Then don't wait until Draconic Tree Sentinel and just grab it as soon as you hit Altus Plateau.
>Put the +12 Vendor in Caelid
The most I've ever fought Radahn with is +8, he's completely doable at +6. That said, the game does have a legitimate issue with Smithing Stone 3 being ridiculously scarce compared to other Smithing Stones for some reason, so you're forced to farm them rather than just finding a bunch naturally.

I dunno, I would see that as a fault depending on the context surrounding you killing yourself
Say you're rock climbing tied together and you both slip. You're on the end and need to cut yourself off so the other person can live. They're happy to be alive, but morn the loss. That sounds noble and good on your part
Say the other person takes advantage of you, or just knows you'll do whatever they ask. Eventually they get annoyed, bored, or over your unwavering fidelity, obedience, or willingness to put up with them. Flippantly telling you to kill yourself, they walk off, leaving you to marinate on the idea. When they return to see you've done it they feel relief and are happy to be rid of you. That sounds depressing and avoidable on your part
I dunno the whole context surrounding you and why you'd value killing yourself to make someone else happy, but those are the two extreme examples I can think of. Seems off that someone would be willing to kill themselves (in a literal sense in that they physically die and not in a metaphorical "killing of one's Ego" and changing who they are) to make someone else happy

I think it would be romantic, but not having to it doesn't have to be in a romantic person.
Plus there is a bit of a good happy feeling knowing that they COULD have me kill myself if they wanted me to, so the fact that they don't have me do it means that the positive things that I bring outweigh the positive feelings they could get from having me do that, it means I'm doing good.
>>
>>496575761
If you say so, Juliet. Feels like the question "Would you be happier if I killed myself?" puts a lot of pressure on the other person(s) you ask that of. Unless you're in the military where you're expected to put other's lives before yours, you just kinda sounds like a person with blind devotion. How long does the positivity of your life last till the negativity outweighs it? If and when that happens, what will happen? Seems like you could put that devotion to killing yourself if someone asked you to into better submissive tendencies
>>
>>496577321
It's not like I do constant check ins to be like "Do you want me to kill myself today?"
Its more of a self evident thing, it's like if you're listening to the radio, and you're on one channel. It doesn't have to constantly check in and ask if you're okay with listening to it, the fact rhat you haven't changed the channel to the other one is evidence enough. If it does its job and I do mine, then the outweighing won't ever happen. What do you mean by that last part? You can't really redirect the idea
>>
>>496573438
Why? If they want you to kill yourself, they don't care about you as much as you care about them. Maybe they should kill themselves instead. Or maybe nobody has to kill themselves in the first place.

Also that's fine? First of all, you can still care about someone and think that you/they'd be better off if they killed themselves, second of.all, so? Why would it matter if I cared more about them than they cared about me? That doesn't change my caring about them, and either way food can taste good, food doesn't have to taste you back for it to be valuable

I guess that "self evident thing" doesn't really tend to be a perspective for myself. The notion that someone would be happier if I were to kill myself has never been a thought to cross my mind. So hearing someone else talk about it like it's a thing that they think about feels off. Like, that person's thoughts could be redirected to not that. There's an understanding that the thought does occur all the time, but it still sounds weird that the thought occurs at all. With the sense that psychically killing oneself is the literal last resort in my mind.
One can "kill oneself" by changing their behaviors and becoming a new version of themselves. One can "kill oneself" in another person's life by literally never interacting with them in another meaningful way. They disappear, and are essentially dead to each other. Killing oneself because someone asked, and having that mean physical death sounds avoidable and not an option to bring happiness to the world
>>
>>496578945
>There's an understanding that the thought *doesn't* occur all the time
>>
>>496578490
Food doesn't ask you to kill yourself because it would make it happy. If someone you care about is asking you to kill yourself because it would make them happy, you should reevaluate why you care so much about that kind of person that would ask that of you. Why should their happiness depend on your life? Also, why how could they know you would be better off? They don't know what comes after death any more than the rest of us.

