If you don't like playing as a character you don't sympathise with, that is up to you. What I am bothered by is people using gay terms for fucking everything like an absolute faggot. No, Lies of P doesn't have a "twink" protagonist, it's an actual teenager. It's Pinocchio, retard. Get out of here with this "le femboy! le twink!" garbage. This shit is just disgusting. Is this how you would describe your own fucking family members? Your cousins? Brother? Fuck off.

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.

Tell me what is wrong about what I said? You all sound like trannies here. I don't use terms like twink, shota, femboy or any of that other degenerate nonsense. I have brothers, cousins and plan to have kids of my own soon. These types of terms disgust me. It's crazy to me how this type of shit has become so normalized with the internet. You're all just a bunch of coomers, or what? Do you think the average person 20 years ago was talking like that about other people? It's fucked up and you know it. You can at least be self-conscious enough to admit it.

1. The Nox weren't obliterated by Marika's Order. They were sent underground long before that. The Carians are some of their most successful descendants.
2. They beat the shit out of the Ancient Dragons that were way past their prime, and a cult formed out of it. Farum Azula predates Leyndel, and Marika likely directly or indirectly had something to do with Placidusax's displacement.
3. Rennala probably didn't agree with the primeval current even before Radagon, given her nature. The moon is closer to home, and she could be compared to an acting mother to her students and faculty, keeping them from looking too far ahead into space, missing the moon for the stars. Radagon had likely gifted her the amber egg / rune of rebirth to make up for the loss of their primeval methods of longevity.
4. Going by the words of Sellen, Azur and Lusat were removed from the academy in their current states, more like dangerous artifacts than wizards proper, keeping students and faculty safe from them. Merely interacting with them is enough to reach the current, and it is likely that this is how Sellen became so obsessed with it. Azur was her first teacher...
5. Going by the words of Iji, Sellen may in-fact be a distantly related Carian, since she is affected by the stars as Ranni is, and afforded "immortality" from it. It could also be because of the primal glinstone within her.
6. It may or may not be obvious that Radagon was an agent weakening them from the inside, but it is also apparent that he was in some sort of conflict with himself, and genuinely wanted to learn sorceries to "complete" himself. Even if he wasn't trying to weaken them from the inside, you would still come to the conclusion, due to how it all ended. Whether it was Rennala or Radagon, or both, who banned the pursuit of the primeval current, is as irrelevant as it is ambiguous. It is also ambiguous whether it is even worth pursuing, but it is still clear it went against Radagon's culture, either way.

I'm pretty sure they were too weakened or tired to clean up the aftermath. How do you move that thing? You'd think they'd be mining it for materials. The ancient dragons prooobably wouldn't have appreciated one of their own greats being used as a statue, either...

So the elden ring as a whole used to be a smoothly running batch of codes until someone took one line out of the code, in this case the rune of death, which caused things to get fucked up. Like the very concept of death has been deleted. And not only death but the two parts of a proper death with both the body and soul passing on. The very notion of only the soul dying or the body dying brings forth so many unexpected glitches. Like death blight is a result of something that was not supposed to happen. Deathblight came into existence because there was a void that needed to be filled since there was no proper physical death happening. It makes me wonder what other things could happen if other runes were stolen or broken in two like the rune of death was. Like if Godricks rune was broken in two what unspeakable horror could take its place in an attempt of substituting what was broken or erased.

This aversion to even using easily understood descriptors is just straight up denial, or some weird moral high ground.

It's like reading Lolita by Nabokov and saying well, you shouldn't call the lolita a loli, because that's like super offensive, call her a pre-teenager.
It's like watching Death in Venice and claiming the androgynous actor was miscast for the role, he needed to look more masculine and some boys that age are already looking like grown men.
It's like looking at Miquella and saying maybe the name and the feminine appearance and the soft voice are all coincidental. Don't call him one of these icky Japanese words.

