Also my Carian Sword wasn't fully upgraded. Damage was 544 after maxing it out so still falls short of a proper staff but it's at least respectable.
They need a larval tear bell bearing so we can buy infinite amounts.
💯
And a Dragon Stone and Great Glovewort bell bearing
That'd be nice too but the tear bell bearing would be so freaking nice
yea it would be great but they provide you with so many and you can always do the glitch to respec without using a tear
Just go and kill a single (1) ball (like the ones you find in Nokstella)... That's it. It's a 100% drop. Literally the easiest item in the game to farm from an enemy.
They changed bloodfiend arm from a arcane scale to c and it still does crazy damage
So appreciate the videos, especially on the holiday! The walkthroughs are clutch and my favorite series you ever put out was the DS3 let’s play on the modded version. It was so fun watching you rediscover that game! Have a drink on me today and happy 4th of July!
I wish they’d tweak the scaling of some of the underperforming weapons. Also I wish flails would get some love..
Flails and whips are objectively the best weapon types in the game, so if they buffed flails they would be so OP that everyone would only use them.
@@reiddutchess9955ask cowboy flails are some of the WORST weapons in the game
@@rayznbread603 if by WORST you mean undeniably superior, then I agree with you
Maybe it depends how you play it? I love whips but it just doesn’t fit my playstyle. Doesn’t mean it’s a bad weapon it’s just my “personality and patterns” when playing it doesn’t fit with whips and I end up not enjoying that much.
I think the Bachand Blade bug fix was that you could cancel the recovery animation after an R2 attack by immediately pressing the dodge button. I didn't notice this bug, but that's how I'm interpreting the patch notes.
Edit: Never mind somebody else already pointed that out. Sorry for the redundant comment.
Edit2: Other way around, recover animation took forever and you couldn't cancel out of it with an uncharged R2. Thank you @marcoskrause9245 for the correction.
No, with backhand blades you could NOT cancel the uncharged heavy recovery animation, that was the problem. It was very noticeable for everyone who played with it for some time, you did an uncharged heavy and it took forever before you could roll.
@@marcoskrause9245 Thank you for the clarification. "Prevented" is doing a lot of the heavy lifting in that sentence from the patch notes.
I love the backhand blade and now that you point that out, I do remember fighting some bosses where I would avoid R2 because of how slow it felt out of it.
I was literally thinking I was getting stun locked this whole time, and it’s a bloody bug!
never been this early! used to watch the old dark souls III videos and they always helped so much so late thanks for that man!! 🙏🏽
I'm glad they didn't nerf the thrusting shields as I'm using it to help people with bosses. I'm also going to do a main game playthrough with them.
They did nerf thrusting shields. The block attacks cost more stamina now.
Honestly the only thing I’m disappointed with is the so few buffs.
They should’ve nerfed the unrollable Radahn combo
Almost not nearly all of em. But so many of my fav new weopons need buffs lol
@@davidwestin6345There is no such combo unless you mean if you already are caught in it. In that case its still only a 3hit combo
@@davidwestin6345 deflecting tear. You're welcome
@@RampidWarthogStudiosdeflecting tear!! Son, you have skill issues?
Good videos as always and thank you for breaking this down Cowboy and have good night 🙏
We really needed some buffs bad on some of this stuff, but fixing stuff that was busted busted is really awesome to see
Cowboy im following your walkthrough for the base game and im actually so happy that its going to smooth 🙏🏽
i'm glad they didn't do any boss nerfs. i was doing the last fight last night on scadutree lvl 15 as a sort of challenge and almost got him, but it was getting late, so i decided to go to bed and come back fresh, but seeing that there was a patch had me nervous. i usually don't do challenge runs or what have you, and it would've been disappointing if i did kill him just to find out there was a nerf.
For all the "balance" fromsoftware tries to achieve, it seems like one area they can give some more attention to are INT weapons, buffs, equipment
Backhand Blade had this very weird bug - after a heavy attack you were allowed to cancel the long recovery animation with more attacks, spells, but dodges were blocked by the animation, so no dodging after heavy attack allowed.
I'm so glad this got fixed because it was annoying - I'm doing a heavy attack on a boss as a punish and then I spam dodge dodge dodge but nothing happens and the boss was punishing my punish attack :D So goofy
I wish they'd fix the hitbox on the second part of White Light Charge ash of war. If the enemy is directly in front of you, the explosion misses them completely
I've had way more issues with the 1st part of the ash missing. If you're on a slope it just whiffs every time.