Someone thinking they know what's best for another person can actually be the worst thing for them, ironically.
>>
>>496578945
That only really applies if you think that suicide is an inherently bad thing. In thise case, its essentially more of a cutting losses. I bring positive feelings, and then once it's recognized to not do that any more, then I'm not bringing them anyway, so then the stop is given. I like how I am now, plus it's unfair to expect them to micromanage my life to then make me into what they want because most people don't know WHAT they want, just hoe they feel about what they're given
>>496580246
There's a concept like about tea kettles and breaking them
1 tea kettle is very useful, because now you can make tea. An extra one, having two, is kinda good, because now maybe one can be dirty and yoy take the other one and make tea. Once you have three, that's kind of getting redundant. At a certain point, they'll be disposable. At a certain point it would be MORE valuable to start breaking them and getting rid of them, their value goes negative. There's 8 billion people, and you'll never meet all of them. Depending on social circle, it could be a moral and human value net positive of I killed myself, esspecially to make someone happy
>>
>>496581346
Yes, in this context I'm assuming that suicide is not the answer because, how you're describing the thoughts, literally just walking out of each other's lives is the answer. I'm not the anon you used the teapot analogy with, but you don't have to destroy the teapots. You could put some in storage as extra if/when one breaks. You could sell some, and let other people enjoy tea. Breaking them simply because "oh I have too many and will never use them" is extreme. Relating teapots to suicide and a connection with someone where that person wants you to kill yourself: I think it's reasonable to agree that letting that connection end, leaving that social circle, and/or getting out of that situation would be better than suicide
>>
>>496582527
This. Someone that asks a person that cares about them to commit suicide because it would make them happy should go work on being happy in ways that don't involve asking someone else to kill themselves - and you should create distance between you and them as well (if you can.)
>>
>>496582527
>>496583143
Everyone else already has their teapots though, and be honest, do YOU really see if someone wants to fix up broken microwaves and kettles or if they want it? I don't think it's that weird to cast off things like that, like Miquella and St. Trina
I love my best friend and would do anything for him, suicide included if he really wanted, I don't think that's weird, and I'm okay with that being only one way
You can say hypothetically I could end up finding a new person to know, and sure, but I now as is wouldn't want that or do that

>>496582527
You're talking like I'm suicidal, I'm not
>>
>>496583667
People aren't objects with set functions that determine whether or not they're "broken." What allows a loved one to determine whether or not you should kill yourself?
>>
>>496584631
Because I said so? Like, if you're saying I should be the one to have say over what happens to my body/being alive, why COULDNT I tell someone they could decode that instead, if I own the right to that?
>>
>>496583667
You're assuming everyone has a teapot (a connection) which not everyone does or needs. Yes, there are people who fix microwaves and kettles (therapists and people who work in hospitals), but not everyone may utilize and/or need that service (therapy and/or hospitalization). However, microwave and kettle repairs (therapy and doctors) are available for those who need those services.
That's nice that you have a best friend. That's wonderful that you'd do anything for him. Killing yourself because he asked you to is extreme and I would argue that you ending your life would heavily depend on the context.
That's cool that you don't want or need a new best friend, enjoy and cherish that experience. But understand that friendships come and go, and depending on your situation you'll be able to find a new one
>>496583753
All people are different. Some may feel similar, but everyone has a unique feel. A common quote is "people come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime" it's up to you to determine what your best friend is
>>496583892
>I would literally kill myself if my friend told me to and it would bring them happiness
>You're talking like I'm suicidal, I'm not
I'm sure you're not, but please understand that your romanticized language of your ride-or-die feelings for your friend are abnormal. And, here's something to think about, may be one-sided if your friend wouldn't do the same for you

