Always 🫡

[nova matrix]

Sandwiches are depressing

[hazy sand]

my bios are always song lyrics

[wet plume]

Sup Kierlock Holmes

[covert marlin]

what's the difference of a Sandwich and a sandwich

[covert marlin]

when iron mouse lyrics

[hazy sand]

aw hell nah

[covert marlin]

wha wha wha

[nova matrix]

If its made with either extreme hate or love its a Sandwich

I maintain this is the way to make the best food

[covert marlin]

[elder robin]

extreme hate

how do you make a sandwich with extreme hate

[earnest knoll]

What?

[covert marlin]

okay doesnt work

[hazy sand]

imma play pirate yakuza now

[wet plume]

Nah you gotta try

SANDVICH

[covert marlin]

60 dollars forget about it

[nova matrix]

You either go insane with ingredients and it comes out a delicious monstrosity

Or you put care into it and made sure you put just the right amount of each ingredient in just the right way and order so nothing is offbalanced

Theres a specific art to deli meat

[covert marlin]

I was curious exactly as you

[chrome forge]

german

[nova matrix]

Also reubens are an abomination

[hazy sand]

honestly the way to go is just throw stuff at it

[covert marlin]

give me a top tier Sandwich rn

[elder robin]

ham

[river raven]

the first hunter

[wet plume]

The

SANDVICH

For your information, is made with love, and it's from Russia if you want to know

[hazy sand]

ham, salami, thin sliced chicken, jalapenos, onions, garlic mayo, english mustard

[hearty zenith]

Bro I entered a wrong class my mistake , this professor gave me the strongest side eye

[covert marlin]

triple protein, my goat kier

[hazy sand]

i call it the anti vegan

[covert marlin]

only thing I would change is the mayo and take dijon mustard

and some very hot chili flakes

[hazy sand]

i love garlic so garlic mayo is peak, and english mustard cause its the best type imo, i want to be burning

[wet plume]

Peanut butter, bananas, jelly

[covert marlin]

maybe a hint of honey or tomato, something to cut the sourness

[wet plume]

Creamy peanut butter too

[covert marlin]

American mustard is such a misery, no clue who came up with that

[covert marlin]

never ate a pbj

[elder robin]

you're missing out wtf

[wet plume]

Ooh...you haven't had God's glory yet

[covert marlin]

it's not a thing in europe or anywhere else except america and maybe canada

[wet plume]

So sad, too bad

[nova matrix]

2 oz hot cappi, 2 oz ham, 2oz sopressata, preferred cheese, toast it/press it, spinach, light sweet peppers, light onions, thousand islands on preferred bread

[wet plume]

Well then they need to step up their game

[covert marlin]

maybe maybe, I'll give it a try in a couple of months when I travel to the states

[nova matrix]

Italian dressing is an option over thousand islands and the peppers+onions can be put on before toasting

[elder robin]

its a thing in the UK but its peanut butter and jam not jelly 🙏

[wet plume]

Can't just belong to us Americans and Canada of course

[nova matrix]

Not the spinach though unless pressing

[fluid grotto]

Hi guys

[nova matrix]

Depending how you toast it, spinach will go flying everywhere

Its light enough hot air picks it up lmao

[covert marlin]

Holy mouthwatering sh

I need to get some food asap

damn

[covert marlin]

American people should take some steps up so they stop the obese crisis

[nova matrix]

No need, the weight loss shots are slaughtering obesity from what I hear

It is the doom guy of weight loss medicine

[covert marlin]

ozempic is something else

not healthy

[wet plume]

Gotta look at the positives twin, not everybody is attracted to food

Half the people I kind of know skip breakfast

[covert marlin]

Skipping breakfast doesn't equal being healthy and not obese

[wet plume]

Consistency

[covert marlin]

40% of american people are obese

[nova matrix]

Someone I know skips breakfast and then eats an entire pizza to themselves when I'm not looking

It actually puts me in awe

[covert marlin]

And that's even with ozempic

[nova matrix]

"Wasnt that a full 8 slices 20 min ago?"

"...yea"

Legit impressive

[pure imp]

I didnt know you can iframe chariots with raptor of the mists

[covert marlin]

easy 3000kcal triple cheese w extra meatballs and ranch on the side

but I skipped breakfast

ggs

[pure imp]

can bloodhounds step also do that?

[elder robin]

the grab attack?

[nova matrix]

Believe so yea

[elder robin]

pretty sure anything with i-frames can

[hazy sand]

Genuinely tastes so bad

[pure imp]

uhh the chariots in the dungeons not the flame ones sorry

I worded it not too well

[elder robin]

ohhh those

[pure imp]

dang that makes these dungeons marginally easier

[elder robin]

i didnt know that either tbh 😭

[topaz holly]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-hello-cat-peek-cat-door-cat-peek-door-gif-17361470248875227911

[nova matrix]

Gotta get that farmers market brown mustard

[tardy kernel]

brown mustard

[chrome forge]

mustaaaaaard

[tardy kernel]

can we ban this guy

[drowsy cedar]

no

[nova matrix]

Thats how its differentiated here

You got your garbage heinz yellow then your actually decent brown

[brittle bay]

i was so shocked when i found out i felt like a complete idiot after for not realizing it quicker 💔💔💔 they piss me off so much

[nova matrix]

And every farmers market has someone who makes their own mustard

Probably from frustration at yellow mustard

[chrome forge]

who who who

[nova matrix]

Damn now I want a chili dog

[chrome forge]

:(

[hasty kayak]

[nova matrix]

❄️ 🇪

[wary shadow]

Whats the best poise break aow in elden ring

[nova matrix]

Cragblade probably

[harsh wharf]

I was thinking Ordovis' vortex

[nova matrix]

If talking actual single smack, I like greatsword of ruin

[pure imp]

this is so good to know for the cave dungeons, I was dreading auriza (because I adore ordovis armor and his weapon aow does like megapoise damage), but now I might do it

[hot dome]

i always see a cheese stand and a fudge stand every single time

[nova matrix]

Prelates charge is a stunlock on some things like malenia

[wary shadow]

Yeah per smack cause i wanna stance break and crit the bosses

[pure imp]

and I have to do the sainted cave because of Kristoff for the steam achievement

[nova matrix]

Usually people leverage charged attacks not AoW for it tbh

[wary shadow]

Really?

[cerulean magnet]

Hello

[nova matrix]

Stamp uppercut is another option though

[wary shadow]

I thought aow did more stance dmg

[nova matrix]

Yea, things like star fist poise break margit in 3-4 charged hits iirc

This is why club and morningstar is so good too

[cerulean magnet]

War dead catacombs is awesome

[harsh wharf]

You're awesome!

[wary shadow]

Only margit tho?

[pure imp]

oh didnt know it, I saw vortex stunlocking bosses left and right, but charged attacks also do well in terms of poise, I just dislike both the weapon and the skill doing holy, because, yknow, everything is resistant except for those who live in death and a few exceptions

[nova matrix]

Thats just the easiest point of reference

It works on all bosses

Excepting maybe erdtree avatar cuz funny hitbox with fist weapons

[harsh wharf]

Fowl Tarnished
Pans to chicken with a sword

[wary shadow]

So its either star fists with crag blade,club or morning star aight

[pure imp]

I am running heavy star fists on cragblade and 70 strength, I kill the bosses before they poise break, but they also stance break really quickly with it

I remember stunning placi with like 4 or 5 charged star fists

[nova matrix]

This is whats often used for it yea

Theres other things, but these are accessible and low req

Star fists just being nuts in general

[pure imp]

then there is great stars with wild strikes, moreso an invader killer than a boss killer (imo)

[nova matrix]

Flails are an option but its just being a fancier club

[cerulean magnet]

Foul trespasser.

