Another reason why some players reported having a tough time with certain dlc bosses is that they used to have legit unfair start positions in their arenas. Before this was patched, Gaius and the golden hippo would effectively spawn camp players right at the fog wall.

There is actually a 3rd way of killing the Aging Untouchables, Fall damage. Once when I was spotted by 1 I tried running away, and in my panicked running I ran of a cliff. The Untouchable also ran of the cliff while pursuing me and I saw him die as I myself was dying, when I respawned I got his drop. The method is probably not very useful, but I thought I should point it out.
You could also kill them with destined death. It is one of the effects that is still applied through their invincibility. edit : nvm i didn't got to that part

Bruh thank you people always cap off leveling to 150 and it's always some misinformation "you won't be able to play multiplayer if you level up higher" which is blatantly not true
Man I get wrecked invading at level 200, but I did pretty well at 150. Not sure if it's just me having more spread out stats now rather than highly specified build.
The reason people cap levels at 125-150 is because that's the invasion range where most players are. Hence, most active PvP scene. Summoning friends or being summoned by friends has nothing to do with levels.
If you take the time and look he's missed the boat on that everything that needs to be shown has and anything secret is out there already on RUclips. HES MISSED THE BOAT ON THAT
Please don’t give up on the “Things You Missed” series. I’ve been waiting to watch them until they’re all out, and I’m on my 6th build running through the DLC. There’s still no doubt in my mind that you’ll manage to point out something I’ve overlooked.
I'm saddened to hear Dom won't be finishing his things you missed vids. I've been using them to make sure I don't...miss anything. OMG will I have to start using ign guides?
@@PunxsutawneyDave I was going to say cowboy as well, he does a blind playthrough and then the 100%. However the only person who is as entertaining as dom is blue lizard jello. I'm not kidding, go peep him out. I turn it on for background when I'm playing a different area just to see how he approaches it.
One thing I loved about the blessings is they make you noticeably stronger in the same way leveling does in the base game. I missed a cave early in the game. When I came back to it later at blessings 15, it was a cake walk. Just like if you return to limgrave at level 100. I love that enemies don’t scale up with you and you feel yourself getting stronger.
They do scale up but only across ng+ replays. Enemies have more hp and power in ng+ than in ng and ng+2 has more than ng+. This continues to get larger up until ng+7 and then stops increasing after that. I know you can mod it to make it get harder but not unmodded. RUclipsr Skumnut is playing at ng+1000 right now and it’s crazy.
One thing that so far nobody seems to have catched is that you can skip fighting one of the Ulcerated Tree Spirits in the Church District. Spawn at the eastern entrance, traverse the area, flush all the water, then teleport back to the entrance grace. The one UTS that spawns when you jump over to the cathedral rooftop will spawn above a bottomless pit and die, giving you its pickup.
You can survive the madness lantern dudes grab if you have really high focus stat. I was getting grabbed and often had a second try just from good madness resistant armor and talismans, and keep boluses ready too.
The DLC is still harder on NG+ runs, just to be clear. That's in addition to the DLC+ mechanic. I can see how someone would conflate leveling up with going through extra NGs.
I took my lev 500 character into the dlc, journey 8, I could not believe how different it was, did a few runs on that character as painful as it was, then I took a lower character that was on journey 2, it was like a different game with how easy it was
It always drives me crazy that ppl don't understand that NG+ effects the DLC...Most ppl don't play past maybe one or two NG+ cycles and don't really feel the effects of it at NG+7. The DLC scales only once on top of the scaling that gets applied with the NG+ cycle to a max of NG+7 + DLCNG+1 and I can promise, it puts you through hell not having a high Scadu fragment level AND being in NG+7...that was my first playthrough of the DLC.
Thanks again for the tips! I've been watching everything you make, and I've been watching the view numbers in hopes that they'll be enough to keep the videos coming. If it is at all worth it to you, I hope the "Things You Missed" videos will continue through the end of the DLC. Hope all is well for you, Dom!
if you stop doing things you missed i'm subscribing. that's the whole reason i followed 😢 i stalled going to the shadow keep because i was waiting on your video ...
