- How to Prepare for Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC
In this Elden Ring Expansion Checklist Guide, we’re going to be talking about how to prepare for the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. We’ll be asking you the important questions such as what you want to do with your character? Do you want to create a new character? Or would you rather use an existing character when you go into the DLC?
We’ll also discuss why you might want to start New Game Plus, why you might want to start over fresh with a new character, and some of the things you should probably do before you enter the DLC area.

brother, we already know for sure that miquella's hand is the passage to the land of shadow, it was said in an interview AND in the trailler there is a part where "someone" says to the player to touch the hand of miquella and go to the land of shadow(or something structured like this)
Btw there has been a new patch, the twin maiden keeps the bell bearings you offered her in Ng+
The difficulty of the DLC is roughly more or less the same difficulty as the endgame of elden ring.
WHAT?!@
yes, you can keep this.@@pokelanderzets5944
There s no need to prepare. The man himself say they r adding sekiro system leveling so we can’t steamroll.
Hopefully I will survive the wait...😂
Keep your head on a swivel mate, I know I will 🤘
Same. Me staring 2 new NG characters 😂
Wrap yourself in bubble and stay inside as much as possible 😅
I'll be playing dragon's dogma 2 while I wait since I'm already prepared, been waiting for like 12+ years
I'm with you! We can do it
I like Cowboy’s strategy of going in really high level on NG+ and try to do an every man build to be able to try all the weapons
I'm going in with a maxed ng+10 character to just play around with everything
I'm going in with 20 characters ready. All with different builds so I can try new weapons without needing to go get a rebirth.
@@RampidWarthogStudiosyou can't have 20 characters
thats mad big gulps and hot pockets!@@RampidWarthogStudios
@@shard.bearer can with mods
I’m a role player through-and-through. I will likely not worry about getting there early or late. I will get there precisely when I mean to get there.
only a sorcerer would say that!! Hahhaaaa---Love it!
@@questionseveryth1ng
I’m kind of a sorcerer. Does str/int count?
i got the game on pc and im gonna 99% everything. im not gonna kill mohg brcsuse there may br nee dialogur, but if not ill pretend he guarding the entrance
@@nayeonranghae
Cool. I’m just going to start a new game and experience it all in context as I go. I’m not going to look up any guides on it or anything. I just want to experience it and roleplay my character through it. I really enjoy that about FromSoft games. No pesky voiced protagonist to tell me how I should be feeling or thinking about stuff. Total freedom to think for myself. Love it.
I think it's worth to mention seing that the new area is "the shadow lands" holy damage builds might raise up in value...
God I hope so
That or be more useless. Remember, the shadow is strangling the Erdtree, which is the source of holy magic.
Logically shadow>holy
This will be interesting to see. Messmer is probably a child of Marika/Radagon, so he may have high Holy resistance, but I can see most of the enemies in the DLC having less Holy resistance
I doubt it, Faith only does more significant damage to enemies that were living in death inside the lands between. The shadow realm is for those you died and/or traveled there and are living in their normal bodies in spirit inside that dimension. It’s not going to be entirely full of death, if anything quite the opposite imo. I’m sure Faith will have its uses though, they won’t completely make any attribute non usable.
Faith build were already some of the most powerful , like blaphasmous blade build and stuff like that but yeah the "omens" everywhere does sounds like holy and fire build will shine
I think you missed defeating Radahn as well. I read somewhere that might be necessary for the DLC access as well.
You have to have nox open
That was said in an interview, but, regardless, you have to beat a shardbearer to be able to fight Mohg anyways, so you’ll have at least two talisman slots
good shout!
He made a 13 minute video on something that could’ve been 3 minutes and missed the radahn thing lol
I think the fact he is recommending ppl to replay the entire game covers beating Radahn. Especially if you want to complete Ranni's main quest.
Your Elden Ring videos are the best! As someone who isn’t a gamer and never knew of FromSoftware games until ER, your videos have been extremely useful as I make my slow painful but enjoyable grind through my first ER play through. (I’m just now to the capital outskirts and windmill area after around 90 hours.)
I’m in the same boat as you, but on the Fire Giant!
