Dreggon posted:Ancient Dragon is easy, stay between the two inner toes on each of his back legs and he spends the entire fight trying to stomp you. Except it can still breath fire on you from under it and it's just as much an instant kill if it hits you. Easier to dodge though.

Long as hell walk full of enemies, massive health bar, bullshit instant kill, and not even fun to fight. I know you can cheese him with Gower's but gently caress it, that piece of poo poo isn't even worth killing.

You need really awkward positioning to get the dragon doing this .  But if you're giving the dragon a manicure it basically baits it into having 3 attacks: left stomp, right stomp, and maybe the rain of fire after like 8 stomps.

quote:I think part of what's going on is that most of the people playing Dark Souls 2 are DS1 veterans. When Queelag exploded, I'd never seen something like that before. When O&S completely overwhelmed me, I was completely unprepared. When the Four Kings bumrushed me and that music and the abyss and which way is up and that's a huge swor- YOU DIED. Well... No, I don't think that's quite it. The game is just flawed in numerous ways. Level design, enemy design, BOSS design, matchmaking mechanics, combat mechanics (such as a heavily armored guy getting stunlocked by tiny babby knives). Everything was designed with just... so much care in Dark Souls 1; especially in the early portions of the game.

I just fought a very spooky grim reaper named Death who set himself on fire and punched me to death with his fists. Being set on fire didn't seem to do anything to him or me though.

Didn't really seem to do anything at all to mine, at least within greatsword range. Also, greatswords are fun to use. I'm currently bellbroing with the drangleic sword and I'm doing about as well as I did with sorcery. Most people aren't good at pvp.

He was terrible, and once I Estused (because he did it first), he turned on infinite health. I have a dim view of that spell, now.

I just beat someone to death with a greatshield I can barely hold.  e: RIP "PVP IS BAD". You shouldn't have been in the belfries buddy. I'm so glad I'm seeing people to invade here again in a new game. Throwing the white ring on makes this even sillier too. A giant green ogre named Shrek just finished the guy I tricked off I'm crying. RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 06:45 on May 11, 2014 |

Vanderdeath posted:What mask is that? That looks phenomenal. It's the Shadow Mask, it drops off Flexile Sentry's NG+ helpers. They technically respawn so you can kill them, hope it drops, and if it doesn't, save/quit out and try again. Do this instead of burning an ascetic over and over because NMW on intensity 7 doesn't really play around!

This is the most ridiculous lag example yet. I leap attack the dude, miss. We roll around, he goes into a lagbackstab, and in the middle of the animation he suddenly takes a shitload of damage from the leap attack that missed like 10 seconds ago and dies. In a different fight, my character stopped in mid air, did a 90 degree turn and smashed into the phantom that rolled forward killing him.

That's a solid question and I don't think anyone has the answer. Probably treats it as death.

I wish I used greatswords on my first game. Sorceries are fun, but I'm cleaning up even better with just this un-upgraded drangleic sword. It's way more fun than the sword/morningstar I was using for backup as a battlemage!Mzbundifund posted:Can I use the Dark Sign to warp back to the bonfire without ruining a no-death run? You lose all your souls and don't get the chance to recover them, so if anything I'd think it's a superdeath.

its always about damage. A barely enough stats to hold it 10+ mace kills turtle knights in two hits. Essentially, they are killed so fast they never get to swing.

Using the Dark Sign does not increase your death counter when used. It seems to just be a fancy homeward bone that eats all your souls.