Send word far and wide.

[pure imp]

I only know that flail charged R2 are abysmal

[cerulean magnet]

Of the last Queen of Caria, Rennala of the Full Moon.

[pure imp]

because of the literal wind up for them

[nova matrix]

They funny tho

[pure imp]

I mean ig

[nova matrix]

Also they dont deflect when thats relevant

Nor can they be parried

[pure imp]

you mean you cant be parried with them?

[nova matrix]

Both iirc

[pure imp]

oh wow

[nova matrix]

You can smack into shields without worry of bouncing off

[pure imp]

ok thats pretty good for like moongrum ig

and some banished as well

[nova matrix]

Its nice pocket play for pvp as well against anyone using parry as a crutch

[pure imp]

latency makes parry so difficult from what I saw in pvp matches

[odd harness]

yo is there ANY kind soul that can hand me some items on playstation for a new run

[wary shadow]

Oh aight i gotta try starfists then but i HAVE to get rid of my 99 faith

[teal geode]

#how-to-access-trade-channels

[odd harness]

thanks

[wary shadow]

Or on my other save file the 85 vigor and 85 endu

[slender python]

how can i get perms for photos

[tardy kernel]

or just do flame art star fist with flaming strike

[nova matrix]

Its very doable still, people get them off all the time

[tardy kernel]

still insanely strong

[nova matrix]

The issue in ER specifically is we have twenty bazillion answers for parry spam

[pure imp]

respec to 80 strength, rest into vig/endurance, also, dont go past 80 for strength because it makes little sense to go for 99 anywhere (the point of diminishing returns really sets in past 60/80 for most stats)

[tardy kernel]

occult is better for crag star fist

[nova matrix]

They took one look at us in ds3 fight clubs parry spamming eachother and said "cut that crap out"

[teal geode]

Send some messages and our bot will automatically give you the image perms role

[pure imp]

I mean ig you get used to it

[pure imp]

but I would need arcane levels for that no? heavy attunement gives B scaling, so I thought that would do well enough, (I killed ||alexander|| as he said "I am-"

I had to reup on cragblade otherwise he would not have uttered a word

poor guy

[tardy kernel]

yh you would go 80arc for occult

it get roughly double the bleed while only lacking a small bit of ar

[pure imp]

whats the scaling on arc for fists?

[wary shadow]

On my faith one i wont respec rn because im trying to use faith weapons

[pure imp]

like C?

[tardy kernel]

b

[wary shadow]

True

[pure imp]

oh wow, +25?

[tardy kernel]

yh

its like 30ar lower than heavy affinity with double the bleed

way more consistent bleed procs

[pure imp]

well time for arc respec, does it hold up in dlc?

[tardy kernel]

ofc

[pure imp]

seems good then

I guess white mask and exultation make much more sense as well

[wary shadow]

On my main im almost maxed and lowkey radanh is a bigger pain in ng+

[limber glade]

its pretty good ye

[pure imp]

wait white mask and lob exultation stack right?

[tardy kernel]

yes

you can go a step further and add sacred bloody flesh if u rlly want

[pure imp]

god damn, tasty damage

[tardy kernel]

its a pain in the ass to get tho

[pure imp]

is that a consumable?

[tardy kernel]

yeah

[sinful orbit]

Scadutree level for bayle?

[harsh wharf]

Frenzyflamed everywhere

[tardy kernel]

techincally 20 in terms of scaling
anything over 12 is fine

[pure imp]

I dont think I ever used a consumable throughout my playthrough (Im the "Ill use it next ng" guy)

[harsh wharf]

10-15 he's pretty hard

[harsh wharf]

I like throwing ruin fragments at other players mid pvp

[pure imp]

I remember being told that using howl of shabriri makes you take more damage, is that true?

[tardy kernel]

yes

[harsh wharf]

Yuh

[pure imp]

throw a rainbowstone at them

dang, if only it didnt :_((

[tardy kernel]

+25% damage
+30% damage taken

[edgy grove]

omg its john nightreign

[wary shadow]

I beat radanh with a poker because he pmo

[vital crane]

Who wanna trade I need shard of Alexander and magic scorpion charm

[tardy kernel]

#how-to-access-trade-channels

[teal geode]

#how-to-access-trade-channels

[pure imp]

you get deaths poker from the death rite in caelid right?

[tardy kernel]

yeah

you can cheese it if u rlly want to

[pure imp]

is it good in this game as well? I saw it shred in NR

[tardy kernel]

its amazing

[pure imp]

nah sacred blade will carry me

[native stream]

Exceptionally good

[heady flower]

Who up 👀

[pure imp]

I have faith in sacred star fists with sacred blade

pun intended

[native stream]

star fist can't take sacred blade methinks

sacred order works though

[pure imp]

dang, where do I get it?

I hope not capital, cus...ash

[grim flume]

ok so first sinner took 2 tries but widow took 50

[native stream]

its in Altus but not the capital itself

[tardy kernel]

u will be fine without it tbh

[native stream]

its like far south west next to a lake, check a map

[pure imp]

ok, you dont need stat requirements for any aow, right? dont wanna respec for orders blade and stuff

[native stream]

You only need to meet the weapons stat req so you're good

[pure imp]

oh in that case that should be fine

[native stream]

since every class can wield star fist with no stat adjustments anyway

[edgy grove]

You cant put sacred blade on star fists

[native stream]

🐌

late to the party smh smh

[crisp cove]

Not with that attitude you can't

[pure imp]

I also have like 24 faith for if I may infuse it with holy as well

[native stream]

Probably worth it yeah they're weak to holy on top of being undead

[pure imp]

that should be enough

I still dont understand why revanants arent holy weak

but heal disintegrates them

[edgy grove]

Sacred order is only good for a select few enemies i wouldnt recommend

[hazy sand]

o/

[pure imp]

the death rite bird in question

[teal geode]

its good for everything

[hazy sand]

Hi Eden and best

[edgy grove]

oh yeah it’s effective against those

[harsh wharf]

Killer fish
Killer fish from San Diego

[modern ginkgo]

hi

[teal geode]

https://tenor.com/view/uma-musume-manhattan-cafe-hello-wave-gif-25539603

[pure imp]

I wonder if I can one shot mariners with that setup, like without any other prebuffs just like vow and FGMS

or at least the limgrave one

[harsh wharf]

I need more deathroot

[pure imp]

guys should I activate a great rune? I have like 50 arcs 🤔

[harsh wharf]

Yah
It stays until you die, may aswell

[elder robin]

use mohg's great rune 100%

[harsh wharf]

Shh

[pure imp]

ah yes the pve player using the pvp rune

[elder robin]

hell yeah??

[edgy grove]

What level are you

[pure imp]

honestly imo, mohgs rune has the sickest design imo

[pure imp]

uhh, 160-ish? definitely a lot

[edgy grove]

Use radahns

Or morgotts if you like vigor i guess

[elder robin]

i really wanna do another elden ring playthrough but everytime I get to liurnia I get bored and quit 😭

[pure imp]

oh it raises hp fp and stam a bit right?

[edgy grove]

So real i just do challenge runs

[elder robin]

i really should continue my RL1 run

furthest I got was rennala, and then got bored and quit again

liurnia is cursed for me I swear

[edgy grove]

late game bosses are fun rl1

[pure imp]

I mean you could get dectus halves, sprint past raya, and go to altus if you want

[signal otter]

Is there any new news on the Elden Ring Tarnished edition?

