@@Mumps999 Miquellas fate involves the stars because of what he is trying to do to revive his older brother. At castle sol during the eclipse. This was all a theory in the Vaati lore video about miquella.
I created a new character for dlc last month. When I finished the game for the first time, I played a faith/strenght crucible knight. Now im rocking a dragon communion build and it is going great!
Dragon Communion magic is a lot of fun. Mowing down a big group of enemies with a dragon breath spell, especially Placidusax's Ruin, is just so satisfying
I just finished a build, but now i'm going again, and i'm doing my first magic build. But when the DLC comes out im gonna play it with my dual rapier build. That one is my favorite.
The girl in teh red dress in the trailer seems to have the same moveset and the matriarch in the convergence mod. And fextralife YT channel covered this trailer talking about weapon classes as well
The girl in the red dress looks like a dancer, maybe she's related to the Blue Dancer who taught Malenia, except obviously this lady is a Red Dancer. Tanith is also a dancer from a foreign land, so it could be related to her somehow... In any case, I want the red lady's armor set!
Since the DLC is Miquella focused, I'm gonna do a split Intelligence and Faith build with the Halo Scythe and Miquellan Knight Sword as my melee weapons, all of those Ring of Light fundamentalist incantations as my magic, and maybe some sleep stuff to reference St. Trina. Or I could do a Mohg cosplay build, since Miquella is his and his alone, apparently.
Hello! Love your videos! Firstly, I'm one of the nerds who LOVES the lore. Video game lore is a huge interest of mine and Elden Ring has some amazing lore. Second, I'm excited as well for the 8 new weapon classes. I'm curious how many were options they has to remove from the core game and save for another time and how many are based off the popular weapon choices from the core game. Like the katanas are super popular so they are now adding a super katana class to the game 😄
Maybe here is a connection between 5he sekiro power scaling and 8 new weapon classes. Maybe the npcs teach us a power only accessible from the tree or Miquellla's teachings? Just a thought..
Dude, I thought I was crazy when I realized two things NPC voices are super low, and there really is no ambient sounds. You should turn up your master volume and lower the other ones while keeping voice the same. That will help you without having to raise and lower windows volume!
honestly, id do an everyman build! well, not really a build.. but just boost every stat to a good softcap so you can use everything effectively (ex. vigor 40 attunement 30 endurance 25 strength 55 dex 55 int 60 fai 60 arc 50 obviously not SUPER accurate but... just use enough so you can basically use anything youd like, since theres gonna be so much to try! although if you wanna go for just a regular build, best bet is probably just a quality build, so you'll at least be able to use most of the physical weapons
@prohikikomo if hes like me he will feel like focusing more when the damage is so meh and hes not using one or two of those stats at one given moment and knows itd be better focused. Why not just be level 300
I'm doin' the same thing right now, getting a new character ready so I'm not too overleveled or underleveled I want to assume a good level is maybe around 150 or 175
Id say 110 to 125 would be a the perfect level. I always felt like the games are balanced around 125, and 110 leaves some room for Meeting requirements of weapons you find and want to use in the dlc
@@janebtar2167 Actually yeah, now that I think about it you're right. The other games have around like a 100 to 125 level requirement Well, it's not required but moreso suggested
@@Kamo500yeah, if you're experienced with souls games I wouldn't recommend going into the dlc with some overpowered character. First playthroughs of souls are something special, and steamrolling everything can really Rob you of that experience
We don't know how it actually works, but they have said being really high level won't matter. But i really don't understand how it wouldn't, but that's what they have said.
Yeah well, that amount of time is normal if you have already beaten the game multiple times. It takes me 30 hours to beat the game with a new build. But obviously if you have never played the game before, it's gonna take you way more than 30 hours. My first time ever playing it took me 90 hours to beat it.
Yeah, honestly, it's whatever playstyle you want. Each starting class has it's strengths. I just restarted with a new Strength and Faith build with the Confessor. My very first was a straight Melee build with the Knight, and that was a complete grind from start to finish, so I would NOT recommend that. But, just to make your decision easier, later in the game, you will find items that allow you to completely relevel and redesign your character (which you can do as many times as Larval Tears you find), so, even if you decide you don't like your build, but don't want to restart the game, you are not stuck with it. You can customize you character to whatever you desire.
I Did multiple builds for the DLC at different levels. It was fun but now i'm dying to play elden ring and I have "nothing new" to play with. I Think I'm going to run a "Use Every Weapon in The Game" Build vig:45 (50) mnd:10 end:14 (19) str:30 (40) dex:35 (48) int:38 fth:30 arc:27 + Radagon Soreseal/Millicent/Starscourge talisman/Okina Mask With This I get a chance to use prety much everything the DLC has to offer. but that 50 Vig with Soreseal is gonna be a pain
Well u could always farm the Palace Approach Road with wave of gold for level 300 with umm gold pickled feets and,,, the gold scarab if your in ng+ or further its pretty fast neways i know summoning your mimic is like so not gangsta but you can have the mimic AND high levels its funner than trying to be friends with freaks
Lol yeah i didnt think of that. Cause we cant start at the dlc. So if you have a dex build going into the dlc, your stuck with using dex stuff. Unless... they have a new larval tear thing that we can use. If not that will definitely be annoying.
@@Samuel-sg2iv Yes! I usually do this stupid build on first playthroughs to get a hold of the game and stuff, but for the DLC all my builds are done! Thank Myazaki it's somewhat viable to have a stupid build like this and still play the game
You have to kill Radan for lore reasons. Hes holding the stars which in return stops fate like ranni. He needs to be killed to resume miquellas fate.
Are you sure it was stopping everyone’s fate? I thought it was only stopping Rannis fate because she was the lunar princess and Rennala’s daughter.
Agreed, lore wise that's what makes sense. And in castle sol the ghost says they're waiting for an eclipse for miquella
No, it only stopped Ranni's fate because Ranni's fate is intertwined with the stars which Radahn held back.
@@Mumps999 Miquellas fate involves the stars because of what he is trying to do to revive his older brother. At castle sol during the eclipse. This was all a theory in the Vaati lore video about miquella.
@@Mumps999I assume radahn holds the fate of all empyreans including ranni and miquella.
It's so interesting and entertaining watching a godlike player playing the game like the first time, much love gino!
i love it when gino is just playing the game chill. this is great! do it more!

