Mister Jack Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 You're pretty close to the end. Might as well just finish it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 Yeah, I know. I just really needed a break from it. I wasn't having fun with it anymore. Although getting distracted from it so heavily by Persona 4 was never the plan. I blame P4AU for that lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted April 19, 2022 Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 Huge list of changes in the latest patch. Colossal weapons have been buffed across the board, which was desperately needed. A few OP spells have been nerfed. No balance changes to you-know-who. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted April 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 Spell casting speed has been buffed too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted April 19, 2022 Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 Well now you get bragging rights for beating it before your build got buffed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted April 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 lol, except I beat it using fly swarm, which got nerfed. I'll take it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalCaveman Posted April 19, 2022 Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 With the buffs to some incantations and colossal weapons I'm now running Reveal hidden contents Maliketh's Black Blade with Beast Talisman, I can now almost match the Elden Beast in casting speed lol. I'll also respec to move my points from arcane into intelligence, maybe the Ruins Greatsword will be better than my current setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted April 19, 2022 Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 I do wish they had somehow nerfed that boss or at least changed its AI a bit. It's a pain how it's always running away from you in such a huge arena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Jack Posted April 21, 2022 Report Share Posted April 21, 2022 Oh no, the new patch added a really bad bug. Reveal hidden contents MALENIA HEALS HERSELF EVEN WHEN HER ATTACKS MISS NOW. FUCKING BULLSHIT. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMightyEthan Posted April 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2022 Yeah, no kidding, now that I know I can hold it down it devours my mana pool, though I'm already almost to the first Mind soft cap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalCaveman Posted April 21, 2022 Report Share Posted April 21, 2022 There's also a physick that gives you infinite mana for a couple of seconds (don't know exactly how long it lasts though), super useful to keep laser beam of deth running for longer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toxicitizen Posted April 21, 2022 Report Share Posted April 21, 2022 Damn, even Ethan has fully completed it before I even finished my first playthrough. The shame! Seriously though, what is wrong with me? Why did I fall off this game so goddamn hard? lol That's never happened with any other Souls game before, at least not since I finally managed to beat Demon's Souls PS3 for the first time.

TheMightyEthan Posted April 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2022 If it makes you feel better I save-scummed the three ending achievements so I didn't have to beat it three times, just once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted April 21, 2022 Report Share Posted April 21, 2022 Ah, tons of people do that. I did it for Bloodborne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted April 21, 2022 Report Share Posted April 21, 2022 I usually don't because NG+ is like half the fun of these games. Going back through the game in a fraction of the time and destroying every motherfucker in your way is always so cathartic. I feel like Elden Ring would go even faster, too, considering how much of it turned out to be optional content. Nothing wrong with backing up your save before key moments, though. It's no different from using multiple save files in literally any other RPG that has manual saves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalCaveman Posted April 21, 2022 Report Share Posted April 21, 2022 Meanwhile, I'm on my fourth playthrough (250+ hours in). NG+ is super fast, since you only need 2 great runes to move forward, if you bought enough upgrade materials before starting it, it goes by even faster.

TheMightyEthan Posted April 22, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2022 Yeah, I didn't properly prepare for NG+ because I just needed to start it to run and get the last legendary armament, so I'll probably regret that if/when DLC comes out. It was nice to wreck the starting area boss though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
