The new armor doesn't look that impressive... when's Dark Arisen DLC getting released?

IIRC spring right?

Aw lawd, I keep forgetting about Mercedes' armour.

This gear isn't technically new. I wonder if there's more to be obtained that just hasn't been revealed? These may well be the clear rewards for completing Hard and Speed-Run Mode but who's to say we won't get some of the rarer loot from the standard difficulty end-game as we cut our way through the world on a new difficulty setting?

The end item rewards might not seem so great themselves, but there could be better loot that's rarer in the ordinary game to be had along the journey. Wouldn't really make sense to scale the difficulty up and not the rewards with it.

Looking forward to this, I already have a new appearance for my Arisen planned out for the Time Attack mode and I'm definitely looking forward to blazing through the game at a hellish pace. I already ran a speed-run type playthrough on my second run of the game but didn't keep track of just how quickly I cleared it. Without completing any sidequests and pre-levelled above 100, the game doesn't really ever have a chance to slow you down.

This could get interesting and might be enough of a reason for me to get back into Dragon's Dogma for a little while. Can't wait for the expansion, but this'll do for now I suppose. Can't argue with free content, no matter how trivial it may seem to some.

Some ppl r never satisfied. They just wane something more.

The stats for the DF forest set :

I can't DF the other one gotten from speedrun because female avatars can't equip it.

Also, I didn't begin hard mode yet, so I don't have the 2 other items.

you get that from hard mode completion right?^
