The beast claws are the best weapon, by the way. I took down the final boss and only had to use 1 blood vial with it.Scrub-Niggurath posted:Its a shame that the coolest weapon you get comes right as you go into NG+ You can get an alternate version in one of the ailing loran chalice dungeons.

I tried to beat logarius like 5 times and failed each time before leaving to watch hockey. It's probably the only boss in the game I have troubles with I suppose. Today I'm going to play until I beat him because gently caress him!!! Stupid blood wizard!

He feels way harder this time because I don't remember dying in one hit to every single attack of his

Today I'm going to play until I beat him because gently caress him!!! Stupid blood wizard! i found him pretty hard and died 12 times or something (haven't died more than twice on any other boss). the reason i found him hard was that he's a bit different to other bosses, at least early on. in his first form you shouldn't try to time his attacks at all, just dodge continually behind him while hitting him until he starts meleeing and then go for a parry before backing off and starting it up again. the second form people on the internet said was hard but i thought he was fairly easy to time with parries

I beat Logarius on my first try so I guess I got lucky, but I was also pretty over leveled too.

I tried a few times last night and stopped and did the shadow of yharnam fight instead. I can't get the wheel if I kill rom before logarius, right?

i played a little bit of this at a friends a couple days ago . do the later enemies have some kind of poise? it felt like i could just mash stuff down. the cleric beast was great fun though.

later enemies have certain attack animations with poise, yeah. bigger dudes will be pushed around for a hit or two before you have to back up as they wind up their next hit. Idk if it's dependent on the size of your weapon though.

oh yeah, the locational damage stuff on big dudes is super neat, makes fighting large humanoids more interesting because you take out their knees in most cases if you don't lock on and aim swings properly

good to hear about the poise. i play unlocked a lot. Im MLG lol :P

I.N.R.I posted:good to hear about the poise. i play unlocked a lot. Im MLG lol :P that's harder to do in this game because locking on changes your roll to a dodge, which you may have seen. dodging is way more mobile than rolling and is definitely necessary in lots of fights. so rolling is even more MLG now

I always try to lock on, though I admit playing without it is really useful for fighting some bosses and multiple enemies. There's only 3 bosses I beat on my first try, Amygdala, Blood Letting Beast, and Moon Presence. Pretty drat satisfying.

zen death robot posted:Later enemies are harder but there is also a bug where if the game has been left on with the ps4 "rest mode" then the bosses AI get dumb as hell I tried that in the defiled chalice dungeons and Amygdala didn't get any dumber for me. In fact I'd say she got harder cause then she started doing attacks that more or less made it a lot harder to hit her head. Results may vary, and they're supposedly fixing that in 1.03 (alongside improving load times). Anyway, bosses that I beat first try: Vicar Amelia One Reborn Darkbeast Paarl Martyr Logarius Celestial Emissary Mergo's Wet Nurse Both final bosses (I beat the first one and only needed 1 blood vial - beast claws bitch) And a variety of chalice bosses

My apologies I actually thought about it and did beat shadow of yharnam first try, but I was pretty over leveled i think, and those guys are one of the easier bosses.

It's weird because I struggled like crazy against the Shadows of Yharnam, but that's probably cause I tried to get everyone's health down equally instead of focusing on one of them at a time. Rom gave me tons of issues, and it wasn't until I got a goon who knew what he was doing to help me. Ironically I met Rom in the chalice dungeons later on, and he was super easy once I got my equipment set the way I needed it to be. I still can't beat Ebrietas in the chalice dungeons.

Logarius is cool because he could easily be a final boss fight in a different game. I think I was expecting something like him when I first reached Gwyn in DkS e: between the castle rooftop backdrop and the scythe and the flying skull/blade magic, he's basically a Death fight from Castlevania Zodar fucked around with this message at 22:11 on Apr 17, 2015 |
