I KNOW HE WONT BUT JUST IF POSSIBLE READ THIS MIYAZAKI

[Dedprice]

you can make a dlc thats difficult... without making literally every ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ thing inside of it difficult. ive literally killed this man in pvp and know he cant dodge for ♥♥♥♥ so i HIGHLY doubt he can even beat his own game at this point. i dont know what miyazakis vision is, but i know he wants us to feel "victorious" and "accomplished" so we jump out our seat and scream "YEAAAH I FKN DID IT!" only that left us at the very first hour of dlc when we saw every thing in the dlc was that difficult. i stopped feeling accomplished. dont go down the route of thinking "my games are fun because they are hard" base game elden ring is far better than this. shoot.... demon souls is better than this.

feel better?

This is weird. I keep seeing people go on and on about how hard the DLC is and how brutal even the early enemies are and I'm just not seeing it. So far the DLC's difficulty has felt fine. It's totally in line with everything else I was fighting up until that point.

just parried Blackgaol Knight to death, after like 30 f-ing tries, and "victorious" and "accomplished" is how i feel

i mean i cheese every boss after maybe 10 tries by putting on sacred bleed weapons. if they arent weak to bleed, theyre weak to sacred because theyre undead. if they arent weak to sacred, theyre weak to bleed because their some kind of faith based enemy.

there is literally no other enemy ive encountered so far.

im lvl 200 and still get killed in the matter of seconds. i though "i need to explore and find those scuba-tree- ♥♥♥♥ thingies. got like... 30 of em. couldnt find more. re-challenge bosses thinking they should be on par with base game. nope. a single super fast attack still takes about 50 to 80% of my health. im literally out here with 70% resist to physical because i refuse to not wear armor i find ugly but with ridiculous stats. and i cant use the new weapons because they do so little damage. i dont think its cool or exciting summoning the npcs because they do 200 damage at best against a 50k health boss. they have maybe the same amount of health but bosses do 1000+ damage a swing, on top of having mortal kombat combos and 9 piece combos to ♥♥♥♥ them up. i watched rellana do upwards of 5000 damage on leda, and not even the npc's with built in responses can dodge them.

like... even if you breeze through.. i honestly cant find this fun. ive never even complained about difficulty in from, but here i am. idc that people are gonna say get good. others are right. this ♥♥♥♥ is really too much.

So whats your build? Lvl 200 is actually a lil too much and i bet its an unoptimized build

he was honestly the easiest fight so far... i beat him after seeing everyone complain and thought "sure he hits hard, but if thats it... cake walk"

then i started roaming and found out.. he was possibly the weakest enemy there was, excluding fodder, but even fodder is more difficult because they have 2-5 others around them.

dex faith.

i farmed the black knights (also easy imo) for their full set (its not good) and their weapons (ok the weapons are amazing) the mace with a dex lightning faith build puts it into astronomical damage, as lightning resistance is low on basically everything dlc or not.
i dual wield scavangers curved for bleed and holy damage for cheese.

stats are
vig: 50
mind: 26
endurance: 40
strength: 32
dex: 50
int: 12
faith: 60
arcane: 10

im a little over 200 but i just say 200
with the blessings, my physcal resistance sits at 65% and hits 70 something with black flame
my magic i use talismans or physique/ buffs to bring up to 69 as it was the only way i could figure out what that horse cleaver dude dodge pattern was when he was sending blue flames everywhere. ( also 69..hell yeah)
holy is at 53
fire is at 58
i can also use buffs to get them all to about 60 or 70 each. i stil get shat on if i get hit even once.

i use the gravel seals to boost lightning, but have basically given up on that.
talismans arent optimized but boost what they can.
dragon shield +2
erd favor +2
and i swap between both faith/incant boosting talismans or both successive talismans to do actually noticeable damage.

no im not optimized for bleed specifically, but with mimic and any bleed weapon i can still get the proc easy.

You should up your vigor and focus on 2 damage stats instead of 3 :) use greatshield talisman for def and the defense bubbletear too hope it helps somewhat

Wheres the most issues you got? Base game endgame was also 2-3 shots from enemies/bosses. Did you have the same problems with that? The enemies tank so much damage its sometimes better to do less damage but have massive defense and hp to counter that. Sure fights might be longer but at least you wouldnt die so much :/

So far with scadutree fragments (3) i have beaten the dancing beast but i didnt make it mich further yet so im not that much of a help anyways. Got all the scadutree things?

i had maybe 7 when i made this currently at 12 or 13

once i beat the st trina area, everything was a cake walk. messmer is still alive only because im keeping him alive while i explore so i dont get locked out of anything.

the scadutree fragments (were they trying to say SCADURtree? scadu tree is such a weird name)

make everything much easier but theres still areas that take me from 0 to pissed tf off, not because of boss or enemy hit hard, but just deisign.

like the finger areas, and the pink balls of paralysis, that have possibly the highest tracking of any move or attack in the game, (and guess what players cant ever use it)
i mean i literally jumped over one and it curved up in the air and slammed back down on me. i rode torrent and tried side dashing.. nope. it also insta knocks you off torent.

these things can curve around cover if you just recently went behind cover.

and then.. if you get hit, the guys throwing them will summon a clone of themselves that will more than likely one shot you.

work around? none. perfectly dodge, and even then... they have aoe.
