RealVoidMarvin: It makes sense that Heolstor doesnt get any powers from the Balancers, both lore wise and technical wise. Lore wise because they are not actually a night lord, their relic isnt even called "night of ___" like all the others, and is the only one that doesnt have the dark color. Technical wise because they do not have an element, they do pure physical damage, and I dont see how they would make Heolstor infuse his attacks with physical

michalnowacki1489: PSA dragonwound grease adds something like 10% physical dmg to your weapon, the effect from using the incants always did that but the bonus dmg wasnt shown in the inventory

thatlittlemonstrosity: frozen needle not having scholar's moveset really sucked, finally it's fixed

Themootilatr: Can't wait to see how bleed and rot nightlord play

oxyghene: the gladius puppies were very (correctly) nerfed. in depth 4 they do less damage/have less HP (proportionetely) than they did in base game.

just had my first DoN hollow with the doggo as the boss. pretty dope. beat the Dreglord in depth 4 (got extremely unlucky previously in the week so I dropped from 5), didn't have the Balancers yet. had their event tho, I think the boss was Adel, but I'm not sure. had them more than once even, once for sure in the Dreglord expedition. pretty dope adding the new POIs to the normal runs. but I didn't think the Hollow was exactly harder: in a way it was much better. variant enemies give way more runes so by the end of day 1 in both expeditions I had there, Depth 4, we were all lvl 10 or above. another thing: a very, very small % of players even reached depth 4 or 5, so I'm guessing those that have will have the DLC and the expeditions I've had today sort of go to prove it. every single run (5 runs this morning) had new POIs, was in the Hollow, Dreglord as the boss, etc.

targetexx: The dlc should've worked like ror2 and as long as one person has it everyone gets to play the content not the characters

poomar: I just did a quick night aspect run to see the new moves, but unfortunately he only did the white sky split. I guess its still randomized

Equinox-: My only problem is that of all the enemys they added they just had to add the curse blades man

dadbodgamesquad: Part of the problem with balancing is that, in typical Fromsoft fashion, the DLC bosses are markedly harder than base game.

leonardostreckraupp: Did dreglord d5 once and his dmg is a bit too harsh. His HP seems fine though considering its D5, took about the same time as base game (considering we have extra relics and are much more likely to find good passives due to red items with 2 passives). We managed to win but we had very very good passives, in a weaker run its going to be pretty impossible (which wasnt the case for basegame, I could win basically any game even with bad passives), but I didn't play much and DLC is supposed to be harder anyway so I think that's fine

My only complaint is about night invaders in the new swamp POI, you need to go deep inside for them to spawn so it is very hard to do since they don't seem to chase you (I stayed in the same spot for basically a minute and invader didn't come to me)

solarplexusus: when are we getting dlc weapons

ziggystardust1973: I just want them to have an option to set my depth. So I can do the silly builts at like depth 3 and then immediatly do the more meta builds in 5 :/

Xanagin: Hey rad still no new weapons or anything new for the older characters. REEEEEE

TheGamingSpartanA113: No passive FP regen Revenant buff :(

JordanMullen-sx6em: Deep on night lv5 dreglord solo !!? I can't beat him base game solo XD

michaelbarker6732: Does anyone know if the new seeds ONLY exist in deep of night? That seems like a pretty silly and bad decision on From’s part if so.

rocketman093: New seeds are only deep of night right? Would be cool for normal too. I wonder if they'll ever add that to increase randomness.

gopackgo1412: there needs to be a DLC toggle for these changes - so i can only be matched WITH DLC owners - this is too much

BagelGoose52: When you just reach depth 4 and the boss is the balancers:

Enigmatic_Soldier: it is so sad they changed the moveset of the ice needle for scholar

i was so stoked every time i got it since it has a faster and better moveset overall than the other rapiers so i always preferred that

deliriushunter: I just think its so stupid that the DLC stuff can't be used for the base game expansion, legit the worst thing about the DLC, great that its there for Deep of night, but goddamn it..

MinhTuHa-ry4fe: Can anyone explain to me what do rotten crystal staff do, I fire it many time, but it doesn't do rot. In base game, it deal rot when hit with staff, but we can't do that in Nightreign

OKRx1: On top of that, there are no worthwhile rewards.

I played a 40–45 minute run in Depth 5 and end up getting nothing but useless relics.

MisterMusashiii: Can you get the new map with different targets on non deep of night mode?
