Torrent against a god, 20 foot dogs in a rotting hellscape or dragons the size of a mountain : 😎

Torrent in a spooky forest: 😱

I really hoped to learn about Gloam Eyed Queen in the DLC...

[Morrov]

Another fun fact: Scadu comes from the Old English Sceadu, pronounced... shadoo.

The Scadutree is simply the Shadowtree, but written in a suuuper archaic way.

@Ziostorm @7:28: Since the DLC basically confirms Melina as Queen Marikas daughter (by indirectly referring to her as Mesmer's sister who shares the power of flames to burn away roots/branches of the Erdtree), we can finally fully interpret her ending cutscene. Queen Marika defeated(!?) the Base Serpent and sealed it away with her scarseal inside Mesmer's special eye. So it's quite safe to assume, with all that we know about The Gloam Eyed Queen being Marikas enemy before, that she defeated her aswell and sealed away her power with her scarseal inside Melina's purple eye. So by following the analogy to Mesmer, Melina basically inherits he power of the Gloam Eyed Queen now and should be able to use it, when necessary. (Which is probably what's hinted at with her ending cutscene. Awakening that power to follow and fight the player character for ultimately betraying the Golden Order with Rani.)

The shackles work by counting as a collision btw. They have insane range and verticality too. You can use them to break the hanging pots and reveal illusory walls.

I just finished the DLC and bro…why is nobody talking about the similarities between Ranni and Miquella?!
Miquella is shown to have 4 arms in the final boss fight, as we know Ranni does too. And if you get grabbed twice by Miquella he says “let us go together” as well as getting that gesture. That is the exact same thing Ranni says in the Age of Stars ending…hell, they both even say the same exact phrase about a thousand year voyage, just guided by different things. Ranni being the stars and Miquella’s by compassion. These are far too many similarities to be just a coincidence, I’d love to hear peoples thoughts on this.

dual wielding Light and Darkness is they way to go since you will get both damage buff and enemy defense shred, but this requires two playthroughs or someone to drop it for you. also, where you pick the sword up at then determines the altar locations. all three altars have the stone shesth sword and then when the player picks it up the other two disappear and become altars of light and dark instead. ❤

No fucking way you were suposed bring the wickerman to life. My stupid ass just spent 20 minutes pacouring up the wall 💀💀💀

To your point on at 7:24, I have a theory that further connects the Gloam-Eyed Queen and Melina.
And I believe that it can all be explained with Marika's karma of constantly birthing children who are cursed with ghosts from her past.

In the first trailer for the DLC, we see Markia ripping grace out of some flesh. I believe she tore grace from a giant snake's eye and I believe that this giant snake was the Base Serpent who was the God during the time of the crucible. We also know that Messmer is her son and was born with the "Base Serpent" inside of him and that there was nothing she could do to quell his suffering except to seal the serpent away and have him embrace the sins he was born with. Seeing that Melina and Messmer are confirmed siblings, I believe that Melina's curse included having the powers if not being the reincarnation of the gloam eyed queen herself. The Base Serpent sealed in Messmer's right eye and the Gloam Eyed Queen Sealed in Melina's left eye.


I think it's quite fitting.
> Markia kills the Base Serpent to gain divinity? It comes back and lives in her first born son.
> She starts a genocide against the Hornsent people? Her first twins are born with Horns.
> She kills her rival? Oops, her rival got reborn as her daughter.

Honestly its SO weird that there was no trace of the godskin people in the realm of shadow

[allenamh]

Meanwhile Margit in his room getting sleep paralysis

[narommalagonmorales]

The fact of placi's heads on Bayle makes me fking go wild, that's completely amazing

[Birdseed]

Margit's Shackle comes in clutch again. I was so happy when it still worked in the dlc. Best item for finding hidden doors

[Catloaf]

You didn't mention that the old lady will give you soup! Like, literal soup. It's a healing /buffing item. Talk to her again after killing Messimer! I didn't even need to put the lion head back on.

[saint]

zio, the old lady on belurat talks to you if you don't enter the boss fight before finding her, that's how I found her actually

[pepeg]

damn those placidusax heads on bayle is crazyyy
i thought, aight he gonna talk about the missing leg, exposed talons, and wings and stuff, but damn
this fully answered the question about the missing heads

[twilightwarwolf]

The one thing I can think of is when your fighting the Scadutree Avatar. When you kill them in phase one or two, you have an opportunity to critical hit them. And if you do, the following phase starts off with less HP. I think around 70-80%. If you leave them be, the following phase starts up with them at full HP.

[RossAshmore]

If you read the lore on the final boss' armor, it answers a question we've had since one of the very first trailers of the main game, that of what a certain person was whispering to another person in said trailer. Very cool callback that I was happy to see!

[strawberrygemz]

I loved the dlc but it sucks to not have gotten anything on the gloam eyed queen or at least the godskin

[jeremysanders]

It’s extremely saddening that is the only DLC for Elden Ring. Feel like there is much more left on the plate for future DLC’s.
