>>484825542Rykard > Fagdahn
Stop crying about Radahn, nobody caresEvery thread its the same arguments, over and overIf you had spent half the time you do, coping, bitching and ragebaiting in these threads, you would've started to get a grasp of his mechanics already.Yes he attacks alot, and yes the pillars of light can be a bit much, but he doesn't have any undodgeable attacks, he doesn't have any oneshots, and literally everything he does is reactable. Stop crying about his cross-slash move what the fuck.Everyone keeps constructing their little scenario, where Radahn does 20 second long combos without any opening, and then teleports away from them and takes forever getting back into the fight, etc etc.This hasn't happened once in my 100's of fights against him. But if you try to argue with these people, they'll just refer to their made-up (or extremely unlikely, super-unlucky) experience with the fight, making any discussion useless.
I would spend a week in solitary confinement for a chance to lick Marika's asshole.
Don't care goon addict
>>484825808schizophrenic poster
>>484825786>Hmm... Very well... >Join the Serpent Zanzibart, as family... Together, once again!
>>484825808I dont care about the boring boss fight I wanted literally any other character to be shipped with miquella. Miquella is so boring now because he only cares about the only boss who never talks or does anything. and looks retarded with his stupid horse and launching rocks into the air which kind of ruined the atmosphere for me the first time I played when this guy started riding around on his goofy horse and then after when rocks just float in the air forever.
Radahn fucking sucks actually
>>484825808I care, I enjoy rollsloppers being forced to spend hours on his fight while I tanked his shit with a greatshield in 2 attempts.
I would use Rennala's great rune to make Miquella into a breedable girl.
>>484825808its a shit boss and you writing these faggy paragraphs in defense of it shows how mentally fragile you are
So you can apparently shoot metyrs orb black hole to cancel the lasers
Ok anon I need your help, is there anything I can do / use to beat radhan (consort) ? mlgs is +10, shield is +24. skibiddy fragments are maxed and ashes are +8. Estus is +9. I would like to keep it with mlgs actually and not opt for complete different build.
Whats the biggest thing Marika has had inside her you guys reckon? Malikeths knot?
>>484825892>gets staggered by a rat biteanyone who's not retarded
>He just wanted to be like his older brotherTogethaaaaa
This DLC finally added something that I've been sorely missing from the base game:Leather gloves that have a decent poise value. I can hit 51 poise with this on my light load deflect build
>>484826090Based
he's watching you...
so games like call of duty went through a phase where they started adding so many gadgets and options of gameplay that the core gameplay got muddleda term was invented "boots on the ground combat" that didn't involve extreme movement options like jetpacks and grappling hooksand people yearned to go back to itdid the same happen to souls game and elden ring?the core gameplay of melee combat is now so muddled by all the additions that it is no longer the focus of the gamewe have1. all the utility items like throwing items, perfume bottles, FP consuming stones that cast spells2. spirit ashes3. ashes of war and weapon arts4. many more magics and ranged weaponsalmost all of them more effective at playing the game than melee combatdo we want the next souls game to be more focused on melee combat or is adding more and more stuff a good idea?

