Nope. Just go for the best ratio 1HBs you can find. Staff of Shielding is the popular one, but there are a bunch. Don't use 2HB until 20+ when the damage cap lifts. Even then stick with your best ratio weaps. Later, empty H2H takes the lead.

I don't remember if I knew about rot breath or was using it or what. I just remember that Radahn kicked my ass on week one, just like he kicked everybody else's ass. Then I leveled Vigor up and won and the rest of the game was smooth sailing.

Well, the cat's out of the bag now. Don't ban me for fashion questing with Robes of Smothering and Phinny staves on a monk.

The price of coins has really dropped, not even worth selling them now IMO. Might as well just hold onto them for your own items so you don't have to keep farming tower with a low level character. That said, I could see someone making reasonably decent plat still if they actually feel like...

Because people knew all of this on week one... Generally speaking, I prefer to play as dudes in games where the dude is an active part of the story and the story is designed for that character (Nioh, Witcher 3, God of War). Also in MMOs and other online games where I'm interacting with other...

Am I understanding correctly that the terminally-ill main character's name is Sam, her cat's name is Frodo, and the movie is her quest to get to northern Manhattan and get one last slice of pizza before the world ends? That's both ludicrous and poignant. Like some sort of bizarre distortion of...

Alright, I'm finding it hard to believe the DLC ends when it does.

Looks like I do. Barbed Staff-Spear, with Jori's Inquisition? Would need to re-spec to use it and I'm down to one Larval Tear (re-specced probably 15 times over my NG to NG+++ run). I'll try it out in the next run, assuming it doesn't get nerfed before then. Probably going to call it a day with...

What rustles my jimmies: These fucking billboards everywhere and having to look at them all over the place while sitting in traffic.

Ah, I think I totally missed this haunted mansion place. I'm guessing it's in the Abyssal Woods as I hoped outta there pretty quick after meeting the Bloodborne Frenzy Brains On Adderall.

Not really. Tested it a bit myself and it's overrated, nothing to see here. Not kidding. You're still here? Go on, go. The movie's over.

EVERQUESSSSSSST!

This was Radahn at launch that took a bunch of tries, I didn't have any Scarlet Rot, and had been neglecting Vigor. Most of ER gave me basically no issue. The few things that did, really did. Radahn, Fire Giant, Malenia. Think there was something else too. Maybe the guy in Castle Sol with the...

I like playing as hot chix, bro. Nothing wrong with that.

Where's the red dress from the trailer? And how early can it be obtained after arriving in the DLC? Want to get it for my NG lady whenever I get to that point.

In my original playthrough, Radahn was the boss that forced me to go level-grind and add like 15 points to Vigor before continuing. Up to that point I was fine, then he killed me like 10 times. Was the most trouble I had with anything in the base game besides Fire Giant and Malenia.

Do the wicker men drop anything good? Like scadutree upgrades? I'd kill 'em if so. Otherwise I just book it past them, like I do with bears and erdtree avatars.

Lol? Having never played a lot of stuff, just going by what I've heard, I think this is a potentially good, rudimentary DLC ranking: 12. Mario Kart 8: Whatever that was that added 50% more tracks 11. Bioshock 2: Minerva's Den 10. DS1: Artorias of the Abyss 9. FONV: Old World Blues 8. AC4...

What was it? WHAT'S IN THE BOOOOOX?

Never seen any of these, need some horror to watch that I haven't already seen. What's the best order to watch them, this before the other two or this after the other two?

Sent you a bunch of cleric stuff bro.

Someone with more experience than me needs to do a definitive "best DLCs of all time" analysis so we can find out who the winner is between SOTE, XB2, Torna, Witcher 3's two DLCs, and Iceborne. Or perhaps something else entirely. Cyberpunk? Scholar of the First Sin and Witcher 3 could be...

Could also be adderall. Back when I was on that stuff I would hyperfocus on whatever I was doing. Could spend 10 hours on a project without stopping and not even realize the time had gone by. It would be very conducive to doing wild challenges like level 1 no hit. Only level 1 run I ever did in...

There's a bit of a magic-return in having no idea what mobs will drop (until you familiarize yourself with all the drop bucket charts and lose that). At launch we had no idea what we'd get from named drops, and saw a bunch of obscure items drop that most of the group had never even heard of. It...

I see @Ginix is lurking. As for lions, there's actually something kinda nice about people just playing / enjoying the game soloing in the Karanas like it's still 1999. Not worried about the meta or ZEM or anything like that, just chilling and playing the game.

Yeah it's pretty awesome how that happens. Talked to a random tomboyish lesbian today, said I couldn't wait for the evening so I could get back to Elden Ring, and she proceeded to tell me how she loves the game and thought the Fire Giant was the toughest fight in the whole game and she couldn't...

Defeated Messmer on the second try. After what a complete drubbing I've taken on most of the DLC bosses, I was shocked at how little HP Messmer seemed to have in comparison. Scadutree level 10/5, so maybe that's why. Used the stronger fire-resistance consumable before walking in the door which...

Tremendous. Wait, where's her ear? WHERE'S HER EAR??

I'm WTB a few more things and haven't had time to troll the commons: Greenmist Helm, Rubicite Boots/Arms, Tattered Flesh Veil, Adamantite Epaulets. Send me a message on here if you're selling, or just parcel me. TY @Leon Yeah, you're right. I rarely question negs for that very reason, but for...

This morning's sesh: After losing to Midir a few times, I loaded up ER NG+++ and explored the SE swamp lands (noped out when I got to those unkillable poise-god frenzy monsters) and the NW ruins. Beat the centipede-scorpion and it was good to get an actual win on something. Only map I'm missing...

I read that Midir is very weak to Pestilent Mist, as well. I don't have the int to cast that (as I haven't cast a single spell in DS3) so it'd require a respec. Also he's weak to lightning enchant, which I CAN do.

You can parry Midir? Wow, no wonder I was doing chip damage the whole time. Wonder if Nameless King was like that, considering that was also a chip damage fight.

Also missed (most of) Mischief, and can agree that Teek might be ruining standard EQ for me. The only downside in theory is that when you want to target a specific item it can be lost in the shuffle, but I was also able to get GEB at Efreeti and Guise at Assassin both within a couple spawns...

Kinda curious why there are like 20 people crowded into the Neriak bank...

Well now I know why certain guilds were nowhere to be found for the first ten days. (I already knew this.)

Tried a couple more times this evening, all losses. Midir has so damn much HP that eventually I inevitably run out of Estus. He isn't actually defeating me at any point before that, I'm just losing the attrition war. Every time. At best I get him down to about 40% and then I'm out of estus and...

Yeah for sure. I guess it's good to call the cops and have them come to a report even if it appears at the time that the cars are un-damaged and no one was injured. I do have multiple witnesses at least if the girl tries to deny it (which I doubt, we already talked it over). Got the car...

I don't know the numbers, but it appears that the number of people has held very steady. All of the tier-2 raiding guilds are farming VP keys / epics now and SONH, DL, LOIO, etc are more crowded than at any point since launch.

Finally got back to DS3 (Gael and Midir left). Took a stab at Midir. Got him to 40% on the first try. This is the game's toughest fight? Did significantly worse on the 2nd and 3rd tries though. That seems to happen a lot with these games, you'll fare the best on your first attempt and then...

I think we just lucked out and the shock was fully absorbed by the bumpers. Not even a cracked light. I did get knocked forward though, and my phone-holder dislodged from the dashboard which takes a lot. So it's a miracle that the cars somehow seemed unscathed. I will need to get the car checked...