[elder robin]

I think I always do but I go for rennala for her great rune

[edgy grove]

the two shardbearers i always fight for leyndell access is mohg and radahn 😌

[elder robin]

maybe if I try again I'll do rykard 😭😭

[pure imp]

what I like to do is sprint to churb of inhibition (or irina), after killing godrick, and get purebloodknights medal through killing magnus

[pure imp]

so you can go dlc like 3 hours in, thats cool

[edgy grove]

fromsoft try not to sneak a storm ruler into every game challenge level impossible

[elder robin]

is there a storm ruler in DS1 or 2 I lowkey don't remember

[edgy grove]

no but its been in everything after ds3

[elder robin]

cant believe we got one for ED augur of all bosses.

[pure imp]

not that I would know, I think demon souls did?

[edgy grove]

made a horrible boss even more boring somehow 😐

[sick storm]

ye it's from demon's souls

[edgy grove]

well thats just gimmick boss game ofc it has a storm ruler

[pure imp]

normal is better than ED imo

[pulsar ivy]

I just beat Malenia for the first time :3

[elder robin]

I swear they boosted augur's rates too like omg 😭 I keep getting both normal and everdark version in deep 4 over and over and over

its so boring

[elder robin]

yippee!!!

[sick storm]

it's called storm ruler because u use it on storm king in demon's souls, idk why they kept the name for ds3 and nightreign

[edgy grove]

nostalgia or smth idk

[sick storm]

valid

[pure imp]

Im gonna buckler malenia today (at least phase 1)

[edgy grove]

bro i gavent gotten anything except libra or dlc

like let me fight everything else wtf

[elder robin]

everdark libra is just a guaranteed loss for me ngl I cannot figure out how to get damage done when im being ganked by 14 NPCs without trying to prock rot or poison 😭

[safe hemlock]

Woke up early in the morning to do one thing

Skyrim modding hahahaha... HAHAHAHA!

[edgy grove]

i always always play rev for ed libra and if i manage to find elden stars its gg easy

and now summons scale with don 😍

[safe hemlock]

Also my mom's birthday theres that too

[elder robin]

is elden stars good against ed libra and why

[edgy grove]

hes weak to holy, and once you cast it it just does a really really good amount of passive tick damage to him while you focus on the summons

[elder robin]

good to know

glad I recently started trying out rev 🙏

[edgy grove]

rev is goated

[uneven hedge]

Me when something I worked on suck ass
But all I have to say is that it's "unique" and "complex" and "unconventional"
For people to like it 🥹 ✌️

[crude sphinx]

Does Boggart dissapear from where he sells crab if you burn the erdtree or beat the game?

[pure imp]

god I really hate haligtree and Ilim, what a masochistic design haha

[chrome forge]

he mighgt be at the water near draconic tree

[crude sphinx]

Yeah, but was wondering if he moved after Maliketh, or if he stayed if you didn't progress Dung's quest

[chrome forge]

i thjink its just if you buy prawns im not sure tho

[frosty spindle]

so glad that commander nial a sick and epic boss gets ruined by banished knights🔥

[pure imp]

we do love bewitching branches

[crude sphinx]

Well, I just bought like 500 crabs just in case

[chrome forge]

he sucks either way

[pure imp]

I mean you should probably kill him for his bell bearing (Im like almost certain he gives both crab and prawn)

and his balls of course

[simple zealot]

hello

[crude sphinx]

When he is Leyndell?

[simple zealot]

how do i join/create a voice chat here in the server?

[teal geode]

#how-to-access-vc-channels

[simple zealot]

thank you

[pure imp]

if he sells crab in leyndell, killing him should be good enough, if you progress dung eaters questline, he is dead eitherway

[lavish pier]

I think he is pretty cool

[pure imp]

I would inform myself more about it, but I dont use consumables so I never found particular use for boggart

[frosty spindle]

nah hes tuff

[crude sphinx]

Alright, does bell bearings like that carry over between ng cycles? Or is it just the smithing stones and spirit ash upgrade material ones?

[pure imp]

that I dont know, I think it does but dont take my word for it

wait does it?

[crude sphinx]

Smithing stones and such does, but I am not sure about NPC specific ones

[pure imp]

fextra says only certain ones

gimme a sec Ill see which ones

those from NPCs and merchants do not carry over

so it makes sense to buy 699 for crab and prawn before going over to ng+

[crude sphinx]

ait

tysm for checking it out for me

[pure imp]

no worries, fextra is like trustworthy on most things, especially not so niche and more trivial ones

recommended tears for general bosses? I am thinking of greenburst and like something else but idk what

[gray wraith]

Im doing a challange kind of thing, when i try to defeat the Godskin Apostle in caelid, only with parrys

And i got him pretty down this time

Like he only had 30% of his health left

[brazen shuttle]

It's good for item locations, that's about it

[pure imp]

dang

[brazen shuttle]

Opaline hardtear and whichever elemental one benefits you

If you're not using elemental damage then I would say either successive attack tear or stance break tear

[chrome forge]

worst way to fight top 10 fromsoft boss

[pure imp]

didnt even know there is a successive tear, you know how long it lasts?

[brazen shuttle]

You get it from the putrid avatar in consecrated snowfield

I think it lasts at least 30 seconds maybe a minute

[pure imp]

well I am going on an avatar/tree spirit killing spree, so thats good to know

[brazen shuttle]

Generally successive for dex and stance for strength but there are some fast strength weapons and slow dex weapons

So it just depends which you'd rather have

[pure imp]

parrying apostles is one of the harder/hardest ones to parry (imo at least) nobles are really easy to parry and thus it is more rewarding, but if you can parry an apostle consistently, you are a chad

oh yeah I should probably get stance tear

[chrome forge]

erm lol

fighting him normally is harder

[brazen shuttle]

Nah I suck at parrying apostle

But I'm pretty good at the normal fight

[pure imp]

I find parrying nobles quite easy, like I remember when I went into a NR round DoN, evergaol was a Noble at level 1, I just parried him 5 times in a row deathless

Apostles are more difficult to read if you want to parry them

[brazen shuttle]

Buckler parry makes every parryable boss easy though

[inner gyro]

A lot of people might hate DS3 due to the boss fights itself, but you have to admit that the game offers quite possibly the best armor sets in the trilogy.

[gray wraith]

Fighting him normally is just rotten breath, then ordovis's R2 spam to stance break

[chrome forge]

unfair test since you didnt start off learning by parrying him

[brazen shuttle]

True

[pure imp]

yeah but in gelmir I used a medium, also buckler actually doesnt gives more parry frames, just less startup

[chrome forge]

you dont have to do that if it makes it unfun btw

[brazen shuttle]

Most people say ds3 has the best bosses in the series generally, it's the exploration that is bad

Also DS2 has the best armour sets imo

[gray wraith]

I do have fun with that

But ds1 made me love parrying, and i just want a challange

[chrome forge]

ds2 has the best exploration but ds3 has solid bosses and solid exploration

[pure imp]

the best parry is carian retaliation with like 4 more iframes than normal parry? I have to look into the vid again

[chrome forge]

you want a challenge you say

how challenging

[gray wraith]

A challange thats doable for me, i have huge skill issues

[edgy grove]

ds2!!!!

[inner gyro]

DS3 isn’t really considered an exploration game.

