Nightreign's Duchess: A Guide to Evasion and Devastating Burst Damage
Elden Ring: Nightreign introduces the Duchess, a character class defined by agility and stealth. Inspired by Bloodborne, she offers players a unique approach to combat. Let's explore what makes her special!
Who is the Duchess?
The Duchess is a playable Nightfarer in Elden Ring: Nightreign. Think quick, nimble, and a bit Bloodborne-esque. She's all about Dexterity and stealth, dodging attacks and unleashing some serious burst damage. The official description highlights her skill in evasion, able to dodge multiple times in a row.
Duchess' Playstyle
Armed with a dagger, the Duchess excels at taking down enemies unseen, setting up ambushes, and helping her team escape sticky situations. Daggers are her weapon of choice, and she's getting a unique moveset to go with them. Just remember, she's a bit squishy due to her lower health and poor damage negation.
Unlocking the Duchess
Ready to play as the Duchess? You'll need to find the Old Pocketwatch relic and give it to the priestess NPC at the Roundtable Hold. You can snag the Old Pocketwatch as a random reward from expeditions or as a guaranteed reward for defeating Gladius, Beast of Night (Tricephalos).
Nightreign's Everdark Sovereign Update
Elden Ring Nightreign keeps things fresh with updates like the Everdark Sovereign releases. These updates introduce tougher bosses, testing players' skills. The Darkdrift Knight Expedition received an Everdark Sovereign version on June 26th, offering Sovereign Sigils as rewards for defeating these challenging foes.
The Everdark Sovereign Lineup
FromSoftware has been rolling out these Everdark Sovereigns, with Adel being the first. Fulghor is another, and the Sentient Pest Expedition will pit players against a superpowered Gnoster Wisdom of Night. More bosses like Tricephalos, Augur, Equilibrious Beast, and Fissure in the Fog are slated for future updates.
Tips for Tackling Everdark Sovereigns
These Everdark Sovereign versions are no joke. They're significantly harder than the regular bosses. Teamwork and smart class choices are crucial for survival. The Duchess, with her evasion skills, can definitely contribute to a successful strategy.
Final Thoughts
The Duchess offers a fresh and exciting way to experience Elden Ring: Nightreign. Her focus on stealth and burst damage makes her a valuable asset to any team. So, grab that Old Pocketwatch, master her moveset, and get ready to dominate the Nightreign! Just remember to dodge, duck, dip, dive, and dodge!
