HellCopter posted:Yup. The Drangleic Armor is going to be the best until about halfway through the game, where it will be replaced with another set of armor that is better than everything else. Drangleic armor is heavy as hell though? At the time you get it you won't be able to wear the set without fat rolling. Unless you're investing purely into VIT or something.

Sober posted:Are you talking about the Bastille shop? I think he wants an ember or something is what he keeps going on about, he won't sell me a single thing. No, but the same finishing the area you find what he wants in gets you titanite shards in the regular ore shop. Unfortunately it's way on the other side of Harvest Valley.

So I never got an answer earlier, is there an agreed PvP level that isn't 150? Or is it way looser now?

Internet Kraken posted:So is there a better way to trade with Snuggly than dropping the stones one by one? That takes ages. Drop them one at a time, but one right after the other without leaving your inventory screen. Each will spawn its item on the ground, so when you've dropped them all, exit your screen and pick them all up. Game might start chugging if you drop a dozen or two but who cares.

What the hell quote:Note: After recent testings, Soul Memory still affects matchmaking after NG+ and thereafter. Soul Level appears to have no effect on matchmaking in either NG or NG+ and thereafter. Why would they do this? What was wrong with level ranges?

Genocyber posted:sl1 invaders!!!!!!!! Are you serious? That's the dumbest poo poo ever. Well, unless I was in a pvp covenant area I've not once been invaded. I really don't believe that this is because red eye orbs are scarce. I'm already in areas far past the point where you can join the invasion covenant, not a single invader but I can always summon phantoms. What gives?

I find it really funny how in most games it's all Legendary Sword and Spear of the Gods that or the Bow that Slayed Ten Demons but in Dark Souls and the sequel you get the blacksmith to improve your piece of hardwood and you are all set for fighting off the corrupt darkness It really is funny how I picked out that Club as a Knight my first time running Dark Souls and it owned, and continues to be completely worth it even now.

I think I need to restart because I upgraded a slashing sword that doesn't cause bleeding and it's loving garbage and even at +6 with a fuckton of str and good str scaling it does absolutely nothing to the belfry gargs. Good thing I love playing these games and making a new character gets faster every time! Someone should put a warning in the OP about slashing weapons. I'm gonna miss you, the build I always run first time through.

I only got partway through Dark Souls 1. I really liked it, but I stupidly went on a wiki rampage and kind of spoiled the entire rest of the game for me plot-wise and now have no real urge to go through and actually *play* it through to the end. Now I got Dark Souls 2 and I'm loving it, but feel a bit guilty about leaving DS1 unfinished. Is it really imperative to finish it or can I gleefully get on with the better looking/feeling/playing DS2?

There's no real reason to finish DkS1 if you don't want to except to see all the neat stuff that certain DkS2 items call back to.

The crossbow knights at the bonfire on Sinner's Rise are hilarious. I can just imagine one wily hollow figuring out that folks teleport in there and got his buddies together for a turkey shoot.

That's just cruel/Dark Souls as a ton of new players would be summoning it, unwittingly bringing a hostile phantom into their world that's out for blood.

For me, the lore and plot stuff of the Souls series is largely secondary to the gameplay, despite still enjoying the fluff. Coming from it at that angle, I would highly suggest playing through 1 at some point anyway, because it's a fantastic game and is well worth your time. Whatever theory interpretation stuff you've read will only deepen your appreciation of how it's actually presented in the game as you experience it firsthand.

I can just imagine one wily hollow figuring out that folks teleport in there and got his buddies together for a turkey shoot. This was double funny for me since I'm using Pate's Spear, which has a running attack where you charge forward and impale everything in your path. So I would sit down, get up, then skewer 3 hollows on my pike until they stopped respawning. Speaking of which, I had trouble with that places boss for the dumbest reason. I was able to dodge his attacks fine when I was focused on him, but he seems to love jumping just barely out of lock on range. So I would try to lock on to him, only for my camera to instead reorient itself since he was too far away. Which usually meant the camera flipping away to stare at a wall since he jumped behind me, and then before I could do a drat thing I'd get stabbed. rear end in a top hat.

Blunt weapons are pretty much the best, nearly all of the really hard enemies/bosses are armored and take extra damage from blunt strikes. I don't really care, because meanwhile magic still does poo poo like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R68zxKDxPJE

Blue Polizia seems to be working better now, got summoned twice between 5 minutes at the Forest of Fallen Giants when I was looking for the Firedrake stone. I did notice something that I don't think was there in the console version (or maybe I was being inattentive and it was there), but have any other guardians noticed a weird red floating thing when you get summoned to kill a Black Phantom? What is that? An indicator of some sort?

Also want a sure way to kill them? Light the black pit on fire. They don't react to being on fire if you shoot the black puddle with a firearrow. Just shoot it at the corner of the black puddle pit
