Elden Ring sicko takes the limiters off NG+ scaling, cranks Shadow of the Erdtree to NG+ 1,000 and still no-hits a 500,000-HP Messmer

Elden Ring DLC Messmer.

One Elden Ring player has slain Messmer at New Game+ level 1,000, without using Scadutree Blessings or any status effects, and it only took them roughly seven and a half hours. 

The frankly ludicrous streamer is skumnut, and they started throwing hands against Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree's Messmer earlier this week. The thing is, they've managed to unlock NG+ scaling somehow, effectively increasing Messmer's overall level scaling by 1,000 times over the base game. NG+ difficulties don't scale linearly, but when you set the game to NG+ 1,000, some seriously strong enemies show up. Who knew.
