clai pan threadclai pan board
FUCK miquella
I just got this game and the DLC and have never played a Souls game before
>>485129814my opening post is calling you a fat homosexual, retard
Leave your shitty raid in the last thread, faggots
Why did they hate the happy ending so much
>>485130094With pleasure!
>>485129924omg miquella hi
Miquella DLCMiquella threadMiquella general
are these supposed to be discs or orbs? i saw a mod refer to them as orbs, and i always assumed they were disks>>485129939yeah it's not worth it to put anything in mind at that point, if you're just using it for weapon reqs and won't be casting
Melina molested me while I was asleep
Did the Radahn ending kill the Miquella spanking poster? I liked that guy.
Does seamless co op work now
clai pan makin co-op niggas seethe AGAIN? thats my nigga man
>>485130282ive never related to a character more than miquella
>>485129924give me a pure faith build tailsman selection
Miquella is my wife. I am Miquella’s Tarnished.
>get to final fight>Radahn out of nowhere>muh consort>beat him>check the memory cutscene>waahh Radahn be my consortTruly the gayest ending.And shit underwhelming boss fight. The arena was also kinda retardedWhat's the point of the pronged gateWhy is EVERYTHING made of corpses?
>>485130601Find out in ELDEN RING 2
>>485130295Yumejoshis won. Fujos too.
So why does Marika love the tarnished again?
>>485130601They made the tower out of saints, i.e. the criminals and shaman folk that they stuffed into jars.They divine gate is powered by corpses.
>>485130710>Marikawhomst? The only characters that matter are miquella (before dlc) and miquella (after dlc).
>>485130710She doesn't. She's just using him.
/FSG/ IS DEAD!!!
>invade into a dead level with 3 people standing next to me as I spawn>instant unenduring frenzy right as I spawn>use spawn invulnerability to run away>get this friend request
>clai pan posters
Missed the jump>be blue>shadow keep, specimen storage>red is floors above us, host just stands there as the dude falls down and impales him on Midra's sword, oneshotSometimes I hate this job.>Mogh's funhouse, boss fog>waiting on this dickwad to get another gold>red invades>notonmywatch.jpg>makes beeline for the host>lol sike he separates us>but now he's trapped on the elevator with me>pull out old reliable (no not rivers) and bleed that redfaggot>dip my balls down his throat>go back, hosts bows to me, gets his second summon>host (mage) does his job and hangs back, spamming spells.while me and fellow gold go town on hornfucker>we win, host Raptures while we do ring gesturesSometimes I love this job
Would it be so hard to add a silver tear enemy to each of the boats and have them drop a piece of an armor set, or something? Holy fuck those gloveworts pissed me off.
>>485130950yeah, punt him like a football
/dsg/troon raid
>host spends so long buffing in front of the fog gate that an invader has time to spawn in, walk up, and kill us bothWhy do they do this? I didn't even know his world had been invaded.
>Want to do a Death Knight cosplay>Weapons primarily scale with strength>Electric part of weapon damage scales off dex>Incantations part scales off faith>Still need to level mind if I wanna use the incantations more than a couple of times.I forgot how shafted electric cosplay is in this game.
>get to kill evey god present in TLB except Ranni and MarikaFUCK
>>485131359>>get to kill evey god present in TLB except my wivesNice
who summons the sorcery warriors / giant fighting near east liurnia / liurnia highway?
Slurmy thread, needs more clai pan thobeit
>>485131359You watch Marika fade to dust in the Age of Stars ending and you shouldn't kill Ranni even if you could.
>>485131265That's still better than the hosts that never buff and die in a couple hits from the boss.>>485131359Marika might be barely better than a vegetable at this point. If you wanna kill Ranni just go for the Frenzied Flame ending. Or cuck her out of ever becoming relevant by going for the Perfect Order ending.
I beat Radahn solo with MSS pokes today. I DID beat the DLC, and there's nothing you goalpost-moving spergs can do about it
i hate those disgusting niggas like you wouldn't believewhat's the lore about them?
>>485131350Only the lightning step and final lightning bolt scales with Dex.Faith scales the lightning damage from regular attacks, and Str scales the regular attacks and skull splitter drop. At least that is what I heard. This weapon is kind of a mess.
>>485131654But you still didnt beat clai pan
Trying to do the 1v5 fight on no fragments but I'm getting my ass kicked, I just can't kill them fast enough even with stunlock shit before they spawn too many to fight at once, whats the best ash of war for instagibbing NPCs
>>485131745deathblight
eldog really yemming it up in here
>>485131682>Faith scales the lightning damage from regular attacksThat would be a first in this game.
>>485131681Uhh i think the hornsent or whoever ppl living in the shadow realm were turning into them it was some sort of leprosy plague thing and in a way ot was a relief to turn into them from a hornsent i think but it also seemed to be very scary and painful and yeah idfk man but the ppl who treated them didnt turn into bugs weirdly enough
>>485130871>>485130873Aww man...
>>485131745Use bleed and Mimic TearThey have bloated HPI think Moore has like 40k
>>485131580TOTAL OMEN DEATHTOTAL HORNSENT DEATHTOTAL EMPYREAN DEATHTOTAL OUTER GOD DEATH
>>485131948Total Clai Pan Death
On a scale of 1 to 10 how good is Armored Core 6Beaten the DLC twice now, I don't think that I want to do it a third time on my INT character
>>485131745Did you complete Thiollier's and Ansbach's quests so you can summon them? Also I did that fight with the big Katana.
>>485131681Might have been a dropped plotline.They are Hornsent that is afflicted with a disease that turns them into flies, but the disease does not affect people with kind hearts.I think maybe this disease might have been tied with the Shamans, because the whole healing abilities they were specialized with, but who knows.
Hey guys what's up?
>>485131681Frozen maggots are fed to prisoners until they turn into man-flies, fly mold is harvested for pot innards.
Gemmy bread
>>485132006>but the disease does not affect people with kind hearts.So why does that cunt hornsent we invades us after we summon him to kill Messmer not turn into one of them
Once I beat the dlc I'm doing a lorethrough and I'll make my own stuff for what I find lackluster. Lots of placeholder item in this game, I think Miyazaki is suffering from success.
>>485131359if you don't do ranni's quest, she is likely killed or has to stay in hiding.
>>485130295>Surprise her with a Messmer cosplay>Fuck her brains out>Dump her anyway for being retardedIt's that easy
>>485131832just took a shower why is my fsg thread dead can someone bake it for me:( >>485132006That big dead momma fly was fucked up man. Kinda glad i didnt have to fight one of those. Also wish there was more about the fly plague. Pretty interesting stuff visually. And I always like weird plagues in my fantasy stories. Reminds me of leper colonies in asia.
Am I misinterpreting or does the new, fancier St. Trina sword actually do LESS sleep on hit than the one from the base game? Also, on players what is the functional difference between sleep and eternal sleep? I know it puts non-boss enemies into a permanent sleep state but I have no idea what it does to players
>>485132216Its been the case for a while now. They went for a pretty ambitious project with making Elden Ring open world and I think that even though ER is better than mot open world games already, From really suffered
>>485132171Isn't his face turning into worms?
>>485132341That’s a mask made of petrified caterpillars. It’s like a weird religious mask they use because they think it shuts out impure thoughts
>>485132309It's identical on players. It's a straight downgrade in PvP.
>It's another "/dsg/ troons can't be arsed to keep their own thread alive so they raid /erg/ with their namefag circlejerk" episode
I always use NPC summons.Not because I need them to beat the boss, but because it is thematically correct for storyline purposes.
Why were there little snakes inside Messmer's eye?
>>485132309iirc takes more fp from the sleepypersonlongest ss in the gamebetter damage but worse sleep build up>>485132341Grotesque mask constructed from countless solidified caterpillars. A ritual implement of the greater potentates of Bonny Village. Used to ward off thoughts of impurity, doubt, temptation, and other wickednesses one is vulnerable to while absorbed in divine ritual.So no.>>485132550sowwy…
why does backstep exist? Does it even do anything other than fuck you if you accidentally use it instead of rolling?
I can't make a hybrid mage work in dueling man. Its tough at 150. Your damage is ass. I've gotten hate mail just from spamming rancor and discs of light, as it isn't one of my only options, kek.
>>485131681that first village is interestingthere's the one hornsent shade who buffs them and throws formless mother flies at you.
>>485132604If you remove the clothes from his model, his snakes are actually going *through* his body, they're more like parasites infesting a host that play along in combat.
>>485132604He’s cursed with an abyssal serpent living in his body like a parasite. The eye he yoinked out was a Soreseal Marika had given him to keep it subdued, so he basically takes the restricter off the snake so he can use all of his crazy snake powers.
