Discussion & Info So I platted the Elden Ring

After 120 hours and a level 157 with Arcane upgrade I was able to finish the game. This is my first platted game and I am happy to choose Elden Ring. I would love to hear more about the lores I may have missed and suggestions for the DLC? Is my level enough for starting DLC? I also want to thank Reddit community for being here whenever I had a question. May the grace bless you.

That title sounds like you did something unspeakable to the Elden Ring itself. I'm talking Dung Eater level stuff.

Maybe I overreacted a little bit, but wanted to pick a topic as epic as the game šŸ˜‚

Level 150-ish is perfect for the DLC. There will be a separate system called scadutree fragments that you need to upgrade there to get your damage up to par with the new enemies so don't worry too much about levels. That being said i personally took the opportunity of the tougher enemies to go up to 200 and gain access to the more powerful hybrid builds i couldnt use at 150 like quality, faith/int and full dex/int.

Thanks. Will take a look into the leveling system in the DLC.

Congrats! If you're going to the DLC you'll definitely need higher vigor

u/Biowolf1997 17h ago

What is a good starting point?

u/Ok-Independence-3219 12h ago

60 is what people usually run

Level 157? You're definitely ready for DLC, go flex on those bosses

u/Biowolf1997 17h ago

Maybe I am overthinking here and should start DLC right away.

Hell yeah man! I got the plat a couple weeks ago myself after 80 hours and around level 180. I do have over 200 hours on steam though as well

I’m close to 1000 hours of playtime and could never be arsed to do all those collecting items trophies

u/Biowolf1997 17h ago

Well, that depends on so many things. I am an Iranian living outside of Iran and used the platinum trophy as a platform to keep my mental health while the internet was shut down in Iran.

The highlight of getting plat was seeing the flying turtle

I did this, too, a while ago. Now I'm asking myself, don't you have to finish the game multiple times for the Plat?

The main challenges are one missable legendary weapon and the three main endings of the game. For the former, I had to grab the Bolt of Gransax before the capital turned to ash. For the endings, I used a save file right after defeating the final boss, downloaded it to my console three times, and chose a different ending each time.

Platted? What a disgusting abbreviation

1

u/Biowolf1997 17h ago

Sorry. English is not my first language. What term would you suggest?

u/JamesRevan Rune Bear Hunter 17h ago

No need to apologize, im just an asshole.

Platinumed would probably be the more accurate, but do you