My dad actually found out about the furnace visage drop from the soldiers, I just didn’t believe him because it only happened once and he moved on! He’s found more than I have because he absolutely will not move on from an area unless he’s figured out everything about it lol
You can kill npcs Ansbach and Freyja, they will become hostile after being attacked at showdows keep. Trying to kill them in their original position will just make them disappear like said in the video. Doing so will however mess up their questlines.
Freyja was relentless. I fought her at shadow keep and she was insane. Only NPC I've seen that will knock you out of resting at a grace and keep whipping your ass.
If you want to kill her and get her loot and shield, make sure to try it after giving her the note to get the shield. BUT if you dont kill right there before resetting the area she will move on.
Dom your walk throughs are my favorite and I was following along on the things you missed. Please continue it but if not can you tell me the areas yet to do so I can find an alternative solution? Thanks man!
Smoughtown and Domsroundtable the collab we didn't know we need , I heard smough mentioned you in he's latest video , great to see the creators working together instead of hating on each other props!
You can infinite farm nectar blood burgeons, to make the FP restoring lulling branch. They’re usually limited but all of the animals sleeping in the fissure depths before the putrescent knight drop em rarely about 1/50 ish in my experience

I absolutely love this stuff and I'm a father of three in a family of five with a full-time job so I don't have the time to discover a lot of this stuff on my own, so I rely on videos like this to help me get the most out of these games..
When fighting Cowboy said that his character for the Erdtree Playthrough was over 360 I knew that the gatekeeping was over and that we could do what we wanted Thank you so much for the tips about the visages!!
A jeez. The wiki said ANY soldier can drop those pot crafting masks. That explains why I got none from my farming attempt. Thanks for the info and makes a lot of sense. Good video title. I hate it when people write "10 secrets you don´t know yet". Thats 99% of the time a false sentence to the viewer. I simply never click those videos.
Man I really hope you continue the things you’ve missed series. I’ve always used your videos to 100% the base game and after finally getting the DLC, I’m all caught up with your vids. Had to watch someone else for some tips but I’d rather watch yours!
Blame the below average views on RUclips. I'm subscribed and have the notification Bell turned on and I am getting almost no notification when you post a video
i really wish sleep was done better. i really like the idea of the status effect.. but only being truly effective against godskin duo & very few way to apply it... feels like it was forgotten as soon as it was started, then threw that frost boss in front of St Trina cuz they remembered about her last second. would have loved a St Trina questline similar to Ranni's
I found level 65 is about the same difficulty as level 150 in the DLC as long as you collect scadutree fragments. The only difference is slightly less vigor, so maybe take one less hit and slightly less damage output, but genuinely, damage output is only slightly reduced.
I have never been as unhappy to know I'm approaching the end of game as I am of this. I'm trying to find anything and everything I can to prolong it. Elden Ring is truly an all-time masterpiece of a game, and in my 35 years of gaming, I don't think I've ever gotten so much enjoyment out of an experience. And I've played LoZ: A Link to the Past and FF4 a bajillion times.
First one is a thing in the base game aswell. The only fire monk that drops his sword is in the hero grave in the mountaintops of the giants is just 1 example.
Thank you for covering these, I definitely need to explore much more. I only got Elden Ring after the DLC came out and I've loved every minute of it (although some of my reactions to tough bosses etc would suggest otherwise), currently clearing NPC quests before going up against Radahn again (he smoked me the first time I tried so needed to grind a lot more) and already planning my NG+ playthrough of both base game and DLC.
You need to be careful, you actually can kill one npc. It's Freya, in the storehouse if you give the divine rite scroll to Ansbach without showing her first. You can assassinate her that way without facing her in the npc fight at the end.
I killed Freya in the Shadow Keep. I realized I failed her quest when Ansbac disappeared so I couldn't tell him about her. She was at the fire place and I attacked her. I got her gear less her shield.
There are only two scaling systems zone scaling and new game+. DLC+ gives every DLC enemy the ultimate zone scaling on the next run in contrast to the base game where Limgrave becomes a joke on new game +.
I started the DLC on Ng+3 with a SUPER OP character at 421 and had a blast playing through the DLC. If you want to play the DLC, don't let anyone scare you off, it is definitely a bit more difficult than the base game but it's still an improvement on the base game as well in my opinion. If you enjoyed Elden Ring then I don't know how you couldn't like the DLC.. and you get one of the best armour sets in the game right in the first new area at Western Nameless Mausoleum.
