    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    It can be strong, but you need to be at a point where you have cleared all of the initial area and the entire Morn Castle area (plus side dungeons) before tackling Margitt as a newb. Or you can just youtube the guide on getting the Meteroite staff to make your spells hit harder. You won't be...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    You should have Darkness and Flame by now, which rivals DMGS as a PVE weapon for a really long time. If you cheesed your way to the bird farm, cloud of flies is still worth using in certain situations to cheese fights like the one you desrcibed.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    The sword summon spell the prisoner starts with is good, but pebble works too. You can be sneaking and get the meterorite staff and boulder toss for this fight, but I did not need it on my newly minted sorcerer play. I was able to beat it at around L20 with the prisoner startup, using wolf...

    The laser beam from the sword of Dark and Flame is much better than Moonviel for that fight, but ultimately if you are not gimping them a fast weapon with reach is probably ideal. I am a big fan of the Tree Spear for this fight.

    Maybe, but all of his attacks are blockable or dodgeable, with huge tells, except for the point blank fire AE thing and maybe his snow shovel attack. The shovel attack is still blockable and he does not do it if you stick close. The fire AE has to be avoided, but its a slow windup. I just...

    The Gargs are fuckers mainly because they have stacked defenses, all immunities, and are chock full of moves that just plain shit on mele. The easy way to kill them is to work them towards the edge and get them to back jump suicide off the cliff. First time I beat them legit, I was packing a...

    Mimic tear with planning is very powerful, especially on certain mele builds. But Tiche is still the best, no question.

    Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)

    Above average movie, hindered by several things. Personal annoyances- 1) Shitty villian. Wanda was just completely batshit and illogical, basically a giant rubber monster. This is similar to what happened between IW and Endgame with Thanos. Olsen acted well with what she was given, but its...

    You are not wrong and the thought has crossed my mind, but I am full remote, no one fucks with me, and I live in Texas with zero debt at all (wife or me) so even with inflation right now I am making bank. As for your other post, I put this in our slack channel a lot: Its astounding how much...

    If her getting plowed by the poolboy frees up more time for him to play Elden Ring, I would say he may have come out ahead on the deal.

    I doubt it would affect the gankers, because they don't want fair fights. Thats a product of how big this game is, because in DS1 the arena area was a lot of fun and in DS2 and DS3 most invaders were fairly sporting about things, aside from Ardo Lando shield wall guy and a few others like him...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    DC had the largest cannon storyline for multiple universes with the entire Earth 2 Justice Society books that ran concurrently and crossed over frequently with the JLA books of the time. They tried to reset it at various points, because it got out of hand, with the Crisis event, then again with...

    Not to mention John Wesley-Ship as various alternate Flashes and Barry's dad. Before that you had Reeve in Smallville and even Adam West in Batman TAS. Theres a long history of it in comic series/cartoons over the years.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Yeah its definitely about patience and positioning, as are nearly all the dragons in this game. I prefer that kind of fight because if you die its completely due to a mental error and not twitch/feint/RNG fuckery. I felt the Fire Giant was much the same way. The later Magma Wurms remind me a...

    Wife and I watched Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard. No real surprises in the script and its a bit more cartoony than the first one was, but its hard not to be entertained by Samuel L and Reynolds just riffing for an entire movie. Solid 7/10 movie for us, but if you didn't like the first it would...

    He can be hard to solo at lower levels, but a decent summon (bird or jellyfish will work here) can give you the window to smoke him. This is a good place to use any bleed or magic greases early in the game, if you have them.

    They deliberately uggoed up the characters in general in that game. And yeah, everyone was some sort of diversity checkbox person aside from maybe the highly forgettable Krogan. There was a ton of agenda pushing too (Asari retcon being the most obvious one) in that game. You don't send...

    No, it won't. There is a specific crowd that likes BB/Seikiro, but its not the broad audience that latched on to ER. Elden Ring has casual appeal, thanks to the vast variety of builds, biomes, and less twitchy gameplay. BB has none of that and would not fit an open world concept nearly as...

    Radahn is easy to beat, if you don't care about gimping yourself for Epeen points. Summon pals, sit back and res them as they get killed and wait til Radahn leaps in the air for his metor move. Once he is airborne, get to the edge of the arena near the ocean death drop. He will rocket in from...

    Yeah some bosses can just get in your head and work against your playstyle. For me, it is those fucking star beasts in the meteor craters. Those fucking things thrash me constantly and I am not sure why.

    You spam quoted one word a dozen or so times like a kid with Tourette's syndrome announcing the Sesame Street letter of the day. Hooray for you I guess?

    If your mimic is getting melted in a fight (and its not one with shit loads of ground AE), its usually a good sign that you are not packing good enough resists for that particular fight. Also for some of the ground AE spamming bosses, the bird summon (Warhawk Deeth) works surprisingly well...

    Its sad that we had to resort to twinking our own characters a bit, but its solved the ganking issue for the most part. Its still annoying in some areas. The wife and I were cooping the Gelnir Mountain area, doing the big run to the star beast. Same asshole invaded us like four times in a...

    If you go through the trouble to get the Darkmoon Greatsword, you get the best of both worlds with minimal investment in STR. I sort of did that in reverse in my main playthough with an all around build that repecced into high INT after getting the weapon, but there are some solid INT scaling...

    Wife and I made some more progress, wrapping up Fia's questline and nailing some random shit in rot continent we missed. Gankers still come out in droves, but thanks to me twinking myself with Rivers of Blood and the wife's sorc hitting 70 int and having MLGS, we win far more than we lose to...