Same boat I just beat godrick. I'm so overwhelmed but fun at same time.
Great video, Miyazaki did say that the dlc scaling will be different than base game because they took consideration that people would be high level and OP and will get nerfed in the dlc if i understood right
Well, im on a ng+8 i think im gonna die in 2 hits tbh lol 😆
Yh he basically said that the DLC will sort of (KIND OF) reset (MAYBE) all players into base stats for the DLC only.
Meaning, people will have the same experience in the DLC as they would in Limgrave-Altus Plateau. A common critique of souls games is that their late games have no progression at all, you are simply fully geared up and have little to no need to level up because of how everything is scaled similarly in a lategame of a Fromsoft game.
This new mechanic should give ppl that feeling of Limgrave-Altus progression, but instead in a lategame area.
(TL;DR - DLC will play like early-game Elden Ring with lategame difficulty, and so you wouldn’t need to worry about over-levelling/under-levelling )
@@Drzestrella19I've stopped counting what ng+ my main build is on but I think it's going to be rough so I recreated my build on a normal ng just so I can learn movesets without being destroyed in the first 5 seconds lol
Somebody also watched Vaatividya :P
@Zayn_Bass Great info. I'm on ng+4, and the damage output is noticeably insane. Was going to start a new game solely for the dlc. As wonderful as ER is, I'm not sure if I want to grind all that hard earned gear again.
Great video, nice to see ER cropping up again on the Fextra account. FYI, Miyazaki stated in an interview that Mohg's boss is indeed where you access the DLC.
This was the exact video I wanted to see as I left off right in the middle of a NG+ run about a year ago
Im so glad you addressed this! This was exactly how i was feeling but no one else talked about it! Thank you!
I'll continue with my main. I didn't take him to NG+ and I really rushed through some of the endgame zones. Ended up at level 144 which seems just fine for the DLC.
For now I'll find/respec to a build I like (I went battle mage but I want to try crusader), collect all the talismans I'd want and all the smithing stones to upgrade whatever weapon I find in the DLC that I really like - and wait before Miquella's Egg!
I spent over 120 hours getting everything I wanted on this character back then - there's no way I'm starting from scratch.
I’m the same even down to the hours you put in, I’ll do NG+ once I’ve completed the DLC
One thing I definitely did for my second and third character was limit how many weapons I maxed out, on top of stocking up on lesser upgrade materials. I assume that there will be more ancient stones in the DLC but for all I know, my dream weapon will be the first thing I pick up. So I'll definitely be ready on that end.
I was already preparing for NG+ and gathering all the weapons/spells/incans I wanted. Then helldivers 2 came out and haven’t been back on it since. This reminded me I need to finish my own check list
You make really good points. I'm super glad I came across your video. Most people I know have been saying " new playthrough" !!! I think you have good idea's. Thank you
I'm playing through on a new character to shake off some rust and get back into the groove of things.
Playing with just the Lance and a greatshield since I finally found the lance.
this is what i'm doing too. started a new character a day after the DLC announcement and been slowly enjoying the game again. lots of time between now and june, taking it slow and learning what i didn't the first couple times around!
@@MegaElitezman it’s been years since I beat the game, I made a new character once they announced the dlc and feeling so much nostalgia. The grinding, the builds, game is so amazing.
I think I’m gonna do a new one too, it’ll force me to relearn the game again, and I’d like to do everything with more experience. Thinking a Colossal weapon playthrough, might try to see if I can find the Zweihander on my own (I’m vowing to myself not to use the wiki for almost anything except some of the dungeons, which can be insanely difficult to navigate)
Great video Fex. Absolutely buzzing for dlc. I've 4 characters. 1 is an end game fresh build first playthrough. Let's go 🙌
Gonna make a character that kept Melina and Malenia alive just to see if they'll have any special dialogue. Maybe even progress Ranni's quest up to the point of beating Radahn since defeating Radahn is one of the prerequisites of the DLC.
I am keeping Melina alive for sure. Never forget the missable Doll lines in Bloodborne
You can't kill Melina???
