How to Prepare for Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC
In this Elden Ring Expansion Checklist Guide, we’re going to be talking about how to prepare for the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. We’ll be asking you the important questions such as what you want to do with your character? Do you want to create a new character? Or would you rather use an existing character when you go into the DLC?

We’ll also discuss why you might want to start New Game Plus, why you might want to start over fresh with a new character, and some of the things you should probably do before you enter the DLC area.

    Hopefully I will survive the wait...😂
  • @TheKniteOwl2686
    I like Cowboy’s strategy of going in really high level on NG+ and try to do an every man build to be able to try all the weapons
  • @femloh
    I think you missed defeating Radahn as well. I read somewhere that might be necessary for the DLC access as well.
  • @nejiefelipe
    I think it's worth to mention seing that the new area is "the shadow lands" holy damage builds might raise up in value...
  • @samsalah5611
    Great video, Miyazaki did say that the dlc scaling will be different than base game because they took consideration that people would be high level and OP and will get nerfed in the dlc if i understood right
  • @Mischievous_Moth
    I'm playing through on a new character to shake off some rust and get back into the groove of things. Playing with just the Lance and a greatshield since I finally found the lance.
  • I’m a role player through-and-through. I will likely not worry about getting there early or late. I will get there precisely when I mean to get there.
  • @daniel698324
    Miyazaki already confirmed that the entry to the dlc is indeed through Miquella's withered arm

    Your Elden Ring videos are the best! As someone who isn’t a gamer and never knew of FromSoftware games until ER, your videos have been extremely useful as I make my slow painful but enjoyable grind through my first ER play through. (I’m just now to the capital outskirts and windmill area after around 90 hours.)
  • @TheFartbreakKid
    I'm going in as the Loathsome Dung Eater and wreak absolute havoc on all that cross my path.
  • @ddangho914
    Gonna make a character that kept Melina and Malenia alive just to see if they'll have any special dialogue. Maybe even progress Ranni's quest up to the point of beating Radahn since defeating Radahn is one of the prerequisites of the DLC.
  • I am at a new game + 4, I collect everything I'm ready for anything , about time this winter is coming. 😎
  • @habequiddam
    Great video, nice to see ER cropping up again on the Fextra account. FYI, Miyazaki stated in an interview that Mohg's boss is indeed where you access the DLC.
  • @Sbart117
    Decided to start a new game with my primary character build. Hopefully by the time the dlc comes out I'll be ready for it
  • @DirtyK94
    This was the exact video I wanted to see as I left off right in the middle of a NG+ run about a year ago
  • @JarisJ_
    I was already preparing for NG+ and gathering all the weapons/spells/incans I wanted. Then helldivers 2 came out and haven’t been back on it since. This reminded me I need to finish my own check list
  • @RockerBoy20045
    I'll continue with my main. I didn't take him to NG+ and I really rushed through some of the endgame zones. Ended up at level 144 which seems just fine for the DLC. For now I'll find/respec to a build I like (I went battle mage but I want to try crusader), collect all the talismans I'd want and all the smithing stones to upgrade whatever weapon I find in the DLC that I really like - and wait before Miquella's Egg! I spent over 120 hours getting everything I wanted on this character back then - there's no way I'm starting from scratch.
