This amazes me, because until Elden Ring came along, DS3 had to be the most friendly game for soul farming up to where you wanted to be in the entire series. And Elden Ring is only easy because the Bird farm is a thing for folks who can get there. I agree that their love of poison swamps is...

Yeah the whole lead up to the aquaduct area is full of shit to do. Also, there is a deer boss who requires you to light all torches to access that is kind of interesting at the level you should be to be there. If the orc guys are giving you issues, slapping a holy ash on your favorite weapon...

Cool with the latter, but on the former point you have played this game right? The herky jerky feints, agro changes, and outright unreadable enemies is one of the biggest complaints of vets. That would be workable if breath attacks from dragons were not a death sentence to level appropriate...

Well maybe I did not get to all the ones in my main play yet, but it sure seems like if you don't have a horse you get skunked by the airborne breath attacks.

I dont mind them doing that for balance, if it does not make some things flat impossible / huge difficulty spike. The open world dragon fights are nearly impossible (unless you are way overleveled) without the horses and a lot of areas are flatly inaccessbile without them as well.

yeah, which makes dragons a pita and several explorations a pain too.

Actually started a new play so that the wife and I can side by side coop play. She is a total newb, but has the caster cheese thing down. I am basically her ashes tank running the samurai. Only cheese we did was getting her the Rock Toss and Meteorite Staff (two actually since I traded her...

Level Arcane to 15, get Cloud of Flies from Mogh area on the way to bird farm, get dragon talisman from some early area I forget. Spam flies until desired results achieved. Works on just about all of the human sized enemies and a lot of bosses. Alternatively, a lot of the prancy agile enemies...

Yeah I fucked that one up because the second NPC was off the beat and path to the boss.

I know I said the other post was the stupidest thing you have ever posted. I stand corrected. Bravo....?

I think if I were looking for a picture to sum up the concept of Beta Faggot it would be impossible to top this one.

Poise is the main benefit of heavier armor and its pretty huge. But it takes major investment to get to the 80-100 poise where you really see a strong impact. Other than that, resists are nice in certain cases, especially the one that resists bleed buildup since every fucking enemy in...

Its situational. Tiche is great if you need some damage and are spamming bleed. Mimic is best if you just need a tank distraction, especially if your main character is tanky with a decent weapon art. I also like mimic for costing HP so I can manage my magic pots in certain situations. I ran...

LOL what weapon is that?

Concur with this, but if you are into daggers the one you get from the Alecto light boss early on is pretty solid now that they unfucked scaling. I mean on paper, winged scythe is my second hardest hitting weapon (I am L128 and just starting to explore the capitol), it just does next to no...

Alecto is easy if you know the trick. Equip a moderate stamina weapon with reasonable stagger (spears are a good choice). Lure her to the edge so she is wedged next to a rock and a cliff. Spam R1 and never stop. Dumb as shit, but easy way to beat her as mele. That first born of the void...

Yeah I dont PvP and even I have 30 in Vitality and wear the hp amulate constantly. Everyone seems to have a hardon for alpha strike, probably because the birdfarm combined with the removal of item durability has eliminated all downsides to dying in PvP as an invader or summon.

I transitioned to a couple of different weapons myself for this reason. I had been heavily leaning on the Gold Halberd with a magic pike as my backup. Now I rotate between the Sword of Dark and Flame, Tree spear, a holy ring toss enchanged Naginata, and Wing Scythe depending on what I am...

Joe Flacco says hello.

Joruus C'Boath would be an awesome choice, actually. And people forget Lloyd can be a serious actor when he wants.

I died a shit ton to Godrick because I was way underleveled and undergeared. Once I got him down and was able to equip the gold halberd, going back and helping others was a way to git gud and now he is a chump. Hardest part for me in this game has been getting used to the fucking move cancels...

In the original FF1, there was a lot of tech littered about from an advanced civilization that had previously existed on the world. There is a whole quest to learn their language and an area where the hardest enemies in the game (Warmechs) can be found. That said, the biggest problem with all...

I had been rocking the Gold Halberd continuously from the moment I got it, but have since moved on to the Tree Spear. Does not hit as hard, but better defensively, faster, and much better reach. Its also better in tight quarters since it mostly imitates the pike move set. Alternatively, if...

Yeah I wish you could disable the L3 dismount. Fucking gets me gacked fighting the overland dragons. And the ferryman boss is probably the easiest one in the game, especially when you can use the horse. Summon literally anything to keep his skeletons busy, run up and whack until his boat...

Yeah when we were still playing Kings regularly, my wife used that terrain set for all the dioramas for her Basilean (angels and nuns) army. Its a really great kit.

On the one hand, a bit of walter mitty escapism and an odd 80s teen romcom vibe could work. On the other hand, durka durka woke shit is all they are going for and they will fuck it up beyond belief. Kind of want to watch it just to see if it can surpass Another Life as the worst woke show ever...

Yeah remember that now. Plus he doubled down when the backlash hit. Not a surprise, but he doubled down super hard and alienated a lot of his original backers. We cancelled and we were far from the only ones.

The big one will be the bird farm camp. Lot of people miking the shit out of that one. But usually they mostly tackle PvP issues, which means the Death/Madness spam and similar stuff will get nerfed hard. I expect the super laser mage one shot stuff to be next, since it trivializes any boss...

Nope. The designer literally told people who did not follow BLM could and should get a refund because he did not want to sell it to such people. Take a wild guess what happened next. Dude literally rewrote content and has publicly talked about rewriting the base game to be more "diversity...

Their backing got raped when they went full on woke. They are also getting cornholed by supply chain issues like everyone else, I am sure.

That movie tanked that guys career so bad most people never saw him again until he played Eddington on DS9 decades later.

Pain and Gain was a work of genius.

Hudson Hawk is actually one of my favorite movies on many levels. I introduce friends to it regularly who all end up enjoying it. It was a victim of hollywood media ant some bad timing and press. Disclaimer, seeing it on acid turns it into a god tier movie.

The normies survived four kings, Dancer, False King, Ornstein and Smoag, and Godrick. This too shall pass.

Obscure mini, but love it and it has been my unicorn since the beginning (bought and repained three times this is the first attempt):

Also older news with this army, though I special painted a new hero for it. But a few old school 8th edition WHFB guys wanted to do a one day tourney this weekend and I got specifically asked to roll out this list again. Its my old comped soft to the stupid Swedish system Unicorn based army...

One of my favorite old school models and characters. I have used the old pewter mini as part of many conversions.

Time waits for no man, sir. We all got old. I mean, Wrath of Khan is 40 years old this year.
