Power Progression in the DLC
The Elden Ring DLC offers a different approach to power progression compared to the main game. Levels matter less, and the focus shifts to acquiring scatter tree fragments and revered Spirit ashes. These upgrades significantly increase damage output and reduce incoming damage, allowing players to survive the challenging enemies and bosses in the DLC. It’s important to prioritize finding more scatter tree fragments and revered Spirit ashes throughout the shadow realm to strengthen your character.
Defeating Lowly Shadow Enemies
While navigating the shadow realm, it’s easy to overlook lowly Shadow enemies with glittering pots on their heads. These enemies drop valuable loot, including revered Spirit ashes and scatter tree fragments. Players should keep an eye out for these enemies scattered throughout the various zones and take the time to defeat them and collect the loot they guard. These drops are crucial for power progression and should never be ignored.
Streamlined Inventory Management
A new feature added in a free patch for the base game is the ability to mark new items and show recent items. By enabling these options in the settings, players can easily identify new items in their inventory and access a separate section that displays all recently acquired items. This streamlines inventory management, especially for players with jam-packed inventories, ensuring that no valuable items go unnoticed or unused.
Strategies for Defeating Furnace Golems and Obtaining Early Game Gear
Furnace Golems are massive World bosses in the shadow realm that unleash fire-based attacks. Players can effectively defeat these enemies by targeting their susceptible legs and hacking at them until they break. However, some Furnace Golems are armored and require a different approach. By acquiring the greater potentates cookbook, harvesting resources, and crafting the Hefty furnace pot, players can deal significant damage to armored Furnace Golems and reap the rewards. Additionally, Legacy Gaming provides tips on obtaining early game gear, such as the beastclaw, black steel great hammer, and backhand blade.
Farming for Specific Items and Navigating Hidden Locations
In Elden Ring, there are various weapons and armor sets that can be farmed from enemies. To increase the chances of obtaining specific items, players can strategically use silver and gold horn tenders, which increase the drop rates from enemies. Legacy Gaming suggests farming for these items in the poison pools at the base of Bellot Tower settlement. The video also provides guidance on navigating hidden locations, including the Cerulean Coast, Bonnie Village, Charo’s Hidden Grave, and the Runes of Un. These hidden areas offer unique loot and secrets to discover.