[edgy grove]

my fav

[pure imp]

do you find parrying unfun? I find it one of the more satisfying fighting methods for humanoid enemies

[chrome forge]

neither is the trilogy

[gray wraith]

Also, im ng+3 with this apostle, so he hits pretty hard if i mess up

[pure imp]

especially crucibles

god damn, parrying crucibles is like peanut butter and jelly levels of satisfaction

[edgy grove]

And bbh

[gray wraith]

Parrying Black Knights tho 🤤

[brazen shuttle]

I mean none of them are specifically exploration games, but DS1 and DS2 have pretty fun exploration still

[pure imp]

parrying margit is aura

[brazen shuttle]

DS3 exploration is deciding whether to do cathedral first or second

[pure imp]

I think you can parry morgott as well, I usually kill him before remembering I can parry, because he is a pushover

[tough acorn]

should i do ng+ before going in the dlc? im gonna buy it in 1 week and theres nothing to do in the base game

[pure imp]

poor morgott

[edgy grove]

Parrying libar is also amazing

[chrome forge]

i think its boring since it reduces a boss moveset to 1-3 attacks that they spam after each parry, most my fun comes from strafes, ducks, jumps, and having to learn big movesets so parrying is slop to me but i can see how its satisfying i like parrying basic enemies

[mint forge]

30 tries on radahn should i ropemax

[terse ridge]

yo guys im new to soulslike games and started elden ring im struggling on where to go rn im lvl 49

[chrome forge]

he needs more defence 💔

[chrome forge]

which

[tame blade]

Is bleed build good

[edgy grove]

ropemax?

[mint forge]

consort

[gray wraith]

Its the best build type

[edgy grove]

No build is best btw

[gray wraith]

Did you defeat Godrick or Rennala?

[gray wraith]

Why do you lie

[terse ridge]

godrick

[tame blade]

What build should i play for a second play through

[pure imp]

I mean ig, rng rarely is in your favor for an enemy to always bust out a parriable attack, so you are bound to both dodge and parry, which is exceedingly difficult to master. can I do it? not really, I mean for crucible knights, I jump the stomp, tail sweep and ordovis charge (when he flies)

[inner gyro]

Every single time I fight a boss in this game I stun lock them but somehow manage to miss the critical hit.

[gray wraith]

Try to explore Liurnia of the lakes

[gray wraith]

Me too

[terse ridge]

i somehow managed to reach the north part of the map and i struggle with every boss/enemy

[outer sun]

Exploring is the key to elden ring

[chrome forge]

its not exceeding difficult do you just notice the attack

[tame blade]

What build should i do for second play through

[oblique wren]

Hate revenants

[pure imp]

well misreading an attack is not as rare as it seems, I sometimes try parrying siluria stomp, which makes me look like an idiot

[timid echo]

interesting pfp

[pure imp]

or margit dagger

[terse ridge]

i use a blood build with the nagakita from that npc under the bridge

[oblique wren]

I hate kier

[gray wraith]

There is that big castle thing, try to go there

In the middle of the lake

[surreal wharf]

Hi

[terse ridge]

i got cooked at the caria manor by those hand things\

[gray wraith]

Yup, worst enemies in the game
At least they arent really common

[tame blade]

I hate elden beast

[oblique wren]

And I can't use a nigel farage slander pfp because he's titled nigel führage

[terse ridge]

bro what are some tips for that boat mariner boss

[oblique wren]

Okay Adolf 😭

Holy

[gray wraith]

Only go to caria manor, after the academy, its south east, to caria manor, you have definitely saw it

[terse ridge]

ok im going there rn

[gray wraith]

Yup
Worse than bed of chaos

[surreal wharf]

.

[tame blade]

Elden beast is designed to rage bait

[edgy grove]

💀

[pure imp]

im sorry, bed of chaos?

[edgy grove]

tell me youve never fought bed of chaos without telling me youve never fought bed of chaos

[edgy grove]

Dark souls

[chrome forge]

loretta worse

[oblique wren]

The academy and Stormveil are both optional trust

[pure imp]

ik, Im just a littel flabbergasted

[alpine violet]

I want a new elden ring dlc so bad ;-; there isn't enough stuff in the game imo

[gray wraith]

Dude, i finnished ds1 2 days ago, fym?

[edgy grove]

shes fine

[terse ridge]

guys should i only upgrade my fvigor, endurance and strength i use bleed nagakima and bloodhound fang build

[gray wraith]

Bed of Chaos at least saves progress

[chrome forge]

worst boss oat

[oblique wren]

They should make all weapons an achievement

[strange matrix]

ng+4 is absolute hell an archer fire golem got me to 1 hit with 5 stomps

[alpine violet]

Spelling rip💔

[hazy sand]

Bed of chaos wasn’t that bad for me

[inner gyro]

Bed of Chaos is literally just a gimmick boss.

[edgy grove]

Idk what trauma you have but shes not even bad

[hazy sand]

Managed to do it in 2 attempts

[flint halo]

DS1 is so damn annoying

[timid echo]

ha

[chrome forge]

she is literally the worst boss ever

[gray wraith]

Ds1 dlc is peak tho

[thin kite]

@edgy grove, i killed all main story bosses and most side bosses with no
summons but caved and used a mimic +10 for lord of blood. are you disappointed in me… 🙁

[oblique wren]

Ds2 runbacks are quite annoying

[pure imp]

the humble mist noble

[hazy sand]

It’s alright

[gray wraith]

I can agree, only elden beast is worse

[alpine violet]

Depending on what all weapons includes that would be complicated and take more than one playthrough

[flint halo]

I need to beat lies of P

[oblique wren]

Ds3 has the best runbacks and is less sloggy

[gray wraith]

The dlc bosses are better than any basegame boss

[chrome forge]

mist noble sucks but you can just kill him so hes not annoying or tedious

[edgy grove]

Not disappointed as long as you had fun

[hazy sand]

Tbf all achievements already takes more than one

[unborn olive]

how do i go through the tomb of the giants without a torch

[hazy sand]

The bar is inside the earth

[oblique wren]

The endings

[tame blade]

Elden beast is the worst

[brazen shuttle]

Remembrance bosses sure but metyr is worse than almost every base game boss and the NPC bosses suck too

[timid echo]

elden beast aint even that bad

[hazy sand]

Ds1

[oblique wren]

Okay Adolf

[brazen shuttle]

Oh

[timid echo]

ppl js be hating

[void forum]

Fr

[brazen shuttle]

Yeah ds1 DLC bosses are better

[terse ridge]

im only upgrading my vigor endurance and strength

[strange matrix]

banned

[oblique wren]

Artorias is so good

[thin kite]

loretta 5th try no summons first play through. radagon/elden beast kicked my bum a while. now im trying malenia. about10 tries in. mohg blood lord uses summon cause i got too angry and idk i just caved

[hazy sand]

He’s alright

[oblique wren]

Lore

[inner gyro]

All the Dark Souls run backs feel like I’m walking from Alaska all the way to Serbia.

[terse ridge]

is this good for bleed build

[tame blade]

Godfrey was the best boss

[hazy sand]

I need to,play more nr

[pure imp]

his new moveset in NR is awesome

[oblique wren]

Ds1

[chrome forge]

you hate loretta right?

[edgy grove]

Hes ok, hes too easy. Im glad they buffed him in nr

[strange matrix]

so ez I beat him second try on my first playthrough lol

[hazy sand]

Nr just made me think he’s more meh icl

[tame blade]

Nahh

[thin kite]

she was easy, idk if i hate her? cool boss. i hate elden beast

[tame blade]

Do arcane

[terse ridge]

wtf does arcane even do

[hazy sand]

When he’s put in a game of actual good bosses he’s not as good lol

[oblique wren]

Having the ds1 guys in nightreign removes some of the impact

[chrome forge]

wow i love a boss that spams a 20 second long combo that isnt even hard/ fun to dodge

[oblique wren]

Freja

[inner gyro]

What’s wrong with Loretta?

