Then they host hour stepped on, so no loss, but really? It's happened to me on a couple more bosses as well. Some boss attacks will pierce the fog door; the rude bosses were Snake lady in Earthen Peak and the Smelter Demon. Quite rude. Just don't stand right up next to the door on those two if you're playing co-op with the host.

I'm not sure how it would really work, though. Deep Souls obviously People hate water levels in video games because they usually have awful gimmicks with poo poo controls, but I love ocean aesthetics so seeing an area based more around that would be pretty sweet. I loved the parts in this game where you had to move through a flooded corridor with monsters lurking just beneath the surface of the water. A level that featured a lot of that could be annoying, but From is pretty good when it comes to unique level ideas so I bet they could pull it off. Or it would be like the Blighttown Swamp. keyframe posted:Some pubbie host I was sunbroing managed to die to Coveteous Demon within like 10 seconds. There should be an award for that. Best Covetous Demon deaths are when someone gets hit by his roll, survives, and then keep standing right next to him without healing so he just flops over and kills them. He gives you like 5 seconds to get away and heal but you just gotta keep punching fatty. Internet Kraken fucked around with this message at 02:56 on May 5, 2014 |

RBA Starblade posted:I've been watching some console pvp streams, and I'm wondering if maybe the problem I've been having with the bellkeepers drying up after sm 800k or so being because there just aren't as many people on PC. I mean soapstone and dragon eye duels are fine and all but several covenants are worthless almost because of it. If it makes you feel any better on xbox I'd say that's about where things start dropping off a lot and after a million on NG there's pretty much nothing. I think a lot of the streamers you're watching are probably in NG+. But yeah you're probably right that like the rat covenant has a lifespan of about 3 weeks after release and then the only reason to go there if you're not a rat is to try to get an easy lockstone (and if you are a rat, hope there are a ton of people looking for easy lockstones. Probably not).

Either there's something wrong with how the game subtracts souls from Great Resonant Soul, or soul recollection is bugged. I'm not picking up the right amount after using it and dying.Tokyo Sex Whale posted:If it makes you feel any better on xbox I'd say that's about where things start dropping off a lot and after a million on NG there's pretty much nothing.

Damp Souls. I beat the Covetous Demon as my lovely caster. That special attack nearly hosed me over while I fumbled around in my menus, but otherwise how do you even lose to that? I had the hp reducing ring on and barely have any health normally.

Dual fists is actually legit and really fun. My sunbro is running around with a lightning fist and a dark fist because he's also investing in faith, and he's the best sun bro. Stunlock all the enemies with your fists of justice, heal everyone with your miracles, flex victoriously with force.

Bleu posted:Memory editor. Don't like your current souls? Set them to 999999. Hit points? 999999. Equip load? 999999. Or whatever. Would that explain this? I was bellbroing with ANGRY OLD MAN and this guy completely ignored me and rang the bell with two dwarves on him. I unloaded on him and did no damage. He was running around with a clearly broken greatsword (I have a screenshot of him hitting a dwarf for 12 damage). I finally just started pointing at the fog door, and when he went in I stunlocked him with dual caestus. Eventually another bellbro showed up - in the screenshot all three of us landed hits. His hit bar never budged. You can see the blood on the dwarf's axe from the follow through on the blow that knocked him down. After over a minute of pounding on him his hit point bar suddenly vanished and I got TARGET DESTROYED. So either he turned off the cheat because he was tired of being stunlocked, or we did enough damgage in one shot to bypass it?

The shrine of anime is a very weak part of the game. Could've had you fighting powerful sorcerers and unique guardian-like enemies, instead you get assholes who just snipe you with soul arrows 24/7 and lurkers that can't possibly surprise you after the first time, combined with a "huh huh dont fall!" gimmick.

Out of the last 20 minutes I got summoned twice. Here's what happended the rest of the time; -Summoned repeatedly by people farming red phantoms -Invaded by arbiter spirits because you can be invaded in cleared areas, inexplicably So its another cool idea ruined by garbage implementation. No wonder I never saw any humans in my fight. Bobnumerotres posted:The shrine of anime is a very weak part of the game.

I think after NG+ every player should just be in the same pool for invasions and such. I mean who the gently caress cares at that point? You beat the game and you're in SL 150+ with maxed out gear, a couple of stat points aren't going to make any gaps between you and others that can't be bridged with skill.

Place your red soapstone summon sign in the hallway leading up to the boss and he may summon you! But that won't happen. Instead you'll be summoned by people camping the area for kills. Either spirit invading you or people summoning your red soapstone sign. Its idiotic.