@@durpanda123 i mean letting she burn the Erdtree and not appearing anymore
Theres an interview with miyazaki and he discussed that anything that you do in the base game (i.e quest, people, bosses) won’t affect the DLC, just wanted you to know throw this out there.
If you're able to beat Mohg in 8 weeks you should be fine
Watching this just made me feel good that I played Elden ring and got everything on my own. Everything you mentioned I have and got on my 6 play through of the game. I’m so ready for this DLC!😎
Good video with some useful tips, I think Ill wait for the DLC to come out with the new weapons, skills, abilities and balancing to then make my decision on what kind of build I want in a new fresh save
Hey man, nice video, looking forward to the new builds that will come from these new weapons!
Decided to start a new game with my primary character build. Hopefully by the time the dlc comes out I'll be ready for it
Thanks for the Video Cass! You guys are the best.
thank you for this video. it covered a lot of tiny details that are easy to overlook.
Just started my first NG+ and enjoying it so much more. Definitely prepping and already preordered. Never thought I’d love this game as much as I do for a first Souls game.
I'm taking my lvl 200 faith/strenght build into the DLC. Can't wait to see those new incantations!
I'm going in as the Loathsome Dung Eater and wreak absolute havoc on all that cross my path.
I’m going in as vyke 😂 bout to spread madness to the shadows
going as a blood god(not mohg, rivers eleonors but ig ill do mohg) and sged blood in a new land
I'm going in as a black knife assassin
This helped me realize just how flushed out my build is and how many items I had to get to be at that point. I'll start playing now to refresh myself.
I am at a new game + 4, I collect everything I'm ready for anything , about time this winter is coming. 😎
I'm in NG+4 as well with 100% each run but I wonder if the levels are going to make the DLC even harder. I know previous games did.
@@VideoStalker00so my lvl 320 ng+7 will. Be in for pain ?
Not sure. I'm around that same level but I'm in NG+4. I think the DLC might be slightly different than before@@Thecrimsonking01
@@Thecrimsonking01 Probably. I'm in NG+7 and the Caelid Bell Bearing Hunter one-shots me with regular sword swings and I have 70 Vigor.
I kinda doubt it but I’m hoping we get an extra talisman slot for this. Looks like there could be space and feels like that would be a great additional reward for the dlc. I always love upgrades that help your character grow or do more in some way other than just new weapon or armor (which yeah is also fun and can’t wait for those). It would even be cool to get a new mechanic like, now you can duplicate ancient dragon stones or something idk
Miyazaki already confirmed that the entry to the dlc is indeed through Miquella's withered arm
Wrong. It's through Miquella's withered anus.
As someone who just finished the main story on their 1st playthrough ( using your Nebula Knight build !!!! Which beat the Fire Giant 1st try !!!! ) I appreciate this information. I missed a lot along the way especially in the late game and was wondering if I should start NG +1. This video convinced me to stay in my current game and really sweep all the zones for these items I am missing :) Thank you for your hard work !
Nice. Another thing is that NG+ does reset the Great Runes you've got. So if you're attached to playing with any cool Great Rune, keep in mind you'll need to obtain it again in NG+.
@stwrath I haven't used any of them lol , I always forget about them. I have so many rune arcs haha just forget to equip a great rune
I would recommend going through NG+ and only doing the things you missed, all the main bosses and collecting any weapons/gear you might want. Also getting doubles of certain weapons you might want to dual wield. For example I got a double of every weapon you can dual wield that you only get one of in your first playthrough in my NG+ run like Rivers of Blood katana and Melanias golden alloyed sword cause I’m a Dex/Arcane build and leveled them all up. Also collected a bunch of smithing stones and bell bearings to go into the DLC with. Maybe browse through the wiki and see what weapons and gear that you may have missed that you want to go into the DLC with. Good hunting 😎
@@travihunchogreat tips thank you! I was doing a night comet build before swapping to the nebula knight, so definitely want to try duel welding staff of loss to make that comet super deadly!
Thanks so much for making a video on the subject as I was quite unsure about exactly how I should prepare. I just played for 100 hours or so right after release and haven't touched it at all ever since.
I think you should be fine just getting back in from where you left off, given you have beaten the game. Unless you want maximum freedom and use a NG character to use all the weapons without having to worry about requirements.