I mean, yes, to a certain extent. We have many stories where friends would die for each other. So the feelings exists. At the same time, unless they're in a situation where they literally have to look out for each other's lives, and not just, like, really good friends, then it's kinda weird
Don't suicide because friends say it'd make them happier. Suicide because you suffer from end-of-life conditions, like dementia, that'll only deteriorate your brain. Robbing you of your sanity, your family members of who you used to be, and put so much stress on the hospital staff tasked with keeping you alive
>>
SHATTERED

or something
>>
>>496585074
Because you should have agency over your life and your opinion of it. If someone you care about saying that it would make them happy to see you commit suicide because they think you're a broken teapot in a world saturated with teapots, they don't value human life (yours or anyone elses,) so it would be a waste to trade a life (yours,) for whatever value and subsequent happiness they place on your death. And if you're willing to do it, you either see yourself as a broken object and don't value your own human life, or you don't have the agency to keep someone you care about from convincing you to see yourself that way.

No, since you could relieve that burden in other ways depending on the context. If you're a physical burden, learn to lift yourself up. If you're and emotional burden, try therapy so you're not trauma dumping on friends. If you're a burden to hang out with just stop hanging out with each other. Literally the only context would be a life or death situation where your life would be a burden on others.
E.g you're both hanging off a cliff and you're too heavy to pull up; you've been bitten by a zombie and you know you're going to turn so you hold the door to let your best friend escape out the back; you jump on the grenade to save your friend cause you're in a war zone.
Context heavily matters when we're talking about taking lives

>>496586656
Why let other people decide what's best for you? Again, you're treating human life as an object with set functions. A teapot has one function, and if it breaks it can't serve that function anymore. Human life isn't like that. A person's potential can't be measured objectively, so how can someone else determine whether or not you're better off dead? And why would you let them make that determination for you?

Have you ever heard the phrase '"suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem"? Well, all happiness is temporary. Are you really willing to permanently destroy all the potential your life has just so someone else can have temporary happiness?
>>
>>496594858
>A teapot has one function, and if it breaks it can't serve that function anymore.
A broken teapot has many more functions than a teapot. For instance, you can now use it to prop up furniture, or you could turn it into an art piece, or you could pretend they're shurikens.

Basically, Everything is better broken, LET CHAOS TAKE THE WORLD

This is due to their shift in design philosophy from environmental challenges to making boss fight the bulk of the ''experience''.

>>496636465
It really depends, most people have multiple characters at differing levels for certain purposes. If you're strictly invading for example, you usually have a few charcaters between 30/80/110/125/150 depending on your flavor of meta to deal with and how you plan to play against it. If you're just looking for coop? Then you have to consider the areas you want to be most available for and stick to that level. For me? On Console? I've found 115 to be solid, hits so many spots, stays out of the shitters meta bracket, picks up co-op summons usually everywhere up till Enir-ilm but usually just means longer wait time.
Console isn't "dead" persay, but given the type of audiences each platform pulls in, it's probably running on fumes as opposed to PC which may have a larger base since they don't really have many other options in terms of games or content.

My personal thought is 150 is a meme level forced on by tryhards. Alot of people argue you can't make a complete build at 125 but I find that to be untrue at least in the hands of a skilled player or properly minmaxed player, alot of builds finish strong around 125 anything higher than that and you're just looking to be able to shoot off elden stars constantly while having 130 poise and wield duel moghs spears. I've always known 125 to be the top and I've been comfortable at that bracket ever since.

I know Dark Souls 3 royally fucks you raw with a barbed, metal horse cock if you so much as think as not equipping something in an armour slot, but what about Elden Ring?

Gladiator, hence the very fitting Freya legs with the most fitting piece for hands that I could think of, I.E Ansbach's hand pieces.
I am not too sure on weaponry yet, maybe smithscript spear with an equally, beaten, gone-through-war-looking shield.