[strange matrix]

arcane is so annoying when you need it for a weapon

[chrome forge]

she is beyond ass

[oblique wren]

She's also there

[alpine violet]

Yeah but it's way more expected. Those are endings not random little items scattered all over. And keep in mind you'd have to duplicate remembrance and farm for the celebrant weapons and things like magma blade. And forbid you mess up a questline a little bit and forget to grab magma whip candlestick or something. Just I don't think it would be fun to make that an achievement

[pure imp]

I mean yes but at least some of them are remastered

[terse ridge]

i started elden ring as my first soulslike game

[tame blade]

It increase chance of bleed

[hazy sand]

He just sorta feels like a walking wall, doesn’t do much and has stupid high health or resistances

[edgy grove]

Not how bleed works btw

[oblique wren]

Bloodborne was my first

[tame blade]

Vigor just increase ur health

[inner gyro]

I mean I defeated her first try so honestly it really doesn’t matter.

[terse ridge]

ok

[terse ridge]

isnt that goated

[tame blade]

U in late game

[oblique wren]

Vigor build

[chrome forge]

then he hits you with that iframe ignore.. why people complain about pcr's non impactful iframe ignore but allow artorias

[terse ridge]

idk bro

[alpine violet]

I really thought morgott was a hard fight when underleveled but I went to him at level 60 and fought him with dual spears and it wasn't all that bad

[oblique wren]

I've got 28 vigor in ds2 and adp 29

[tame blade]

The last boss u beat

[inner gyro]

Rennala was a boring fight.

[marsh tulip]

Whats the difference between red and yellow lightning

[gray wraith]

Yey got him to half hp again

Apostle in second phase does not really want to do his parryable attacks

[chrome forge]

yellow scales on dragon cult and red is ancient dragon

[oblique wren]

One is from dragon

[gray wraith]

Its just annoying af

[strange matrix]

ngl magic is so ass

[gray wraith]

It can be pretty fun imo

[pure imp]

I didnt even know pcr had an ignore

[marsh tulip]

So just different seals

[edgy grove]

People just make excuses because they dont want to admit theyre bad at anything

[strange matrix]

i keep missing comet azur

[alpine violet]

I thought the same until I fought her with intentionally bad weapons. 50+ attempts😭 it was fun though, gave some honor to the fight

[cerulean magnet]

?

[hazy sand]

Cause it’s pretty bad lol

[cerulean magnet]

???

[tame blade]

Bleed is goated

[gray wraith]

Maybe dont use it on mobile enemies?

[marsh tulip]

Are you supposed to level your seals

[chrome forge]

yes??

[marsh tulip]

Does it affect armament incantations

[thin kite]

how much more difficult is starscourge to maleina, just gauging difficulty. (ik u can get more power in sote, but like still with that)

[inner gyro]

That depends what magic build you use. If you just spam Comet Azur, then you’re really not trying to play the game at all.

[oblique wren]

No

[marsh tulip]

Like electrify

[edgy grove]

Yes why tf would you not 😭

[hazy sand]

uses one attack that’s barely good

calls the entire class bad

[marsh tulip]

Or buffs

[strange matrix]

because it's right

[oblique wren]

It only affects actual damage spells

[marsh tulip]

Don't use offensive incantations

[gray wraith]

Only if you wanna be offensive

For buffs, you dont need to upgrade

[pure imp]

no, just incants that do damage

[oblique wren]

Not percentage buffs

[chrome forge]

its the attakc he does that lifts you into the air if you get hit by it and he slams down, the slam down ignores iframes but never hit me so not impactful

[marsh tulip]

Does it increase durations atleast?

[chrome forge]

Wrong

[alpine violet]

Kind of real. I think it's somewhat awkward to use, it's a pain in pvp. Pve doesn't encourage spell comboing so you just spam one spell and then you are limited to a one attack moveset, I go crazy theb

[cerulean magnet]

You foul mouthed trespassers

[gray wraith]

Why do ppl think comet azur is good man?

[strange matrix]

strength build better

[chrome forge]

hp spells scale off incantscalingiirc

[cerulean magnet]

You dare mouth I'll of the last queen of Caria?

[chrome forge]

it kills 2 bosses very fast

[marsh tulip]

Because they're not on sword of night and flame

[hazy sand]

They see a mohg clip and think it’s good

[gray wraith]

No, but there is a talisman that does that

[marsh tulip]

The one you get from gowry?

[hazy sand]

What’s the other boss other than mohg

[pure imp]

you mean the side swipe that sends you up followed by the slam down? I think you can dodge the side swipe, its only if you mistime the swipe where the slam down is inevitable

[marsh tulip]

Does it increase black flame blade duration

[pure imp]

artorias lion claw ignores iframes from the getgo

[gray wraith]

Its in Crumbling Farum azula, calles Old Lords talisman

[marsh tulip]

Loretta's Slash?

[chrome forge]

godrick

[pure imp]

pcr swipe into downstrike

[marsh tulip]

Oh that I think it only adds a second or so

[hazy sand]

Ok that makes sense but Tbf a gust of wind kills Godrick

[strange matrix]

how do I use flameart properly when I use flameart with 75 faith it does less dmg than heavy

[gray wraith]

30% more duration to be exact

[marsh tulip]

If I'm making a lightning build do I need any stats besides Dex to be soft capped

[inner gyro]

Dark Moon Greatsword + Staff and any other spells besides Comet Azur builds are the only exception in my opinion.

[edgy grove]

I’ve literally never gotten hit by that wtf

[sick storm]

impossible to kill without comet azur and rl200 imo

[alpine violet]

Strength is almost always better because 50% 2h bonus. Soo much easier to build around. Only thing that bothers me about this is that it's so confusing to use most of the somber weapons with multiple scalings across different stats so pure strength or dex while sticking to infusions and the few sombers that scale with them feels mandatory

[hazy sand]

Even 200 is a bit tough

[muted sage]

Strength is goated,

[marsh tulip]

SoNaF >>>

[chrome forge]

yes thats what i said. the slam down after u dodge the swipe ignores iframes but its so irrelevant cus it doesnt hit you if u dodge the way u dodge every other attack he has

[chrome forge]

exactly

[marsh tulip]

Is red lightning stronger than regular lightning

[hazy sand]

I think it’s just visual and lore

[violet heath]

Astel

[gray wraith]

Astel deserves it tho

[pure imp]

I remember gundyr does that as well, I never heard anyone complain about that one

[marsh tulip]

Screw that guy

[sick storm]

please don't use comet azur on astel

[marsh tulip]

The one boss I had to actually lock in for

[strange matrix]

is dex better than strength I see people hitting crazy clips with it while strength requires me to buff 500 times just for it to run out again

[sick storm]

u will get insta sniped

[violet heath]

No

[gray wraith]

Depends on build

[hazy sand]

Ah yes the magic attack on the magic resisting enemy

[sick storm]

please don't use comet azur at all actually

[alpine violet]

No. It can indicate higher area of effect on use like the pots but for weapon buffs and such it is exactly the same

[muted sage]

Imo str>

[sick storm]

oh ok fair

[inner gyro]

This. 👆

[chrome forge]

No, gundyr only follows it up when u get hit by the first

[violet heath]

Dodge the first blast, then you comet azur,

If you're gonna at all

[muted sage]

It's iconic

[gray wraith]

Night Comet tho. That thing is soo good

[pure imp]

unless you do mohg

[marsh tulip]

? He has no moves that hit you at midrange besides the tail slam and beam, and he doesn't use beam unless you're pretty far away

[pure imp]

which is the exact same thing with pcr?

[chrome forge]

ur not really fighting him them

[marsh tulip]

If we exclude the meteors ig

[muted sage]

I'm pretty sure Night Shard would still kill faster

[alpine violet]

What are you having to buff with?

