SOTE - Shadiw Keep, where to next?
I somehow,barely managed to get to here, i probably lost to that stupid >!hippo!< like 30 times, if it was not for summons, i would have gave up.
I get wrecked by those black knights. Either with colossal mace or twinblade, and twinblade is worse. By the time i rolled out of his 10 attack combo, im out of stamina for carian slicer ( which does meager dmg at scadutree 10 ) and he starts again. WTF
I have like 45 vit 70 int, and im doing less dmg so that its really a chore to even try to break through shadow keep.

Why is it called the skibidi tree?
Is it a lore reference to a toilet? Hinting at some of the late game of elden ring being shit?

My character is lvl 160 in NG+, should I speedrun the progression to get to the new DLC?
I'm not the best in soulslikes, and I'm wondering if I'm fubar because NG makes stuff harder. Should I just do a replay of the main game on a fresh character?
I literally hadn't even started the NG+ playthrough, I'm at the first Grace 😅

> Previews for the Elden Ring DLC have just been released! Lots of journalists and popular Souls players have been to an event where they played the DLC for a few hours, giving us way more info on what to expect and things such as new weapon types and upgrade materials. This isn't a comprehensive list, just the few that I found quickly. > > --- > > ## Videos > > * Iron Pineapple: https://youtu.be/ocfTNBUIyCg?si=ucbSYqCSRtTadHlT > > * VaatiVidya: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nP9EOmSFbvk > > ## Articles > > * RockPaperShotgun: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/elden-ring-shadow-of-the-erdtree-hollows-out-everything-you-loved-about-elden-ring-and-its-brilliant > > * VG247: https://www.vg247.com/elden-ring-shadow-of-the-erdtree-hands-on-preview > > * Polygon: https://www.polygon.com/24170532/elden-ring-dlc-shadow-of-the-erdtree-preview-release-date

Shout out to absolute madlads, i spend the whole sunday in jolly coop and invader bashing ( good amount of being bashed by invaders )
I decided to finish main story today, and not wishing to spend weeks getting so much better, i decided to summon people at each summoning thingy every time, all the time.
player killing Hoarah Loux with serpent killer spear - i have no idea what happened there or which stats did he have, he obliterated the boss in less than 10 seconds, left me speechless
Malenia was most fun, keeping her attention just enough to let the other get a few hits from behind, then rinse and repeat at least untill second phase.
Albinauric mask, powerstancing fist weapons with ironcrag aow or using rapier and shield - absolute goat, had their help with like 5 or 6 bosses. Stay golden <3
I expected way more from Gideon :(
Now that the game is done, im returning the favor next weekend when i have the time to play.

How are you planning on mixing up your DLC build?
Elden Ring was my first Fromsoft game, so I played it pretty straight; big slow sword, lots of health and a large damage output.
I'll most likely be starting a new run this evening, and I'm thinking of mixing it up and going down a Magic path for a change (if anyone could explain the difference between Magic and Faith that'd be grand).
Are you planning on doing a rebuild? And if so, how are you going to mix it up?
-
Did anyone else notice this?
The sites of grace are humanities from Dark Souls 1. Pretty sure its just a smart reuse of assets, but its fun to theorize. I like thinking that Grace and Humanity are similar, if not the same. Losing both leads to similar outcomes.

Unhinged and baseless lore rant because waiting for the DLC is suffering
This is all products of my deranged mind and should not be mistaken for anything else.
Before the Elden Ring, before the Crucible, before the Elden Beast crashed into the Lands Between and fucked everything up forever, there was the One Great.
And the One Great was a massive tree that in essence WAS all of the Lands Between.
And it rained down a continual gentle storm of likely blue Immortal Essence, without souls, without thought, without division.
But this bounty of fundamental energy draws predators, and deep in the vast unknown the Greater Will sensed this delicious feast and dispatched one of its larvae, the Elden Beast, to begin the process of plundering the Lands Between of every drop of Immortal essence.
So the Elden Beast crash landed in the middle of the One Great, the Great Tree, shattering it and in its smouldering crater, the Immortal Essence of the One Great Tree was polluted with the golden essence of the Greater Will.
And that Immortal Essence began to take form, and shape, and have will and desire, and love and conflict, life and death.
The beings that this tainted Immortal Essence created fell into conflict, struggling for power and prestige. And their willingness to fight, the bright burning of their lives, their desire to strive and dominate, these all became glorious golden energy to feed back to the Greater Will via a corrupted conduit spawned from the Crucible and the Elden Beast.
As long as those sharded essences of the One Great continue to fight and strive and struggle, the Greater WIll shall never be hungry, and what being in the Lands Between exists without struggle?
Marika or the God that fled, it matters not, Crucible or Erd Tree, it matters not, as long as the Greater Will is constantly fed the struggle of willful beings.
Which is why the Frienzied Flame is the only egalitarian ending.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk, MAY CHAOS TAKE THE WORLD!