>>496641746
>I think that'd fit
The shoulder piece is too big and sticks out too much with its color when compared to the black and gold of the other pieces.
The only black and gold pieces are too heavily armoured, don't match shape-wise and thematically or too oddly modeled to look natural.
>>
>>496638694
The main argument was that bad players (the people you want to invade) don't ever stop leveling so a good or familiar with souls games player can beat someone like maliketh at 80 for example but maybe a scrub has to level to 130 so that guy is out of your invasion bracket, this methodology continues until the bad players beat the game but the good players chasing them for invasions are now stuck at that level and so there they sit invading and dueling others at the same level thus making others believe that's the level everyone is at, but that's not true.

Spirit ashes and coop summons is how the game's meant to be played
>>
>>496658143
summons compound any damage you deal to the boss and cause bosses to have pretty meaningful diminishing returns for their own damage to you.

i.e. a mediocre player can deal 3-4x more damage and take 1/2 as much damage by summoning even a medium strength spirit ash, let alone an extremely powerful one like mimic tear or tiche

That's doable, but the problem is the same as many other attacks in the game: it doesn't look that different from him just moving around in some other way until it's too late to react.
I can dodge Blood-Starved Beast's instakill grab but for some reason a lot of Elden Ring's attacks feel impossible to read properly. Divine Beast Dancing Lion has this bad (and that's not even mentioning the times the lock-on camera puts itself in the floor or halfway through the beast's model).

Have you ever had someone you care about actually request you kill yourself purely for their enjoyment? Like, drop a gun on the ground for you? Cause I really doubt you'd still feel the same way about them if they did, and then you wouldn't have that reason to do it for that person anymore, anyway

You should really value your own lives more if youre willing to die needlessly. Especially since you can't come up with an example of a situation where someone you're willing to do that for would be saying they want you to. Besides, why do they need to give any more reason than saying it would make them happy, if you trust them and their value of your life so much?

If you can't think of a good reason for why someone you care about would say they it would make them happy if you killed yourself, maybe it's because there isn't one.
>>
>>496680325
Those are both me I just replied twice
Its not needless, you said a scenario where I was asked to. Their enjoyment/happiness is a reason, aim happy that I'm a positive enough influence that they think that I'm better alive than dead, if that flipped and they thought I was better dead than alive, that's a good reason

Is it me or is it stupidly hard to leave the Cerulean coast without fast travel, for no reason?

None of the coffins that allow you to reach Cerulean from Charo can be used to climb back to Charo
The cliffside tombstones near the furnace golem also can't be climned up.
This only leaves going uphill through the Ellac river up to the Ellac cave (and then take its exit)... Except going uphill is stupidly hard in some locations,picrel shows some rocks that require ridiculously accurate positioning to jump on with Torrent, it's technically feasible, I've done it, but really I don't understand how such a larger part of the map, which isn't even a dungeon, is almost one way.

These posts always make me laugh now that I saw how invasions work on seamless.
Everything is completely optional and both activity and the invasion quality is at least 10 times better than vanilla despite not sharing the same playerbase unlike Wex Dust.

From just made the multiplayer complete ass and made little to no attempt to fix it(the game didn't even have near/far invasions at first).
>>
>>496686360
Almost as if invasions aren't the main focus of the game, how odd that little effort is put on them!

It's not just invasions, the entire multiplayer is complete ass.
I'd argue that coop is even worse, at least invasions you just go in, kill everyone and go out.
A coop phantom just wanders aimlessly alongside the host in the open world 80% of the time, and unlike previous games you need to activate like 500 stone statues just so you can be summoned at all, while invaders just need to activate graces(which is still a pain in the ass btw).

In Seamless you don't need to do any of that, and also can use the horse while in the open world and enter inside dungeons, so it's way less sluggish and clunky.
Keep in mind that this is just a mod made by a single dude that never crashes or causes any major issue during gameplay.
>>
>>496560161
How do you min/max in Elden Ring?
>>
>>496686360
seamless is only good because it's a mod, and therefore insulated from the playerbase at large
>>
>>496689725
Semenless is good because it improves the base mechanics of the game and unclogs the multiplayer.
If it were to be applied to the main game then it would have 100x more activity than before with the same number of players.
The lack of TT and open world torrent alone already fix the two biggest issues with the multiplayer for invaders(afk hosts in inaccessible areas and gankers sitting on a few small locations out of the entire gigantic game world that can be exploited to give them a massive advantage), and for coopers it makes it so the open world isn't a slog and stops them from getting cucked by invisible barriers at dungeon entrances.

