>Radahn is uglier than Mohg so what the fuck was Miquella even on
it's not about beauty, it's about sex appeal

miquella is cursed by being childish/immature not only in his body, but in his mind too, so he desires shallow pretty simple things, not things that are actually appealing to someone with mature tastes

hence dumb incest subplot with retarded boring simpleton (radahn) instead of superior choice of malenia

and of course mohg is a connoisseur choice

I beat the game with Keen Sword Lance, Keen Misericorde and Brass shield (Carian Retaliation), though. I took 0 cooperators.

Invading is all about fucking with people
I get annoyed when people try to respect a 1v1 or whatever
I invaded, I got spells and aoe shit
I wanna fuck you all up

Also because when people think they outnumber you and start brainlessly spamming their strongest shit is when it's easiest to turn and fuck them up with one big hoarfrost + adulas

Wrong. Once my tarnished becomes Elden Lord he uses the power of the Elden Ring to restore her to life and make her is own personal concubine. Miquella, also restored, gets to sit in the corner with his microcock locked up; watching as I fuck his bitch.

Radahn is canonically high int just not as high as his family. He's also handsome as fuck. Pic related is him before he got negrofied by spamming gravity too much. Look at him. No seriously look at him. He has nice, tanned but not too dark skin, long beautiful red hair, a strong jawline, a powerful brow ridge you can even see despite having most of his forehead covered, and powerful, yet kindly eyes, eyes you could stare at for hours and get lost in, and lips not too large, not too thin, perfect for placing your own against. And that's not even mentioning his height. Honestly he's perfect for miquella, miquella would unironically be able to sleep in his palms and be comfortable the entire time. No one else can allow that.

Fun fact, Jesus is referred to as the Promised King among many titles in Japanese previously. And the promise is he would return. Radahn's title in the DLC is the Promised King. And he also returned from the death. Before the DLC if you search the Promised King in Japanese you would get Jesus. After the DLC you get Radahn. Fucking Michael Zaki pulling a pretty disrespectful Christianity reference comparing Radahn to literal Jesus

>>485031151
I support marika and horah. I only side with ranni despite being a marikafag because it allows her to finally die and rest and be with her dead shaman family and horah in the afterlife. Godhood is described as torture and a punishment in the dlc, so why not let the woman who murdered her son suffer in what's essentially hell in space for all eternity while she gets to be at peace?

The Marika items you get, like her braid and the spell, have very sad descriptions

here’s a question. isn’t the fact that the greater will left much earlier than we thought a lore inconsistency? we know that placidusax communed with it. so did it only drop off the elden beast and finger mother after leaving the dragons? but then how would the elden ring have existed without the elden beast? maybe i’m getting the timeline wrong though

According to Gnostic belief, before the Big Bang everything was kosher and exists in some perfect state of universal consciousness that knows no suffering etc and is the highest state of divinity . However the Demiurge broke that perfection and created the imperfect universe in which the material realm exists. Material is the poison of existence and is the root cause of suffering as you suffers if you exist in material form. So the highest point is to transcend your material body and exit this material universe
>Tldr: commit a hero and exist as ghost to stop suffering

>disc chucker attacks once every 1.5-2 seconds, need to keep up a rythme of dodging him in between everything else
>the fight is spent kiting spear guy, running out of caster guys spell area, and dodhing the other while focusing on one to stagger first
It was an actual 200 iq multi boss design
Of course, the shitters complain, because they cant use strategy beyond "haha ima use OP weapon art and just spam it while summons gets aggro hahahaha" and the content streamers (not all of them mind you, i saw some girl gamer variety streamers who could handle them just fine, thats a double fuck you to the shitters. And of course fromsoft nerfs the fight into the ground so hard they may as well just have removed it.

And what sort of difficulty do we get in the DLC? a bunch of literal trial and error attacks where you are required to use a shield to not get hit the first time.
- Lion dancer boss who is 400% bigger than he should have been and fucks up the camera while wiggling around hitting you with his body doing.
- Messmer who does AoE attacks and you need to know to run under him to not get hit by his takes up half the area with a 2.5k damage aoe.
- Enemies that raise their sword and then teleport to you and hit in 0.3 ms
- enemies that have attacks that true combo into each other and are impossible to i-frame so you need to get away
- those knights that body slam you from 25 yards away

I dont mind bosses that are fast and require good reflexes but attacks that are basically guaranteed to hit you unless you know exactly how to dodge them beforehand are shit. they have always been shit in these games. Elden ring is the first soulslike that has these attacks every other boss, or regular enemy.

