      The soft cap for strength is like 80. Same goes for dex. You can actually break past the 80 softcap if you have an S scaling weapon, but it isn't worth it, imo. Better to put 50 into strength and two hand a weapon so that your reach 75 str and have 25 points free to spend elsewhere.

      Most soft cap is at 60, certainly not 38. After 60 most stats have diminishing returns. Except for Arcane and Int which are worth taking to 80. The only time you should have 99 in anything is if you're level 600+ because atp you might as well lol

That final boss too, what a let down, all bc you all screamed about wanting that shitty fight again with a different version. But instead of getting G***** we got that shit, this is a giant let down. All the new weapons there’s like 2-3 each class, 2 fckin years?? The world is empty, the fragments are difficulty settings but everyone was saying how we didn’t want that now they encourage and praise it….cmon, actually be objective. Plus the balancing is impossible bc they’re so many mechanics and options they didn’t know what to do afterwards so it’s just crazy damage and high health pools with little to no openings to draw out the fight. Then you get ppl no hitting the bosses and everyone goes oh look see it’s possible dur like we are all supposed to play perfect…..the flaws are crazy and no one will acknowledge it

    Somthing funny is that I beat the boss that DSP rage quited to first try, and with not much experience in the game, or even the souls series in the first place as Elden ring is my first souls game. The fact that I, an inexperienced player who hasn't beat the game yet, can beat that boss first try, but a much more experienced person who has also been playing video games before I was born can't, I think his build might just not be very good, or he is someway doing something wrong.

      You already have a better philosophy about the DLC then DSP has about Fromsoft's entire Souls catalogue lol, don't give up, trust me you can find a lot of things in the DLC that can give you a massive power boost, there are a few more Larval tears in the DLC if you already used up the ones from base game, there are also tons more Ancient Dragon Smithing Stones and Somber Ancient Dragon Smithing Stones (mostly coming from the Dragons) so don't be afraid to upgrade and experiment with the new weapons, things like the Perfume Bottles and Great Katanas are extremely powerful if spec'd into, and don't be afraid to summon spirits, at first I told myself I wasn't gonna summon any spirits, but eventually I realized that this DLC is heavily encouraging us to use them with things like the revered spirit upgrades and the Cracked Tear that boosts their damage, even the "non-meta" spirits are nice to distract the boss or buff you, my personal favorites are Stormhawk Deenh, Perfumer Tricia, and the Mausoleum Soldiers, I know this was kind of long winded but I hope I inspired you to keep going!

    You also have to account for how poise damage heals over time if you don't hit the boss often enough, like trying to proc status effects. Additionally, he was complaining about magic not working against the undead dragon, in Elden Ring, it is shown multiple times that holy damage eviscerates undead enemies. You can craft Holy pots with some of the first cookbooks in the game. As for icing on this dragon cake, undead enemies have really high magic resistance next to magic enemies. If you are currently weak because you need more levels or more scadutree fragments, then go get more levels and more scadutree fragments, it's just that simple. Explore for scadutree fragments just like how you explored for smithing stones, utilize status effects like poison and rot for continuous damage so you can still deal damage while dodging.
    Here's another little bit of food for thought: the area in the dungeon and the area of the bug village are similar in the fact that they are both ruined and disgusting. Flies like dungeons, and dank swamps, just like how you can find soldiers in both forts, outposts, and castles. If you find an enemy in an out of place location, then that prompts you to think as to why this enemy is here, and sometimes you can be rewarded for killing that enemy. Other times, its story telling reasons as to why certain things are in certain places. Not everything needs to be designed for gameplay purposes.
    In short, "wa wa, dlc bad bc now I have to explore and I can't understand that some enemies are strong/weak to certain things". If he applied problem solving and experimentation to fighting that dragon, he would've found out how to kill way sooner. Cleanrot Knight Finlay for the win

    Rock sling is actually not half bad for staggering things unlike the rest of his spells. I'm not sure if it's still the king of stance breaking, but before patch 1.12 Wing of Astel had the highest poise damage out of all charged heavy attacks assuming both the melee and ranged parts hit. Nebula is one of the best poise breaking ash of wars as well and it comes out pretty fast. It's silly how changing his weapon could help so much without having to change his build or play style pretty much at all. Also I've heard that one new ash of war that's Carrian Grandeur but with a second horizontal swipe is just super busted right now. His build will probably be able to make great use of that thing if he got it.

    Ghostflame Dragons use Ghostflame. Ghostflame deals Magic and Frostbite damage. Frostbite, a holdover from Dark Souls 3, reduces damage reduction, stamina regen and defence.
    A Ghostflame Dragon most likely is tough against Magic damage and it is an undead dragon, so likely it's weak against fire, holy and lightning.

I havent really lost out on my damage output, but now i have like 10x the options for taking down enemies

My strategy is finding the boss, marking the map with the skull pin and continue exploring, until I find those seeds. Then I come back and have an easy time. I mean, he's not wrong there. If he doesn't enjoy exploring, that's on him, I personally love exploring more than boss fights.

