I recently finished up a new playthrough ofElden Ringahead of the release ofShadow Of The Erdtree, making sure I had everything tied up so I could dive straight into the expansion.There are a few things you need to do toaccess the newElden RingDLC, including defeat a previously optional boss that the vast majority of playershave struggled to best.Having just recently beatenElden Ringagain, one thing I’d forgotten is just how annoying the game’s final boss is.AdvertFor those who haven’t gotten quite this far intoElden Ring, the game’s last challenge is a two-stage boss battle. The first fight against Radagon Of The Golden Order isn’ttoobad, but when the Elden Beast appears for the climax is where things get hairy.It’s not that the Elden Beast is inherently difficult, to be clear. It’s more that you fight the fecker in a massive arena, and it will frequently fly or teleport miles away from you, leaving you to jog after at. If you’re lucky, you can get a few more hits on it when you finally catch up, before it flies away again.It’s an incredible pain in the ass. Fortunately,FromSoftwarehas now released a new update to prepare for the DLC (which we loved).This new patch makes a ton of changes, and you can download it regardless of whether or not you’re picking upShadow Of The Erdtree.AdvertYou can read the full patch noteshere, but the most notable change is that you can now summon Torrent, your spectral steed, in the fight with the Elden Beast. Quite possibly, this is the greatest update to have ever been released anywhere.This is a complete game-changer that should make the final fight considerably less irritating, and probably quite a bit easier as a result.
