Dr. Carwash posted:Man, the Irithyll Dungeon was pretty ridiculous. The screamers, those disgusting....things...and the length made it a pretty harrowing time. I think I killed every single enemy in the entire place before getting to the bonfire in the profaned capital. Is there really no other bonfire there? If I had died, I would have been pretty pissed. There are like 3 shortcuts along the way, but yeah that's the only bonfire. It's definitely a tough area. CJacobs posted:After jumping down from the rafters you raise up the bridge/gate so that you can walk across to the other side of the cathedral; when you do, Patches will lower the gate from the other side while you're crossing it. You can then get back over there on your next life or whatever and berate him for it as usual. If you progress too far into the area before talking to Siegward in the well, it just plain doesn't happen- there's some other progress trigger that also causes it to not happen but nobody knows what it is. It's annoying this is so easy to miss. It sounds like one of the more funny parts of the game but I straight up didn't see it at all and as you said there's no clear reason why.

poptart_fairy posted:Probably a bit late with this, but dodge to his left (your right) while hugging him. His combos are fairly easy to predict so after a bit you can tell if he's going for a two or three hitter, then poke him in the butt before dodging again. Yeah I beat him since I posted that and this is pretty much what I ended up doing. He was hard but I finally got the hang of him. Punches, kicks, shoulder slams... what a dick.

Lid posted:Is it normal for the body ball in Catacombs to die? While backtracking the first one, on the stairwell, went past me, and rather than come back up it blew up at the bottom and dropped an undead bone shard. It's normal! If you look around carefully near each body ball you may be able to figure out why it happened. It's cool to figure out on your own but if you really want to know there's a skeleton with a hat somewhere in the general vicinity of each of the two balls. He runs away if you get close, but if you kill him, the ball he's controlling crashes into a wall and breaks.

Tonight I've hit what I truly would call a wall in a very late game boss. Lorian and Lothric. I can't get the hang of dodging even Lorian consistantly. His teleports gently caress me up. Once Lothric climbs on, I'm completely hosed. I finally called it for the night because I wasn't making any progress or getting any better. I'll come back to it tomorrow but does anyone have any tips?

Lid posted:Luckily I can't even find the skeleton. Strangely while backtracking theres an area I can see: in the room above the second rolling ball you're forced along one side with a tonne of pots, but theres another side that cant be reached due to a hole in the floor. However there are enemies over there so it seems like you can reach it? You can, and that's where the other skeleton is. I forget how to get there but it's a bit circuitous.

Yapping Eevee posted:I've got to say, I just had an absolute blast getting all thirty of my bones in the Grand Archives. I had someone try this on me last night. They kept running away and hanging around the Sage. A succession of three Bluecops showed up and died desperately trying to kill them. I just ignored them since they weren't really bothering me and calmly explored the area. The two encounters with the Sage were a bit dramatic and I almost killed the invader before they ran and I finished off the Sage. The last time I saw them they were hanging out on the roof near a gargoyle. I was trying to figure out how I was going to handle it, and started to backtrack to see if I'd missed any hidden paths. I had, and while I was fighting the Outrider I finally got the message that the invader had died. I think they managed to fall off a ledge somehow after all that. All in all it was a great experience and I'm glad I'm the one who came out on top in the end.

ThisIsACoolGuy posted:Can I get some very light spoilers? I'm shooting for the best ending using a spoiler free guide on how to get the "best" ending and some information is super conflicting with itself and I want to be sure I'm doing it right. Anri will die if you tell her where Horace is and leave him alive. I'm pretty sure that as long as you don't tell her she won't find him and get killed. The people saying to kill Horace probably just want to be safe. It doesn't hurt anything to kill Horace and so you might as well do it. Either way though Anri should move on to the next area.

Oh that reminds me I just saw this last night: apparently Wolnir only summons skeletons if you don't break the bridge in front of his room. I broke it every time without fail so I was really confused as to why when I was getting summoned for that fight he was bringing in skeletons constantly and I'd never seen it before. Not totally sure it's true since I haven't actually tested it, but it at least seems to fit with my experience. Always break the bridge.

If you want pyromancy to supplement a physical build in this game, it's decent, but not as good as say DS2 where I could put points only in attunement and have access to lots of different spells and use all of them for some nice extra damage. I still used great chaos fire orb in DS3, but due to how it scales from magic stats, and the way the magic bar worked it meant that there wasn't much point in trying to use a variety. I think a pure pyromancy build could be a lot more fun and I might do that in the future.

I did it, I beat the game. It's kinda nice for once to have a final boss that is (arguably) the hardest one in the game. That's never really happened before. Admittedly I'm pretty sure my personal hardest boss was the Twins or the Champ but, the final one was very close.

Mazerunner posted:So... the King, in the Archdragon peak. Figuring out how to not get him to do this was the key to this fight for me. You need to stay right in front of the dragon's head for as much of the fight as possible. Don't go underneath where it's safe. Don't run far away where it's safe. Stay right where all his normal attacks are going to try to hit you and dodge them. He'll never do that terrible flame attack. Wagrid posted:Get hit once then hammer the roll button once you get back up and you should survive it. This is what I was doing originally but man I cannot imagine having been able to beat that fight by tanking that every time. I needed my estus for the final phase. Preventing it entirely is the way to go. Mazerunner posted:Ok so I got a strat for King of the Storm- Oops I was too slow you figured it out already.

Spanish Manlove posted:Day Two of Nameless King. I can get 25% of the way through phase two. My golly that's a difficult fight for straight melee. You need to be on point with dodging or you're hosed. Are you wearing the Thunder Stoneplate ring? It adds a lot to survivability when you occasionally get tapped. With that on I actually found him substantially easier than another similar lategame boss: Champion Gundyr. Mostly because the Champ has all those fuckin punches, kicks, and shoulder slams that gently caress you up once you think you've dodged.

turtlecrunch posted:I think they are confusing the doggoats with the actual four-armed satyr demons in Smouldering Lake. The doggoats and satyrs do seem to be related, since there's doggoats in SL and in some cases they are facing satyr husks covered in some kind of fungus. Are you talking about the guys that throw/create fire balls? The other guys in the Demon Ruins are all Ghrus, they just have a lot of varieties. Some wear clothes and wield weapons and some are more feral (and then there's the kind that are weaponless but bipedal and are masters of martial arts and jumping) but they're all the same kind of creature.

If we just call them the name the game gives them instead of making up our own there doesn't need to be any confusion... They're like one of the few non humanoid enemies in the game that gets an explicit name from their weapon drops.
