I'm getting "Network status check failed" every time I try to hit the log in button. I googled it and the internet told me its basically due to overloaded servers. A lot of you guys experiencing this error?

RBA Starblade posted:I feel like I did a lot of that lmao, it took hours to even be able to level up. I thought maybe runes were just rarer than souls I dunno, I'm level 20 and am on the 2nd boss in the big castle. I have about 6 hours and killed like 3 little cave bosses. I think I am gonna level up a bit more cause this guy is rough.

I have this little red square on my status bar with a down arrow. I'm assuming it means an HP reduction of some kind, but I have no idea what's causing it. I even unequipped everything and it's still there.

So I haven't done any co op due to Xbox online being broken, and I'm wondering how the "summon pool" things work. Does it just send you to somebody's little dungeon or whatever when they use it?

Heath posted:What the gently caress are you people talking about "first boss" "second boss" I have not found any of the bosses you guys are talking about Did you talk to the guy with the mask after the tutorial area. He points you towards the castle where the first and second story bosses are.

GlyphGryph posted:I want to get this game but half the reviews on Steam are about how it is literally unplayable because of poo poo performance and stuttering so bad the combat becomes impossible. To what extent has that been a problem for you all? You know that picture of the plane with all the bullet holes? The ppl said "we should put armor in the spots where the bullet holes are in the planes that come back". But a smart guy said "no, put armor where there aren't bullet holes, because these are the planes that survived the damage, so they dont need armor where they got hit". Its the same thing with steam reviews on a game that just came out. Everyone having a good time is not posting poo poo on the internet... they are playing the video game lol. Well ok we are posting poo poo, but there's definitely a big discrepancy between the two groups.

Major spoilers in regards to the friendly npc at the start of stormveil castle: I am pretty sure I fought and killed him inside the outer ring of the leyndell city walls, in the battleground area. But like, it felt kind of out of nowhere. Did I miss a quest with him somewhere? Last time I saw him he was stamping on godricks head.

Mr. Kurtz posted:I audibly said "holy loving poo poo" when I first got there. The summons for the first guy made him pretty easy for me, cause he would get staggered. The 2nd guy had a lot more aoe and would take out my summons easily and quickly.

bike tory posted:Do the ash summons fall off in power as you progress, or do they stay fairly powerful and useful? You can upgrade them, but idk if npcs have ever been that good vs late game bosses. The best part about them is making outdoor mass encounters easier by distracting enemies.

I discovered something really funny about the mining dudes in the caves. if you walk up behind one that's digging away and collect the materials that he's poking at, he'll aggo on you. Whereas usually they completely ignore you.

Mailer posted:Jesus gently caress Radahn. I figured I was doing something wrong so I checked youtube and the only sorc run is eight minutes of a guy who has to be like level 200 getting lucky. Everything else is beefy guys in armor who can chug a heal in the middle of the spear wave and live. Best I've done is 30%. I like how his melee strikes are the same range as my spells and if he turns after you cast you die. Get on yo horse!

beep by grandpa posted:Need some help - I finally stumbled upon where to unlock using the Great Rune that I got from Godrick but I am sitting on a mountain of regular runes that I don't seem to be able to use (jump attack damage, etc) Ok so the jump attack thing is a talisman. It's basically the same thing as a ring except you unlock more talisman slots by finding these items called talisman pouches. Great runes just sit in your inventory and do nothing, until you use a Rune Arc consumable item which activates their special buff.

Gorson posted:What method are people using for weapons switching with Samurai? It seems very awkward, from 2 hand bow I'm having to press right twice on the d pad then R+Y to get back to 2 hand sword? I don't normally play this type in DS so I don't remember having to do this. The new process for switching weapons and two handing is a little cumbersome but I'm getting used to it. I don't think you need to press the d pad to go from bow to sword if the bow is in your left hand and the sword in your right. You should just be able to hit y+r1 two times. I think its two times. I did this a bunch while fighting godrick to get free bow shots at him when he did the earthquake move.

Finally ran into a boss where I had to whip out a shield to fight. I like that sort of thing about these games where sometimes the best option is to break out of whatever tactic you've been using. Sir Alonne helped me beat them, too, which was fun (not an NPC lol, a guy cosplaying as the dark souls 2 boss). What was even funnier was they used a shield too.

I was getting the Network status check failed error until Saturday night when it randomly updated to 1.02.1 or whatever. I did not do anything to get it to change. Im playing in the US if that means anything.

I'm not gonna do a magic run until I know where all the good poo poo is. Like I'm gonna need a talisman that plain buffs magic damage, which I might have already or it might be one for incantations.

Tuxedo Catfish posted:summoning is insanely strong. after initially thinking it was worthless i've found i really like the jellyfish summon -- it's stationary, but has a super long-range projectile attack that debuffs enemy damage, and it also has a shitload of health, so either a situation where you tank for your jellyfish or where your jellyfish draws aggro for you is equally good Ya I think I'm gonna put some points into mind to use some of these summons. Also the wolves helped trivialize the Raya lucaria boss.

totempoleman posted:Finally got to Margit after hearing how hard he is and somehow beat him on my third try. Is the gold summoning by his door OP, or was I overleveled (I was level 21-22ish). I'm trash at this game and expected to spend a loooong time on that boss. The npc summon helped me a lot on that fight too. I think you were probably a higher level than the majority of ppl who spent a long time on him. I'm trying to recall what level I was but I'm pretty sure I wasn't quite level 20.