[chrome forge]

its not the same

[pure imp]

I wild strikes him ususally

[brazen shuttle]

No stat on its own is better than another, it's specific builds and weapons that are

[sick storm]

cacao and this guy are the only people allowed to use it.

[marsh tulip]

Alot of dex weps have bleed so theres that ig

[chrome forge]

pcr ALWAYS does the sweep into slam whether the sweep hit or not

[strange matrix]

golden vow howl of shabiri flame grant me strength seppku

[gray wraith]

I wish carian slicer did stance damage

[hazy sand]

World discovers multiple things are viable and not 1 is the best

[inner gyro]

When I first played this game, I genuinely thought that the Dark Moon Greatsword was the coolest weapon ever in this game.

[sick storm]

fairly sure he can do both if ur in comet azur range, he can also jump out of it, tp out of it etc etc

[violet heath]

Is it not

[chrome forge]

howl and flame dont stac

[pure imp]

oh thats what you mean, well does it matter? I never got hit by the second one anyway, its just a free damage window

[violet heath]

Oh sorry, Rellana's Twinblades

[hazy sand]

Fire knights greatsword is the coolest actually

[brazen shuttle]

Howl and flame are both body buffs they don't stack

[strange matrix]

should I remove flame it always ends as soon as I'm about to hit the boss

[chrome forge]

oh my god thats what im saying. IT DOESNT MATTER yet people complain about it

[gray wraith]

Rallying standard is lowk better than golden vow

[muted sage]

Wing of Astel is cool

[hazy sand]

Flame lasts for 2 minutes I believe

[strange matrix]

can I use both?

[gray wraith]

No

[chrome forge]

howl better if you dont mind the defence down

[muted sage]

Nothing lowkey about that cuh

[hazy sand]

So idk what you are doing for 2 minutes before hitting the boss lol

[marsh tulip]

We all know sword of night and flame is the coolest

[inner gyro]

Winged Greathorn?

[strange matrix]

summons

[brazen shuttle]

Golden vow better if you on a faith build anyway

[alpine violet]

Howl of shabriri and flame grant me strength don't stack btw. They are both body buffs. What weapon are you using?

[chrome forge]

practically useless unless ur doing 1 shot

[hazy sand]

Summons do not that that long 😭

[pure imp]

oh ok, why complain about people complaining, then?

[strange matrix]

dual giant crusher +24

[violet heath]

Golden Vow, Howl, Magic Shrouding Cracked Tear, Hidden Cerulean Tear, Terra Magica, Lusat's Staff

[inner gyro]

One Shot builds are garbage.

[marsh tulip]

Was Radagon always Marika or did they fuse or smth

[south ledge]

[pure imp]

👀

[violet heath]

I think you might be able to dual wield Lusat's and get the benefit from both

[strange matrix]

they always run out the buffs immediately

[violet heath]

Kiki how could you

[hazy sand]

Lucky they only need one shot before the buff to run out lol

[violet heath]

You said Lucky and I got excited I thought Lucky was here 😔

[hazy sand]

Sounds like setting up comet azur, Ew

[marsh tulip]

Oneshotting <<< having an epic fight to the death

[hazy sand]

I wish

[violet heath]

It is, cuz we were talking about Comet Azure,

[inner gyro]

It takes longer to do the buff rotation than the actual fight itself.

[violet heath]

Weren't we?

[chrome forge]

it was an artorias iframe ignore and pcr iframe ignore discussion and i said its weird that i see no one talking about arty iframe ignore but ppl complain about pcr

[hazy sand]

Maybe, we are talking about like, multiple builds

[violet heath]

Radagon was always Marika

[strange matrix]

I lwky need a good dex build

[alpine violet]

That's a lot of equip load😭 and how are you using seppuku on giant crusher? Just make sure you have 80 strength while using those for best results. I don't know what level you are but I'm assuming it's higher because you have 2 of a weapon you can only get once per playthrough

[edgy grove]

arty is a new one

[whole walrus]

artorias iframe ignore is rhe slam down right

[chrome forge]

flip yes

[marsh tulip]

How does that make sense

[south ledge]

i doubt anyone is using oneshot setups to 'skip' the fight. most people have already done the fight in the 'usual' way and are just messing around and pushing the game mechanics

[hazy sand]

The iframe ignore is annoying

[whole walrus]

i think people just dont realize it

[strange matrix]

I'm using seppuku on cane sword because it has less weight

[violet heath]

Curved Swords, Katana's, Reapers

[south ledge]

at least the ones ive mostly interacted with which is not a lot of people.

[pure imp]

I mean I dont see anyone complaining about pcr, but it sounds stupid enough to come from the community

[sick storm]

please don't spell it like that

[violet heath]

What

[hazy sand]

I can’t spell

[whole walrus]

the best spell in the game

[brazen shuttle]

The better spelling because it's Azure like the British prog rock band

[sick storm]

no it's not that

[sick storm]

noni understood

[south ledge]

isnt it azur

[chrome forge]

musk

[inner gyro]

If you’re not struggling, then you’re not playing the game right.

[sick storm]

that's how John Twitter spells it

[alpine violet]

You are using this to proc lord of bloods exultation and white mask?

[whole walrus]

correctomundo

[south ledge]

no e at the end. azure is a color

[ebon forge]

[violet heath]

👎👎👎👎

[strange matrix]

yes

[marsh tulip]

They made it sound like he was a separate entity because he actually interacts with Marika

[hazy sand]

Why pointlessly struggle

[pure imp]

you spelled stars of ruin wrong I think 👀

[sick storm]

why don't more of the experts realise this? are they secretly bad at the game?

[brazen shuttle]

The game is meant to be hard but have ways to make it less hard

[violet heath]

He does, Radagon and Marika are different but they're not

It's like, a multiple personalities thing

[chrome forge]

star fist mad overrated lowk the worst in its class

[whole walrus]

yeah start rocking vets prosthesis

[pure imp]

thats enough bait for today

[ebon forge]

pure ragebait

[chrome forge]

i actually like that weapon alot

[marsh tulip]

How did they have two children together, and why wasn't radagon a thing until more recent times

[violet heath]

Say it with me now kids

The point of a game is to have fun ✨✨✨✨

[chrome forge]

i used it for my very first dreglord encounter

[violet heath]

They just did vro

[sick storm]

no.

[ebon forge]

prosthesis is nice I played with it for a while

[chrome forge]

i never struggle playing elden ring

[gray wraith]

Is golden parry better than buckler?

[violet heath]

Don't think so much on it, just accept it for what it is and you're fine

[chrome forge]

No

[whole walrus]

yes

[sick storm]

why have fun when u can get mad at pixels on ur screen

[chrome forge]

what i thought i got nerfed?

[whole walrus]

oh wait golden

[inner gyro]

That’s the entire point for all games.

[sick storm]

did they revert golden parry

[alpine violet]

Ah ok, yeah. Anyway do you think you just want to play as a faster weapon? That is what it sounds like you want. Fyi weapons like nagakiba which are stereotypical dex weapons actually do better 2h on strength than they do on dex. Just so you know strength has options too. Dex has slightly different infusable options and some different somber weapons but idk

[violet heath]

Go away noni

[chrome forge]

hahahan noni you silly bily

[sick storm]

actually that's a good point, does nr use pre nerf golden parry

[marsh tulip]

Ts what I mean it makes no sense, I always thought Radagon was just inside Marika to protect her and it wasn't always the case

[sick storm]

i could test it myself but i'm very lazy

[whole walrus]

i should grab my glasses

[chrome forge]

it uses the old axe r2 speed which is horrible

[violet heath]

Exactly, that is the point :D, so why struggle if that's not fun for you? You cheese that boss if that's what you wanna do buddy <3

[strange matrix]

are 2 rivers of blood good or should I use nagakiba and rivers?

