DeadlyHalibut posted:Really good end game soul farming spot in Archdragon Peak Cheers, that's a great farming spot! I got myself the Dragonslayer Swordspear and oh my god what an incredibly cool weapon  I used it in the aforementioned farming spot and it was just a matter of ZAP, twoshot, twoshot, twoshot. It's so good! I also loving love the armor set you get from the boss, it looks so cozy. With my newly acquired levels in VIT I decided I want to be HUGE so I coupled it with my favorite enormous pants and this is my current Fashion Souls: It's a shame that all this super cool stuff is right at the end of the game, because now I have to play through NG+ if I want to actually use it and I'm a big baby who thinks NG is hard enough

Game runs fine for me as well, outside of some occasional hitching on autosave. It's more than just one guy. It's been multiple people in multiple forums.

So I've been trying to into that drat cage on the dudes back to join the mound makers, but I can't, it won't let me, I don't get the option. I haven't killed the 3rd boss yet so I don't know what's up

Work Friend Keven posted:I think my problem is I'm summoning a guy and then it's got too much health when that guy dies around 50% every single time but there's not a lot of space to hit him without a summon because of the darn arrows. ... Run around to avoid the arrows. I mean literally run around, use your sprint and get as far as you can once he raises the bow, then make sharp turns when the arrows catch up to you. Mix with a few rolls towards the end of the attack to avoid the next one.

What the actual gently caress. Apparently there are claims that Black Separation Crystal adds points to the same invisible "online play ban" counter that disconnects do. The details are sketchy at best, and I hope this is just someone talking out of their rear end but if it's true that'd be dumb as hell.

Gotta say the Pontiff Greatsword is a really cool weapon. Seems to have good dex/str scaling. Free fire buff for a focus skill. Nice move set with lots of horizontal swings. And the focus attack looks awesome as hell.

People questioned that in Dark Souls 2 as well and it wasn't true in that game, so presumably it's not in this one either. Or at least, hopefully.

Lost count of the amount of times I've been unable to enter boss zones even when they've been started by the host. Don't see any difference, signs are everywhere.

I will say that the most frustrating thing during Sunbroing is on certain bosses (Usually the puzzle bosses), when the fight doesn't activate right away you'll be waiting outside the fog door until the host realises he needs to start the fight. Sometimes they never do. They get confused as to what their buddies are up to, then flap around for ages trying to convince us to follow them. I want to, buddy, I really do

There's a system in place where if you use the crystal a lot it will not allow you to summon, but I believe its reset twice a day or so. I was reading about the use of the "Way of the White Circlet". Here's the description from the guide: "Online play item. Restore connection to other worlds. Those who engage in unjust deeds when in contact with other worlds will lose their connection to them. Way of the White Circlets assume such sin as their own, but are found few and far between. Acting without honor will never be without risk. Repeatedly disconnecting from online sessions blocks you from using online play. Use this item to restore your connectivity. A new one only reappears about twice a day, so don't abuse disconnects."

I'm kind of wondering if the online play ban even exists this time around. I've alt+f4ed out of a bunch of invasions with hackers because I wasn't sure how bad they could gently caress over your character this time and I've crystaled out of bugged invasions where the the person was fighting the boss. I still get instant invasions and I haven't had any issues.

Exodee posted:What worked for me was sticking close to his left-hand side. (the one where he carries the purple-glowing sword) If you're close enough, he'll usually overshoot you when he attacks with his flaming sword, and getting hit by the purple one isn't nearly as punishing. He has a ton of long-ranged attack combos anyway, so trying to keep distance is likely to get you killed regardless. This has made a huge difference, thanks. Still annoying i have to 2h my weapon and this loses the horizontal attacks

I've had the BlueCop Cov equip'd since I got it - easily 40~ game hours ago. I've yet to have a single summon to defend anyone. Any idea what is doing this? Finished the game, but was slightly annoyed I never got to help anyone as a blue. Invasions and Summons + Buddy Summons have worked flawlessly. I just don't seem to get auto-summoned.

So, there is nothing like the Small White Soapstone in DS2, where you'd get some stuff out of being a bodyguard for a bit? I'm reluctant to summon someone in a new area and then just dick around looking at the scenery.

When you black crystal out of someone's world, you don't disconnect from the session. They are talking about your personal connection to the Dark Souls server: pulling your internet while you're in online mode and other methods of exiting the game into offline mode without doing it in the main menu. edit: That's why they use that specific wording regarding what the circlet does, because they're not talking about you exiting using mechanics built into the game.

Lol at dying to Abyss Watchers because a poison mook with a spear poked me through the fog gate mid-fight. Also gently caress the Abyss Watchers. I get why they're not that hard but I can't get a grasp on them, especially in part 2.