Really hoping this means mimic tear stops going awol in boss fights.
The lightning perfume rolling sparks was incredible for wiping out groups of slimes. Hope it still works.
I'm hoping they buff the throw stamina requirement for Spear of the Impaler.
Unfortunately...
-*Light of Miquella* STILL can't be buffed by the *Dryleaf Seal* or the *Circlet of Light*
-*Furious Blade of Ansbach* STILL does not apply Bleed
-*Bayle's Tyranny* STILL can't be boosted by the *Roar Medallion* (Although, the hitboxes have been fixed!)
-*Blind Spot* is STILL stupid (Mainly in PvP)
-*Carian Sovereignty* is STILL stupid (Mainly in PvE)
I dont think carian sovereignty need nerf, it is pretty slow. The amount of damage bosses in the DLC do, it is a fair trade use it
@@lincolnprestes7617what are u talking about. With this ash of war i killed bayle in seconds
Blind Spot is manageably broken Swift slash was world shatteringly broken
@@1ofgodsson202 if they nerf will be useless, the trade with bosses will be not worthy
The Fire Knight Greatsword is awesome… with some buffs I get 3444 attack power… but it doesn’t that long though.
Impenetrable Thorns is truly broken, it destroys all bosses in just a few seconds with the arcane build. It's strange that they didn't fix it or remove it from the game 😅
I just got the throwing daggers last night and was complaining about the range of that weapon lmao what timing
Cowboy you are really the best, thank you!
God the carian thrusting shield is so so much fun in a guard counter build. Using the deflecting headtear w the talismans focused on counters turns the game to sekiro
The change on the thrusting shield was the stamina consumption on block, not on attacks, so before you could just hold block and basically consume no stamina and attack and block simultaneously at will...now you actually use some stamina on blocking like a normal shield...i think it's still viable but just bot broken...
I knew that PVP was going to be absolute chaos for a few weeks
The Discus Shield is my new fave weapon.
some say they patched the commander gaius instant charge attack too along w the golden hippo fix you mentioned. I have yet to check though will test and play later
Thanks!
Well, hadn't seen impenetrable thorns until just now. I seem to have lost my jaw.😱
I’m so glad that impenetrable thorns wasn’t nerfed. Especially, since I’m rocking a Max Strength & Faith build.
It’s not a horrible patch but I would’ve loved to see some buffs to weapons specifically the time it takes to charge the euporia. For such a late game weapon it takes an eternity to charge the 2nd charge on its skill
The winged scyth is underrated. Blasts in dlc
They need to fix the bug at the fog rift catacombs to get the loot where the giant imp standing
6:20 With back hand blades you could cancel the uncharged heavy, Blindspot and swift Slash's recovery by rolling, after the attack before the animation finished you could roll.
Ahhh. Good catch I wasn't aware of that
No, with backhand blades you could NOT cancel the uncharged heavy recovery animation, that was the problem, and its fixed now.
How many walkthrough episodes do you think you are going to make?
28, it's already done.
@@FightinCowboysweet thank you
@@FightinCowboy 28? on a dlc? that just shows how large the expansion is if you need 28 episodes to cover it all. Thanks cowboy.
Would love a way to farm more larval tears even if the chance is low or even if you can only do it after beating the game 1 or 2x to make it more “fair”.
I was hoping they fixed the issue with dlc not working in some cases especially on PlayStation, where the guy not appearing in moug / egg area after you defeat moug
The range on the cirque still leaves much to be desired, like I see chakrams Im expecting something like being able to be far back.
Savage lion ash is so much fun. I want to put it on the black knights hammer, but the one in the church in beginning area dropped the shield.i gurss its bugged from what ive read. I tried farming the one by the great bridg, but he kept dropping armor pieces.
Thx for Info Top
After the update my map is invisible, did the same happen to anyone else?
I updated as soon as I came out. I hate abusing glitches and still I do If I can. So I'm happy they fixed the parfume glitch now I can go back to playing it normally
Bummed about the electric perfume lol
I dont really use summons but the first summon i used (Ancient Dragon Florisaxx) is causing my game unsync with the save, stops the music, infinite load screen. Every other summin works fine except this one. Anyone else have this bug?
Why does the commanders prosthesis doesn't get buffed by the storm and kick talisman,its skill is storm kick
I remember when I tried doing varres questline, I had to do an invasion. I was 1 vs 3, and the 3 of them used the swift slash, which was ridiculous and abusive
😂😂😂
I just wonder if the Nerf went far enough. The fact that they didn't touch how quickly you can start the next attack concerns me
Tbf u can’t really complain about scummy tactics when you’re literally invading. Only consistent way to win when invading is to use scummy tactics after all.