I really like the fire knight armor, but I realized the "skirt" comes from the legs and not the armor itself, which means you're restricted to stuff like Hoslow's greaves or else your crotch is exposed.
Consort's mask looks kinda cool IMO, even better if the character's eyes are an intense colour, but it looks "contained" within the armour, works mostly well with girls and also is a bit too colourful for the armor itself.
Twinned helm kinda cool too? Not my type though

Vagabond has 7 arcane and 9 faith which means you can barely cast rotten breath to cheese bosses without a ton of talisman swapping. It is not optimal at all, it's dogshit. At launch vagabonds had a hard time using rivers of blood because they didn't have the arcane so they couldn't beat Melania.
>>
>>484991707
nope this isn't like other souls where the level 1 base class deprived winds up slightly better when you level it up
wretch is the worst class for pretty much every imaginable build, you're wasting stats somewhere

base class gives a slight bonus to whatever build you're doing, and you can figure out the optimal one by adding up stats you'll use (vigor + mind + endurance + {dex vs int vs fai vs arc}) and subtract the base level. And one class will be optimal for each build, and its never even close to the wretch

ex say you want a pure strength build. You don't need any dex, int, fai, arc. Hero has +44 base stats, while wretch has +39. Say you want a pure faith caster. Prophet has +41, wretch has +39. Dex build? Samurai is +42

Morgott is super easy though as long as you don't panic roll. Killed him earlier on my SL1 guy with minimal effort and I didn't even remember any of his moves. He telegraphs everything so hard that as long as you don't panic roll you're not going to get hit.
Radahn isn't particularly difficult either, the only thing that clips me now and then still is the pillars in phase 2 if he is on slightly lower ground and me on higher ground since his weapons hitting the hill cause them to spawn in unusual positions where I'd usually be safe.

You can get it within 5 minutes of starting the DLC by doing some trickery and I don't think you really even brick any quests other than moore / florissax

Simply;
>run to get moore site of grace
>run to gatefront, turn right and go to the forking paths, downhill and to the left and under a landbridge to reach the poison swamps
>towards the elders hovel, activate the spirit spring and jump up into back of fort of reprimand
>run back down through moorth ruins -> highroad cross for grace
>run up to shadow keep to break miquella's rune
>teleport back to moore and tell him to stay sad and kill himself like an hero
>teleport to highroad cross, run up to church of the crusade and pick up his gear

That's the fastest route.
You lose out on his worthless cookbooks and the option to get florissax ashes but what do you care they all suck

I think I've figures out the problem I have with not only the DLC, but the base game: I can't read the bosses at all.
Their combos are long and flashy, and I'm more focused on surviving them than learning them.
Plus, they chunk you hard. Then I'm just trying to get a chug in before the next one starts, so I don't catch the windups.
On Messmer now, and despite five or six attempts, I could not tell you how any of his combos begin or end.

A big difference with morgott is how detached from gravity and logic his telegraphs are. At least radahns telegraphs are consistent. Morgott simply hangs in the air like he froze time for spastic intervals before crashing back down at lightning speed with no warning, so either you've memorized all the completely arbitrary amounts of delay in each of his attacks or you're going to get caught by his delayed hits
that's whats bullshit

His elite dragon warriors are probably former barbarian warriors from his father's horde army, since they use axes that no proper knight would ever use.
He might have followed suit since he probably grew up when the GO army was filled with guys like Tragoth.

>>484993107
as I said, you still get some scaling out of other stats. Once you hit a certain cap on the int scaling, putting points into the "worse" scalings will yield better results
This ofcourse is for HIGH levels of builds. I don't know the breakpoints, but get to atleast 50 int before you start fucking around with dex in terms of damage scaling. Also it depends on the weapon obviously.
>>
>>484993028

If you told him to git gud he will disappear until the final boss fight and its impossible to get his gear until just before radahn, good job you bricked it
If you tell him to fuck off and die he does just that

The only trigger necessary for getting moore to kill himself and give up his gear is to break miquellas rune, no bossfights or progress beyond that. Don't need to fight his invasion or kill the bugs or anything

Why does Ranni fight us in the form of Rennala in the second phase but was helpful to us at the start? I dont understand her she is just like my ex.

Transformation is permanent but the buff only goes for a minute, like the other anons said. But that's fine doing Rock Heart cause you mostly hit you dragon breaths at the top of the fight, do rot, then ghost, & then punch with bleed. Dragon maw or do some other spell whenever you feel like it. Palm blast is also great in pvp cause people rush you & then get absolutely tossed on their ass letting you do a bite or spell, or double kick Charged L2.

My talismans are stone kicker, blue dancer, rotten wing, & dragon greatshield for more protection

I just got done with messmer, couldn't read his bullshit at all. Ended up just equipping the heaviest armor I had with winged tear and all the defense talismans and just went in focused on just watching his moves and learning to dodge or parry them instead of trying to kill him. Eventually had him figured out enough to where I could go back to my regular setup and down him.
He's got some wonky timings but you'll get him downloaded eventually, he has quite a few combo finishers that easily allow you to get a fully charged R2 on him or to drink.