>>485132641Meant to be a spacing tool but it usually doesn’t work out in pve and pvp
>>485130284its the light in the eyes of the grace blessed. not really a physical object
I want to powerstance curved swords, which ones don't suck
>>485132728int/faith isn't good below like 200
>>485132585>CURSE YOU BAYLEsame brother
>>485131350minimum str for requirement40 dex + radagon icon for max cast speeda ton of fth for damage
Will it ever be topped?
>never saw the summon sign to assist hornsent or leda in the shadow keepDid I miss something? I swear the fucking NPC quest lines are always the worst thing in Souls games. They're especially bad and convoluted in ER.
>>485132273The fly people are a strange thing, because you would think it would be a bigger deal, since it was pretty much wiping out the Hornsent population that Messmer didn't burn to the ground.It also not affecting those that showed compassion makes me think it was supposed to be important to a wider storyline. It's such a strange detail to a otherwise small bit of world building, with what is essentially a fantasy version of leprosy.
>>485130172Well, my suggestion would be to get a good 100% physical block shield, learn to Guard Counter, and then start collecting and using Ash summons like they're pokemon.
>>485132953>>485132728Yeah and you just get spammed by backhand blade while you run around trying to cast shitty ass hybrid spells like a dumbfuck.
>>485133061why would I do minimum strength when the Death Knight weapons scale primarily with strength?
>>485133119I saw it on my first blind playthrough they are 2 big glowing summons signs
>>485132314They should take like 10 years when making Elden Ring 2. Kadokawa should just dump them on a private island and let them be as relaxed as possible while they code.
>>485133091Ehy is it good? Never used
>>4851319985/10 it's boring menu driven motherfuckery
>>485133227Yea, I'm standing right where they're supposed to be. They're not there.
>>485132759>>485132764Interesting. We have trees, snakes, fingers, worms, caterpillars and whatever those lamprey things are at the finger ruins are, those happy blue ghost worms. Is there some sort of penis symbolism going on?
>>485133119They’re on that little outdoor area before the elevator with all the boats on racks and Shadow Militia dudes, near the open ledge across from the area the flame knight patrols. One sign for Leda and one for Hornsent
>>485133280did u kill messmer or do the ansbach invasion already?
>>485133230>high base damage and great scaling for quality builds with faith investment >great for clearing areas because health absorption from dead enemies>special ability knocks down many enemies, even some bosses, does high damage and restores health>best greatsword moveset
>>485133119Yea you walk past them while exploring, that said their questline continues even if you miss it
>>485133324The soul is stored in the balls
>>485133428>best greatsword moveset>not the claymore movesetWrong.
>>485133351Yea, I know. I'm standing right there. >>485133396No, I haven't done either. I think I've gone through enough of Ansbach's quest line that the summon signs are going to be there when I go check though, so maybe that's the problem.
>>485133091Just used this to beat rahdahn>mimic and me both land killing blow at the same time>yell TOGETTTTTTHER!!! loud enough to wake my roommate
>>485133428It's a faith weapon, not a arcane?
>>485133576Mimic tear? Ydbtg
Shit tranny game
>>485133576Dawwww that's fun
Is there a weapon class between Greatsword and Colossal Sword??
I love dogsBut I fucking hate Fromsoft dogs
>>485133576big normalfag vibes
radahn festival 2: gravity boogaloo
Do you prefer the setting of Elden Ring, Bloodborne, or Dark Souls? Is ER the best, in terms of lore and aesthetic?
>>485133732Great Katanas :)
Alright then, I'm taking my NG+ character through the DLC. Wish me luck
>>485133740What of sweet, gentle Maliketh?
Shit tranny general
>>485133781DeS
>inventory is full. Cannot retrieve itemIs this a bug? I already emptied most of my inventory and dumped it all on chest but this message keeps popping off. I want to equip sleep pots in my inventory.
>>485133880what?
>>485133841truth. crazy how bad it got in so little time. oh well, it's past time for me to stop wasting time here, there's nothing to be gained or learned here
Anyone else kinda feel bad for radagon? He seems like more of a main character than me. Kinda feel like he earned his lordship.
>>485133781sekiro*tips katana*
>>485132641it's alright in pvp since you can do a lunging attack with a single r1 from it or it can be a feint and distance creator without a roll.
>>485132728if you want to mage you have 3 options below level 200.72 INT72 FTH28/53 FTH/ARC
>>485133807He's not a dog, he's a wolfBut I hate him too
>>485133781I like Dark Souls and Bloodborne way more.
>>485133535>gaymoreBack to das2 retard-kun
>>485133510prostatewhich is why women don't have souls
>>485133558>his signs aren't there eitherI'm so fuckin confused.
>>485133740I love fucking dogsButi hate Fromsoft dogs
leper sovls
>FROM hates Melina so much they removed the riny bit of lore about her in the DLCI will never understand. Also>Roderika, Nepheli, Selen, Latenna, Rya, Jolan, Anna, Millicent, Leda, Romina>can't make any of them your consortWHY THE FUCK DO I PLAY THIS TRASH FOR!?
>>485134137???
>>485133629Yeah faith for some reason>>485133654I don't care lmao>>485133761I've been here since burger king shrine of storms duels, foh
>>485133781dser is an amalgamation of them all, and it suffers for that
>>485133781I really hated ER's general vibe and world building for a long time, but I think that the DLC has fleshed things out just enough that I like it.For being so huge, it's very barebones when it comes to the world building.Didn't help that a lot of the coolest elements went largely unexplored: THE DLC desperately needed a deeper dive on the cosmic elements.
>be funny frog man>my first attack is my 800 damage slow as fuck bubble>their first attack is hefty rot pot into madness pots
>>485134278Das2 is the only game where claymores are any good
>>485133881ANYONE?
>>485134424Deserved for trying to be cuteYou're supposed to feed the cycle of hate by being a turbo nigger
>>485134512Idk
>>485134512idk
>>485134441The Claymore is great in DaS, what are you talking about?The move set is the reason people love it.
>>485134589>>485134528Kill yourself faggot
>beat messmer at scadu 10 with endure caestus>reloaded save, beat him again with the power of blocking with a 2H GS>summoned hornsent during the 2nd phase and let him deal the finishing blow, got some neat dialogueAlright the fight is starting to grow on me. Might reload for a 3rd round. It's so damn flashy.
>>485134512Shit tranny game and general, sorry
>>485134441You didn't play DeS and Das1 i take it
>>485134441I will assume that you are trolling
>>485134441Claymore is good in Elden Ring name a better Greatsword besides DMG BB
>>485134527I have to preserve my cuteness, it's the only thing I have going for me
>>485133880oh i get it now nvm
>>485133781They all feel the same. Dead world with nothing but ghouls that attack you on sight. Only Sekiro felt like you're not just fighting zombies, and there are still regular people at stake.
>>485134682You bumped a question that didn't have am answer, what'd you expect? We didn't answer cause we dk
>useless spell>useless halberdwhy did romina get shafted like this
Just foud out about the dragon transformation. How viable is it? Does it scale with faith or arcane? Is it fun
Which DLC questlines should I do?
>>485134682/??
>>485135002all of them
>>485134773I agree that Claymore is good, but there's plenty of good Greatswords in Elden RIng. Iron Greatsword shits out damage, Ordovis Vortex stancebreaks like crazy and hits like a truck, and we just got the Greatsword of Solitude.
Commander Gayuis and the Golden Hippo are such faggots
>>485135085
>>485134967It's unbelievable how much worse that is than the dagger.
>>485135002Just make sure you do Igon. And the dragon waifu I guess.
>opponent pops starlight shardyup its chainsaw time
>>485134349Me on the left
best WA for a halberd? status build btw
>>485134157Do I need to just go fucking kill Messmer? I'm pretty sure that fucks the rest of his questline, though. Considering that Hornsent's over near the elevator either I think something just completely broke.
join the erg group!!!!!!
>>485135085golden hippo became much more bearable once i realized he's a lazy reskin of the watchdogs from dog3 but with slower timings
>>485134682You're a child
>>485135212Speaking of chainsaw. Where do I get the macros for it?
>>485134309Same, the DLC made so much more of the base game lore somewhat comprehensible that it feels incomplete without it. (Why are there these fingers and also random hands? What the fuck was the grafting? Why are there corpse jars? What are Marika’s motivations? Why is Mohg trying to ascend Miquella while serving another god? etc)
What's the lore behind this here Lordvessel?
>>485135137Actually trivialised the hippos. Wish I'd found this before I gave in and Sparked the first one: would have been slightly less cheesy.
I finished my martial arts run. Did I beat the game? I forgot to take a picture with Putrescent Knight
I haven't updated so the Bloodfiend Arm and Rolling sparks still work AS INTENDED you nerf seeking FAGGOTS! And that's how I'm gonna keep it until they buff literally everything in the DLC.