Is sunflower accessed through the church district?
>>484826157Get your estus to +12 and 14 flasks.+10 your ashes.That's all I got. I had to switch builds entirely to beat him.
SEX WITH CARIAN HAGS
>>484826269hot...
>>484826204TBLBLUGGEVVAAAAA
>>484810762>>484811219ER armor genuinely makes me sad because I love the game so much otherwise but the fashion is the worst in the series. Even DS3's base game had more than 2 good sets.
>>484826204Is Messmer older than Rykard?Morgott and Godwyn and the kids from Marika and Godfrey's union must be the oldest right?
>>484826182Rennala's hat
>Got summoned for the fucking Tree Spirit in the church districtDo people really have trouble fighting these?
>>484826157If you can dodge all his attacks first phase just grab a medium shield and block all his new 2nd phase combos and punish the attacks from first phase.
>>484826090Your Trina?
>>484825542Strongest lore character is the Tarnished.
>>484826284Yes.
Why do I wanna see some art made of Sellen, Leda, and all the other cute ER girls getting transformed into Man Flies?
are perfume bottles rip?
>>484826258I don't think so. ER combat is still pretty simple all things considered, from an execution skill pov, it's easy and most of what they added just feels very superfluous imo. Not much of it is actually meaningful in my opinion.
>>484826402Elden Ring has the best fashion in the series only Bloodborne comes close
>>484826157>Dunkelmondgrossschwert+10Equip a heavier shield, get rid of that goofy armour, replace the viridian amber medallion with two-headed turtle talisman, replace the pearl shield talisman with the golden braid, replace that arsenal charm with either the great-jar's arsenal and equip some real heavy armour, or replace it with a talisman that can increase your damage.
>>484826620At least more understandable than the cube transformation or weird jar head shit
>>484826507This unironically. Godfrey is the strongest dude who ever lived, and we killed him.
>>484826247Im scared
>>484826420No if he's son of Radagon and Marika.
>>484826659>Elden Ring has the best fashion>not a single piece of armor matches another set since the color of the metal is unique to eachYeah no, ER has the WORST fashion
>>484826659
>>484826258It is fine to prototype things and test if they work for future titles. Why not continue building on what you have? Depth is still there but there is now added complexity.
>>484826258This feels like a good balance. I just want the bosses to be more fun.
>>484826343Me on the left
So what are the crosses? Just markers he put?
who here /evilmaxxing/?
How does Miquella manage to look hispanic while having aryan features?
>>484826781>>484826796>Mixing armor setsCringe and gay
>>484826659Dude, I would trade any set in ER for the Hunter Set to be ported over. Also make it blue, because I like blue.
>almost got my Death Mage where I want her with regards to DLC progress and loot obtained>Only have 2 more builds left to advance and one of them is a cosplay that can't use any of the DLC items>PvP is getting boringOh well. This coming weekend will be the last weekend of launch hype.
>>484826867Projectiles should not fucking track, it's so stupid
>>484826867Based, send those gankers to the penis explosion zone
Just wanted to pop in and say if you used ashes or summons on a boss regardless of your reasons/excuses I don't hate you.I just think I'm better at the game than you for clearing all these bosses on a pure int sorcery build with no shield.
>>484826947Another reason why fashion is bad in ER is the balance. Light armors are extremely bad since they lack all defenses and poise and it's extremely easy to just slap on great jar's arsenal and 10 points into end and wear pretty much whatever.
>>484826507>>484826710Is this even up for debate? You canonically kill two gods. Godfrey might as well be shit you stepped on.
>>484827016Anon, that's the whole gimmick of Rabbath's Cannon
>>484826947Better to fashionmax than look like a midget boss wannabe or be confused for cosplaying a NPC
>>484826860his literal body parts
>>484826402Your taste is nonexistent.
>>484827135Don't care
What exactly is the Tarnished doing to Miquella here?
>>484826465>>484826687>goofy armorI mean it's moores armor, which is the heaviest in the game right? What's a good shield? This one gives me the most holy resistance and 100% physical
>>484827067if you took longer you are actually worse at the game
Christ Messmers second phase is a load of horseshit. I was having fun fighting him and then he goes anime edgelord on you and summons snakes with weird timings for the dodges.
>>484827191same thing Messmer did
Ranni would have been a better consort ironically
>>484827191Dropping lemon juice from wedges in his eyes
so, was radahn mind-controlled in the ending? its weird that he doesnt speak.
>>484826860Remnants of his discarded flesh and markers for his servants (Leda and company) to follow
>>484827189Okay well all you're doing is revealing how much of a chickenshit you are so....
>>484827067It's okay, you can think that. I don't find joy in grinding bosses for multiple hours.A win is still a win.
ok no but really, how do I play twinblades without being a jumpattacking dualwield bleedfaggot?I'm trying to use ONE twinblade, but both the charged attacks AND the heavy jump attacks are so fucking slow, that I cant poisebreak for shit.It just becomes a rollfest with lightattacks, and no controll over the boss whatsoeverAre twinblades just bad in PvE? (dualwield jumpattack excluded in this scenario ofcourse) Or is there something I'm not seeing yet?
>>484826781>>not a single piece of armor matches another set since the color of the metal is unique to eachBut enough about DS3
>>484827149>>484827286I thought the scadutree fragments were his body parts, not the crosses
>Melina gives you Torrent>Torrent used to be Miquella'sWill the DLC elaborate on literally any further connection between the two?>No
>>484827143>I HAVE TO LOOK LIKE AN OC DONUT STEEL
>>484827317>pepefagOf course
>>484827206It's moore's armour with lionel's pants and blaidd's head dude...I used ant skull plate, but it's not meta for whatever reason.
>>484827279He's a battle mad giga homo shounen antagonist. Words aren't necessary.
>>484826710>>484827123How is the Tarnished stronger than Godfrey when every single punch with his bare hands puts the Tarnished into a state of imminent death while he's face-tanking blow after blow from your weapons?>You killed himA small child can kill a bear with a rifle theoretically.
>>484825808NO! HE IS A BAD BOSS, HE IS! THE FUCKER DOES NOTHING BUT SPAM AOE ATTACKS ALL THE TIME, ITS LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO BEAT IN AN HONEST WAY UNLESS YOURE A VIRGIN LOSER GAMER
>>484827387
>>484827171It gets worse, my favorite fashions all come from DS2.
I just beat Ranni.
>>484827110Fashion > Austistic min max
>>484827279The 'Radahn' you fight in the ending is essentially Moghs Reanimated flesh changed and placed under a hex by Miquella. Basically Miquella is married to a flesh puppet made to look like Radahn in his youth
>>484827419ah yes, because that was the heaviest to still get middle weight. I will try to look for the pot, don't have it same with turtle
Which ER bosses could he defeat?I think he could defeat Rykard. He's too big so he's easy for Dragon God to just grab and slap around
>>484827363They are clearly his poop, and that's why everyone is scrambling to collect them.
>>484827016Yeah, it's not like there are a billion different spells that also track, do more damage, and don't have an hour of recover after firing. It's funny how the glintstone cannon basically completely power creeps the jar cannon and ballista tho.>>484827032You got it chief.
>>484827603I hate seeing cool fashion ruined by some blank-faced JAV prostitute wearing it.
>>484827679None of those should track either
>>484827527Fine, The Tarnished is the greates /warrior/ in the story. Not exactly the strongest but the most skilled.
>>484827527You canonically beat his ass and then beat Radagon and the Elden Beast's asses. Gameplay and story =/= one to one
>>484825808>He posted it again
>>484827742>I hate seeing cool fashion ruined by some blank-faced JAV prostitute wearing it.KEK
>>484827603DS2 best fashion
>>484827624>ah yes let me take 40% more damage and get staggered by everything because my taste is superiorif you think wearing basic ass knight armor you buy from the roundtable is autistic min maxing then I don't know what to tell you
>>484827363The Scadutree fragments are pieces of the Scadutree that you see falling off of it from a distance
>>484827417Victory at all cost.
>>484827110My boss kills are quick as fuck
>>484827836>Messmer could have made the hornsent genocide a bit cooler if he did this with his wicker men
>>484827798I was considering giving your previous post a shoutout, but it'd seem to petty to do it in the post itself, let it be our little secret, hmh? >>484815998
>>484826960>death mage so you spam rancor?
>>484827781>>484827786I'm just saying that Godfrey didn't need to run away and chug a sippy bottle. In general I find the flask system makes the protag seem weaker than intended.
>>484827759Better luck in Elden Ring 2 then.
>>484827123>Godfrey might as well be shit you stepped on.What betwixt man and woman creature are you to be calling Our lord-father that you wenchless sack of aged, unused estrogen?
>>484827896Was Miquella a child at heart/in mind as well as body?
Scratch that, Messmer's snake bullshit isn't too bad. Strafing with a shield seems to confuse the snakes and they miss? I dunno, but it made his second form a pushover.
>>484827235P2 is the easy phase what the fuck are you on about You can get multiple hits on the snakes after their attackAs soon as I learned to get him to P2 I knew I had the fight, after seeing that snake attack once I was like Shit I can punish the hell out of that
>>484828101no, just a faggot.
>>484826420I think he's Radagon/Marika's kid pre-Godfrey.
Is there a consensus yet for the target poise in 1.12?
>>484827867>i NEED to use OP armor to beat the gameSounds like skill issue to me
>>484828084Not my fault your dad got his ass kicked by some random literal who that wanted to fuck his wife
>>484827265Radahn is a Golden Order simp, hence Miquella.Meanwhile Ranni and Rykard have normal ideas about relationships so they just marry commoners.
>>484827235It's easier than Phase 1
>>484828248same as always, 50unless you're talking about pvp in which case I don't care
>>484826659>unironically thinking that Elden Ring's fashion holds a candle to Bloodborne'slollmao evenperhaps even kekElden Ring doesn't even manage to be as good as the other souls games, let alone Bloodborne that is orders of magnitude better.
>>484828101No Miquella was a faggot
Her armor is so good, I wish it looked a little less awkward on the Tarnished Why was this a webp? I didn't even know tumblr supported webps, I had to convert it to png
>>484827110>Light armors lacking in poiseTrue>defensesNot trueEven 20+ish phys absorption matters.
>>484828230>Radagon/Marika's kid pre-GodfreyHow's this even possible?
>>484828358Phase 1 genuinely pisses me off. They were more concerned on making him look cool than making him fair.
>>484828515They're the same person. Anything is possible.
>>484828139>P2 is the easy phase what the fuck are you on aboutI was standing still like an idiot trying to roll them. It turns out after some experimenting they're shit at tracking you, and moving made them inaccurate and an amazing punish window. Messmer is toast, and I'm kind of sad to see him go.
>>484828515How is it impossible?
fccee?
>>484828262holy shit that's some bad art
>>484827714>Kenneth Haight>you meet him high upHow did they come up with this shit?
>>484828619They became the same person only after Godfrey.
Stop loving evil men and women who are bad for you
>>484828740I clapped when he said that

