does anyone actually notice any punishment by the game for leaving a match early? for all the times it has told me, i don't really seeing any punishment towards those in my party that left or myself on the few occasions i just gave up on who i was with.
probably is just less priority in the matchmaking mostly, i don't recall hearing anyone getting banned for leaving matches
Fromsoft typically shadow-bans folks, or places them in low-priority queues with other malefactors without a notification 
i just had a deja vu moment, i think we might have talked about this before the game's release
probably
that does sound about right for fromsoft
the revs with me melted through caligo
He’s coming 
I'm going to get turned into primordial soup
that'll be around 1pm ish my time
will just a few hours of work to get through before fighting the goatman
should be live now
Well shit. Sorry Monster Hunter, I've got a real monster to hunt now
i havent played in a while so i am gonna be giga rusty
you mean pvp? 
Wow
I learned
Absolutely nothing from that first attempt
I saw a lot
He did a lot of things
I have no idea how you deal with any of it

He was just doin shit and I was just starin at it trying to deal with 3 other things going "well it hasnt killed me so I dunno what that is"
starting my first run against him
So how'd it go?
day 2 just ended, we ran in the night to find the rot blessing and get enough runes for lv15
we are just about to fight him
Hopefully you get further than I did
i liked the surprise invasion, they weren't too much work to defeat but we got madness proc'd
he did seem to be less aggro while they were on field
wonder if the relic perk for killing those things applies inside the boss fight
2nd attempt went a lot better
still lost
there is a bit of a dps check with how quickly you can kill those things before he summons again, and there is some variety in what gets summon, two on them were easy but the third one was noticeably tougher
i like this fight but i can see how this can quickly become an annoying fight if things don't go well
holy hell the people that can ping spam are annoying as hell, an archer did it to me when i was getting my runes back and then left the game

This fight is so fucking funny
Shame our Iron Eye doesn't know teamplay 
I was like ||"Oh he summons guys, that's cool but not the worst" and proceeded to get every attack cancelled by a rain of arrows from 3 Wylders with Greatbows
||
Didn't properly see phase transition though because our Raider put his whole Totussy on him

Breakdown of the Non-Everdark Version of Libra: https://youtu.be/gWnXHuuSWJ8
Caligo may have been passed around between a couple games during development, but finally came to roost in Nightreign. Of the two dragons among the Nightlords, she fits the standard draconic mold a bit more, but she still has some chilling tricks to her.
Song used: Snowpeak Ruins - The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess OST
I did not know that
That explains a lot
They think they're soooo fuckin funny
Givin the condemned Revenant a Giant Crusher and Greatsword
Lost this attempt, got close though
Think I've seen everything Libra does
He isnt balls to the walls hard... he isnt Super Libra, he's not a bullet hell boss like he coulda been
But conceptually, he's really really funny
I feel like he's kinda... this game's version of Old Monk?
In the only way they could do that
And I find it hilarious that he survives in this game too, conceptually
First time using it... everdark Sentient Pest's relic is pretty good...
This is just with 1 Rise
were epic online services down for anyone else earlier today
split damage harpoon, haven't seen this outside sword of night and flame
Huh. Might be because its one of the few infusable innate elemental damage weapons in the game
Weapons that normally arent infusable are infused in this game, but its usually weapons that had no element to begin with
seen it twice i think
Got jumpscared
They changed the sentient pest raid
It actually fights back now when you find it
Its still squishy as hell, and also now has a fire DoT weakness like the boss, but it gets off the ground and starts blasting you

