How far have you lads made it in Deep of Night? Currently sitting comfy at tier 3. Everybody told me the bird sucked, but god damn is he so fun to play as.
i tried to pick it up again after taking a long break from the gameloaded into a regular run of balancers, not deep of night, not everdarkteammates made it all the way to 3 bars and died twice on three bars after i picked them both up, boss didnt even make it to 30% healthits just fucking annoying how perfectly you have to play to win, especially if you get shafted on the way to the boss and dont get a bunch of good passives and weapons. it would unironically be a 10/10 if the bosses had half the HP and did half the damage, but its held back by being a semi hitless run simulator if you dont want to lose
>>733192830lmao guardian fucking sucks
>>733193409why do you only have webms where the bird is the only person not dead on the floor with 3 bars and the only person even contributing?all these webms show is that you and your butt buddy suck ass and he's better at the game than you
I made it to D5, won one game, then stopped playing and I probably won’t play it much again unless they add new content since I don’t wanna play the NG+7 mode over and over.
>>733193464>>733193409mental illness?
>>733192830My newbie friend group is still struggling with Heolstor, that nuke gets us every timeThinking about just saving Raider's ult to i-frame through it
>>733193548they're not my webms, dumbass nigger, also that birdjeet was at 3 bars when he died
>>733193548>why do you only have webms where the bird is the only person not dead on the floor with 3 bars and the only person even contributing?is this better?
>>733193687>they arent my webmsis that because you havent actually seen a bad guardian player worth recording? or because you are such a lazy faggot to actually play the game. these webms are like, months old at this point>the bird was at 3 bars when he diedeven if that was true, he's still the only one alive while the other players are dead with 3 bars, without context this just looks like he was the least shit player out of the 3 of them
They should’ve made a character who can create spiritsprings
>>733193292I've had plenty of runs where I have really shit beginnings (or just die in the rain on the second right on the way to the portending), but still manage to beat the boss out of sheer stubbornness. You've just gotta get at least one other teammate that doesn't suck total dick.I like playing Guardian because it's significantly easier to carry a team with him. Granted, there's no saving it if both keep going down as soon as I get their asses back up
>>733194361>guardian>carryingLMAOyou're a zdps nigger and everybody hates you, kill yourself
>>733193409>other shitters already dead and 3-barredHe fucked up his save, was 3-barred himself, and let himself get flanked, but he was still better than the other two.
Salvation you say?
Stop playing at D3 when realizing I have to get lucky and get good relic just to not be useless
>>733194507I dunno, man. I get Vyke's War Spear or Siluria's Tree and I can take a decent chunk each hit, especially with guard counters. Besides, his job is to draw aggro while the other two dump the damage.
>>733195017getting to D5 is easy, just pull the eth cable if one of your teammates picks birdjeet
>>733195331>his job is to draw aggro while the other two dump the damage.that never happens because guardian does no damage so he draws no aggro, retard, the bosses will always target the player who is damaging them the most
>>733195410Why does the bird make you so angry?>>733195821I use the wraith-calling bell to nag their asses towards me if they're moving around too much.
>>733192830he is easily the worst character in the game. and you will need to learn everything that can dead angle you. I just don't see the point of having one on the team most of the time.
>>733194361>"carrying">needs teammates who are goodthats not what carrying is. If you want to carry just go duchess so you can end the fight before anyone dies.
>>733192830Guardian is pure ass, both trash and unfun to play, by far worse than playing a shield character in any other Souls game.His meme stance should have never existed.Even the Elden Ring DLC introduced a new way of using shields that is both fun and strong with Thrusting Shields.
>>733196842its the stance of 0 damage
>>733196842why are you here? literally why are you postingi complain post about stuff too but its not the absolute vast majority of my time or posts, you've taken up more than half the thread complaining about a character in a pve coop gameeven if he really is bad, just get better at the game, he literally cant hold you back. i would understand if it was like, pvp or something and it was a zero skill cheese or something but he's literally helping youif you are mad that you arent getting carried, you just suck ass
>>733196505I can solo most of the bosses, but it's a slog when everyone else is down.
>>733197304Guardian's unique mechanics are dogshit made by pajeets with 0 knowledge about the series, which is why I compared it with Thrusting Shields which were created right before Nightreign released.I'll shit on that garbage whenever the topic comes up because it's shit and shouldn't exist.
>>733197378post a webm of you carrying a game while your teammates are 3bars
>>733197378yeah because your shitty character does no damage
>>733197603find a real hobbymaybe like actually playing games, then you might spend less time being mad that the guardian carrying you died once and everyone else was on 3 bars and the run lost after he made a single mistake versus your 40 mistakes
>>733197603>>733197665>>733197687lmao calm down boy
>>733197786>then you might spend less time being mad that the guardian carrying youData about character usage was published and Guardian is by far the least played character in the game, so that isn't really a real issue.I don't know why anyone would defend this, it's shit game design that doesn't even work in the only game it exists, nobody likes it and serves no purpose.I'm still hopeful though, Executor got a massive rework that actually fixed most big issues the class had previously, so maybe Guardian will get one next.
>>733197810you said you can solo carry with guardian, go ahead and catbox that shit, I'll wait
>>733193680Either stand in the sweet spot in the center or stand at a distance and look for how it spreads, then roll away from any lines coming towards you.
