2:21:00 Bayle's Tyranny is actually broken right now. The shockwave can ONLY hit one enemy in its radius. He didn't "miss" Rennala, he just nuked the shit out of the student right in front of him. Hope they fix it soon, no point in an AoE that doesn't have an E on the A.

[@jaredcrabb]

Its apparently been fixed. Or maybe "fixed" in the way they broke it the other way. Almost just said "Its broken the other way now. Holy fuck it melts." Then noticed you said Tyranny and not Flame Lightning, which is the one I got.

[@chrisg6654]

Messmers orb for sure needs hyper armor on the dive. Maybe not the charge up, but for sure the dive

[@tinminator8905]

Yeah, honestly thats why I think Bayle’s flame lightning is just a better version of it. It is slightly slower but deals about 80% more damage and has infinite hyperarmor. I think he is honestly underrating that one compared to Messmer’s flame orb.

[@nem6191]

​@tinminator8905 Bayle's flame lightning doesn't even have infinite hyperarmor. It's like a worse version of dragonmaw's. You can even see Gino getting hit by Gaius while he's midair but then getting canceled out of it right before the slam actually happens

[@tinminator8905]

@@nem6191 It does. There are attacks that knock you down no matter your poise. Anyone who has used the ironjar aromatic, which also grants infinite poise knows what I am talking about. I assure you, I have tanked 5+ hits from bosses such as Rellana and never got cancelled out of it. I also assure you that dragonmaw is far worse, as it is slightly slower and deals way less damage.

[@nem6191]

@tinminator8905 Maybe because im not intentionally trying to get knocked out of attacks but I've never gotten dragonmaw canceled, while I've definitely had Flame Lightning get knocked by the same attacks. Dragonmaw is also not slower, yes it has higher windup but the recovery is lower. And the damage difference I find is a fair tradeoff because it's more consistent (ive had times where even though the visual hit by all means, only the lingering magma did damage for example), it still does absurd damage upwards of 4k if you hit with the actual jaw, it does far more poise damage, and I much prefer pure physical damage over a 3 way split between physical, lightning and fire

[@jaredcrabb]

​@@tinminator8905 Ironjar does not remotely grant infinite poise. Its only like a 70% or so increase. Also, some of those were bugged, like Bayles spells, and have been fixed now if it hasnt been mentioned (I just HAD to comment on the one VERY wrong comment).

A tip for Midras Frenzied Flame: You can use Howl of Shabrir continuously to proc Madness on yourself, and equip the new Talisman that reduces buildup after proc. Then get Aged ones exultation + Maddening Hand + Frenzy Flame Seal offhand Proceed to obliterate Bosses with the slower madness buildup and insane damage. Not the best boss killer spell but one of the most fun imo

It might just me doing the builds wrong but madness builds never do that good against bosses but are always fun.

​​@@dbishim6409against any bosses that are large and weak to fire, the unending frenzy is just a really high DPS fire incant (Midra's Flame of Frenzy is kinda just a downgraded version unfortunately). obviously bosses can't be procced with madness itself, but the spells do really good damage aside from that.

I was chatting with a friend, going over the DLC spells, the ones I had, anyway. I think I started with the new lightning spear, and immediately realized it was a powerhouse. After realizing most of the spells were fairly solid, my friend mentioned rain of fire, and I was like, oh yeah, i should try that. I did, and said to my friend "it's like founding rain of stars, but an incant" and the immediate response was "oh, so it's useless, got it"

21:18 You’re using it in all of the wrong situations. It’s clearly intended for 1) very large enemies with a big top-down surface area (like Founding Rain of Stars), or 2) groups of fire weak enemies like the finger creepers in the Metyr quest areas of the dlc. Using it on a small knight, who is standing in water, in the rain, is not where you’re intended to use it. On the other hand, that is the PERFECT situation for knights lightning spear.

[@devilmancries9617]

Watchful spirit only locks on to the thing you're currently locked on to when you cast, so if you switch targets or cast it locked off, it won't track your current target I think the suggestion to use it on invisible enemies is interesting, like if you cast it while you see them, yeah it works and each projectilec will still track after losing lock on.