Still can’t get the black knight hammer if you missed it in the pre patch
Such bs.. I missed out on it with 2 characters already
now where the fucks who said rolling sparks ain't a bug
It was absolutely wild that people were trying to argue with me that that shit was intended
Rolling sparks was doing busted damage. Optimized well people were literally one shotting bosses
@@johno1544Can confirm. I two shot the golden hippo boss. Was fun while it lasted.
They're gatekeeping on people who use summons and magic in pve.
@@stevebob8398 same it didnt even get any attacks off in the golden spike mode. I didnt have a optimum build or rakasha's armour nor the self inflicted frenzy buff either.
How's the normal rolling sparks (no cheese)? It does really good damage as is.
still waiting for a buff on the r2 for messmer's spear...
Wdym buff
@@maxpeul5944they nerfed it into the ground and it needs a slight buff now
Might be my favorite Ash of War in the entire game.
Thanks cowboy
The notes mentioned some performance improvements, any difference?
Good stuff, still waiting on that fix to letting us view the map while we are Aggro’d by a bat a mile away but good stuff nonetheless 😂
Happy 4th!
Ty
Have you tried the red bears claw yet ?
the running attacks are so nice
Idk this patch is just at least low to decent to me but I feel like the Flame Knights greatsword is much slower than before I’m finding more and more dex guys beating it than ever. I think I’m gonna be changing my build from it, though it’s rather sad bc I had a lot of fun using Messmer’s flame incants with the Fire Knights greatsword and it was nice having that whole Fire Knight get up for a while. Now I don’t think there’s any other good weapon class for PvP that can work for Messmer’s fire knight builds anymore tbh. I’ll might just have to either grind though the other two bosses just to get to using Falx or I guess Sword of Night since that’s been picking up more as of late, funny and people told me that weapon wasn’t good now look at everyone using it now.
Hey in base game I’ve got 83 days of play time in this craziness and I never ran into a dragon to the right of sainted hero’s grave was he added or glitched out and I jus never encountered wtf
Cowboy can you put out a build to kill Radahn? I went through the whole DLC with the Unga Bunga Build with Ruins Greatsword, but seem to have hit a brick wall with consort radahn
Happy 4th everyone
They didnt touch Golden Crux on Greatsword of Damnation. People will still be sucked into its catch box from halfway across the screen for ridiculous damage in PvP. Its totally broken.
Did they finally fix the stutter though?
By the looks of it, nope.
Great rundown. There is SO much good content on TH-cam. It is just such a pain distinguishing it from the crap.
Hell, on ps5 I’m still waiting for a patch to get the new holy hammer the knights are using. Still nothing for me
I still suffer from over-nerf syndrome of HellDivers 2... So thankful that just isn't the case with Fromsoftware.
they need to nerf the tracing of the smith shield and lower the damage
Carian sorcery sword wasn't maxed.
It does much more damage
The thing that they have to do is that we can empower the scadutree more
One thing I’m curious about is - if you co op with a player online - do you scale to the amount of scadutree & revered ashes in THEIR world or the one that you have?
Theirs
Im fine with the nerfs even though impenetrable thorns is untouched, but why cant they just buff all of these useless incantations and soceries without hyper armor but cast time longer then me taking a shit? I hope the next update is actually bigger and more noticable.
Do you still get a B scaling in arcane with the blood affinity? Or did they just reduce the blood loss build up ?
It’s a c now which is unnecessary it’s a over effective weapon rather than pvp
People invading in the room before Mesmer and doing this one ash of war stomps over and over is ridiculous. Happened to me twice. Other people have dealt with it too.
Did they bring back the bloody helice warcry move ll😂
What staff are you using for that impenetrable thorns???
Staff of the Guilty, increases thorn sorcery by 20% but it has a 2% drop rate.
I'm glad they fixed Swift Strike. That shit was so annoying. Always 1-2 shotting in pvp. And you could get perma-stun locked with each hit. It was not fun to go against.
Welp have fun everyone Poke poke poke behind fingerprint shield is now the only consistent melee option for final boss now
Yup really hate them nerfing shit without buffing stuff. Why the fuck are base game weapons so much stronger than the dlc ones? I have them mostly all maxed and they almost all do less damage than top performing weapons from base game. Even base dmg for blasphemous blade is higher than weapons with shit aow on them. Rivera of blood still far stronger. Just not even fun to play with weak weapons from the dlc.