>>484828690>gets btfo>goalposts to shitting on the artLmao
>>484828745Says who? Radagon was around while Godfrey was around. Have you ever seen Radagon and Marika in the same place?
>dont want to finish Ranni's quest because I will be sad its over I didnt expect to like this doll so much, her voice and attitude are super cute. Starting from her knowing I am trying to enter her service just to pry for info but letting me do it anyway and ending with (so far) making fun of me for talking to dolls.
>>484828323Ranni's "consort" is just a yes man who is missing obvious red flags
>>484828682sure
>>484828661Imagine trying to cuck Godfrey.
>>484828875You won the game already. What do you want?
>>484828745lol. The DLC's been out for two weeks. You'll have to stop spouting debunked headcanons eventually.
>>484828902Do you think Godfrey would appreciate Radagon's twunk physique?
>>484828890only thing you btfo is your anus every night now stop wasting my time with your replies and shitty tumblr spam
>>484828515It is never explicitly stated when Radagon emerged. I personally believe it was during the war with the fire giants considering Radagon's red hair. Could be possible Melina and Messmer were born then which also would explain why Messmer was spirited away to the land of shadow so quickly. Godfrey most likely knew the truth and was just glad to have Messmer gone
>>484827279>>484827625 It's not a flesh puppet bc it needs a soul, but it's not stated the chosen lord's body needs to be the original. Miquella modified Mohg's body, to put Radahn's soul in it. Also Miquella has no mind control while he's inside the Gate of Divinity. It's the Lord who must usher (allowing entrance) to the new god. Second phase cutscene is Radahn activating the gate to let Miquella in.
>>484828903Still got a lot of her quest to go anon. She's overwhelmingly the best fleshed out quest in the game.
>>484828291>some random literal who that wanted to fuck his wife>doesn't mention Godfrey actually being the Tarnished's father/grandfather>fuck>immediate first thought is to pornpost and self-chad post>the two most insecure combinations in oneYou're not living past 40.
>>484828875Understand anon, the description says it's fading...
Do you think Godrey cared for Morgott and Mohg?
>>484828890>needs to post fan art because the in game sets look like shit
>>484828946Hence, "pre-Godfrey".
I can't kill Fagdahn...19 skibidi, tried parry strat, two-handed colossal cr2 and HTS (with shield or two-handed). Second phase is too much, he flies away so I can't keep up the posture damage even with throwing knives, I get stuck on terrain and eat the holy damage follow-ups, sometimes I miss the crit because of the elevation, a single mistake in dodging make me eat the full combo too often. Hate this fight
>>484829149He at least cared for Morgott. Watch his intro cutscene again.
>>484828984Either he does or he gets a fight out of it, which he also likes. All we know is that Marika is worth it.
I just got the scorpion charm from Seluvis. I remember from my last run that he gives you a potion next. I dont intend to use it on Ranni, is there a use for it elsewhere or should I just not take it at all?
>>484829095Most Tarnished images I have are with Ranni.I don't think Godfrey is the ancestor of every single Tarnished. A lot of them just followed him, didn't they?
>asks for fight club>doesn't joinfuck you1/4
>>484828640I had no issues rolling themBut glad you figured out what works for you anon
>>484828902How would Radagon wage war on Carians and then spend time as Renallas hubby if he was Marika? You think nobody would notice that their Queen and Goddes is fucking missing for who knows how long?
>>484828230Radagon and Marika share the same body. Marika is shown in the trailer, pre-Godhood, to have tooth marks on her skin, implying she was fused.This also means that Radagon might've been some part of her already.Therefore, since two opposite genders share the same body, they adapt.Therefore, Marika/Radagon is a hermaphrodite/futanari, but when one mind takes control the body alters itself to represent them more, for example Radagon's more muscular masculine build and red hair.Godfrey, therefore, made Radagon into a woman and had him carry a child that Marika cared for.Messmer's phase transition also mimics Godfrey's.Godfrey was so mighty that all those he bested were women for him to impregnate.
How it feels to fight Rellana
>Mongrel intruder...How do you respond to this?
>>484829417They are the same person, they inhabit the same body, but they can become two different people it's a fantasy story anon
>>484826258The fundamentals are okay but certain systems are getting muddled. The open world and crafting are not worth repeating. Weapon infusions and skills/ashes are awkwardly implemented and too unrestricted. Having movesets tied to weapons feels antiquated given the sheer number of them ingame.

>>484829350Doesn't excuse it.And I suppose, still it would make more sense for the only being to best Godfrey to be Godfrey's own seed.
>>484829486Show him porn of his mother
>>484827576What's the problem with this exactly?
>>484827576Who cares? Its awesome
>>484829417Do you think Radagon and Marika were just never seen together at the same time and place for his entire reign as Elden Lord then? Miquella literally casts off his other half in SotE. Why couldn't Marika have done the same?

>>484829486Messmer-sama... this lowly Tarnished sow apologizes for dirtying the air you breathe with my presence...
>>484829417No one questions Marika. She can say she's going to go into the tree and then Godfrey just holds the fort. She's also a god. Do you question your god when he doesn't show up to your birthday?But if a Lord has to usher in a God and the Lord requires a vessel, it's reasonable to assume Radagon was the Lord for the ascension of Marika and he vesseled inside of her.
>>484825808
is the poise cut off 83 or 84?
>>484829687You're a Tarnished of no renown and the biggest murder hobo the Lands Between has ever seen. I don't think that a relation to Godfrey is necessary. IIRC, the Warrior class is explicitly connected to to him.

>>484828907Already dead?
>>484829792Why would you not keep leveling up when you have the possibility to do so?
My original theory is that the putrescent k***ht was Radahn's discarded body but when I think about it it doesn't make much sense.
>>484829168He's the first Elden Lord, and if the game sates anything clearly it's that you need a Lord (aka consort) to become a God, so there was no "pre-Godfrey".
>>484829585Not really considering none of this is explicitly stated ever in game you are going to have to make assumptions lol

>>484829801We posting these?
>>484829953> IIRC, the Warrior class is explicitly connected to to him.You meant the Hero. Warrior is associated with the swordsman garbed in blue.
>>484829775Go back to X
>>484830007I personally don't really think the prlutrescant knight is anything in particular, it's just like the embodiment/strongest of the putrescant things that are grateful to Truna and so are trying to protect her
>>484829486>Hey, step-son. Wanna play football?And then I toss a football at him.
>>484829768Base final boss cutscenes, then the fact Radagon shagged Rennala while Marika was in leyndell
>>484826659True. However it also has the worst helmets.
Why can NPCs and enemies cast spells from their weapons and why can't I?All of them cast shit without a talisman and I wanna do that too, why do I have to cycle for talismans to cast my shit, from
>>484829180I fought him for 10 hours and beat him with parry strat and a suboptimal build I was refusing to change (full int, parry shield and cold-infused dagger) at SL125 Its a matter of staying close to him so he does more melee attacks. When he throws rocks run away from him and then jump to the side. Then block the several swings he makes, they are low damage. Then dodge the ground slam. I saved my Bubble physick for his landing after he launches himself in the air. I also just stood, blocked and then healed during his "levitate in the air, deal holy AoE" attack. This let me stay next to him so I increase the chance he does basic swings after that instead of something dumb.This leaves you just having to learn to dodge his "my swords are glowing" attacks (a dash and a string, not sure if you can parry the string, never tried)Last tip - lower your graphics settings to minimum.
>>484830045>Not really considering none of this is explicitly stated ever in gameQuite a lot of things are explicitly stated in the game. So yes, you're pulling shit out of ur ass.
>>484830202>Why can NPCs and enemies cast spells from their weapons and why can't I?To humiliate and emasculate you for being a weak pathetic foolish Tarnished.
>>484830202You can cast spells with the carian sorcery sword and some other weapons
>>484829334Don't bother, you got everything of worth from him unless you still need some puppets.
Apologize now