From all that I have seen from Elden Ring so far, Godhood = Really bad.

Frenzy Flame = Worse than Godhood since it fucks up everything.

Demigodhood = Almost as bad as true godhood.

Mortalhood = Ehh.

Death = Release.

Being alive = Doomed.

Being alive in the Lands Between = Royally fucked and doomed.

My greatest problem with radahn is that if you just remove his cross slash attack he becomes an infinitely better boss. Sure, it suck that most of his attacks only have a one hit punish window, but that wouldn't be as bad if he didn't just get to take a chunk of your health for free whenever he feels like throwing out his attack.

He has an attack where her hits left then right(or vice versa, I can't remember) and then he launches an X shaped slash forward. Pretty sure it's impossible to dodge all 3 with a medium roll unless you happen to have been on uneven ground with him higher. At least one will always hit you

i wonder if they think that everyone should just use a shield and if they aren't then they should be just stacking insane amounts of damage to outdamage the bosses undodgable attacks or using sekiro tear. shields and the tear trivialize so much of the combat though. just dodges and jumps are by far the most interesting way to play the game but they are punishing you for playing that way so hard. they don't understand their own combat system and how to actually make it harder at the end game.

The spell exclusively scale on it hard for damage too thats why maternal is the strongest staff in the game, because until Hack Software nerfs it no other spell is worth casting ever

>>
>>485035297
positioning can be a factor but usually even if you're in the right spot theres still a random factor. my favorite is attacks where they almost never do the follow up even if you punish them but as soon as you try to use that opening to heal instead they follow it up 100% of the time. such cancer.

I agree, the DLC was sort of disappointing. It was decent but not 10/10 or "the best DLC ever made" like so many people are saying. I would have been happier with 1 zone about the size of liurnia, then a rework of existing factions making them covenants and adding faction specific vendors. OR just do a better job of certain things. like the entire woods zone could have been a mini legacy dungeon instead of the biggest and emptiest zone ever.

I have a theory. I was watching Preston Jacobs, he brought up that grrm likes writing in hiveminds or fused consciousness, I read some of the thousand worlds stories he recommended and found examples of these. Then I looked at elden ring, specifically hyetta, shabriri, and the player at the end of the lord of frenzy ending then took into account the frenzy flame wanting to burn everything into one. Could it be possible that hyetta isn't necessarily shabriri but is instead the frenzy flame entity who'd long since absorbed both her and shabriri's consciousness and uses both to manipulate the player? Could the player be subsumed by the fused consciousness of the frenzy flame during its respective ending as well?
>>
>>485036262
60 vig is fine, thats what i went in with at rl110. 40% hp per hit is what i was seeing too from that guy. you'll get a fuckton of runes in the dlc so if you can get past that guy probably just keep playing and level as you go.

the dlc is sort of balanced around lvl 150 with endgame upgraded weapons.

No.Hyetta is completely ig grant of even what the grapes are that she's asking you to feed her. Shabriri might be an agent of the Frenzied Flame, but he too is separate.

Also it needs to be said, there is nothing after the Frenzied Flame destroyed the world. It ends all concepts of disparity or separation. There is no you, or me, or even a planet or stars. Literally everything melts to nothing, even nothingness

I think I know who messmer and melina's father is. I don't think it's a giant, radagon, a snake, or godfrey. I don't think they have a father. I think these two were specifically aspects of marika made manifest, much like millicent and her sisters are. I also think that's how malenia got her ability to create fragments of herself from. Miquella inherited their parents dual nature having a female half, malenia inherited marikas ability to essentially asexually reproduce. It would also explain melina's shock at boc being born through sexual intercourse, she and her brother messmer weren't.

The sorcery itself scales with int like all sorceries, but the bleed scales with arc, so high int and arc can make it hit hard, faith actually has nothing to do with its damage.

