    i'm playing the DLC from a NG+ playthrough, and i'm definitely regretting it. Should've just started a whole new game before this.

    Does it scale with ng+ or just blessings

    I like the Fextra progression route map on the website but there’s some weird dotted lines leading from one area to another and I have no idea what those are. Is there an explanation of the map or a map key somewhere?

    Anybody else's mimic tear+10 feel moreso a tank now in this DLC? So far I think they are benefiting from the upgrade curency than the one for my character.

    does the dlc have any relevance for returning players who stopped playing mid-game a while ago and are starting a fresh save?

    This dlc on ng+3 is a doozy for sure. Everything does SOOO much dmg. Insane. Im lvl 226 with 60 vigor and just dummied. Having lots of fun tho. Just killed the boss for the first main area but i havny explored the left side of the game yet. Im hoping i didnt mess any quests up.
