I've forgotten how to get to the disconnected stretch of bridge that you can see from the Foot of the High Wall, the one with a demon wandering on it. Can someone refresh my memory?

Farron Keep, watchdog of farron bonfire if you have it if not, go to the bonfire before the doors you open with the flames, forget the name of it, and hang a right as you walk towards the doors. There'll be a slug tower, keep going, you'll see a ladder

They throw insanely slowly, you can basically only ever land it if you preemptively throw it at someone who's going to go take a sip or you knocked them down from a riposte or something.

Gologle posted:It's got the highest damage of any straight sword and it still has the R1 spamming goodness of all straight swords. Only its R2 is arguably useless, and even that is still useful for baiting out attacks. I was using the Dark Sword because I'm an unrepentant power gamer but once I found a Lothric Knight Sword I switched to that. It's got only slightly less damage and your R2 is a thrusting attack. I also feel like maybe it has more range? But it's hard to tell if that's just confirmation bias or not. e: The real reason is because it goes with my outfit, though.

NG+ scales up higher in older games, bonfires are more scarce in older games, enemies are less predictable (if you haven't played 3+ other souls games with the same exact AI yet.) You also get a million flasks now unless you play sorcerer then you need Fp flasks.

Dr. Video Games 0112 posted:I dont claim to know the exact broken properties of it. I do know that I can run in at the Sage in Archives and get a couple of hits in with my BEST weapon and he'll teleport. If I run in with the Dark Sword, he just stands there and dies from 100 to 0 without being able to teleport. As one who abused the hell out of it until I got bored and switched to "nonoptimal" weapons, here's what I see as broken: * Longest range in SS, near claymore range. * Near claymore damage * SS speed, spammability Honestly, most of the problems would be fixed if it were reclassified as a GS and had the moves slowed down.

Yeah this was my first souls game and the sheer amount of estus just felt absurd, I never really felt like I had to actually get good at a fight to win, just run away and drink every time I got hit, with only really Pontiff Sullyvahn and the Nameless King being able to punish it at all.

Just I roll my eyes over when souls fan in general do that poo poo (hur hur boss was so easy I dunno why people found him/her hard). Od i do agree some of that is minimized with all those estus we got. Granted people didn't' like the limited DS2 estus you start off with so, it's like well what can they do to balance it?

I think they tried to balance it with ashen estus but the problem is: 1) magic blows, so most people aren't going to be using it, which means most people aren't going to care about FP 2) you STILL get a lot of estus. the 9 I mentioned using is from me having 2 put away for ashen estus (so I can have 1 when I invade) Tuxedo Catfish posted:you go shopping for dicks that'll fit in your pants?

If he wants to, he'll literally just bumrush you until your back is against the wall and his farts instakill you. Other times he'll just sit around and do nothing but swipe. It's a shame too, because it would be one of my favorite bosses if there actually was any strategy involved beyond "get lucky" or "use a strong weapon and kill him in 20 seconds".

I don't think you even need a strong weapon, I think I killed him last time with an unupgraded longsword just by hitting his Zelda bracelets. I've never seen him phase through the cliff even on my first playthrough, where I was up against it for a while.