Radagons ass is necessary to understanding the lore too. Two wars the golden order fought against lunaria and they couldn't genocide them in either, see this is how they won the second war, and how rennala fell for radagon, mid combat he MOONed her, you know, the term for showing someone your ass? He did that too her and she was immediately enraptured by his plump posterior and ended their war but on the strict condition they marry so she could bury her face in it every night. Ranni, radahn, and rykard were born of their mother having a fetish for fat asses.

>>485037226
They are butterflies, they were born in the lands between & Messmer was specifically given a big to-do about leaving to be eternally emo in his crusade against the shadowlands.

incants are like wizard from D&D MMO where you pick spells before encounters to counter the specific encounter

and Int is like the sorc who has less spell variety (or in ERs case damage types) and you just over power shit with those spells. IF you dont like changing talismans for spells then just go int and either choose charge up spells or not. (or ignore the charge up talisman because its only like 15-20% damage which isnt game breaking)

you are worrying toom uch about the minmax damage. just minmax for fav spell then use others for utility or situationally.

I don't get it, why do people act like this DLC was difficult?
I tried playing it and it seemed incredibly easy, I died like once or twice and that was just to falling off a cliff which is kind of lame
yeah I mean there's some minor strategy stuff like I switched to fingerprint shield for messmer but otherwise this DLC couldn't be much easier.
>>
>>485036525
>>485037294
It's entirely possible that this is indeed canon it explains why rykard has blonde hair. It's also entirely possible that, sharing a body, radagon and godfrey fucked too, godfrey plowing him so hard it unintentionally impregnated marika. Note the color of melinas hair, it's the color you'd get by mixing radagons red hair and godfreys white hair. Notice too that, messmer actually does have slight strands of salmon hair just like melina.

There's a direct correlation to low iq violent men and their love for fat asses. Many whites imprisoned for violent crimes for example were found to be into large asses even before being imprisoned, not to mention blacks and hispanics.

Meanwhile there's a direct correlation between women who like man ass and high iq but mentally unstable women. They're more likely the ones into man ass.

Both fit godfrey and rennala respectively.

I've thought that about Melina for a long time. She's very similar to Millicent. I did fall into the Radagon was Messmer's dad meme for a while but I think your statement makes more sense within the logic of the game, given that the DLC connects them so intensely. It's also pretty heavy handed on the Mary holding Jesus imagery with Marika and Messmer.

I saw Godefroy at a grocery store in Limgrave yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hands shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Golden Rune [13]s in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any glintstone infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

Yes. I wanted glintstone & scarlet rot perfumes, I wanted a few more light greatswords, I wanted another Moonlight Greatsword but different, I want more martial arts. I would suggest a rival school of martial arts to the dry leaf sect maybe some Horrah style shit or even some Carian hand to Hand where you manifest little carian magic blades as your AoW.

I also wanted Radagon to be the hybrid staff/seal

They'll take the idea that the serpent's essence was sealed within messmers eyed and the geq's within melina's. They will also take the "radagon was a spy sent to destabilize lunaria" theory

in a gank scenario a mage doesn't need any extra help
miriam's vanishing doesn't help him escape when someone closes the gap and slaps him around, it worse than rolling
if he uses miriams when he sees someone coming towards him and then starts a roll during its iframes, good job you accomplished the same thing as if you just walked away and rolled when they got close and it cost you 9 fp and covered less distance

Marika was the GEQ. She led the serpents to destroy the old order of Placidusax.

Good morning
Stop crying about Radahn, nobody cares
Every thread its the same arguments, over and over
If 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.

3. lure him to the corner on your left as you enter, he'll get caught on the other side and be unable to hit you, and you'll need spells/abilities that can hit around the corner to chip away at him (ie zamor ice storm)

if gankers just hold up a madness torch what are you gonna do? the only way to fight it 1v1 involves mass focus + bolus and rushing them down with gap closing weapon arts (or outrange them with sniper spells that will never hit if they are awake)
but in gank scenarios there's no hope, one person can proc madness and the other hit you 3-4 times because it doesn't even wake up like normal madness

