How Does a Noob/Casual Play The DLC

[Mack Dabby]

I've never beat a souls game but i love them. I want to play the new DLC but heard you have to beat the game or come close, is this true? No way to just jump into the dlc?

[zab]

to play the DLC in this game you need to beat 2 main bosses, Radahn and Mogh, Lord of blood

[Darth Invader]

Nope.

You will probably have to kill something, then take those ashes to a merchant in a cave, then have a damn pterodactyl transport you out of the cave to a library, where you will then have to talk to some old lady, who gives you a key, that opens a door probably from the same place you just came from...

All that just to unlock the DLC.

You think I'm kidding?!?

Prolly better off just starting a new character. GL.

you have to beat a boss which is near the end of the game, there is a way to kill it early in the game but it's gonna be an end game level boss so it will be really tough unless you use exploits to kill him easily. You also need to kill another boss which is somewhat early but not too much, so you still have to go through a bit of the game to kill it. So basically no, you can't just jump in as soon as you start.

curious why you want to play the dlc but not the basegame?

[Mack Dabby]

I've played like 80 hours of the base game but got stuck somewhere and stopped playing haha. And its been months. But i figured it would be cool to jump right into the new content if possible

We don't do that here...

zab is correct, you'll need Radahn and Mohg. The entrance to the DLC will be in Mohg's arena, the arm of Miquella. Source: an interview Miyazaki did a month or two ago about ER and the DLC.

Just fight him. You'll be aight.

From what I hear, he is literally easier than every other Dark Souls boss that came before him.

That's just what I heard. I actually thought he was pretty hard at one point as well, but someone on the internet told me I was wrong.

All good though.

Don't give up, skeleton.

Not complain about the boss. I just thought that he's better as optional boss. It doesn't feel right that you have to go through varre quest to access to dlc now. As i recalled that quest required me to read through walkthrough several times to figure out.

You don't have to varre quest to reach mogh's palace, there is a gate in consecrated snowfield aswell

It also does make sense that hes involved considering hes the one that stole miquella away

You're cool.

I was just taking a passive aggressive jab at everyone who thinks DS3 is harder.

You just got caught in the crossfire.

All good though. Game on.

I don't know jack about lore in this game if that's the case then i guess. However defeating him also lock yourself off from obtain best hat for bleed build i hope fromsoft change that at least.

DS3 only harder if you play it before elden ring lol. Morgott alone gave me more trouble than 80% of ds3 bosses.
Granted i beaten Soul of Cinder 3 times in row not just for ending its just that hes fun to fight with.

My only tip in this department is get it before you kill him
