Patch 1.12.2 has been released for Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree. According to its description, the expansion has become slightly easier to complete.
Changes have affected the Shadow Realm Blessings — a new leveling mechanic that improves character stats. Now the first levels of the Blessing should make the character even stronger. The effectiveness of the final level of the Blessing has also been slightly increased.
Below you can see how the patch affects the increase in outgoing damage and the decrease in incoming damage. The diagrams were shared by blogger Garden of Eyes in his video.
In addition, the developers fixed a bug in the PC version that caused ray tracing to automatically turn on and negatively affect the frame rate.
In the next patch, the authors will introduce new balance improvements. Recall that the expansion received many negative reviews, as players found it too difficult.