I'm definitely doing my first playthrough at least on NG+... Nice guide, as always, BTW!
I will be falling into the NG+ bucket, from when I last played. May Messmer have mercy on my soul 😭. Great vid btw
Haven’t played in a good while. So I started a fresh champ, and by the time DLC comes out I’ll be ready. Been brushing up on your previous vids lolol
I'm starting a new game this week to sharpen up my skills ahead of the DLC. Can't wait!
I'll start a new character shortly before release and complete most of all the regular content before entering the DLC.
Keep up the build guides!
So... dont just run there at level 20. Got it.
Im fired up!
I started a ng+ just got this! Highly recommend as it does make you fall in love with Elden Ring all over again.
First playthrough i went Dex/Fth this time I'm running Str/Int!! Hyped for bosses, weapons, and of course FextraLifes lulling voice hiding is through all of it.
See y'all in the shadow lands!
Thanks a bunch for that detail. I was thinking of the same thing over last weekend as I already was into NG+ when i completed the game initially and regretted the idea of getting to NG+ as I had Mohg already unlocked in NG. Thankfully, I completed Mohg & Radhan in NG+ just to make my way into the DLC. I was able to grind and get my character at a good level where I didn't struggle with any of the bosses, as I'm a mage. But considering I want to run Messmer's weapon, I might have to run and get the bell bearings to just be ready. Appreciate the insights for sure and I'm glad I didn't start a NG over my already built and ready NG+ character.
Long story short. Just replay the game
On my 9th playthrough
on my... 24th playthrough I think. I dont like doing NG+ in Elden Ring so all I do is make new characters and try to rush getting my weapons and armors for my build.
I’ll be completing Shadow of the Erdtree in NG+7
Great video exactly what I’m looking for
I’ve beat this game twice have all the tails and pretty much everything you can get, started a fresh character and realized it better to farm with my main then the new, I’m just playing NG+3
I'm def going for faith/arc build, wings like crucible knights? New dragon incantations? New blood spells? I want to be ready to use them all :D
Same. That's my favorite build on my best character already, but when I saw the Dragon Bear incant... my mind was made up
How to prepare for dlc: Check hard drive space. Pay for and download DLC.
hell yeah this is exactly what I thought about the last days ngl. Thx man!
finishing my first playthrough tonight and cant wait for the dlc , its going to be a blast!
Who else has a platinum trophy for this game
Got it 1-2 months ago
Starting NG+ now after platinum to prepare for the DLC. Can't wait
I have it on ps5 and pc, this game is too damn good. Really not too hard to get.
Got it in the beginning but I had cheesed Malenia at high level and with summon. So I went back and replayd the whole game no summons this time. Just beat Malenia after 7 hrs of grind on her.
Didn’t they say in an interview beating radan and moogh are the two requirements?
Yes
I just started a new character and play through the game again and up to Level 150 and go into the DLC with it first. Then i will go with my original character on Level 350 on NG +3 which has every weapon x2, armor and talisman and is ready to upgrade around 50 weapons to +24 to get all the stuff from the DLC and try out new weapons.
Thanks for the video. I just finished the game on PS5 and was debating on NG+ vs just going around and getting some of the things I missed on my play through. I'm not good so I think I'll just keep doing what I'm doing and hope to not get too stomped in the DLC when it comes out. Thankfully I can farm Albunarics until the cows come home if I need more levels.
Haven't played in so long summoning Torrent was an item and not a button press lol
Time to farm them mohgwyn albanaurics once again 😢
I just started the game in general so I’ll come back to this video
Perfect excuse to do NG+ with my first character and get to the endgame with 4 months to spare before the DLC…keep up the content man
Everyone: Here's how to prepare for the elden ring DLC
Me: there's no need to prepare for I believe in the power of unga bunga
My unga bunga prays at night to keep his faith strong👹
your post was a desision makin video for me. Just installed Elden Ring 5 days ago and i just finished it, got 90% achievements, all the seals / talisman, maxed out flasks and bought about all bell bearings and have about 10 ancients of each then i farmed my Bloodhound bloodloss build on the farmin spot with elden beast sword till i got to lvl 300. I was about to go to NG+ but just watched your video and realised im in the perfect spot to wait it out till DLC and jump right in while remaining on Base game difficulty.
