80 vigor, full bull goat armor, getting ONE SHOT by mobs

[P1]

This is ridiculous. I have full bull goat armor, dragoncrest shield talisman+2 and 80 vigor. Normal mobs one shot me. a random shadow dude throws a limp half hearted slap and my character instantly dies. It's like Miyazaki said "you know how we can make this more difficult? Everything just instantly kills you. Anyone complains? Hehe, git gud kid, nothing personnel!"

So rune level just means nothing. This isnt zelda breath of the wild, yet now we have to level up by searching the map for shrines - sorry I mean "scadutree" blessing. I was a huge fromsoft fan, i never thought I'd see the day miyazaki just ripped off zelda.

50 vigor i get 3 or 4 shots from big moobs with radan armor, don't forget that even vigor and other stats contribute to damage mitigation. The base suggested level for the dlc is 150 but you can reach 180 before half game easily melting almost everything.

Well that's a full on lie, that or you've somehow gotten to the late game areas without upgrading scadutree blessings at all.

[NOOBSURVIVES YT]

what's your scadutree blessing level? They are like golden seeds of dlc, instead of upgrading your flask they upgrade your damage and damage negation.

That dude is spamming these weird threads since release of the dlc. It's just rage bait. The sad thing is that it works.

That's for a NG run, right?
I'm asking since 1) I'm NG+3, 2) I have 80 Vigor, and 3) Just ran into some more Tree Sentinels, and they proceeded to 2-shot me with their main weapon.
I guess I should also mention my Scadutree Blessing is at 10, and my damage negation is sitting at around 60% without buffs.

how about weapons and personal upgrade?

I do DLC with my NG+7 build with 60VGR and mobs don’t one shot me.
You must be doing something wrong.

Ng+ and beyond is scaled based on the idea that you already have all 20 blessings so if youre one if the many people who started the dlc on like ng5 its going to ♥♥♥♥ you up because you dont have the fragments off the bat.
So yes, one shots are very common in the dlc.

Op you didn’t state your blessing level and where you are at in the game.
Yes I agree trash mobs shouldn’t hit as hard as they do…

Like at Blessing level 9 with The Blackgaol knight set a Kindred hit me with pest threads in did 80% of my health at 60 vigor…. Ouch.

how many scadurtrees do you have? once you get to 7 or so, it stops feeling so harsh with regular mobs. bosses are still OP but eh.

A Frosty/Bleed. 2 Cold Great Stars, was using a pair of Cold Hookclaws for evasion, A Dragon Talisman and the good ol' Dragons Rotbreath, otherwise Sacred Relic Sword and Wave of Gold for all the ground mobs. Arsenal Charm, Alexander's Jar Shard, forgot the other 2 charms atm, but I swap them out depending on the situation I find myself in.

vigor 99, full Aurox Behemoth set, poise 400

one of those peasants threw a rock at me and i died, but in real life

[vamirez]

I would say what's ridiculous is the rate at which you push out these tired threads.

[Sloop]

lvl 150 character with 0 scadutree level is the baseline, basically like a lvl 1 character in the base game, of course you get stomped. That's the point. You wouldn't go fight Mohg with lvl 1 character and lvl 1 weapon in base game, would you?

Engage with the progression system or get filtered.
