It is the most wizarding friendly game FromSoftware has made.

Through their other games the pattern was for wizards: the level getting to the boss was tough managing your spell uses, but then the boss was easy if you reserved enough.

In Elden Ring there are less ‘levels’ and almost none of the classic ‘runback’ to a boss if you die. So you almost always can full power a boss.

Which feels easier in comparison. Though the Elden Ring bosses were designed around that more.

Imminent DLC will shake things up too.
