No dlc spoilers unless you spoiler block it like "DLC spoilers ahead: ||example spoiler||".
Telling people how to start the dlc is fine.
Base game is all fair game, it's been out for long enough.
#Elden Ring (DLC hype room)
atomic jetty
Dlc prep begins
warped quest
i have no idea what build i want to do
atomic jetty
In going strength with collosal weapons since I usually go mage
So wanna do something different
atomic jetty
Followed this quick start guide
And just gonna explore on my own pace from where the guide ends
https://youtu.be/lxfZdm6PO0I?si=EKym1c7ph1vR7JCR
If you wanna do malenia
Strength builds stagger the hell out of her
warped quest
im thinking spears
both vyke's and silriues are neat
paritzan can be gotten early with some farming, and bolt and death ritual can be gotten late
cleanrot might be fun to mess with
I do wish there was one other great lance that could be infused
serene gate
apparently i still got it, because i booted up the game this morning after not playing for a year, apparently i was at rykard, and beat him in 4-5 tries
atomic jetty
fuck yeah :3
atomic jetty
Time to bonk once more
frail sky
i have no idea what build i want to do
I was doing a quality build so I could use as many of the weapons I come across in the dlc as possible
…then I got the ruins greatsword and switched to strength (again)
warped quest
i am gonna look at patchnotes cause that can be a factor
frail ferry
int
twilit path
The smartest pugilist I shall become then
atomic jetty
Stormveil cleared
and so is most of limgrave and the peninsula
loving the bonk playstyle so far
even tho im so bad at timing my attacks well
the quick start guide means i just deal enough damage where i clear fights before its an issue
im sure this wont become a problem later
frail sky
It'll be fiiiiiiiiiiiine
twilit path
Filth 😡
atomic jetty
Best girl
Look at her shrimp
frail ferry
damn girl, you fryin rice with all 'at shrimp?
frail sky
…apparently I won’t be able to get the dlc for a month or so 
Kinda removes my motivation to do my current playthrough
frail sky
I’m unreasonably nervous about pirating stuff tbh
frail sky
Hmm… I assume you can transfer saves?
atomic jetty
yeah i assume the save is just on your pc somewhere
you might not even need to transfer
frail ferry
most games all save to doc folder anyway
or somewhere in its base file
and if you buy it it will just download to the one you have if its in the right place
frail sky
Welp that sounds like a good thing that I’m most definitely not going to do 🏴☠️
frail ferry
i did it alot before i got a job
twilit path
Oh yeah, me too. Constantly lmao
frail ferry
my reaction time against pop ups is unparalleled by anything else i do
atomic jetty
raya lucaria cleared, now, Ohio
atomic jetty
first try 
atomic jetty
got the mimic tear
gonna go eep
frail sky
Gnight
stoic sleet
frail ferry
i wonder how many people have characters at that site of grace right now
frail ferry
aka the starting line
warped quest
its gonne be a whileb efore i get to the dlc probally i will take the varre shortcut
but it being im starting a freshsave since the only one i had was the release day one i want to do a new playthough anyways
warped quest
you have to kill =raddan and mohg so its probally gonna be tough to get to for a while
frail ferry
uuuuhh
dectus rush and then the warp gate to radhanns castle
and then several summons
warped quest
im honestly not sure of my build
im either going cruicable incations lancer, or something more alchmisty
twilit path
I wonder if going in on new game+ is gonna be a problem or not
frail ferry
im going full crucible cosplay
warped quest
i think it woudl effect balance going in ng+
frail sky
…apparently I won’t be able to get the dlc for a month or so <:sadcowboy:5728226...
…and now my controller is starting to fail. I don’t think the universe wants me to play the dlc ngl
warped quest
theres always the learning the keyboard
frail ferry
i did it on 2
it wasnt too bad
put the dodge button on any gamer buttons your mouse has
twilit path
i think it woudl effect balance going in ng+
Yeah this is my fear. But also... I do crave a challenge...
frail ferry
i garuntee there will be at least one
frail sky
…and now my controller is starting to fail. I don’t think the universe wants me ...
Okay, as long as I don't move the controller it doesn't disconnect
So that's good
atomic jetty
caelid mostly cleared, atlus and volcano manor next :3
ill probably be dlc ready by the weekend ~w~

I just finished up the Leyendell Capital. Does anyone have advice on where to direct my attention next to get DLC-ready?
warped quest
do you want to know how you get to the dlc aka the requirements to get to it?

