Elden Ring developers FromSoftware have heard the community’s cries that Shadow of the Erdtree is too difficult and are throwing a bone at the players, with Calibration Update 1.12.2 seeing buffs aimed at sweetening the Scadutree upgrade system.

With Erdtree’s difficulty having dominated any discussion around the DLC, it’s no surprise that FromSoftware has decided that it was time for a “calibration update”, sending patch 1.12.2 live on June 24. With this comes a buff to Scadutree Fragments increasing the attack and damage negation it provides. According to the 1.12.2 patch, attack and damage negation have been increased for the first half of the maximum amount of Blessing enhancements, with the second half being more gradual. Along with this, the negation granted by the final level of Blessing enhancements has been slightly increased.
