i think it'd be cool if they had an expensive cracked orb that let you invade games with only a host, and then stopped them from summoning... that's probably too cruel to new players though

i love this game just bizarre that if you just want 1 on 1 duels all day you literally dont have the option, when the previous bad game had several avenues for this lol

Hot Dog. Just discovered that the lovely ring that gives you a tiny heal if you get a 5-hit combo gives you an instant full heal if you get a truly mighty combo going (I.e. using the winged twin axes' infinite spin attack)

If you're skilled at grouping enemies together and use a fast weapon or one with a lot of reach (or both) you literally don't need estus outside of boss fights

I haven't actually ever used it but can't people just summon two co-op phantoms and then hit your red sign and gangbang you ? Either way I don't care because there's basically zero consequences for failing invasions and the full red eye orb is so early to get and you don't have to be kindled or anything to invade so whatever. If it worked like DS2 where you were stuck with cracked orbs & they were limited/expensive then I would feel way differently

Can you use the password system with red signs or is that for co op only ? I want to 1v1 the next poster who flames me

half the time you get summoned by gankers lol. and when im summoning ppl for duels i still get invaded by orb users and darkmoons and poo poo. like ??? why not make it so that you can only see red summon signs if you have no phantoms and it blocks others from coming in? would b an easy fix

you even spawn with full hp if youre summoned w/ the sign so it was clearly designed with duels in mind

If they would make it so if you get summoned via red soapstone it blocks host from summoning more friends or summoning blues to help him out, it would be great.

same with using the red orb tho (unless you mean the max HP penalty? either way you get a full heal when you're summoned)

So I saw that the PS4k is real and is coming out in October. Every game released by September of this year has to be compatible with it, and it will have stuff like better framerate or higher res stuff. also sounds like developers can revisit older titles and patch in support. If Bloodborne/DS3 get 60fps support id probably buy a new system.

It's me, I'm also a sucker

being able to invade topped out is such a good change though lol

Happened in both playthroughs, regarding the end of anris quest line: the stupid pilgrim never appeared in the church as a statue, so I couldn't save anri and he died, again. Annoying. Finished that part then went and murdered the cainhurst lady

There should be a dragon eye. But if you want to 1v1 just summon other people's signs, you can see them while unembered can't you.

I love how different the difficulty of bosses is between builds. I beat Dragonslayer Armour first time but Dancer drove me prodromal. I thought I'd never beat Nameless King and the last boss until I gave it a good long break and beat them both this morning over coffee.... but I know someone completely unexpected is gonna kick my rear end next time. Its great.