No. I liked DS1-DS2 PVP and DeS to a certain extent. Just because you're enjoying eating shit does not mean that I have to do it too. ER's PVP is L2 spam gank fest, on top of everything it's laggy on PC due some weird iping inflation. Even now after co-oping and helping hosts with DLC I can't comprehend how anyone can enjoy whatever ER throws at you. Invaders getting constantly shafted by fog walls or just bodied by 3 people spam. For around 50 hours not a single invader won a fight against people I've been helping to just get through the game. It's miserable.

guard counters feel unplayable even in pve let alone pvp, they're just too slow
if you do it against a boss you have the exact same window to guard counter as you do to use a weapon art, and you could just hit them with a far more powerful WA than a guard counter

Greathammers get 125% damage and 560% poise damage on a guard counter that comes out slow as molasses. Giant Hunt is a 220% damage / 600% poise damage. Hell even the biggest thundercock dick greathammer on a heavy build with a guard counter deals less damage and poise than just using a cipher pata unblockable blade at twice the speed.

GW might be gravity itself, or maybe the void of space, or if its something more tangible maybe its a giant black hole that a lot of stuff orbits. or maybe the lightless abyss is just one interpretation or representation of the GW. its also questionable if the GW really "sends" things, or acts with an intelligent purpose, or "spawns" anything. its probably more like the frenzy flame, where it just is a difficult to understand force in the world that that just exists and give people profound ideas when they encounter it or try to comprehend it, but its not something that can meaningfully be called a being or have a purpose.

The new greathammer gets a special interaction with guard counters. So I'm sure that one's probably better for that playstyle. And as good as Giant Hunt is, it may come out at the same time as a Greathammer guard counter, but it recovers (marginally) slower.

The shade summons were also a neat idea. You get to be summoned on a more limited amount of time to help a host through a specific pain point as it was easier to die to the pve than it was in DaS1 (excluding shit like being tossed into nothingness in Anal Rodeo or raped by wall ghosts)

DaS3's blue's practically didn't work, had aggressive group priority for invasions, and the coolest addition it had was purples. Which were admittedly pretty cool.

smithscript dagger comes with piercing throw default, and its the only weapon you can use either piercing throw or scattershot throw custom ashes on, which makes it inexplicable that they put an ash of war piercing throw dung beetle into the game because it does literally nothing
can't use those throwing weapon ashes on any of the other throwing weapons with custom ashes. And piercing throw sucks

scattershot throw is actually really good, but its wasted on throwing daggers because they have such low ar
it is however the default skill of claws of night, which have very high AR and are extremely busted right now because scattershot throw deals stupid high damage and bleed buildup, it hits very long range and a huge arc with no damage dropoff (unlike smithscript weapon projectiles)
and on top of that, scattershot throw has melee hitboxes, so at point blank range you get easily 2000+ pve damage (BEFORE skibis, ie 2000 on the secluded cell giant) along with 300%+ status buildup
and on top of that claws of night R1 is ridiculously strong because it deals lopsided amounts of damage for claws and only has a 6% damage penalty for power stancing so its dealing 188% per hit
and on top of that, scattershot throw counts for headshots and lands bonus damage too easily from them


This is all one obvious casualty of the DLC development being rushed and unfinished

>hair isn't light red + blonde
Strawberry blonde is a natural hair color and that's what she is. Google it if you don't believe me.
>It's red + white.........
It is not red and white. I'm going to assume you aren't colorblind and you only being stubborn. But that's not how genetics works. That's not how hair works. That's not how this color is formed.
1. Godfrey's natural hair color is lost to time because he is old, we cannot assume anything about hair color from him. On paper, it could as easily be him as any other nameless lovers Marika acquired over the years. She canonically has several unspecified children to however many different fathers. But...
2. It can be assumed that Godfrey did not have red hair because red hair is such an important and rare trait. It is essential part of each redhead's character. Even Ranni couldn't burn it all off. Red hair is implied to be genetically descendant from the giants. And Godfrey was just a really impressive man who rose up to demigodhood. His ancestors were just nameless barbarians and he was an outsider that came from the badlands.
3. She has blonde genetics from her mother, who is Marika, which is why she has the slight blonde tint.
4. We should assume her father had red hair.
5. On paper it is also possible that an ancestor had red hair, but is too impractical and vague of a what-if to discuss. That conversation doesn't go anywhere unless for some reason From Software gives us more information they won't

Anon, Malenia literally tells you that she didn't have a natural birth. Her, and maybe Messmer too, had some sort of prototype Erdtree birth. Her and her brother probably did get birthed while Marika/Radagon was one person, which can account for the reddish hair, the cursed bloodline, and the butterfly motif.

