I've enjoyed ER so much that as soon as I killed the final boss I was already thinking of what I'd do different on my NG+ run, the same with Bloodborne. Both brilliant games and ones I'm really looking forward to playing back through again, as you say with ER I thought I'd done a fairly good job of exploring and finding every little hidden dungeon etc only to find that I've missed quite a lot. My first play through's were done blind, the next will be with guides so I can make sure I find everything.
I was in the same position a couple of weeks ago, I skipped. I've just finished off Hoarah Loux, going back around then world now mopping up things I've missed (including apostle) and getting max flasks and refills so I'm In a better position for Radagon (who I've beaten already but then I get mopped up by Elden beast). Played the majority dual wielding moonveil/uchi but now cheesing it with blasphemous blade spam.
If you want a good rune farming area I found one near mohgwhyns palace, found it while doing varre quest, another one is those little black ninja guys in north caelid I can’t remember how much I got from them but it was easy if sneak up and backstab them.
Is that in the underground bit? I just tried to follow the pathways that are visible on the map, died a couple of times but other than that it seemed straight forward.
For the rot lake if you have faith there is an incantation which cures rot damage. There is a mushroom armour set which has high rot resist. You can also get the recipe for a rot cure with ingredients you can then farm. 2 talismans also increase your rot resist stats.
I had the incantation in my chest, flame heal me I believe it was called, managed to get across the lake and now stuck on Astel, got mimic tear summon to max now and respected my stats to go with a moonveil and staff build and dropped the flame and night sword, currently exploring the capital
I run the ps4 version for sweet rock steady 60fps - I might have to download the rt ps5 versionOmegalul, RT update has been released, can't wait to try it given how terribly the PS5 version runs already
Same here, I just couldn't bear the uneven performance and ridiculous grass pop-in.
Tried it today and nearly deleted all my saves (500hrs plus!!!). I did the ps4 conversion and wiped over all my ps5 saves. Luckily I have ps+ and dived into cloud saves and downloaded the ps5 er saves and my stress was ended.
I managed to defeat him yesterday after about my 5th or 6th try. I managed to get him down to what looked like 1% health and as I went to hit him he rolled and killed me I nearly uninstalled the game at that point but went back and defeated him on the next try using moonveil and torrent to move out of the way of attacks.
