The bottles do still have a niche, as they can still do their old damage to massive enemies. Their nerf was an exploit that allowed the line attack nature of rolling sparks to all be concentrated in one tiny area to deal that intended damage to small individuals. So against most dragons, and in hallways, rolling sparks will still put in work. It just can't be used to insta-cheese what it wasn't meant to cheese anymore. Can still be used to giga-cheese big foes.

to explain the Positioning change, essentially when you refight Gaius and Golden Hippo, they're in the center of the arena instead of how you first encountered them, where they're in the far left/right side of their arena respectively. This means after this patch they'll now start their boss fights the same as they did when you first encounter them.

I love that i saw the notification for this patch the entire time i was fighting Gaius. Constant initial charges that i just couldnt roll away from

Seems like this is a quick update just to address the most ridiculously broken stuff, the vast majority of this patch is classified as "bug fixes" so it wasn't really intended to be a major balance shake-up and the nerfs are simply because those things were benefitting from bugs. I imagine they have 1.13 in the works as a large balance focused patch, especially considering how much balance has been the hot topic for people to complain about.

just a small correction, the change to the back hand blades heavy attack made it to where doing a tap R2 could cancel into a roll. it was bugged before where a tap R2 couldnt be canceled by a roll so you would just be spamming roll and your character would have to finish the entire animation before moving.

with the boss fixes with Gaius and the hippo it means they will be in the same positions are their first encounters. The hippo was in the back right corner instead of the center and Gaius was off to the left a distance away and didn't charge at you immediately so it puts them in those positions making the fights a little easier at the start of fights if you didn't kill them in one try.

The smithscript nerf was so shit. Lost 25% of its damage pretty much when used with faith or int scaling infusions.

Oh yeah for me he just never came in the fog door, at all, I thought it was intended lol. The few times he was summoned he just would never walk in.

The text display fix probably refers to how some descriptions of items, weapons, spell etc. just cut off at the end of the last paragraph.

hopefully the summoned npcs mean that in the final boss fight someone wont just stand outside for 5 mins

I believe the part about the placement of the Golden Hippo and Gaius is about how their starting positions are different on subsequent attempts compared to the first. This will be especially notable for Gaius who originally comes running in from the entrance to the next area at first and starting much closer to the boss fog on subsequent attempts where he is free to charge at you right off the bat.

@TheRealJohnHooper

Good point, thanx

Damn, they were prompt to nerf some of this 😂

The position of the bosses, I think, refers to where they appear after the initial cutscene when you first try the boss. If you die and comeback they would appear in a different position in the arena. They may have ensured they now appear in the same place as the first time.

So for context when fighting commander boar dude the first time he has an animation where he rides out from the back side of the arena, but if you die and try to rematch he spawns right in front of the fog wall. So that’s what they changed for that one

You're truly building a foundation here for the channel, great work. 💯

The bosses placement means that they will no longer charge directly at you in a straight line the moment you cross the fog gate. They will be repositioned to the spot where they do their "introduction" the first time you fight them. Meaning, they are a lot more far away and give you more time to summon.

Decent direction, but a lot of incantations and sorceries feel like they are literally not scaling with anything, take forever to cast, and have zero hyper armour.

The amount of people crying about their exploit getting fixed is hilarious. Perfumes were never intended to be god tier weapons, they're an auxiliary methinks

About the thrusting shields and npc summons The shield double hand attack acts both as a block and attack at the same time. Before the correction, this attack would take less stamina damage if you traded hits with an enemy than just blocking making it pretty much the best attack in the game if you connected. As for the npc, some npc summoned wouldn't move until their default standing status was changed, either by attacks of other effects. Extremely annoying if you expected those to help you with a boss fight. Thanks for going through the patch notes, was very insightful.

My guess for the summonable NPCs not behaving as expected is in regards to them de-aggroing. During the fight with Rellana, Leda would frequently stop attacking and just wander around one end of the arena. While she would eventually rejoin the fight, a host having their summon just decide to tale a break mid-fight is definitely not working as intended.

Thio was Sometimes to dumb to enter the Fight. But personaly my Hero, without him i would not have won

The Gaius and Hippopotamus line is because they start farther away on the first time you fight them (the opposite of bosses like Morgott or Malenia, who start closer the first time). Gaius starts the fight by running in all the way from the exit of his arena, but if you die to him once the next times he always spawned in the middle and immediately went for a charge. Hippopotamus I think starts sleeping the first time, but awake the next ones.

The Gaius change is so fucking nice. I ended up just cheesing the charge with Vow of the Indominable because the hitbox of the charge makes no sense and he spawns SO close to you.

The first fight just means instead of the running boar coming straight at you when you enter the fog he'll come from the left as if you entered that area for the first time

Rolling sparks is still solid if you don't aim it at your feet and use it normally

Love how the bloodfiend arm basically got a cat scratch and the perfume bottles were completely neutered. They’re gonna have to rework them completely in a future update to make them somewhat viable or else they just made another class that’ll have as much use as bows.

I think they were mainly just trying to fix the swift slash issue and the one with people causing near instant death, and just happened to throw in a few of the other things that they were working on that were ready enough to use so that it could be an actual update instead of just a hotfix.

OH MY GOD ! Thiollier will stop commiting suicide when I summon him against the final boss ?! THANK YOU ! That dumbass would just refuse to cross the boss gate sometimes, even dying somehow lmao

Appreciate the speed at which you did this, you've earned my sub for sure

I imagine the commander Gaius one is placing him further away as when you fight him he can ram you within 3 seconds of entering the arena

1:33 When you first fight Gaius he comes from the left side gate but on subsequent fights he starts directly in front of you.

I tested Gaius already and you now can actually do something before he spawns right into your face. Earlier if you tried to summon any Spiritash, you couldn't dodge his first dash. Now he spawns in the top left Corner of the arena allowing for a fair opening.