Man fighting everdark Libra with 2 Ironeyes on your team is fucking AWFUL
I think thats my 3rd run. They have not been going incredibly
Oh boy time for 2 Revenants on my team
defientely want more tanky and strong units for this one
at at least not 2 of the same class for some of them
the madness giga beam into the sky does drive me crazy a little
This run went pretty piss poorly overall
the summon parried me 
These runs are not going well
I will agree he summons new condemned so fast
Even when you deal with them quickly, if everyone isnt doing something useful it feels like he'll just throw infinite bodies at you
if the rate he summons condemned (mostly that 2nd wave) got adjusted, that would be great
Still havent managed to beat him on like my 4th or 5th try
Got extremely close on my 2nd try but since then, nothing
Starting to wonder if fighting the condemned is even worth it
Or if you have someone just distract them since theyre pretty dumb while the others fight Libra
the ones that cause the most trouble are the raider summons from what I have experienced
everyone else is manageable
but then that duchess came in
Ironeyes are really annoying to fight
Even if they dont do a lot of damage theyre just always shooting you
yea, when they get you on low health it's rough
They can get jar cannons too
I might just have to fight him solo
It looks so much easier solo
All "Demon Does X" events currently known (pulled from the Nightreign Reddit)
||Summoned the Condemned - Summons NPCs that mimic your teammates characters and skins but have their own preset builds. He will summon more every 50 seconds.
Shrouds all allies - Makes teammates invisible. Occasionally makes the Condemned invisible. Lasts 30 seconds.
False Blessing - Flask charges become infinite, but you lose a level each flask use. Lasts 30 seconds, you'll know you're under this effect if you have rings around your character.
Inescapable Eye - Power of a Demon without the boost. Lasts 30 seconds.
Preaches Madness - All attacks of yourself and NPCs cause madness buildup. This means you can apply it to Libra, too. Lasts 30 seconds.
Incites a Riot - More NPC summons, but they can attack each other as well as Libra.
Offers a Challenge - Cuts HP in half. This also applies to Libra and the Condemned, however, he seems only to use it when he's below half anyway. Lasts 30 seconds
He will start in buffed casting mode, and the only way to get him out is to poise break him, which does not enable a riposte but puts him in rage mode. Killing the Condemned drops a fragment which gives you health, atk, and def.||
They shoulda let Libra fire Midra's madness laser from his stomach
If I cant win with this then I'm just kinda fucked
HE HAS SO MUCH HEALTH
This is definitely the hardest everdark boss, regardless of how people feel about it
At least in trios
And I think due to the nature of it, you'll never really be able to get good at it
Because how can you when the fight revolves around NPCs so much? Its so much more gear dependent than any other fight
I could 1v3 everdark Adel, probably. He's a good fight but he is straight forward and learned pretty easily
This fight is a buncha bullshit with heavy RNG elements and a lot of shit to look out for
Its very fitting for Libra. Its an entirely different kind of madness than we've had to deal with before
If he were to get nerfed at all, I'd want like 10 or 20 more seconds between his summons, because apparently it happens every 50 seconds
Not even a minute
You need just a little bit more time to focus him down between waves before you get overwhelmed
yeah
The NPCs also do so much goddamn damage for what they are
A Duchess plinking at me with a glintstone pebble off-screen should not be doing like 20% of my hp
This time for sure, surely
SURELY this time
Its going badly but its going way better than usual runs
Libra be damned, we have like 2 revives
GOD FUCKING DAMNIT
Brother we could have killed any other nightlord like 3 times over
If Sebastian's last attack were allowed to revive me I couldve ulted and revived everyone else
I got a cheap shot on me in the fight when the enemy revenant chucked a lightning spear at me from beyond the wall of light so of course I couldnt fucking see it
That has to be the best run I couldve had, in regards specifically to dealing with all the NPCs
This motherfucker is single handedly tanking my W/L ratio
The only trick to fighting him I can think of is just extreme patience
But if he summons a riot you just get kinda fucked
The riot would be nice if the NPCs had their health cut down to 75% or something
Instead of just having to deal with TWICE as many NPCs
Or if the extra clones died when he summoned the next round
SOMETHING
This guy feels like the prep for Giga Heolstor
I dont see how Heolstor could be harder without just pulling some real unfair bullshit
Every single arena variant at once 
Everdark Heolstor simply changes the timing on all of his moves at random, making old knowledge of how to dodge him obselete
Spectacle idea: Heolstor becomes one of those Giant Walking Shades and we fight that 
He pulls a Mega Man on you and forces you to fight all the other Nightlords before you get to fight him
Something I should probably know by now... does Libra do fire or holy damage?
God what a miserable run I just had
It went well but I tried playing patient
