The Convergence Deep Dive | Elden Rings Must Play Mod

hello everybody today we're going straight into the convergence mod for Elden ring Hamad which allows you to do stuff like this nice very nice this mod introduces a ton of new things to the lens between besides a lot of more spells and incantations we have a couple of new weapons with awesome ashes of War redesigned areas as well as a few new bosses exciting isn't it but before we get there we of course have to start from the beginning we've got a lot of new classes to start with which each have their unique play style and even individual starting zones I started as the baron Terra Tech and our starting area was in leernia each class has a path they can follow in order to find stronger spells or incantations better scaling has been added to almost everything in the game no longer do we only care about weight and Poise when it comes to gear as they now give stats and even specific bonuses so it is almost always better to have a complete set equipped as you can see the parent class bleeds everything death as cool as that sounds it wasn't too interesting in the beginning I went down into a tunnel and killed a giant for bistroon this is the the main gist of the mod and is how we get new stuff to throw at people they come in different tiers but that is all listed in the path notes we can also find various remnants from bosses or chests remnants are turned into talismans that are grease so finding them has become incredibly easy her three centuries is one of the few new bosses added much like the avatars they protect minor air trees the minor arteries now have a unique teleporter activate when you kill the boss attached to it with this we can travel across all archery locations that exist in the game making it very quick and pain-free to get to the area you want to as long as it's close to a oak tree all sentries and avatars also drop a Remnant that would turn into physic tears there's a few new additions here guard counter critical and mounted damage as well as stat increase to every single stat in various combinations as I previously said all classes have a new starting zone so keep an eye out for you buildings for structures this is where we get more paths to follow there's for example a small Windmill Village added to Lim grave which is the godslayer's new starting area a lot of the caves catacombs and tunnels have some new designs and new enemies to fit their theme loving these changes as they make exploring just that much more fun enough of that though let's return to our apparent path after utterly destroying Darwell together with Blythe and getting more Thorn sorcery I saw something completely new down below the path through led to the stranded graveyard and our beloved Cave of knowledge except there is no knowledge to be found down here anymore this is now a blood-soaked area with all sorts of blood-oriented enemies even the captain prelates I took this opportunity to try some new sorceries and while they looked kinda cool but we're not really all too useful bit ironic that all blood enemies bleed very easily I really hope that they would have changed the soldier of godric some blood infused type boss but instead there was another Blood Out Knight down here it wasn't even close right with him down we get a new weapon that fit our build perfectly there was also a teleporter that took us all the way to the Shaded Castle almost as if this route was made for the thorn gang Ash of war is also quite cool in this bunky stick over here we'll also find the clean Rod set which besides the attributes also gives a bonus to physical damage in the convergence it's all about the path and elemer was on our list pure skill and raw determination I managed to take him down on a first try okay you got me it looked a lot like this the first couple of times [Music] even Roundtable hold has received a couple of changes down here where would you normally get invaded by a bleed and frost High skill gamer is now a training dummy over at the impalers catacombs madness has taken over we have some frenzy casters and frenzy infused rats but the coolest thing was that burial Watchdog was changed to fit the theme as well speaking of cool changes one thing that I thought would be nice in the vanilla game was that the Leo 9 bosses would drop Legendary Weapons would wield them and they do here a very fitting touch to all in all a mediocre boss there is a bunch of new teleporters in many areas castlemorne is no exception this teleporter takes a warm hug in The Shining grounds a bit too early at this point would make sense lore wise in general there has been a big lift to all different types of dungeons here in the earth 4 cave we have another new boss in the winged Dame at this point the Thornville was really starting to come together with bleed spotting left and right an important piece of this that I have not touched on yet is the heirloom remnants they turn into some of the best talismans available put these together with a stat increase from armor sets you can quickly gain so much more power when fighting godric I noticed that he had gotten a lot beefier but unfortunately for him all we do is completely bleed he drops a couple of new things a keystone to the forge as well as his great Rune we need five of these key stones to burn the Earth tree all great runes are now good to go once received so no need to go to Divine Tower in the convergence his room gives us 10 HP and 10 more runes with any a locked up get the element set and with godric's remembrance we can buy his ax and dragon head without even using up the remembrance with the set