You can no longer Chanel true power.
FromSoftware’s major Elden Ring expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree, has arrived to a rapturous reception: including the highest score PC Gamer’s ever given a piece of DLC (sorry, Geralt). There have been a few unforeseen issues, of course, prime among which was the deadliest bottle of perfume ever known, capable of absolutely melting through Erdtree’s fearsome bosses.
The culprit was the Lightning Perfume Bottle’s standard moveset, which creates a series of individual explosions: combining this with the Rolling Sparks Ash of War and aiming at the ground had the unintended effect of making every explosion detonate instantly and on top of one another, resulting in unholy damage numbers that could obliterate the final boss in 13 seconds. This also worked with the Frenzyflame perfume bottle. Well FromSoftware nose what you’ve all been up to, and today’s new patch nerfs that sweet smell of success into the ground.
