got another that might be better but its not leveled up.
      To level it up you need stones and runes lots of it.
      They should have made it so you can remove upgrades from a weapon and get stones back even if its without runes.
      Then different weapons require different character stats so you cant use it fully....that's a lot of runes needed to change course.
      So far feels like every boss I beat I managed to beat because I was overleveled for it.
      Btw fck patches....lost 19k runes cuz of his betrayal...

    I used to be a one build player, but playing the DLC made me want to use all the new stuff so now I have an arsenal I carry round with me for different situations. I have Falx and Rellana twin swords for bosses (depending on bleed resistances), Dragon Hunters Great Katana for when I come across any dragons. A great shield for general exploring as it's great for dealing with tougher mobs like Fire Knights. A seal for some buffs and utility incantations. A big holy mace for when I need blunt or holy damage.
    It honestly changed the way the game felt for me, I don't find myself hitting any brick walls anymore as I always have an answer for every type of enemy.

      A bit slow here.... but this is the problem with smithing stones in particular.
      Of course, to not require stones at all means that, like the DLC, even more treasure would be garbage. Finding a new level of stone is exciting on a first playthrough.
      So many "treasures" of the DLC are stones after everyone already has the bell-bearings which is of course "dung".
      But the game is missing something between "I found a higher level of stone" and "bell-bearing" which is why it's so much harder to use multiple weapons in the main game, especially if you aren't using somber weapons. Which is a bit weird because you'd think the somber weapons would be "special".

      @@carnageasada1 Well, plenty of somber weapons are super powerful.
      Somber weapons just take 1 stone at each of 10 levels. Smithing weapons take several stones and have 25 levels. So it takes about 10 somber stones but 100 smithing stones... but the game does't give you 10x more smithing stones.
      So an int build can go meteorite staff (no upgrades), wing of astel, moonveil, regal scepter without much issue... heck, there's room to level up 1-2 other weapons too... death's poker, darkmoon greatsword and maybe the bastard's stars to deal with rock/crystal enemies. So much good somber stuff for int builds.
      Someone just trying to power stance smithing weapons is probably going to have to go farm smithing stones. Heck, just trying to level ONE smithing stone weapon is a hassle unless you're doing a lot of side content (or, of course, know where to look already)

    Miyazaki has done this perfectly by providing a lot of ways to get through the famous "git good".

    I take out the correct weapon for the situation. I mean, I usually have a favorite weapon that I'm using most of the time when I'm walking around, and that I'll switch that out at times to try out different ones, but for specific things I'll bring out specific weapons, and if I run into anything tougher than usual in the field, I'll look up what it's weak to and adjust my weapons to fit. And for bosses, I look them up first and absolutely pick my weapons, spells, talismans, everything to best fit that enemy.
    But that fits my usual playstyle -- I look things up a lot and don't just walk into things and get surprised. I'm about to start on the DLC and I'm going to try that more "cold" -- no walkthroughs and not looking things up about an area ahead of time. But I'll probably still be looking up bosses when I know I'm walking into a boss fight, and at the very least, I'll be looking up bosses and other tougher enemies after I fail at the first blind attempt.

      Also, there are a ton of enemies you can totally sneak up on and just poison mist to death. Assassin's Gambit makes that even easier. If they're not moving before you get close, and you can get behind them without being seen, and they are at all able to be poisoned, then you can do that. Poison mist and freezing mist both can be used without alerting unaware enemies to your presence at all, even when frostbite procs. It's slow but sure. Nothing wrong with the stealth approach when you can get away with it. Full grown fallingstar beast, draconic tree sentinel, some of the crucible knights... it can even be done to Malenia (there's a recent cheese video that shows how to poison mist her through her first phase and then do a crit on her while she's still poisoned in order to skip all or most of her second phase). Totally legit.