Ansbach and Freya can be killed inside shadow keep, did this to get his bow, can get both of their armor sets early this way as well as Freyas sword. This does however lock you out of getting Ansbachs scythe and spell at the end if his questline
Dude 18:31.. Dom.. Thank you for addressing this. You are a respected source of good info in the Elden Ring community and I don’t think enough people at your level are calling this out. It’s become wayyyy to big of a problem and yet such a simple solution consisting of two parts A: You do you. I do me. Live and let be. B: When offering advice, offer only what you have experienced. If you have not experienced the DLC all you have is speculation. That was great during the countdown but the game’s out now. Just play it and then give the advice 😆
Nice vid and work, even most things are known. But one big mistake is in it. You can kill Freya (an NPC) as soon as she is in Shadow Keep. I always do it because i want her armor set early and do a lot of RL1 runs and also ban her this way from the NPC fight before consort by killing her before. I haven’t tested it with other NPC‘s yet, but I assume that they are killable later on. I also have to mention that a fresh first DLC playthrough an NG is way easier than with NG7. Maybe they have fixed/changed it now or it is still like this, but at DLC release NG7 was significantly harder than NG. Just like in base game. I mean starting in the DLC the first time as NG7 vs NG. What those „experts and Gatekeepers“ maybe meant wasnt that the player level is too high and thats why the game is harder (absolut unlogic), i guess they meant. that it is way harder for them because they have done to much game cycles in the base game. I can, of course, only guess. All good to you Umbasa
For Tip #9, I killed Freya when she needed Ansbach's information to proceed in her path at the grace in the middle of the Specimen Store room.. because I thought I didn't need her to activate the bits where you side with Ansbach or Leda... and because of that I couldn't activate the fight picking Ansbach or Leda's sides... I havn't tried killing any of the other npcs, at the time I thought I was just getting rid of an annoyance during the last part... man did that backfire for my intended goal to get the questline stuff 💀
I just finished my first run of the DLC on my NG+2 journey. I guess that means the DLC+ mechanic made it a bit easier than if I had played it before and then again in NG+? I'm not sure I understand how that works. There were several times where I thought I had made a massive mistake and wouldn't be able to finish it (especially while fighting Radahn) but somehow I did it.
About the first part of tip 9 in particular, you *can* kill Redmane Freya early when she’s at the fireplace in the Specimen Storehouse. I am not aware of any other NPCs where this is the case.
Tip 9, in other words, play the damn game for yourself and don't listen what people say. In my case, once I beated the game, I started looking into secrets and stuff, but once I knew how everything works and discovered most of the stuff myself. In any case you know how Elden Ring is, there's a ton of secrets and unless you beat the game 3 or more times, you aren't able to get everything.
There is one bit of misinformation in here. I know for a fact at some point in the Ansbach questline I accidentally attacked him and he definitely took a chunk of damage. Not sure if he can actually be slain, and luckily he didn't turn hostile or anything, but just FYI. I think it was on the 1st floor of shadow keep.
This confused me as well. I was happy to get this duo when I heard of it but did not find them as strong as the Mimic or Black Knife Tiche. I wish they were. That said, I also didn't try them as extensively so it's possible I should have used them more than I did.
That is really funny. But you easily tell that someone has extremely little knowledge about the whole souls series, by telling that your level has any influence on any pve situation.
I was farming the furnace visage day one when i first got to that part 2 of the soldiers dropped 1 each, i farmed it a couple days, i thought was weird since no body brought this up till your video
death stare disable lasts till death and the moving orbs will stop moving when they return at their statue and lose form entirely becoming silvery black fog
i thought I was going mad because on my second DLC playthrough all the enemies seemed stronger. So there is a DLC+ scaling after all. Are you sure this only happens once because on 3rd playthrough they feel even stronger?