and heirlooms we move over to liernia some new encampments are added and is a perfect place to test our new spells had such a good time exploring these new places in the open world let me know if your favorite changes here in the convergence mod raila Korea was pretty much the same Ronaldo no longer wears her strange hats or fashion is up to date the grace is now outside the library so if one would die there's no long annoying run back to the boss this is where we say goodbye to our thorny ways and look elsewhere a perfect opportunity since we can easily respect here at any given time from bleed to leave I know but trust me this is way cooler our first stop is that the roads and catacombs out of all things I didn't expect a bloodbird to be in here even though it was a little buggy and got stuck everywhere we swiftly take care of the poor snail and get some new incantations our attire was no longer appropriate for our build so it was time for a costume change everything that is done is with the path in mind part of the path part of the ship the blood Boone spray was my new favorite addition to the kit good range and leaves a bloody Trail very nice at the end of the poison cave there is another teleporter this time taking us all the way to the Beloved Lake of rot there's a lot of changes made to this area which are very appreciated for starters the resistance talismans now gives complete immunity which is too strong but we take those there's a tree here now a big bridge and an arena you definitely can't guess what's in there before we cover the entirety of the infamous hellscape there's one new cool thing added to the round table the statue lets us challenge bosses who have already defeated we don't get anything else but runes a surprise but still a good addition when I went back to fight godric again gostock was for some reason here and got very angry at the commotion they are likely to fix this but was a hilarious Discovery and yeah he died during the heat of battle it's a 10 out of 10 moment Altus hosted a few upgrades for our blood flame my favorite spell is the blood flame Outburst big damage and big AOE one can't complain in the wind Middle Village we find the god Slayer seal peaking my interest just a wee bit I also found a new legendary weapon in a tunnel and decided to give it a shot saying goodbye once and for all to our blood Shenanigans as I swapped my bill to fit the bill and decided to give one more sorcery a try the dragonkin ice stuff yeah that looks cool with our new setup I paid a visit to the French folk Heroes grave there is no horse Chariot here anymore but a lot of claymen and albenoric archers as well as some Knox monks the ash of War on this ax is so damn cool with ax in hand I returned to the Rock Lake as you might have guessed it is the dragon Kim Soldier sleeping in the middle of the Arena the only surprise here was how terrible the sorcerer really was with that failure out of the way the path forward was clear incantations it was time to become a god Slayer at this point the hardest part was finding all the gear pieces I wanted to equip Leone's Divine Tower was the first stop of our Ascension let's try these bad boys out yeah The Firestorm sucks the Black Wave is a bit better I went to the jail cave to get a feel for everything this place was now a frenzy cave and hosted a frenzy troll as its boss out of all things the god Slayer sickle was for sure the best basically being a stronger carrion slicer with damage over time effect as a reward for our troubles we picked up some privacy spells and gear these will come into play later besides some redesigned Dungeons and Caleb red main Castle has also gotten some changes we now enter through the actual gate instead of going around the Cliffside it is still very loyally protected by Redman soldiers of course the boss here is a completely new entity duck the star-color Lord now descends from the skies to protect the courtyard wielding ruins Greatsword like a complete preserve with a gravity twist thus far one of my personal favorite new bosses added in this mod the godslayer path now takes us to Caleb's Divine Tower you know the one where you fall and roll down I mean or you jump yeah trust me we totally got down without too many problems I forgot to mention this but the god Slayer seal has superb police scaling and that is why I'm using the triple rings of light as a solid range option here is where we get the better God Slayer set from the Apostle we still had a lot to prove to our Brethren so we had to take him down to steal their powers somebody must have had a laugh designing the black flame mortar as it's almost impossible to land on anything besides the ceiling the only change in the manner is to fight vs red card it is no longer a gimmick fight as we now fight him without the snake spear a better Zoom is a warm welcome as we can now actually see something his ranker of incredible [ __ ] still exists we still have one more stop and Altus for entering the capital and there is a hero's grave we find the earthbreaker seal for Beast chilling completions they've also removed all but one dual fight I'll let you guys guess which one is still present I made another quick change try some Dragon cold stuff out before entering the Capital One big change is this route stretching all the way down to the path of Road serving as a great shortcut to the snowy land there is another new legendary weapon here as well let me know if there's some that I've missed Godwin's crackblade is a twin blade with a unique moveset and Ash of War if anything I think this was the game telling me to commit to a dragon