That Libra fight mustve gone of for like 10 minutes
Still sitting at 60% hp
I think the thing that shocks me about this fight most of all, especially given the previous fights
Is that 1: Libra is really fucking tanky
And 2: It costs him nothing to summon the condemned
Usually they make any sort of revive or "added body" mechanic cost the boss something to do, so it plays into how you kill them
But Libra can summon THOUSANDS of extra hp in bodies almost instantly on a timer until the fight ends at no cost to himself
All while being tankier than normal Libra and also a threat himself
Like, I thought that Sentient Pest couldve stood to be tankier, or cost less for Animus to revive things
Because it can kill itself REALLY fast
And the whole point of Augur's fight is you can kill it with all the adds
Even Caligo summoning their armor costs them hp
But Libra? Nah summon tens of thousands of HP in adds that also do a lot of damage and sometimes randomly have ranged weapons
We simply are not built to last that long against that many enemies without something more to help us
Really I think the pebbles dropped by the killed NPCs could be stronger, if they wanted to go that route
Restore like 20% of our hp or something instead of the tiny amount it does now
Restore FP too. That shit isnt infinite
Or have it so if they die it damages Libra too like Augur
Cause currently they are just obstacles. We get really no benefit if we kill them. They simply exist to get in our way
And thats fine once or twice but not for literally the whole duration of the fight
Only thing I could think of that would actually "counter" any of this is equipping a relic that gives you bonus damage when you kill a condemn
Usually very niche, but here it would just let your damage snowball the longer the fight went on
~15% damage for every wave of condemned he spawns in
I just havent seen any skills or weapons that excel at killing the Condemned in a way that isnt easily exhausted, or isnt reliant on specific spells
The only safe way to do the fight seems to just play it very slow... which is a problem when you're on a 50 second timer every time
My last run I was off in a corner dealing with my condemned and somehow my ally was fighting a revenant that had 7 attack and defense buffs...
Bringing either revenant or guardian to fully revive your team also seems really valuable, but they are both annoying characters to fight cause Revenant can have spells or massive weapons, and Guardian is just tanky and likes shielding
I have no relic with the night invader effect
Fuck
I'm gonna do it this time
HE'S FINALLY DEAD
I got so many bleed proc damage boost effects
Condemned spawned in and just exploded
Very good team, nobody went down
I had 2000 hp and enough flask restore boosts to fully heal from nothing so I was PREPARED for a long fight
9 flasks
It was the perfect run
This relic is ass
Its almost the same goddamn relic
If there was a time to stick "attack up after defeating a night invader" on a guaranteed relic it would have been this one
We do not need A SECOND RELIC THAT BUILDS MADNESS WHEN CROSS LEGGED
WE DONT EVEN HAVE MADNESS SYNERGY SKILLS OR TALISMANS
Does the Night Invader effect work on The Condemned?
I dont know but I assume it does
I sure hope it does
It says theyre condemned
God this relic is so bad and the same as the last one which was bad, it pisses me off a little
Libra you asshole
I guess the only other "trick" to his fight is that I think stance breaking him now just enrages him, which prevents him from doing any of his gimmicks
So if you stance break him enough he gets mad and you can fight him normally for awhile until he does his rotation
Got him on my 13th attempt...
Notes from sources; Libra's magic is Holy Damage
||When Libra is inflicted with Madness, any active Condemned will turn on him||
||"The Demon Incites a Riot" also makes them able to randomly target him||
"Attack Power Up After Defeating a Night Invader" is only +7% and does not stack*
Fascinating
There is a lot to his fight you will simply just not notice because you are too busy trying to survive
I think if you know EVERYTHING about the fight
It becomes significantly easier
He's a fight you need to actually research about because it is mechanically packed, not just new attacks
It'd be impossible to communicate that to randoms but I guess you should NOT use madness weapons against him until he summons
Or else you're just making it harder to turn the condemned on him
I think that, knowing what I know now, and keeping in mind you arent guaranteed to get madness weapon to use against him...
I would bump up the summon time to 60 seconds and make the npc pebbles heal more and restore some FP
And that would be it if I were to do a first balance pass
Just to make going for a long fight a bit more viable if you dont have all the tools to enrage him and kill him before he goes back to summoning
i have not had a successful run against libra since that one win the other day
lot of them got close
I had 1 close run and then my 1 win
And almost every other run he was still at 50% hp when we lost
So a lot of disparity
i made some tweaks to my relics and i could feel the extra power. unfortunately this run also failed because of the usual stuff.
In this video, I cover the best relic combinations and the rules that determine what combinations are possible.

