So I can kill the 5 trolls by warmasters hut in about 1m55s, including travel and loading screens. Its about 5300 runes. Takes 3 or 4 swings to kill one.

Anything out there that's faster, at my level? Level 55ish, have up to lake of L opened up.

Doubtful at where you are in the game. Late game there are absurd farming spots

Hopefully the serpent-killing weapon and the Blasphemous Blade use different upgrade material types, so I don't burn a bunch of mats on that one fight only to need them for the weapon immediately after.

So Blasphemous Blade for nerfed hard eh? I hope it's still worth using. My favorite pre-nerf weapon was that axe that cast a Frostbite AOE. Totally savaged PVP and PVE with that a few times.

Is it possible to play pre-nerf Elden Ring? Like installing the game with no internet connection and playing it? Maybe on PS4? Not going to, just curious if it's still possible.

Latest ER story: Saw this small island off the map and realized it's something I had never been to before, then spent a while figuring out how to get to it. Had to go through the Coastal Cave (found a way back into the n00b dungeon too while I was in that area).

The island didn't have much on it unfortunately, just a dragon Shrine that sold breath attacks (that I think are all available at the Caelid one too). I never got into breath attacks in this game. Still leaning Faith build for this one and using Blasphemous Blade and then the final boss' sword (Hopefully I can get that without going into NG+? Probably not).

Whole point of this playthrough is to do the DLC, so I want to avoid going to NG+ entirely. Might not even fight the final boss if I can't get his sword.

Another question, is it possible to get back to the beginning / Grafted Scion without using the belfries? I used my one key on the Azula portal.

Current progress: Struggled through Volcano Manor, fairly certain there are a lot of things there I haven't found. Godskin Noble whooped me, died like 8 times (which is way more than anything else has gotten me in this run). Got him to about 40% a couple times. What a rat bastard that guy is. Trying to avoid any level grinding until after Rykard (when I'll have to to get enough Faith for the sword) so my stats are pretty bad.

One of my most fun runs was all about the dragon breath attacks. The hard part is getting the spacing to use them, but holy hell they wreck everything in a massive area when you can get one off

The little goblin shits by farum great bridge. There 4 or 5 right next to the bridge grace. Kill them then warp right back to the bridge and kill them again. They have no poise, 1 jump attack flattens them then you crit them immediately and they're dead.