Goldmask is the only one who actually understands the Great Will. Everyone else accomplishes nothing and only in fact makes things worse in some way. Goldmask is the only one who offers a choice that has no cons, only pros.

Goldmask is a male so liking him makes you homosexual and that is a bad thing. Ranni is a pretty girl who loves you and lorelets can only cope by making claims that cannot be backed up that she won't ackshually love you. You get to MARRY Ranni and be with her forever. Ergo, Ranni is for heterosexuals, everyone else is for gays and transexuals therefor Ranni is better and Goldmask is cringe.

Man I hate how Twinblades feel like this perfect "fast 2H weapon"
but it's mostly used by power stance bleed cheese faggots
if you use one Twinblade, it's basically just an alternative to Katana....
and you'd think for such a wide weapon that looks PERFECT for 2H it would have excellent blocking stats, but it doesn't

Uchigatana? 45% phys and 30 guard boost
Twinned Knight Swords? 47% phys and 31 guard boost

what the actual FUCK? why can't there be a decently fast, decent range, 2H weapon with good guard stats? what's the point of making it like a staff with two swords if it doesn't also have better block??

The most disappointing part of Abyssal Woods for me wasn't the enemies or how empty the field was. It was the southern part being completely unexplorable. I took this screenshot of it from the finger ruins early on because it really piqued my interest. Really weird how they put Midra's Manse between two areas and made one unexplorable making a big hole in the middle of the map, I'd rather they put it the end of the second area even if there was nothing to see there.

Despite agreeing with you i'd like to point out which game we're playing and who made it. The hair color is shown to be inherited directly from the father each kid of radagon having the same shade of red and each blonde kid of marika has marika's exact blonde. We actually know that three things can affect hair colors for these types of characters, aging, curses, and the circumstances of their birth. Each of marika's kids are uniquely cursed, but look at melina's hair specifically, it likely has to do with the curse she has altering her hair color, just as utilizing the rune of death later alters it again. That salmon color comes from a curse, it's not natural, BUT based on the color we can guess what her natural hair color would've been. The same as messmer's who's the same as radagon's and malenias and radahn's. Red the same shade of red infact. Not only that however, and not only does she have the butterflies, her, ranni, messmer, and malenia(what little we see) all have similar facial features, these features obviously didn't come from marika so they'd have to come from Radagon.
>>
>>485045712
Ranni has four arms because she is emulating her teacher.

Miquella doesn't have four arms, he has a poorly connected spirit to his physical form. His spirit arms will mimic & trail his physical arms except at the end of his intro cut scene & such where he reaches his one hand up

The build you're doing with a few points in strength to use the dlc club that's weapon skill scales exclusively with arcane.
Poison Moth Flight gets an upgrade.
you're doing the fun build. Just pick up and use whatever suits your fancy and throw poison on it.

I'd recommend being strong enough for a shield + an occult weapon of your desire to beat the piss out of enemies immune to poison/bleed.
Exultation is pretty nice. I think you can get the mushroom crown pretty early to support the poison lifestyle.

Radagon coloration + marika coloration + destined death coloration = melinas exact hair coloration.

I'd like to add that the shade of white godfreys hair is comes when someome with blonde hair ages. Both marika and godfrey were likely blonde at some point.

>>485044302
I mostly agree. Except for the prototype Erdtree birth. I headcanon that the Fell God didn't curse Messmer directly but cursed Marika with Radagon. And his formation was rough. Marika got knocked up in the process with Messmer and Melina. Messmer ended up being the Fell God's Ace in Marika's hole. Messmer being born first Fell God Flame'd the womb and most of her eggs on his way out. Leaving Melina burned and bodyless, and making Marika's womb a pretty hostile environment. As made evident with the high curse-to-normal demigod ratio.