>>484828949If Marika's dress fell off, would she die?
>>484830202Tarnished is too dumb to hold the sacred seal in her palm then close fingers in that same hand around the sword hilt
>>484830337noboth faggots deserve their skulls caved in, even if solely for being faggots.
>>484830369i knew they'd be friends
>>484830174Nah they inhabit the same body. Mask of Confidence state how Radagon was extremely private and swore all of his servants to secrecy. Seems like he was hiding something big
>>484830174Huh? Game explicitly tells you that they became one only after Radagon became a Lord.
>>484830348The Formless Mother, based on the Bloodfiends there.
>>484830348>Bambieshart when Zanzibart sucked his dick
>>484830032Yes there was. The Golden Order hasn't existed forever, anon. I'm saying I think Messmer was born before Marika attained true divinity. Although he also could have been born during Godfrey's reign. It's not like gods didn't cheat on each other plenty in various mythologies.
I kneel to armormaxxed chads who dont give a fuck about fashion (he was at Hippo, so doesnt have the better helm yet)
>>484828101Yes, that's why he had the power to make people love him and also why he was retarded
>Holy>Strongest damage type in game>Has great FP efficiency>Only issue is that most Golden Order enemies (which is the majority of the toughest enemies in the game) will resist itAnyone else likes this? It's very in-line with the lore and you could see how the Golden Order was so dominant over the other civilizations. If the enemy is unresistant to all damage types, holy is by far the best.
>>484828101Yes. He was incredibly intelligent by all accounts, but his naivety, inability to understand the long term consequences of his actions, and tendency to immediately discard his projects at the first sign of failure, all scream the immaturity of an eternal child.
>>484827989Rancor, Putrescence...yeah.
>>484830342Blue swordsman is unironically the yodamonkey.

>>484830509Armor max is fire knight helm + solitude other pieces. It's the new havel mom.
>>484830529Fire > Lightning > Holy
>>484830253Then tell me what the canon relationship is between Messmer and Marika. Because the game never says they are children of Marika/Radagon. But you can use your brain to figure it out
>>484830392Tits too small
At what level should I stop using Radagon's soreseal?
>>484830472where>>484830464radagon gets turned into a sword while Marika survives after Elden Beast dies
>>484826781Only good thing Lords of the Fallen (2023) did was armor palettes. Apparently there's also an Elden Ring mod that has them, Reforged maybe?
>>484830529Holy is the most common element to be resistant to. Lightning is the best.
>>484830276>have to lose have your already limited moveset to be able to cast spells From's execution on magic makes me seethe like nothing else honestly they're so fucking bad at this and we're like 6 games in
Abyssal wood invasions is kino.
>>484830505Why would you even think this? Are you retarded?
>>484830529
>>484830505I think Messmer was born after her ascension but before the establishment of the Golden Order, mostly only evidenced on how the giants are impaled and I think that's a bit below Godfrey alone.
>>484830698Do you have at least 40 vigor? Are you fine with the endurance you have for the armor you're wearing? Have you at least reached your weapon requirements for the weapons you're using? If yes to all of these, you can safely throw it in the trash.

>I leave here my resentment, and attachment to all external outcomes.From a narrative perspective, Shadow of the Erdtree is the worst DLC ever made and radiates confused malice. It's precisely engineered to have it's users focus on extraneous gameplay elements while turning their head away from the great evil their committing, and unconsciously approving of. This is accomplished by exacerbating suspect qualities of it's characters (in particular Miquella) and bastardizing them in the most obscene fashions possible, losing not only the essence of those characters and ruining all suspension of disbelief, but creating a linear story that requires the player to "destroy" them to complete it.They take an omnibenevolent nigh-messianic figure who used his powers of beguilement to forestall blood shed, rectify the sins of the old Order that the relationship with the Greater Will (God) may be restored, and create a sanctuary of healing where the lost and forsaken may find refuge. They disregard his innocent primary motivation of protecting his sister Malenia and brother Godwyn from being ensnared by entropic forces that threaten to undo all he holds dear. They disregard his immense temperance and apparent kindness at not using his powers of beguilement for ill during the timeline of the base game to create a scenario similar to the Black Knives. All about Miquella is tossed to the side so that he can be used as a propagandist device to reinforce paranoia about a messiah's promise of a future of forgiveness, infinity and unity, and program future generations to be the Agent Smith who prevents humanity from ascending past tribal politics, hedonism, resource war and wanton violence by forcing the player avatar to bring them to the sword after being debased from their incredible struggle and triumph, amounting only to humiliation and desolation after they did their all to pave a way to purity and peace everlasting.This is the most repulsive piece of media ever made.

>>484830529I wish Golden Order-related enemies were conversely more vulnerable to Liurnian sorceries.

Its kind of surprising this isnt made out to be a bigger deal in the lore

>>484831298Never called to the tree I guess. Better to leave her as a neutralized threat and keep them in civil war.But the sorcerers descendants of the astrologers, who used to do body hopping, or still do in Sellen's case, so maybe something to do with that?

>>484831787Um, anon, Miquella doesn't have a body in the DLC.
>>484832070i like collecting them though. especially when they're mostly just an excuse to look at pretty scenery from different vantage points. no, no, my problem is with how fucking empty a lot of the levels, especially the open world, feel. galloping along on torrent for what seems like miles with literally nothing but scenery, few or no enemies. i love looking at the beautiful scenery though, it's the long boring marathon simulator shit that annoys me.EMPTY.
>>484832065>The Second Liurnian War>No victory for the golden, nor for the moonCaria/Liurnia is the only faction in the entire game to survive not just one Golden Order conquest attempt but to fight the second one to a standstill.

>saves you're entire game's lore single-handedly
Thoughts on this shield?
>>484827990That's just for gameplay. If every boss played out like the lore it would just be a power fantasy of the Tarnished one shotting bosses and snowballing completely out of control power wise with every great rune.
>>484832327This says the bibble
>>484832353they're not, though. literally the entirety of what they know about ER is an article they read about "Let Me Solo Her". that's what they're talking about specifically there. like literally unironically from the meme, they didn't even play the game.

Is it me, or are the bosses in the DLC just heal punishing constantly? Some are alright, but many seem to REEEEEE at you healing and immediately attack you the moment you sip.
>>484832545needs 20% more fire resist
>>484831935They obviously couldn't figure out how to program spellcasting as an AoW. There's no other explanation for it being on R2 of the Sorcery Sword.

>>484832008I remember a streamer CEing Radahn to figure things out and he regens poise in like 6sec when most bosses at that poise level take way longer

>>484832808That would explain it, I really don't like the change. They should've just given him 200 poise with the standard timer calculation like base game radahn instead of messing with the timer.

>>484827319You don'ttwo handed twinblade attacks are legitimately almost as slow as colossal weapon swings. When they were speeding every weapon class up because mutliple of them were outright atrocious in PvE twinblades got skipped. So you get the worst of both worlds where even your running attack dual wielded is overly long for no fucking reason.
So, how soon until all the Miquella doujins
>>484831087>Caria is the only faction in the entire game's lore to not get roflstomped by the GO, literally everyone else got run overThe thing about sorceries is that while nobody is necessarily weak to eat, neither is it really resisted by anyone but Carian and Noxian enemies. That's one of the many reasons why it's so reliable. It's also quicker to cast, being straight to the point/boring (like how an engineer would approach casting) and lacking the flourishes of incantations.
Built for Kind Miquella only
>>484833315cause griffith is a faggot and deserves worse than death
>>484825808Even no hit runners who've done him no hit say some of his attacks require incredible RNG and frame perfect dodges to avoid and think he's going to get nerfed. The fight is clearly overtuned and you're an idiot.

