So many references to guts. I'm just happy to have a few irish accents in the game. Lots of irish references in the base game like siofra river. Siofra (she_oh_frah) is irish for fairy. Goal is old irish for jail. Physic is old irish for nutrition/health. Even torrent is a reference to the spirit horse that took the irish pagans across the fog to Tír na nóg(teer-nah-no-g) which was essentially the afterlife
Rellana may be the best case of "playing as the boss" I've seen in a souls-like, barring player enemies. The armor looks amazing, the twin ashes of war let you pull off her most signature, show-stopping moves. The requirements of her swords mean you basically need a dedicated build, but it also happens to be a *lot* of fun. The stat split also allows for access to a pretty decent repertoire of Sorceries and Incantations, with Frenzied Flame Seal and Staff of the Great Beyond being standouts in a "finished" build for NG+.
I am pretty sure that the black steel greathammer passive doesn't scale with the holy affinity, just holy weapon buffs like sacred blade, so you might as well use the heavy affinity on it for better dmg.
I love the Black Knight armor. My favorite chest piece was the Altered Ronin chest, but I farmed the black knights (don't know if they drop the shield or if you get it elsewhere) and the chest looks amazing. Changed into it right away.
I got the shield on that beginning church instead of the hammer. You can farm the shield after the bridge at the beginning on the left side there's a black knight you can farm over and over.
I found a incantation called electrocharge. Calls down lightning thats has lasting aoe and charges attacks. Think its meant for brawler gloves. And also poison hand
@JUDPT walking around wildlife I now realize it does tick damage within proximity and infuses ur attacks with lightning for bout a minute or so. It doesn't stack with flame grant me stenght
The weapons I was most excited for was the backhand blades that gives a cool assassin type vibe and they do not disappoint they are really good. I was also exited for beast claws and dry leaf arts but once I got them they felt underwhelming to me.
How's the damage on them? I am running a dex/arc build and found the weapons yesterday. I was thinking about upgrading them and giving them occult scaling.
@@MrHellweasel well idk how they are going to be for you because I’m max lvl but for me they are good damage for such fast attacks and if you run a frost or bleed build on them with the rotten wing talisman they get 10x better
In my first play through in elden ring base game and entering dlc before radagon and elden beast coming back for them after i finish hunting down my melee arcane weapon that i’m searching for in dlc to compliment mohgs spear and will be back for them with a bang this game is god tier
Stats still matter? I assumed the only reason for runes in the DLC was for buying stuff since the damage is exclusively tied to the DLC leveling system from what I understood.
The best statspread probably will be 40/40/40/40. However strength and dexterity are primary focus. They're very much endgame weapon. Entire combo consume a lot of stamina and ash of war isn't cheap.
@@TylerKadle all the spells. night comet shard shreds a lot of enemies in this DLC as they are rather dodge happy (with a BUNCH of human "invaders" as well) and having healing without red flasks helps a lot too. not to mention the buffs like black flame protection.
Dragon-hunter katana is a disappointment for me. No arc scaling and the weapon art does not penetrate shields. I think the normal great katana (or potentially some of the other great katanas I have not found yet) are better and more versatile.
Dragon Katana weapon art tends to miss a lot if it's not fully charged. Waiting for a patch lol. Btw I wish It had better WA like the slash and few more strikes to poise break.
@@TylerKadle yeah I still use my Rivers of Blood WA to clear a lot's of things even some bosses as it comes out very fast and it's great when bleed procs. I think great katanas are more for tankish build so you can trade hits.
but those are all early game weapons can't be so much better then later in dlc why even bother making those video? (Edit: my bad didn't see the Title but still I want to spoiler myself with the real juice).

Gotta be honest I’m disappointed with the dlc. The scaling of damage dealt and damage taken is terrible. They have literally made my level 478 character null and void. I get 1/2 shot and do little to no damage even with blessings. Loved Original Elden Ring but I hate the dlc. The scaling and boss fights so far off the mark. Not impressed at all. It’s parked until they fix the scaling and if they don’t fix the scaling then it’s lights out. Another company who does not respect time invested. And they do not want people playing co op. Put this on the product when you sell it to us so we know exactly what we are buying.
I feel you but you really shouldn’t give up and with enough upgrades you will be doing a good amount of damage to bosses but if you really need help just use a mimic and upgrade the mimic as well to make it stronger
@@TrayGolden my point is they shit on my grind big time. Not a cool move. My opinion of Elden Ring has changed a lot they stood apart from other games but have fell into a Diablo 4 bracket with that lazy move.

Rellanas sword is definitely very good but there's another one you get off of demi-human Queen called star lined sword and it is also very amazing. Not sure yet which is better
There are going to be a bunch of people getting really upset going through the fog rift catacombs LOL you definitely have to use your brain LOL I didn't die at all until I got to the boss but he definitely got me a couple times
Little tip for my fellow tarnished, the perfumer talisman does increase the dmg of the perfume armaments.

@@JUDPT yeah it's such an underrated early game build. I want to farm that shield that goes with it too

This might be a far shot, but do you have the stats to wield it?
The Blackgoal Knight is literally Guts from Berserk. Like it's got to be an official nod to the manga at this point.

I beat the final boss with the backhand sword, that skill saved me a lot of times to be honest.
My favorite weapon in the game.
I want the sword of light, it looks so cool and the weapon art seems like it's a good defence.
Going into this at ng+8 was a bad idea… I’m 60 vigor and that first black knight with the hammer can 2-3 shot me 😳
I'm on just NG and it's the same for me he hits me in 2 with 52 vigor, the scaling is weird but scadutree shards make it a bit more bare able
And THAT is why I held off on NG+ When I heard that DLC was dropping.
im not even on ng+ still getting 3 shotted by everything the dlc is no joke
It’s like that for everyone
You need to get the dlc upgrade items everyone is getting spanked until they find them.

Keep in mind that you don't always get the Black Steel Great hammer from that Black Knight, bc he can also drop his Black Steel Great Shield instead.
I was gonna say not including spear of the impaler was a crime till I realized it was early dlc weapons only lol

do you know how to get the velvet st trina weapon
The new armours sets are insane! But main game weapons are better for me!
What is the headgear you have when your using rellana’s gear and weapon?
Looks like the Navy Hood. If so, that's base game. It's in Altus Plateau.
How much str and dex for rellana before switching to faith and int

Don’t bother amping str/dex. Maybe 40 dex at most.

There he is been waiting thank you

I feel bad for everyone whose not yet travelled to the shadow realm. It’s incredible
It's not a guaranteed drop. I picked up the shield on that church twice with 2 different characters. I never got the hammer.
How do you find the blacksmith?
armour of solitude looks rly similar to berserker armour
It really feels like the dlc is so dex faith focused it’s looking pretty bad for me as a strength int user
Jackscepticeye is rocking a bonk build and is doing well so I imagine you will do well
Dragon katana great sword. The skill can be charged.
Rellana's swords suck. No poise damage, so any enemy thats not a low tier shitter is going to whip your head while youre twirling.

So you not going to tell us how you got ranallas amor because after I defeated her I dent get any armor
1) You did not defeat her, your NPC summon did and that don't count.