It’s funny; you’d think St. Trina, being Mickey’s female alter ego and explicitly the embodiment of his capacity for love and sentimentality, would be all about the homolust and brainwashing people into kumbaya he ends up trying, but no she would rather murder-suicide than let him inflict his faggotry on what’s left of the world.
I guess being the goddess of sleep (and in cut content drunkenness) makes her such a lazy cunt she’d rather die than be expected to run the world. That or she only believes in hetero breeding sex.

It’s horseshit that the Star-Lined Sword is classed as a katana and not a LGS.
In fact, all the new weapon categories in the DLC needed at least 2 more weapons than they ended up having to make their inclusion actually sensible except the Perfume Bottles (Throwing Weapons are technically another exception, but only because I think it should have been scrapped as a tab entirely and the knives put in the Dagger category since every other Smith Script weapon is just “regular spear/axe/whatever with a gimmick R2”)

Shotafags in denial spent 2.5 years coping and seething that “Nooo, Miyazaki and GRRM are master story-tellers!

I'm really liking the fistipunch weapons, is there a talisman that boosts martial arts in the dlc? I figure I should just get the winged sword insignia for the successive attack buffs but was hoping there was a new talisman for it.
Also I'm sure it's a retarded question but the two handed talisman doesn't give you the buff when you're using the dual martial arts does it?

there isn't enough in game to truly know but we can speculate that it was probably a real "physical" thing and did create life, since the rot, accursed blood, erdtree, unknown shit in space, etc. also create life and establish a precedent for this sort of thing.
>>
>>484998097
not really, you need 3 attacks to bleed with some of them
you really have to use specific large weapons to proc bleed fast because they have special bonuses
lizard greatsword procs bleed fast because it applies twice per hit with the R2
bloodfiend arm procs bleed even faster since it has extra blood splash on r2 and also boosted buildup

The Crucible was the source of nature & life. It was themed around natural evolutionary chimeristy & horns. Marika hates that shit because of her background so she usurps it's power of life & focuses it on Erdtrees & golden healing light. In her vision, her & her works are Eternal under the erdtree

This place was such a wasted opportunity. It was so fucking cool entering that place for the first time. The aesthetic, the background music, the whole area was so damn cool. Then you realize it's basically just an open area where instead you can't use your mount and have to spend an hour exploring it if you don't look up a guide to find all the items in an area that's basically entirely dead and barren with only some basic easy as fuck mobs you parry to death.

It could have been so much better. A huge legacy dungeon with stealth sections and constant interconnectivity. No parrying the Immortal Madness cunts, instead turning off their abilities through some kind of secret for each area encouraging exploration. More enemies in general. Then connect it to the mansion as the final section (which by the way, is incredibly small, what retard thought that like three room mansion should be a whole dungeon? Fuck me I cleared that whole place in like 2 minutes)

Exactly right Anon, the limitations of the in-engine character creator are well-known and are thus to be disregarded when cinematics and commercial art make it obvious that the art directors had a more grandiose vision in mind.
This is official teaser art for Leda. From spent money to hire an artist and dedicated a slot of their pre-release hype-building plans just to showcase that Leda is MEANT to be seen as an elegant-faced Lancer Artoria Expy.

You missed the point entirely. The point of Lucatiel's character arc is that she's ultimately coming to terms with her inevitable demise, and what she fears the most is that "she" will disappear from the World forever. However by helping her, and thus befriending her, she gets to live on through you and never truly disappear from the World outright.

More that she absolutely hates "savagery" she marries Godfrey because he was king of the barbarians & he was the most powerful dude around that wasn't her mimic tear Radagon. But as we see she moves further & further away from the barbarian/primal roots of humanity as she builds her perfect little golden world. She castrated Godfrey by making him bind Serosh to curb his bloodlust, then she disowns her hornblessed children. Godfrey keeps them around as best he can though, he loved his boys even though Marika hated them. She adopts a kill/disown all hornblessed/omen children policy. She starts to remove every primitive thing in Leyndell & the Lands Between & in the end kicks Godfrey to the curb & tasks him with conquering the world far away from her.

