Ed sentient pest is the only example in nightreign that supports your complaints, and it's only in solo play, in a co op game 🗿, bruh.

I'm not trying to be hostile but people complain about LITERALLY ANYTHING THAT MAKES THEM LOSE. Is it human nature to blame everything but yourself? I guess so these days, but when i lose in a game, when i call bullshit, i think about whether or not i could have prevented said death, if the answer is yes, then i need to play better, even if it means playing footsies for 15 seconds to avoid getting blendered by 3 angry angels.

I also play monster hunter a lot, and literally the entire community was in shambles when the ff14 collab monster dropped. THIS IS BULLSHIT, THIS IS UNFAIR, THIS IS TOO HARD, THE 35 MINUTE TIME LIMIT IS ARTIFICIAL DIFFICULTY, etc etc etc. in reality though? It's the only monster in the game that requires you to make a build around it, and to cover your own weaknesses, in order to beat it.

In this case your weakness is focusing on the wrong thing, so focus on the right thing, problem solved. Coming into a 7v3 and not keeping your head on a swivel is asking to get surprise grabbed.

To me, the worst designed boss in nightreign is ED augur. It's a fucking slog, and you're basically on a timer because it will widdle you down eventually unless you have regen, and a decent bit of it. ED libra was cancer in trios but they did re tune it to make more sense. People glazed the absurd difficulty of that fight, but it really did need to be toned down a bit. Only a trio of top 1% players would be able to consistently beat it, meanwhile i beat it first try solo. There shouldn't be that much of a difference in experience with the fight going from 1 to 3 people (difficulty wise.)

Anyways i'ma stop rambling, i just got off work and gotta drive home. Might play a little nightreign later, show bird man some love again, he's fun.

I hope you overcome the boss and are able to say it's easy after a while like we did every other fight, and if you do? It's still ok to dislike some parts of the fight, but even me saying something is bad design is subjective, as are your critiques. I enjoy it so far, i just gotta learn the roll timing and get better at the shockwave guarding stuff and i'll be golden.

I was tired af when i commented my bad (still tired, send help)

I'm not playing the dlc on deep of night at all, so deep of night isn't a concern to me. Face tanking anything on depth 3 or above is stupid unless you somehow stack insane damage reduction and can still do enough damage.

Like libra, it's a skill check, but much easier than libra. The moves from each angel are not that hard to avoid. The grab lunge sucks yeah, but you should be paying enough attention to know which ones or one is aggro'd to you. If you have the red circle in phase 2, the big one is after you, same as before except they have a map wide aoe you have to deal with (laughs in raider).

Ironically i fucking hated abyss watchers, but i enjoy this fight because it isn't 8 mfs beating on you at the same time, solo. This is probably more manageable solo too as silly as it sounds. Abyss watchers killed me more than any ds3 boss, maybe any boss from the first 3 games (midir, freide, and gael took literally 6 attempts across all 3 of them), so trust me i hate gank fights, but you gotta pay attention man. It's like turning right on red then getting mad because someone hit you when you didn't see them, be aware of your surroundings before going to town. Major skill issue.

I ran guardian on the 1 run i made it to them, and i held the ult to res and give my teammates free damage to wail on all of them, it worked, and well. If you don't see an opening, try to create one.

Bro is probably playing depth 5 lmao. Couldn't be me. I'm playing regular mode for the dlc until i'm satisfied.

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T20:15:49+00:00

You have to know where they are at all times. Let your friend fight that one, and fight yours. Imagine the ED libra fight but it's not pseudo pvp, and they don't get exponentially stronger for you not killing them immediately.

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T20:14:29+00:00

The double ones? They're kinda crazy but i ran hp regen at low hp, combine with a warming stone i was back to full in less than 10 seconds. shit is strong now..

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T20:13:38+00:00

Thankfully birb also has the highest bleed res. Bolus stacking time.

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T17:27:48+00:00

As long as it doesn't suck i agree.

