That's not so bad then. Thinking about it though, since my faith is relatively low (40 to 24), I may just swap the lightning spear out for the soul spear, and once I get attunement higher, put in a healing miracle to round things out, and save my dark chime for great resonant soul exclusively. e: What's that armor Captain Onion's wearing?

Kimmalah posted:Well it's also been out long enough that a lot of people are probably either respeccing or or starting new characters. I don't know why that seems so weird? It's actually because magic is extremely powerful in this game. When you're a hexer, you have access to three types of magical damage. Great Resonant Soul alone will rip off over 1200 HP in one go no sweat. They resist Dark? No problem, you can also cast Wrath of God. Well, unless they have Great Magic Barrier, but not everyone does.

So what's a good endgame-ish sword for a 40Str/20Dex type guy? Been running a claymore for forever, and while it's still good, I think I'm due for an upgrade. And yes, it needs to be a sword. I know I can use the great club and other great hammers, but swords are cooler.

Well, there's also the problem of lag. This thread alone is abound with stories of hits registering several seconds after the animation, et cetera et cetera. Projectiles are easily the worst culprits of that.

Pursuer's Greatsword is one of the best boss weapons out of the box and does really stupid damage when you upgrade it. Curved Dragon Greatsword is really good too. both require 30 str and 18 dex I believe.

That video is amazing. It doesn't have quite the same rhythm as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8I6fmvp37TU but it's still great. I loved him dancing through the shrine of amana without getting hit.

Dragonrider's bow is also an extremely solid bow at the point of the game you can get it, nothing even comes close except maybe a heavily upgraded sea bow, and they aren't that common. I just wish the old dragonrider's spear was better, it's such a cool weapon

All bows need some dex, 12 is the lowest and 25 is the highest. Dragonrider's is not good for enchanting to lightning since it already does magic. The Sea bow might be something to have a look at, or maybe the composite bow.

Just finished the game, and all I gotta say is...what the gently caress? I like how every game in the boss after the smelter demon has been 1-shot 1-kill chump (all solo, no summons, not even npcs). I went through multiple zones without dying a single time. This game is easy as gently caress compared to Dark Souls 1. I spent hours at a time as a human because...I just wasn't dying. Maybe one stupid death by rolling off a cliff or a 1 hit KO move (ogres...), but beyond that, a total cakewalk.

What is with people invading in King's Passage with invisible weapons? Two times in a row, one with Washing Pole and one with Moonlight Greatsword. Sheesh. I didn't think a no bonfire run would be that simple. As an aside, grinding for lewellyn Armor is driving me mad. I have three copies of the chest.

No Bonfire run is turning out pretty straightforward so far, although doing it NG+ after a bunch of invasions with the entire funpolice chasing me was a mistake.

Box wine posted:Did you have 2 summons and they danced around this one part of the wall while you did this? No, did it solo. Didn't take that long as I could get 2 or 3 shots for some ok damage every pass. This time I hosed up and forgot that the necromancers don't respawn after the boss fight. I was only over there in hopes of a lizard staff

Out of curiosity, did you play Dark Souls 1 on PC? GFWL had loads of downtime, and connections would fail just as often as they would succeed. At least with DS2 you can consistently connect to other people's games when the servers are up.

Keep in mind that the game's been out a week. As the population drops wait times and connection issues are going to rise.

^Why could connection issues rise? Wait times sure, but with less players straining the serves, I would think there would be less connection issues, not more.Cowcaster posted:What armor is that swank chestpiece? That's Throne Defender's Armor, you can buy it from the armor merchant in Majula after you've defeated him. Azzents posted:Got disconnected from online play due to Steam servers going down for like the fourth time today. The thread title should be 'Dark Souls II: Are we really better off without GFWL?" You never played much DS1 PC, did you? GFWL was awful. Down all the time, and when it was up it would fail to connect you 99% of the time. I'd often sift through a whole room of player signs and MAYBE be lucky for one to actually not fail. The netcode was also even worse, believe it or not. So uh... yes. We most certainly are better off without GFWL.