>>484831859It is never explicitly stated when Radagon emerged. Without digging into it it seems like he just showed up sometime after the war with the giants during the carian wars. The fire giants whip however states "Every giant is red of hair, and Radagon was said to have despised his own red locks. Perhaps that was a curse of their kind." While i dont think Radagon is a fire giant lol the connection between them is there
>>484833454NTA but I think he's referring to that eagle summon that says he was the old ruler of stormveil or something
>>484832706a character for weebs
>Melina, Ranni, Margit all can teleport, but these are spirits without a physical body>Mohg can teleport his physical body through blood magicI guess this specific feature is why Mohg was needed to enter the Land of Shadow beyond having Marika lift the seal?Would also help explain why the wars in the lore weren't just decided by Marika/Radagon teleporting into the heart of the enemy and blowing up the enemy leader and vice versa.
>>484833080Fucking based. Shame the flower crucible spell is such dogshit.
>>484832832Citation?
>>484832892it's not just putting shit on a buttontheir entire animation and stats/damage value system must be completely and utterly fucked under the hood. There are so many glitches that recur every time they release new shit, over and over, I'm completely convinced they tried to put "cast spell" as a skill but their programmers are too incompetent to tie the right numbers to a skill activation instead of an attack. Shit like buffs and heals still only scaling with the Faith portion of multi-stat seals and the obviously unintended way projectile AoWs scale.
>>484833378do women get heartbroken when they find out they like a faggot or do they just turn into fujos

Such a long cast animation, plus further delay before the actual attack starts, and then it does pathetic damage even if somehow the thing you were targeting remained in one place long enough to get caught in it. I'm completely convinced they didn't even test most of the new spells, because there is no way someone on the dev team used Bloom or Rain of Fire and said "this is fine".

>>484832787The Golden Order carried out several military campaigns. First it beat the shit out of the Ancient Dragons, and then it genocided all except one(1) of the Fire Giants, and also obliterated Nox civilization and sent the survivors underground. Now in the DLC we learn they also wrecked the Hornsent. There are also a bunch of hints of lesser kingdoms throughout the Lands Between, none of which exist anymore.Now obviously you can attribute the>Golden Order fights some guys>Golden Order wins and kills all or most of those guys>Now there's only some remnants leftto FromSoft's oversimplified storytelling, but in-universe what we have is that during the Golden Order's expansion they went on a rampage and murderkilled the shit out of literally everyone and we never get any lore of a successful resistance against the GO. It's why the two Liurnian Wars are so notable; like >>484832415 pointed out it's the ONLY EXAMPLES of ANYONE in the setting not getting obliterated. The 1st Liurnian War ended with Godfrey's GO army losing, and the 2nd Liurnian War ended in a stalemate and marriage.The "Radagon is a Manchurian agent" theory is that Radagon, who we're explicitly told is a Golden Order loyalist and described as a "leal hound," spent his time in Liurnia crippling the country so that it would never be able to present a credible threat to the GO in the future.For one thing, while nobody can be 100% sure how the primeval current actually works and why researching it is related to Graven Masses AKA Sorcererballs popping up, we're all but told outright that the most powerful Liurnian sorceries come from researching the Primeval Current. Lusat and Azur both got their signature spells from primeval current research, for example.In the time frame of the game where /ourdude/ shows up, the Primeval Current and its research has been banned by royal Carian decree. I'm kind of fuzzy here because I read the lore breakdown months ago but it went something like this...1/X

The bosses just feel so spongy, and the long ass attack chaining with 100% hyperarmor just feels like I'm playing some anime game. I want to trade blows, make decisions about when to attack or defend, force the boss into a posture break, not just roll around like a retard for a light poke every 30 sec.

I do not care for furnace golems. I think they're an annoyance.
>>484835016Thnx anon
>>484834462Yes it gets buffs and status, don't know about stance, but it hits twice if you hit the thrust and it shoots a dart which is pretty easy to do and usually staggers an enemy.
Won't lie I gave up and summoned mimic on putrescence. Couldn't get the roll timing on that horse corkscrew combo and I could never get it through my head that I need to jump the initial wave of flames and land inside the flames which are somehow not damaging any more.
>>484835018The ones you can throw pots into are fun, if only for the cathartic FUCK YOU moment.
>>484834164We know at some point in the past researching the Primeval Current was simply a thing sorcerers did until Rennala banned it. Sellen was expelled from Raya Lucaria for continuing to fuck around with the Primeval Current, and Jerren, a Carian retainer, was sent to kill her off for the crime. But he wasn't able to kill her because Radahn was holding the stars in stasis. Only after Radahn dies does Sellen become mortal and we have to rescue her from the Witchbane Runes. Therefore the Primeval Current ban decree happened relatively recently in the timeline. Radahn has to have been already an adult AND moved to Sellia to study gravity magic AND mastered it at this point.In other words, by the time the Primeval Current(the source of some of Liurnia's most powerful sorceries) was banned, Radagon had already gotten Rennala pregnant with at least one kid who grew to adulthood.Caria is the magic royal house ruling the magic country with the magic school. Years after they use that magic to resist the GO, their queen marries a guy from the GO who canonically has her around his finger and has a vested interest in keeping Liurnia weak. Suddenly Caria bans the source of some of their most powerful magics, kicks out some of their best wizards(Azur and Lusat) and later prosecute one of Raya Lucaria's top students(Sellen can cast Founding Rain of Stars).At the time Radagon married Rennala, Liurnia under the Carians was the only faction that was able to hold back the Golden Order because of how powerful their sorceries were. These guys beat Godfrey and *technically* beat Radagon too, if your invasion is stalemated we usually say it's the invader who lost, not the defender.By the time Radagon returns to Leyndell, Liurnian magical research is crippled, Liurnian magical talents have been exiled or jailed, the Carian queen has been handed an egg that she can't help but obsess over, and there are minor erdtrees growing on Liurnian soil.Leal Hound of the Golden Order.

Why do they teleport you into the tower after burning the little tree?That makes the door after the dancing lion completely redundant.
>>484835067its stance damage is the same as all GSes, except split about 80/20 between the blade and dart on the moves that shoot it.

>>484834963I don't know how this relates but I'm fucking pissed the we didn't get an incantation casting weapon. Apparently try that's what the carian knight sword and Miquellan Knight sword were supposed to be in an earlier build of the game.
I do not care for this DLC
>>484834929>>Astrologer>Young scholar who left the academy to learn the fate of the starsI interpret Astrologers to be people who were never associated with Raya Lucaria who learned magic indepently. I'd rather that anyway because the Burger King people are a bunch of freaks.
>>484835308same as every powerstance, just the 1h moveset of your right weapon. the L1 moveset is standard dual GS.
Not gonna lie, I read something different at first.
>>484834961Get more END. Get more stamina regen. Use shield grease and/or the greatshield talisman. The biggest downside is that the regular thrusting shield now has to roll slop more.The carian thrusting shield does a good enough job and only has to roll against some of Radahn's strings
>>484833624People really like their prettyboy Tarnishes.
>>484834152It's so ugly tho :(
I feel like the rakshasa armor is probably going to get nerfed. The +8% damage taken debuff seems to be applied after everything else unlike the debuffs from scorpion rings or soreseals that actually show the negation hit on your character sheet. +8% to all damage dealt for an armor with good weight, resistances, and poise is very strong for spell casters.

