Outside introducing an entirely new map, additions to the in-game lore and story, and several new white-knuckle boss fights, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree makes some major shake-ups to the title's combat sandbox. FromSoftware was careful not to completely throw out the existing meta for Elden Ring with Shadow of the Erdtree, instead focusing on making meaningful additions rather than subtracting the effectiveness of certain items or builds. One of the more exciting additions that Shadow of the Erdtree introduces are the new Perfume Bottle items, which transform a consumable from the base game into a non-FP-consuming magic item with massive power potential.