>>485135212what do you mean by chainsaw
>>485135490The Bloodfiend Arm still fucks everything
>>485135389At the very least, it made me like Marika. Kill all Hornsent.
anyone got a serpent flail they'd be willing to drop or trade?
>>485135474good job cutie
>>485131681Romina is not the Outer God of Rot, but rather a Daemon Prince-like uplifted mortal who is credited as creating specifically the SCARLET Rot and its associated bullshit.It stands to reason then that the original power of the Rot proper was something else before she & Malenia got “blessed”.The true God of Rot is identified with scorpions in a couple of lore drops and Rot and Poison are treated as stemming from the same source both mechanically and spiritually in game (keep in mind also that “spider-scorpions” are native the Shadowlands, are eaten by the Hornsent as a delicacy, & one day started growing giant for no reason anyone could find).All this to say; Fly Sickness is almost certainly a prior curse from the OG of Rot before it became obsessed with Girlboss Avatars and infecting everyone with nothing but super-yeast infections.
>>485135474Here's my build.
>Wife finally starts playing Elden Ring>Help her out on my mage character >She laughs when she looks at my toon, says she looks like a magic goblinThe fuck? I thought I did a pretty good job by myself. Is my character ugly?
>>485135212>getting mad over something that can be savescummedYou should only chainsaw ammunition because they're 100% cheating
lmao womanlet
>>485134994>viablelightrolling dragon man>scale with anythingNo.If you use the stone/heart again you gett +20% strongest dragon spells or dragon cult spells depending on which dragon form you're using.that's it.
wtf happened last thread
>>485135589what grace we meeting at?
>>485135654You made a female character.
>>485131580Nah fuck that, Ranni deserves to be slowly and painfully beaten to death for being a smug cunt, a selfish murderer, and a blatant creators pet.
>>485135427Hidetaka Miyazaki here. We ran out of time for that area so we dropped some scud fragments there. Sorry hope you understand.
>>485135196its really depressingscarlet rot frens got shafted this dlcso did int buildssad day
>>485135427it collects scat fragments for messmer's army. that's it.
>>485135707Don't give them attention
>>485135664ammunition can be savescummed what are you talking about
>>485135667what is renalla's cup size?
Why do I have to commit suicide 6 times to hear a voice line
>There is people itt that actually like the abortion that is suckiroIdk how you fags can like that overrated piece of shit rythm Game that gives you 0 incentive to kill normal enemies and has the most boring story fromsoftware has ever made.
want to make a mage knight, which set is the shiniest knightliest armor? i don't really like the carian knight set much.
>>485135734Got my sign down by the first steps. Pass is ergYou want anything in return?
>>485135853Hard to say, but her twin moons mog the fuck out of any tarnished's type b-cups.
>>485135585Agreed, it never really felt like I had a side to take in the base game apart from “kill demigods because their dead mom (forma de stone) said so)”. Now I have righteous cause to flatten hornsent fucking shits with my hammer.
>>485135861you rike? stupid gaijin hahaha. don't forget to buy sekiro 2 miyazaki needs to get his shit together, these quests are abhorrent
>>485135890nah i'm goodsigns down
>>485135881Rhythm games are awesome
>>485135667Can you use Rellana's swords individually, the way you can backhand blades?
>>485135846If someone is spamming golemn arrows they cheated them in even if they savescum them later. Same goes for sleep bolts.
>>485135234>had to warp to the highroad cross sign>then warp away>then warp back as he finally decided to fuck off >then finally talk to ledaWhat's even the best choice here? Do I help Hornsent, then help Ansbach? Or do I just kill this freak out of frustration for his quest being clunky as shit?
>>485133781i was a le hardcore gameplay fag when i played the souls games but dark souls still managed to leave an impression on me with its environments and feel of exploration. ds3 left no impression in that regard, everything is boring. demon souls had pretty cool stuff too. i think elden ring is easily the most engaging world, at least until you run into the end of the very shallow lore. i was pretty into exploring it and trying to piece together what everything was and it all is just very nice to look at.
>>485136045>farming arrows is impossible
>>485135667vgh, fume sword...
>>485135667Rennala's robe is so fucking ugly
>>485136052hornsent is a cunt
>>48513199810/10 it’s pure kino
>>485135667Zullie has time to dehelm every npc, including hornsent, but not rellana?
>>485135994Ah shit lemme get a finger remedy real quick
>>485133881That's a man
>>485136125>vghshazbot
QRD on Guard Counters? Do I have to deflect like Sekiro or do I just hold block then attack after blocking???
>>485136258That doesn't really answer my question, but I kinda agree. Helping him does give you swift slash, though.
>>485136016They are boring as fuck and very repetitive, I never liked any of them.
>>485136387oh i didn't see you said you put your sign down, I can summon you if you want
>>485136289>Short as fuck>Completely fucked over the core mechanics by adding auto aim and a bunch of other shit to appeal to scrubs>Only like 1 good song
>>485134424that's what you get. no mercy for gankers.
god pls don't fucking kafka me tonight after I killed all those fly men dont jinx meknock on woodim begging you>>4851319987/10 fun story reminded me a bit of votoms and eureka seven and dunegameplay was alright.great music, not at all what ac fans wanted tho i think most ppl just wanted ac2 or fa's ost again. cool characterspretty nice mech design
>>485136045I've farmed a full 699 stack of golem arrows before, for one. You cannot just assume anyone using golem arrows is straight up cheating.For two, trina lilies can be dropped in stacks of 1000 and scumming gets exponential very quickly. For the better arrows/bolts specifically, yeah there is a 99 limit to drop, but the full limit is still 699 so that's only 7 scums after you have 1 99 stack when it's extremely easy to get the first 40 legitimately.
>>485136427ok
>>485129924>"Hey babe, would you be a darlin and put those nuisance hornsent to rest".
>>485136097go farm them let me know how long it takes you to get a max stack
>>485136432The latter.Strong attack after blocking a hit.The Sekiro deflect is sort of in the game, but you won't be seeing it any time soon.
>>485136574Put some shoes on, strumpet.
>>485131510the wizard in the top of the tower obviously
>>485130303I wish there was a three fingers touched version of raging wolf armor, it would look really good
>>485136604It's about 5 hours if you have good arcane. I've done it before, faggot.
>>485136604I spent all month farming golem arrows and now have 600
Best weapons to infuse occult? Working with 16 str and 16 dex. Flamberge comes to mind, and that's about all I know.
>>485136574yes mommy, I'll burn them all for you mommy
Now that we know the truth about Mohg and the fingers, can we all agree that Varre was a good guy all along and that his talk of love was 100% genuine?
is fire knight GS worth it for a strength character, infusing it with fire? or does it have to be faith? using flame spear obviously.
>>485134349Me on the right
>>485134243reject coomembrace sovl
>>485135672>dragon spellsYou mean the dragon breaths? Are those even viable? I remember trying the rot one since people used to hype it and never managed to kill anytning with them
>>485136458Thanks Anon! Finally I can do a Boom Hammer run!
Farming is cheating
>chaos build>war spear is mainly dex>fist weapon is mainly str>perfume is mainly dex again>plus you want to pump fthAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>485132149HI
>googling the Rakhasa set for info about it>come across posts complaining about how hard the actual boss isLiterally HOW? I beat that nigger in 2 tries. Would've been 1 if I wasn't testing shit out.
>>485136752I learnt that it's pointless to occult infuse a weapon that doesn't have innate bleed so any weapon with bleed is a good occult infusionflamberge, beast claws, spiked spear
>>485136879>>plus you want to pump fthLol no
>>485132585based and same
What are the "must have" talismans for Greatswords?I feel like Two-Handed Talisman is one since most of the time I'm Two Handing them, but I dunno if there's something else.
>>485136752ripple blade or ripple crescent halberd should scale really good with occult. cba to check.
if i had to pick between licking marika's dried out loose roast beef hag pussy, ranni's scratchy, frayed, sandpaper like ropes, or miquella's little pp, i'd pick miquella's plump, smooth little balls and sensitive, squishy littlle girlcock any day
>>485136450Nope!
>>485137030Don't you? Or with the seal you can get by with the multi stat scaling?
>>485136854The breaths are good if you have a spirit summon to draw aggro. The melee ones (claw, maw) and the roar are fine with or without a spirit summon.
>>485136879Most viable builds are str/dex and whatever flavor aoe you are trying to hit (int/fai/arc). Strength gives you bonk and defense, dex gives you speed. Don’t pump faith just because of the scaling, it’s overrated.
>>485137073they don't infuse, natural occult scaling>>485136752basically just anything with bleed, anything with innate arcane scaling, and venomous fang

