Yes, it does work that way. I hope the rewards scale as you go, and a common guard isn't still dropping 70 runes when I am level 100.
If Frank happens to pop in here, I wondered about your build. Thanks for posting it.
I'm wondering why you leveled dex and strength together? Was this to meet requirements for a certain weapon, or to allow you to be effective with different types of weapons, or why did you go this route? Do the dex and strength stack, synergize, or dovetail, to give more damage?
I essentially used a "tank" build in Elden Ring so strength will be key there but yes, there were several weapons that I used that scaled damage with higher dexterity and strength,. The katanas especially synergize very well with high dexterity and strength.
Oh, and the rune rewards most definitely go up when you defeat stronger foes. The higher the risk for death, the higher the reward.
