The Elden Ring DLC, Shadow of the Erdtree, recently released to mixed reviews mainly due to its challenging difficulty. In response to player feedback, developer FromSoftware introduced the calibration update 1.12.2 to make the game a bit easier. This update specifically enhances the Shadow Realm Blessing mechanic, which provides players with buffs to their attacks and reduces damage received. By collecting Scadutree fragments scattered throughout the game, players can level up their Blessings, improving offensive and defensive stats. Additionally, the update strengthens Spirit Ashes summons, making them more powerful in combat. Despite FromSoftware's reputation for creating difficult games, they responded to player complaints about Shadow of the Erdtree's difficulty. The update aims to address these concerns and provide a more balanced gaming experience for players.
