“Elden Ring” was able to be cleared even by the manager of the game beginner who managed to die, but it is no exaggeration to say that this is due to the combat maneuver “frost trampling” and the ashes “drops of copy”.
However! After all, if it is too strong, it is usually weakened. Sadly, with the latest update, many of the manager’s favorite maneuvers such as “frost trampling”, “blood slashing”, and “night and flame sword” have been weakened. In addition, the reliant ashes “Drops of Copy” have also been weakened.
I actually tried it after the update, and although I don’t mind the weakening of “The Ashes of the Drops of the Copy”, the amount of damage of the combat maneuver “Frost Trampling” is clearly reduced. It is almost no longer used now. Well sorry.
On the other hand, magic and shields have been strengthened, so fight seriously and defend well in general. It is an update impression that the management side’s speculation can be seen through.
If you are a beginner of Elden Ring and have not cleared it yet, it may be easier to reach it once without applying the update.
By the way, I’m playing with a skill-specialized sword main (samurai), but now I’m using the “Shioyama Blood River” as my main weapon and using the combat maneuver “Death and Death”. The technique is quick, and the damage and attack distance are well-balanced, so it’s highly recommended.