Crucible Knight is such a fun and versatile build…also a Melania destroyer 😮
I did the exact opposite, my first started off as a bleed build to a bleed dragon communion combo, my dlc character is a strength faith paladin
I just finished a build, but now i'm going again, and i'm doing my first magic build. But when the DLC comes out im gonna play it with my dual rapier build. That one is my favorite.
I'm so hyped, I'm playing convergence now and loving it, and I hope they took some inspiration from it, the new spells and weapons are fun as hell

"Buttvirgin" ROFL that Viewers Name got me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I play for the story as well. I quite enjoy it.

Size wise, idk Limgrave is both east and west and may include Weeping peninsula as it's a sub-region of Limgrave. That's pretty large.
Did he notice the great rune that appeared in the trailer?
Just started my Zweilander build for DLC, I have an optimized first playthrough build, and the op strength arcane build😂
Mind sharing that optimized zweihander build?
Maybe here is a connection between 5he sekiro power scaling and 8 new weapon classes. Maybe the npcs teach us a power only accessible from the tree or Miquellla's teachings? Just a thought..
I’d be happy buying dlc that is just weapons spells and art and ashes etc
I should learn to parry
Dude, I thought I was crazy when I realized two things NPC voices are super low, and there really is no ambient sounds. You should turn up your master volume and lower the other ones while keeping voice the same. That will help you without having to raise and lower windows volume!
Ive got my ng6 bonk build ready to go.
Just finishing up my dex build this week
I've played almost every build so i still can't decide what to do for the DLC 😭
honestly, id do an everyman build! well, not really a build.. but just boost every stat to a good softcap so you can use everything effectively
(ex.
vigor 40
attunement 30
endurance 25
strength 55
dex 55
int 60
fai 60
arc 50
obviously not SUPER accurate but... just use enough so you can basically use anything youd like, since theres gonna be so much to try!
although if you wanna go for just a regular build, best bet is probably just a quality build, so you'll at least be able to use most of the physical weapons
@prohikikomo if hes like me he will feel like focusing more when the damage is so meh and hes not using one or two of those stats at one given moment and knows itd be better focused. Why not just be level 300
Im gonna get a few characters ready to go with different builds. First new weapon I find that suits a build Ill pick up
@@unuseableb Same
I have a few builds not on NG+ like duel scythes arcane, pure pyromancy and a bonk build so i'll go in with them first
Back to the roots. Sword and shield with square off and parry. No gimmicks, no fancy weapon arts. Thats what I do
I'm doin' the same thing right now, getting a new character ready so I'm not too overleveled or underleveled
I want to assume a good level is maybe around 150 or 175

@@Samuel-sg2ivthe new attack damage system he was talking about, your levels won’t affect how much damage you do I bet, just your 3 bars.
I’m stopping at lvl 120 you should too Gino
2:50:00 good advice 😅
❤❤❤
The man himself also said that the game would take about 30 hours to get through. He is notoriously modest.
Yeah 30 hours totally how long it took me 😅
Yeah well, that amount of time is normal if you have already beaten the game multiple times. It takes me 30 hours to beat the game with a new build. But obviously if you have never played the game before, it's gonna take you way more than 30 hours. My first time ever playing it took me 90 hours to beat it.
@@Samuel-sg2iv exactly my point good sir
Will you have to start a new character for the DLC or not? Cause he says preparation, so I am assuming you do not.
no you won't need a new character. you will have to have progressed the story far enough that you have beat mohg tho.
@@zawmbeeonly Mohg? or also Elden Beast? Cause I started NG and deleted my completed save file on accident.
So in your opinion what class is the best to start with?
Whichever class looks most fun to you. Unless you're planning a highly optimized pvp build the starting class isn't that important 👍
Yeah, honestly, it's whatever playstyle you want. Each starting class has it's strengths. I just restarted with a new Strength and Faith build with the Confessor.
