BigRed0427 posted:Ok, I got some questions about building characters. Are you meeting the soul cost for that level? quote:2: When looking at the attack power of a weapon, what does it mean when it says 100 + 4, for example. First number is the weapon's base damage, second number is the scaling damage. Scaling damage is calculated from the base damage, scaling value on the weapon (which goes from E->A and S, in order of potency), and how much you have in that scaling stat.

is the area after pontiff an optional area? I saw some anri stuff, looked around but that seems like everything. Do I just go back and continue through the dungeons?

BigRed0427 posted:Ok, I got some questions about building characters. You need souls to raise a stat. Raising a stat by a point increases your level. Higher levels demand more souls. That number is the bonus damage you're getting from scaling. All weapons scale off of some stat, unless Raw infused. Raw removes all scaling but increases base damage by 40%

Sheep posted:Anyone have an SL/weapon upgrade list for zone levels for coop? I'm level 35 with a +3 raw sword and it seems like no one is ever around now that I'm doing like Smoldering Lake/Irithyl Catacombs/Anor Londo. I'm guessing I'm underlevelled rather than over. You should be getting a lot of large shards starting in catacombs and then especially smoldering lake. So most people at that point probably have +4 to +6 weapons.

Wagrid posted:I don't think you have. As long as you don't tell Anri where Horace is, they will move to Irithyll. If you beat the catacombs boss before you find Horace the quest line will progress. This happened to me and I also thought I'd hosed it up, so you should be fine. Yep, I actually just found him after completely clearing out the Catacombs again. The only reason I noticed where s/he was because I took the time to completely murder the skeleton horde by halberd alone. Fun fact! 90% of the skeletons will just stand around and look threatening, like thugs in a Jackie Chan movie. I don't think more than two or three skeletons ever swung at me at once, so it was actually kinda fun to clear 'em out. I did tell Anri where Horace was, though. I went back and found a lit prism stone along with what looks like Horace's gear? I just hope Anri didn't go off theirselves.

I need some hot tips on not dying every time to Aldrich's loving arrow rain attack. It seems like after I get him down below 50% health, if he busts that move out it lasts for far, far longer than I have the stamina to evade. I have I think 18 or 20 in that stat and even huffing some grass didn't help much. I could easily end the fight if it weren't for that one thing! Any ideas?

The arrows track you on a delay, so if you zig zag they will struggle to keep up, and also the final second or so of the arrow rain doesn't follow you so if you just turn and run laterally it'll miss.

I noticed that I could sort of trick them by changing direction but by the time I was up and running from the roll they'd tracked me again. Thanks.

Although the invasion system prioritizing worlds with phantoms in them is frustrating, killing a phantom and whittling a host down through their estus as they flee back to a bonfire to summon anyone to help them is extremely gratifying. Even when they alt+f4 after several failed summons right as you're on the cusp of landing the finishing blow. I sure would have loved my tongue trophy, but knowing how frustrated that person must have been owns. Now if only they could do something about invading a world and finding the host and phantoms in reference poses but still moving and attacking and doing damage with no animations. e: anyone used the carthus blood ring? Are the i-frames worth halving my damage absorbtion?

Oh man, the Ancient Wyvren was so loving satisfying. It felt like a much, much better take on the Dragon God fight, and is so satisfying to pull off to its conclusion. Amusing that I could try and pelt it from afar with magic, what a terrible way to do it that would be.

Are there any strength weapons good for Pvp? I'm getting invaded every 2 loving seconds near the archers and I stand no chance with my slow Zweihander. I've tried Exile greatsword and Astora GS and maybe I just suck with them but it seems I have no chance with them either. I would try the Hollowslayer GS but it's only at plus 2 and I doubt scales are easy to find.

The Dragonslayer Greataxe has been my go to for some time now. I wish it had a bit better range but oh well. Wont fix your slow problem though, but I seldom come across players that take more than 3 or certainly 4 hits to kill. You'll be able to buy scales later on, not cheap but you'll be able to.

Man, Cathedral of the Deep is classic dark souls. Good chunk of low level enemies that can you can underestimate if you're not careful. I just unlocked all the shortcuts on the cleansing shrine, so it was pretty satisfying just exploring and finding every nook and cranny just to get in this massive building. I haven't finished it yet though. Is it possible to just cheese your way past the giants inside? Or will you run out of arrows before then? Why can't they all be