called built for now just look at that Dash attack nasty where we usually fight the spirit of Godfrey is another new boss sigur the ninth Captain makes sense as Morgan is the one that tells us to fear the knife for his cavalry cigarette smoke set is pretty much the same of a Coliseum Berserker he did also use a spell very reminiscent to the Omens in The Shining grounds he did end up spamming it quite a bit when he got low HP a good idea but I think this boss needs some work to get to that next level after defeating him I noticed something strange a Cavalry horse just standing there my best guess is that Sigrid is supposed to be riding on it during the fight but it has not been implemented yet during the fight with morgot we had a fabulous display of what Godwin's cracked blade is capable of when it is buffed with lightning the heavy attack changes to an incredibly strong combo attack poor fella did not stand a chance the path note also listed that are invisible Scarab is hiding our best dragon called set with our attire good to go I remember that I had not explored much of the Dragon Borough my first plan was to check if the rootway had been changed there was a new Jump pad here which made it way easier to get down a whole new arena is here even presenting a new Grace this is also a good time to talk about all the new various Buffs that are a big part of the convergence each class has up to three Buffs but you can mix and match as long as you have the requirements for it all classes also have a debuff that you throw on the enemy to make it weaker to your element in this case it's lightning this is where that gargoyle who normally stands outside of gorong's house has been moved back all the Buffs debuffs physic and bonuses from gear and talismans together with a ridiculously powerful implementation and this is what you get the power to kill a God in this case a gargoyle but still a display of how it looks and feels playing this mod in the late game the boss has not simply moved here to display a cool new Arena it also serves as an alternative way to furum Azula awesome right there are some very interesting changes here one of my favorites is this whole new path on the outer rim of debris takes us to another new arena with a boss that would normally fight elsewhere lanciak's the ancient dragon what is interesting about this is not the fight itself as it is just another good old fight with a dragon it is what it leads to after defeating lanciaks we can take another path this one taking us all the way to what normally is a quote-unquote hidden boss and it is one of the absolute coolest fights in the vanilla game this is of course where we lie down and go back to a time where Placida sacks ruled the skies here is where I almost felt bad the strength of this build reaches a new Peak this played a lot into the fact of his hitbox being incredibly huge so my lightning beacons dealt damage almost too many times making this one of the easier fights of my entire playthrough yeah that is just disgusting I suppose we take those with them down we get our hands on the ire of the Thunder God you know the one where he stabs the ground with a massive Fork of lightning stopping the music and devastating everything within reach yup we can use that spell sure it doesn't stop the music when we use it but definitely one of the coolest things I've ever seen in a video game as I've previously mentioned all dual fights have been removed we now fight cira blade of the Ancients instead of the godskin double Sierra fights pretty much like any of those tiger things that are all jumpy with a blade except that this guy has a red lightning and Deals a crap ton of damage it did not help that all of my damage was also lightning and unlike all recent boss fights that I've shown I could not cheese them with the lightning Beacon as he wishes moving around way too much so I had to do it the old-fashioned way defeating him would get the last of the spell runes for the Dragon Cult as well as a new weapon Albert with lightning Affinity as well as an ash of war that basically turns us to a Madman thrashing about hilarious but effective the two last spells that we got looked very flashy but were not that practical to use now for our last stop in perumazula Barranca I was really hoping that the convergence team would have given him two full HP phases but that is unfortunately not the case simply just standing below poor malikath and spamming R1 is all it takes to dispose of him and get our last Keystone his weapon and the Black Blade incaptation in honor of garonk I decided to at least try the bee stuff out on the way to a bistroon I found the stone class another new weapon with a new Ash of War protecting said Rune was myself we had an epic showdown but in the end I was the better me sorry me as for the Beast incantations The Crucible spear is a pretty cool one but compared to all the other stuff I've tried on my journey I was a bit disappointed the stone gloss beastial mauling however is strong really strong it gives us close to Unbreakable Poise whilst unloading a series of slashes with an awesome finish don't know if you noticed but this Leo 9 was also Wheeling the golden order sword and gives us the last rune for the holy sect until now the golden order incantations has basically been buffed together with rings of light but the exploding spear Elden stars and golden displacement add some Flair to what previously was a quite boring class I tried this out for a little bit as well and got the gold mask set after revealing rodorika's Secret this was by far the most FP consuming class I had yet to try but it