Basically, St. Tranny Miquella reanimated Radahn to be his anal consort or something. Lucky for us we get to kill them.

Core plot seems to be Miquella divided into two aspects, St Trinna (feminine) and his now bodyless Miquella form (childlike and more mascaline). The former is sort of the nice one to her followers at least (but still a poison and sleep demigod) and the latter is tryign to ascend to full divine status while being openly at war with Marika. I have not progressed to the point where the Radahn shit is occuring, but there are ample clues about it all over. Whole expansion is a lore dump goldmine.

Were I pure int, I would jump on that one. But I am INT FTH and nothing is coming close to the Uzi Spear. There needs to be a catalyst for pure INT thats at least competitive with the Death Prince Staff, because without that 438 scaling your basic sorc nukes are nerf darts.

God damn. Fuck that run with the sniper balls.
Felt like trying to sprint across No man’s land in 1917.

Not doing the "oh I need to solo or else I'm not gud" route (spoiler: I am not gud).
Doing mimic and Radahn swords special attacks which the mimic spams. Also nice to have one of the perfumes in your hotbar that gives you a defense bubble. I don't think the mimic is limited the actual charges.
Oneshot Ranalla. Did the boss in the dungeon they did at the preview event. Figured I'd die to it since I had fallen for every ambush I could on the way down, had 2 pots left. I think it might have been my quickest boss kill. It tried to get an attack off before it was pulled in by the Radahn sword special, then me any my mimic just spammed it which klled it in rougly 5 seconds.
I just run into packs now and jump off my horse and use the special + smash. Pull in does AE 5-600 damage and smash an additonal 2+k. The pull in stagger even works against mobs like the first gaol knight which I don't think can be staggered by hitting it. He gets pulled and flies back from the smash too. Humanoid invasions are a joke since they get pulled in from so far away, then fly back just as far with the smash. So it's just as good as it was in the base game so far.
The sniper ball run, I just held up my shield. One shot did like 3% stamina and did no damage.
I am thinking I need a better stagger weapon for dragons though while on a horse.

I see what you guys are saying about Putrescent Knight. Pure fucking chaos and a complete asshole.
My biggest complaint is the run back. I've only attempted him 3-4 times, and yes, it's a simple run but FFS, did we really need to do the jump every fucking time??
I know, I know, git gud and all that shit. /sigh

What's a frost pot?
What's a Paladin?
Found my way to the southeast lower level, I think, via a catacomb dungeon with this light-ring hurling boss who was basically a jackass. Shadow Keep seems to open up to the NW area. I think I probably detoured away from the Messmer fight if he is indeed in the SK. This is a bizarre overworld, with all these zones that are only reachable through dungeon side-paths and stuff. Feels like the most walled-in open world ever, TBH.
Not real worried about spoilers anymore myself, knowing who will and won't show up means I won't be let down by the ones they forgot about (i.e. Godwyn).

I picked up the expansion yesterday, without realizing my character was in the middle of an NG+ playthrough. I had only just killed Radahn on this go around.
So I spent last night clearing up through Lyendell and made it to Castle Sol. I'm hoping I can knock Commander Niall and Mohg out early tonaght, so that I can actually jump into the DLC.

Ahh right. I forgot about that quest. Thanks.
I probably needed to knock some rust off my skills prior to the DLC anyway.

Got the putrid knight down and I got the uzi spear. Makes taking down the dragons super easy. Just stand under them and pew pew pew.
Still stuck on the evil sunflower. He's super weak to fire but keeps 2 shotting me. I can usually make it to phase 3 but then I'm usually out of health pots and can't finish him. I might have to go sword and board and see if that helps. Maybe just block and let the mimic kill it with fire.