Yeah I agree about using more advanced builds, I have two that are way over into journey 3 or 4. But based on a lot of your builds I also have a lot of 150 builds too. Definitely great advice for new players. Great vid👏👏👏👏
How I prepared. Made a new game. Sweated it out through a few bosses (two story bosses) margit and Godrick and smaller ones. Farmed 10m runes and now I'm level 193 😊
Yay. Now i just have to wait till june
I'm on NG+7 RL139 STR build for both invading and PvE. I already prepared my save for the DLC, beaten every boss up to Fire Giant (Don't want to burn Melina because she might be in the DLC) and collected everything/touched every grace and every stake for coop.
Going through the game again because of all the hype and it's crazy while being gone since launch ( did all endings played 6 characters ) I just breeze through even with some surprises so I'm excited as I'm getting to actual challenging. Bosses and get a real refresher I'll save melania as a warm up for the dlc lol and go into it w the idea of an extended endgame challenge
Thanks, really useful video.
Another good tip if you haven’t done so already. Get the Walking Mausoleum’s prepped because we’re most likely going to have a few more remembrance bosses. And it’s best to have them all knocked down and ready so you can go back to them and duplicate to get both items from the DLC remembrances. I’m also level 526 on NG+8. It’s gonna be a hell of a time 😂😂
I'm 618 on the first journey. Legit haven't thought of the game in a year. I went super overboard when the announcement came and mad3 a new character and did a super amount of grinding thinking it would come sooner than it did.
You can only use the dlc weapons, incantations, spells etc in the dlc area. Not the main game.
@@joshseraphim3902 where did you hear that?
Source? That’s never been the case with any of their other games.
@@freeskier31It isn’t the case here either, guy is talking nonsense
I have three characters I’ve made but I’m going in with my original character from launch, Nocturno Culto!!! I’m half way through new game plus with that character and at level 220.
I've never been so hyped for a DLC in all my life. Also looking forward to coming here for all the new DLC and OG game blend builds like i did in my original playthroughs 💪🏻💪🏻 June can't come quick enough.
My OG character is on NG at level 171. I'm at the stone platform right now with just need to pick an ending which I'll probably do after completing the DLC (or maybe just before and not start NG+). I did start a fresh character because pretty much everyone is dead in my OG save because I was worried about having less character interaction. Also for practice since pretty much everyone is dead. I did just beat Margit without a summon so I was pretty proud of myself for that. So I'll probably tackle with my OG character first , see how it goes and then tackle with my character just started since I have a few months to make progress with them
I seriously can’t wait for this !!
When the dlc trailer came out I got super motivated to do a completely new character and use a build I never use in souls games. Im making my first faith build and it’s so much fun. Im also still finding new things in the game after 200 hours
Get some black flame spells for endgame, maliketh, radagon/elden beast, and I think Godfrey all have super high faith resistance aside from black flame
From someone who loves faith and got fucked my first endgame with it 😂
If you’re doing faith go and kill maliketh. The black blade incant was the best I used in the game it shredded the Elden beast and radagon and should help you in the DLC
The whole thing takes approximately 300h to collect , weapons , armors , bell bearings etc etc
@@Paranoidsocialist any kind of flame if you ask me will be highly efficient , since there seems to be a lotta omens and omens theme stuff
I picked up elden ring late, about 6 months ago, timing was effing perfect tbh. I've got 180hrs, in ng+ and have most essential build items.
My body is ready.
Just getting my new character ready to dlc when listening/watching this video 😸
Yeah, I just started again. Samurai again but with the knowledge I gained from my first NG+.
100% and got everything I need beat it 12 times and I'm almost max level but the last 50 levels are incredibly time consuming just farming runes but got all talismans and numerous of them all the tears about a ton of golden seeds and sacred tears and can't wait for the dlc and new incants sorceries and weapons I'm sooo ready!!!
I feel like an experience of this depth really deserves a fresh, full playthrough. You'll get a lot more mileage out of the new gear from the DLC if you can enjoy it more in the main game, too.
