Madness, as a status effect, is also a little more deadly now, taking more time to recover from its build up, though when you're finally affiliated the animation will be shorter. From shortening animation times on status effects to buffing The Grafted Blade Greatsword, there is a lot to dig into. This latest update, patch 1.04, does a lot of that work, rebalancing and reworking many spells, incantations, weapons and more so the game plays as intended.

New Elden Ring Update Weakens Popular Malenia Strategy (Game Rant)

While the latest Elden Ring buffed a lot of weapons and spells, one key component of a popular Malenia cheese strategy takes a hit. malenia swarm flies nerf.

For those at this point in this Journey, it should remain a test of their ability, and this nerf helps just that. However, while the exact reaction and impact remains to be seen, this nerf perhaps has a silver lining. Solo players could use River of Blood and Swarm of Flies to beat Malenia much easier than other ways.

'Elden Ring's latest update brings huge magic buffs and more ... (Inverse)

The latest 'Elden Ring' 1.04 patch overhauls a lot of the game's weaker weapons and spells.

Once again, most of the changes were made to Weapon Skills that were previously underused, so you’ll have far more options at your disposal. While many Spells have become more powerful as part of the 1.04 patch, Swarm of Flies is one of the few that has received a nerf—and thankfully so, because it was grossly overpowered. Along with Spells, a slew of Weapon Skills have been improved. These are spells like Briars of Punishment—which received decreased recovery time and increased blood loss buildup—along with a slew of other improvements to the likes of Burn, O Flame!, Crystal Barrage, Rock Blaster, and dozens more. Many of the buffed spells now have faster cast speed or decreased recovery time, making them much more effective. FromSoftware has dropped a massive Elden Ring update, featuring countless weapon changes, Spell alterations, and bug fixes to the wildly popular RPG. This update, patch 1.04, is a major one, bringing many of the game’s underappreciated armaments, Sorceries, and Skills to the limelight.

So it appears that the illusory, but destructible, walls were just a clever way for the developers to hide an unwanted room and not a doorway to bigger secrets. At first, players weren’t sure if developers were using it to hide secrets, or if it was just a bug. YouTuber Zullie the Witch test drove the patch on Tuesday, and found that the over-powered Rotten Stray dogs weren’t as tough as prior incarnations.