>>484835291The weird thing is there's some indication that Radagon really did love Rennala. This was before the DLC trailer even came out so iirc the "is Radagon part of Marika, someone else who got absorbed, someone mind controlled, a puppet, an artificial lifeform, a tree splicing etc etc" stuff was still going on. When this theory got hammered out over the span of several threads, there were some jokes about Marika magically hitting Radagon with the Manchurian agent activation codephrase so that he randomly tells Rennala to ban the Primeval Current while he's fucking her or some shit.
>>484835320From clearly didn't trust players to find their way back to the door
Guys, does anyone know a good chiropractor? I have a pain in my back i cant get rid of
>>484835560I meant DLC only incantations my bad but it should have been obvious when I listed only DLC ones
>>484835295Maybe, but it's not like it really matters.
>>484835479This, it was boring. Seriously, from should just drop the dark souls design altogether for their next game.
>>484835195Marika/Radagon is based on Rebis, it has nothing to do with trannies, it's some schizo alchemy shit.
>>484835339nta but arent most ancient dragons hiding in a literal time pocket rn, the ones still left in the main world are normal dragons which are like degenerated offspring, or tamed ones like lansseax who got tamed by godwyn cock

>>484836487I don't know about Ranni but I killed radahn before talking to Blaidd and still could do Ranni's quest.
>>484834164>>484835126Dont forget that Radagon also took over the Carian preceptorshttps://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Preceptor's+Big+HatNiggas like Seluvis used to serve Caria and Radagon ended up having so much control/influence on them they changed their mask to suit him

>>484836448One of the best enemies in the DLC. I actually liked them so much I fought most of their big mob ganks head on. Dark Souls 2, for all the shit it gets about ganksquads, had a lot of genuinely good multi-enemy fights mixed in with the shit ones and Elden Ring largely seemed afraid of ever ganking you. The big swarms of Bloodfiends were a breath of fresh air and some much needed variety.
>>484836826Why are you like this?
I’m on my first play through and I’m currently in the DLC and I’d like to know, when should you stop leveling?

>>484836559Oh yeah, the issue isn't the bosses and it never was. The issue is that the combat and movement system is designed for a much slower game.
>>484836916Depends on what you want. Do you want to do pvp/pve after?If you don’t then just keep leveling. You won’t outlevel the content like in the base game.I beat the dlc at 163.
>>484836791thanks i guess
>>484836916if you are on PS5, stop at 139if you are on PC, dont stop leveling and never participate in the multiplayer
Th-thanks dads
>>484836598Good catch. Yeah, by the end just about every major Carian institution had been undermined by Radagon. Liurnia as we see it when /ourguy/ arrives would never be able to challenge the Golden Order. It's kind of telling that a Golden Order multi-directional civil war and succession crisis is the perfect time for them to try for independence but the country is just in deadlock.
>>484836810Funny. Explain this to me how is that supposedly the hornsent jarred a whole people when there was just one whipping shack? Curious... Messmers soldiers will kill you for just asking these questions
I find it interesting that in the end, the game was about the cycle of revenge/abuse, in a far more effective manner than overhyped shit like TLOU2
>>484836757>AHHHH I NEED TO ANOUNCE HOW MUCH COCK I SUCK IN EVERY INTERACTION WITH ANOTHER HUMANJust be normal, man.