>"Your entire religion, cosmology, everything you held sacred, the supposed Grand Design, is built upon the whims of powerful yet petty and ancient beings who happened to take a liking to a regular human aeons ago and that human became what you foolishly came to know as God"
Narrative?
The revelations from this DLC pull the cosmology of the Golden Order and Marika farther back and above and make the former look like farts in the cosmic wind. As opposed to the end-all-be-all it was presented as at the very beginning of the game. I found that humbling and flooring.
How did you feel about that realization?

The seeded curse only happens if he does whatever he does to defile your corpse, and considering the fact that getting eaten by Rykard would also be a similar "game over forever and ever" ad you join the serpent, presumably like you have a special ability for your corpse to nope the fuck out of situations that would cause you to die forever, possibly something like the grace instantly reviving you elsewhere before it has a chance to, or maybe Torrent does something to save you

I wouldn't mind a game were religion and god are genuinely mystical, mysterious, nigh omnipresent and distant. And I am atheist desu.
Last game I played which did this right was Dragon Age 1. Even when doing the quest to retrieve the supposed ashes of the prophet, you never come even close to touching the Divine Origin or Truth. I like that, when in fantasy games you can read about myths of the origin of the world but it's an ethereal and distant thing, which you're not even sure if it's allegory or literal. And you're just a puny mortal who'll never engage with such forces anyways.

Just makes him not die to Leda
Seeing Hornsent side with you makes her end up deciding that the hornsent is fine actually and she misjudged.
Later om though, he'll invade and attack you and you kill him instead, because presumably he decided to continue his war against Marika, but it means he dies trying to fight for his ideals and after getting revenge rather than dying before knowing Messemer is dead

just use the strongest fucking bullshit in invasions. idk why people always need to make it a "challenge" or do a "cosplay" like, just fucking nuke 'em. they deserve it. you know they do. in all seriousness as an invader: why limit yourself ever? AND FOR FUCK SAKE STAY AWAY FROM OPEN WORLD INVASIONS! or find out the hard way with 2-3 guys standing in a big open field with no enemies in a 100 mile radius. you need at least some sort of distraction to create the chaos you need to be able to even have a chance of winning. maybe if they had FF, sure, but they don't. they can spam everything all at once and you can't dodge it all.

Me too, like
The more I thought about the dlc, I really love the like themes the dlc could've leaned down if it put just a tiny bit more effort into it. Like, making it about the ideals that they're siding eith . Like, I like the stuff that like has people side against you for helping them, like Moore. It's a neat idea of like, empowering someone to be able to make their own choices (which is the opposite of what miquella is doing) can lead to that person siding against you, but it's their right to try and prove themselves.
It gives me vibes of like the evil ending from that one boy game about the supermutants, where the best friend who is just a regular human sides against you even when he's outmatched and says "I gotta try." And the protagonist says "...I know."
But thw lack of dialogue makes like a lot of that feel like just headcanon

I would sacrifies some of those empty areas if it meant having some of the cast could reference event that we did up to that point.

Honestly people who say this just didn't play bloodborne. You were wading through fucking soup with framerate plunging to slideshow territory when you get a screenful of beast fur, terrible input lag making dodge timing a fucking mess, and a much weaker evasion tool that had fewer iframes and both unprotected startup and a 50% increased damage window in its recovery. If you fucked up a dodge you got blown up, and the weaker iframes meant the 20-hit flailing combos of most bosses or the meaty lingering hitboxes would catch you easily if you tried to play the dark souls dodge game.

Bloodborne had that monhun-esque dynamic where your iframes were shit but bosses had largely terrible tracking. You avoided attacks by being where the hitbox wouldn't hit, by jumping into blindspots, getting behind the target or just plain running out of reach. What made its combat feel good is that your dodge was a mobility tool used to finely reposition during combat and you were rewarded for good positioning with massive attack windows where you could dump your whole stamina bar into a boss' side while it flails in the wrong direction.

Positioning, and the dynamics involved, are a core problem with ER bosses. Everything turns on a dime, cartwheels in place and spins 270 degrees to track you. There are virtually no blindspots and your position relative to the boss basically never matters. Out of range? It slides forward. Behind it? It spins in place to face you. Moving laterally at high speeds as it swings? It will track you to the ends of the earth. Evasion ceased to be evasion and became a 1 dimensional attention tax, that occasionally challenges you with strict timing or a bruteforce reflex check but otherwise is just a blithe rhythm game sequence.

