    I think this dlc is the best they’ve ever made but it isn’t my favourite, old hunters still has my heart. But shadow of the Erdtree is incredible, and at times was very easy or very hard and every second was so fun

    Last boss seems to have insane variance. I went in blind him and beat him after 3 deaths. Fight becomes really easy with a holy resistant shield. And I’ve always been a shield wearer in any game I play… didn’t even understand he was supposed to be the last boss because he died so fast. Had to google “Shadow of the erdtree last boss” to realize it was all over. This was at Scadutree blessing 12 btw. So not carried by stats either. Just carried by shield.

    @EldenPeasant 23 дня назад +3

    I've done 4 playthroughs and Radahn is a nightmare for casters, 99% of your spells will not work in phase 2 because there's no spell that is fast enough to cast without getting hit and still do more than 1k damage. He's a build killer, without guarding phase 2 require you to frame perfect dodges which isn't possible for the majority of players. Your only hope is that your summon will take aggro long enough for you to cast a few high damage spells. I enjoy phase 1 but despite phase 2 more than Malenia random hyperarmor moves and Waterfowl Dance.

Radahn is so easy with a shield and bleed build that i dunno why people think hes so hard. I guess if you think shields are lame and its only viable to roll for a real playthrough then hes hard. At scadtree 20 hes a pushover I got to 20 in my newgame plus 1 run I did.

    My only legitimate hatred for this DLC is Radahn which I think most people can agree on, other than that every second felt like something I haven't experienced from this game and everything felt very to the core but upgraded ten times over, I feel like they outdid themselves comparing this experience to the base game which is already VERY good, Surely it isn't a masterpiece and my excitement for what I hadn't done in the DLC died with Radahn and Gaius. There are some bullshit fights in it and some bullshit moments in general, but the DLC delivered and I have no doubt it will be taken very seriously in the future for the rest of the industry on how to make a better DLC than the base game, an upgrade that is worth the price tag, you don't see anybody saying the price is unfair because this thing is packed and it delivers an almost all fronts, if you turn a blind eye to the ending it is nearly perfect.

    Once your around 150 or so your weapons should be doing their optimal damage at minimum. Higher levels just give you more options which is why the damage and defense didnt really matter past that.
    Overall the DLC was good, but anyone who calls it perfect is coping hard.
    Exploration was fun to get lost in, but you get a feeling of it being packed and empty at the same time. The bosses were a roller-coaster of good, bad, and bullsh**. Weapons and ashes are fun as hell and strong in a flowing sense rather than being clunky like the base stuff (like how your character temporarily learns how to swing a katana with double skash).

    No, the DLC sucks. Story sucks. Map sucks - huge and empty, compare with how the souls and core elden ring maps are made, where there's something interesting behind every corner (or a gank squad of 5+ enemies, dammit DS2).
    Some bosses are just dog shit. Oppressive if you don't summon, oneshotable if you summon. Last boss being easy mode if parried because he doesn't even get to do his dumb attack chains in p2 is peak garbage design.
    Overall expected better from FS. No fucking way i'm running around this entire empty map in NG+ just to beat the only couple of good bosses in this DLC again.
    5/10 at best, and that's only because messmer exists and map looks pretty.
