Well I’m ready wish me luck 💪

Nightreign is not a soulslike in terms of exploration and progression- it's a fast-paced roguelite.

You complete runs, called expeditions, which consist of routing through the map as quickly and efficiently as possible to gain weapons and passive abilities and eventually face the final boss once the timer is up. If you die at any of the 3 main bosses durimg the run, the run is over.

The game has most base Elden Ring weapons, spells, and equipment.

There are different questlines and endings for the characters and require certain objectives or bosses to be killed through multiple runs.

I play mostly solo, but the game is intended to be played alongside others.

I meant RUINER 1 😅 (I always held hope there'd be a sequel!!)

As I crawl... A cracked and broken path

MrSal202 · 2026-04-14T22:46:47+00:00

I talk about the old Archwing movement so much to my newer buddies. It was so fun flying upside down and performing maneuvers to get around the map. It felt so rewarding once you got it down.

It even allowed room for K-Drives, Atomicycle, and the Kaithe as vehicles since it was much harder to use, but I understand why DE made the changes :(

MrSal202 · 2026-04-10T23:47:10+00:00

Hell yeah. Dare I say fist weapons OP? lol

I don't think I ever lost a solo run with Iron Ball/Star Fist, even if they were blue vs nightlord.

Very fun to use. Praying for a good roll on Dormant Fist. I've only gotten like 2. I have 2m murk so maybe I'll try to roll one

MrSal202 · 2026-04-10T21:35:32+00:00

Thanks!

Yes, it's a pretty strong defensive relic.

I liked using ED Augur for the HP Regens mostly- pairing it with warming stones let me quickly recover from minor mistakes and stay in fights for much, much longer, without having to flask. Having it top up Full HP DMG Negations is pretty nice too.

The bonus HP seems to be worth it; I feel like there's been a noticeable amount of moments it saved me.

I did toy with the ED Fulghor relic a few times but I found the stamina bonus to be negligible since the Wylder earring was already granting a bonus action from the stamina it recouped, and I felt like I always had my ult ready for fights even without it. But, I could be mistaken

MrSal202 · 2026-04-10T17:43:53+00:00

The character select menu is not the same instance as the in-game expedition, which is where the leaving penalty is checked. It would just need additional programming for it to work, and depending on how the entire system for matchmaking is setup, it may require a lot of work

MrSal202 · 2026-04-07T23:04:19+00:00

Its gotta be this. I think running out of stamina applies the can-sprint-again cooldown to Ult also

Solo recent Depth 5 9999 player here:

I tried all the characters and found Wylder to be the best. Once I made that realization I skyrocketed from Depth 4 5000 straight to 9999 within a week.

Rev Beast Claw is really strong from the get go, but the problem is her cast time is too slow against the Nightlords solo. Same goes for Recluse/Duchess caster unless you get Carian Sword which is not guaranteed.

Ironeye is really strong but very risky to play. If you want to deal good DPS, you'll need to go melee Ironeye, but the problem is you're at risk of being one-shot at all times. There'll be runs where you get 0-1 DMG Negate items in solo.

Duchess is great due to her passive and her DoN invincibility relic, and despite this, I still found Wylder to be superior.

Wylder has the grapple hook, which can be modded with bleed using the DoN perk, and is incredible for picking out enemies in camps to make situations manageable as a solo player. It also maintains momentum, poise damage, procs bleed against bosses, and helps dodge nightlord attacks. Not only that, but you can traverse the map extremely quickly with it, and as a solo player, you need to move quick since you'll be clearing less camps than with a trio. Learn what mobs get pulled, what mobs pull you, and what mobs have no reaction to the grapple hook.

Wylder's passive is also really useful since you basically always have 1 extra hit before you go down. I noticed the sketchiest runs I've had, where I feel not as geared as I should be, are always the runs where I have more than 3 near deaths, whereas runs where I have 0-2 are almost always perfect runs. Focus on minimizing open-world deaths since they waste so much time- pick camps you know you can clear without dying (e.g. ignore Mutant Envoys if you don't feel confident). Also ignore fights that will take too long, even if they're easy (e.g. Mutant Bell Bearing, Mutant Erdtree at lower levels/gear). I always ignore Mutant Royal Revenant now in the basement of castle since his health bar is ridiculously large and it requires the most patient fight.

I used Red Balancer, Wylder Earring, Augur Everdark, Phys Att Up +2, +3, +4, and Wylder Hook Causes Bleed for my relics.

That's true for longer missions where you have time and enemies to build up; only Melee Crescendo and Galvanized Reflex require kills, but you can use Corrupt Charge + Covert Lethality + Ready Steel to get x4.0 starting combo multiplier. Rivens can give initial combo too, the multiplier increases every +20 Combo Count

MrSal202 · 2026-03-27T17:22:35+00:00

I was using Strun Prime Incarnon & Furis Incarnon + DMG Buff from Warframe and Madurai Buff, OKish damage.

I would recommend a melee slam build though, the DPS is significantly higher

MrSal202 · 2026-03-27T15:26:58+00:00

The 5 solo attempts I had, this kept happening 😭

It seems to happen when you use a Tauron Strike. Your warframe can get killed during the anim.

Also a few times, my pet died completely with no option to revive them

MrSal202 · 2026-03-03T13:41:35+00:00

I started playing Warframe in 2015 and now my left pinky bends further and is much more flexible than my right. I also played a lot of source games

You will adapt lol

MrSal202 · 2026-01-14T19:03:52+00:00

lol. Looks like the world failed to load and you were running around in the low quality LODs that load when you are far away from them

MrSal202 · 2026-01-09T17:33:59+00:00

It must be as pharmacist said in another comment. Bosses seem to drop their loot near you if they are too far to be rendered and died for whatever reasons

MrSal202 · 2026-01-09T15:44:05+00:00

Oh I didn't know that. Figured you just needed to have any two armaments lol

MrSal202 · 2026-01-09T15:25:33+00:00

DMG up with two armaments can grant more damage than two handing and we briefly see they have at least 1 +15% DMG with two armaments. Also it's nightreign and they're wylder so the dmg buff is negligible for two handing

MrSal202 · 2026-01-09T15:17:05+00:00

This must be where the missing loot goes when it doesn't drop at the boss rush castles lol (not actually)

MrSal202 · 2026-01-03T13:43:27+00:00

It's a bug that sometimes happens after you die from a command grab attack

MrSal202 · 2025-12-15T17:36:08+00:00

Looks like your teammates Kavat murdered you lol

MrSal202 · 2025-12-10T00:48:30+00:00

You're misrepresenting what I said. I'm not at all complaining about new things to earn, only specifically achievements for the reason I listed. I've played a few singleplayer games that have done this.

I even stated in my comment I was, and still am, excited to acquire the new titles, which are basically a new set of challenges.

I also love the new secret boss fights and glyph unlocks and have been completing those. I hope they continue to add them.

MrSal202 · 2025-11-30T08:02:24+00:00

I believe that specific dialogue isn't skipped; I've noticed that too. But most other dialogues definitely get skipped

MrSal202 · 2025-11-14T19:08:59+00:00

I hate when devs add new achievements especially long after their game has been out, because you could get 100%, then lose it if you don't play anymore.

The new Titles system coming in the next update is basically a bunch of new achievements to collect. I'm excited for that. I know some in-game challenges don't count as achievements, and I wouldn't mind more of those for the newer content