trying radahn melee for the first time, I've learnt all his moves and how to dodge them, but how are you supposed to tell which move he's going to do if the cameras so zoomed in you can't see what his swords are doing???
>>
>>496722267
I think there's just a problem with your brain if you're legitimately having trouble telling what he's doing. The camera isn't an excuse, either.
>>
>>496722674
nah what's getting me is he'll do a right hand swing, which can be followed up with either the left slash->cross slash, left slash->spin slash or double sword left slash and it's the double sword one that catches me out because if you roll fast - which you need to do for the other 2 or you wont make it - then you get cleaved
normally I would look at the sword to see if he's doing it but since I roll to the left on the first slash and the right arm goes out of view with him being so tall I just have to hope he doesn't do it
everything else I have downloaded

Worst part is that the regulation files have parameters specifically controlling the camera for every single enemy, with things like fov, distance, Y axis position, and they basically didnt use them for anyone except Rykard.

You know I think Fromsoft themselves like created the problem of people panic rolling directly away instead of smart directs to avoid attacks by likr giving every boss and player move SO so so so much tracking. Because you can't be more secure in knowing you dodged it, b3cause it might sometimes stoll magnet8ze to you. So it's a more reliable bet to just make sure you get out of the range instead of trying to think about it

A classic. Sweet move set and looks great.

Looks cool. Shit moveset but can be fun in an faith+arc build with minimum arc.
>Star lined sword
This feels really underrated. Pair it with moonveil and you’ve got yourself a full anime set up and because of the steep dex requirements you can lean into max casting speed and it pays off.

I'm so confused by this all around
How is it an arc build witb minimum arc? Minimum arc for like what? The flamberge has 0 arc requirement
>>
>>496783250
Star Lined Sword is literally just an Ash of War stick, and it's not even that good. Might as well just stick to Moonveil so you can get all the damage out in one quick attack rather than having to sit through a giant anime combo and get interrupted by anything bigger than a Messmer Soldier.

>>
>>496783250
If you occult a flamberge at minimum arc you're really gimping yourself it's basically useless, in fact, I'd argue faith/arc unless at 150 is pretty much a crap build all around compared to the many other derivations of arc

Why does everyone say Bayle is a legitimate dragon when every sign points to him being a wyrm that was once hornsent/human?

>strangely fleshy for a dragon who is supposed to be made of stone
>uses magma which are wyrm spells
>name has no -sax at the end
>item descriptions heavily imply that consuming bayle's heart will consume the user
>horned as fuck
>attacked placidusax (so he can eat his dragon heart)

>>496788119
>I remember that name well. The broken drake warrior. Driven by bottomless hunger and fiery ambition. Precisely what the Dragonlord envisaged for men who partake in Dragon Communion. The mad hunger and fierceness of spirit that only flows from those young and short of sight. He rather reminds me of Bayle, in fact. Such thoughts are unfathomable to ones as old as we.
you make a good point but this dialogue implies that bayle hasn't undergone communion, and is just a regular ol' dragon

>uses magma which are wyrm spells
because drakes (and presumably wyrms) are descended from bayle

They literally become grandmasters at 12 or 13 years old, there is no amount of practice that can overcome that level of innate talent. I'm talking about 6-7 year old kids being better than 99% of chess players. I'm not saying the top chess players don't practice at all, but if I dedicated the rest of my life to playing, practicing and studying chess, I could not possibly become as good as Magnus Carlsen was when he was like 16 years old

No. I’m making flameberge flame art.
At 150 I have 70 faith and 27 arc. The arc is so I can use the blood flame spells for aesthetic. Flamberge works here because it has innate bleed (not a big build up but it’s still there) and can be infused into fire keeping to the theme of fire and blood.
I’ve tried so many iterations of this idea and I think this works out best. You get all the best fire spells and at 70 your damage and spell scaling is fine enough.