If you are interest...
I do want to try duchess with skill reduction on everything
I have enough to do +2,+2,+3 with some compromises to the other relic perks on it with some class exclusives for other classes on them
timestamp for the wylder
My friends are joking about doing Seamless Everdark Libra to see what happens with more than 3 people 
Imagine if he summons just one with the stats of 6 
amazing
12 NPCs during a riot sounds like actual hell
Sounds like a PC Explosion Simulator. 
Based giant archer
got a second win
rev left us early on but this wylder and i did really well. it was more manageable as a duo compared to trios.
really good wylder too, we hit all the evergoals on the map
it's been a while but i had another match where i am completely stunned that the game did not censor their name
no clever attempts to dodge the censor with a 1 instead of an i, it's all text
might take another break from nightreign until the next round of buffed bosses
there's speculation about a new mode coming but nothing official by fromsoft themselves. that'll suck me back in for sure. i'll still be active in this channel.
Where's Mark?
In this video we're talking about the Nightfarer Ironeye, who is without a doubt one of the strongest characters in Nightreign.

#eldenring #nightreign
The new mode is coming, it's just a question of when, a lot of the data for it is already in the game
Some kinda endless mode? Or something about ranked runs?
Ranked mode with ||more relic slots for special new relics that give more bonuses but also have downsides, the game will also have tougher enemies||
Wth
Yknow, relics with upsides and downsides does sound pretty good
Game could stand to be more random or punishing beyond your own bad play
Which sounds terrible but it is meant to be a rougelite
Or like
Whichever one
I'd take stronger relics for a downside
i hate abilities that have downsides
depends what kind of downsides they give us
if it's worth the cost or isn't an intrusive downside i'll take it
-INT on Raider 
-1 flask
reduced dmg of a given affinity maybe?
i expect some negative versions of the bonuses we can get in game right now
we sort of have that in the game already with some talismans
something like 13% more fire attack power at the cost of -3% damage negation
i'll be honest, i forgot this dog was getting a buffed version now. i only remembered the other three bosses from the announcement .
He might be one of the most interesting ones cause his 2nd phase is not a strict buff
It is just 3 dogs
Wonder if we'll just have to fight 3 dogs and kill them all at the same time or they revive
They havent done that yet
Phase 2: a secret fourth dog
A secret, more sinister option
The dogs separate into 3 and those can also separate into 3 of their own
The greatsword splits into 3 okayswords
each dog gets a moonlight greatsword
You load into the fight and Tricephalos is instead replaced by Sif, the Gravetender dog from DS3, and the Red Wolf but specifically the one from Ranni's plateau

