Vanilla Elden Ring felt pretty good in that regard (granted it’s been a while since I played it). As I recall between weapons, spells, Ashes of War and Spirit Ashes you had a lot of tool choices and were free to sort of make the game as difficult or easy for yourself as you liked.
Sounds like they lost that aspect in the DLC, which is a shame.

There’s difficulty, then there’s balancing issue. We expect difficulty, but not invalidating certain builds entirely.
