A fun thing that happens if you use a bunch of bonfire ascetics in Majula to unlock merchant gear: More than one skeleton awaits in the basement. :v:

Is there any editor that simplifies, or guide that teaches the steps to, reduce stats, level and soul memory? Did a bunch of testing, and I want to go back to keep doing co-op. :v: I just looked for my SM value, and seven values popped up.

I think most scrips will be updated soon but here is a 100% failsafe way:
- Back up saves
- Open cheatengine, attach Ds2 process
- New scan for SM value
- Kill something or consume a soul item
- Next scan for new SM value
- Repeat above 2 if you feel like it
- Change all those numbers
- Quit to main menu, close Cheatengine
You should be done

Figured out the blue murakumo's special property: Like fire weapons and items, if you hit an exploding thing with it, the thing will explode. I found this out TOTALLY ON PURPOSE with some explosive barrels that I DEFINITELY MEANT TO HIT.

HEY! FASHION SOULS QUESTIONS AHEAD ONLY READ ONLY IF YOUR FASHIONABLE :siren:

1. Are there any armors that look like insolent armor that aren't? By far the coolest in the game I've found.

2. Cool light gauntlets that look like heavy armor?

3. Cool masks?






I rather like my current look. It would be nice if the Insolent Armor wasn't so patchy though :(

Shadow Mask, Insolent Armor, Steel Gauntlets, Steel Leggings.

The Steel set is heavy armor, but considering how light the Shadow Mask and Insolent chestpiece are, it works out okay.

This isn't a weapon quality inherent to the new Murakumo. If you hit a barrel and it hits the ground or wall and sparks fly out, it sets barrels off. The Murakumo always hits the ground.

Another exploding barrels question. What is it that determines if dodge rolling through an exploding barrel them makes them explode or harmlessly shatter? Off in Bastile, those big ol 3 stacked ones on tables that the Royal guards love to blow up with their swords (I lost my first white soapstone summon that way :smith: No, don't go!) you can roll through. Most ones on the ground all by themselves you can roll through. But there was this lone barrel off in a corner on an end table or something, rolling through THAT? Explosion.

EDIT: the one on a table that blew up from rolling is in the corner of that room with all the wine kegs, and the pointless door that only opens to a skeleton in the wall. I'd wonder if my roll destroyed the table, causing it to hit the ground and kaboom. But considering I can always roll safely through the tables that have THREE powder kegs stacked on them...

God damnit bandai namco have been letting certain people have early access to the DLC aren't they? That's why I thought it was out today. What a bummer.

Do you use durante's GeDoSaTo program at all? It has a bloom setting that makes stuff shining in the sun look way cooler.

Is there still a voucher code floating around for GMG for the season pass? I've tried searching for one but all the ones I find have expired.

I just checked this myself, since the 20% off code doesn't always work. It does on this though, so you can get the season pass for $20. I probably should have done that.

Yep! Though the Lightning Spears actually do slightly more damage now, so if you have plenty of herbs then the reduced casts aren't too huge of a deal, and you should probably investigate using the Thorned Greatsword from now on if you want to stick with the weapon class.

Havel's is still good, just not as good.

From a bit ago, but the spears don't really do more damage in practice. Oh, sure, there are a few enemies you will annihilate but it seems they changed lightning resistances on enemies. You'll spend two of your three casts killing one enemy more often than not. It takes a shitload of stats and the best lightning chime to make them even worth the effort but doing 1600 damage to the Alonne Knights with Sunlight Spear is pretty fun. The problem is that you do like half that to most enemies and only have two casts anyway.

Dunno what your region is, but the PSN store does not update until pretty late in the day for NA. It doesn't seem to have a set time like Steam does.

edit: the season pass should be up already though, try looking for that

In case that code expires or if anyone from europe still wants to pick it up: Nuuvem has the season pass for R$44,99 (US$20 & €15).

(I assume using vpns to buy games in cheaper regions is still one of the few things steam actually bans accounts for.)

Nuuvem is legit. If you are having issues ask a goon gifter from the Steam thread for help. I would not risk using a VPN