>which is the opposite of what miquella is doing) can lead to that person siding against you, but it's their right to try and prove themselves.
Its also interesting how Miquella is contrasted against Messmer, a character that many different people from different backgrounds and factions are noted to follow out of respect, despite what he's done. Meanwhile people are compelled to follow Miquella because of what he could potentially do.

Those are handled server-side and thus unaffected. Similarly your played hours will carry over.

I think it's literally supposed to be micro-cosm? Like as in it's literally saying it's like a mini-cosmos, I think the idea is you're summoning a mini-space and trying to gleam meaning from it, so it's a pun/play on mini-space and like how the spell is a microcosm of what the Golden Order is, trying to gleam meaning from a flash of alien sky from the past

if you played Bloodborne you'd know what peak From combat looks like, the boss attacks, you dodge and punish, repeat, if you fail your timing you get hit, no broken delayed attacks where the boss will basically stop mid attack just to trick you into rolling and then continue the attack to catch you, everything happens really fast and genuinely feels like a dance
in Elden Ring you have extremely fast bosses and a sluggish character dealing chip damage every 20 seconds or so if you really want to make sure you're not going to get hit by a lightning fast counter attack

in Bloodborne you feel like an actual hunter, dodge fast, counter attack fast
in Elden Ring you feel like a headless chicken running around and praying for those AoEs not to get you while waiting for the perfect moment to attack and then proceed to run around again, it has the worst boss fights in the entire series and it's surprisingly a dumbing down of Dark Souls 3, which itself is a dumbing down of Bloodborne, no wonder it became a staple among normies

DS goes for high fantasy Renaissance vibes, while Elden Ring is more celtic iron age with chainmail & furs. My biggest issue is that I wish I could rip the wigs & plumes off of 90% of the helmets. I end up wearing headbands or the hermit glintstone head 90% of the time

man 150 is noticeably slower than 125
what the fuck

are people really that concerned about meta level ?

>Seriously Japan, what the actual fuck is up with your obsession with this concept, it has no organic connection with your native spiritual practices and isn't exactly a openly popular position among your Western financial overlords.

You're kidding right? The east such as China have their own alchemists. The very first emperor of China was eating mercury balls because his alchemists said that it can great immortality benefits.

I honestly never had this happen at all while playing elden ring. The game let's you posie break bosses very easily if they're big enough on top of rhe amount of options you get for every type of playstyle. The only time a boss fits your description is Consort Radahn 2nd phase but if you've ever seen challenge runners do him you'd notice there's a good amount of openings he has to hit into and he has a decent stagger threshold. Hell the game rewards you for playing hyper aggressive since it means a lot of damage and finding openings which theres always a good amount and thats not counting getting good tonuse the deflect tear. Also if you're actually good enough he can be parried which means he won't be able to do any of his bullshit consort buffed attacks.

>Even with all the bullshit in the DLC, I still win like 70% of my invasions.

that's fine, then. i'm talking about the people complaining about losing a lot in invasions while doing that sort of shit. if you have fun though that's all that really matters ultimately. peeve for example is well known for playing meme builds and dying a lot, but genuinely enjoying dying a lot. depends on the person.

The Orient had alchemy, yes. What they didn't have was any foothold open to proto-judeochristian esoteric cults that basically amount to "Dude, what if the God of Abraham was... le evil and deceiving us?"
I was baffled by the popularity of this conceit among a historically animist people until that other Anon reminded by of the global stranglehold enjoyed by Freemasonry, and now my hatred has been refined even more.

Christianity has been a part of Japan since Portugal landed there during the Sengoku period of the late 16th century. That is when occult knowledge would have made its way into Japan. I don't know if it lingered from then, but to present your criticism as if Japan had no Abrahamic influence until modern times is ignorant.

Cringe. Buddhism is apart of Japan. Christianity is just some foreign desert religion that attempted to worm its way in.

Correct. It is a minor part of Japanese culture and has been for over 400 years.

1. And for 350 of those years it was viciously repressed.
2. Renaissance-era Jesuits were not secretly teaching crypto-Gnosticism, and that's the only brand of Christianity Nippoin would have had to go off of until modern times.

I'm not making such claim, I am merely pointing out that Japan got western knowledge and teachings because of trade at the end of the 16th century. Are you even paying attention to what I'm actually saying?
