can't you stack regen with the sun princess ring, that adjudicator's shield replacement, and a blessed weapon? maybe it doesn't 100% counter it, but it'd definitely neuter it somewhat

Mimic hat owns and helped me clear out the old lady's inventory super quickly before starting NG+

Put on Mimic head plus Shield of Want plus covetous ring, go to dragonkin mausoleum bonfire and murder the poo poo out of summoned drakeblood knights on the lower floor for almost 8k souls per kill with a bonfire 30 feet from you in case you die or need to refill estus.

So final boss killed me a lot. A LOT. And I thought Champ and NK part 2 were hard.

However now I am the final boss running around with his sword and armor. Really like his sword, if they're using a parryable weapon then at some stage I'll parry them and probably kill them. If they're parrying then I'll switch to 2handed. People who parry seem to keep trying to parry when it's two-handed, I guess it does look quite small. I'll take the free hits I suppose. The flame buff/smash has a pretty impressive range and duration.

Bumming around Smouldering Lake, invaded a group of 4 named after the mario characters. Couldn't get a good look due to 4 people chasing me, but I think they were geared up to be mario characters as well. With rapiers. Managed to get far enough away to black crystal outta there and promptly reinvaded them. Ran around for another few minutes looking for any opening, eventually parried Mario as a complete fluke and killed him. Turns out he was the host.

Woulda felt bad for crashing the party if they weren't so relentless at jumping 1 guy all at once christ. Guess I won't make that highlight reel.

What are some fun/interesting weapons/builds worth basing a playthrough around? For PvE, and not a big heavy weapon, since I just wrapped up a heavy weapon run.

I was summoned to sunbro on Champ and the host was doing the Sword Master glitch. Congrats, host, you just made your cheese take even longer because there's no way I'm going to risk my medal if you're not putting any effort in. We both just ran around watching SM whittle him down and I threw a lightning bolt at the end to finish him. The host continuously pointed at the boss and used the 'Hey!' emote.

Although it has garbage damage like all spears, the Partisan has one of the nicest all round useful movesets in the whole game, and one of the best weapon arts (the crazy flip out spin attack thing)

Related, does anyone know if the Partisan can R1 => weapon art combo in PvP like a lot of other weapons with that art? I might actually try it out even though it's weaker than most straight swords.

If they buff spears like they did GS it would be cool since atm the estoc is basically a super fast spear with only a 5% damage reduction.

What I love about this is that "Assbutt" gets censored to "rear end****". Priorities.

Thanks to the capitalization situation, I can have a character named "rear end McFucknut" and it's perfectly fine. God drat I love FromSoft.

How can it get any more desecrated? Are there infinity dragon butts now.

This would actually be a pretty cool area, instead of lovely bog you could have tangles of poison thorns or something.

Also the heavy knight's set that wasn't implemented fully looks rad as gently caress, hope that's in the DLC.

This would be cool, like Darkroot Garden but all the plants are dripping toxic poo poo. And the glowing plants that look like items throw dung pies at you when you get close.

I remember when people would noclip in DS2 to take screenshots of geometry that looked like this in areas you'd never see and then legitimately used it to whine about how lovely and rushed the game was.

If you run around the backside of the tower where you get Lucatiel's armor (Mirrah armor) in Undead Settlement there is a beach/ocean intersection where they did not bother smoothing over the geometry at all, so it's just these squares of ocean texture violently clashing with a beach sand texture.

You can see the actual beach better from Lothric Castle on the roof with the gargoyles iirc.

e: Wolnir has N64 doors at the beginning and end of his room, and I think they're also after Oceiros.

My favorite texture is the one at the bottom of a ladder in the Profaned Capital. It looks completely hosed up from the top of the ladder and 'pops' in as you slide down. That is the only way to reach Yorhm so there's no way they didn't notice how hosed up that looked :effort:
