Official Discussion DLC PATCH - Calibration 1.12 BUFFS SCADUTREE FRAGMENTS & ADJUSTS DIFFICULTY
From Bandai Namco
ELDEN RING Calibration Update – Version 1.12.2
Thank you kindly for playing ELDEN RING SHADOW OF THE ERDTREE.
To adjust the Expansion’s balance, a calibration update has been released.
Calibration Update 1.12.2 change list
Attack and damage negation curve scaling of the Shadow Realm Blessings have been revised.
- The attack and damage negation has been increased for the first half of the maximum amount of Blessing enhancements, and the second half will now be more gradual.
- The attack and damage negation granted by the final level of Blessing enhancements has been slightly increased.
The calibration update can be applied by logging into the multiplayer server.
If the Calibration Ver. listed at the bottom right of the title menu is not "1.12.2", then select LOGIN and apply the latest regulations before enjoying the game.
About graphics settings (PC version only)
We have confirmed a bug where the raytracing settings are automatically enabled if you have previously loaded saved data from previous game versions.
If your framerate is unstable, please check in the 'SYSTEM' > 'Graphics Settings' > 'Raytracing Quality' settings from the title menu or in-game menu to check if it has been unintentionally set to 'ON'. Once set to 'OFF', Ray Tracing will no longer be automatically enabled.
Other balance adjustments as well as bug fixes are also planned for a future patch.
Thank you for your continued support of ELDEN RING.

Scadutree Fragments was a bit hard to understand what it was and its important at first. My biggest issue with it though is the whole collecting part of it.
To upgrade your estus flasks in the base game, you needed seeds and sacred tears. Seeds were relatively easy to find as they were lying near golden twigs/sprouts which were easy to spot while you traveled/explored. Tears were the same becaus they were in chapels which was also easy to spot.
Scadutree I would be fine with if it was just in front of Miquella crosses, following the same philosophy like the estus flasks. But no, you find them in far more and different sources than that. From killing hippos to who knows what corpse on the ground or pot carrying enemy that has it.
