Elden Ring 1.04 update buffs Colossal Swords and tweaks plenty of Sorcery/Incantations

Good news Tarnished!

Elden Ring is the latest souls-like title by From Software and has received its 1.04 update, bringing buffs and tweaks to the Colossal Swords as well as Sorcery/Incantations. With this update, both of these playstyles should feel better and more satisfying.

In addition to the buffs and tweaks to Colossal Swords and Sorcery/Incantations, a new camera option, bug fixes, and new event phases for Patches were added. The patch notes for this update can be found on Bandai Namco's Elden Ring site where you can read all the changes.

Most of the changes were to benefit the Colossal Swords and Sorcery/Incantations. These include increased attack speed, decreased casting time, increased damage, and more. So if you were thinking of using these play styles, now is a great time to give them a try.

After updating your game, you will need to perform some in-game actions to trigger the changes for existing characters—new characters don't need to do this. Some of these are leveling up, activating Godrick's Great Rune, or re-equipping any equipment which alters your stats.
