Chose Vordt's ring over the big OP frostbite weapon. The ring is also pretty OP, firing off heals regularly when I spam quick strikes. Gear layout, which I think I'm gonna stick with for a long time: Irithyll Straight Sword, Grass Crest Shield / Knight's Shield (can't decide), Life Ring...

There's also Outstanding at 55: This would be the top gear at level 60. There's back, mask, neck, charm. VT-level gear that'd basically obsolete everything else for 4 slots until PoP. No way this gets in. Sure be fun if it did though!

I'd rather get a stiff knee to the groin from Ronda Rousey. ...in general. If she's available.

RI usually plays on servers with very little actual competition and still goes balls-deep with their sweatiness. I'm kind of impressed. It'll be interesting to see how they do against major competition.

If I had any real krono to bet I would take you up on that because I don't see how it's workable. If it is, then it sounds like everybody needs to hit this at level 55 if that's the req level for the gear. As in "drop everything and go do this at 55". Gonna be fun trying to do the Lavastorm...

Well, "finding a decent weapon" isn't a problem in this game. The dark infused axe worked well up to this point, now I have to choose between Uchi, this ice longsword, and Vordt's weapon. I can't decide cause they're all really good. Finished the third area, the tree boss was full of surprises...

Vordt is defeated as of 6:30 PM Sunday. The axe with Dark element infused on it chunked his HP and really gimped the fight. Switched to my normal sword midway through to see if he was really that weak, and it did chip damage, so I suspect he's weak to Dark or maybe elements in general. Firebombs...

What's locked to 85, the gear? The gear's roughly VT-level so no way it's in on Teek. If anything, the ornamentations might be purchasable but that's probably it. To avoid exploits they're better off just removing the ToT zone. The second post is hilarious. Everything he said is probably...

Dark Souls 3 Update: Started it and played a couple hours before I had to go. Went with a Knight with the intention of making a Paladin-type character who can cast Faith spells. Named him Cecil (from FF4). Managed to not die until pretty late in the second zone (High Wall) when a couple of yard...

For Sekiro you can tap parry a lot like @Seananigans said, the window for it working is way more generous than Souls. I wouldn't spam hit it, but if you've got an attack incoming, you can tap and then tap again if you were too early. I usually did this double-tap to block things (sometimes...

Can those be obtained as soon as one hits level 55, given the level-scaling nature of the quests?

I keep hearing about Timeless Tokens being account-bound and how there's a chance people can spend them on Teek for OP stuff. Well, it doesn't look like they're account-bound. That said, if Tides of Time IS on Teek at launch, there isn't anything stopping people from forming a group at 60 and...

Anyone able to confirm if these things are really account-bound? They don't look account-bound. If they were, people should be scrambling to do these quests before Teek.

Seriously. The perfect server would be a combination of Selo and Mischief, where things move along quick. Not quite Selo quick though. 1 month isn't enough for a lot of expansions. But 3-4 months is ridiculous. I think I'd just do a blanket 2 months per expansion for all of them and starting...

I'd be happy to 3 box once OOW is out, or whenever truebox is lifted, if I'm still around. In the meantime it's one-boxing for me because I can't be arsed to have multiple computers up like I did in the past.

You suggesting I can't beat Vordt, motherfucka?

If you threadban me, I won't be able to post anything about playing Souls 3 when I get to it. Kind of counterproductive! Yeah, we are speedrunning EQ. After that first week there'll still be raids and whatnot to do. The main impediment is actually Elden Ring's DLC in a month and needing to...

Is it fair to say that Dark Souls 3 is 2nd-best behind Elden Ring in the Soulsborne roster? I've even heard rumblings that it's better than ER, just in a different way. It's much much smaller which allowed them to make every area as refined as possible since their attention wasn't spread out...

There is a massive well of money ready to fund the "fixing" of society and eventually usher in the One World Government of Commiefornia. Good luck getting funded if you have nothing to do with all of that stuff. It's kinda like how Chris Pratt got bashed as a "Trumper" just because he wouldn't...

