Barudak posted:The only technique that matters is the shoes cause it lets you access stuff early easily and if playing hard mode and above gives you invulnerable frames. The others seem to be junk. Off the top of my head, the first whip one is good since its just a better faster normal attack that does about 2.5 times damage, the extendy pole is great, the dagger teleport is also good since it homes in and goes through walls and floors/ceilings. A lot of them are fun and feel good so therefore are good, but a few are junk, like the heavy blade one that is impossible to not take damage during or get bumped out of the charge up, or the twirling spear one that does horrible damage and not much else.

just to check, are there any more button combos for techniques other than: quarter circle forward, attack quarter circle back, forward, attack double tap forward, attack double tap down, attack full circle, attack i run through them all whenever i get a new weapon just to see if i can pick up any new techniques, but i don’t know if i’m missing any edit: oh and just “tap attack like a madman” i guess Cowcaster fucked around with this message at 17:28 on Jun 20, 2019 |

On the topic of Bloodless, I'm wondering if my situation is common or not. I got to her earlier than what appears to be the intended path by double jump kicking up a series of candles into her area just after getting the double jump. It was only afterwards that I realized the intended route is probably to do twin towers and such to eventually get the laser teleport and get into her area that way. That said, the way I reached her area is clearly also intended since those candles are very obviously placed to allow the series of jumps I did. Maybe it's there as a speed run route to the bad ending?

I'm a little sad greatswords only have one ability, the 236X one, but the way it works is great. You start off running really slow but you gradually build up speed to a ludicrous degree (like, Power of Wolf level speed), and the more speed you gain, the more damage the attack does. It's a bit of an MP hog, especially if you really want to get a running start, but you get a nice chunk of armor when you actually have the attack going so it's pretty nice. I do wish greatswords had an aerial 22X helm splitter like the other swords do though.

Master the knifey boots at the start for their down-down-x technique because it has iframes for days and despite the description saying it's used from the air you can do it from the ground too

I like how the guy who does your cooking/crafting says things like "you're up early" or "you're working late" depending on real-world time.

I'm liking dullahammer head familiar because they don't have to go into any kind of animation to hit enemies. They're pretty aggressive and hit harder than I do, really saving me on hard mode (they're on the boat). Unfortunately they're like a 2% drop so getting more heads is a grind

Pretty much do the boots one constantly for traveling and iframes, and the one on the three section staff was solid. I'm with you on the other ones seeming to be trash that eat your mp that is better used summoning 50 bats.

So is the rapier flurry. But they shouldn't have made these things use MP - the complex inputs should have remained the barrier to spamming them.

Critical Strike that you learn from the thorn whip gives you an instant critical hit and a crazy big hit box *every* time you use it. I said it before, but once you start boosting your mp limit and recharge time it doesn't become a problem.

I’m liking this game so far but the main thing I’m disappointed in is the music. It’s not bad but it’s just not as memorable as sotn soundtrack. Also it starts with a grand swell powerful song on the boat and then when you finally get to the castle it’s dark then a crash and the lights come on and the music swells and plays a song similar to the one on the boat but not as good.

I'm going to share my pain for anyone who didn't realize it, but there are medals you get for no-damaging bosses. They don't have any obvious function but they might count for item completion so now you are like me and have to get them all.garfield hentai posted:Techniques own but it's not the same without the SotN voice acting The umbrella has TAKE THIS!

So do I need to learn to use boots, or some other weapon, to get a little extra movement in the air now that I've gotten double jump? As soon as I got the double jump shard I went back to the wreck of the boat, where a few areas had been out of reach initially, and I've accessed all of them except one that requires standing on a part of the mast that is swinging back and forth. When I double jump right at the end of the swing, I seem to miss the new area by just a fraction of an inch, so I'm thinking maybe there's some trick to just getting out a little bit further. Is this a boot thing?

i made that jump on the ship with the warp ray thing. if you aim it right you can get a good departing angle when you pop out of it. nothing on the ship is really gamebreaking, though, although the sectional staff is fun and solid enough

Oh also in Nightmare mode apparent you don't level up. I restarted on hard and cruised through the Galleon and the first enemy I killed that exploded into the LEVEL UP animation was very confusing

I got the sectional staff right after getting double jump, and it out-damaged all my other weapons for a while, even without a mastery shard. The technique it has is really good too, I mastered it without even knowing about mastery!

stands to reason, in keeping with mentioning order of ecclesia repeatedly on this page, after you beat it once there was a hard mode that capped your level to 50, and an ultra hard mode that capped you to 1
