FromSoftware\u2019s expansions are notoriously difficult from Bloodborne\u2019s The Old Hunters to Dark Souls 3\u2019s Ringed City DLC. Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree is no exception with its suite of incredibly tough new bosses. Complaints about this challenge have actually caused Shadow of the Erdtree to drop to a mixed rating on Steam. Discourse on the expansion\u2019s difficulty has seen major streamers like Kai Cenat telling players to \u201cput their big boy pants on\u201d. If you don\u2019t feel like wearing pants or you just want a merciful reprieve from the struggle, one of the DLC\u2019s new Sorceries could be just what you\u2019re looking for. The Impenetrable Thorns Sorcery makes light work of even the toughest foes in Shadow of the Erdtree. A clip shared on X by streamer Scott Jund shows Impenetrable Thorns melting through boss health bars. What makes it even more impressive is that in the various fights, he appears to be a summoned assistant meaning that these enemies have a significantly increased health pool. The Sorcery itself actually requires Faith to use rather than Intelligence with a minimum of 24 in the stat needed to cast it. Interestingly, its damage and Bleed build-up scales with the Arcane stat so some respeccing will likely be needed to bring a build together. Using a Staff that scales with Arcane like the Albanauric\u2019s Staff as a catalyst for Impenetrable Thorns will bolster its effectiveness. The Godfrey Icon Talisman will also see an increase in the spell\u2019s power if you charge it. Impenetrable Thorns can be found in the Shadow Keep Legacy Dungeon. After you pull the lever in the Storehouse and climb the suspended statue, you can walk slowly off the ledge immediately outside and find the Sorcery there. We recommend resting at the Site of Grace in front of Messmer, the Impaler\u2019s boss room first so you don\u2019t have to make the journey twice.