You've got to beat Mohg, who you can access by either getting past Leyndell and in to the consecrated snowfield, where in the far west side there's a teleporter to get Mohgwyn palace or you can complete Varre's questline
left willow
You've got to beat Mohg, who you can access by either getting past Leyndell and ...
Cool, thanks
warped quest
radahnn too needs to be beaten
left willow
I beat hims butt
I've got (Boss List, Spoilers for Base Game) ||Morgot/Margit all 3 times, Rahdahn, Rykard, Godrick, and Rennala|| under my belt.
warped quest
wait is the update already out but not the dlc
fleet bronze
Correct, at least it's already downloading, though I think the update may only go live when the DLC does?
fleet bronze
Y'know looking at the patch notes, even planning on playing through the DLC as an arc/faith build I can't even be mad that they nerfed the Mohgwyn spear AoW
That shit was busted
I'm sad to see only one flail buff
They really need more help
warped quest
i think reaper's need more arts
warped quest
if gargole's halberd can get thrusting moves despite not having a spear end
then grave should get a few more
fleet bronze
Though my strength character has had great success with a heavy grave scythe
Spoiler about DLC weapons ||I don't have an int faith character but I'm glad to see it looks like they'll be getting more support too||
mellow silo
Is it out yet?
fleet bronze
No, I just saw some of the things spoiled by people playing the review version
warped quest
i alreay bought it but still dont have the key yet
left willow
Anyone know of a hat that looks like the Godskin Noble Hood but doesn't give you a mega THICC neck?
The kinda peaked hood shape
mellow silo
Confessor Hood has that shape, but it's the wrong color
Oh Ive got the perfect thing for you
Try the Blackflame Monk Hood
You can find one of those guys to farm really easily outside the Godskin Noble arena in Rykards Castle