Ya added a dragon by the hero’s grave wich made no sense
The Furnace Golems need to be nerfed to less health. Those fights are boring and way too long.
I tried everything they said for performance improvements on PC. Nothing worked. My game still has a HORRIBLE stutter that ruins the entire experience. Dying constantly during boss fights and such because my game freezes and then speeds up is literally the worst feeling possible.
PS5 is the same. The game barely gets to 60.
I haven't had any problems on PS5. But I always turn off motion blur and ray-tracing, and set to performance mode.
thorns tore apart Messmer in like 5 hits, it was too much. My first character that fight took me a ton of attempts. I tried thorns with my sorcerer character and he melted so fast. It was insane, but it should probably be nerfed.
Another note on thorns not getting touched, you have to be point blank on bosses that have tiny hitboxes to even get good results, not to mention there still is the HP cost that thorn spells do, so it’s dangerous to just mindlessly use the spell. In PvP it’s not a problem, dodging the thorns is just rolling forward through it. Also trying to use them on bosses that move a lot, your better off just using something else
True but the damage still seems wild. The only other thing comparable of pumping damage like that for a mage at least would be meteors or comet which both gobble FP at an insane rate
Nah they busted
Ok but the stat requirements to focus on Aberrant sorceries stops you from building into a lot of other good sorcery related things in a lvl 150 meta build. So it balances out. @@FightinCowboy
It feels kind of comparable to Mohg’s spear weapon art, except the latter has a comparatively generous AOE 🤔 I don’t know-maybe it’s time for extensive PVE testing 👹
and often it completley misses if you are too near or the boss jumps.
Fixing Rolling sparks on the 4th of July is kind of fitting. No more nuke fireworks
They should've waited until tomorrow on that one. Merica, (and Merika!) 😂
@@bern_the_undead they could have waited one more day before they turned a nuke into a sparkler 😅
RIP Flame Art infusion
Radahn is impossible with magic build. I did it with carian slicer but its not technically magic.
His not i beat him as pure spell caster tho i did summon
I kind of wish some of the weapons got buffed, but still a great patch overall
5:13 The Carian Sorcery Sword was only +10 but the Staff of Guilty is +25. The Carian Sorcery Sword uses regular smithing stones.
The change on the Thrusting Shields was not the attack stamina consumption. It was the stamina on the block during the shield poke. Before it used no stamina at all when it blocked during the shield poke.
Ahh good catch. I'll report back after leveling it all the way
544. By comparison Regal Carian hits for 730 so it's _decent_ but I still think I'd only use it for emergency casts sadly.
@@FightinCowboy the Carian sword is comparable to top staffs at 40 int. But loses at higher levels of int. So for a Mage/Knight build maxing at 40 sorcery, the carian sword is great.
Sounds like a decent use case
4th of July emergency patch hype!
Happy 4th, you fucking Nerds 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Marika bless America
Im trying to decide if i should level up any more, im 175 after a complete playthrough journey 1. going into shadow without doing NG+, im doing fine so far, killed dancing storm dragon guy very easily and black gaol knight and fire golem without any summons, very simple dex build, same build i used on my first playthrough of elden ring just for nostalgic reasons. I cant see a huge benefit to leveling any further, i have 80 dex, 60 vitality, 50 endurance, some faith for a couple buff spells. The only thing i could see if i level further would be a tiny bit of extra health or getting another damage stat a little higher for a little more damage in a quality or other type of scaling on a weapon. What do you think? Will the scadutree levels get me through the DLC or should i get to like 225-250?
This was a good emergency patch fixing lots of the broken stuff that the community was vocal about. For PvP specific, Swift slash will definitely need more nerfs, blind spot will need a nerf and multi spread crossbow that can proc instant sleep.
Interesting
Awesome
🐐
I haven't even used any of the changed items, and it's a disappointment. This is a single player game and the player's power seems to decrease, especially for these builds. The previous patch only buffed early DLC player power. I guess I am thankful that the base game or other DLC items didn't get nerfed into the ground.
eh i mean they only nerfed op stuff, all is still great but its just not game breaking
I just want infinite larval tears
Hey cowboy, is the pvp meta lvl now 200? I think I saw most of your characters are 200 now.
I just prefer 200
Did they patch the fkn Great sword of damnation yet?
*Me happily due new patch fixing sheep up
*Me see Impenetrable thorns still broken as F
"FS why?"
Glad to hear they patched that Golden hippo bite, it was pure unadulterated bs.
