I've got to say, I just had an absolute blast getting all thirty of my bones in the Grand Archives. :allears: I love an area where I can just sort of hover around and put hosts on edge while the much-deadlier-than-me mobs murder them. Hell, the abundance of crystal lizards make a good indicator of how new they are to the area, and therefore whether I can just hang back and read SA while I wait for them to die on their own.

Basically I'm saying that I prefer to do my PvP as far away from other players as possible.

I had someone try this on me last night. They kept running away and hanging around the Sage. A succession of three Bluecops showed up and died desperately trying to kill them. I just ignored them since they weren't really bothering me and calmly explored the area. The two encounters with the Sage were a bit dramatic and I almost killed the invader before they ran and I finished off the Sage.

The last time I saw them they were hanging out on the roof near a gargoyle. I was trying to figure out how I was going to handle it, and started to backtrack to see if I'd missed any hidden paths. I had, and while I was fighting the Outrider I finally got the message that the invader had died. I think they managed to fall off a ledge somehow after all that. All in all it was a great experience and I'm glad I'm the one who came out on top in the end.

I take it back. Refined Gems are super easy to farm. Just kill the red-eye Lothric Knight outside of Emma's place in the High Wall of Lothric. He drops them regularly. I assumed he didn't respawn.

I had a fairly amusing invasion earlier, I was busy in Cathedral of the Deep on NG+ and a Red Phantom came fat rolling towards me and I took off half his health with a single swing of my +5 Ithyril Straight Sword and I finished him off simply when he tried to fat roll away to escape, that's the 4th invader who has died in a few swings to my weapon I guess people aren't increasing Vitality or something.

I take back everything mean I said about the Astora Greatsword. Make it Refined and it turns into a very good sword. It's one level below my Longsword but I'm having a much easier time dealing with all the agile enemies in Irithyll with it than I was with the Longsword, probably because of the stagger, range, and hyperarmor. Its one-handed rolling attack is a thing of beauty, too.

Just need five more large shards to get it up to snuff.

I was around that level when I defeated her. Took me a little over a dozen or so attempts.

The trick is to ignore her clones and just go straight for her, as her clone attacks are easy to dodge and she is quick to kill.

Having high endurance helps a lot.

Not sure what the guy was talking about all those pages back, but even a 5 year old Intel CPU is way faster than what's in the PS4 / Xbox, so it isn't really a surprise. Game runs fine for me as well, outside of some occasional hitching on autosave.

PS4/Xbone are using literal laptop parts and they're priced at £250-300, of course the games for them aren't exactly going to need stellar hardware. People constantly forget just how incredibly weak the consoles are. They're the weakest they've ever been versus expectations and the current hardware climate. It's not like Dreamcast which handily matched those arcade machines teenagers oogled over at the weekends, or PS2/Xbox 1 where their games were comparable to the most current PC releases.

Just never heard the term "rear end 2 rear end" and the internet has taught me to always assume the worst when it comes to phrases like this so I was way over thinking it.

I think what he meant was that it doesn't happen outside of those, to which, realistically, he is incorrect given that if you can think of something a human being has probably done it.

If by saying this you're doubting its legitimacy, you can look at it for yourself if you own DS2: http://fextralife.com/forums/t31213/dark-souls-ii-pc-censored-word-list/

edit: Also, "corn" is on the list because of the word cornhole- if it was typed as "corn hole" it would get around the censor if that wasn't there.

Yeah, poise DOES seem to work with some weapons. It's just that regular greatswords (the class, not the weapon named Greatsword) seem to have way too few "poise-frames". I've been using the Mirrah/Hollowslayer greatsword 2-handed and I can reliably poise through most enemy attacks.

Wait, so he DOES continue to drop them? Someone earlier in the thread said you could only get one guaranteed drop from him, but that changes everything.

That boss is weird, something ain't right with it and phantoms. If you have three guys fighting it, the boss will behave according to the most distant phantom. If there's one guy hanging back he will rush and everyone gets consumed in the abyss. Even worse if the guys are focusing the bracelets on their right instead of the more difficult and time-consuming left bracelet. That poo poo needs to be whacked first while there's no skeletons running amok.

I found the boss far easier solo.

Personally found DS1 Nito far more interesting. I like the concept of Wolnir but the fight is a bit too sloppy and not very mechanically polished. The hands clip through geometry, sometimes clip backwards through the boss himself, sometimes the skeletons' hitboxes stop working and you can't hurt them and they can't hurt you. That sort of thing. Nito was just a scary bastard hiding in the dark stabbing you through the floor with that incredibly intense music going.