What are some games where poison is actually a GOOD damage type
its been so consistently shit in the soulsborne series

>play diablo 2
>poison dagger does 4 damage per second for 300 seconds when a hammer does 14000 damage
>play d&d
>95% of creatures with resistance to poison are fully immune to it, vastly more than any other element, and is also on shit spells like acid arrows
>play skyrim
>poison almost exclusively to putting potions in NPC inventory and you can just slip them a paralyze potion anyway

It's usable. If that's what you're worried about. Though obviously it won't be optimal. Only has FTH scaling IIRC. Get in there, champ.
>>485047515
Do you mean just poison damage from the ticks itself or games where poison has a lot of interaction.

I poisoned the everyloving shit out of everything in Nioh 2 and used their blighted corpses to do big damage.

Dark hair often grays differently from lighter hair. Judging by her skintone it's more likely he just banged a swarthy woman. Godfreys hair color matches more with someone who had lighter colored hair. His hair was anywhere from a lighter brown than nepheli-blonde.

>is the XXX staff any good
>Is the XXX seal any good

Elden ring's retarded scaling system just turns all staves/seals into a single number and a passive bonus, that's it. You only use the one that has the highest damage for your stat build and then you put the passive effect in offhand. Its simple and dumb
If you want a boost to thorns you put the thorns staff in your offhand. You don't use it mainhand because it has lower damage than other staves. Int builds can use carian regal or lusat. Arcane builds use maternal. Faith builds use staff of the guilty. Int+fai builds use prince of death.
Its not like there's any tradeoffs of movesets or hitboxes or weapon arts or infusions like there are with weapons.
>>
>>485047817
Won't work for the staff at all with arcane. You'd need to use Albinauric to boost the bleed and a hell of a lot of arcane to boost it to respectable values.
Faith is fine for raw damage and it has decent enough base bleedup that you'll get your bleeds.

patas are pretty good. turns out giving the fast fist moveset huge range is strong, and still really strong as a one handed weapon with a shield too. im still not sure what ash to give them. braggart's is good for that stamina increase for my shield and since pata guard counter is damn fast.

Invaders, do you set up your characters/builds legitimately or do you juse CE everything in? I want to make some new characters to invade with but I don't have the time or mental energy to go through the game again and again to do it.
>>
>>485043998
We do actually have something. Look at the jar people. No seriously look closely. They all either have white, blonde, or pinkish hair. It's likely melina's hair color came from her shaman relatives rather than marika or radagon.

I'm reminded now of something I realised when the game released:
I don't think you can have good invasions past a certain level, anymore. The amount of shit happening on screen with flashy spells and Ashes makes the whole affair a joke.
DaS3 had this, sort of, but you work around it better positioning and map knowledge.

Some video had a breakdown of why its glitched and its a from netcode issue, its hitting through rollframes during lag before the client sends the host the info to say their roll began or something, and the hitbox too, I didn't follow all the technical stuff
its some serious fucking bullshit especially considering the damage

Some of the jar people have strands of blonde, pink, and golden hair. She likely got it from marika family not her dad.

Why are some of Romina's attacks so poorly telegraphed like her rolling attack, that one moves where she moves her front side a little and damages you and then instant AoE? I've noticed this when co-oping and she seems to have terrible tells.

DaS3 for starting this direction was still tame at the upper end even on launch compared to launch DaS2 where the simple act of hitting somebody too many times could one shot you or being too close and getting forbidden sun'd straight back to the bonfire

Though I guess the difference is that DaS2 fix that while DaS3 started getting flashier with higher damage wombos being tied to weapon arts.
Anyways point being. I think the point we're at was always an inevitability with how flashy shit kept getting.

I don’t cheat but if you just purely want an invader character and don’t want to play through the whole game again then just cheat the character. The only reason I don’t? I would lose my will to play if I’m not collecting shit and fine tuning everything over 100 hours. Doesn’t feel like my character. Feels like someone else’s.

its straight sword length and has very good damage. id say it shits on straight swords in terms of speed and shits on fists in terms of range. scales well on heavy and quality so you can grease it up nicely or even give it the braggart roar for that nice buff across damage defense and stamina. it likes the heavy attack change but its not really its selling point. its real strength is that it can poke really well with a shield and guard counters fast.

However the doll face for ranni and the ghost face for ranni look very similar with a slight difference in the nose and lips. It's likely whoever the doll is of is a relative of ranni's.