    From Software games are to be approached like a puzzle, you need to figure out what is working best for you and the situation you are facing. If you ever dive in other of their games outside of the "soul" series (and even in those games playing this way is better), you immediately understand that. Just recently AC6 was a good proof of that with all the rage against the "filter"...
    Most people refuse to adapt their builds (that does not mean changing your points !), change their gears, adapt their skills/defensives/talismans and use consumables. I will never understand that. Why limit yourself to 1 loadout when you have hundreds of armors and weapons ? Yes, your stats and build could limit you into some specific kind of gears, but even then you still have most equipment available. With my build I still carry over 20 weapons with me at all time, to adapt or just changing ashes of war after a failed try.
    And of course, cherry on the top, PNJ summons and Spirit Ashes are to be banned and only for "losers", most refuse to use just "because" and then proceed to complain the game is too hard or unfair. Ok.
    Ever have a hard time and you do not feel like hitting your head against a wall for hours ? Just give your mimic a hammer with Prayerful Strike AoW, some pots (depending on enemy weakness) and Uplifting Aromatic.

    I didn't really learn the value of swapping weapons for weaknesses until I got entirely fed up fighting Burial Watchdogs that just won't die. Hwne I looked up their resistances and stuff, literally the ONLY thing that hurt them are Strike weapons, typically maces. And my god was that effective one I actually started using them. Bonus is that catacombs are almost always filled with Imps, an enemy that I loathe, but they have nil defense against maces. So an upgrades Holy mace works double to tackle most things underground in the base game. Was a true eye opener.
    TO further teinforce this, Miners of any variety have 80% absorbtion against physical damage sources, except maces which are only 35%. And their magic/holy resistances is half that of any other school.
    In short: Bring a holy mace/Hammer and shield into mini dungeons with you. You will need them :p

    "is this how you're supposed to play?"
    YES! USE THE TOOLS THE GAME GIVES YOU! USE THE CONSUMABLES! CRAFT ITEMS! SUMMON SPIRITS! COOP FOR RUNE ARCS! use everything and you dont have problems. my pure faith build has 12 strength to use maces as a main weapon and even then i kept a piercing (the starting spear) and slash weapon (just an axe honestly) just in case.
    like okay sure if your one shot build works it works, but eventually you're gunna run into a wall. say the enemy is highly resistant to your damage type, or it's hard to hit jump attacks on. swap it up, use a backup.

    My first playthrough I was using a faith strength build with mostly faith. That taught me to switch affinities on my weapon because I delt zero damage to some bosses. On my last mage playthrough I kept a wider range of spells available to counter enemies. Frost to increase physical damage on enemies prone to that, Big hammer for enemies with high poise (great against those crystalians) and a few other spells for magic prone enemies. Feels less like hitting your head repeatedly against a wall.

In the base game, I never needed to care about my own resistances, but in the DLC I was using different armor sets, incants and spells to boost the correct resistances, and it helped significantly with dmg. In an area with a lot of frenzy, I went in with 500 focus and 65 fire res without any buffs.

    Honestly, all the weaknesses and stuff makes playing the game Vagabond-style really appealing. Sword and board with 3 good str/dex weapons of each type, put enough points into int and faith so you can wield the most basic spells. 25 FTH gives you Vow, Strength and cleanse, saving you all those boluses. 22 int gives you glintblade phalanx and a host of lesser useful spells, like Gravity Well to counter all those annoying birds in Farum. Assuming you start the most popular choice, samurai, that's 30 lvls of points to collect before you can split as you prefer. really not a big deal for all the benefit it gives.

    This is one reason this game is so well-designed. You can develop reflexes or knowledge (or both, obviously). Even without a respec, a simple load-out change can improve your chances in various areas or against certain bosses.
    Here's an example: I simply can't roll all three of Elden Beasts holy wave attacks. At least one always catches me, and it is usually the third attack with the extra delay. However, if I use a greatshield with very high holy protection, with a reasonable amount of stamina, I can block my way through all three attacks. Interestingly, the delay before the third attack is just long enough if you stop blocking to restore your stamina for that third attack. What that means is that the very thing that makes dodging so much harder - that extra delay before the third attack - is what makes blocking a viable option. There is no chance that that is just a coincidence - it is clearly by design.