[muted sage]

Rivers of Blood alone

[brazen shuttle]

Rivers of blood is mid

[whole walrus]

i mean, robs value is all in its aow spam

[tardy kernel]

no reason to use 2 rivers

[ebon forge]

2 hand katana

[tardy kernel]

if ur gonna powerstance thn go 2x uchi

[strange matrix]

one katana is so ahh

[sick storm]

yeah idk when exactly they forked it from er, i think bhs is pre nerf as well?

[chrome forge]

let me solo her best player rives of blood uchi build

[edgy grove]

dreglord is so easy to sightread

[ebon forge]

dual katana moveset is repulsing to me

[sick storm]

golden parry nerf was with sote so it's probably the old one

[hazy sand]

Most of the time the “struggle” is just people who don’t know how to build

[inner gyro]

As much as I like the River’s of Blood katana, it’s pretty mid within its own class.

[brazen shuttle]

Rivers of blood's main purpose is the weapon skill so you only need one. The one-handed moveset is also kinda just better.

[sick storm]

cold uchi so he can frost reset 🔥

[whole walrus]

it still stands on its own

[hazy sand]

I agree

[edgy grove]

thats why i like ed balancers more, there is absokutely no way to predict wtf is going to happen next

[gray wraith]

So stormwall is the best?

[chrome forge]

😭

[sick storm]

rivers is insane in nightreign tho

[brazen shuttle]

No, carian retaliation

[chrome forge]

true

[ebon forge]

so fire idea

[violet heath]

It's a reference to alchemy, the concept of two souls- a masculine and a feminine, and connection to divinity

There's a pattern of empyreans having mirrors, and then as one gets closer to godhood developing a direct counterpart

Marika has Radagon, Miquella has Trina

[hazy sand]

Does he actually use frost?

[whole walrus]

it only deflects projectiles

[pure imp]

golden parry has more active frames

[sick storm]

balancer relic + glass necklace is so fire

[chrome forge]

troll castle

[restive ibex]

Hello

[thick halo]

And the uchi is cold infused

[inner gyro]

I don’t care if it’s a mid weapon, I’m still going to use it.

[sick storm]

believe so yeah

[brazen shuttle]

No it has a parry too wdym

[chrome forge]

HII!!!

[ebon forge]

delete troll castle please

[restive ibex]

Who are you

[chrome forge]

you are not cake

[hazy sand]

Bruh,

[strange matrix]

does anybody know a good dex build before I search yt

[sick storm]

delete base map im gonna be real

[whole walrus]

the iframe data theyre looking at specifically

[restive ibex]

😭

[thick halo]

Dosent he know that Rob deals fire dmg

[pure imp]

carian retaliation has the most active frames

[brazen shuttle]

Ahh yeah

[ebon forge]

no

[sick storm]

why did they have to reduce the chance to get great hollow in don

[hazy sand]

The only time I watched lmsh was his ds2 playthrough, it was certainly something

[unborn olive]

get weapon that scales good with dex, then level dex and you got a build

[sick storm]

base map is so boring

[alpine violet]

Rivers of blood isn't all that good by itself, unless you want to use it for the ash of war. Now you could 2h a nagakiba and but bloodflame blade on it or you could powerstance nagakiba and put cragblade or braggarts roar on the left one or something and then put a good ash on your mainhand and do blood flame blade

[gray wraith]

I thought buckler is best cuz everyone said this

[ebon forge]

limveld is cozy

[whole walrus]

bc my chud teammates are running everywhere

[marsh tulip]

Who does Ranni have then

[brazen shuttle]

He only good at Malenia

[hazy sand]

Genuinely

[gray wraith]

But imma get carian retaliation then

[sick storm]

do not play with ign employees.

[violet heath]

Not necessarily, this game is very purposely punishing

[brazen shuttle]

Elden ring players when they play DS2 and run past every enemy expecting it to work

[inner gyro]

I want a River’s of Blood katana in real life. You can’t tell me that the design isn’t cool.

[edgy grove]

i wish there was a nightlord weak to frost wtf r they doing. and before you say adel, each nightlord has a special interaction with whatever theyre weak to but nobody is weak to frost

[restive ibex]

Me and avari learned everything from lmsh

[whole walrus]

or just uchi over naga since its better in like every way

[chrome forge]

nr is bad why did they make the map open

[restive ibex]

Don’t diss our goat

[chrome forge]

True let me solo her is my goat and is NOT a fraud

[pure imp]

it has the least start up frames, but the same amount of active frames as base parry

[sick storm]

wrong! nr is bad because 80% of the weapons in that game require level 3 or higher

[hazy sand]

I agree, but people make it way harder then they need to

[brazen shuttle]

Meanwhile runs past every enemy in DS2 and dies horrifically

[gray wraith]

Which is the best weapon to Riposte then?

[marsh tulip]

Malenia ain't even hard bro she spends 90% of the fight aura farming

[chrome forge]

does he actually

[whole walrus]

the humble night invader

[ebon forge]

its bad because some ashes are locked

[edgy grove]

just use default until level 3...

[gray wraith]

After a succesful parry

[violet heath]

Commonly interpreted as her counterpart being her body since she's disconnected as just a soul

[hazy sand]

Yup

[restive ibex]

This is because dark souls 2 is bad and full of unfair ganks

[chrome forge]

misericorde or executioner greataxe

[ebon forge]

like wdym I gotta spam slam

[pure imp]

misericorde has the highest multiplier

[violet heath]

Shrug

[ebon forge]

or golden slam

[chrome forge]

great axe isbuild specific tho

[earnest knoll]

When You’re playing beanboozled and you got sweet strawberry papaya flavour and your friend got Shabriri grape flavor

[alpine violet]

By like 10 points of damage😭 usually more casual players would prefer the range I think. I know even I would opt for nagakiba over uchi but that's personal preference

[halcyon kernel]

Hello

[hazy sand]

Get gud

[sick storm]

much less variety for rl1

[edgy grove]

l opinion

[inner gyro]

The build that he uses for Malenia is not that good if I’m being honest with you.

[brazen shuttle]

Misericordé if you just want an offhand riposte weapon. If you want a weapon good at stance breaks and highest possible riposte damage then Executioner's Greataxe.

[violet heath]

Greatstars :3

[sick storm]

so true tho, i love getting infinite damage for free

[chrome forge]

he is my goat

[compact pivot]

Hello

[edgy grove]

default weapon is very good fully upgraded

[restive ibex]

You’re talking to the greatest souls player of all time.

[thick halo]

It’s very bad

[whole walrus]

higher ar, less requirements, can start with it, also quick to get

[hazy sand]

Oh god I see the Naga vs uchi debate

[halcyon kernel]

I am feeling quite fatigued right now

[edgy grove]

fat chungus lard frick

[halcyon kernel]

Uchi>>>

[compact pivot]

Because you are fatigue

[whole walrus]

its just easier and better

[sick storm]

depends on character but ye some of them are insane

[hazy sand]

“But it has more range”

shut

[midnight solstice]

What in the world

[brazen shuttle]

Barely any unfair ganks, just need to not run past the enemies.

[marsh tulip]

That's a lazy interpretation ngl, does her counterpart have anything to do with the floaty face?

[pure imp]

I can see astel skill for stance damage/flame of the redmanes, and misericorde for riposts being not too bad

[brazen shuttle]

Deal with them one at a time and it's fine

[violet heath]

Isn't that the point

[drowsy cedar]

How's monk

[halcyon kernel]

Also plenty of envrionmental interactions to handle groups of enemies

[violet heath]

It's just two swords and a pot

[restive ibex]

Nope ds2 is filled with unfair ganks and adp is the worst thing that has happened to humanity

[edgy grove]

adp?

