Lightning strike had ~180 flat added lightning - the damage effectiveness MORE than makes up for that at 237% given how high the rolls on a weapon can go. Overall its a change that basically had to happen, as trying to balance all the varied melee skills while some had huge flat added while...

The system of monoliths isn't a problem at its core, but the objectives and quests for the blessings sure as fuck are. Recycling the dogshit campaign objectives that mostly amount to 'run across all of creation 5 times back and forth' does not make the endgame super compelling. There's also...

I really want to the enjoy this game but the performance is so fucking bad I'm not sure I can do it. This game somehow runs far, far worse than PoE, while not having even 1/10th the density of mobs/particles/bullshit on screen. My current necromancer is actually just DOA because I'm not...

They nerfed all the faction skips for truespirit, as in you can't just spam/repeat the same steps for more faction. It also resets your faction entirely upon completing the epic.

Who trades in this game anyway? The SSF bonuses are so strong and add a lot of much needed longevity to the endgame

The krono trade issues fucking *baffle* me. How is this not resulting in people rioting and burning the discord server to ground? That you cant just use the normal ass trade window and roll the dice on if you get to keep the krono that got handed to you? That's like a base system flaw in the...

Probably also implies a hatred nerf, as adding ~30% more phys damage for hatred to scale seems unwise. Almost every teaser has had a dead totem just sitting in the background so I'm pretty sure the melee buff totems are going away in exchange for this

I'm glad someone appreciates my dreamcoat made of 500 giant black cocks

Can you still farm endings with a single save file? I never bothered to get all the various ending achievements and figured I'd do it now cause I'm basically at elden beast again

Yea but he's unbeatable on style points. Just straight elbow dropping uppity tarnished

Whoa they let you summon Nepheli to fight her dad at the very end now, that's kinda sweet

Fashion souls has finally gone too far

Went back to finish up the rest of the base game on my save after completing the DLC - haligtree, farum azula, capitol of ash etc. Pretty fucking hilarious how easy mode all of this is after having to deal with the nonsense in the DLC. Placudisax was a fucking nightmare last time I played...

This was my immediate thought on completing it as well. I did basically the entire thing as a ~70str 2h build and never got to mess with the insane myriad of dex/bleed weapons I picked up, but the idea of slogging through the entire base game + DLC fragment hunt again is like...naw I'm good. I...

I dunno, trying to deal with the camera during 2nd phase Mesmers giant flailing snake teleports was about as peak GarbageSouls as I've ever encountered. Yea Radahn was some nonsense, but maybe my ~80str brick build made it feel less stupid cause I could actually facetank a fair bit of it and let...

Finished the last of it up today. Miles worse than the base game. It's like they decided that the Elden Beast was the pinnacle of boss design and used that as their basis for every non-humanoid fight, and even some of the humanoid ones. Gaius, 2nd phase Mesmer, gold hippo, etc. Just the actual...

Abyssal woods is the worst thing Fromsoft has ever designed, fite me 50 times larger than it needs to be, almost entirely empty space, nonsense quicktime event enemies. Just actually awful

They ran it again today in west freeport Keep an eye on your discords, they'll likely do it again I've got 4 bags now lol

Yea I mean yesterday it took a solid 60 seconds to get a group invite to work, if ever. Tells took ages, parcels going to the wrong people, zoning was a lottery every time etc. Server is obviously dying under the load so them having to cull the max a bit doesn't surprise me.

Again, show me the parse. Yea it's a bug and is gonna be fixed, but it didn't/doesn't matter. It gets monks to be pretty close to competitive with wizards but that's about it.

Yea it was pretty wild how many sets of gear people were able to sell a krono per item. The whole thing takes actually 0 effort, the idea that anyone was paying any amount of money for the stuff is just absurd

Watch Tiche, theres a new summon hotness in town:

Oh god the lore is starting to hit

Some of the bosses may be shit but goddamn if still doesn't make you stop and just gape at every new area you uncover

Alright I'm just gonna say it: The boss mechanics in the DLC are often lazy, uninspired, and bordering on just being plain bad. The humanoid bosses have all been sweet, but stuff like the lion/putrid knight/hippo etc? Fucking awful. It's all the worst aspects of problem bosses in souls just...

Show me the parse I've seen the monk 'tech' and so far have been unimpressed. It certainly makes them far more competitive with wizards, but almost every Kunark fight is still wizard central if they have half a brain.

This is 30$ in the current Steam sale I've heard it's a lot different from the Souls games, but it sure looks like Samurai Souls to me?

okay now im actually mad cause whatever fancy thing he dropped is locked up in the air

Hmmm thats a lot of appraisals for a common joke message, seems odd Ah yes, dung indeed fuck this game sometimes

I must be 50 attempts in to this tree avatar and it's never once been even close. It's such the perfect combination of having to chase the boss across all of creation to get a single swing in + multiple phases meaning buffs are all fucked constantly + horrific camera problems

While I'm bitching about stuff, whoever designed these guys: Deserves to be fucking flogged. Literally immune to any kind of hitstun or stagger, not like 'has really high poise', just actually immune. You will oneshot them or fully stance break them for a crit before you'll ever make them...

The idea of oneshotting the dancing lion is so outlandish to me it makes me assume people are lying lol. That boss is the worst experience I've ever had in any Souls game. He's like all the worst aspects of the tree spirits amped up to 11 - all his movements look identical in that its the same...

What's your bros general progression route been? I did the lion beast and Rennela so far, but now I'm kind of at a loss as to what to do next. I don't know how to get in to Shadow Keep and have just been out exploring elsewhere, but everyone claims the keep is not endgame and more like midgame...

I got it from one the knights that was wielding it yea. I don't think it was the mounted ones?

I rejiggered my stats a bit and went to 50STR/40FTH and so far am just bonking the entire game now with this thing: What a fuckin perfect ass weapon. Huge fucking base damage/scaling, can still enchant it, stagger is off the charts, and can swap the ash to whatever you prefer. I sunbro'd...

Yea and he definitely should have fuckin known better lol? Part of being successful is knowing how to not think with your fuckin dick like a 15 year old and risk pissing away your fame/fortune/success cause some fucking skank DMs you.

You write this as if that somehow excuses it or makes it okay Sorry but part of being a (adult) man is knowing how not to be a fuckin degenerate, especially with fucking *kids* jfc

How are you bros building FTH + STR/DEX chars? I think I went way too heavily in to actual FTH at 45 and should respec again to do like 60 STR + 25 FTH or similar just to meet spell requirements since the only things I ever actually cast are buffs and the occasional rock sling. I'm mostly just a...

The big holy great mace the knights can drop is like the heavens themselves parted and descended directly from God himself for us str/faith bros. No stupid ash gimmick attached to it, huge mega str scaling, baked in holy damage + can still blade of order it. I was chunking the death dragons...
