And since I don't invest a ton in attunement since I'm a physical damage build, I get a lot less uses than you might think I do. also how am I the bitter one here, all I'm saying is that if you want a war of attrition than by god you'll loving get one lol Appoda posted:I'm aware of the situation with poise, but drat, are people going online with this stuff? That's a serious advantage over other players if one can have DS1-style poise dependency while others cannot. Nah, no one's done it as far as I'm aware. The ban risk is too high for most people, I assume. It just CAN be done. Babe Magnet fucked around with this message at 02:46 on Apr 30, 2016 |

I don't use heavy weapons, my damage is piss poor per strike. i play caestus because they're fun, not because I want to constantly win every fight. Also I do punish frost sips. I punish it with punches, and I punish it with sips of my own. I mean this all just reads like you being bitter about losing to melee because PvP sorcery is trash. Get better at dealing with it. e: and I really don't want to see "well if you were using a heavy weapon" because I don't, which means whoever is may have different feelings on sippies, which means we're now talking about some mysterious third party that may or may not exist lol

That's a serious advantage over other players if one can have DS1-style poise dependency while others cannot. Enabling poise is probably the least of anyone's worries if they run into a hacker. At least From seems to support backing up your saves this time, if their customer support page about invalid data is true.

I whined about one occaision (while admitting that I've been owned a whole bunch of magic users and even offering video evidence of such ownings), but the entire reason we're having this back-and-forth is because you can't let go that someone has a different definition of fair than you do lol argondamn posted:Trying to imagine how I'm going to get the Chaos Blade on a <25 character.

Is there anyway to get an item from one of your characters to another one of your characters? I'd really like to get the Dragonscale helm to a low-level character I have without having to play the entire game to get it.

Viperix posted:I heard an important rumor that needs confirmation: there's a decent whip? Like that could actually be used in PvE? Well that could be argued but they at least have a moveset that isn't garbage and can do something resembling damage. I only just got my run going and Curse-rotted Greatwood soundly destroyed my rear end. It's going to take some getting used to because it's not a super quick weapon for not super amazing damage. The extra range is nifty though and the R2s have an arc a country mile wide.

Babe Magnet posted:I actually didn't even think you did play sorcery because of how you talk about it, I was just using your own words lol Well you clearly don't know anything about playing it given you thought you could cast any spell with 1 FP. I've played sorcery in PvE a lot so I know how much mana some spells consume. I know how long their drat cast times can be, I know how thin you have to spread your stats out compared to a normal character. I know how slow and easy to dodge most spells are in a 1v1 as well. That's why I don't care if a mage uses their estus. I mean most of the time if you are properly chasing then you can get a free hit in anyways, and since they aren't getting health back from that sip its a trade that benefits you. So crying about a mage using ashen estus just comes off as pathetic. That's the last I'm gonna say on this since I'm sure we're all sick of reading this.

Not letting sorcerers blue estus in 1v1s is stupid, they have a limited range of attacks that they can pull off and each attack uses up a resource that they've probably spent levels on, just like melee so not letting them replenish that resource like in melee is unfair. It's like if you said using green blossoms or buffs were unfair.

I guess I haven't said it enough but I only really go sip-for-sip when the other players M.O. is clearly draggign a fight out with a war of attrition. I'm giving them what they want lol

I've been doing a lot of invading as a mad phantom in the swamp. Just had someone climb up the ladder to the Farron Keep ruins, and wait for me at the top. Only problem is, he tries attacking too soon, just as I'm coming off the ladder, and falls to his death.

If there is a harder boss in this series than Nameless King I can't remember it, and I've beaten them all multiple times up to now. I've never felt like I've had to execute as perfectly as this. One gently caress-up is enough to put you far enough behind that you're probably hosed in the second phase. I've identified maybe one attack he does that allows enough time to heal afterwards with any consistently.