I hate that one specifically
The one from the frozen outskirts area is also not great
Yeah it's funny because the actual "boss" one is pretty easy
But there's a couple out in the map that're straight up brutal
Because they lose the greatsword attacks that actually give it windows of vulnerability
Radagon gave Renalla ONE dog and apparently had like 5 others that were way stronger
Just spread throughout the world
he lost the litter
a revbubu
Libra has been one of the most peculiar bosses in not just Nightreign, but the entire Souls series, offering strange bargains to even his foes. Naturally his Everdark form added to this, but in a way that's been both surprising and somewhat divisive.
Song used: Ancient Cistern - The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword OST
I forgot they were even in the game for the longest time
I remember seeing promo material about them and then I never saw one for like
100 hours or something
Waa so confused when I actually got one because I simply forgot it was even in the game
Lost my first run against Tricephalos
Dude is aura farming HARD at the start of the fight
If Gladius came out first before Adel he would've blown minds
Feels like a good fight so far
Lost a 2nd time
He just does a metric ton of damage
Its like fighting a giant 3 headed Abyss Watcher...
Abyss Watchers cut out the middle-man;
Instead of fighting like wolves, BECOME the Wolf! 
I feel like I'm washed or something. The fight isnt THAT different. Its like, Libra-adjacent. Not as chaotic but they gave this dog so much health'
Frankly its the kinda bump up other bosses couldve used too
But it just hits SO hard
Harder-Hitting + Sword Slashes now leave a damaging trail in their wake, so the old rolling patterns don't apply 
||Oh my god theres a fourth phase||
I think not counting Libra because he is his own special kind of difficulty, Tricephalos is definitely the hardest straight up fight
If every other boss had the same amount of health? Maybe it'd be more similar
But Libra and Tricephalos seem to just have more health than everything else. An appropriate amount of health
I wonder if they'll go back and buff up the original everdarks since they seemed to be playing them just a little safe compared to what they're doing now
Caligo also has a lot of health but Caligo always had a lot of health
Adel, Fulghor, and pests all seemed like they had very similar amounts of health to their originals, and not massively increased damage in the case of Fulghor or pests
Adel had a lot more damage but its Adel. If you get hit by it you deserve it
First tried dog, much more manageable than Libra, still really cool improvement
I like how the internal name is Chaos Mode
Wonder if the bosses will be everdark versions by default
Been awhile since ive played this. Can anyone confirm if the players are just doing the evergaol strat or runs are varied enough?
Playing with randoms, yes there is typically enough variety in runs now that nothing feels the same!
..unless it's Everdark Libra, in which case Evergaol stacking is seen at the most likely path to victory
Evergaols are still pretty strong but I think randos dont usually aim for ALL of them
Just any along the path they take
Yeah lately I don't feel like randos beeline to them too early, which is nice
I do still get people trying to hit up the City way too early in Day 1 sometimes but that's not too often either
Honestly Ive seen people do that
And you kinda can
You have to leave in the 2nd half but you can explore the northern half of the map and loot the rooftops
Hit lvl 7 or 8 killing relatively easy Mausoleum Knight bosses
Get higher quality drops
Yeah there are a couple chances to get legendaries really early if you find chests, it's not a total loss but I still feel like you're better off leveling in day 1 and then just spend most of day 2 tearing the city up
Lvl 7 by night 1 isnt bad, can get higher if you have an Ironeye to kill the larval Astel easily
Its like 20k runes
finally we got the official announcement

Actualy significant balance patch today as well
All characters aside from Iron Eye got at least minor buffs
Fair enough on these 
Other things of note
Depending on how good this is, it may be like a free single hit for Recluse now
Which I think is more useful because she was already super squishy. A bit more hp doesnt stop her from getting 1-shot by nightlords. But a single big boost of hp could
Wolves can now stagger, but they did not implement such a change for Bell Bearing Hunter. He continues to aura farm
Farming in the night 2 storm will now be harder. Also hopefully people confuse lightning and holy less

g-g-guys.... he's coming
also sounds like new OST in the trailer 
Or could be part of Heolstor's theme I don't remember
What's the new Holy icon?

From the trailer it looks a tad more orange
Oh yeah thats a lot more distinct
so glad they made that change
the night calls for good hoonters
glorious fight but the game crashed after i got the victory screen so i lost out on rewards
okay got a win against caligo afterwards and the blue bits on night relics look pretty
pot sells night relics
1k points to go to lv2, each win gavce 200
the randomised nature of what boss you get to fight felt pretty good
One disadvantage from having to start at lvl1 for this is that you get paired with all the little Timmies doing this for the first time
pinging Gaols without having keys, pinging A while going to B 
so far everyone in my matches has been doing alright, did have one run where we were getting pummelled into the ground at first but we managed to still win against caligo (or it was dog, one of them. still won anyway)
I've done 3 runs so far, 2 of them were people who were doing really well but the last one was a win on Dog even if it felt almost undeserved 
I still feel a bit robbed with this win
I wish it got counted in the logbook
btw do we know what's classified as "Reapers"? I assume scythes
Yeah its scythes
Guy opens Gaol immediately upon landing, Death Rite Bird, we die for 5 minutes and he pings an invasion camp 
Shoulda just ignored him
rip getting the deathbird right at the start
I've literally never had parties this bad in normal mode man
people running off on their own into the storm for a single talisman and then dying
Today i played for 40 minutes and 4 times randoms left im the first minutes
I went to take a break on helldiver 2 after that
W
0
I uncorrupted my save file
And i must say this new mode is very stressfull
And there is soo much reading
it would be nice if the night lasted a little longer in the new mode so we had time to read the extra bits, but that probably won't happen so we gotta speed read and act on the fly like usual
Holy
I wonder if i stack the poison on the iron eye ability will increase the poisom damage
I got a relic and that shit looks soo good
Oh they finally added those
the poison on character ability for iron eye is soo fun
been around since launch but they're very rare
I've seen about 2/3 of them
maybe more but at least that many
I never saw the madness tower until the new mode and ran into it 3 times in a row
only ever seen 1 meteor and that landed in the rain on day 2
they've been in for a while
They were in at launch
I have only ever seen 1
Theres a lot of things that are WAY too rare
It's finally done

I did think everdark Heolstor wouldve been in by now
Thats kinda what I was waiting on

we are so back foul tarnished
I haven't played since right after the last big update, gonna have to shake that rust off
Wait FUCK that's the same day Prime 4 drops
same

TLDW for workin' Mobs: ||2 new characters at least, 1 new map? New bosses and Artorias returns as a Night Boss ||
||Several new End Bosses, new Night Bosses and seemingly Night Lords out in the field||
||It looks like a LOT of the new field mobs are from Shadow of the Erdtree||
||Looks like the Dung Eater god is getting some more representation too
||
||Saw that fuckass Dancing Lion. Scared.||
||The first new character they show has Wylder's Escape Death passive, right before they do that big flying charge||
||Looks like they have to activate it first, so might not be a full passive||
||Second guy seems to be a proper Faith character maybe?||
New character arts*
||Scholar and Undertaker apparently||
||Undertaker looks like a nun with a mace. Finally a str fai character?||
||that's Wylder stabbed on Artorias' sword, the intro has become a command grab! If he yeets the impaled player as a projectile attack at another, lmao||
Visual Confirmation of Big Man not approving of John Wylder's cosplay. xD
Images of that THING from the end.
And a zoomed snippet of its hellborn yawp.

