Internet Kraken posted:The goblet is Wolnir's skull. When you touch it, it creates a magic hallucination of Wolnir to fight. Its not actually teleporting you to the abyss and Wolnir wasn't actually a 50 foot tall skeleton man. I'm still holding out for an Aldia/DS2 tagteam fight or something.

Notorious QIG posted:Why do you say this? The only argument I could understand is that you don't need the Covenant of Artorias to survive it, but you also don't need that to enter the Abyss in the Dark Souls 1 DLC or the Dark Chasm of Old in Dark Souls 2. The whole fight just feels more like a hallucination than something that is completely real. I very much doubt Wolnir was 50 feet tall. There's also no way 3 random trinkets he took off dead clerics actually protected him from the abyss. But if the whole fight is some magic illusion, then conventional logic doesn't really apply. Your bloodstain is also left inside the room with the goblet in different spots depending on where you die in the fake abyss. Which made me think you're just running around like a crazy person in there swinging at magic darkness. argondamn posted:I kill a ton of people using Lloyd's Talismans I think you're exaggerating a lot. Yeah they are better than I intitially thought despite the lock-on being completely worthless. People can totally just run around in a big circle to probably outlast it, but in a fight with more than one player that means someone has been taken out of the picture. I find it most useful on phantom bodyguards, as they will either be afraid too fight or way easier to kill when they make a mistake.

There should be a reverse giant seed, that only invaders can use It should make all enemies in the area aggro onto the host at once, and acts as a permanent lloyd's talisman

BillmasterCozb posted:There should be a reverse giant seed, that only invaders can use I thought it'd be kind of cool to give invaders an item that seals off an area with fog walls for a minute or something, to limit how far the host can run and temporarily prevent them from just disappearing into the boss fight.

Small and Blue posted:Maybe it should not be because it inherently gives the host an advantage and is also dumb and boring as gently caress. If you are good enough at pvp the host has no advantage no matter how many estus uses he has more than you do. Undead Hunter Charms are how I win the majority of my fights, so no they're not useless. Maybe when my main computer gets fixed I'll make a video incorporating their use because I'm getting sick of people that don't know how to use them effectively saying they're useless.

Obligatum VII posted:I've gotten 30 ears on two characters now just by wearing Sentinel/Darkmoon through the majority of my NG playthrough. A shame it doesn't work for a lot of people. Maybe it's some weird nonsense about when you first started playing DS3? Cause I played it on launch day. Maybe some sort of account ID stuff messing everything up? I hear a few people saying they get summoned non-stop, so maybe there's some weird sorting going on where a handful of people are getting 95% of the summons. Like, maybe if you have [some connection attribute] the game will pick you ahead of people who don't have that every time. I played at launch and got 2 summons in about 20 hours in the covenant, and have gotten 0 since then.

I know, I just had to empty quote that for how bafflingly wrong it is to say. It's not remotely true in either fightclubs or invasions when you are fighting more then just the host, which is like, more then half of invasions. Even if it were true it's a contradiction to say that estus management is the key to winning and then say resummonable phantoms are fine in the same post. Like wtf.

Assuming that it allows + or - 3 after +5 he could have had a +10? Neat, what was your handle? I might have shadowplayed it.

It's not remotely true in either fightclubs or invasions when you are fighting more then just the host, which is like, more then half of invasions. No, it's pretty much the truth. First of all fight clubs are dumb and don't count at all. I'm talking about invasions. When you invade mid-battle into a host plus 1 or more phantoms that may or may not have all their estus charges, and who usually waste their charges by healing after 1 or two hits. Eventually the host, who in most cases panics with their charges as well, will run out. Hence estus management. The host sitting at a bonfire with 2 or 3 other phantoms is a different story. In that situation you just accept the fact that you are already dead and use everything you can to your advantage to try and make a dent in their phantom fortress. Situations like that aren't going to change. You can't change how they approach an invasion. You can only change how you approach it. Take the challenge or black crystal out. Who gives a turkey?

If you stacked double tearstone via the morion blade and used power within (along with appropriate sorcery buffing rings and the dusk crown) to knock yourself into critical HP, what kind of crazy damage could you do with a soul stream in PvP? I figure it'd be funny if you could alpha strike with it via obscuring ring and potentially one-shot people.

Hence estus management. 90% of my successful invasions end with the hosts/phantoms still having estus because they didn't top off and don't realize that 70% hp is not enough to survive a full combo the reason someone said you shouldnt be able to summon the same phantom during an invasion, which has nothing to do with ganks, is because infinite phantom summons=infinite estus for phantoms, in a game where the host can roll around indefinitely while his lapdog fights you. and if you have a slow-rear end weapon, good luck catching the roll-man.

GulagDolls posted:90% of my successful invasions end with the hosts/phantoms still having estus because they didn't top off and don't realize that 70% hp is not enough to survive a full combo I'm not sure I've ever seen the host run out of estus. Maybe if you invade early in NG+ when they only have a few charges. The "meta" I've seen is to catch someone in a riposte/drop attack/combo for most-all of their hp. I guess if you're fighting 1v1 against someone of a similar skill level estus charges might come into play but that's like a 5% occurrence.

Atreiden posted:Don't worry to much about it on your first character. Especially not if you try to play it blind. You are fairly close to being able to respec.technically one boss and most of a dungeon away, though it may take a while to find. getting your dex to 16 (or even 18) for the uchigatana is fine, even if you are going for a str build, since a lot of str weapons require that. And just upgrade the long sword to +2 if you have the materials, it should be fine for where you are. Good point, I might give that a shot. Probably better to wait to reroll until i see more of the game anyways. To bad the game seems more linear then dark souls 2, so far anyways. Because i like finding out where the characters and weapons are in one play through, and suicidal running to them with the next character when they are still low leveled.

You do sort of progress from killing humans to gods over the course of Dark Souls. That's exactly what I thought too. There isn't just one chosen undead, it's part of the story that every undead exists in their own parallel universe that can intersect with each other sometimes, just like it works in gameplay. And similarly the description on Wolnir's crown suggests he was a DS2 player Plus he linked the fire, that's what makes him a lord of cinder. Likewise I guess the whole reason you have to go on your quest is because Prince Lothric decided he;d rather play Princess Maker than Dark Souls

Steve2911 posted:40 strength, 30 vigour, 30 endurance and 20 dex, with everything else loving off. Equip a great shield with high fire res, like black iron greatshield (upgrade it for higher stab +6 should be fine) and a fast weapon. Use lighting resin or take a weapon like dragonslayer axe. Now you can face tank most of lorians first phase hits and get 1 or 2 hits in for decent damage in between. You should of course still roll to avoid most attacks, but if his swings hits you, they do very little damage. swamp waste posted:Plus he linked the fire, that's what makes him a lord of cinder.

Oh i was talking about Aldrich there. p.s. eating the gods and the ritual killing the old sun king (sometimes by the new one) are both straight out of The Golden Bough, which identifies them as two of a small group of primal religious themes that crop up in folk beliefs across the world. swamp waste fucked around with this message at 21:32 on May 7, 2016 |
