Awesome job again, Dom! And THANK YOU for specifically pointing to “doing all the things you need to do BECORE BREAKING THE GREAT RUNE.” It’s absolutely mind-boggling how many “guides” there are for this DLC, out on YT, that completely lead you into advancing NPC questlines beyond breaking points and locking you out of content/loot. Trying to find good loot guides for this DLC that don’t landmine you has been such a chore. Seriously, just that single distinction you’re making sets you miles apart from a heap of other good content creators. Keep up the superb work amigo!

Can confirm the Enemy Respawn is a distance thing, as it happened to me in the base game. I had cleared the shaded castle in Altus Plateau, ran out real quick for something on Torrent, hopped back in, and enemies had respawned. Definitely has to be a loading limitation or something.

I found the two bears and the bear guy very easy. Way easier than the close by Runebears in the other region. You might want to go back to the bear mausoleum place once your character engaged in plot relevant pyromancy. Oh and for the Sunflower Imp hat... In the scorpion dungeon you missed the Imp Head (Lion) or as I would call it, the Sunflower Imp hat. For this, after going up the ladder, you have to jump on the trap and take it all the way up (past the evil toad) to find to the left the hat. The Imps won't drop that thing.

If you’re having hard time with those Spirit springs/Air Springs, just use Mohg or Margit Shackles. It will break the pile of Rocks nearby. It’s in your Inventory. It’s useful in some Dungeons that has those Giant Chariots in them. Also the Feather Armor is useful for other War of Ash skills. Anything that’s jumping in the air. Like Lion’s Claw, Savage Lion’s Claw, or Gravity Thrusting. I’m not sure if the damage is increased by wearing the Armor and using the jumping Attack Talisman, is increased or just need 1 to get the Bonus. But Stronger Bosses, I had to wear stronger Armor. The Solitude Armor Set with Mimic Tear Helmet and a Strong Shield. Cheers

For example: "In episode 1 we covered gravesite plains, in episode 2 we covered Belurat castle." Etc... Then end that section of the intro with "and now this is the next part of the DLC and the next step in our journey which is to break the great rune. If you haven't seen my other videos in this series yet, I implore you PLEASE go back and watch them first before following me through this video if you haven't already. You've been warned! ;) " I mean something like that. You can steal what I said verbatim or make it your own. But I feel like that little warning is a good idea because some people might not know that they'll miss out on quest lines/items or whatever if they just randomly start with the breaking of the great rune after they "did some stuff" in the early part of the DLC

In Talu's ruined forge ther's a part near the end where you climb a long ladder to get to the highest level. At the top of that ladder behind you across a gap are some guys and probably one of the loot items Dom mentioned. I assume you can jump that gap. I didn't want to chance it and thought there might be another way and if not I'd just come back to it. going forward you pull a lever that reverses the pipe in the level, and once you jump onto that pipe there is no way to get back that area. So this is a very missable item, if something was over there.