I figured out immediately that the npcs can't get killed. On my 1st venture into the dlc the furnace golem chased me to the grace and kicked up rocks that took out leda. I thought she was done for
I’ve been wondering about this “dlc+” thing. Good to know. My first dlc completion was on my ng+7 character and I think I’ve gotten most of the stuff… looks like it’s one more level of scaling ahead for me, then 😂
torrent is scared because madness is the only thing that can truly kill him. this happens in the tree finger ending when torrents ring breaks and you can hear him scream before Melina vows to hunt you down.
There are more than 5 million copies of the dlc. The 5 million number was how many copies sold during the first week. There have probably been another 5 million sold somewhere close to that. Level scaling those “elitists” refer to is probably in reference to pvp. You are correct when you say the pve ng+ scaling is the same no matter what level youre at. However your level does influence pvp. A level 150 player can invade around that same level but not 200 or higher. You cant invade level 200 unless you are at level 167 (?? - I think that’s the threshold) but you then can’t invade level 150. I havent tried to kill npc allies in the dlc but in the base game you can pimp hand and/or kill just about everyone. Some will come back if you do but you have to use celestial dew if you do it enough to anger them. Theyll try and pimp hand you back until you……..dew…it……… If you cant do this in the dlc then that’s a huge change.
You definitely can kill freya before she joins the leda fight. But you have to do it before you give her the note from ansbach at the shadow keep. And you can get her loot from her corpse, but not the shield. I know because i did that twice. Once killed because ansbach refuses to give me a note (got all loot except shield). She will respawn at that location even if you die. Another time i attempted to kill her after giving her the note. I died and she moved on when i respawned.
I just wanted to say that I absolutely use Summons and cooperators. I also use any cheese strat I can find. It isn't a skill issue, I just don't have the time to wipe on a boss 300 times, just to tell some whiny elitist I can play "their" game. Go raid Vanilla WoW if you want to waste your time.
I'll be honest the hanging pots with the bell bearings kind of piss me off. It blows my mind that something like String wasn't able to be bought any where in the base game when it really should have.
oh no im not scared to level up "making the dlc harder" i just cant save up enough runes without getting my cheeks separated so bad ones in the base game while the other ones in the dlc
Ok, but how do you even do any damage to those furnace golems to begin with? The ones with the leg armor aren't taking any damage at all no matter how many times I hit them. Your video shows one without leg armor, while you're talking about the ones that do. It's impossible to duplicate your instructions on the ones you're actually talking about.
Came here to say this. Was able to get more than enough to kill all the furnace golems. Never needed to farm a crafting item so I randomly thought to respawn there since I wasn't familiar with how ER field drops work.
The trees of Shadow Land are the exact copies of the spirit trees found in Forbbiden Land and the shape of Shadow Land map loosely resembles Forbbiden Land.
Regarding the npc killing, I killed Freya in shadow keep. Not sure if it's because I'm on a second playthrough or it's just because she moved from her original spot.
Man I like the things you missed series dude. Black mid wukongs hype drain will die down very very soon due to it being so mediocre. I’m pissed I spent $60 on it I should’ve known better but Elden ring has more longevity than a flash in the pan game dude. But I get it, you gotta make your money & I respect that

Not just the visages, actually all "exceedingly rare to find" crafting materials are farmable somewhere from some enemy in the game.
A jeez. The wiki said ANY soldier can drop those pot crafting masks.
That explains why I got none from my farming attempt. Thanks for the info and makes a lot of sense.
Good video title. I hate it when people write "10 secrets you don´t know yet". Thats 99% of the time a false sentence to the viewer. I simply never click those videos.
I used ancient death rancor to kill the armored furnace golem lol
Man I really hope you continue the things you’ve missed series. I’ve always used your videos to 100% the base game and after finally getting the DLC, I’m all caught up with your vids. Had to watch someone else for some tips but I’d rather watch yours!
Blame the below average views on RUclips. I'm subscribed and have the notification Bell turned on and I am getting almost no notification when you post a video
Yeah! I clicked on this notif and was pleasantly surprised to hear Dom's voice again. The system is quite a bit fcky 😅
Same. RUclips has a really bungled notification system.
i really wish sleep was done better. i really like the idea of the status effect.. but only being truly effective against godskin duo & very few way to apply it... feels like it was forgotten as soon as it was started, then threw that frost boss in front of St Trina cuz they remembered about her last second. would have loved a St Trina questline similar to Ranni's
When talking about the npcs not being killable, you state not to hit bayle like he’s an npc? I’m confused. Do you mean Igon?