The Bullgoat legs, the gauntlets are the same too
fleet bronze
I just can't help but use heavy armor for the fashion
tropic stream
IT IS TIME
atomic jetty
is this room going to be about dlc or was this just pre dlc hype
its going to be about the dlc
since thats what everyone is going to be talking about
id still like for people to spoiler stuff
since from soft games are very heavy on discovery and exploration
i pinned the opening post outlining a guide
frail ferry
since we're gonna spread out like the start of the hunger games yeah
warped quest
ah ok ill probally just exit then since i wont be able to start it for a bit
vivid spire
Faith should be good
Have my haligtree page
Yes blade of calling
I have been waiting for this day
frail ferry
my crucible knight wannabe is at the ready
atomic jetty
faith is fun!
vivid spire
I simp for malenia this dlc was made for me
I'm gonna help miquella and save the world
I have the black knife too lol
umbral portal
Reposting here
(Major Spoilers) so thanks to YouTube. Apperantly the final boss of the DLC is ||Radahn, Consort of Miquella||
mellow silo
||Absolutely wild||
atomic jetty
damn starting the spoilers strong lol
umbral portal
You can blame unspoilered youtube thumbnails 
vivid spire
Damn
mellow silo
Don't go on YouTube, worst decision of my life
vivid spire
I wanna bring miquella home and fix everything
That's all I want
And I will kill to do it
mellow silo
I dont trust Miquella tbh
mellow silo
Griffith
umbral portal
Yeah lol
cobalt radish
oh, has it dropped?
umbral portal
Apperantly?
cobalt radish
the dlc
mellow silo
In some places
umbral portal
I've seen gameplay of it
mellow silo
It's rolling out slowly
cobalt radish
maybe it's just the reviewers
umbral portal
But yeah depends where you live
vivid spire
Miquella has been in the wringer though
umbral portal
Like the Australia area has it
umbral portal
I think your timezone is similar, right Dragon?
vivid spire
My friends are convinced he'd awful
mellow silo
just like Griffith fr fr
umbral portal
I mean a person can have gone through the wringer and still be a horrible person
Homelander, Griffith...
atomic jetty
its soulsborne
the chances hes bad are at least 50/50
atomic jetty
starduster you vile temptress you
mellow silo
||It's such a random fucking thing to know I just desperately want to know "how did we get here"||
umbral portal
Plus knowing the ending doesn't mean I know the entire plot
cobalt radish
I think your timezone is similar, right Dragon?
yeah, about there, but I also don't really play ER, I'm just here for the show
umbral portal
||It's such a random fucking thing to know I just desperately want to know "how ...
It's on YouTube if you wanna spoil yourself
mellow silo
Nevah!!!!!!!!!
YouTube is the mind killer, the little death that brings total obliteration
umbral portal
||It's such a random fucking thing to know I just desperately want to know "how ...
||I know, but it's also one of those things that's like "holy shit I wanna know the details||
Admittedly I only know the name. I don't know anything beyond that
But the name alone is interesting
stone cove
It's one of those spoilers that made me go "oh, so that's why we had to do that to get into the DLC"
umbral portal
Yeah lol
umbral portal
In not gonna lie, I'm really tempted to watch the video
But I shall remain steafast
vivid spire
I have an entire fic where my oc marries Malenia like
I am set in my ways I’m gonna anime character my way out of this
With the power of hope I’m gonna win
vivid spire
YEAH
stone cove
The only spoiler I care about is where the earliest damn Light Greatsword I can get my hands on is
mellow silo
Or a Great Katana
frail ferry
[data not found]
mellow silo
But knowing me I'm just gonna stick to my megapoke
atomic jetty
just wait a day and there will be 200 THIS IS HTE MOST OF WEAPON IN THE DLC
and its all the second weapon they found
mellow silo
I'm more excited about the extra 30 armor sets
atomic jetty
and then they release the same video 20 times more for each weapon they find
mellow silo
Drip will go so hard
stone cove
See this is why I generally don't get involved in those ecosystems lol
frail ferry
and then they release the same video 20 times more for each weapon they find
you jest but thats kinda peak
stone cove
And when I do stream I tend to focus on just having fun, not X is the most op
mellow silo
I'll need to wait for things to settle a bit before I go on the bling quest though
stone cove
Which is funny if you know me, because I'm a notorious optimiser (though i call my approach 80% optimal)
umbral portal
I want Martial Arts
umbral portal
The Bone Fist is now a whole weapon type
stone cove
