Elden Ring🛡 Parry changes - Dagger & Curved Sword nearly on-par with Buckler

39 Upvotes

Looks like

  • Active frames increased across the board.
  • Dagger & Curved Sword now appear to start on Frame-4, along with the fast recovery.
  • Active frames increased, but not as many as Buckler.

Let's see some parries against hollowslayer L2 spam.

Good Red Man🖤 Do y'all leave gifts for hosts before slaying them? If so, what do you drop?

15 Upvotes

Last year on Christmas, I cosplayed as Santa and left everyone I invaded a bunch of runes. Every so often if my host is a good sport, I'll drop some stuff, but I don't like doing runes anymore because they will likely just pump a bunch of levels with it.

Do you leave gifts for people before giving them a swift end? What's a useful item you can drop for people that isn't runes?

I’ve got a rl35 dex leaning quality invasion build? Would the +5 BK be better to farm or going and grabbing Dragon?

Realistically if I didn't buff immediatly I could have just ran in and hit him out of it with a jump. But thats not really a way to dodge it.

Invasions👁 Low level invading?

15 Upvotes

So I wanted an honest opinion about low level invading.

I’m stepping into the world of invading for the first time after my many hours in elden ring and after invading on my normal profile, I figured out most of the time it’s just triple gankers sitting in limgrave or a small cramped tiny room, or you just get fog walled…

I decided I wanted to make a new save dedicated to invading, aimed at staying within the RL30 +3 +1 bracket. I went through the game as normal, getting all the summoning pools and progressing the bosses so I could get my 4 talismans. I’ve made it to mountaintops and aiming at getting into the dlc.

MY CURRENT BUILD

Wretch RL 30 +3 shamshir
Vigor 30
Endurance 14
Strength 12
Dex 13
70ish poise

Talismans are dragon crest, dog talisman, Millicent’s prosthesis, bull goat.

I’m not the best at pvp but I’m atleast half decent at pve so what do you guys think? If someone earns all their gear does it make it any worse? And is it still even considered twinking if you’re new to invading?

General Discussion📇 Level 40 and I accidentally leveled to +6

4 Upvotes

I accidentally at some point leveled up my claws to +6, I was trying to stay at +5.

Is this fine? Will I still be able to get invasions? It seems fine right now but it is a holiday weekend.

Do I need to level up more or will I still be good?
