Opposing Farce posted:Actually I've been wondering about that. I'm tempted to switch it off to maximize the amount of multiplayer I get to do, but I'm worried I'll be inviting even more lag than I'm already seeing. Then again since I'm already seeing the lag it probably can't get much worse, right? Yeah, it absolutely can get worse. Don't turn it on.

Hyper Crab Tank posted:That doesn't seem to be what he's saying at all. If you want to do a gimmick invasion build - by definition probably underpowered - you're still forced to compete in the Arena versus people with carefully twinked out optimal equipment, because if you don't, you can't get any cracked eye orbs and you can't invade. That's the problem. If you could get cracked eye orbs without having to do that, you could do your underpowered gimmick invasions all day and probably lose a lot, but have fun while doing it. Bottlenecking invasions behind this super-tryhard arena thing prevents that from happening. I don't understand why this convo isn't taking into consideration buying orbs in ng+? Hyper Crab Tank posted:The problem with that is the "NG+" part. I feel like From wanted PvP at NG, but it doesn't end up working out that way. Seems pretty obvious they wanted NG pvp confined to the pvp areas, for the most part.

Hyper Crab Tank posted:The first covenant you encounter (aside from Champions) being the Way of Blue, and then the Sentinels, kind of contradicts that. They clearly felt it was important to give players a defense against being invaded early on - but why would they do that, if they intended PvP to only happen in Grave of Saints/Doors of Pharros/the Belfries? Invasions are supposed to be kind of a thing in Dark Souls, but they're also crippled at NG so it doesn't really end up working out. The covenant isn't well thought out? Why would they only allow orbs to be bought in ng+ if they wanted people to invade in ng?

Hyper Crab Tank posted:That's the point! The red/blue covenants aren't well thought out. The fact that they didn't make orbs more accessible in NG is part of the problem. They put these invasion-counterinvasion-centric covenants near the beginning of the game, and sell you on the idea that invading or defending others from invasions is the cool way to PvP while doing PvE stuff, but they didn't put enough thought into it or didn't test it enough or whatever, because what they built doesn't work out. Maybe I'm confusing your point with the other guy's point, but I'm just saying that invasions aren't gated by the arena. Its still fun, and saves you the trouble of having to buy orbs, but its not necessary.

Internet Kraken posted:Outside of NG+ they are. Well obviously, but why are you only considering NG? You think you can't do a gimmick build in NG+ or what?

ComaPrison posted:I'm looking for the others, but here's the one for durability. I don't think its ever been shown to effect dodging or parrying. Having played both this and the console version quite a bit, I certainly can't tell a difference.

Hyper Crab Tank posted:On that topic, what exactly does "lost sight of world master" mean? Several times now I've been summoned as a sunbro only for that message to immediately pop up and I get sent back. Did they poke my sign and then just run as fast as they could away from the boss door or what? It means they walked through a boss door that had no boss on the other side.

The drakekeeper sword is the best. Highest damage tied with the varangian, but with double the durability and more range than the broadsword. Still, none of them will do that much more damage than a longsword.

Jose posted:When in the game are you supposed to find the fire longsword and if its not after getting the kings ring, how do you access that area? Umm the first area of the game? Tunnel in the bottom area of the forest of fallen giants.

Lalus posted:Does reporting people on steam ever do anything? I just spent another 10 mins beating on some Russian guy who did the insta-healing thing every time he should be dead. Probably the 5th today and the crazy bastards are playing on years old steam accounts with plenty of games attached to them. Are they stupid or does cheating online not carry some kind of ban? Right now the game's servers aren't VAC protected so no.

Sanctum posted:A few months earlier everything was intentionally obfuscated, but surely now the picture must be clear. Is From really going to do the unspeakable? Is From actually splitting the multiplayer playerbase with some 'DLC'-or-what-loving-ever content? Erm... no?

Deaderinred posted:im hearing stuff about getting invaded after lighting stuff in sotfs but i havent seen anything yet? i think i lit everything i could find in no man wharf but i got nothing. Far as I can tell its only for one area and it just triggers NPC invasions. You'll know because its a really big light source and you get an on-screen message.

So Straid is selling every piece of the Forlorn set except the torso. What did I miss?

In SotFS, do the "Master of X" achievements still not count the ones from the DLCs?