Stats suffer diminishing returns as they get higher, with a 'softcap' where they basically fall off a cliff and stop being worth leveling at all.The softcap for vigor is 60 and you really ought to aim for it before the end of the DLC.The softcap for most offensive scaling stats is 80.So basically hit the vigor softcap, hit the softcap for the main scaling stat your preferred weapons/spells use, add enough endurance/mind that you feel comfortable with and then you can choose to stop or to level a different offensive stat to add more weapon/spell variety. Just know that you aren't really making your character stronger at that point, just adding more and more possible options to choose between.Generally speaking you can only attack with one weapon at a time, so when you add a new offensive stat, and thus a new pool of weapons, to your build what you're basically doing is stapling a second build onto it, and switching between them in the equipment menu. Thus it's ultimately up to you whether you want to just keep levelling until your character can do every 'build' or make a whole new character and start a playthrough fresh with a separate build.
>>484836559I know there's a Nioh 2 shitposter here but From legitimately needs to look at how Team Ninja does their soulsbornes. Nioh, Wo Long, Strangers of Paradise have genuinely great combats and From would benefit greatly from learning from others too.
>>484837398Do you want to give those dickbags a good or a bad ending?
>>484837398Read the item description.
>>484837258Maybe, but TLOU2 is much easier to follow because for all their faults, the writers didn't try and have it both ways by telling a direct story while also hiding all the important bits in item descriptions.
>>484836916150 is old and dusted. 166/175/200 are all appropriate stopping points if you still care about co-op/invasions, but It depends on how "complete" your build is at that point.
>>484835320Perhaps so that you could hypothetically skip the lion if you wanted.As it currently stands, I believe you technically only need to defeat Messmer, Romina, and Radahn to 'complete' the DLC.Count Ymir also informs you that in ancient times, setting sealing trees aflame was a mode of light-based transportation used by the profane four-toes, whose race, once the highest clerics of the greater will, were sealed within the outer reaches of the cosmos for their treacherous dealings with the forbidden outer god known only as Cerulean Freshness. He will only tell you this if you present him with Godrick's pickled head, which can be obtained by using the two-fingers gesture in Castle Stormveil Courtyard for seventy two minutes straight, which will initiate the Gatekeeper Gostoc four-phase boss-fight.
The lore behind dragonflies?
>>484837398Occultation gets you weapons, Grace gets you spirit ashes
>>484836394The balling was consensual. Carian fascists just don't like alternative lifestyles.
>estoc: equipped>medium shield: ready for parries>mimic tear (boss): aggroedYup, its time for the best fight in the gameThe fucking parry-fest back and forth is honestly hilarious, then it shieldpokes you, and you block, and guard counter, but it parries you, and rollcatches you with impaling thrust
>spent an hour grinding the Messmer Soldier gloves>love how they look, love how the mainhand has a glove>it only matches with the redmane knight legs>Doesn't match with anything else.>wanted to use it with the scaled chest (doesn't match)A A A A A A A A
>>484837498Fromsoft would legitimately advance their combat systems by leaps and bounds by replacing FP with the elegant solution of Spirit Gauge from Wo Long
>>484837575They are dragonflies but much bigger than normal dragonflies.
>>484837498>soulsborne
>>484837258TLOU2 is garbage written by Californians who only interact with subhumans from the same bubbleER DLC is way too vague and ambiguous and for all people know their journey was just to kill a pair of faggots, do you honestly think the average player even reached Bonny Village let alone talk to that ghost
>>484837498Nioh 2 fist combat alone blows 90% of ER weapons out of the water
>>484837575Dishonest gotcha for players relying on lock-on
>host takes 1600 from GaiusRemember to bulk upEat your buffs too. They build strong bones.
>>484837549are people really going as high as 200 for invasions now? I've stopped at 139 for duels and 150+ invasions
>6 million shamansReally? According to science, for a successful infusion inside a jar full of flesh and corpses, you need at BEST 1 shaman...Now, let's do some math, eh? Only 300k jars were produced during those years in Enir-Ilim, the biggest jar producer of the realm... so, even if we assume the other big cities did a similar number (which they didn't) we'd get at best 700k jars
Would you own a domesticated cat-sized dragonfly?
>>484837575They're all actually baby astels
>>484837706its impossible to play anything else in that game once you get into the fistgroove
>>484837706nigga that kung-fu shit was so good
>>484837813That thing would eat your face, dude.
>>484836916when you feel like your build is completepersonally I haven't felt the need to go past 160
>>484836916You should be able to stop leveling around 91-100 or so depending on stat requirementsonce you hit level 91 you can reach 54 strength / 60 vitality on a Hero starting class, at which point any further stats are minor returns. Going up to level 100 usually just serves to let you equip heavier armor, but all you really need is 51 poise
>>484837806>are people really going as high as 200 for invasions now?They've always been but mostly on NG+>139I thought it was 138?
>>484836487Nothing breaks Ranni's quest except trying to drug her or attacking her after you become her consort.
>>484837663Imagine having to beat enemies with a staff to cast spells as mage, lol. That's why you aren't a vydiagaem deisigner, anon.
>>484834663>.5 sec openfiltered. even radahn has 3-4 second openings for you to spam fully charged R2s.i reiterate: filtered. stay coping.
>>484837482I don’t k ow wheee to find the item in my inventory
The DLC has way too many graces where enemy patrols will cause them to eventually aggro you after warping and/or respawning at them.
>>484837575They ambush Type B Tarnished from behind and pin her arms to her sides using their forelegs so she can't fight back or cast spells. Then they stick their ovipositors up her pussy fuck her and and lay their eggs inside her. Human wombs, being warm and moist, are ideal environments for dragonfly eggs. The thing is, if the Type B dies or teleleports or whatever, that clears the eggs out of her. So it's actually bad for dragonfly populations. In fact some Type B's have been known to seek out dragonflies with eggs to lay and present herself naked, basically using the dragonflies for lewd oviposition fetish sex and then teleporting back to grace to avoid the consequences
>>484837813Sure. Why not.What's your next move.
>>484837398These are an obvious reference to the "Eyes of the Overworld"Right?I don't think the YouTubers picked this one up yet
What’s the lore behind slugs?
Why don't you hornsent tell me why there were more hornsent after messmer's so called crusade than before? The numbers just don't add up.
>>484837913huh, could you even kill Iji, Blaidd and Seluvius as soon as you see them and still continue as normal?
>>484837957i never had this problem, maybe i just got lucky on the graces where i decided to afk
>>484837883He wouldn't hurt a fly.
Who is Charo and why is their grave hidden?
>>484837706any nioh 2 weapon blows 90% of elden ring weapons out of the waterI love the odachi in sote with sekiro parries, but imagine if you could also do yokai parries and moonlit snow redux as the weapon art
>>484837923You don't need to beat anything to cast shit in Wo Long, retard, you can go into negative spirit with no downside.
>>484837892This anon is in the DLC, I doubt he took your autistic pre-Morgott level meta to consderation.
>>484837972Thats not a thing
>>484837998Re-used asset kino
>>484832258STR is DEFINITELY not the hardest and whoever thinks that is an idiotI started the DLC as faith/int and got ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED. When I switched to full Bull-Goat Armor with STR and Defensive talismans I thought my DPS would suck, but to my surprise even without offensive gear any generic heavy +25 weapon ANNHIALATES bosses with just Lion's Claw and you probably take like 40% of the damage you do as a light/cloth sorcerer/conjurer...
>>484836559Can't say I agree, if everyone started at 20 fragments there would be a lot less difficulty complaints besides Radahn.
>>484838010Cool it with the anti hornsentic remarks
>>484837912you can still duel people at 125 with weapons at +10/25. The calculator shows 126 +8/+19, but most people I'd like to think have maxed out weapons by 125, especially anyone dueling.
ImpressiveVery niceNow let's see the Nioh 2 webms
>>484838010Based
>>484836745you hate it because it's true
>>484836713Noticing this as well. Feel like you need to deliberately level high enough so you avoid the 125 range.
>>484838120it isthough nowadays with the dlc miriam's vanishing makes it even easier
>>484836786lop's dlc is almost guaranteed to btfo sote bigly
>>484838010Our population was already booming at the time, retard, it has no correlation, he still genocided our people
>>484838045Yup. She's cold.
>>484838094You can comfortably finish the entire DLC at level 90-100all you're doing leveling up past that is subjecting yourself to high level invaders
>>484837998They're followers of Zanzibart
>>484838120It is. Type B Tarnished sandbagging to various enemies in the Lands Between so they can indulge in instant loss sex is surprisingly common. If you've cooped or invaded and encountered a Type B, chances are she was up to some freaky shit right before you arrived or left. It's kind of inevitable considering all Tarnished are otherwise effectively immortal due to being able to respawn, people get bored with a world stuck in stasis and distracted from becoming Elden Lord when they lose to that boss for the 100th time. So they start looking for other things to entertain themselves with...
>>484838215>Feel like you need to deliberately level high enough so you avoid the 125 range.This is why 175 will be the standard and not 150.
>please... please collect your skibidiI'm begging you.
>>484837787is that...... someone TELLING me to USE THE MECHANICS OF THE GAME TO MY ADVANTAGE?!????
>>484838067Charo will be the name of the loveable mule-riding bard NPC whose quest we follow throughout fromsoft's next action game.
>>484837998something like this >>484837972
>>484838283wow, what a BITCH
>>484838072>cant dodge or block>no downsides
the dry-leaf feels awful
This fight club shit is awful
If you didn't beat the game RL0, Scadu 0, all naked, bare fists, no consumables, no summons, no talismans.
>>484838492What? What happens if I don't beat the game with all of that?Hello? Anon?
>>484837575Envoys of an unnamed outer god believed to be associated with knowledge. If you look closely, you can actually see that the creatures face more typically resembles that of an earwig, which, in papua-new-guinean traditions and royal literature, is an insect symbolically associated with the name of a mythological tribal king called Ged'yen Ov'nuir. It's easy to deduce from this point that the translators pulled a fast one and anglicised that to 'Gideon Ofnir', who was originally referred as 'Ancient Dragonfly Earwig Man' in the Japanese text.
>>484838442You can dodge AND block with negative spirit retardYou can even deflect with -1000 spirit
>>484838284>You can comfortably finish the entire DLC at level 90-100You're missing the point dumbass. What makes you think that poster is below 100, especially when he's unaware of the so-called RL meta?>all you're doing leveling up past that is subjecting yourself to high level invadersOr he's playing a non-STR build.
>level to 300 to try everything out>hmm surely the arena is empty>nonstop matcheswtf lol
>>484838570Then you didn't beat the game RL0, Scadu 0, all naked, bare fists, no consumables, no summons, no talismans and that's final!
>>484838124How are they re-used?
>Been trying to help hosts kill Consort Radahn>None of them have gotten past the super nuke her does at low HP
what is the lore of the zanzitreeis it really just a gay metaphor for mickey & RAPEDahn spooning
>>484838462I don't understand the point of it being around anymore with the colosseum. It was a thing in DS3 I guess.
>>484838572False, they consented to it
>>484838492there's a streamer who's like halfway through the dlc at sl1 scadu 0I think he killed bayle a couple days ago
How can I make a partisan build pump without 12 buffs
>>484838724I mean the event at ener ilim
hmm what if the land of shadow is literally a shadow of the main base map as in the world is actually flat and not round and the shadowlands is just under the base mapand the sky is just an illusion
>>484838689The giant slugs are from dark souls 3.
is the Demihuman queen near the "You're beautiful" prattling pete Boc's mom? Did I just kill her?
>>484838570You get a talisman called "Illusory Talisman of the Master" that is just a permanent ring of fog in both pve and pvpaccount-bound, can't be dropped.
there is an fc?
>>484837923Spirit goes into negative by a thousand before regenerating, giving you literal free casts once per a few seconds. Magic system is the best thing about wo long and you can cast non stop.
>>484838820Yes. One less demihuman FREAK in the world.
>>484836448he looks like me
>>484838807Yeah bro that sounds about right
why do polearms have all the cool AOWs
>>484839009>There are british "people" browsing /erg/ with me
would you?
>>484838215I had to level my 120 invader to 150 because of this. DLC was deader than dead and all my "far" activity was just grace goblins in LiurniaThe fact that there aren't a tonne of folks pveing the DLC at 120 doesn't surprise me, but the fact that there are still so fucking many losers doing taunter's duels and patches' cave ganks in the main game blows my fucking mind
>>484839086i dont know
>>484836559Has anyone found a build that feels like an evolution to the gameplay that isn't just cheesing bosses with overturned weapons? Seems like there are enough options available to piece something together.
>>484839086do they?
i've never done a dex/arc build... is it good? weapons? is it just bleed shit? (that would be boring)
>>484838807>what if the world is actually flatDon't say this aloudMarika the strumpet will send her vile shadows after you, and before you know it, you won't have any horns to speak of
>>484834164ngl the more I think abotu it the more significant it feelspretty sure the misbegottens and demihumans got subjugated and turned into second class citizens tookind of surprised i havent seen any loretubers or people elsewhere pick up on this, it really seems like caria was on some buffstacking shit
>Bondstone claims it causes the sprite bound to a spritestone to explode>try it on a golem>doesn't make them explodeSHIT GAME
>>484839134Sounds about right. You're a maniac for not doing small activity in Legacy Dungeons. Far is just not worth it.
just finished the dlc on my main. anyone wanna help me beat mohg on my low level to get him into the dlc on xbox?
>>484838939The way the "ashes of war" in there was also similar, it was just a great system to add a lot of variety to the combat system.
>>484839194sekiro parry tearcarian rapier with miriam's vanishing I guess
So is Radagon Marika split personality or just random guy fused with her since her Shaman slave days?
>>484832536>>484832801The lands between pots = souls of dead warriorsland of shadow pots = lashed shaman women grafted to dead corpsesthey are different
>>484839207>storm assault>phantom slash>ice spear>loretta's slash>blackflame tornado
>>484839231arc builds are usually always based around bleeding dummy. You CAN use other statuses I guess? Further still, Faith/Arc is just better anyways, so you can just go with minimum str/dex for equipment in most cases.
>>484839391>break the ring>get crucified and have another entire person stapled onto you
Can someone post close up images of Eochaid's Sword and the Magma Sword?I considered farming the latter to compare them but this is taking ages so fuck that. I want to see how similar they are
>>484839391Marika shat out Radagon just like how Miquella shat out St. Trina.
>>484839231Nah shits fun, think of it as a dex-build that shoehorns you into using more ARC-specific stuff, like Antspur and Flamberge. Your main damage should come from the DEX and ARC scalings flat damage, and just take the status effects on the side as a nice little treat that can synergize with more mechanics and talismans etc.Dont try to be optimal, try to be fun!
>>484839117Will
>>484839512>You CAN use other statuses I guess?Poison is the cooler ailment. Everybody knows this.
there's so many ash of war that are just useless thanks to the super aggro bosses
Has anyone here read ragna crimson? Attempting to larp as him on my next run and I'm wondering if there's a class at the start that fits him best outside of knight. Because of the silverine battle arts I was thinking a magic sword / sword only run. I know ragna sometimes punches and uses his fists but since this isn't nioh, I'm not using fists. From still is still very lazy and that beast claw in the DLC looks like trash
>>484839363Yeah, and you have 6 combat arts at a time, most of them can combo into each other and some are specifically designed to work in strings.They even did "boss weapons" with unique martial arts, sometimes they are so strong they can define your entire playstyle like Lu Bu's halberd giving you a flame buff.
>Lion Dancer with deathblight and addsHAHAHAHAHAFUCK OFF.I'm summoning for this and don't care.
Tummy made for going aaahh PPPPFFFFFFFFFFFFFFTHHHHHBBBBBBBBBBBLBLBLBLBLBLBLBLBBBBBFFFFFFFFF on.
>>484838067Charo is Zanzibart's female counterpart. They are a rebis like Marika/Radagon.
Why the fuck did they make Thollier a guy? We could have had a qt schleepy soff-voiced narcoleptic waifu who awkwardly informs us her only talent is making poison.
>>484839391Radagon was a Numen Tear, used by Marika as a sword to enforce her religion. It wasn't until he met Renalla that he developed himself more
Is it just me or are the hand to hand weapons like goodLike unironically really good.I'm ripping ass with them in pvp like I never thought I would. They have nutty poise damage and stupid range on the R2s while being fast enough to apply pressure.
>>484839769i dont know i havent thought of that
>>484836448Remind me of molerat people from Shin Sekai Yori.
>>484839231dex arc is mostly just bleedstrength arc is more varied, especially in the dlc there's a bunch of good strength/arc weaponswhat you really want is to just focus on arc, and then level other stats to a useful minimum, my arc character right now is like 28str, 22dex, 19faith, 60arc. I think that's the best way to go for the most varied options.
>>484839701Ehh i prefer rot over poison, but really just use both at that point.
>>484839741Nope sorry, I read an article about how humans can't produce their own vitamin C the other day though, it was interesting.
>>484839749Just jump down to a nearby ledge a shoot it 300 crossbow bolts. That's what I did. It can't follow you down there and it doesn't reset its position.
>>484839889We can't produce any vitamin--that's why they're vitamins.
>>484839741He's a literal vagabond who INTmaxxed silver sword arts. So 80INT, Milady or something, and only swordceries.
>>484839358>xboxI'm sorry anon, you might be the only xbro here
>>484838154Data shows that most people at RL125 still have +8 or +9 and only 19 - 22 on their weapons. Only in the arena should you expect them to have maxed weapons. This is a big reason why players do no damage when you invade at RL125.
>>484839769He still has two holes

