Hoarfrost Stomp was another of my favorites. The melee ability found close to in the Liurnia of the Lakes had both the highest DPS and damage to the area of effect. Repeated use of Elden Ring Runes it could cause frost to opponents. It was a complete crowd control device that was great to farm enemy spawns as well as to destroy other players during attacks. The patch last night nerfed the damage of the machine by a tiniest amount and also increased the time to cast. "I was able to get it in just a few minutes before closing the app and applying the patch," wrote one player. "Didn't even get to use it. It still ruined people in pvp but not as much as I was hit by it last night."

The patch was able to, thankfully it fixed a unique flaw players were making use of to disrupt PvP. The Deathblight version combines with the Eclipse Shotel weapon with the Fire's Deadly Sin incantation to build the death ailment rapidly on players who are in conflict and make them repeat backstab animations. It was reported that the Elden Ring community was split over whether this was an error or a valid element of the game however, it's no longer. A few PvP players who were unaware that the vulnerability was patched are still trying to use it, only to have it swiftly cut off when it fails.

Sword of Night and Flame was a different build that some believed to be damaged. It was located in Caria Manor, the weapon's Night-and-Flame Stance ability let players follow up an attack by using the Comet Azur sorcery to cause a lot of fire damage from a distance. It was able to wreak havoc on unsuspecting PvP gamers, however it it was equally easily repelled by players who knew the way they were acting. In PvE however it was a different OP capability that players were enjoying. The most recent patch still was nerfing it, however. The Moonveil Katana was not mentioned within the notes of patch in any way however it was evidently a stealth patch to lengthen the animation of combat.

This is where things can get difficult when making drastic changes to a game that some players view as an offline, single-player game. "Literally I just received the Sword of Night and Flame the other evening in Elden Ring, since I could not find a weapon that I like," a player posted on Twitter. "Poured every resource I could get into it after I heard that it was good, but then I was advised to update my game. It turns out that the update has nerfed the game to death."

While some patches in 1.03 introduced new content or fixed broken quests It also changed the balance of the game in the manner one would deal with a live-service game. No matter if the changes themselves are beneficial or not, it's something that players have to be able to deal with, should FromSoftware makes more changes in its mind in the future. At present, some players are dealing with it the only way they can is to search to find the latest OP build to Elden Ring Runes buy exploit.