>>485137096The incants are bad for frenzy build-up outside of fth/arc builds, go with the torch instead

>>485137076I pick all three.
>>485137052it really just depends on what you plan to do with them. two-handed talis. will probably be better if you don't spam the skill/have low mind
>>485137254yeah as of the dlc the best frenzy build is basically just dex with minimum other stats, using the torch, fist, and vyke spear
>>485137207my gf
Is this a good weapon
>>485136934Because if she gets you in a corner and starts spamming, she will kill you.

The deflecting hard tear is only useful for perfect blocks??
>>485137030high faith is good for the incants and their fire damage.
>>485137323Deciding what talismans I should be using is honestly the hardest part of the game, I never know whats worth it for any builds

so what's stopping me from invading and just laser beaming everyone, exactly?
>>485137115I might give it another shot then. I do like the idea of my guy kust becomin a full blown dragon rather than just simping for them(dragon cult), and I guess I could also mix it with bleed monk gloves for the arcane scaling
>>485137627You're stretched too thin at that point
>>485136879with frenzy, you either build around the weapons or incants if lower level; before there was only vyke's, so pure incant was better.at 150, you can get both.
>>485137683there's a high correlation between autism and transsexuals and videogames
If I were to do a frenzy build, I would probably play around with all of the weapons / incants and figure out the different ranges so I had a viable long, mid, and close range attack. That’s it, I’d only run the 3 chaos attacks that cover those ranges. You really want to have a strategy that baits them into the range of your best attack, but always have the appropriate dps to keep pressure on at different ranges. That’s really all there is to it.

>>485138265oh, and the npc invader who gives you the weapon madding hand (it's decent).
>>485138173Looks fun! I mostly run frost builds but I might have to look into frenzy once I’m done with my current playthrough of the dlc. I don’t want to spec into the build until I’m not really doing pve anymore.
>>485138084the difference in damage won't be that big anyway, i'll keep the 41 fth on the rare occasion that Midra's does something

i dont have the DLC but is Trina in the base game?in some form?
>>485138738no
>>485138738Mentioned in text, why?
okay fourth time killing fagahn and it seems like they fixed the performance somewhat because now only his laser nuke drops my fpsi think the fight is a solid B tier up from my previous assessment of D tier
>>485138682>he doesn't antspur fingerprint when summoned for gayassyou did it to yourself. it's a shitter eat shitter world
>>485138803just wondering since i wanted to find out more about heri thought there was a St. Trina church in the base game but maybe im mandela effecting myself
>>485138643at the end of phase 1 radagon starts tapping into mohgs blood powers before miquella comes in so phase 3 would probably be whats left of mohg's angry spirit taking his body back over and going psycho
>>485138548I know...>>485138684yeah I blocked the summon because he severed outif you sever out because you're out of heals then get resummoned, I'm blockingif I kill the phantom and the host runs all the way back to the grace to resummon, I don't block

>>485138714Glad to know I'm not the only retarded one.

