Why do they build bottomless pits beneath elevators

I've been farming up shackles to get the pyromancy achievement and it's funny how many people will flee in absolute terror as soon as their posse of phantoms gets thinned out a little.

Tallgeese posted:Wait, you actually entered the animation where you reared back stunned without him touching you first? Yep, then his sword ended up in me and rip. I'm seeing a lot more hackers and stuff on average than in DS2. For the final boss should I stay with a chaos weapon or reinfuse it? The soundtrack spoiled it ages ago.

Ugh, Farron's Keep is loving awful and I can't find anyone to summon. Apparently I need to kill three flames, but I've only found two and can't find the third to save my loving life

Kanos posted:Mound Makers are literally "purple invaders who can kill phantoms to win instead of the host if they want". There's nothing super exciting about them. I like when I can tell the host is super anxious about me as a purple invader. I said this in a previous post but I like helping them along the way and hitting them every so often in an "Oops! Teehee!" type manner just to put them on edge. Finally, I'll backstab them or kick them off the edge when they're good and ripe. It's awesome

it was really surprising to discover that I could buy the final boss' armor set after killing him as a sunbro. wonder if that's a bug? also really glad to discover that the game doesn't automatically kick you into ng+. if there was one lesson they should have taken away from dark souls 2, it's that

Andrigaar posted:Is it time for confession, my son? Guy told me yesterday he might've found a way to parry everyone without fail, but he just told me it wasn't him. What RBA describes is quite new. Couldn't do it in DS1, couldn't in 2. Best you could do was riposte, and not even that in 2 (tele backstabs only). Tallgeese fucked around with this message at 06:59 on Apr 25, 2016 |

Welp, went to do Nameless King with my buddies today and one of them was so bugged that while we were in *his* game the boss didn't do any attacks to us phantoms and he just freeze-floated around while we wailed on him, then vice versa when my friend was phantoming for us.Lprsti99 posted:Ugh, Farron's Keep is loving awful and I can't find anyone to summon.

There's one of those tree-wielding giant deer assholes right next to the ramp up.

The first bit of city proper is hell to go through, but once you reach the next bonfire it's a winter wonderland with an absurdly quick trip to the boss.

Spooky Bear Ghost posted:So black bow of pharis has a cool weapon art...when it works. Seems like about 30% of the time it does a neato home in effect where all three arrows hit simultaneously, the rest of the time you waste two arrows cause they fly off to the sides. If anyone knows about this or has an idea about why the arrows only home sometimes, that'd be awesome cause I really like it when it works  If not thats cool too cause using the recurve to pincushion fools is also fun

I don't mind rapiers/estocs, but dark swords and having to block/soak/dodge 6-8 consecutive super-fast attacks is really some bullshit. I half hope they nerf Stamina eventually.

Andrigaar posted:As a further PSA just because they are assholes: Basic pyromancy busts them down to kindling right quick. Better PSA: They get roasted by all fire. Including the random bonfires throughout the level. You barely have to actually fight any of them. The things to light in Farron are pretty easy to find, every single ramp on a hill that you can see leads to one. There's one super early on, one right before the bonfire that describing it as such helps nothing because you would have found it if you find the bonfire, and one a bit past the gate.

Mehrunes posted:Who here has beaten TP as a pure sorcerer? Bathe me with your wisdom before I lose my mind. great heavy magic missile on phase one crystal soul spear on phase two because it pierces + you have less openings to cast always keep as much distance as possible because it opens up the three big lovely attacks that have a lot of recovery, letting you get in casts. don't ever cast when he does the basic swings, even though the pattern is usually 2 swings->teleport swing he can mix it up and do more teleports after the teleport swing. wait for him to do big attacks that you know you can reliably cast on. don't bother with health flasks you die in one/two hits anyways so pack like a 6/8 distribution so you can blast off soul spears as much as possible because boy howdy youre gonna need a lot if your lockon doesn't work during the vulnerable bit in phase 2 dumbfire them or keep a moonlight greatsword on hand to go ham with (phase 2 is braindead simple in melee if you consider this option) edit: don't use soul stream the cast time is so long even with max cast speed that you can be punished for casting it vs. a big attack as early as possible because he will teleport slash you. really i'd just recommend using the MLGS here in phase 2 because melee is so easy in this fight vs. magic Fereydun fucked around with this message at 07:23 on Apr 25, 2016 |

For Farron Swamp just follow the large fires, they'll lead you to every single candle in the zone. Anywhere else is a detour.

Found both of these, got oneshot by rear end in a top hat deer dudes like three times, then stumbled across the 'roast over bonfire' method. My sanity thanks you both!