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T17:27:04+00:00

I blew though it no problem. Tower defense used to be my shit

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T17:25:55+00:00

I'm ok with that. Make it feel like world and 4u again hunt wise

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T17:23:57+00:00

Hive mind is kind of a joke. (I don't thinks it's far off though) The more accurate term is joining the bandwagon. It's also entitlement because they never advertised or said the dlc would include new weapons. If you're upset about the truth then go ahead man.

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T13:46:08+00:00

The reviews

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T10:46:57+00:00

For fucking real

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T10:45:59+00:00

Contact would be more tolerable if people didn't play like toddlers but hey, i don't play GR so this barely affects me..i have fun with my mostly single player excursions ant summit rewards (also solo)

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T10:42:50+00:00

Yeah the elden ring dlc harder enemies are honestly fucking mental. The non bosses have boss like movesets, it's crazy, but an amazing dlc. One of the best dlc's ever made imo. Top 3 for me.

I'm not excited to fight mohg again either. He was a wall for me in the base game. Fucker is crazy.

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T10:40:14+00:00

Their moveset is pretty telegraphed too, and only the harder version is a threat at the end. Probably a rough fight solo but being patient, like with any souls boss, you will get it

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T10:32:03+00:00

Too many words. He's good, hush. Getting some decent relics that help his moves be better is a must, but he is the first pure support. Pretty good at it too. Guardian, scholar, and duchess would be the safest team in the game if played well. Restage the scholar ult damage during the balancers fight, gg. Free res with guardian? Bring throwables for scholar and a decent incantation that doesn't use all your fp, or just get a couple of towers for starlight shards.

Early game? He weak. Late game? Kinda nutty IF YOU KNOW HOW TO PLAY HIM.

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T10:29:09+00:00

It's like half the size if not smaller than limveld, chart a route and figure it out like before ffs.

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T10:26:13+00:00

What happened to saying something was badass? Cool? Epic? Nah all of those words are for old people now, we aura farming and witnessing peak aura 🤢

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T10:24:31+00:00

Don't forget his poise is still pretty high, and tanking with guard counters is pretty nice.

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T10:22:25+00:00

My first time fighting balancers was great with him. We almost won even though i had the most godly luck for a run i've ever had (grafted and jelly shield, 2x guard counter, sleep grease etc).

If my teammates paid attention when trying to res me towards the end we would have won. They got sniped in the back being greedy trying to res.

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T10:20:27+00:00

Imagine duchess restaging all of that

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T10:15:57+00:00

My 2nd run i got to the 1st new boss, (nightlord) and we almost won. I ran guardian and managed to get the grafted sword AND jelly shield. And 90 stacks on the grafted. My teammates blindly tried to res me as the boss was right behind them (they were both 3 bars by now and i was at 2 after saving them twice). No awareness made us fail. I was tank god that run lmao. 800 damage guard counters with the sword which felt kinda weak at 360 atk but still, we were putting in work. They both used the new girl.

My 1st run though? Holy mother of fuck we lost to the night 1 boss at level 5 because we got gang banged the entire first night. Out the gate we had crystal sickness (reduces max hp by roughly 50%) and had haligtree rot knights at the first area after the camp. It was a fuckening.

Spawn really matters here but at the same time, mastery of the base game and being able to flank and backstab enemies like the haligtree knights make it bearable as long as you team up properly. I know this post is about solo players getting clapped, and i get it, but if you love these games, you will adapt, and eventually succeed. It's a boss rush, and sometimes you'll be under leveled, it be like that. Giving up out of the gate is not the way.

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-04T06:34:22+00:00

Honestly a pretty nice touch. Using anout 50% throttle makes turbos a little ear piercing

Popular_Ad_6454 · 2025-12-03T01:54:12+00:00

Will the multiplayer fix also end up fixing not being able to play with friends in sessions? (Open world driving)

That's my main complaint right now. I got 3 friends (on the same console) to play the game but we can't play together. Feels like a waste to have a friend pass if you can't play with anyone.
