Wow. In leyndell there is a whole rooftop area on top of the yellow roofs near the start, and imps guarding the roofs. One little area only accessible via jumping off where the envoys are.

This is the first FS game that i've felt 'welcome' in. I've played a lot and it's all clicking in to place rather than previouse games that I have tried. The community out there is incredible, the help and support is outstanding.
I've read a few things about getting more help and advice in game by using a 'Multiplayer' password and a 'Group' password, i've tried playing with these settings and nothing much has changed? Is there an object I need to use?

Can't think of anything good to put here just yet, watch this space...

@Throb I got the following from Fextra..

Setting a Multiplayer Password will make it so you can only be matched for most multiplayer features by other people using the same password. This, however, does not avoid Invasions nor support multiplayer (e.g. summoned Hunters who activated a Blue Cipher Ring).

The Group Password gives special priority to certain multiplayer features from players who use that same Group Password. Meaning players are more likely to come across world messages, summon signs, bloodstains, phantoms, and so on from peers sharing a Group Password.

You need to use a Furlcalling Finger Remedy to reveal Summon Signs from other players. Cooperative Summon Signs are shown in Gold, while competitive signs are Red.

Hope that helps!

@JohnnyShoulder Great info, thank you. Is there a PushSquare group?

@JohnnyShoulder did a bit more digging and I added two groups. You also get a rune buff from time to time, which is nice

@Throb I think someone did post about a Push Square group awhile back. I did have a quick look back but couldn't find it or remember who posted it soz.

there's a new update incoming - https://en.bandainamcoent.eu/elden-ring/news/elden-ring-patch...

There's a ton of buffs to both weapons and sorceries (either increased damage, speed or decreased FP/Stamina cost) and very little in the way of nerfs (no doubt the nerf on Swarm of Flies will be controversial though )

most importantly though:

'Added some event phases for the NPC “Patches”'

Yo Dawg, I heard you like Patches - so wouldn’t it be great if Patches was in your patches so that after the patches you can enjoy more Patches?

@Mega-Gazz I literally say this to myself whenever a update patch drops for this game lol.

@Kairu I never used it against malenia but I did respec to use it, and it was super helpful against Placidusax, or however you spell the name of that particular dragon. At that point I was just mopping up achievements and wanted to get it over with (partly because the run back to his arena in particular is a bit of a slog)

So fire giant phase 2 is bugged in 1.04. He just insta-dies after the phase 2 cutscene

@Mega-Gazz Probably for the best 😂

@JohnnyShoulder honestly I just stay on my horse that whole fight and run between summon signs. Don’t have to even do any damage to the boss directly.

Mega-Gazz

JohnnyShoulder

@Mega-Gazz I started on my horse but jumped off as soon as I reached him. I find horse combat a bit tedious against the larger enemies tbh. Against some like Dragons it is an almost a necessity to avoid their breath attacks, but I always try to face them sans horse if possible.

@JohnnyShoulder ya, but in this case you’re not doing horse combat so much as horse-avoiding-the-boss-and-clicking-summoning-signs. To me that boss is the biggest missed potential because he’s a super cool boss turned into a gimmicky “fight” where actually going into combat is the worst strategy and winning with the gimmick is kinda trivial. So I sit there and eat popcorn while the summons do the fighting.

@Mega-Gazz I dunno, I personally still found it a cool fight taking him him on with all the summons with me, fighting him face on. It is obviously easier finding him on your horse with all the summons attacking him, but it is not like the game forces you do it that way.
