Elden Ring General Discussion

I can't really see a reason to assume that the Balancers are stronger than the other nightlords though.
The main thing is you need to fight at least a few other Nightlords before facing them, and as expeditions continue the nightfarers do canonically grow stronger with the aid of things like relics and remembrance artifacts.
 
What tiers the Nightlords and Dreglord will get?
The 7 lesser Nightlords would probably scale to higher than the demigods, so somewhere in or above 7-A, though they could get some additional calcs with their skybox change during their fight and some of them causing map-wide storms passively, heck Caligo makes a blizzard that shoots ice meteors that engulfs all of limveld while SLEEPING

The Harmonia will probably put in the same tier as Nightlords but mentioned to be possibly higher due to how you unlock them

Dreglord is weird, the game says its stature rivals that of Heolstor, but dosen't have any of the space-time or multiple universe corruption things he does, still, Straghess being comparable would probably give it Low 5-B, likely 4-A

Heolstor's profile has mostly already been made, which puts him at Low 5-B, likely 4-A, Low 2-C with the Primordial Nightlord's Rune

I see, as for Heolstor, is he going to have any other abilities added?
 
Shit, forgor to ask, about Consort Radahn, does Miquella abilities by himself can be used? Since he became Radahn companion in the final battle
 
The universe of Elden Ring is also infinite, with there being statements from Ranni in the original Japanese text ending of the age of the stars ending stating as much.
Do you have the text, please?

The Greater Will, existing (somewhat) outside of all of this, and creating objects like the Elden Ring which can govern time and space of this entire universe would also put it in the same High 3-A to Low 2-C tier.
Shouldn't the Elden Beast also be High 3-A to Low 2-C then?
 
Shouldn't we remove type 5 immortality from their profiles then?
I think someone talked about this in a vs matchup, but having Type 5 immortality doesn't stop you from being incapacitated, even though you can't be killed. The Demigods are basically not bound by traditional death, but can still be defeated and basically be put out of commission.

Do you have the text, please?
私は誓おう すべての生命と、すべての魂に
これよりは星の世紀 月の理、千年の旅 すべてよ、冷たい夜、はるか遠くに思うがよい 恐れを、迷いを、孤独を そして暗きに行く路を さあ、行こうか

"I shall swear to all lives and souls. From hereon is the Age of Stars. The laws of the moon, a thousand year journey. To all, you may think of the chill night as infinitely far away. And now, let us go on our path of fear, doubt, and loneliness, into darkness."

What she is basically saying is that in her ending she is going to take the Elden Ring in the Dark Moon and transport it infinitely far, to the point where its effects are no longer perceived. Notably, this doesn't stop the Elden Ring from governing the world, just it is so far that people forget it exist and no longer desire to change it.

Shouldn't the Elden Beast also be High 3-A to Low 2-C then?
Not exactly. The Elden Beast is weird because not only is its high end AP possibly just ED, it is also hindered by the fact it has been shattered. I was working on a scaling blog, but to be honest it lowkey has a couple of keys based on this alone.

Pre-shattering Elden Beast would be like Low 2-C, but post shattering its stronger than all other gods to an unknown degree, so it only upscales off 5-B to 4-A
 
but having Type 5 immortality doesn't stop you from being incapacitated, even though you can't be killed.
Yes I know but if I remember correctly there are statements that prove that some demigods are killed, notably Radahn since the goal of the festival is precisely to give him a honorable death.

Also, if I'm not mistaken, Malenia's goal was also to kill Radahn so that Miquella could have access to his soul.

Death does still exist in Elden Ring. However, it isn't true death like how we would describe it. Death, especially in regards to those who retain the values of the Golden Order (like Radahn), is based on returning to the Erdtree, likely to be resurrected. Things still "die", but there is no permanent death in the Lands Between without the Rune of Death.

Also, if I'm not mistaken, Malenia's goal was also to kill Radahn so that Miquella could have access to his soul.
Same sort of thing. Malenia did wish to kill Radahn for Miquella, but if he were to die in a true form, his soul would not be accessible. Godwyn is a good example of a case where retrieving a person's soul is impossible, since his was permanently killed by a fraction of the rune of Death's power during the night of the black knives.

Yeah, so I think we should remove type 1 and 5 immortality from demigods.

I find it stupid that removing Destined Death doesn't prevent people from dying. Type 1 and/or 5 Immo would have been much more logical, but Type 4 Immo seems more accurate based on the information we have.

