Having played with a sword and board, then a dex spear user, I wanted to try something new. I decided to get in touch with my inner barbarian and use the Gyrm greataxe. I chopped the mirror knight down in four or five swings. It was great, would recommend. The only thing I miss is range - you have to get in the enemy's face with axes.

Find a weapon you like the moveset of and sink a some upgrade materials into it. There are plenty of shards and chunks to do this with, so don't be afraid to experiment. The only caveat is with twinkling and dragon bone weapons. Those materials are pretty rare in the early to mid game.

I have another question regarding infusion chat: I'm trying out a sorcerer and I've been rolling with a +7 long sword that I enchant with magic weapon, using the staff of wisdom. I've just hit 50 int and I'm wondering if there are any weapons that i should infuse?

Any tips for infusing weapons? My character has int of about 52.

kanonvandekempen posted:The huge knights are killing me more than I would like, is all. Also having to fight with your HP severely handicapped because of hollowing. The game is also quite a bit more complicated with different play styles etc, and I haven't really studied it in depth yet. I planned on just doing everything as a dude with a shield and a melee weapon, but it's not that simple. The knights have very predictable attack patterns. Three attacks, the last with a large horizontal reach. Bait out their three attacks and then attack, repeat as necessary.

Just jumping in to say one thing: I did Frigid Outskirts and killed Lud and Zallen. gently caress that area, what a terrible piece of game design. Iron passage was a cake walk compared to it. Now I can say I've killed every boss in the game, so I think I'm ready for Dark Souls 3.

Quarantine has me playing through this one more time. Something keeps me coming back to ds2, even though I've played all the other games in the series. I'm trying a faith build and I'm looking for a decent late game weapon to go with 50 faith. I'm about to tackle the dlc and I've used the mace and Dragonslayer axe up until now, but they lack reach. Any suggestions? Also, is there a chime that's better than the priest's chime for miracles?

There's a deadzone "fix" mod that might enable a better control feel for some people. I used it on my last two plays of the game and found controlling my character did improve a bit, especially when using big strength weapons. https://www.nexusmods.com/darksouls2/mods/786

It was linked to frame rate, but certain weapons have multiple collisions per swing, which also affects them disproportionately to their durability. So, even if you have a high durability weapon it could be degrading way faster than its stats imply.
