I thought you need to kill Darriwil to get the fang. Well whatever. The patch looked really epic but Gostoc Nepheli and Diallos still haven’t moved a muscle in my game and Kenneth is still MIA.

I should go back and check on Ken. He said he was gonna make me a knight of Limgrave and then when I showed up he was like "oh yeah, I'm not allowed to actually do that"

you can get blaidd to help you kill darriwil which makes it a lot easy



moonveil requires a lot more effort to get early in the game

Also Moonveil's not overwhelmingly better than a regular Uchigatana anymore. After the nerf Transient Moonlight's stagger damage is equal to Unsheathe and it only staggers in melee range so you can't stagger with the moon laser anymore. It's still really good but it's not categorically better than Unsheathe anymore. Unsheathe also does more damage (though I think it always did?)

Another difference between Bloodhound's Fang and the Drake Sword is that Bloodhound's Fang never stops being awesome

I think I'm going to start a new file again. I always do this with games with different builds but I used to have time for it, lol. tried str/dex first and then i tried an int/dex build before I knew what I was doing, but I find myself pinging things once with spells to get them to chase me and then going to melee, which isn't what seems to be the plan for int builds. it feels like I'm cheating my way out of some of the stealth and making combat harder. might do str/fth next.

I need to try some of the int ones besides moonveil though, like wing of astel, maybe the rotten crystal sword if inflicting rot is good in pve