Also please, could we use something other than this cutscene to calculate Radahn's feat? Because proving Tier 4 using a cutscene with meteorites is not right at all lmao.
most people I talk to about ER scaling don’t use the star stuff, it’s really just there as a possibility, not as the main scaling option. I Remember the first time I read the profiles they were “possibly High 4-C”, guess they were changed at some point

Personally I usually just use the Mountain and Low-Planet stuff for the demigods and gods respectively, with Universe+ really just being Heolstor, GW, and maybe the frenzied flames thing.


Though I do wish there were more calcs for in between Mountain and Low Planet. I always imagined ones like Prime Radahn, Messmer, and Malenia to be way higher than Mountain Level and Placi, Bayle, and Maliketh to be lower than Low Planet. Idk.

I'm just talking about the calculation itself, not the scaling.

Godwyn was reborn through the Cursemark of death into a Greater Rune. So for true reincarnation you require death in both body and soul.

Sorry, I've literally been without power for several days now, but no they all definitely still need deserve both types of immortality. Not only are they not threatened by old age, but they are ultimately removed from the concept of dying truly. Death under the Golden Order is a convoluted process of resurrection, and thus despite its length it can not truly die. Granted, Type 4 does go along with it, but to deny that the demigods don't follow standard death and are immortal in a way is just wrong.

I have a calc for this that simply hasn't been published. It assumes a count of stars similar to how we calculate making a starry sky, although it is still only High 4-C.

So they die without really dying? What is the evidence for that?

We should definitely use this instead.
 
Would the Harmonia's invasion event where they can cause mass amounts of enemies to fight against each other be mentioned as some sort of ability? as well as teleporting others around rather than only teleporting themselves?

Or would it fall under stuff like Maris and Gnoster's raids where sense they don't use it in their fight it doesn't really count.

Well, like we know, the Rune of Death governs all true death in the Lands Between, and according to Miyazaki its removal stopped the fated deaths of the demigods. We know from the Dung Eater as well that souls under the Golden Order resurrect. This is why he defiled corpses with the seedbed curse, and eventually sought to implement the Fell Curse into the Elden Ring, because those who have died would then resurrect as omen. The process by which souls are resurrected in facilitated in a variety of ways, but is likely both facilitated by processes like Erdtree Burial, and also likely transport to the Realm of Shadow, but ultimately the mechanism is a bit up in the air. The primary point still stands, that all souls in the lands between are unbound from the laws of death and instead are resurrected.

I know all that, but I didn't understand the argument that they couldn't truly die despite being killed, but the mere fact that the Rune of Death was removed should be enough for that (even though it's contradictory). Also, Miyazaki only mentioned demigods in the interview, not everyone in general, which is strange because altering a Rune of the Elden Ring should affect the entire world at least, not just Marika and her family (perhaps it's a mistake by Miyazaki).
The lore of Death is the most confusing; I hate it.

Yeah, death shit is a bit up in the air cause there are a dozen different rites for it, ways to subvert it, ways to kill shit, etc.
 
I've decided to make a page for my golden boy, what do you think (I'll add the references and statistics values later):
?
Make sure you do two keys for both. He might even need three since he is made stronger/given more abilities in the age of the duskborn. I think it might also be good to note how Fortissax is the strongest of the ancient dragons, say for Placi likely.
 
so this boss is horrifying and a master piece. funny thing happened too, when the crazy ass phase transition happens she charged me and then I parried her and one of her died instantly.
****** damn it man I really want to fight them but my game is all types of messed up (keep getting the epic server error) and I tried everything to fix it. Welp gotta wait till I can mod the game I guess.
 
Where is that stated?
Fia says he'll come back to life in some capacity as the prince of death.
"I will soon lay with Godwyn. And it will surely stir within me. [The] new life of the golden prince, and first Dead of the demigods, as the rune of Those Who Live in Death. Please, do one thing for me. Brandish this child, my rune, and take for yourself the throne. Stay the persecution of Those Who Live in Death. By becoming our Elden Lord."
 
I've been meaning to do a size calc on this, but it's hard to import the textured skyboxes into blender

Me and Latin were working on it a while ago.
I have zero experience at calc like this so I don't know what to say honestly. Though it would surely be pretty nice to have that calced cause damn!

Best thing we could do is calculate the size of the eye itself, then scale up Caligo's main body to be proportionally as large. I can measure her model fairly easily, it's just the skybox which is the issue since the texture is night impossible to measure without rendering the skybox in blender proportionally with it.

Also, I don't want to bring this all up again, but I lowkey hope the Tarnished pack brings a boss refighting mode that uses the removal of death as a justification. I doubt it, but I have my hopes.

Thinking about it, maybe only the soul in ER is immortal (Type 5)?