  • @dannyjackson5356

    Specifically calling out a game whos made its name on creating a significant challenge for being too hard is a ridiculous complaint. Its fine if you do not personally like that design, but there are people that can do it proves this argument is shallow and moreso a personal feeling than a valid complaint about the design. Ive seen complaints ranginf rom the camera, the boss room, yada yada yada. I get these things can be frustrating but if this game taught me anything it is that relying on one trick to carry doesnt work for everything. For example Dodging and locking on are helpful tools learning the game, but jumping and unlocking, especially on large af bosses are game changers. If you see something is clearly tilted the tools are everywhere to balance it. If no one or hardly anyone has finished dlc i can see a valid argument for it being unfair, but that is simply not the case. Why can casuals do just fine but video game journalists who spend their career playing video games cannot. That much is just exposing all of these people as the con artists they really are. Funny part is some will be back in 6 months and change their minds and farm the views telling everyone how the dlc changed their lives.

    this is a review, essentially, of the dlc, because i play on playstation and thus can't put a steam review, which would be positive, btw, but the dlc does have issues. it's like the base game, flawed masterpiece.
    TLDR; despite it's issues, i'd definitely recommend it, and it's basically "more elden ring", which is exactly what we wanted.
    ^^^^^^
    the dlc is, for the first half at least, is amazing. the quality drops pretty heavily as you go on(just for the main bosses, not the side content), and the final boss is just bullshit. mechanic wise and lore wise. visually, one of the most awesome fights in fromsoft. the dlc has a good bit of that honestly.
    but overall? great dlc. a bit empty, too much reskins and boss reusing for my taste, and the lore felt bland as hell.
    but the weapons, the armor, the spells, most of the main bosses (fuck gaius. I can't dodge him for shit lol) were absolutely epic.
    i hated the final boss, and the story around it, the story around it both A, came out of nowhere, and B, feels extremely forced. but then, george RR martin had a hand in it, so that tracks, dudes a hack.
    but the only thing i think they did absolutely horribly on, was the scadutree fragments. the concept makes sense to help with dlc scaling, but having 50 of them scattered in the most random places and enemies, jsut felt like shit. especially because the vast majority of people are playing blind, not watching or looking up guides, so they won't know "oh, not only is it absolutely necessary, unlike how miyazaki lied and claimed it increased strategy (it doesn't it's just a numbers increase), but those random little graves with just a few ghost dudes and a white item? or that hallway filled with ghost dudes on your way through an end-dlc area? yeah, one single of those guys, only visually distinct due to some very hard to see sparkles has a fragment on him.
    that's really, really shit, because it's the core mechanic for power (that most people will absolutely need to get through the dlc), but the fragments are hidden throughout random side areas, a good portion of which are so far out of the way a lot of people won't even know about them.
    getting to bonny village, for example, is something i've noticed a lot of people don't know how to do. yet that leads to TONS of content, including multiple remembrance bosses.
    overall though, DLC is great so far. pvp is fucked beyond belief, but also a lot more entertaining (greatsword of damnation my guys. try it, it's fucking hilarious.)
    it wasn't too difficult. i first tried both the dancing lion and rellana, Bayle only took about 6 or 7 tries at 6 upgrades (beat him directly after rellana), messmer took about 10-15, rot scorpion lady with shit lore took me about 10-15 tries because i suck at enemies like her, and final boss took me maybe 30-40 tries because i was a stubborn idiot refusing to change my build or playstyle, and i don't parry.
    that said, i understand why people are angry. elden ring is by far the easiest, and most mainstream souls game. the core game is designed around bosses being slow, cautious, and delayed. it's part of why malenia was so hard for most people, she doesn't act like the rest of the game does.
    the entire dlc is more aggressive and quick than malenia. not as bullshit, usually, because they don't heal (final boss is definitely a LOT more bullshit, though for different reasons), but they have her aggression, if not more. and that means you need more skill, precision, and to think things through, and understand the bosses, something the base game lacked.
    still, loved the dlc, most remembrance bosses were great (gaius and scorpion bitch i hate.), the world is so beautiful, the armor and weapons feel and look amazing, as do the spells (though once again, faith gets literally everything. half of the int spells are even just more faith spells, and two of the pure int spells are completely useless. finger shield, and teleport. both garbage.).
    the "horror area" came out of nowhere, though i'm dissapointed in how short that section was, i was hoping it would go on a lot longer, like that entire manor could have been that way.
    the dungeons were so much better than the base game, though sadly there were only a couple, hence the dlc feeling so empty all the time.
    the "95 new weapons" feels like a lie, due to how huge the area is, and how little of it is used, combined with a good amount of those just being "new regular spear. new regular axe." so on and so forth.
    the "actual" new weapons (different movesets, unique effects, so on) were more than enough to make up for that due to their quality, but it still felt empty and dissapointing at times.
    overall, great dlc, would definitely recommend despite it's flaws. basically, it's more elden ring. and that's all we really wanted.
    didn't watch the video though, sorry, have a massive migraine at the moment so i don't even have my headset on, just randomly clicking things. i'll keep it open in this tab to watch later.

    He would have way easier time if he used Rakasha Great Katana but he's too stupid to try something else lol. Edit: Then again, maybe not... I mean at his "skill" level 😂