did deliver a bunch of AOE damage combined with voice braking effects is always useful there is a couple of incantation classes that I've yet to try but I will include one more the Mad one I lost the footage of me picking up this new great sword in the yellow Annex ruins but the path took us to The Shining grounds the Brewer's revenge is the ash of War of this bad boy and it ought to be one of my favorites of all the new ones that I found speaking of new weapons I found another new legendary in the acts of rust this one's for the strength gang after successfully jumping down getting some love from the three fingers and burning hayata's eyes were blessed with a frenzy Rune hold your ads because this is a good one we all know that the vanilla Prince incantations are powerful but this takes it to the next level we have a beam a fast long range new and two things that damages what feels like the entire freaking world just look at this insanity and it even covers the landscape with frenzy flame kudos to whoever came up with this the deep root depths has received some changes as well now there's three visible light beams spread across the region on the way to the first beam there are nox monks patrolling around and as you can see we're dealing damage to things that are not even visible to us so damn cool first boss encounter is a dragonkin soldier besides the fact that it's almost one shots there's not much more to talk about defeating him this beam of light vanishes on the way to the second there's a bunch of Mystic Gardens in the way here is a perfect example of why dealing damage to almost everything in the entire world can actually be a problem after narrowly escaping the onslaught of a thousand Mr Gardens we deal with siluria and remove the second beam of light cross the roots the path to fears warm hugs is blocked by this gate clearly indicating that we must kill all bosses where the light shines this time there is a bunch of those who live in death and the boss is no different the blighted Knox ancestor is another cool addition to the pool of new bosses spraying waves of frost and lunging at us with a big club that causes massive explosions the AI for this one seemed to have issues keeping track of my possession unfortunately but just like the rest of them he suffered the cause of chabre's Revenge if it wasn't without music still going I would have missed to secure his demise and with that the path to the Lich Dragon was now open no need for cute Quest chains just get in there and fight the boss the never-ending assault of frenzied flame was too much for even 40 sacks no nothing can stand in our way for Hugs From Fear before burning their tree I wanted to see what the last rune for the god Slayers would do and the spirit color cave there is or was a style that had our prize I left my friends eat Ambitions behind to become a god Slayer once more the god Slayer stuff is a bit clunkier but has so much potential The Dusk Vault has good range and Deals a lot of damage and the side is just a gap closing monster that puts even malakith to shame the convergence is just too damn good with all these options available it got hard to choose it was to be the Dragon Cult until the very end and so I burned the Earth tree when you'd go yep Gideon gets assassinated by scada the betrayer of The Crucible Scar the fights just like a crucible knife would but with basically all The Crucible incantations at his disposal he can deflect attacks and spells with his shield I did use the ax of rust for this fight and even blocked the Titanic cleave Ash of War this is the only new boss with a new remembrance feel free to pause at the screen if you want to read through it there is unfortunately a part missing at the bottom which is a bit sad with the remembrance we get his great sword it deals 100 holy damage and has a very powerful Ash of War Godfrey is still in our way and I decided to try out the sword here even though I know he's quite resistant total damage it turned out to be a complete circus I believe I need to practice against horlu for my no hit run if I was a basketball he truly was Michael Jordan so after a while then I truly mean after a while I got my [ __ ] together and put him to his knees no Godfrey I do not disturb a crown after this showing perhaps a clown suit if you had one around here as a true gamer I put all the blame onto the sword I picked up Godfrey's ax that I have never before tried out so I can't say if it has been changed but it had a really cool Ash of War even though it is super slow luckily radagon is susceptible to having his toys broken so it worked out nothing about the last three bosses has been changed which is probably for the better as they're all quite good ones and now we also know that horalu was busy playing basketball Africa banished from the lands by America and oh yeah one thing is new we can write torrent versus the album Beast just don't Mount when he uses his waves of light that is stupid well the last clap on a celebratory Roar Unleashed Uber done if you have not yet tried out the convergence mod I strongly suggest that you do it there's so many cool changes perhaps not if you only play melee builds but even still a bunch of cool changes all around the game thank you so much for watching and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did don't forget to like And subscribe if you enjoyed this content as I have a bunch of things planned for the future keep an eye out for live streams and come and say hi if you've got the time let's hope Malena doesn't find us after we ravish the lands take care and I'll see you guys in the next one
