    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    At 50% the Crucible knight gains some weird wings and gets 2 or 3 new moves, first one he always does on the change is the fly away and then fly at you to spear you, pretty big opening if you get the dodge timing down. (It's not bad but does come faster than you initially expect). He was the...

    Yeah, I'm definitely over-leveled. Was able to kill the Godskin Duo fairly quickly, probably 10-15 attempts, though I did get pretty lucky with the fat ine leaving me alone a few times. Parrying certainly helped but the timing is very odd with the different attacks. Guess now I get to see...

    I hope not, but idk, I killed the invader in the snowfield and used the portal there to Mohgs palace area, guess I'll find out soon if I screwed myself out of an area.

    Got to Mohg over the weekend (Lord of Blood version), and after Malenia plus being overleveled, it really didn't take as long as I expected. Don't get me wrong, phase 2 was a pain but manageable, doesn't hurt that I had him down to like 60% from wailing on him when he did his chant ritual...

    Seriously? I'll have to try that on my next playthrough, at close range I always dodged forward for the first one, maybe that was my problem!!

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I fucking did it!!!! Probably took around 6 hours of my life but I did it. Not naked, but no bloodhound step and medium roll weight, you'll see I took long towards the end of P1 to try and make it so she didnt do the flurry for a bit, didn't really work though. Some sloppiness but I am so...

    How in the fuck does he dodge at close range like that? Is there some talisman that makes your rolls have better i frames? I dont think I've ever avoided 100% damage in close proximity, in fact 90% of the time if I survive I have a sliver of health, dude has skills!

    Also, drinking after work I can see my reaction speed getting slowly worse after a few beers, also makes me more mad. I can dodge that shit pretty consistently in P1 but P2 seems different for some reaspn not sure if it's just nerves or it really is. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Hahahahahahaa, I deserve that, didntdo it yet but I'm getting close, phase 2 blows and I have never gotten lucky with her flurry RNG. It always happens when I miss a parry or do a charged attack, no time to run away. (Not sure if Bloodhound Step would even help but Im out of ideas)

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Honestly Im right there with you, though I haven't beaten her yet, I have P1 down to a science and can generally dodge all or 80% of her flurry, but for some reason P2 flurry generally happens faster and I can't maintain the same distance in time. Plus, those stupid ghost summons suck to...

    I know it's a retarded mindset but I'll get her, just have to find time to grind it out, Work has been kicking my ass and I haven't really had a chance to try.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    My weapon is only +20 but I dont have any stones to upgrade further, I've gotten more aggressive overall but I swear some attempts she does 2 of them in less than 30 seconds, so it definitely is partly RNG fucking me. I'm jump attack punishing her when possible and even staggering her that way...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Spent another half hour banging my head in her stupid phase 2......realized that you can only freeze pot two times before her resistance goes up too high to interrupt. I had a flawless phase 1 but used 2 pots for it, got her below half and I reacted in time, watched in horror as she ate that...

    It's more of a personal goal, I have no problem with summons or spells or anything, just enjoy the challenge.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Trust me I know, I'm still learning but also get terrified after her first flurry bc she sometimes does it like 15 seconds after the first one. If I dont start throwing the ice right when she rises up i get owned before interrupting her. Definitely didn't post to brag, but I will kill that...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Here you go, this is right around the furthest I've gotten at this point. I think if I learn the timing on her spinning slash I could consistently get further but for whatever reason that attack is impossible for me. (You'll see me roll dodge it a good amount of times) This fight I was using...

    I've been practicing naked anyway, and I do have that sword, so maybe I'll go thatnroyte when I try tomorrow. Really wanted to get to phase 2 the way I'm doing it but might make all the difference

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Nah I am using a +10 gold halberd, when she hits 70% or whatever Im prepared for it and can usually survive. But after that she does it whenever she wants so I panic and play less aggresive. Ive never had a fight with more than 3 flurries, which was when I had her to 25%. If I had a...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    At this point after probably 3+ hours I got her to 25% of phase 1, I've also dodged the first flurry 3 or 4 times without getting hit, along with a handful of times where I got one or two small hits. My problem is that after she does it once, you never know exactly when she is gonna donit again...

    Hoping they announce a remaster and sequel to Bloodborne this year, in addition to some sort of ER DLC.

    I was trying not to cheese that part but if I dont start improving I probably will, I did see that posted a little while back. She dies one way or another!!

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Okay, after about 45 minutes straight I've gotten the cunt to about 40% of phase one, 9 total parries (3 critical attacks). My problem is I can't for the life of me time the dodges on that stupid ultra bullshit she does. Actually dodged 2 of the 3 attacks once but got owned by her last attack...

    Damn man, that whole Consecrated Snowfield -> Haligtree area is insanely difficult for a melee only build. Made it all the way to the boss but went back to grab missed stuff and re-realized how much of a pain it is. Definitely helping my parry ability but aside from that, fuck that place...

    Okay so I finally made it to Missus M, didnt have any time to practice, but this weekend its fucking on!!! I don't plan tobparry exclusively but it would be nice to learn a few of the attacks and get them on lock, like I had to do with the CleanRot Knights in the areas before her. Here's to 2+...

    Definitely, although Haligtree I fought through about 50% of each grace site and then beelined for the next site. I found a few ancient somber stones which is really what I wanted. Just have to get past the rot section to find M and then Ill go back through and comb for the missed items /...

    I almost wish there was a way to re fight bosses without having to NG + it or start over. Would be cool to practice and perfect each boss, I'm sure it's possible via PC somehow but not on PS5 :(

    Finally got a chance to play, took down the fog dragon and then went back to Haligtree and made it to Loretta. Jesus she is cheesy, took me like 8-10 tries but some of those phase 2 quad magics didnt seem dodgeable. Maybe I just suck at timing but like I could dodge 5 out of 6, but the 6th...

    Im actually considering a level 1 naked playthrough but I need to get better at parrying first otherwise I doubt I could even take Margit on, gonna try to use that tactic with Malenia if I can ever make it to her. (I couldn't help watch that level 1 ong bak guys video, he made it look so easy!

    I agree with most of those comments, and the crazy thing is I still think it's an 11/10 game in SPITE of the obvious flaws. I don't know when the last time a game had me thinking about it when I was working; it's just that good, and honestly, I wish I had more time to play so I wasn't so far...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Wonder how long a wait it'll be for DLC? At the rate I get to play I probably still have another month or so left of my first playthrough, then I'll probably start from scratch again and follow guides for a 2nd playthrough where I try to find everything, so that's another 2-3 months. Maybe by...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Agreed although I only dipped my feet and maybe got 1 or 2 grace sites before I dipped. If I continue with the Fire Giant and beyond will I still be able to go back before I finish the game?

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Is the timing that much easier with the buckler parry? I've been parrying with the bronze shield and seem to be about as consistent with that as I have been the few times I've tried the buckler, I actually think the Captain Niall fight I won was just using the bronze shield for the 100%...
