Updates take time on the FromSoftware side, but as soon as they arrive, they are sure to grab attention. With patch 1.07, Elden Ring is entitled to a complete overhaul of the functioning of its PvP. A major point of the game that was far from unanimous when the game was released. And if the many balancings had succeeded in offering a more pleasant experience, the separation of PvE and PvP scaling will revitalize the mode.
The PvP ofElden Ring separates from the rest of the game
Balancing is always a focal point in games featuring PvP that FromSoftware’s newest has struggled to find. And since this was still not the case, it was decided to distinguish between PvE and PvP to better confront it. By separating the damage scaling between the two game modes, it will be easier to balance one mode without affecting the other.
For a good start, the incantations are particularly targeted and revised downwards, as well as the Ashes of War. Conversely, charged attacks gain in power. It’s an excellent start, which will make PvP more attractive in Elden Ringand why not restart some of the players while waiting for the rest.
On the PvE side, many balances are also coming, considerably increasing the power of certain weapons. Magic also gets a nice boost, with many spells seeing their cost reduced or their damage increased. Obviously, some weapons or overused magic see their impact reduced to diversify the possibilities.
