i love that this PC port still barely functions correctly. i was doing red invasions for the slug lady in the swamp, and i got put into a game where the host had already challenged the crystal sages. i got to stand outside the fog wall and watch his health bar go up and down while they fought. luckily (for me) the guy lost and i got a free tongue? i really don't understand how this was even supposed to happen.

Babe Magnet posted:its pretty bogus that, even if you do meet the requirements of a weapon when you 2h it but not 1h it, you still get the scaling penalty wait does it gently caress up the scaling from all stats or just strength? I've been two handing the immolation tinder because why raise my strength above 12 when I'm always gonna be two handing it anyways. Either way, that's pretty stupid.

I think all stats, friend. I meet the dex requirements on a lot of weapon on one of my characters but not the str, and I'm getting piss-poor scaling.

AFAIK that just affects the reading on the menu, not the actual damage you're dealing. Still dumb since previous games did not have this issue.

My favorite thing about heavy dart is it does piss poor damage but still drains huge chunks of stamina.

Polo-Rican posted:Just started this last night. I've heard lots of people saying this is the easiest in the series, but High Wall feels significantly harder than any other Souls starting area. (That's good! I've beaten Demons, DkS1, and Dks2 a ton of times each, so I was concerned there wouldn't be any challenges left in the gameplay) It helps if you've played Bloodborne, because many enemies have the same levels of aggression, and you have to roll more. Also, there's no poise in Bloodborne either.

High Wall is harder than other starting areas because they copy+pasted lothric knights from the late game into it and just lowered their stats. They are aggressive as hell compared to balder knights and similar enemies. Oh well that's actually nice. I'm still not gonna try before finishing Sirris quest because I don't trust this game at all

Sakurazuka posted:Irithyll Dungeon probably but Catherdral of the Deep before you opened the first short cut on the right side of the bonfire felt like the longest to me, probably because I kept getting killed by the gank squads of those things that drop from walls/ceilings. I understand those things in Undead Burg, but why did they keep using them in the cathedral? It was not fun at all walking super slowly and spinning the camera around looking for them.

"Less consequences" implies that there are still consequences, except it's in translation so who knows. It basically tells you nothing.

It was funny as heck when you would swing at a balder knight in the riposte-stance and have the realization of what you just did dawn on you the instant before you self-own.

turtlecrunch posted:Some NPCs questline events have been made easier to trigger. Oh good, hopefully this means to get Siegward and Patches going in the cathedral, you don't have to go around and open the rather pointless front door and then go out the front side of the cleansing chapel since it's a path that you have no real reason to use when you've already opened the other shortcuts you can get to before it. I had to follow a step by step walkthrough before I could ever get Patches to appear. And you have to warp out of the area to another bonfire and back to trigger it, even if you've done everything else right. I'm surprised anyone ever found it. I kind of feel like that quest line was built in a time before the side doors on the chapel had been added, and they expected you to be running through the water and up the ladder to the front door as your only shortcut to the boss.

I was testing the Swordspear and someone invaded and I'm not sure either of us really knew how the weapon worked since they just curled up in a ball and waited for crispy death after a minute of me mashing L2, among other buttons

Decrepus posted:I understand those things in Undead Burg, but why did they keep using them in the cathedral? It was not fun at all walking super slowly and spinning the camera around looking for them. They're usually really easy to spot clinging to walls and ceilings ahead of time. And besides that, they're really, really easy to kill, even like two or three at a once, unlike most enemies. The only place they ever gave me trouble is that area in the Undead Settlement where there's a bunch shooting at you from roofs. They're just not very aggressive, you can just walk up and hit them while they do a huge windup. The cathedral is my favorite area in the game, a nice mix of enemy types, and it really rewards playing carefully and choosing where your want to fight.

So if I can even access the 'use' option on the white circlet, does that mean that loving xbox live being a sack of poo poo the entire weekend and causing about 20 of my summon signs to fail without ever leaving my own world mean that it's me, I'm the bad guy? e: Can you even put a sign down if you're banned or whatever the condition is that you need to use the white circlet?

People were saying that Patches got Greirat killed, so I never talked to him.

Sending him out to pillage for a third time appears to always be a death sentence. Blaziken386 posted:Question. If I just kill patches as soon as I see him, will that gently caress up Siegward's questline? I believe so, yes. I've talked to Patches before talking to Siegward during the second phase of his quest and he didn't have his armor for sale, so my assumption is that turning in his ashes to the merchant would not also give you the option to purchase Siegward's armor.

To everyone saying sorcery is terrible: I've been using it for my first playthrough and it seems pretty useful so far? I've just reached the Cathedral of the Deep and I've been able to one- or two-shot most standard enemies with the relevant Soul Arrow, and soften up tougher ones so they die with a few hits of hanzo steel. Sure, I'd kill things just as well by running up and swording them, but I don't have to expose myself to danger this way. I haven't even started pumping INT yet. So is it just going to fall off in damage or efficiency or what?

For Seigward, I talked to him in the kitchen and he talked about the giant down below, then went to sleep. Just after, I sent Greirat out to scavenge or whatever. I'd already bought the onion knight armor from Patches, and he'd already locked me in the tower, but I didn't talk to him again until later. Siegward never turned up at Yhorm, Greirat came back (and said an onion knight armor dude had helped him), and Patches dialogue never changed. I'm so confused about this questline.