I just can't remember where it was. Even from the seventh floor grace I just straight up can't remember.
why do we people say deflecting hardtear is a new way to play the game when perfect blocks existed before it?? (never used it nor did guards, genuinely curious)

>>485139463What are the lore implications of wormy doots being down here? Normally they are by evergaols. I guess purple means they get to be in the trina level? They have nothing to do with sleep.

>>485139917It’s my favorite place to invade because shitters don’t parry or interact with the game so they don’t know this. I bait them into the fog and watch as they helplessly spam thorns and corpse piler to no avail.
>>485139193And that's a good thing
>>485140053blackguard, the guy introduced stealing from a nice white girl and autistically raging at anybody who talks to him, is black

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>485139624they're also all over the gravesites with all the stone caskets with items in them so its not entirely random that they surround the stone tombs in the fissure too

>>485140053They snuck in a black VA for Malenia, you can clearly tell she's black because she's still unable to get rid of that obnoxious accent they all have.Also "blackguard" is black. The thief who stole from an innocent woman for no reason in a world where currency doesn't matter.

>>485140546How am I coping? Stop using words you don't understand. You have nobody to blame for getting summoned to fights you don't want to do except your dumb ass self.

>showing a host what gesture to use to unlock a secret passagePeak Souls co-op experience.
>>485140658I don't. I ADORE this game and have over 2k hours in it, but it's one of those games that's really fun to play and think about but would be absolute hell to live in. There's no happiness in this world, just pain and suffering. Even if you were the MC, every fight is going to be agony and there's no way dying feels good.

>>485141973There should have at least been some interactivity with Malenia if you do the dlc before her.
the odachi guard counter is so good, it feels like it ducks under attacks 50% of the time, it's a wide sweep, and it's faster than the counters on a lot of smaller weaponsseems made for deflecting tear
Reminder that the END breakpoints for stamina are 15 (twinking), 30, and 34. If you push to 50 END for stamina alone, you're an idiot and wasting stat points.

>>485142414>50 poiseThe breakpoint for poise is 51, not 50, and I do have it on all my builds. How embarrassing for you to be wrong and not meet the breakpoint yourself.
>Nascent Butterfly trap at the Chapel of AnticipationSo was this just a joke by the devs or something?
>>485142249I always start a new character
/erg/ themed coop run when?
>>485142249Just start a new character. Ng+ is kind of boring and invasions die off. I’ve done a frenzy build, lightning, strength. Never done a wizard or dex build before so I might try it
>>485142129>>485142298I bet you can't attack 15 times in a row
>>485142595Shut the fuck up boomer
>>485142481actually it can, 10% of 166 is 16.6. 16.6 + 20 = 36.6. so 166+36.6=202.6 or 203 if you round up.

Okay, I gave in, I can do radahn at 0 scadu fragments but not the unholy cancer that is the 1v5 fight with no summons. They take no damage and one wrong move is death.

All I did was point out you were wrong on the 50 poise breakpoint, which you still are. Keep trying to save face though, it's really funny.
>>485132764>>485132604Am i wrong or is the snake actually two headed, no tail, just heads?There's also the possibility that the snake was not a curse that came with his birth, but sealed within him by Marika as a means of subduing it. Could be another Rhkyard snake god situation.

>>485143336It’s probably better to start a new character. With the 300k players on you might get more invasions. If you don’t do pvp then ng+
If it takes 1 hour for a furnace golem to cremate a hornsent and Messmer has 15 furnace golems working 24 hours a day every day, how long does it take Messmer to cremate 6000000 Hornsent?
>>485143239you shouldn't bother with the hp regen tear, just use bestial vitality instead. it only requires 12 faith and basically does the same thing. use anything else.
I hope Miyazaki brings back tits in the next game.
>>485143183Sounds like you are desperately trying to save face when you could be using a larval tear to get yourself on track.
>>485143580Is there a winter lantern fly bell bearing?
>>485143412It needs 3 materials, two can be bought with bell bearings, the other is a regular drop from DLC enemies.It's ironicaly 100x easier to grind for any of the madness pots than for the madness boluses.
>>485143580And the other materials dummy?

>>485143660Anon it's okay to admit you were wrong about the poise breakpoint. You don't need to embarrass yourself further like this, we all saw the post.
>>485143617The Hornsent were planning on turning everyone in the world into mixed-race jars.Messmer was ordered to save the world. He confined them to their cities, full of everything they would ever need.On the whole maybe 20,000 Hornsent died, mostly due to lack of supplies as the war progressed.Your situation is mathematically impossible with the limitations imposed on Messmer's golems.
i just wish fromsoft would try harder at balancing everything that isn't an r1 and r2. all the ash of wars, spells, status, etc. are all either trash or busted and don't add depth to the game
>>485141729bloodborne 2
>>485143897Okay you two arguing has made me paranoid…is it 50 or 51 (currently rocking 60 poise but I need to know)
>>485143583I've never really bothered with any of the MP features which was fine since I got banned for modding the game and forgot to start offline lmao but I think I'd like to try it out at some point, so I might start a new character and stop leveling at 150 or whatever.
>>485132873 magma+astel is fun for cooming lava all over the place, then you just 2hand astel whenever you want to use its ash to nuke. they look good together as awell
>>485143964Maybe try using weapons that aren't gigantic jump L1/R2 spam poise breaking machines and you'll have more fun and find a use for those things retard.
>>485141713the first gameplay trailer actually was gameplay anon, they stripped it down because consoles.
The hornsent deserve worse
Man the madness hand seems busted if you're not actively prepared to mitigate it. Just got hit by one heavy off of it and it did like 75% of the buildup in one hit
So lorewise do dead Tarnished leave bodies behind?Imagine the stack of clone corpses at certain areas.
>>485144118thats not what i do though? retard
>>485143693>>485143735The one that drops from an easily farmable enemy that also drops silver horns so you don't have to worry about item discord consumables either? Yeah, just kill them for a bit at Midra Manse Hall.
>>485143617The hornsent genocide didn't happen but if it did, they deserved it
>>485143897I never claimed there was a poise breakpoint at 50.
>>485144037It's 51 and 101. Poise works like a health bar, when it hits 0 you stagger. The lions share of PvE shit deal either 50 or 100 poise damage exactly, so you need 51 or 101 to take the hit. 50 poise and less is functionally the same as having 0 poise. Additionally, anything over 51 is wasted unless you can hit 101.
>>485143957The spiral tower of the Hornsent has influenced Erdtree worshippers, who took its design and used it to create a Erdtree symbol. Before it got veiled and became the Shadow Lands, the Hornsent civilization had cultural exchanges with Leyndell.Sorry to tell you this, but Marika was fine with the Hornshitters while she shat out a bunch of cursed bastards.
>>485144057There's a steep learning curve and a lot of bullshit, but it is fun.Don't be one of the shitters that dies to an invader and then runs onto here complaining about pvp being a non-opt in feature in coop.You'll have fun if you trust the process and have decent vigor.