See, from what we've seen in previews it and beast claws have a bunch of gap closing ability
umbral portal
Beast Claws?
mellow silo
||haha made you look 🫵||
umbral portal
I'm confused
mellow silo
They're probably a new weapon or something, idk
kind garden
Beast Claws are one of the new weapon types yes
mellow silo
||it's so sad Miquella died of ||||Ligma
ligma balls||
Alright now I'm just messing around, you don't need to click on that lol
atomic jetty
oh, they added a precise amount instead of "gain a small amount of runes"
kind garden
Bamco did not drop the ball this time
mellow silo
Congrats, you feel an extremely small portion of the pain felt by silksong fans
stone cove
theres different times per timezone
Yes, my timezone was showing less than an hour a few minutes ago.
atomic jetty
rip
stone cove
And it's not acutally differnet on pc, the pc release time is universal for everyone.
serene gate
this is the official global release time thing that bamco put out a bit ago
i think steam just updated to reflect these times
old brook
I don't know why they'd buff the Dragon and Golden Order seals, but hey, sure
gentle chasm
Ok any new lore Abt miqella?
stone cove
I'm just grumpy they had a desynch for so long
@gentle chasm Give it time.
dlc is barely out\
and not out for pc players
glossy delta
So the DLC is, in fact, available to play right now in some places?
frozen olive
not sure that's how timezones work
probably going to be dropping at the same time per console, it's just at different times because of timezones
mellow silo
FOUR HOURS REMAIN
atomic jetty
i have arrived at 
glossy delta
PC players.......................
It drops 11 PM for me
9 and a half hours out
atomic jetty
3 hours for me
even tho it was 1 hour a few hours ago
lol
im still prepping the character so i dont personally mind
glossy delta
Yeah, I think PC folks get it 5 hours earlier across the board
mellow silo
Lake Of Rot my beloathed
glossy delta
Both of mine just need to warp to the right grace 😭
mellow silo
Need to farm money so I can stock up on Burred Bolts, Explosive Bolts, Fan Daggers, and Kukris
frail ferry
3 hours for me
3 hours to wipe mogh off the face of the earth
stone cove
PC players.......................
It drops 11 PM for me
9 and a half hours out
If you're on console you can change your location to NZ and it'll be unlocked
glossy delta
That seems almost certainly false, I accept it whole-heartedly
umbral portal
Now, we wait
glossy delta
That seems almost certainly false, I accept it whole-heartedly
Update: Apparently this totally does work but only on XBOX
I'm playing on PS4 lmao
mellow silo
I'm having fun reading all the messages left by the cocoon
frozen olive
nice
mellow silo
Elden Ring required ahead, therefore offer Treasure Chest
glossy delta
I should put something down too.....
Get that whole zip code filthy with messages
junior spade
Best of luck to everyone! I hope your journies are fun and you solve some neat mysteries and riddles, hopefully in a few weeks I can be back to discuss it all haha
vivid spire
Update: Apparently this totally does work but only on XBOX
I'm playing on PS4 lm...
Wait shit how do I do that
And will my console get yammered or something
glossy delta
Wait shit how do I do that
According to the website I saw, you go into the XBOX location settings and set it to new zealand
glossy delta
I assume not, perhaps check further if you are very worried
Its being advertised as 'the new zealand trick'
vivid spire
Is it patchable
glossy delta
I dunno what that means!
atomic jetty
sir, sir get down please
glossy delta
Will the fromsoft devs patch out the ability to do that
Considering its on XBOX's end likely not
And considering its coming out within 24 hours would not matter a great deal anyway
glossy delta
Location I believe
glossy delta
have you beaten mohg and radahn, I'm told radahn is a secret hidden req for some reason
vivid spire
Yes
glossy delta
Hmmmmmmmgh
If you got the emote I must imagine the DLC is unlocked for thee
I imagine you set the location then started ER up right
And didnt like
Go to the home menu
vivid spire
I have ashen capital if that helps
glossy delta
While ER was still running
glossy delta
Maybe try restarting
You don't need to be in post game nah
atomic jetty
WORM
vivid spire
I haven’t gotten an ending yet
frozen olive
Mohg and Radahn was what we were told was the prereq i'm pretty sure
vivid spire
This save has been waiting for deliverance
glossy delta
Yeah you shouldnt need to lock in an ending
Just radahn and mohg
glossy delta
LMAO
vivid spire
RAHHHH
glossy delta
If you find Milady tell me where :3
vivid spire
Miquella I am coming I’m going to rescue you
MESMER. You FUCKER.

