Wait, aren't Ska Studios the people who made Survival Crisis Z? I'm tempted to buy this game just for all the entertainment that game gave me. The style isn't my thing but they've made at least one really fun game I liked.

I mean heck, (ring spoiler) there's a ring that just ups your roll speed, nullifying a good part of the penalty of wearing too much heavy armor.

Any strategies for the first boss aside from "git gud"? Since it's all 2D - I can't be a rolling maniac since I just roll into him.  And he hits so hard!Just grind up a bit?

Been wondering about the candelabra outside boss rooms, maybe the number of candles lit is estimated difficulty? I've never seen more than 2 lit in my game but I'm seeing more in videos of the same bosses. E: Like 5 for the smile queen lets hang out fucked around with this message at 22:30 on Mar 16, 2016 |

Vintersorg posted:Any strategies for the first boss aside from "git gud"? You need to be close to roll through him, and being lighter will get you better rolls. You can roll through the lightning shockwaves too, good for the 2nd half of the fight because he'll jump over you. Grenades do tons of damage to him. Like you could probably kill him with 6.

Vintersorg posted:Any strategies for the first boss aside from "git gud"? If you have grenades they do like 1/8 of his health bar if it hits. Other than that I had success keeping my distance so he'd do his electric attack and then jump in and hit him a few times before rolling/jumping away. In his 3rd phase he can jump from 1 side of the arena to the other and hit you with his bullshit hitbox sword so you have to try and roll under him and then immediately roll back through him so he doesn't hit you with his annoying backswing after landing.

One will lead back to the shore and to a new area as well.

I've played every class up through the first boss and it's still tough to say what style I dig most, so I think I'm just start with a basic sword and board build. Is a total tank two hand greatsword manly man build viable in this game? Roll distance seems pretty important so I'm hesitant to gear towards that.

From what I understand (can't personally confirm) defense is actually effective so heavy armor will let you tank quite a bit. I have used a greatsword for a bit and I can say they are quite good. Absurdly so for taking out smaller enemies, a bit tougher versus bosses since they take a while to stun, but still nice cause of the high damage.

The homeware bone equivalent only letting you travel to sanctuaries with a guide is a little weird since you can just immediately use that guide to go to any other visited sanctuary. It really aught to limit itemless warping be limited to talking to guides at sanctuaries, but let item warps go to any visited sanctuary. The present limit only adds a few seconds of hassle. The Moon Monster posted:Is it just me or does this game give you way more gold than you can productively spend? Yeah certainly, which is nice because I lost almost all of mine repeatedly dying to the mad alchemist for dumb reasons but it was no big deal.

I've never seen more than 2 lit in my game but I'm seeing more in videos of the same bosses. I believe those are for the number of people who have recently died to that boss. A lit candle is either a successful attempt or a failed attempt and I don't know which.

You can spend gold on dust, but it swiftly becomes irrelevant. For the witch, staying close to her at all times helps a ton, everything she can do can be evaded by a dodge roll to her opposite side, or by airdashing at the right moment. Holy gently caress the final boss on new game+ is -insane- Queen of Smiles a shield helps a lot? the sword attack where she summons them around her is the best time to pour on damage, just play safe until she does that

Where do I go after completing the Red Hall of Cages? I went into Hager's Cavern but the difficulty seemed to spike dramatically there so I figured maybe I'm underleveled/underequipped and should come back later.

I think that's the next place in the default progression. You could also go to the Dome of the Forgotten which is where I went. Just go to the surface and keep heading right.

Notorious QIG posted:Man I am not good at this game, the Queen of Smiles is pounding my face in. My damage more than doubled against her by using whatever item gives temporary Holy buff to your weapon. Also you can use a shield to tank her hits and it barely eats any stamina, her range is pretty good and it makes dodging tricky but with a shield its a joke. Hit her when she shoots swords everywhere but don't get too comfortable with that pattern because once her health gets low she'll occasionally follow it up with a spinning attack that does tons of damage.

Yeah, it seems like damage type is really important here. With the proper buff you will typically do twice or even more your usual damage. And stacking defense let's you pretty effectively tank that type of damage, too.