Yeah I noticed that too I’m assuming he means the absolute gigachad legend that is igon
He meant igon for sure, I can confirm he is the only one that can really be attacked and killed
@@nis_gia why attack friend
@@pollos1 made a backup just to see, never killed and never will kill igon
@@nis_gia okay thats good
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and that of others, keep making the Things You Missed series I thoroughly enjoy them too!
I found level 65 is about the same difficulty as level 150 in the DLC as long as you collect scadutree fragments. The only difference is slightly less vigor, so maybe take one less hit and slightly less damage output, but genuinely, damage output is only slightly reduced.
Already knew them all, having beaten the dlc 8 times already, i should have expected it… good vid tho!
On the basilisk death stare dungeon, you can also wear the mimic veil to pass by without and death blight buildup.
I have never been as unhappy to know I'm approaching the end of game as I am of this. I'm trying to find anything and everything I can to prolong it. Elden Ring is truly an all-time masterpiece of a game, and in my 35 years of gaming, I don't think I've ever gotten so much enjoyment out of an experience. And I've played LoZ: A Link to the Past and FF4 a bajillion times.
First one is a thing in the base game aswell. The only fire monk that drops his sword is in the hero grave in the mountaintops of the giants is just 1 example.
Thank you for covering these, I definitely need to explore much more. I only got Elden Ring after the DLC came out and I've loved every minute of it (although some of my reactions to tough bosses etc would suggest otherwise), currently clearing NPC quests before going up against Radahn again (he smoked me the first time I tried so needed to grind a lot more) and already planning my NG+ playthrough of both base game and DLC.
Thanks for the first secret.
It's like farming arteria leaves from the troll on the mountain tops of the giant.
You need to be careful, you actually can kill one npc. It's Freya, in the storehouse if you give the divine rite scroll to Ansbach without showing her first. You can assassinate her that way without facing her in the npc fight at the end.
I killed Freya in the Shadow Keep. I realized I failed her quest when Ansbac disappeared so I couldn't tell him about her. She was at the fire place and I attacked her. I got her gear less her shield.
I’ve started SOTE with levels 111, 167, and 430 characters. I can absolutely confirm that level scaling does not exist.
There are only two scaling systems zone scaling and new game+. DLC+ gives every DLC enemy the ultimate zone scaling on the next run in contrast to the base game where Limgrave becomes a joke on new game +.
I started the DLC on Ng+3 with a SUPER OP character at 421 and had a blast playing through the DLC. If you want to play the DLC, don't let anyone scare you off, it is definitely a bit more difficult than the base game but it's still an improvement on the base game as well in my opinion. If you enjoyed Elden Ring then I don't know how you couldn't like the DLC.. and you get one of the best armour sets in the game right in the first new area at Western Nameless Mausoleum.
The first tip is an old one
Ansbach and Freya can be killed inside shadow keep, did this to get his bow, can get both of their armor sets early this way as well as Freyas sword. This does however lock you out of getting Ansbachs scythe and spell at the end if his questline
Dude 18:31.. Dom.. Thank you for addressing this. You are a respected source of good info in the Elden Ring community and I don’t think enough people at your level are calling this out. It’s become wayyyy to big of a problem and yet such a simple solution consisting of two parts
A: You do you. I do me. Live and let be.
B: When offering advice, offer only what you have experienced. If you have not experienced the DLC all you have is speculation. That was great during the countdown but the game’s out now. Just play it and then give the advice 😆
PEST THREAD SPEARS works really well vs furnace golems
If you get the Rominas pest thread spears and use it on the Giant Flame guys it puts them down pretty quick, even if you target the head ones.
Nice vid and work, even most things are known. But one big mistake is in it. You can kill Freya (an NPC) as soon as she is in Shadow Keep.
I always do it because i want her armor set early and do a lot of RL1 runs and also ban her this way from the NPC fight before consort by killing her before.
I haven’t tested it with other NPC‘s yet, but I assume that they are killable later on.
I also have to mention that a fresh first DLC playthrough an NG is way easier than with NG7. Maybe they have fixed/changed it now or it is still like this, but at DLC release NG7 was significantly harder than NG. Just like in base game. I mean starting in the DLC the first time as NG7 vs NG.