>>485143226Considering Snakes are the devil in this setting I doubt it.
>>485144332Did you read the part where marikas people were tortured and stuffed into jars becoming abominations?That’s why she keeps all the omens in the sewers. She hates them and sent her first born to genocide them
I helped that worm bitch fuck up Messmer and then he invades me.Fuck you and your people
>>485144448Did he have the parasites or was that something that happened when he got the stab?
What talismans should I add to this?
>>485144961>Minority isn't trustworthyMany such cases. His people were genocided for a reason.
After the creation of the 3rd Leyndell Empire under the command of Emperor Marika, the Hornsent began to subvert her people.She planned on exporting them to the Weeping Peninsula but...fate had other plans.
>>485143226>>485144760the two-headed snake is canonically benevolent and a good guy, it keeps the evil snake inside messmer at bay. his military knew about it and it was basically their war mascot.
>>485145068Charged attack talisman
>>485145068I don't get why you people are using that useless FP regen talisman. It's only real value is if you need to go take a shit mid-dungeon or something. It restores FP far too slowly for a permanent slot.
>>485144961The hornsent deserved it, obviously. Nothing shows any redeeming qualities for their civilization. Their most powerful fighter is two naked dudes larping in a blanket.
>>485144168Faram.
>>485145068Shard of Alexander and Turtle are never bad picks.
I think I understand why St. Trina would consider Godhood eternal imprisonment.Every single fucking thing we learn about Marika in the DLC paints her in a very sympathetic light.We seen she loved her grandma, her village, her people, her original home, and Messmer.You see a mother who tried to do everything she could for her son and family, but if you look at the base game she's just a monster.It does seem divinity does peel away at your humanity or simply makes you so bound to the outer will that your autonomy is lost.It's no wonder she eventually broke the ring and never wanted if put back together
>>485145053after he died, you can see things wriggling from every part of his body, before leaving through his eye.I wonder where they came from.
>>485144792Yeah, but she married a Crucible worshipping barbarian, who had freak soldiers that would make the divine spirit warriors of the Hornsent look like normal people.She had to bit her tongue and accept that the Hornsent were respected by the wider Lands Between world. Her little crusade would not have been popular, which is why she hid it along with her abomination of a son, and his army of rapists and murderers.
>tfw going to the haligtree againIt all feels hollow and pointless
>>485145252Their warriors did seem to learn how to have infinite poise so maybe torturing people was worth it.Seriously what the fuck is their poise value?
>Everyone is infected by parasites and the world is controlled by eldritch outer gods>ER was BB2 all along
>>485145346Miquella did everything marika did. She was going to be the exact same
>>485145503Yes/10
>>485145202>>485145267Thanks!>>485145241Almost permanent uptime on low cost ash of wars.
>>485145346A lot of people are seething at Marika for "abandoning" Messmer, but didn't she get crucified by Radagoy/Elden Beast? Kind of hard to attend parent child day when you're strung up on a rune arc.
>>485145503The key to infinite poise is subverting people and turning them into mixed-race jars.
>>485145241FP regen talisman is broken for anybody who doesn't specifically run a magic build. you get infinite AoW, infinite heals, infinite poison and rot removal, etc. with zero stat commitment.
So why does midras mansion have 4 graces all within 10 feet of each other
>>485145507I thought everyone was saying ER was the prequel, with Age of Stars leading to BB, Duskborn ending to DS, etc.
>>485145682That would be waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too kino.
>>485145671Miyazaki is REALLY bad at this game

>>485145565She sent him to do his little genocide before Godfrey got banished, and Radagon got recalled. Renella had to have been allowed to join him by a not brain dead Renalla who was still happy getting dicked by Radagon.
>>485130284Eyes are the window to the soul
>>485145503their warriors were literally flesh puppets for divine spirits, the rite marika abused to become a god was a hornsent ritualistic practice.
Crimson Seed Talisman is better than Crimson Amber or Erdtree Favor
>>485145565I really don't think she had a choice with Messmer.I doubt the greater will would let a person who holds the archenemy of the golden order live in the realm and if Messmer's most loyal troops abandoned him once they learned of his nature would the common folk leave him be?At the same time I understand why Messmer cursed his mom when he died because the tarnished are shorn of light just like him but we are her chosen champion yet he is left to locked away far from her forever

>>485145507>>485145682it goes like this:elden ring (knowledge of and interaction with ayylmao) -> demon's souls (knowledge of ayylmao is lost, only remnants like the talisman of beasts remain) -> bloodborne (knowledge of ayylmao rediscovered)

We know godfrey was first, and radagon took the mantle up sometime later, but were there any other elden pords after that? Or did the system fall apart immediately after radagon?
My new headcanon is officially that Marika WAS the GEQ when she was working with the Hornsent, then when she accrued enough power and killed all the competing Gods/Empyreans she established the GO and became the Eternal. It pretty much squares every circle with the GEQ lore we have when you really map it out.
Bros, I just made it to Shaman Village Knowing is one thing but seeing it.
>>485130284it's the light of grace that coalesced in the eyes.the real question you should be asking is why marika and radagon are the only ones who have vertical slit pupils.
>>485133091I'll miss it when the next From games comes around and we get Moonlight Greatsword again but Blasphemous Blade doesn't come back so FTH is once again left without a good weapon