The funniest thing? You used Rock Heart for most of the run, and if you used Priestess Heart, then KLS would've done 20% more damage. Edit: And you swap to it at 1:56:04, heh.

[@FallenKnightZephyr]

I wonder if the Knight's Lightning Spear effect in water is based on the fact it's a multi-hit. Using arbitrary numbers, if the original spear does 2000 damage, and the 6 extra spears do 300 each, they're getting a bonus 10(?)% in water. So instead of doing 2200 in water with the extra spears and bonus at 1980, it's instead using the original damage value an extra six times. 2000+200, 6*300(spear damage)+6*200(water damage) So rather than 2000+1800=3800 dry 2200+1980=4180 wet it's 2200+1800+1200=6200 wet

[@jaredcrabb]

It doesnt, unless that was changed in the patch. Id still use base Lightning Spear personally. Unless that was fixed and theyre wet it still does about 75% of the damage, but is mich cheaper and faster. Still a cool spell and I AM a lightning magic Abuser

[@Paul_Frank]

The use case for light of miquella imo is the fact that even if you're hit out of it, the second you press the button it will come out no matter what. So if you use it point blank then get smacked, it still hits them, and if they're in an animation, they just eat it

[@jaredcrabb]

That must have been fixed in the patch, cause when I used it if I was knocked out, it never happened, like everything else. Thanks for the info, thats the coolest spell in the game.

[@xenox2455]

So here's my theory of what happened to Rain of fire. Miyazaki played Gothic and for some reason decided to make its power literally opposite to what it was.

[@jaredcrabb]

Nah, I think he said "its a fire Founding Rain of Stars, lets make it weaker."

[@starbomber]

I was messing around with the Feathers spell, and it does do physical damage which means it's kinda annoying to buff, *but*, if you can get all the darts to hit it can do some solid damage. Granted, it's nowhere near the damage of a spell like Pest Threads or Lightning Spears, so I think it does belong in D tier, but there are some use-cases for it. But the fact that it's found in the same area where you find Spears and Spears is just kinda a better version of it, there's no question that it's pretty bad. Also Distortion2 I think did a run where he played through the entire game using *only* the porcupine spell, and he was able to do it, and some bosses take a ton of damage from it but yeah it's *very* situational.

[@srnotms]

i like this new commentary thingie thats goin on

[@yaksher]

Light of Miquella having insane range is nice. It's not winning any awards for DPS or efficiency given how slow and expensive it is, but the fact that it has insane range makes it have at least a use case in clearing areas, which is nice, because there's enough boss killers. I feel like Watchful Spirit would be fine at its current damage if it lasted like 30-60 seconds like a buff instead of for like 3 shots. Then it would provide some extra DPS and harry NPCs and occasionally stagger things without being broken and, tbh, it'd be neat to have proper auxiliary spells that aren't just the phalanax-type spells which fire for one shot. I'm convinced that Rain of Fire is meant to do 10x more damage. Like, if it did 10x more damage, it'd be right about what you'd expect from a midrange-to-decent incantation which is too slow and inconsistent to really use effectively but at least is, y'know, something. And it'd be so easy to just forget a 0. Surely that's it? Because like. It was doing 600 damage per cast to the avatar fully buffed when Catch Flame did 3500. So if it did 6000, that'd still be

[@jaredcrabb]

Thankfully Rain of Fire was buffed, though as Ive beaten the dlc, have Hundred Heroes, and my Dragon's Dogma data seems to have disappeared, I havent gotten to play with it since the buff. I so wanted it to be good. Light of Miquella is the coolest looking spell in the game, but yeah, costs too much (for me in memory slots, and theres too many cool spells) for me to use too much. Especially since the Circlet of Light is the coolest headgear in the game.

[@raszota8466]

I figured out the Midra tracking bug. The light of Miquella autoaims to the nearest enemy in your LoS even if its behind 4 dimensions and 50 walls. Wich means fromsoft stores the body of the big Midra behind the wall. In Enir Illim if you spawn at the pre final boss grace and free aim it down the stairs, the light goes down in the building trying to hit the closest enemy, the lion masked guy.

