You will never be Lacrymas! Do you hear me?! NEVER!!!

Lacrymas? Never heard of em!

Also apparently it's still possible to do RCE in Elden Ring and bypass easy anticheat, so I recommend you all stay the fuck away from other players to be safe.

 

[d1r]

I think this is an exaggeration.

Yep, they did fuck up Flamelurker and some tracks and an army of nerds wrote the entire game off for that. P. spergy if you ask me.

Yeah, imagine my shock, some people actually do not want to support sloppy and unfaithful work. Who could have imagined?

 

[Kruno]

Flamelurker was an awesome boss. I didn't die much to it and I was new to modern consoles at the time as well.

 

[Sunri]

60 fps is easy mode

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

Is there an actual pyromancer guy? The dude in the hold only has 2 flame incantations. Dragon incantations require me to raise my faith and fuck that shit.

Some nerd on reddit compiled all the latest changes that weren't quite clear or elucidated at all in the official patch notes:

Spoiler

GENERAL CHANGES

• Mimic Tear Ashes were adjusted. Difficult to tell to what degree since it's a fairly fluid summon but the consensus is that it's a nerf. [Others have said the mimic AI is more aggressive and smarter at dodge rolling, and the damage difference isn't substantial so who knows]
  
  
• Mimic Veil is now contextual and will transform you into objects that correlate to the terrain and the dungeon you are in
  
  
• Unseen Form has improved casting visuals and slightly(?) more transparency while active
  
  
• Pidia now sells a Weathered Map that marks the location of the Amber Starlight needed for Seluvis's quest
  
  
• Banished Knight Engvall was added as the boss reward to Murkwater Catacombs like originally intended. Anyone who has already cleared it should already have it in their inventory. As a result the Battle Hammer no longer drops there
  
  
• Smithing Stones purchased through the Twin Maiden Husks have had their costs reduced [by 25%]. Does not extend to Somber Stones
  
  
• Caelid and Altus Plateau have new night soundtracks
  
  
• Nomadic Merchants at Coastal Cave, Saintsbridge, Mistwood, Castle Morne, Isolated Merchant (Weeping Peninsula), and Liurnia Lake Shore sell limited quantities of Smithing Stone (1) and (2)
  
  
• Bestial Sanctum now has a killbox if you attempt to access the lower sections for the dagger and talisman. I guarantee this one is completely unintended but for the moment it's inaccessible

SORCERY CHANGES

• Glintstone Cometshard changed from 25 FP to 19 FP
• Comet changed from 38 FP to 26 FP
• Shard Spiral changed from 16 FP to 14 FP
• Star Shower changed from 36 FP to 23 FP
• Gavel of Haima changed from 37 FP to 25 FP
• Rock Blaster changed from 30 FP to 25 FP
• Stars of Ruin changed from 50 FP to 38 FP
• Founding Rain of Stars changed from 46 FP to 32 FP
• Greatblade Phalanx changed from 43 FP to 35 FP
• Magic Downpour changed from 25 FP to 20 FP
• Loretta's Greatbow changed from 32 FP to 28 FP
• Loretta's Mastery changed from 50 FP to 43 FP
• Carian Greatsword changed from 16 FP to 14 FP
• Carian Piercer changed from 23 FP to 19 FP
• Night Comet changed from 32 FP to 24 FP

INCANTATION CHANGES

-None found thus far

WEAPON CHANGES

• Weapons that were initially showing a lowered AR when upgraded to +25 have more had their base AR upgrades per level lowered to match that original +25 number. This one sucks, because it's an overall nerf rather than a buff. Heavy weapons in particular were hit pretty hard by this
  
  
• Split damage weapons scaling with Arcane have been fixed (Rivers of Blood and Eleonora's Poleblade are scary good now, at +10 with 55/70 DEX/ARC Rivers went from 372 to 697)
  
  
• Did not get a chance to compare Ashes of War before/after, hoping someone can help fill in the blanks. Hoarfrost Stomp got absolutely gutted, though (about 1/2 range, much slower windup)

SHIELD CHANGES

• Shields across the board have received huge Guard Boost buffs, making them much better overall.
  
  
• Some shields have also received adjustments to their damage negation. I might add these later as the list is already incredibly exhaustive, all values listed below are changes to Guard Boost only. Overall, it seems to be a net positive to most of the shields affected, with the sole exception of the Great Turtle Shell, which has lost a significant amount of physical reduction. RIP
  
  
• Upgrading shields also yields higher Guard Boost buffs, not universal (Erdtree Greatshield+9 went from 62 to 65)

• Rickety Shield changed from 25 to 37
• Riveted Wooden Shield changed from 35 to 39

Dragon incantations require me to raise my faith and fuck that shit.

I forgot you could play a Dragonborn in this game. What has Todd Howard said about this?

 

[perfectslumbers]

Is there an actual pyromancer guy? The dude in the hold only has 2 flame incantations. Dragon incantations require me to raise my faith and fuck that shit.

You have to find prayerbooks like in ds3. One of the fire monk camps in liurnia has a pyromancy prayer book

[ADL]

Meanwhile people are getting banned for using borderless fullscreen.

 

[Great Deceiver]

I haven't tested it yet but it's unbelievable to me that they would nerf heavy weapons of all things and leave Moonveil alone.

 

[Tuco Benedicto Pacifico]

They DID nerf the moonveil, apparently.
Several sources are reporting that it does far less posture/poise damage now.

 

[Lacrymas]

You will never be Lacrymas! Do you hear me?! NEVER!!!

Lacrymas? Never heard of em!

That's impossible.

 

[Tuco Benedicto Pacifico]

Also, for context:

 

[Perkel]

for folks struggling for quality and frames.

AMD just released RSR in their newest drivers. So if you have RX 5xxx or RX6xxx you can get FSR on any game you want.
I switched it on and i went from 40fps @ 4k to 60fps @ 4k. Thanks to this i moved from playing ER at 1440p@60fps to 4k@60fps.

 

[Great Deceiver]

The poise damage was the most broken thing about it. Good news if true. Moonlight greatsword should be the weapon of choice for that kind of build after the nerf then.

 

[Kjaska]

after almost 100h of playtime I found Patches and only because I started reading the wiki

what do I see in his shop? MARGITS SHACKLE. Yeah, I needed that 80 hours ago. Thanks FromSoft, thanks.

Patches' trickery got more sophisticated.

 

[Perkel]

They definitely nerfed a lot Barricade. It used to be around 10 seconds now it is like 3-4 second.

 

[Villagkouras]

Malenia would have been a great boss if she didn't have a second phase.

The shackle only works in his first phase, which is actually easy so the use of the shackle is mostly so you can rush through the boring part to concentrate on his second phase.

Spoiler

It works when you fight him for the second time in the capitol, too.

 

[deem]

The Shackle will also work on Morgott, the Omen King.

You may still get some use out of it. Also, it costs 5k. Nearly a half of the runes you get for defeating Margit.