What those „experts and Gatekeepers“ maybe meant wasnt that the player level is too high and thats why the game is harder (absolut unlogic), i guess they meant. that it is way harder for them because they have done to much game cycles in the base game. I can, of course, only guess.
All good to you

Tip 7 addendum, you don't need to connect with your parry to be able to harm them. If you hear the sound you can immediatly deal damage.
For Tip #9, I killed Freya when she needed Ansbach's information to proceed in her path at the grace in the middle of the Specimen Store room.. because I thought I didn't need her to activate the bits where you side with Ansbach or Leda... and because of that I couldn't activate the fight picking Ansbach or Leda's sides... I havn't tried killing any of the other npcs, at the time I thought I was just getting rid of an annoyance during the last part... man did that backfire for my intended goal to get the questline stuff 💀
you can definitely kill the hornset grandam, there is even different dialouge depending on when you do it (before/after beast or messmer)
I just finished my first run of the DLC on my NG+2 journey. I guess that means the DLC+ mechanic made it a bit easier than if I had played it before and then again in NG+? I'm not sure I understand how that works. There were several times where I thought I had made a massive mistake and wouldn't be able to finish it (especially while fighting Radahn) but somehow I did it.
Black flame also makes the basilisks in the catacombs stop giving you deathblight.
Oh dude the destined death tip on the weird eye things is golden. Thank you!
Oh also the darts on the red butt golems.
About the first part of tip 9 in particular, you *can* kill Redmane Freya early when she’s at the fireplace in the Specimen Storehouse. I am not aware of any other NPCs where this is the case.
Tip 9, in other words, play the damn game for yourself and don't listen what people say.
In my case, once I beated the game, I started looking into secrets and stuff, but once I knew how everything works and discovered most of the stuff myself. In any case you know how Elden Ring is, there's a ton of secrets and unless you beat the game 3 or more times, you aren't able to get everything.
You can kill the both of the Armored Leg Furnace Golams with Comet Azure and hiding behind a part of the rocky cliff.
There is one bit of misinformation in here. I know for a fact at some point in the Ansbach questline I accidentally attacked him and he definitely took a chunk of damage. Not sure if he can actually be slain, and luckily he didn't turn hostile or anything, but just FYI. I think it was on the 1st floor of shadow keep.
18:55 "please make sure you don't accidentally kill Bayle"
What? Bayle isn't a npc
I think he meant Igon and just misspoke.
Where did the thinking around Jolan and Anna being one of the most powerful ashes? They've been pretty poor in my playthroughs.
This confused me as well. I was happy to get this duo when I heard of it but did not find them as strong as the Mimic or Black Knife Tiche. I wish they were. That said, I also didn't try them as extensively so it's possible I should have used them more than I did.
@@douglasaccat they die really quick when I've used them. I maxed them out too.
That is really funny. But you easily tell that someone has extremely little knowledge about the whole souls series, by telling that your level has any influence on any pve situation.
I was farming the furnace visage day one when i first got to that part 2 of the soldiers dropped 1 each, i farmed it a couple days, i thought was weird since no body brought this up till your video
death stare disable lasts till death and the moving orbs will stop moving when they return at their statue and lose form entirely becoming silvery black fog
i thought I was going mad because on my second DLC playthrough all the enemies seemed stronger. So there is a DLC+ scaling after all. Are you sure this only happens once because on 3rd playthrough they feel even stronger?
I killed the insect accidentaly... The white insect, 'cause I thought it was an enemy xD
the crystal dart thing is dope.
I’d prefer to believe those 6 soldiers are the reason the note was written
I figured out immediately that the npcs can't get killed. On my 1st venture into the dlc the furnace golem chased me to the grace and kicked up rocks that took out leda. I thought she was done for
Those pots were the only crafting materials I've made, just to kill 2 Golems. Crafting in ER is so out of place.