Qhats the coolest build for dryleaf kungfu fun? Should infuse the fists or the kicks?
>>484840005Thanks
>>484839548They're not even remotely similar my guy
>>484839981Idk what that means but I'm pretty sure we can, like we produce vitamin D and atuff Basically, humans can't produce vitamin C but sour foods like lemons and stuff are really high in vitamin C. Almost every other animal hates sour things but humans like it, and so the theory is that the reason humans like sour things is cause as opposed to kost animals we can't produce the vitamins they have so we evolved to like sour things. It's interesting ideaReally puts into perspective the hit classic, Elden Ring(tm)
>>484839884I would if antspur wasn't the best source of both besides aeonia and the breaths.The first and second rots? Not that slow. Third and fourth? Ain't happening. You can loop poison near needlessly in comparison. Each dagger of a shotgun has obscenely high poison buildup too.Popping it afterwards with poison flower and a high arc build shaves off nearly 20% of a bosses lifebarI like it. But then I run into something bleed immune and I hate it instead.The duality of man.
>>484839753Imagine Leda doing this to him and his cute little giggles during the fact.
>>484838128I don't think it's all about muh difficulty, the gameplay is just getting stale since we've been doing the same shit for over a decade. Even if it's just visual, quickstepping instead of rolling would go a long way to make things feel different. I'd even say get rid of iframes entirely and design attacks so that they can just be physically avoided instead of crutching on an invulnerability system. Deflecting also helps a lot because you face the enemy head on instead of avoiding them which is a lot more fun even if it's still just "press button at the right time to avoid damage".