[compact pivot]

still didn’t play sekiro

[chrome forge]

flame has been heavily nerfed

[drowsy cedar]

Ah

[thick halo]

Ok buddy

[brazen shuttle]

Flame of the redmanes stance damage was nerfed to the ground

[hazy sand]

Emilia please do not fall for this

[compact pivot]

But I like his moveset tho

[midnight solstice]

Guys I think Fiona st. George flamewing from codm resembles malenia , IDK IT JUST DOESSS!

[brazen shuttle]

Skill issue

[ebon forge]

armored core 6 on sale on steam rn

[pure imp]

and nebula?

[thick halo]

I feel like you never played ds2

[alpine violet]

Given you are high level and already have a few game cycles in like the person I was talking to it wouldn't be much of a problem. The only advantage would be ar still

[brazen shuttle]

Adp isn't even bad because the game gives you so many levels

[violet heath]

You're allowed to think that,

It could

The thing about the lore of this game is that a lot of it really is just up to interpretation

People in #lore might know more

[sick storm]

they should revert fotr nerf, the official er guidebook recommends it for malenia

[hazy sand]

The bait so obvious it might as well have a giant sign

[chrome forge]

idk ive only watched a playthrough of elden ring never played myselfg

[brazen shuttle]

😭

[whole walrus]

@restive ibex That link is not allowed.

[ebon forge]

heh chungus

[unborn olive]

the ds1 roll feels worse than 0 adp

[restive ibex]

@restive ibex That link is not allowed.

[sick storm]

adp is bad because i refuse to read and just put all my levels into str

[brazen shuttle]

Ds2 haters be like:

[thick halo]

To be honest it’s not an advantage but it’s not that bad either

[ebon forge]

ds1 feels worse.

[chrome forge]

u are talking to laurenac, greatest souls player to exist

[brazen shuttle]

Yeah that's what I mean

[pure imp]

you mean that skill specifically or like ever?

[compact pivot]

@restive ibex That link is not allowed.

[hazy sand]

All bosses you want to be close to them, the range is meaningless, which means ar is worth more

[chrome forge]

ive never played elden ring

[chrome forge]

stop abusing perms please

[thick halo]

Because ds1 is just a worse game ppl don’t want to admit it

[whole walrus]

you jelly

[edgy grove]

@restive ibex That link is not allowed.

[chrome forge]

right

[halcyon kernel]

Yeah but at least shields and armor are strong

[pure imp]

huh, that makes some claims a little feasible, I guess

[brazen shuttle]

Holy @hazy sand someone who agrees with you

[marsh tulip]

Why do they even nerf a single player game, just nerf the items in pvp and call it a day

[hazy sand]

Ik they are goated

[ebon forge]

lol its a bit silly

[halcyon kernel]

Armor actually protects you

[whole walrus]

same

[inner gyro]

It’s the first Dark Souls game within the trilogy, what do you expect?

[hazy sand]

Something better

[compact pivot]

Idkneverplayeditbefore

[sick storm]

nah fotr was actually giga broken

[unborn olive]

playing it for the first time is making me wonder how ppl ever complained about the sequel

[halcyon kernel]

I think its fun personally, way better than having to use consumbales

[violet heath]

Wow that sure is a woman with a pointed mask that covers the eyes and has no other comparable characteristics

[thick halo]

To be worse than ds2 but smh better than ds3

[restive ibex]

Watch maulers critique on dark souls 2 if you want to know why it’s a bad game

[sick storm]

40 stance damage on an attack with decent range that can also go through some walls

[hazy sand]

I don’t get why “it’s the first game” makes people think I’m gonna like it more

There are better alternatives, I’m going to play them

[pure imp]

the point where they said that star fists was the worst weapon of its class was where I was really wondering what is going on, now it makes a lot more sense

[whole walrus]

also like super easy to spam

[restive ibex]

Feeble king’s critique is also very good

[dusky dune]

Hi Lauren again

[midnight solstice]

Yeah I know but since I'm so much malenia addicted IT JUST RESEMBLED FOR ME IDK 😭

[restive ibex]

Who

[brazen shuttle]

Because some things were genuinely way too broken in pve like flame of the redmanes, hoarfrost stomp, rivers of blood, sword of night and flame

[thick halo]

Wait idk if ds1 is better than 3

[halcyon kernel]

Yeah this is def bait

[hazy sand]

It’s not

[violet heath]

Girl that's too much

[sick storm]

yep and u only needed 2 casts to stance break quite a few bosses

[inner gyro]

My list goes something like this:

Dark Souls II

Dark Souls

Dark Souls III

[paper seal]

jump and thrust attacks are the bane of my existence

[brazen shuttle]

0/10 bait

[halcyon kernel]

For me ds1 is better than ds3

[dusky dune]

Ive been wanting to try it out, but I heard it was really easy compared to the other souls games

[violet heath]

Deep breaths babes

[chrome forge]

bear

[brazen shuttle]

DS2 at the top goated

[halcyon kernel]

Idc what anyone says either

[ebon forge]

factual

[midnight solstice]

Yeah I was playing codm , using her , it just randomly did

[dusky dune]

Im not talking to you, who are you?

[hazy sand]

As I said, giant sign pointing down saying bait

[whole walrus]

ywah i havent played er either

[midnight solstice]

😭

[restive ibex]

Fat chungus lard frick

[pure imp]

dang

[ebon forge]

I lost my ds2 save

[halcyon kernel]

Ds1's world has me coming back

[pure imp]

at least pirate it or sum

[sick storm]

why does ds3 not use steam cloud

[alpine violet]

We are talking about ~10 ar here. Using spacing against bosses and dipping in for a punish is also a valid playstyle here and nagakiba benefits more in that regard. Imo if you are using uchi over nagi you are basically using nagi with less range, I can't see myself caring about that little ar difference

[brazen shuttle]

Neither does DS2 it's weird

[whole walrus]

star fist is the worst guys use iron balls

[brazen shuttle]

DS1 only does because remaster

[dusky dune]

Remember that time he complained about an invisible archer in iron keep even though it was clearly visible

[sick storm]

pain

[edgy grove]

master at baiting

[thick halo]

Sad

[sick storm]

good to know tho, i need to run through ds2 on pc at some point

[pure imp]

iron balls are better actually from what I remember

[halcyon kernel]

I remember that lmao

[hazy sand]

You are fighting bosses where almost every attack they do is double the size of your body, you will never outspace them

[inner gyro]

Just use a sword.

[restive ibex]

@whole walrus @chrome forge i can teach you guys some stuff about er im very knowledgable.

[marsh tulip]

Let them be broken, rivers of blood is an endgame weapon, sword of night and flame requires a very specific build setup, these things should feel rewarding ngl

[ebon forge]

it really is I was like 70% through

[dusky dune]

Remember the time he complained about too little durability even though he was using a +3 dagger to iron keep

[edgy grove]

no theyre the same exact thing but star fist does extra bleed

[pure imp]

use golem greatbow, while leveling arcane only

[whole walrus]

fotr deserved the nerf

[brazen shuttle]

"sonaf requires a very specific build setup" - literally just meet minimum requirements and it was BROKEN

[edgy grove]

and you dont have to kill boggart

[pure imp]

oh, the AR is the same?

[edgy grove]

yes

[marsh tulip]

Fotr?

[pure imp]

dang that makes it so much better what???

[brazen shuttle]

Bloodhound step was also stupid

[whole walrus]

flame of the redmanes