I’ve been wondering about this “dlc+” thing. Good to know. My first dlc completion was on my ng+7 character and I think I’ve gotten most of the stuff… looks like it’s one more level of scaling ahead for me, then 😂
There’s so much in this game. I’ve missed story lines and so much more. I’ve beat it and about to go into ng+1
I was irritated when I got knocked off Torrent but I understood once I learned Frenzied Flame kills spirits.
torrent is scared because madness is the only thing that can truly kill him. this happens in the tree finger ending when torrents ring breaks and you can hear him scream before Melina vows to hunt you down.
There are more than 5 million copies of the dlc. The 5 million number was how many copies sold during the first week. There have probably been another 5 million sold somewhere close to that.
Level scaling those “elitists” refer to is probably in reference to pvp. You are correct when you say the pve ng+ scaling is the same no matter what level youre at. However your level does influence pvp. A level 150 player can invade around that same level but not 200 or higher. You cant invade level 200 unless you are at level 167 (?? - I think that’s the threshold) but you then can’t invade level 150.
I havent tried to kill npc allies in the dlc but in the base game you can pimp hand and/or kill just about everyone. Some will come back if you do but you have to use celestial dew if you do it enough to anger them. Theyll try and pimp hand you back until you……..dew…it………
If you cant do this in the dlc then that’s a huge change.
I started SotET at level 305. It was neither too hard or too easy. It was Fromsoft.
After level 200 you're dealing with such reduced growths that levels don't really matter anymore.
Please finish the things you missed series
You definitely can kill freya before she joins the leda fight. But you have to do it before you give her the note from ansbach at the shadow keep. And you can get her loot from her corpse, but not the shield. I know because i did that twice. Once killed because ansbach refuses to give me a note (got all loot except shield). She will respawn at that location even if you die. Another time i attempted to kill her after giving her the note. I died and she moved on when i respawned.
I just wanted to say that I absolutely use Summons and cooperators. I also use any cheese strat I can find. It isn't a skill issue, I just don't have the time to wipe on a boss 300 times, just to tell some whiny elitist I can play "their" game. Go raid Vanilla WoW if you want to waste your time.
Jolan and Anna spirit ash is not even in the top 10 strength wise. They’re slightly better than garbage at +10.
I'll be honest the hanging pots with the bell bearings kind of piss me off. It blows my mind that something like String wasn't able to be bought any where in the base game when it really should have.
oh no im not scared to level up "making the dlc harder"
i just cant save up enough runes without getting my cheeks separated so bad ones in the base game while the other ones in the dlc
Ok, but how do you even do any damage to those furnace golems to begin with? The ones with the leg armor aren't taking any damage at all no matter how many times I hit them. Your video shows one without leg armor, while you're talking about the ones that do. It's impossible to duplicate your instructions on the ones you're actually talking about.
I think starlight shards can be formed from the Yoda like enemies in C-Cost too!
The NPCs name is Igon he’s not yelling his own name lol
Furnace Visage respawn at ruins of unte.
Came here to say this. Was able to get more than enough to kill all the furnace golems. Never needed to farm a crafting item so I randomly thought to respawn there since I wasn't familiar with how ER field drops work.
If anyone is complaining that some of the bosses are too hard, just suck it up and pull in a helper into your game
how do you summon a blue
When the npc is inside messmers castle, you can kill them.
The trees of Shadow Land are the exact copies of the spirit trees found in Forbbiden Land and the shape of Shadow Land map loosely resembles Forbbiden Land.
Hey Dom, Please can you do a Faith / Arcane build using dragon communion incantation and Eleonora’s Poleblade. Thank you for your helpful content 🩵.
Regarding the npc killing, I killed Freya in shadow keep. Not sure if it's because I'm on a second playthrough or it's just because she moved from her original spot.
Notification bell working well here. I receive all your video's notifications.
Is consort radahn harder for those in ng+ and up or is he only harder when you do the dlc again?
Deaths Poker trivialises the golems, just kite them forwards and backwards over the ghostflame.
Man I like the things you missed series dude. Black mid wukongs hype drain will die down very very soon due to it being so mediocre. I’m pissed I spent $60 on it I should’ve known better but Elden ring has more longevity than a flash in the pan game dude. But I get it, you gotta make your money & I respect that
7:48 Yes.😐
I haven't watched any videos because I still haven't started the dlc...
Moe's shackle works on the hanging pots as well
Oh nice, ty for the tip