Mesmer reeks of fuck you energy
He just does
frozen olive
me and the boys going to figure out what kind of dastardly bullshit Miquella is up to
glossy delta
If you start liveblogging do be sure to put it under spoilers
frozen olive
going to catch some bodies
vivid spire
D: miquella good
frozen olive
no
i don't think so
i don't think any of the demigods are really good
i struggle to believe Miquella doesn't have bones in their closet
glossy delta
I mean
Yeah
All that shit implied up in Fort Sol is sus
Ultimately I find it hard to really think of any of the demigods in terms of good and evil though
Its like
A Medieval Politics Story with insane high fantasy trappings
frozen olive
yeah
i just mean that all of them have done sketchy shit
except maybe Godwyn i guess but he notably died so
you know
old brook
'He wields love to shrive clean the hearts of men' from that first trailer, Miq is doing something but who knows
vivid spire
I think that they’re the best of a poor bunch
glossy delta
I can make further assumptions from the launch trailer but I kind of don't want too
I'm gonna Wait And See

fortysnacks defeated
vivid spire
I made another page who loved rennala
I keep doing that
Twinks and their vaguely god related wives
Why do I keep doing that I dunno
Just
Not Marika
I have no interest in her she’s cringe
RAHHH RAHHHH
ALMOST THERE
atomic jetty
marika would probably make a good wine aunt
vivid spire
Yeah true but I feel more sympathy for her
old brook
She employs the Puppet Basement Man
vivid spire
Also it’s worth noting that when you kill the illusion of her
It doesn’t say demigod
atomic jetty
yeah shes not a demigod
vivid spire
She’s probably between god and human maybe
vivid spire
But I feel more sympathetic to her
atomic jetty
but just a wizard
vivid spire
I have uhhh
old brook
She's divested of her flesh etc etc
vivid spire
Wayy too many fics please help
atomic jetty
suffer :3
vivid spire
I just wanna have a happy ending and kill the actually awful fuckers like the god of rot
Let me do it for love fromsoft
Love is the same as throwing yourself against Malenia over and over right
frozen olive
sorry, no happy endings
frozen olive
yeah
vivid spire
GOODBYE I LOVE YALL
old brook
Not enough characters gaslight you about endings, like Darksouls1
frozen olive
we just need to gloss over all the horrendous things Ranni did
which i for one am perfectly willing to do
vivid spire
FOR MIQUELLA

IIRC the rec is 150 for a NG0 character with 100-120 being the Cool Kids Club of practical playability

All of these can be got super early, and only the beasst claws requires a fight, but you can just ride your hors

How are the Beast Claws?
stone cove
Very aggressive.
Seem like a sweet weapopn for occult builds, as they have native bleed and very fast attacks

Don't know how long I'll be able to hold out before completely changing my build for new weapons/armor
The Urumi is holding up well for now though

no, they're actually claw weapons apparently

Lmao, there's a silver pickled fowl foot right next to a very cool enemy with awesome armor and a grace point. They knew

@limpid peak ||Try looking in the forest southwest of the very first site of grace||

||Rellana is Malenia But Blue||
And faster somehow
limpid peak
You know, since Black Pyre butterflies exist, does that confirm that the Smouldering Butterflies represented Melina?
since people thought they could represent Messmer
stone cove
It seems very likely that (Speculative spoiilers here, Messmer & Melina related)
||Melina and Messmer are twins||

Sorry!!!!
Good luck!!!!!!!!
Youll beat em Im certain

I did just realize
(more of the above)
||since Milady is infusable||
||I can just make it Occult or Bleed and roll on with arc as usual||
||The big chain heavies on LGSes even seems like that would be effective||
I maaaaaay have used all the larval tears in the game world by now though
Something to check with the two hours till unlock I still have
stone cove

||since Milady is infusable||

It seems very very effective on high speed atack stuff - i'm using it with ROtten + Milcent's and yep, stuff be getting dead

stone cove
...I just one shot her >.>
stone cove
first attempt and she went down like a chump
Uh, Milady with Wing stance is real fucking good, and i wanst even optimizng it
rich lintel
wing stance?
stone cove
Ash of war, gives you well, wing stance
rich lintel
is it a DLC thing? never heard of it
stone cove
Lets you do a bunch of foward slashes, or the real powerhouse move- a leap into the air followed by a thrusting dive
which does crazy fucking damage and stagger
and it's a thrust attack, so it gets the counter attack bonus
i literally jumped over one of her attacks and punished her for it
mellow silo
What weapons does it apply to?
stone cove
I need to check
rich lintel
i've been running heavy milady with the piercing fang and 65 strength, got the ||lion|| dead pretty fast by just staggering it
mellow silo
Absolutely desperate for more whip arts
stone cove
But you can get it from the campfire right before her boss fight
(That is, the campfire lets you get to it)
spoiler for how
Wing Stance location: ||From the castle-lord's chamber site of grace, go out onto the balocny where the dead sorcerer is. You can then jump down to the left, and follow around that route to find a small tower you can climb up. It's at the top there||
rich lintel
yeah shit i gotta grab that then
stone cove
HOW
Also i suspect theo ther part of the answer is "I'm a lot better at the game than i give myself credit for"
.>
rich lintel
yeah that's probably likely
stone cove
I mean, i did two-shot malenia the other day on this character as well
rich lintel
what i really gotta do is find some good drip for the milady
stone cove
Also, Wing stance is only useable on light greatswords sadly
rich lintel
get that fencer/duelist vibe going

Also, Wing stance is only useable on light greatswords sadly

Do we know if Malenia is of any import to the story
Because I can use my other save files

Although I never run out of flasks before I die anyways so

Without summons
It seems ever so slightly easier
If I record it could yall see what I’m doing wrong and critique

Probably not, other than "dodge better"
It's like any souls boss, you gotta internalize the patterns
