Elden Ring continues to provide improvement update to improve the experience for players. The latest 1.07 update includes balancing changes that should make the gameplay more consistent. Spells, talents, incantations, and weaponry have all undergone significant revisions in order to provide more tactical flexibility throughout the game.
For additional features, Elden Ring patch 1.07 has added separate damage scaling for PvP. This feature allows players to scale the damage done by their weapons, skills, spells, and incantations independently when competing against other players. It is possible that in the future, this functionality will be utilized to rebalance the invading/PvP mode’s weapons, arts, spells, and incantations. Any balancing changes made inside this mode will not have any effect on the other game modes, including single-player and cooperative. The PvP Exclusive balance adjustments made are as follows:
PVP Adjustment
- Increased stamina attack power in PvP for all attacks against guarded foes, except for long-ranged weapons.
- Improved poise damage in PvP for every weapon’s normal attack, except for Skills and long-ranged weapons.