#ELDENRING #NIGHTREIGN The Forsaken Hollows launches on December 4, 2025.
Further details here: https://t.co/smpOZT0rKp
||That sure looks like what I’d describe as a Dreglord||
Grabbed some screenshots from the trailer
||A group Nightlord fight against Valkyries and the Dreglord screaming||
Oh that second one looks like ||the ER DLC area where you find St Trina||
||I saw Recluse in an area that either looked like the church you get the Metyr quests from in SotE, or it might just be the Raya Lucarian room where you fight the Red Wolf of Radagon. It has crystals on the ground so I'm thinking maybe the latter||
I really can't wait to find out more about that third screenshot, that flyby was gorgeous
If I had to guess, its probably related to this
Ohh, yeah I can see it
Its not quite glintstone, and its probably not abyssal or deep, even though it looks similar to those
||Definitely looks like there's something coming out of those crystals||
new images are up on the steam page

i havent played in a while and been waiting for the dlc to boot up the game again
cant wait to play mace lady
ya, looks really fun and hopefully we get a new map
Guardian and Raider are both Str/Vig/End tanks, Wylder is Str/Dex, Ironeye is Dex, Duchess is Dex/Int, Executor is Dex/Arc, Recluse is Int/Fth, Revenant is Fth, Undertaker will be Fth/Str
So what archetype is left for Scholar? Int/Str?
Or maybe a more Arcane-leaning Int/Fth caster?
It could be Fth/Dex but that doesn't really have any support or thematic history, besides them making lightning infusion scale with dex in Elden Ring
And it would probably be strange to have two Faith-leaning classes in the DLC
So I guess my bet would be more on Arcane
Cause Executor is our only other Arcane user and dear god his FP is so shit, he cant even spam weapon skills without running out immediately
Though in terms of "generalist" casting, Recluse kinda dominates there still. Maybe he wont be made of wet paper
idk, she has a mace so str/fth is on the table innit?
Yeah for Undertaker one of the Fromsoft posts mentioned her using "her faith and strength", Scholar I haven't seen on of those for
Proper Arcane caster would be nice, especially if we get some more of the freakier incantations/spells
I can see him being a High Arcane / Int Caster, with what appears to be an AOE Utility Ulti that applies a Mark to all targets hit. (Damage Amp like Ironeye that doesn't last as long or gives a reward on hit, perhaps?)
Hey man, oil is hurtyy
My life to have this armor again
God I loved the Sunless set
I used the legs in one of my favorite mixed fashion sets
Sirris, my beloved
I think theres a good chance for it since Revenant already took Friede's clothes. How many other women are there in the Souls series with unique armor?
The Ringed City lady I guess?
... Gwyndolin's outfit maybe? But we never got that as armor
Lucatiel
Firekeeper would be cute
Emerald Herald is already in
I hope everyone gets an additional callback outfit
Dragon slaying... a knight's highest calling...
Doesn't a havel costume already exist
Yeah for Raider

holy text for a new era
I saw someone ask " do we pray to queen marika or miyazaki?"
monotheistic or maybe pantheon worhship 
we'll need another edition of his book for the dlc
Victory requires more than brute strength.
To bring an end to the Night, one must first understand its making.

So it looks like his art or his skill is some kind of life link
Between allies and between enemies
they showed it in his trailer but i want to see a full boss fight against libra with him in the party
Let insight be your sharpest edge.
Use every tool, and exploit every flaw. And remember; even gods have weaknesses.

Nice, I was right about the damage sharing art. Team heal off it is nice
No clue what his skill entails though
And an item-centric passive is... interesting
Will be hilarious if the DLC adds in the giant throwing pots
His passive is probably gonna be pretty useless or completely broken with little in between 
People fighting avatars too early I guess if theyre ranked that highly...
Pot-troll being that high is disgusting
I know why its there but I doubt most of the kills are coming from the trolls people are actively fighting
Its the one in the background getting the kills...
Getting cross-mapped by the one you didn't see 
Same thing with the Draconic Tree Sentinel sending you a cross-map lightning strike
How bell bearing isnt no. 1 leads me to believe everyone figured out to run away if spotted
Probably, yeah. Fighting him never got easier. People just started avoiding him
Cast aside thoughts of mercy.
︀︀Let faith be the hammer to purge the darkness festering in our world.

Yeah they didnt even explain what she does
Skill does... an auto dodge? Maybe? Puts a hat on her hat?
Art looks like a forced stagger, with repeatable casts? Kinda crazy but very single target
Yeah I was wondering if the first skill was something like that
She doesnt auto dodge out of her own attack when she trades with the lion so either its just enhanced manual dodging or it only dodges if she would get staggered
Elden Ring: Nightreign - The Forsaken Hollows is right around and we got exclusive access to the new DLC. There are two new characters (Scholar and Undertaker) and a new World Shift, and in this video we breakdown Undertaker.
#eldenring #eldenringnightreign #nightreign
Okay so
Her skill just enhances her everything
She looks NUTS
DEMON PRINCE????
She's big damage
So we know we're getting Artorias and Demon Prince
2 bosses from Souls DLC
Ult stacking with Duchess is hilarious
I feel like we are definitely getting someone from DS2 also if thats the case
So the question is who
I think the safest bet is Fume Knight
But I really kinda want Ivory King
Alonne is a possibility but I dont think he would handle a group fight very well
I also want a bunch of bosses from DS3 honestly. Pontiff at least
Champ Gundyr or DSA would be cool
Abyss Watchers, obviously
I'm not sure who we would get from SotE, if anyone... mostly cause the major bosses are all ball busters
Might as well be fighting the nightlord at that point