Minimum faith to cast blood flame shit. Flamberge will be flame art. Max faith to fit the build. It’s an rp build and it works just well enough for pvp and coop.
>70 faith. All the fire spells you want. Flame art shit on weapons you like, bonus points for innate bleed to keep to the theme of fire and blood

If you weren't fat you wouldn't feel personally slighted by us calling you fatty.
>>
>>496836380
I didn't say anyrhing about my sex, someone said I was fat and I said I'm not
>>496836383
Do you don't get at all slighted when people say incorrect things about you or insult you?

>Do you don't get at all slighted when people say incorrect things about you or insult you?
People on the internet? Why would I, they know nothing about me other than the words I type.
>>
>>496836549
I'm not
>>496836572
And thw words I type is that I'm not fat, so
>>
>>496836591
fatty
>>
>>496836639
I'm not
>>
>>496836591
But when every time someone calls you fat, you respond that you're not, it's pretty clear that you feel personally slighted and self-conscious and guilty.
Quod erat demonstrandum, you are a fatty.
>>
>>496836709
No I just don't like someone I'm staying I'm fat when I'm not, I say that I'm not retarded when someone calls me retarded and say I'm not autistic when someone calls me autistic
You're purple

That's not how it works, you don't get tested for fatness
>>

Why did your mum have you tested for autism, were you that much of a burden on her? Must have been your headfat cooking your brain.

>>
>>496837293
No, idk ehy she just did. She used to also tell me that if I didn't say hi to nurses if I made eye contact in a hospital that they would put beetles in the coffee, which put me off drinking it. Or she also told me that premarital sex would give the kid and me down syndrome. I'm not fat

I never minded side dungeons having rewards that don't fit my build, the real issue was always that the dungeons themselves are short easy and uninspired and poorly integrated into the rest of the game.

>Remove L2den Ring
that is, make ashes of war have an actual FP cost and not being faster and cheaper than any spell while also doing more damage with half the stats

>Remove crouch cancel and handy tech / soft swap recovery frame skip
At this point in time everyone doing pvp does it, everyone knows it's a braindead easy "tech" and 90% of pvp is just braindead crouch r1 l1 slop. Hardswaps are fine though, if there's a single thing that's not braindead in this game it's hardswaps and melee-spellcasting gameplay and even then hardswaps are not even hard, once again, almost everyone does it nowadays.

>6man limit online multiplayer
Let 2 people invade 3 coopers, and have a 4th coop s lot bc 4man coop is fun.

There, Elden Slop of the Sheckel Tree is saved and enjoyable again. Fromdogshit won't do this though, these would be good changes and they don't like to do those
>>
>uppercase after meme arrow
Too new to be worth listening to.
>>
>>496874672
erm no chuddie, it's general knowledge that 99% changes Fromsoftware does are decided UNIRONICALLY by Jeenine and OnlySpic private "feedback videos"

If this isn't proof that Fromsoftware is absolutely clueless and incompetent at PvP then what else besides this game being dead 2 months after the DLC. Also proof that they might do pvp on their next dogshit souls and leave the pvp balance to a chink that hates the game and a 30+ yo argentinian femboy spic

Hey anons maybe some of you could lend me a hand and give me advice about a build.

I got kinda tired of using STR so I wanted to try int and fth and did a respec to 50 int and 50 fth, I am aware this is far from optimal with anything but maybe the sword of night and flame, but I still wanted to ask, are there any other weapons or talismans/staffs working well for int/fth? I'm happy being able to properly use int and fth weapons even if its sub optimal, but I want to know if there is something else I can use for this kind of stats but i am missing.

I assume it's part of the Shaman flesh being able to "meld harmoniously" with other things and based on the same principle as Godrick being able to stick random body parts on himself and control them like they were his own.
