Should I buy and use dampeners or does that mean I didn't beat the game?
>Does playing the game as it is intended mean I didn't beat the game
>>729267568if you're on hard dampeners are basically required to beat the game. so don't feel bad about using them at all.
>>729267568Its balanced around it like >>729268587 said unfortunately
>>729267804If this was anything by From Software, that would be correct and you would be a crutch-using faggot noob.
Dampeners are necessary because you'll just get nuked otherwise, especially early game where nulls are rare. I mean I guess you could guard but that's rather restrictive.
>>729267568You shouldn't need to ever buy Dampeners, even on Hard. You get more than enough from finding them through your companion. Then again, they're super cheap, so do whatever you want.
>>729267568Who care what you do in your gameplay. Just enjoy the game.
>>729267568Don't be stupid, dampners are literally around you playing the game normally. You can use three at a time which is just what you need
>>729267568I hate how Vengeance gutted Impaler's Animus. There was no need for that, it's a late game skill so it's fine that it eclipses charge/concentrate.
>>729269175On the flip side Impaler's Glory went from being a gimmick to top 5 magatsuhi skills of all.
>>729268710>Dampeners are necessaryThat's stupid. Why do they keep making these games so bad since SJ.
>>729267568>consulting /v/ for how to play the gameYou didn't beat it.
Its been a while since release but I remember the meta being member switching ad nauseum for buff stacking is that cancer still the strongest build
>>729269265Wasn't it still good in vanilla? It's just that the ailment magatsuhi skill was just so overwhelmingly busted.
This mentality of "Using the tools the games gives you to win is bad" shit is pathetic.
>>729269537>the metaYou are such a faggot
bros how do I beat demi fiend before going ng+
>>729270294Just craft a one-shot build
>>729270360how?
Why is he standing like that?
>>729267568If you beat it, you beat it. Though it just means you beat a beginner game. You're going to want to play a good difficulty/balance mod and you won't need to worry about this.

>>729269537yesomagatoki strategize shouldn't exist in the same game demons have ENTER effects
>>729272076heeho bitch boy
>>729267568dampeners are fine, buying the magatama DLC means you didn't beat the game
>>729272248Macca grind us cancer in this game and practically BEGS you to throw money at the dlc even with attract pipes, tracking mitama spawns and doing full map laps for material. Don't defend that bullshit.
>>729267568I wouldn't say you didn't beat the game but I played on Hard and I didn't need them once, not even early game. I can't imagine you need them in NG+.
>>729267568You don't have to use dampeners if you don't want to. Just block.
>>729268587>>729268645Wtf no it's really not. Just have a demon that absorbs or nulls in your party. Use the fusion system as intended.
>>729272487What are you even buying? I never use macca except to heal which obviously results in a surplus
>>729268587Nigger just block when the enemy turns red and stuff. Nigga block.
>>729272858an absolute fuck ton of compendium reverse fusion
>>729267568tl;dr do as you like.The whole "didn't beat the game" philosophy is braindead to begin with considering anything the devs provide as part of the game is obviously intended even if not "honorable" or whatever.The only thing that should be cemented is if you cheese your way through a game you can't claim to "understand" it enough to praise or criticize its design.Unless the design itself is broken, at which point finding a broken means to succeed is perfect understanding, even if unintended.