    Elden ring was the first souls game I ever played, so I didn't have any pre -conceived Ideas on how to play the game. For example I had no idea that rolling made you invincible for a certain amount of time, I thought it was just a way of getting away from attacks so the hit box would miss you. The idea of rolling into an attack seemed so stupid and it wasn't until sometime after Godrick that I learnt how to dodge-roll properly. I was shocked to learn that people didn't jump, use consumables, or change their weapons for different enemy types. I had a night-rider flail that I would change the ash of war on for undead(holy) or mines/crystal tunnels/catacombs (magic) - only upgraded it when I had spare smith stones or after I got the area bell-bearing. Made those areas too easy!
    The other mechanic I would recommend is the backstep - not sure if it has i-frames; but it has a unique counter attack if you light attack after backstepping. Works especially well on small dogs when they do that bite lunge thing thing twice in a row, and it always staggers you. You back step his first and second bite then light attack for the unique counter attack. Makes them so much easier to deal with. In fact - if you see an enemy that uses smaller blades - e.g. daggers, claws, fists or even short swords; back-steps can be very effective. I used them against Narius and destroyed him before Yura even showed up.

    A lot of games people dont learn how to play right because they use cheats, cheese or play on easy. Sometimes if you play on the hardest setting w no cheats you are forced to learn how to play correctly or quit.

    Talismans are huge in this game! That includes bombs, long range weapons (bows and crossbows). Combining and mixing builds and weapons is what makes Elden Ring amazing!

    I use a shield 🛡️ to eat and tank boss hits. Some roll, some jump. Everyone has their own play style and some don’t use shields. That’s the beauty of Elden Ring. 🫡

    I'm first time from software(elden ring) player and switching weapon depending on enemy type was obvious for me fro the start. Even swiching between my big dmg halberd to unupraged bonk stick againt skeletons make so big difference that it was crazy.
    All from software game are made to be cheased. Thats why it its posible in so many cases to one shot bosses or kill them from outside of arena etc.

    Souls game has always been a "use everything, adapt situations" kind of game. Even Miyazaki said he uses spirit ashes and clear the game no issue. End of the day it's gamer and tryhard's ego gatekeeping the game for most others. You can play it naked like a challenge if you want, but why deny and nullify others' progress just because they use X and Y. It's a freaking game
    Also why alot of good pvpers actually go all rounder stats build so they can swap weapons on the fly to trick opponents, unless they building something specifically.

    @vincentkeith5259 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Is this how? Yes. Yes it is. I always have a sacred blade weapon available. I slice through Death birds, Mariners, and I never have to panic swing at the floor to try and hit that stupid resurrecting skelly. I carry a gravitas sword for mobs hiding around corners or rats on the roof or in the tower of Madness, it's also great with bats. I always have a hammer (Morning Star - then Great Stars) for strike damage (usually with Sacred Blade).
    There is no cheezing - there is only strategy. They give me no breaks, I give them none. And no, I'll probably never get Gud enough for a no hit boss (I have had a few but it was more luck/strategy than skill) let alone a no hit run. My parry is pathetic.

    It's because of legacy knowledge that's why it's a trap. It gets you in the door A LOT easier but it punishes you if you outright refuse to adapt to anything. It's why a lot of people got mad because they played the older game the same way and then thought it would fly here and it kinda doesn't.

    Just play it like its a Zelda game and it will be easy. Play it like a souls game and it will be harder. Both are valid it just depends on what you want, you aint a noob for using either one its more of a self curated difficulty slider/challenge run. Basically you just choose whether you want to get trough by skill or by intellect or a combination of the two neither approach makes you a bad player. I for one dont use the jumping because i just don't like how it looks in the fight but that wont be a problem for some people and that doesn't matter just play how you wanna.
    Im doing this now in DS1 because I have over 1k hours in it and if I just stick to fast rolling I will beat it with muscle memory alone so sometimes I intentionally go for a fat roll with a weapon that isin't always max upgrade(max upgraded for that section)

    lol, elden ring really is Ds2 2, my habits for ds2 was to bring a poke and a bonk, the poke for enemies without armor, the bok for armor.
    i didnt use lightning but fromsoft really likes making things that dont resist it too well lol
    even looking glass knight in ds2 is supposed to be strong against lightning, but hes standing in the rain so his defenses are average lol
    but yeah, honestly, a thing ds2 and elden ring have in common: upgrade materials are really easy to get so youve got plenty of room to experiment or build a small arsenal to toy around with
