I wish I had a pic, but yesterday I died fighting ng+++ Rotten when he had literally no red left on his bar. He must have had like 0.5 hp left. :saddowns:

You can actually kill some bosses and die at the same time, and it will end up not counting (ex. Darklurker, I also had Pursuer flip out and smack me while his dying animation was playing once).

That's for all bosses, f you die you get nothing. It also means if you tie with a Heide Knight or some other enemy with a one time drop you're screwed unless you use an ascetic. I bet it'd be really annoying to double KO on a red phantom NPC and have it drop something. Oh well, I didn't want that incredibly rare drop anyway.

I've lost rotten fights to burning to death at the same time as killing him. Luckily rotten is a pretty easy boss. I also lost my last freyja fight due to the little spiders, and I'm pretty sure I rolled off the edge as I killed nashandra the first time through.

Oh my god it's so hard to go back to DS1 on the 360. Even setting aside the gameplay changes and weapon leveling, the framerate, UI and graphics are so much worse in comparison! I still like the kick more than guard break though.

Here is a script to do the martial arts moveset if anyone is interested. You need to either: have no weapons and wear vanquishers seal OR use caestus. There are single-hand moves and powerstance moves. Some people report the script does not work for them but I do not know of any solutions other than to make sure you are equipped (or unequipped) properly.

http://a.pomf.se/ngzvkl.CT

Examples of the moveset:
http://a.pomf.se/rchvrs.webm
http://a.pomf.se/rskjir.webm

It has been posted here before, but not the script to do it. It is responsive to your STR/DEX just like the barehand moveset.

This is courtesy of 4chan/Eur0pa&Querns.
The CE people have also been doing some crazy stuff with magic but I think that's been posted here already.

You're supposed to be parrying that late? It looks like the attack has already finished to me!
The active parry frames on the GS/GH parry are really deep into the animation. I don't think any of the other parries can compare in how long it takes to get the parry out. That's why it's pretty impressive that he can land those so consistently when he's accounting for how long the parry takes to come out and being able to predict when the other players are going to attack while accounting for lag (versus reacting with a parry, like with the monastery scimitar)

Man, my Roaring Halberd at +5 and Raw absolutely murders bosses (all my stats are 20, so Dark infusions, etc, actually drop the overall damage quite drastically...) but holy poo poo it's aggravating in regular fights. Unless I've got an entire football field to myself, the swing of the drat thing will end up locking me into the 'deflected' animation and get me killed.

This video goes over a lot of weapon including greatswords and the like and you have to basically be at the end of the parry animation with some of the bigger sticks to parry successfully.

I'm more concerned about the guys who use summon sign names over the character limit to crash people who look at them.

If I had access to a computer that could run the game I'd see about making an immunity script to that and the +14 weapon stuff that can be constantly run. That kind of thing is just not necessary.

This whole situation just makes me shake my head since Dark Souls 1 had the basic sanity checking that stopped this stuff cold. To think you can literally crash someone out by having too long a name. Unbelievable.

Yeah. Open DS2, open that script, hook it into DS2, click the checkbox (wearing two caesti) and firing away. Are you using an older version of CE? It doesn't make sense to me for it to just not work for someone :confused:

They're obnoxious as poo poo but pretty slow to react if you just charge them. Roll under, or just sprint to the side of, their projectiles and you can wail on them. Taking it slow will get you killed more often than not.

Also, summon the NPC in the first hut you come to. She'll wreck poo poo and distract the casters for you.

Yeah I'm working my rolling game hard against these casters, but the problem is near the fog wall when there's a few of them with 3 melee dudes that react and rush in. Even with a +Magic Def ring and gear that has high Magic Def getting hit once just takes such a huge chunk of my health out. I know it's doable but, gently caress, it's tough. I'm taking a break and seeing if I can get any further into the DLC dungeon yet :v:

Yeah, that particular section sucks rear end. I think you can kill the caster on the left without pulling anything. If you're careful, you oughta be able to get the one on the right with a bow or something. At that point it's just dealing with the two melee assholes, which is a huge pain, but they do leash if you want to try and split them up a bit. Really, I'd just summon up the NPC and let her do some tanking for you. She helps a great deal.

heh that isn't even the boss fogwall.

That is probably the most obnoxious part of Amana though, whiff your ranged attack against the hammer dudes and they'll flatten you. Which approach to take dealing with them all depends on your build.

The two main invasion covenants are almost impossible to max thanks to insane requirements, and invasion items are extremely difficult to get.
