In a new post on theElden Ringsubreddit, user Galdiuz2 highlights how players can become extremely powerful early on in theShadow of the ErdtreeDLC. The user shares a path that Tarnished can use to get up to Scadutree Blessing level 12. However, another user quickly corrected the original poster by sharing that they missed a few more on the map which can be used to take players to level 14 instead.

When reaching Scadutree Blessing level 14, the damage multiplier is raised to 1.90x while negation goes to 0.526x, meaning that players will be able to deal almost twice the damage while taking almost half.

Using these newly added items can be a game-changer for players who are struggling with thebosses inElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. While the final boss has been called out by many players as being the most difficult battle inShadow of the Erdtree, early ones such as Divine Beast Dancing Lion and Rellana Twin Moon Knight aren’t necessarily a cakewalk. While it might still take players a few tries to defeat them, getting these new items can help ensure that players won’t get defeated in just a few hits.