The gayest thing Final Fantasy ever did was probably everything in Final Fantasy X-2. That game is a sweet dress-up simulator though. Still remember how pissed-off I got when Wakka said "happy festival fireworks" (or maybe that was FFX). There was also this scene where a city was burning in...

In my experience Faceless usually has stuff going on at all kinds of hours. Also this time around with like a zillion people playing that'll probably be even more the case. Sounds to me like the events are probably expansion-gated but the currency/cashing in for rewards might be...

Funny thing is, if someone did make me do that I'd be completely happy with it even though I just played them. Can't say that about any other series. It has no weak points. Even the lulls in design of DS1 and 2 are still part of a greater whole.

Not sure if Wurmslayer can be bought, cause I haven't seen any for sale. Might be a situation where you just need to be in Frontier Mountains (EOK) at the right time when someone's doing the event. I haven't managed to get one and at this point I probably won't bother. Conflagrant 2HS with the...

This is why I didn't list it. It's something you basically get automatically while doing the others. It's also purely cosmetic.

If there's no minimum requirement (like "sign up for six months") then there's nothing stopping people from just subscribing for one month, playing the game, and cancelling. Get the whole super duper ultimate edition for $18. Not like this is an MMO you'll keep playing.

I'm trying to figure out how this is going to remotely be an Assassin's Creed game. The guy is a huge brawler. Valhalla also had this issue to an extent. Sneaking was heavily de-emphasized because it was much easier to just equip two giant swords and bash everything Souls-style.

Rewrite history to have him be a huge respected superstar... ...or have the game be about his struggles with battling prejudice and institutional racism in a land that isn't inclined to accept him? ::guy sweating over which button to press meme::

Yeah, they sure did. FF16 started really good. After that first disaster with the evil queen walking past her own handmaidens as they got their throats cut, I was completely hooked. It was like a Game of Thrones FF game. Cid was also a tremendous character, and reminded me of Methos from the...

After replaying them, right now Dark Souls 1 is my least-favorite out of all of them. Demon Souls looks incredibly pretty on PS5 and has a unique atmosphere and world. The PS3 version isn't pretty, but it has an oppressive gloomy darkness that makes it also worth playing. Yeah, I consider the...

Yeah the framerate is awful, but I managed to get used to it and stop noticing it after a little while on that latest playthrough (not switching to any other games during the playthrough also made it easier to not notice). The fact that they've just abandoned Bloodborne with 30 FPS and no...

We also need Zweihander. Square over here sitting on a gold mine

High priority: -Yelinak kill at 50: Western Wastes port. Gonna be hugely useful for batphoning or just getting to raids in general. If people only do one thing, do this, unless you're not planning on doing Velious in-era or something. Mid priority: -Cazic kill at 40 and Lethar kill at 65...

Ya know, after seeing "try jumping" messages at death-cliffs and "hidden door" messages in front of solid walls for THE ENTIRE GAME... ...near the end of Dark Souls 2, in one of the DLCs, I finally stumbled upon an actual breakable wall / hidden door for the first time in ages. And it didn't...

Charayan would probably banish both of us. Not sure what the refresh timer is on the banish spell. I could have one character take the banish while my main runs by and FDs past him, which would put me right at Yelinak, but non-FD classes would have to stand and bang it out with Charayan and I'm...

Well I didn't get to try because in a solo run the Crusaders banish me before I can even get to him. Man, that's annoying. Charayan almost can't be avoided at all, though after 3 tries I nearly pulled it off. Got past him and lucked out, dropped FD right outside Yelinak's room, got hit by a...

I bet Yelinak is soloable by a correctly twinked-out level 50 SK (and probably other tank classes too). I'm willing to try. Feel like this has been answered already, but do people have to be in raid and DZ to get the achievement, or just the raid, or just the DZ?

Wow, it has been a long time since I heard the name Hard Gay. His "anal bomb" match with Mr. Gannosuke is the stuff of wrestling legend. Wait, that was Hayabusa. Damn I'm old.

OGC vs AOS, this ain't

The funniest part was the guy was calling our raid "chaos" before it even formed up, and kept calling it that throughout the evening, while the actual raid happened in way more of an orderly fashion than I think anybody predicted. Hundreds of cheevos and it was impressive how efficiently it all...