I hope Fromsoft get around to patching the game again some time this quarter. Half the spells that should be getting boosted by certain pieces of equipment aren't, Furious Blade of Ansbach still doesn't have its bleed buildup, making it effectively just a very sub-par fire spell with awkward stat requirements and the balancing is still all over the place. Rain of Fire deals almost no damage in spite of having a high faith requirement, Divine Bird Feathers is three times less FP efficient as it is probably supposed to be (in case you're wondering: If you channel it, it tics for damage every .3 seconds but uses FP every .1 seconds) and Impenetrable Thorns deals an absurd amount of damage and bleed buildup in spite of only costing 15 FP and having a very moderate faith requirement. Oh, also the new crossbows use a gross amount of bolts to deal a neglegible amount of damage whereas Ansbachs Bow uses the same amount of arrows to deal an absolutely gross amount of damage. Not that crossbows being bad is anything new, but still.

In case anyone sees this, and you want to use one of the dragon hearts, be sure you fundamentally learn the major difference between Dragon Cult Incantations and Dragon Communion Incantations ;) The Priestess one is for the CULT whereas the rock heart is for COMMUNION. They do not do both lol. Alternatively, learn the damage differences between a spell focus that has a 10 - 20% damage boost but low scaling vs no boost and high scaling. The Dryleaf and Spiral Seals are literally the worst focus items in the game due to having the worst scaling lol. Even if you dual wield them, the bonus to the specific incants they do still does less than just using a Golden Order Seal. Offhand it and stick with either Golden Order or Dragon Communion seals.

I actually did pay attention when I got the Priestess Heart, but I was stoned so still tried to buff Ghostflame Breath with it🤣 Then I remembered, but since I was stoned went back and checked anyway, and sure enough I was being an idiot cause I knew that anyway. I also prefer the Golden Order Seal and I usually have equal intelligence and faith, and with an A scaling in both it has the highest incant scaling for me. It even outdamages things like the Gravel Stone Seal for Dragon Cult spells, the Communion Seal for Dragon Communion spells (stoned again, almost typed something else🤣), and the Godslayers Seal for Black Flame spells. I sold it cause I was gonna start a new game and just transfer the Godslayers Seal so I had 2, but decided to keep the character cause I ended up getting the money for the dlc day 1. With I knew I was gonna get that money from uber.

The beatbox rabbit hole runs deep and its so fucking good

[@FazeCShot]

Love the new style in the beginning!

[@CaptunAlfred]

Would it be possible that the rain of fire incant scales with intelligence? Im not sure if anyone's tried it out yet, but the fire knight's helmet that uses it gives you extra int, right?

[@jaredcrabb]

Nope, was just trash cause its been buffed. And the one that buffs it doesnt give intelligence.

[@Spaltentier1337]

I would like to see a Minor Erdtree and Rain of Fire only run 😂

[@Lucky0rbit-i7s]

Ngl…seeing how the dlc is… I am not ready for the amount of anger, pain, and FUCKING CONSEQUENCES OF MY OWN ACTIONS 😂

[@GAMERGO00N]

Such a pleasure watching this live

[@sh-ogun]

Bro that “what is up everybody” is so bland but the way he says it and keeps saying it everytime is so fucking funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣. It’s actually pretty unique now

[@alexkazam444]

Would be very down to see a DLC unique ash of war only run (Where you just spawn a crap ton of larval tears in to switch up ur stats to use the weapons)

[@DHDragon]

"I'M ONLY USING DLC INCANTATIONS!" >immediately proceeds to use Flame, Grant Me Strength and Catch Flame

[@jaredcrabb]

Pretty sure youre joking, and if you are, 🤣😂😆😁😄. If not, he means for damage.

[@AVGNathan]

[@WD40GUZZLER]

Idk

[@johnweaver311]

Gino kidnapped Hunter and now forces him to live in his basement, never allowed to sleep, only edit videos. One day, perhaps, when there is no more Elden Ring content, Gino may finally let Hunter go home.