Liurnia Tower Bridge you can see the DLC veil
Anyone else notice this? Also if you look out into the water where the DLC supposedly is to be you'll notice everything is "pulled in" and closer than it should be. Caelid tower is way too close.
This all fits because you need to invert the tower and there's so much reference to the DLC in the Carian Study Hall

New to Fromsoft DLC, what do I need to know?
I hadn't played a Souls/like/borne game before Elden Ring, but the moment I did I fell in love with the sub-genre.
That said, I've never played any of the DLC before, so I'm wondering how I need to approach it. For context: I finished Elden Ring but never started a NG+ run.
Can I jump back in with my guy, or am I going to have to work my way up to the part of the game that unlocks the DLC?
Thanks.

If you're like me and never had much sucess with parrying, try out the buckler. It has the most lenient timing and fast startup.
Carian retaliation on a medium shield is good too but it takes a little longer to come out.

First playthrough - some tips!
Well not first, but third i guess, tho i did not finish the game.
First build was faith based, and i easily got untill Raya Lucaria, got bored, and saw that i sold or removed a bunch of incantations and ashes i could have used.
Now im restsrting as a more str than faith pve build, looking fot advice - what are some cool weapons to use? I like the morningstar for soem reason. I plan to either buff with fats and incantations and use some minor flames for giggles.
How would i level up? I plan to run to weeping peninsula and grab what i can there before i head off to Stormveil, making a detour around rotten lands too.

Considering restarting the game because of my class.
First time souls-borne player here. I started the game out with the warrior class because I figured it would be the most well rounded, however, I did a little reading and found that the samurai and vagabond were supposedly good classes for people just starting out. Is it worth it to reset the little progress I have to start out with a different class that might be better?

Warrior Jar Shard
I'm making my way through new game plus and thought I'd try collect some of the weapons and items I missed first time around. Warrior Jar Shard is one I'm not too proud of collecting.

Just realized SONAF buffs VIG/STR/DEX by 5 when Equipped. Whoa! What next?
Title. I'm mid/late game and decided I wanted to try out some new weapons that I've been sitting on. Had no idea this attribute buff was the case but just spent some time farming my Faith up so I could try the SONAF that's been in my inventory forever. I realized my vigor strength and dexterity jumped by 5 and was confused and now realized it's only when SONAF is equipped. And it seems to apply to other weapons equipped at the same time? Or at least the attributes stay in place even.
How can I beat take advantage of this. Is there something I'm missing? If it's basically like having half of another radagons soreseal when equipped, maybe I need to beef my strength/dex a bit so I can carry the SONAF as a buff to other weapons, too!

First time player 250+ hrs in and on level 44.
I had never played any FromSoftware title before i picked this game up on a buzz of recommendations from End of Year best game lists. I purposely didn't read any how-to or spoilers posts and dove in. No clue why but i went Bandit class. I had no idea what was going on and hung out looking at birds and beautiful scenery. I was weak and snuck around everywhere. Slowly i got used to the mechanics and progressed by just going everywhere i could. Only after dying countless times, making mistakes and wondering why I was levelling so slowly did i venture to the Reddit (now lemmy) EldenRing community. I steered away from obvious spoilers and gleaned a few tips and tricks (wish i had levelled vigor and not balanced stats out though i did concentrate on dex) However one thought kept returning. Perhaps I'm not very good at this game. Ive only just started hanging out in the Lake of Liurnia after going the Weeping Peninsula route and im 250+ hours in and only level 40 something. Im not complaining. I love this game. It fills me with a sense of wonder and satisfaction that I've rarely found consistently in other games. But i do have a nagging suspicion that perhaps i still have hundreds of hours of game learning to go amd that I'm still scrub. ( those peaky imps will always get me or a pack of wolves and I was overjoyed to finally beat the Tree Sentinel) Im still amazed how balanced and thoughtful this game is. How it teaches you as you go along by not making things easy but when you're ready you can progress. And i love to just wander about and see what's what. Sometimes hours just me and Torrent just cruising. What do you think? Am I under levelled for my hours. Does it matter? (I kinda think not) Is this usual for a first time FS player?