Anyone else getting fps dips?
oh wow, they patched the mohgwyn tree jump rune farm
>>485146462You are retarded and we also see scars and teethmarks on her body in an old trailer meaning she was whipped and tortured like the rest of her people>>485146464The twist that Hornsent started the practice and hunted Marika's people was a twist.It does seem like that modern pot people are made differently based on Alexander
>>485146650Yes I had to turn off raytracing on a bunch of bosses because the frames were eating my rolls.
>>485146464Kill all hornsent.
>>485146508Marika is/was a snake>>485146184lol calm down dude
>>485146650Yeah, but I'm running on Arch so my commentary is meaningless
>>485146650Yeah for me the game occasionally will dip from 60 to 20ish or even freeze for a second before climbing back up to 60. Not sure why.
>>485146741why?
>>485146864>i use arch btwinsanely based
>>485146776>You are retarded and we also see scars and teethmarks on her body in an old trailer meaning she was whipped and tortured like the rest of her peopleActual non sequitur I'm impressed
>>485146820>marika is a snakeAre we just making up random stuff now?My headcanon is the greater will is a random dude dead in the world and no one found the body.
>>485146232I have 85FP, and my AoW only costs 16 FP. I can use my shit twice per minute at no cost, and if I spam my bar empty it only takes a bit over 2 minutes to refill to max. there's a reason dark souls switched to a charge system, clearly you weren't around then.
>>485146650I've gotten random stutters since a couple of patches before the DLC. Not sure why. Played hundreds of hours before that point with zero issue and now suddenly I'll have these sudden hiccups where I'll skip for a few frames and then it'll return to normal
>>485146462If Marika was the GEQ then what were they "gods" that she and her offspring hunted and skinned? Why do the Godskin Apostles have snake bodies and tails? What transgression forced the Fingers to sic Maliketh on her? Where did she get Destined Death from?And remember, the god's skin that the godslayers wear is not horned.
Any Thiollier fan art? He's my favourite
>>485147014>Are we just making up random stuff now?Since day 1 retards have been making shit like that up and parading it as fact like the "MELINA IS LE GEQ" fags.
My headcanon is that Ranni actually loves me and we'll be happy in the moon...
>>485138341I feel retarded for thinking this would happen. When I saw Miquella on Radahn's shoulder my very first thought was "oh shit this is gonna be a Serosh thing" because it looked so damn similar. I had just beaten the Scadutree Avatar so in my mind there was a precedent for a 3-stage boss, and if Radahn was the final boss then surely he would be a 3-stager. Get Miquella on his back for 2nd stage, rip him off and go berzerker mode in the 3rd stage. No brainer.I avoided all spoilers going in so I didn't have any other points of reference, by the time I finally beat Radahn I had gaslit myself into thinking it was 100% happening and when he simply died I was genuinely disappointed, like "the fuck? that's it?" In retrospect I was the retard for expecting Faggotzaki for ever dirtying his precious femboy fetish characters with overly bloody deaths.
>>485146462GEQ was Queen of the Hornsent. GEQ is whatever the fuck Marika is reaching inside of here. Marika seduced her to get close. The betrayal was Maliketh destroying GEQ.
>Find Great Katana>It has a back scabbard so big it clips right through the fucking groundWhyWhy do they keep doing it
Could From have made it more obvious that Ranni ending was supposed to be the "canon" ending?
>>485145125The winged serpent is the mascot.Also does the wing serpent helm actually effect the boss fight?
>>485147014snakes are capable of asexual reproduction which squarely resolves a major confusion with marika's self-made kids, and there is a discarded snake skin next to the bonny village mother statue.for the record, the GEQ also has a non-circular, vertical-slit rune, and the three together are the only ones who do.
>>485147140What type you like?I guess this is more Ansbach art since hes crying
im starting to believe none of the lore was thought out. theres no way that crucible, hornsent, placidusax, gloam eyed queen, and marika fit on a timeline, especially if we know so much about what happened during hornsent time but somehow nothing about placidusax and gloam eyed queen who should also be from a similar time period
I love the fp regen talisman it lets me use low cost ashes frequently and use beast vitality to keep my hp topped up.I also use the hp regen talisman and icon shield.It might not sound useful but its kept me alive when I would've been killed otherwise since the hp regen sometimes ticks right before the game registers I'm at 0hp.It's basically second chance from kingdom hearts.
>>485129924How the fucking hell do I just SURVIVE phase two of the Radahn fight without a shield? I tried rolling, I tried just running as fast as I could and the gayfuckboi motherfucker teleport after images from across the fucking arena. I have two NPC summons. AND my easy mode Mimic Tear but I can't drop his aggro for a millisecond to cast a spell or scratch my hairy balls
>>485136574This picture made a believer outta me
I have a feeling the Lion puppet and Radahn puppet phase 1 OST are leftover recordings from vanilla and the rest of the goyslop was made by an A.I
>>485147508>im starting to believe none of the lore was thought out.It took you this long to get here?
>>485140289>Using a weaponYou didn't beat the game
>the GEQ also has a non-circular, vertical-slit rune, and the three together are the only ones who do.Then why would the Elden Ring within Marika not have that Rune?
>level 20~ invader>bullgoat>silver tear>blood backhand bladesLol

>>485147532either parry or use a shield; if bosses are allowed to counter other strats or equipment, then bosses are also allowed to counter rolling.
>>485147320so im supposed to believe marika killed the queen of the hornsent and they just don't talk about it? or leave any trace of it or the queen?
>>485147532Stack defensive buffs or go light roll with the iframe boosting talisman
>>485147532You get lucky. I only got my win because I abused % damage shit like rot, poison, blackflame, and the black knife and used the mimic to distract him (which almost never worked). Fight is horse shit, it needs a nerf. I've never had to resort to this level of cheese or even use a spirit ash for any other boss.
>>485146462>>485147116>>485147151>>485147320>>485147367>>485147608What is GEQ

For me, it's
>>485140289You fucked up. He's there to teach you NOT to fight him and to come back once you're MUCH stronger. You can't beat the game now.
>>485147636Whats so special about the silver tear helm? Doesn't it lower your damage?

>>485147896>marika and radagon both have their runes within the elden ring anon. death was specifically excluded as per a very prominent and major plot point that is tied to a mandatory boss and cutscene.That was my point. Marika and Radagon have Runes within the Elden Ring already. GEQ has a separate one.
>>485146741If they ever patch the bird farm I will just use cheat engine for more things than I already do. You need such an absurd amount of runes to upgrade new weapons or buy ammunition or boss armor or whatever. Even with a bow that has enchanted shot and the golden Scarab you are still paying for those runes by spending your time on monotonous repetition.
>>485147818it would have to be that way or placi would have to predate them. but it leaves huge, huge pieces of history totally left out of all the lore. what was the elden ring doing during hornsent supremacy, or how did placi and the hornsent interact? how did the ring go from placi to marika? what happened to the old god? and still where does geq go? and somehow all of these major events and power dynamics just are completely forgotten except for some of the things hornsent did to shaman and some of the things messmer did?

i forget, did the godskin apostles show up at all in the dlc?
Reminder that the ENTIRE central thing of Dark souls, like the cycles of Fire and Dark over and over and over again, literally sisnt exist until Dark Souls 2.People take it for granted now hut like the implication in Dark Souls 1 wad that Age of Dragons -> Age of Fire -> Age of Dark -> ???? and that it was like progressing ages where things continued on.The idea of it being a cycle wasn't introduced until Dark souls 2That all is to say, like, expecting Elden Ring to have some amazing Greater plan that the writers have pieced together like a perfect puzzle just like isn't the greatest idea, because chances are a lot of it is thought up relatively on the fly, most writing is. They don't really probably have most any of these answers, they're open to be written about later>>485147884I dont do well with remembering acronyms>>485147896Oh okay thank you>>485147974Oh okay thank you>>485147961I dont know>>485148025Do you have as nice hair?>>485148171Oh okay thank you>>485148454I dont think that's correct
>>485148474guts sword
>>485148474Fire Knight Greatsword legitimately feels like its completely bugged
>>485148653I don't think they did.
Here's food for thought:It doesn't make sense for the GEQ to have been around before Marika reaches the Gate of Divinity and ascends to godhood, because the GEQ was defeated by Maliketh.How would the fingers have created a being like Maliketh without control over the Crucible? The shadowbound beasts are not products of natural evolution, there's no race of them out somewhere. They're artificial creatures, just like the Erdtree Avatars, the Crucible Knights, or the Godskin Apostles. But without crucible powers it's absurd to think the fingers could create a wolfman supersoldier capable of taking on an empyrean head on and winning--if they were capable of that they would have never needed Marika in the first placeIn other words: we have 3 possibilitiesThe Fingers were already integrated into Hornsent culture and manipulating them before Marika (there is 0 evidence of finger worship whatsoever in the Tower)Marika became the Gloam Eyed Queen after achieving Godhood and went postal for a while until the Fingers managed to orchestrate her downfall and bring her to heel (mirrors Ranni's story)The Fingers backed two different Empyrean candidates to Godhood, and then had the two gods duke it out for supremacy using different sources of divinity--one life and one death.
Is this some new kind of yoga?

