just got this and tried today. thing is hard as hell and required multi player will try again see it I can figure it out |
|
just read the patch notes from a couple days ago. looks like they made exp better for solo running. damn its still hard as hell if you guys are on ps5 and want to try grouping I am up for it. but damn I suck right now running solo hoping to get a couple decent ritual things been running wylder and just tried executor. executor starts with a bleed weapon so going to try a few more runs with it ETA I don't really like the game mechanics but I paid $55 for this game I want to get my moneys worth |

up to 4 bosses beat now. did a fun run yesterday with 3 iron eyes. we beat the 4th boss reading a guide on iron eye soloing. going to try tomorrow to see if I have the relic needed guy says run beginner bow with poison or bleed and race to kill bosses. upgrade bow to +3 as fast as possible 2 hand the bow and hold L1 to aim at the head going to try this all out. I didn't know about being able to aim |
|
Looking at the failed group run history in the codex menu, it seems most failures occur because people don't level or upgrade weapons and don't bother looking at boss weakness, resistance and absorption. The game maps out where the optimal drops are going to be located. There is no "go upgrade your weapons dummy" gesture, but there should be. |

I had one this morning I swear was a new guy never played. at end of day 2 he was level 6 and died a ton of times trying to clear everything away from us other 2 people. I am consistently getting to night 2 most every run solo now and beat the boss one time. getting even semi decent relics is painful 4 bosses beat 4 to go failed on final boss with about 10 groups so far. failed darkdrift a bunch of times and cant even get a group to do the remembrance version for iron eye failed ice dragon 2 or 3 times and failed equilibrius 4 or 5 times thinking about trying to solo the wylder remembrance in the city of night and hope it spawns for the silver tear |
|
sweet. I got the final boss yesterday and the white dragon today only have 2 bosses to go. multiple fails on both darkdrift equilibrious the relic from the final boss I'm using on iron eye and running through 3 bows getting a new element got the 3 different boss kills in a row trophy today.. pain in the ass working on the vessels obtained trophy now. only 2 to go |
I know a thing or two because I've seen a thing or two.  Attached File I think I'm done with Nightreign. Sekiro is still my favorite. If Nightreign was more like Returnal with Bloodborne chalice dungeon layouts, I probably would play more While I greatly appreciate the lack of fall damage, it still requires a lot of running from place to place.  Maybe they should add a follow target option. |

I hated sekiro. it is the only from software game I couldn't platunum I even platinumed demons souls 5 times couldn't get past the stupid button pounding to counter attack. never made it past the 3rd or so boss. the poison bitch in some building I'm 3 trophies from platinum. beat 1 Lord for each character class. looks like people are reading this wrong. some people are saying each character only has to beat any one night boss purple items in every slot and complete augur raid |
|
last update added harder version of the gaping jaw boss and a new currency you get after beating it still have not killed it yet I am assuming there will be harder versions of them all added eventually still trying to get the remembrance version of darkdrift too for ironeye seems impossible to get a group for it. thinking solo will be the only way but I suck solo so not sure I can do it |
|
finished platinum a few days ago. found info on how to get the raid encounters to spawn which was the last trophy got 4 remembrances completed and working on revenant now the enhanced boss encounters are hard as hell never beat the gaping jaw on but got the darkdrift one one time |
|
Master Executor and then go back and Platinum Sekiro. The final boss and the hidden bosses in Sekiro are so epic. Deflect > Parry Sekiro only trips you up if you try to.play it like Dark Souls or Bloodbone. That's why they added the undying samurai to practice everything. Every boss in the game is a checkpoint to see if you learned a certain technique. |

New Enhanced Gnoster is the easiest enhanced boss so far. Tip If you form a party you can then communicate and duplicate every item in your inventory with a well-timed verbal countdown and pick up. You and your teammates can make as many copies of weapons, items, relics etc. This includes Wending Grace. Make as many as you carry. :D |

Beat Enhanced Adel with a team of 3 Ironeyes in less than 4 min. All level 15 with legendary upgrade from crater. I hit him with my Ultimate when he was going to go full tornado, and he never got past his opening phase 2 moves etc. I farmed Enhanced pest a bit and have a surplus of Sovereign Sigils and about 200,000 murk. I still haven't gotten the sword that allows a one shot kill early enough. I did give it to a Wylder in a duo after someone ditched. It worked as intended on Pest. After that we formed a party together and whooped it again with a guy from.Bulgeria that had a good route. It is a lot easier when you can communicate. You can dupe items by standing close and spamming pickup upon dropping the item.to be duped. We didn't need it anyhow. The key to that was to kill the moth and beetle at the sane time. After that, you would only fight the possessed boss until the main boss was dead. It shaves off about 5 min to the fight. I guess I'll play Lies of P until something new comes out. I bought it on sale a while ago, but haven't played it. |

I did get the legendary lion bow but it was too late to stack the attack bonus. if you are on ps5 we can team up. sucks no cross play I have been playing with a guy in Texas when he isn't working. communication is key I have spent every rupee that dropped on relics hoping to get just one useful relic. still nothing to show for it. been enjoying the raider lately pinnochio was a great game. I'm hoping they make the game they hinted in the end credits. beat the game to find out........ i platinumed the game soon after it came out |
 Level 1 Noklateo - Early Legendary Farming Route

I just whooped Everdark Sovereign Libra solo with no deaths. Level 15 Wylder using crater to make a Knights's Sacred Greatsword +2 with golden vow. For relics I used Grand Burning Scene with -Standard attacks enhanced with fiery follow-ups (greatsword) -Partial HP restoration upon post-damage attacks -Character skill cooldown reduction +1 Dark night of the Champion Wylder' Earring I had +4 madness resistance from clarifying bolus pickups found in church crates and afflicted enemies by the madness tower. (No flame of frenzy) It seemed impossible in trios. It is actually fun solo. It took me a few tries. |
|
I always get to 15 solo. It can be hard in a group that ignores the main castle on Day One and focuses on ruins and churches that are spread out. I always conjure crater, and farm Everdark Gnoster when it is up for Sovereign Sigils. |

I'm finally dedicating a playthrough to Elden Ring (the base game). This is my first souls game. I know @TaskForce has been trying to get me to play it forever. You'll be proud to know, I'm gittin' gudder. I beat Tree Sentinel this morning. Warrior build, level 21, probably wrong stat allocation, fat rolling in Godrick soldier gear. I'm sticking with it, this time. |

Elden Ring has some of the best boss fights I've experienced. If you were on xbox I could power level you.

damn that sovereign tricephalos is a bitch. the relic drop is supposed to be very good but no luck beating it yet. still wasting time until dlc. did try silent hill 2 for a bit. its slow going. damn old time manual saves are kicking me hard. forget to save them died and go way back |
|
I beat it twice yesterday. It is a good relic. I think it has a window where it will retaliate by absorbing all damage and then unleashing it for a team wipe. It walks sideways slowly, baiting attacks that will do very little to no damage It's a trap. It will then AOE all damage it took during the window. |

Farming Everdark Sovereign Caligo this week with Wylder using the relic from Everdark Gladius and conjuring Mountaintop. It made it easy. Attached File |
|
im playing raider mostly got all the sovereigns except Libra and heolster now failed on Libra 3 times today caligo was much easier than expected I farmed augur several times before the change I have 90 some of the new coins left over after getting the new relics ETA thinking about putting similar build together for wylder to try on Libra. will have to see. I have relics for colossal sword and 3 colossal weapons. was hoping for the one for just any colossal weapons in red or green |