I was right
S in Arcane
Knowing that he loves items this would actually make him insane with things like fly pots
man the randoms will analyze at the worse time possible i feel it already
When does thw dlc drop?
4th i think
yup, 4th of December but idk if that's local for everyone or if it's some arbitrary JP time
F

Elden Ring Nightreign DLC The Forsaken Hollows is here. Elden Ring nightreign is a new coop survival game from Fromsoftware set in the Elden Ring universe. Play as new heroes and survive the night plaguing the Lands Between.
0:00 Intro
0:38 Nightfarer Details
3:37 New Map Details
5:14 New ...
new bosses section
Yeah Gamespot showed it off in their Undertaker vid the other day
I didnt think it'd be both though
Thats gonna be... brutal
executioner is fun, didnt get a chance to play scholar yet but looks very tactical support
Played my first game as undertaker
She's neat
Some mechanics I didnt fully understand are clear to me now
A full 16 seconds of auto dodge is wild
Undertaker's Nostalgia Costumes, currently unavailable? Uncertain
first run of the new area, absolutely stomped but i am in awe of the area design
Played my first run as scholar
I have misunderstood what his skill does, I think
I watched an entire Azula Beastmen goal evaporate when I hit them with my art and then an undertaker used hers
Okay so his skill only debuffs enemies or buffs himself, I thought it buffed allies
And his art's damage share is actually only 20% of the damage any target takes
So not THAT crazy but depending on the aoe you bring, against 2 targets that could be a 40% damage increase
On top of healing your team as damage gets done like with Recluse
third time around went pretty well but we died during the new boss's (those warrior maiden ones from the trailer) second phase
I just had a run with probably pretty high damage for a scholar
Ran into a blood ruin at the start, popped art, watched a bunch of zombies just explode
Got a bloody Rogier's Rapier with Seppuku on it
Eventually dual wielded it with a Frozen Needle
Pretty damn strong
I really am disappointed they for some reason couldnt get SotE weapons in this DLC though
Not even necessarily expecting the new weapon classes. Just the new weapons at least
I so badly wanted to see Euporia
no wins so far, had to stop due to a near flat controller
I thought I saw a Great Katana on Twitter somewhere but that might just have been a weird weapon skill 
got a win against the balance
huuuuWEE the Balancers are quite a fight!
i don't know why we have two different relic rolls one mentions from up to ver 1.02 and the other doesn't
first run on the dreglord went very well, had a good wylder and ironeye in my party.
the skymaps in this dlc look great
New Boss minor vent;
||What the hell is the trick about Mohg in this? Just the boss by itself would be challenging enough BUT he's got an arena-setup auto-bleed bullshit mechanic as well too? There's gotta be something, right?||
I have seen that the purifying tear is also in the game. I dont know where or if you can consistently get it
But yeah thats just Mohg
Dunno if someone can save a staggering art to knock him out of Nihil or something
first blind run
||Are you supposed to instantly get hit with a half hp debuff?
||
I also think they may have broken Raider's enhanced counter, it just did not want to charge whatsoever no matter how much damage I took 
hmm it's there but it feels like it takes much longer to charge now
jfc they gave|| Mohg|| so much hp
Also I would like to ask all Recluse players to please play something with HP or learn how to dodge
every one of them I've seen has gotten fucking exploded by every boss
yea that's the curse for the castle areas until you get the area's blesskng from the big crystal
Ended up figuring it out on run 3 when someone ran around smashing the small ones
But not giving any indication where it's from, nor how to remove it is really evil
classic Fromsoft
licking i think, in her third remembrance she cracks some essence of the night she sees on the wall and consumes it
that tweet kinda spoiled it already
still, sorry i probably could have been more vague
Spoiler-tagging new content for a bit is the right call, just in case 
huh think I ran into a weird form of cheater just now
guy could deal no damage, take no damage, but was able to revive us in 3 hits
Incidentally, I've not had a single stable connection game since the second round of Everdark bosses 
Holy shit (day 2 second boss spoiler) ||Artorias ||does an insane amount of damage
ah I see he was a stat preview of the boss 
||Stupid blood wormfaces spawning behind me||
new Relic from The Balancers*
Huh thats pretty solid
undertaker remembrance is complete, going to try out scholar tomorrow
i do hope we see a few more updates after this dlc
like adding some dlc weapons or something
Man I hope so
All the new stuff feels a little moot without new weapons to pair them with
I've yet to kill Mr Dreglord (though got really close twice now) and he is a definite contender for Top 3 boss in this game
||(Though I do wish he would stay still a little longer
)||
had the most stacked run for the dredlord but unfortunately we have some back timing with his big aoe when two of us went down that we all got wiped
if that didn't happen, 100% would of won that
got relics for scholar, he feels good but i don't want to see myself matchmake with more than one scholar, two can still work but god forbid we have a full party of scholars that is probably not going to go well
just like ds1 
i might be misrembering, i think he only did this in his intro and it wasn't a grab in ds1, just does the combo movement.
dlc boss is something
Took Scholar into my first run of the new DLC map
Kinda went horribly
He really doesnt do any damage
Especially since the main goal of the map seems to be breaking the big crystal to do a boss rush
The map feels kinda small
Im not sure if its because its underground or because the crystal takes up such a large part of the map or because most of the bosses seem to be in the boss rush
the new map is kinda hyper linear unless youre ok with knowing where the bottomless pits are and where the layers of the map actually are
also scholar needs arcane weapons and thrusting swords i think are 100% ass for him
there's a fair bit of verticality
you are more of a support class, your scaling is middle of the road for most stuff outside of very high arcane
you can get more dmg in with relics like one that gives your ult damage over time, more dexterity for thrusting swords at the cost of some arcane
Yeah but issue is the game ultimately comes down to wanting more damage assuming everyone is good at the game. Scholar can support but even that is reliant on relics outside of his art
His art can be good but is pretty much useless against a single boss outside the heal. But Recluse's art also heals, and then you have a Recluse
I guess he does let you kill camps SUPER fast. And if youve got an Ironeye on your team, if you coordinate you can blow up any group with combo arts
I should give him more time I guess. I need his relics
using his ult on a mob evergaol is pretty satisfying
Oh yeah does the new map even have evergaols? I feel like I somehow didnt see them on the map
i do think he is one of those classes that needs his relics, his remembrances gives some good ones. last one is a best in slot iirc.
i dont think so? but that portion where youre at cursed health pool is obnoxious
no, i mean on normal limgrave
So the new map doesnt have any evergaols? Bruh
Would be weird if it didnt
devs saw how much people were using the evergaol buff 
Whole DLC so far feels... weird... Im still stuck on then not being able to put in SotE weapons for some reason
also shifting earths do tend to get rid of evergaols, granted this shifting earth is basically a whole damn map
I woulda taken Ringed City weapons too
Yeah I dont know why its a shifting earth
Especially since it only shows up with the new bosses
Just... make it work with every boss?
no but you do have those boss rush towers
clear the tower, get a rune blessing at the top
overall i really like this map BUT the spots where you can get screwed over by the bottomless pits during the end of night do suck. most we can do is keep an eye on where we are during the day to avoid those situations
adding a well spring jump to a few spots might fix this issue
Damn Mohg be doin some bullshit
So I did find a slight fix for Scholar's damage
Get a ritual bell and just use that instead
It does good damage
I do see the value of Scholar though, I think
I will admit, he kinda just sucks at boss fighting. Maybe there is value in his debuffs, I dont know how strong they are
But I think where he is supposed to be good... is wiping out camps super duper fast
Because he's slow to kill bosses, but they dont have time limits. At least not the nightlord and end of day bosses
You can take as long as you want with them
His value might be more in wiping out camps, getting extra rooms, and saving time there
Begs the question though, if you wanted to clear camps quickly, would you want Scholar? Or an Ironeye that just blind fires through the camp?
maybe both and then throw in a dps that can take the agro like wylder
He's been great in long slugfests like the Dreglord, where every damage down debuff actually matters
This map is rough
This guy sucks
We GOTTA stop coming here man
So this place is the castle of this map
But fucked up and evil
I hate this place
This run kinda turned around a bit and started looking better despite me losing 60k runes at the start
But fuuuuuck the valkyries are tough
Scholar has some really good parts about him but his overall poor combat stats make it so hard to not just fall over dead if you get hit
Like his skill acting as a stagger WHENEVER if you time the counter window is incredibly strong on its own
Thats like all of Raider's skill utility, but he has to take damage to do it
Scholar can just do that if you prime an analysis and wait for the enemy to hit you
But if you DO get hit you just explode
What the fuck is a dormant power
i strongly recommend breaking the big crystal first to nullify the curse before going on, i did the same thing on my early runs and we got pummeled.
See
People dont wanna do that
Because theyd have to look for them
We spawn RIGHT next to it
Its basically free runes
Nobody dies to Erdtree Avatars anyways

