Did you scrap being hoplite Gravoth?

Dragonslayer spear had shit damage and unbuffable, most other spears are boring. Trying something strengthy now.

Partizan lightning infused has decent damage, and I love its moveset. Might be worth checking out  :P

Well i lightning'd my gyrm greataxe now and buff with sunlight blade, packs a decent punch, pretty fun weapon overall. Just need to get a good looking armour set going, since mine is pretty basic and boring.

I did try faith with sunlight blade on my lightning infused weapon. Immediately felt like a buffbot, and I was hitting like a truck and I could take 3 magic nukes instead of 2 thanks to great magic barrier. Respecced back to my "pure" build tho, I'm less powerful, but more rewarding and not as cheesy as I feel all these magic and buff users are.

Pff, you honour whore just go with the game, its not like your using the batstaff.

Btw have you guys seen the quest you have to do to get the Pickaxe? In brightstone cove you have to take one of the piggys at the first bonfire, and lead him all the way past the first boss area, down into the cove and through it into the first building past a bridge with spikes below it. In there there are some mushrooms, piggy will eat these and poop out a pickaxe. WTF From?!...

Oh also guys, join the steam group, we could sit in the group chat for easy fightings n stuffs.

This game is so cool.. I am pretty bad but god, I swear I can stay at an area for 2 hrs straight and just try over and over.. I still havent killed the dragon knight at Heide's something. Playing it on xbox 360, my pc can barely run skyrim so I figure it won't run on my pc?

I loot corpses of their golden teeth.
But he'll be around somewhere between Heaven and The Devil, because neither of them will take him in, and he'll be farting loudly and singing a filthy song.

i'll be there at around

I heard its well optimised, that even shitty computers can run it smoothly at if not maxed then medium graphics.

I like the overall enviroment/map/area a lot more than the one in DS1. Not sure why, it just feels better.

Muling in Dark Souls 2, at least on Ps3 enabled you to go to max level and have no soul memory :P

Also found this little texture bug in "The Gutter"

(click to show/hide)


its not a bug its how its supose to be



also the picaxe quest yeah pretty bullshit, but the weapon isnt that good compared to others. and every damn axe weapon got the same animations. only good one is drakekeeper's greataxe with its long reach. roll+R1 all day xP

in my opinion, the layout of the first one was a lot better. it feels much more cohesive to me for some reason, and each area was pretty cool. i cant help but feel like DS2's areas are kind of cramped or slightly rushed... (alot of them are supposed to be dreadful, but lots of them really feel like blighttown, ie annoying but not necessarily hard)

i myself just got to the area after drangelic castle.... it's a nice one.

the bosses could be cooler as well.... and soul memory might be the worst implementation ever... (the total amount of souls you ever obtain are factored into your summoning/invading. so if you stay at level 120, your soul memory will keep increasing and you'll keep fighting people with more soul memory, ie higher levels. you'll also be unable to help people in an area with a boss)

ALSO, similar to the first one, hybrids seem almost superior than just staying melee (ie infusions and faith/sorcery buffs)