>>4851452411 per 2 seconds.Even in a short ass imp dungeon you see substantial returns.Timing my last run I was 17 minutes babysitting somebody through Farum Azula from the godskin checkpoint510 FPAt 20 MND I have 121 FPI carry 4 flasks for FP which totals 484 FPSo over the course of this long ass map + boss I recovered 4 additional flasks worth of FP for absolutely nothing.It's a terrific PvE talisman that can be swapped for bosses and pvp and the gains are already enough by themselves to support weapon buffs forever. It also conveniently allows for more frequent heal from afars. >just grind lulling branchesThose are for boss fights and when I need them.
sorry bros shits fucked you gotta put her down
Wish From at least gave us a hint of when the GEQ showed up. If we knew, then putting a timeline together would be easy.Did she show up before Marika became a god, and it was a battle for godhood? Did she show up after Marika became a god, but before she married Godfrey? Did she show up during Godfrey's campaign or peaceful reign? Her appearance and defeat led to the GO being established, but we can only guess when that actually happened.
>>485148659gwyn linking the flame in order to prolong the age of fire was a DS1 thing thoughI guess you're right that the cycles within the age of fire was established by DS2
>>485148970The worst part is that the second grace is almost directly over the first grace and could have just as easily been a shortcut where you kick down a ladder.But there are 0 meaningful shortcuts in the DLC because people made jokes about "the door does not open from this side" and fromsoft took it personally.
>>485149042A Misbegotten who ended up in a weird pose after it died.
>>485148292I'm not sure you're understanding the point of the issue.standard runes are a coloration within the iris that are a byproduct of the influence of grace. that's why the middle of the major runes is a black circle, because its the pupil.the issue is with marika's rune, because following this established logic she does not have a human pupil, she has an inhuman vertical-slit pupil in the shape of her great rune. the connotation with serpents isn't baseless either, as they deliberately used the similarity to her rune to trick the player into thinking messmer had serpentine eyes. if you extrapolate from this onto radagon who is literally part of her, he also shares this abnormal vertical-slit pupil phenomenon.is she not human? is this a feature of all pureblooded numen? is she serpentine?
>>485149124Mhmm
>>485148830empyreans are gifted their beasts while still prospectives anon, arguably she has had maliketh since she was a baby like ranni did.
>didn't do NG+ so went into DLC in NG>almost 200 hours for base game + DLCHoly shit. Why is this game so big?
>>485149310No you don't understand.The Fingers have to CREATE those beastsBut they don't have the power to on their own. We meet Metyr in person, she's not spawning Baleful Shadows in her bossfights.Before they had a Goddess on their side, the Fingers were locking children in caves to train assassins.Maliketh only exists because the Fingers had access to the power of the Crucible, which either means that they were manipulating the Hornsent and had access to the Crucible all along, or that they created Maliketh after Marika took the powers of the Crucible for herself.The fingers aren't just shitting out godslaying superheroes, or else they wouldn't have needed Marika to become their Goddess in the first place.
>>485149087>Can't be fixedThat's the best part.
>>485143957>The Hornsent are globohomo trying to crucible mix everyoneKek, nice comparison.
>>485149513You can ignore most of it.Also padding.
>>485147719I just used a greatshield and poked him with a fire spear. It wasn't that bad.
>>485145241The main use for it is to refund the FP costs of buffs.The HP regen talisman recovers 120 HP in a minute, and the blue one 30 FP.If you also equip the Old Lord's Talisman, Blessing of the Erdtree lasts 2 minutes and costs 60 FP so it's fully refunded by the time it ends, and that heals 600 hp per minute for the entire group.For hosts it's whatever because you can sit at graces often and enemies themselves drop flasks, but for support Phantoms this is a massive improvement.
>>485149615You know that Beastmen have been around longer than any other species outside of Dragons right? Why would they need to use the Crucible to create something that already exists?
>>485148668they patched it didn't they?Didn't they neft the infusion scaling by like 15% damage wise

>>485145346The golden order was going to shit long before Godwyn was stabbed in the back due to the machinations of a selfish nonce with a savior complex. Even If you ignore all the things she directly or indirectly caused (such as indirectly causing the frenzyflame to tighten it's grip) you still have a person whose made tons of bad decisions with large long lasting disastrous results for everybody involved. All of her machinations and scheming that went into the shattering were all to wipe the slate clean with the ultimate irony being that she's the reason things reached this point. Who knows if she cleans up her act in the endings where you put her back together. Given her track record, I somewhat doubt it
>>485149087I'll finger the schizophrenia out of her

I hope the third guardian spread his ass like butter on toast. Better still I hope Leda and the gang are hard filtering him as we speak.

>>485150381No, it's just a staff that's for people who don't want to carry a staff and talisman to cast both spell types
>>485150489I only invade at enir ilim now jumpscaring people at the lion knights are the most fun invasions I've had since ds3
>>485150416Marika's rune is a vertical line crossed with an upturned semicircle.The rune on the head of the jarred shamans is a vertical line crossed with a downturn semicircle--the Rune of Death--over Radagon's diagonal thatching.I do not know why jarmeat is branded with the Rune of Death.

>>485150480look at the story trailers and you can see she has scars on her limbs and some look like teeth marks.She was tortured with the weird teeth whip like the rest of the shamans.Also if she had a fucking beastman fighter do you really think her entire village would have died?
>>485150489I love Swift Slash. Fuck "slow and methodical" bullshit, we anime now and we fucking like it.
>>485150740???
>>485150480Well let’s look at it realistically: If Marika had Maliketh from birth then the hornsent wouldn’t even be able to step foot in her village to terrorize anyone. She’d just be able to throw herself at them safe in the knowledge that the second they so much as blinked at her wrong Maliketh would slaughter them like pigs. She’d literally be able to act as a meatshield for her people by standing at the entrance and daring anyone to try and enter
>>485150654Yea, both of the staffs you get are split between fai/arc scaling along with int. A total fucking shame that the great beyond staff isn't some giganigga int staff but I guess it makes sense given the finger shit.

>>485148830I thought the popular consensus was Melina is it the gloam eyed queen or has it sealed in her eye like messemer? they both had visions of fire.
>>485151752Do a ctrl+f, retardIt's just another website like here, whats wrong with it?
>>485150416I'm saying there is a resemblance and elements of Marika's Rune with this Shaman symbol. And that is because she is a Shaman. Who I have no reason to believe were snakes. If we really want to speculate I would say the Shaman had this symbol branded onto them by hornsent. Maybe the hornsent really liked snakes (what with the snake skin being nearby to the two NPCs, and that's why there is a resemblance to a serpent's eye. Maybe? Which is why Marika hates snakes so much. But I don't know that just seems to be stretching, and that's before even going the Marika is a Snake route. Like it's not impossible, but it's also not impossible she was a dragon instead of a snake. And I don't believe that speculation either.
>>485151826>they both had visions of fire.The last patch removed reference to Messmers sister in that item. So we don't know what she saw in that eye anymore.
>>485151596There was no real point to using the Talisman of Beasts when magic had all the best stuff.
ok bros this is really weird im like one trying every boss >>485128926like this feels like supreme easy mode, lvl 55 and i'm breezing through nokron, no summonswhat is going on