i have been caught by a few attacks
those large sweeps or overhead club slams that hang for like a second
Jesus christ my current team just dumpstered a Mohg so hard
FINALLY the Valkyries are beaten
I sure as hell didnt carry though
Incredible run but Scholar is just made of paper
At least against the Valkyries
Its funny, you'd think his art would be good against them
But unless your whole team groups up to fight them all together, they just separate out of your range
And then you cant really make use of your analysis counter because trying to keep track of the 2-3 that go after you doesnt really work in his favor
I wouldnt say Artorias feels fully modernized
But its nice to see him flattening people
You're fucking kidding me theres a second phase to the Dreglord
I see now why you said every bit of healing helps
Half my job that fight as Guardian was just trying to stay alive and block long enough to get my art back to revive someone if they needed it
That was a really good team too, all things considered
And also my first Dreglord fight
Fuck thats brutal
with those runs i ended up having a shield for defence
it is, ideally you have the ults from your teammates ready to go (or have undertakers) to really get the most out of that shared dmg effect
or some other strong attacks
The issue is having all that ready when all the valkyries are next to eachother
Which is not often, assuming everyone is split up
Which they probably will
Speaking of valkyries
Their raid effect is so disruptive, it made someone on our team leave the game
And then we got Death Knights for our night 1 boss and that did not go well
Incredibly fucked up to put them in the game and then not give us their weapons
i really hope this gets addressed
2nd run against Dreglord, kinda shit on him
Went in as Guardian with a Recluse and Scholar
We had all the healing we could ever need
I had a very sturdy greatshield
And made fire pillars and shot frenzy bursts while I walked
I pretty much just put my shield up and walked at him
Also, I have only now realized
If you have a weapon with a "restore hp on attack" effect, it counts ANY hit you do as an attack
So all the fire pillars, frenzied bursts, and tornado pretty much turned it into a regen build. The scarlet rot could not kill me
My goat Guardian saves me once again by exploiting boss weaknesses: only doing physical damage
What the fuck does this even mean
Is the first effect like... a separate effect? Like a % change?
Is it a more pronounced stat growth change? To try and skew them towards a different build entirely?
i think it's like increased drop rates
Yeah, that's "Find Crossbows more often" in Soulsese.
man the guy with the pillars made my camera pray for her life
Quick note about Scholar's art since I'm testing it right now: it lasts 20 seconds
The relic effect that makes it deal damage to enemies makes the initial cast do 30 damage, then 19 pulses of 15 damage
Each enemy linked shares 20% damage, so effectively a 3 damage increase per second per enemy linked beyond the first one. 315 damage total against a single enemy, ~57 more damage per enemy linked over the whole duration
Also Dormant Power is apparently, specifically, what boss drops are called
Thats what they've been this entire time. Dormant Power
So the relic effect that makes you find certain items more will appear as boss drops
Note to self: using Undertaker's Trance and then just starting to use Wild Swings is very effective
Would everyone else agree that Harmonia is tougher than the Dreglord?
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh OK
Got a pretty solid build for Scholar goin...
Everdark Tricephalos is kicking my random groups asses. Might have to result to Shield gaming
Yeah dark dog ended up being one of the harder ones. They gave it so much HP
They did that with a lot of the later everdark bosses
They shoulda done it with all of them tbh. The earlier everdark bosses still die too fast compared to their normal versions
Very small minor benefit to Scholar's art in adition to everything else, but
The allies that get threaded together also share damage taken while they're downed
So if you pop his art, you can hit 1 ally and get rez progress on the other
So he does have revive support too
Did they buff everdark Gnoster at some point cause they feel like they have SO much health before
I feel like the boss killed itself before
Everdark Gnoster I think always was pretty chonky, but they might have tweaked how much it uses to rez
The wraith calling bell was nice but does not hold a candle to pot bombs
Yeah but you get a LOT of bell uses
very true
Yknow I heard that Scholar's relic that buffs his dex scaling makes him S scaling
And I feel like that might be more worthwhile
Cause his arcane scaling is good but status effects fall off pretty quickly against bosses
And very few weapons actually have arcane scalings, at least as far as I can tell. There are no Blood weapons, just weapons with bleed
There are no Occult weapons
Plus a lot of his strength comes from his really really strong skills
Damn switching to that relic nearly doubles his dex scaling
Antspur Rapier goes from 84 dmg at lvl 15 to 131
Maybe it'd be more valuable if we had the DLC weapons... give him a damn Bloodfiend Arm
Now that'd be a prime weapon for him
Wtf not even the Staff of the Guilty, Frenzied Flame Seal, or Dragon Communion Seal scale with arcane
Its just int or faith? Yeah worthless on him then
Outside the Ripple Axe and Halberd and then all of Mohg's weapons, he doesnt really have anything benefiting from Arcane. Plus you can still use them, and most of Mogh's weapons are dex leaning anyways
And the Marais weapons, I guess. I never see em.
Man
This shit is haunting me now that I lowered my arcane
Ran into a Condemned Scholar during the Everdark Libra fight that just had no weapons
I'm not sure what they meant by that
Maybe they're calling him useless in combat
The Scholar with no weapon spams Omen Bairns and fly pots at you
Man balancers just feels doomed if no sleep weapon spawns
I dont think Ive seen anyone use sleep on them
They do 100% physical damage, so if you find a shield with some nice stability, you are SET
all the attacks are physical?
Probably not the ground shockwaves or the blade beams but they dont do those much
It really is kinda fucked up to give The Balancers a weakness to sleep and then not add the DLC deep sleep weapons, huh
Which doesnt expand the pool a bunch but its more than just literally 2 weapons, and only 1 actual weapon
And sleep pots, I guess
It did seem like the non-crystal map had a high chance of spawning sleep weapons when fighting them
Yeah but 30 or something sleep per hit is a far cry from dedicated sleep weapons. Unless youve got it on a bow I guess
Patch is mostly bug fixes but this sounds cool if it means what I think it means
OH NEAT
New technically Everdark version of Balancers is up
Yup, it's Everdark difficulty but since they're technically not part of the Night, they get a special name
Can't check it out but I expect it to be very mean
Wow did not think they were gonna just drop them like that so soon
Fuck now I gotta go deal with that eventually
So soon?!
So uhhhh I’ve seen them (not yet fought) and this might be the most insane Everdark Variant yet
Big Damn Boss Spoiler
||genuinely what the FUCK. This is like seeing The Flood in Halo for the first time again / The Thing / your freakiest body horror media experience here||

I just got spoiled on the everdark balancer on twitter before I could play but HOLY FUCK
The spoiler did not prepare me for the actual fight at all
Oh my god
I honestly do not see how they will top this fight
In shock value and just... what the fuck
Dreglord better bring some HEAT

ANOTHER KEITH GARCES MASTERPIECE
Balancers HardMode Discovery;
||The Ulcerated Imbalancer Spirit form is covered in scabs. Breaking the scabs SPECIFICALLY ends the phase and gives you a DPS window as the main Imbalancer gets up slowly. The "you failed the DPS check" attack is the flower nuke. It has extreme damage resistance on spots that aren't the scabs.||
yeah forreal, seeing that for the first time was;
brain stop worky
Hard part is catching up to the damn thing. Its not a fight you can do cleanly, you'll be taking some kind of chip damage
You can outrun it at least
You gotta run REALLY far though
Jumping seems to be better than rolling, since most of the BIG BOOMS are ground based AOEs.
However, the blooms have a big hitbox when they explode too, so it's still so rough.
i want to know who at fromsoft came up with the idea for her to use her spine as her ultimate
Hopefully he got a raise
(Not mine)
"Something's dying, but it won't be me"

oh its a SEEDBUD instead of a brain ohhhh EW
