sector_corrector posted:i tried blood starved beast about 5 times today before i had to stop playing and let my roomie use the tv. my best attempt involved not locking on and baiting it into swipes that i rolled through, and then punished it with a strong attack. that worked out pretty well, but getting caught once in its freak-out attack is an instant kill for me at my level. i'll have to keep at it tomorrow. can you parry this thing, out of curiosity? you can parry it, at least some of the attacks. Idk if all of them are

you can parry him but i find that gets pretty risky in his last phase. i just dodge through his poo poo and hit his rear end until he dies.

it's not terrible, but it's just enough where it's making it tedious to do this boss run over and over

Dodge towards him to your right and all his attacks will go over you. Sometimes he ends up too far away to punish him, in which case just wait for his next move. If you want to make the fight super easy mode throw an oil urn at him to start and use fire paper

i took a second shot, and beat him just by rolling without using consumables. i'm glad i played my last two souls games no shield, because it's made me 100 times better at dodging and attacking without a lock-on.

Load times aren't 5-15 seconds. They're 5-15 seconds shorter. They're still pretty long. They put item descriptions there like Dark Souls now, though.

This is the first souls game my wife is a boss at. She can land visceral attacks and even killed the cleric demon first try! I'm only coaching her through boss fights she's finally confident enough to run around. And shes high, she beat the cleric demon high as gently caress  Violent past with cover weapons is a really good new player mix. having stopping power on your gun reach and speed on your weapon and good early game defenses for when you gently caress up.

axe is really strong as the starter weapon its what I picked my first time through and the 2 hand form owns. I've run through several times though and I think my personal favorite is the saw cleaver cause its so quick and versatile

Axe is a good choice. sector_corrector posted:from my experience you're swimming in upgrade mats after a while, and can farm at least the early ones, so feel free to go wild w/ trying out weapons and upgrading them in the first tier Blood stone chunks (needed to go from +6 to +9) can be a huge pain so don't waste them. If you explore a whole bunch you'll get enough to get two weapons to +9 and one to +8, but after that you gotta grind and the drop rate on them is really lovely.
