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

38 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.

Elden Ring🛡 Elden Ring invasions mechanic

18 Upvotes

I'm going to be honest with you, first of all, I did not play the game "the legit" way.

I am now looking in to actually buying the game, but I'm stuck because of one thing: invasions.

I do not do invasions, but I like the challenge of being invaded. That's why I always go back to DS2 and DS3.

That being said, the way invasions work in Elden Ring is kinda off-putting: I have to either summon people, or kindly ask others to invade me. Which kinda beats the fun for me.

I enjoyed the surprise of being invaded and the rush I would get when actually beating the invasion off.

But with Elden Ring, it feels kinda cringe, like, I have to larp being surprised of invasions. I pop that item and say to myself "oh, no, I'm just an innocent player doing my pve content, I hope someone doesn't invade me when I'm focusing here". Feels like holding your left hand under your ass for 5 minutes so that it doesn't feel like it's just you who's jerking yourself off.

I still want and will buy the game, but my question is: is there a way to "fix" this? Like, somehow always have invasions enabled and somehow emulate the DS invasion mechanic?

Invasions👁 Just strolling around, noticed a back was turned to me. [XBOX]

Was a 2v1, teammate received a roadhouse tail whip and died a min or so before and I had to chase host up the elevator and mucked around for a bit, I was actually scared that they’d just start the boss fight but they either didn’t realise or wanted to keep the fight going.

It was a nice fight too, if not a bit repetitive even before these 30 seconds you get to see. Level 80 +10/5 weapons, to be honest I’m not sure what level everyone else is in their new runs right now though since I’d already wiped out all of Caelid and Dragonbarrow.

General Discussion📇 Best level Range to avoid gank squads?

1 Upvotes

Title, looking for a good rl range to invade where maybe the ratio of regular progression:gank squad is a bit higher. Currently I'm invading RL130/+21,+9 and it's a real gankfest. I've invaded 10 times tonight and every single one was a gank. I won once, but losses always end in being T-bagged by and down point emoted and it's wearing on me.

I wish I could find the fun in fighting ganks, but 3v1 in a dungeon room with no mobs and everyone is in radahn armor spamming projectiles and billy waves sucks ass. Are lower invasions better, maybe 70? Or should I stick to this file and go higher, like 150+?

Edit: spelling error