>Depth 4 is ballbustingly hard, get oneshot by everything, have to constantly resurrect teammates, people still do evergaols at level 3, zero dps on nightlord>Depth 5 is a comfy lil romp, if you don't have damage negation at full HP someone will get it and drop it for you, teammates only go down around however long it takes you to charge your ult, starter camp -> camp -> night invaders -> castle -> world bosses, nightlord dies in 10 seconds
>>733193680>>733199976i honestly have no idea of how to dodge his nuke, i always parryslop it as executor
>>733196057He's dead weight for faggots who think a mass revive on day 2 makes being zero dps dead weight good.
>>733197304>he's literally helping youI dont want his "help" you stupid nigger. I want literally any other character and for you to do passable DPS because DPS is -the only- thing that matters
>>733200879ok, i understandyou are too bad at the game and want people to carry youyou might be interested in some of the resources people have put up for the gamei hear there are some builds that use some of the non deep of night relics to guarantee some boost to skill damage, as well as make it so that reaper class weapons appear more often, allowing you to commonly get the halo scythehopefully you can find what you need so that you dont struggle as much in the future!
if your teammate picks guardian, he's disrespecting you, he's telling you: "I picked this character because I think you're a 3bar shitter, it doesn't matter that I do zero dps, I'm only here to pick you up because you're going to die over and over again". nobody wants to play with a teammate like that
>>733192830i've been stuck in 3 basically as long as that mode has been out. but occasionally i'll go through a loss streak and get demoted back to 2 and i'll want to kill myself.
>>733201058>man with zero DPS>"You want to be a carried durrr"You are objectively the one being carried when you play the bird you worthless faggot
>>733200317D1 & 2 are kinda base game tier ezD3 and 4 are where it ramps up and you have to carry randosD5 is kind of a crapshoot who your teammates are. But generally just choose melee if you see caster, and choose caster if you see 2 melee's, should get you through most games
>>733192830Depth 3. and then eventually reset when I hit depth 4. Maximum comfy. You triggered the bird schizo. Good job.
>deflate your deep of night erection
>>733204020lol didn't you just get banned from /erg/ you schizo loser
>>733192830Depth 5. The funny part is that Depth 5 is really not that much harder than 4. The real pain in the ass is going from 3 to 4.
>>733200317 Absolutely nailed it. Depth 4 is like dragging a cinderblock through a minefield. Every room has some absolutely cracked-out boss on roids, and if one person faceplants it’s a full team wipe unless you’re playing Guardian or some busted invul route. Then Depth 5 is just… chill? Coordination suddenly exists, people bring builds that do actual damage, and invaders basically just line up to donate their gear. It's like going from hell back into a well-balanced beta test.Also >nightlord dies in 10 seconds based reality check.
Clocked 500h so far and I've been stuck on D4 for the last 200h or so. Just need 2 more wins and I'll get to D5 for the first time, wish me luck lads.
>>733210142 godspeed, anon remember: clear camps fast, don’t aggro extra spawns, and if someone’s running Guardian in Depth 4, triple check they aren’t just a revive bot with no damage D5 is within reach, just don't get greedy with revives during evergaols or you'll get juggled straight back to 3 bars like the rest of us.
>>733210142post main and relics
>>7331928309999, I'm kind of burned out since there's no concrete goal to aim for.
How to fix high depths:>depth 4-5 will have the same health and damage as depth 3>night bosses can be red>night invaders will have a chance to use their ult>new run modifiers like randomized nightfarer, occasional friendly fire (not in day 3), fall damage activated except for spirit springs>multiple run modifiers can be active, depth 5 can have up to 3>make great hollow appear moreBasically making day 1 and 2 harder without just lazily cranking up the damage.
>>733210142>>733210332Got a D5 game and the quality in teammates is a night and day difference compared to D4. Pretty much this: >>733200317So close...
>>733212763yeah that would be so much better honestly
>>733192830D4 and I took a break by playing through Elden ring again cause it’s been a while since my last playthrough and was curious how it would feel after playing nightreign. Idk if I want to go back to nightreign cause d3 is pretty chill but d4 is just a no hit run simulator and if you don’t find the less damage on full hp perk you just get one tapped for a mistake which is incredibly frustrating and not fun.
>>733212763>randomized nightfareri've been training my whole life for this specific made up scenario because i don't have a main and just rotate or straight up roll a dice on who i use in runs a lot of times.
>>733212763>night bosses can be redThat's much worse than D4/D5 scaling btw.
>>733205584>+300How do you pull this off? Both teammates disconnecting?
>>733217087That's what happens when you have no map icons/mystery nightlord.
>>733192830d5 9999 literally only chinks exist over hereit's honestly getting stale
>>733218198join us erg passno chinks only jeets spics and troons
>>733192830Depth 3 and 2 back and forth… kinda getting bored I play every now and then
Nightreign is really good but the available content has been played to death and I've been at the depths cap since forever.
>>733204157Thats not Augur
>>733217087No minimap + unknown nightlord, lol.
>>733221491Yeah, my friends and I played a lot to get to Depth 5, when we did we played some more but haven't touched it in weeks now.
>>733200807now imagine actually being this retardad
I've reached relic limit yet again and have to spend 2h going through and selling this garbage. I actively sell bad relics after every run but mid relics that might be usefull in extremely niche situations and builds clog up fast
>>733230627Fuck off back to your containment zone tranny. >>/erg/
