Ok, I gotta ask, is it possible to enter the Godrick fight from the back? I put off that castle until exploring most of the map and obviously didn't find the exit until beating him, so now Im curious because I literally walked right by it.

Just fought the boss that guards unlimited smithing stones 1 and 2 and it was finally a battle for just guard countering and a reward thats good as hell.

Im glad theres free respec. It being behind a capstone boss with multiple phases who has massive magic resistance is... a choiceThe Walrus posted:got to the gold fog gate in the castle with my unupgraded greatsword.. think I might just leave it and go do something other than the critical path... I don't even have any upgrade mats that aren't for like plus 5 weapons lol I think I skipped like a third of the game The difference between a +1 and +11 that Im rocking is the difference from "struggle on every boss" to "gently caress off Rannala"

Dunno what I'm missing to progress in the Raya tower but the named enemy in there can suck a fat one. gently caress yeah infinite mp teleporting. Fuuuuck you. Also while the AI bosses won't fall off cliffs anymore and seemingly no longer take fall damage, you can lure elites and named enemies into elevator pits which will kill them and give you their items. Very handy for the the knight in lower stormveil and the named guy guarding Ranalas boss door.

Funky Valentine posted:This game like making GBS threads out the +6 and above upgrade mats and refusing to give you the +1 stuff. Its really weird. In the Luria lake right by the tower on legs with a bell underneath it there is a cave whose boss guards infinite tier one and two smithing stones from the shop. The boss seems doable for anyone with a 100% physical damage block shield and a willingness to guard counter its insanely telegraphed single hit moves. They stones are expensive as hell though, 800 and 1600 respectively

He's got combos and attacks with staggered timings and magic attacks that break through defense and big gently caress off area of effect attacks and long range attacks and he can string any of these in any order he wants and fifty gorillion hp.

My favorite mini encounter so far is Midsormar town and the nearby windmill where they murdered a bunch of nobles and now dance around their corpses. Its also a bit unexpected the game bluntly spells out to you Roderika's backstory in the item description for the red hood, thats not usually how from does it.

The triangular brass shield early enemies drop is the best medium shield and is so stupidly good that greatshields feel like something you should only ever do if your maximizing strength exclusively, and even them you'll get mostly small gains.

Stalins Moustache posted:Do the golden markers leading away from the bonfires mean anything? I made my way to the southern region where I was asked to deliver a letter to a castle. I went to the castle, delivered the letter, killed the boss, got an achi, but the map still has those golden markers leading south. Did I miss anything? They don't seem to go away when you finish them, they just sort of point to the zones primary objective.

Vermain posted:similarly, every side dungeon having exactly two tilesets (stone ruins or generic caverns) with the same exact lighting and boxy neverwinter nights-style layout is really harshing my exploratory groove The fact they copy pasted the literal exact same tunnel in front of elevator with two jumps down on the left side so you can get down safely from the secret room is such a minor thing but its so glaring that every, single, mine has this exact chamber.

Books On Tape posted:How gimped am I by the heavy load debuff? I know it makes my roll slower but Should I be focusing on lighter armor or pumping endurance? Is the trade off for faster rolling worth it? Slow roll is basically useless which can be ok until you fight any of the many bosses who make shield tanking a huge pain. Further rolling gives you I-frames while getting up from a knockdown state/exit that state early whereas you will 100% die if you think "oh I'll just do like enemies do and start blocking the second I stand back up" Im baffled that the game still removes your lock on when you stab something and it lives.

Don't forget, mines are little red splotches on the map so as you uncover new zones you can always find them. Blood Slash is ridiculously unbalanced versus its cost and cast speed, that is getting nerfed there is no way that stays. Breath of the Wild is a bad game, this is at least good, even if its got some issues

I'm a dummy so I started out with a nakedboi, maybe still having just a 10 in whatever the FP stat is doesn't cover a summon, or I'd already used some through a weapon art. Theres a lot of restrictions on them, you should have enough FP default to summon all the early ones. 1) Need to have a summoning bell in your inventory 2) Need to "use" the ashes not equip it like a spell to a slot then cast using the bell 3) Can only be used in boss fights that have fog doors, and only if you have not maxed the amount of coop partners.