I have a new game character near end game at level 125 and a NG++ character near end game with Mohg defeated. I stopped short of burning the Erdtree, just in case that has some relevance or aesthetical difference in the DLC area. The first DLC run will be with the new game to experience how the difficulty should properly feel.
One thing to note is that you no longer have to reacquire the miner's and somber's bell bearings in NG+ if you already acquired them all in your first playthrough.
Very nice and useful video. :)
You have to beat radahn before you can enter dlc (stated in an interview) so if mohg counts as a great rune enya then its easy to get that talisman slot, if not the just beat godrick on the way like beating margrit
I have so many maxed out characters and half beat playthroughs. I just got my perfect dex/faith and a perfect str/int build set up, so I'll be good for two, and if not I seriously have like a dozen other saves
I'm so hyped and did this checklist through try and error with my ng+ 😅 whetblades are another thing to take into consideration but for the rest I totally agree
I have just started my first play through of elden ring
Very excited
I'm all set for the dlc, just gonna hit the dlc from my new game ++. Then maybe play it thru my new file later, can't wait till June!
Honestly im just excited about new weapons spells and armor sets I can’t wait see what crazy builds come from this
I still have my save for my full playthrough, where I have pretty much everything because I didn't want to play the dlc in new game plus. I have recently started a new character, though, because I'm excited and thinking about Elden Ring again, but the main save will be the one I use. Think I'll probably respec before going into the dlc to try a different build. Can't wait for this dlc to drop.
Ill be going in with my Zoro build. Dual Katanas (Moonveil and Uchihitqna) I also use Gravity spells. Insanely fun build.
I just got Elden ring around December as my first souls game, had difficulty with godrick and rykard and the fire giant, when I got to mohg and lost to him twice I remembered I picked up a crystal tear that negates his ability, slapped that thang on and got the W instantly
I didn't know there was such a Crystal Tear, lmao, Imma pick it right up.
@@MaQuGo119 You get it by following yura's questline
@@MaQuGo119oh man there are about 10 to 14 of them. But make sure you find them by doing everything
I'll be going into the land of shadows as my first and only tarnished in journey 3, just seems like the best option in my case. Looking forward to it.🍷
So excited for this DLC. Gonna get my last trophy when I start playing to platinum it then head to DLC. So untill then will be Unicorn Overlord and Helldivers 2
I have a lvl 150 that I have used to 100% the game for the purpose of the dlc. All NPC quests are finished, I used the interactive map to clear every single area and dungeon, I have every item, weapon and armor. The things you have to do NG for I had my friend drop me. I’m so ready for this DLC
I will start a new game and relearn everything and load my completed character for the dlc
Got a maxed out character ready just replaying this masterpiece of a game! worth the wait!
Great video. I hope they make respec easier. Kind of disappointed that you have to do NG+ to get the respec items.
3:31 Important to know about the Talisman Pouch thing is that the DLC requires Radahn being beat as well, so realistically it's dealer's choice as to which great rune boss you do and since you have to defeat one anyways. Personally I say just go defeat Morgott in the capital since the 4th slot is right before him anyways and doing that will also unlock another chunk of the map for more weapons/armor options.
EDIT: completely overlooked the whole respec at Rennala factor so honestly her + Radahn would be the two earliest ones to get that pouch
This is an awesome thumb. They're always good but I love this one
I have everything that is out there to get 😮
I have 3 saves all NG+7, so I started a new save just to knock the rust off and try the dlc before on NG+7.. having a lot of ancient smithing stones got the better of me 😅
great topic!
I’m doing a new character with a build I felt looked cool. Dex/Faith with Scythe/Winged Scythe and lightning incantations. I started it a little bit ago and am now working my way through a bit of the area to get certain things. Upgraded weapons, bell-bearings, physick stuff, seeds and tears, etc.
Gonna probably peck away at it until release up to Mohg without actually killing Mohg before the DLC. I don’t wanna take my NG+3 character into the DLC myself.
I always end up doing Varres quest early on, but this time I might use the other way of reaching Mogh in the snowfield
