Everyone is excited about the upcoming expansion to Elden Ring, Shadow of the Erdtree. The buzz has been incredible, as there is just a week left for the release. However, 62% of the players haven’t defeated Mohg yet, so they won’t be able to play the new content.

The DLC is locked behind Mohg, so it is necessary to beat him to access Shadow of the Erdtree. Mohg, Lord of Blood, is arguably one of the hardest bosses in the game, and many players are having a hard time dealing with him.

However, the community has come up with a creative solution.

Why it matters: While gaming communities are often known to be toxic, various examples illustrate how players help each other. This is another one of those examples.

Veteran Elden Ring players have come together to help new players beat Mohg so they can enjoy the goodness of the DLC.

Twitter and Reddit are full of posts where players are helping newcomers on this particular boss. Now, many might underestimate him, but he is not an easy boss to deal with. He is an endgame foe who drops the same amount of runes Malenia does.

That is why players are banding together to overcome this obstacle. One player mentioned that he helped 92 others beat Mohg. However, this won’t help players who are struggling with solo playthroughs.

That is mainly because Mohg is a necessary skill check before the DLC. This means that fighting him prepares you for the DLC, as there are going to be harder bosses. You are sure to encounter many bosses who are harder than him in the DLC.

Many of those who have played the upcoming expansion are claiming Divine Beast The Dancing Lion is extremely hard, and he is giving many people a skill check.

Nonetheless, it’s great to see the FromSoftware community coming together.

For a community that has been known to promote skill use, the players never shy away from helping each other. Even Hidetaka Miyazaki said that using guides is perfectly acceptable for FromSoftware games.

If you’re one of the many players who have yet to beat this boss, consider summoning fellow tarnished ahead of Shadow of the Erdtree.
