DLC Bosses

[TwoToneWilly]

I watched a lot of content about the DLC before going into it and the internet has been ranting and raving about how hard the DLC is compared to the base game as I'm sure everyone here is aware of.

But.. am I missing something? I've beat the first 3 DLC bosses so far with one death. I had more trouble with several of the base game bosses over anything I've ran into so far.

The solitary knight, the dancing lion, Messmer - all just really trivial bosses -

I'm hoping there's something around the corner that gives me that "ah, I get it" moment.

Apart from the final boss, there isn't much to rant about. You will understand.

Может быть выпросто перекачались, и усиление от осколка древа упадка, используемого вами, сделало этот аспект заметнее. Плюс ДЛС заточено под Веру, имея сборку под этот параметр игра проходится в разы легче.

Temper your expectations, OP. You certainly are a got tier ZoUlZ veteran....A legend like Low Tier God, unfazed and with sick SkIlLZ. Im sure you can beat even the final boss without playing the game...

Serious answer: NG 0 and probably overleveling it so yeah OP, getting there after you will Radagon and even Malenia will put you in RL 200 or more wich is enough to make a powerful character with 60 (any GAINZ above that are anecdotal) in your main damage stat like STR or DEX, allowing you to trample everything specially after collecting blessings.

Just wait for certain bosses and (just a suggestion) dont spoil yourself watching Youtube videos.

You got me on NG 0, but it's a fresh run with no farming. I entered the DLC at level 140ish after beating the base game. Before Elden Ring, I had only beat Dark Souls 3 and played a couple of hours of Bloodborne.

This was my second playthrough of Elden, the first was power stancing dual halberds with 30 Vigor and 80 Strength back before there were virtually any patches. If you think the DLC is mad hard, that's fine. I'm just saying I don't get it.

Oh look, another humblebrag posts that pretends to be worried that the game doesn't provide enough of a challenge.

Yawn.

What's your build?

Also, Rellana and dancing lion were hard before the scooby Doo buffs, but are now actually quite easy. Q

Just saying that I'm disappointed with all of the hype around it's difficulty. Base game was harder.

Only the last boss second phase is annoying asf , the rest are okay with messmer and midra being the best imo

Then do a challenge run.

Hey, came back to say you're right. DLC was overall a cake walk and then Radahn is just.. man, what a strange note to end the DLC on.

Such a terrible boss design and was zero fun at all to slog through. I beat him once on my own story and then assisted two other players for a total of three kills and every time it was just lame.

His attacks are so absurdly relentless with AoE spam that you are forced to resort to DoT effects like rot and bleed. Someone HAS to play a greatshield with a poke weapon or you're going to have a terrible time.

When you created this thread nearly one month ago ha! Congratulations and yes, Radhan is something else. Killed him 6 times and i still ♥♥♥♥♥ all the holy resistance i can and since i can afford using a Holy Blacksteel great shield whithout oberburden while retaining light roll (no weapon.....just Golden order seal to cast Scarlet Aeonia, Bayle incantations, new pest threads and Godslayer incantations) i have all the options to negate/counter his moves, without making killing him insufferable.

Now if you want to "Sunbro" Bayle and Midra are way more enjoyable than him.....The amount of times i killed Radhan after a lot of summons is quite pathetic.
