REPOST!!

Thing that kinda bugs me is the menu, can't see how much HP you currently have and other small stuff. Hope they fix those small things when it hits Steam.

That's cause he likes the game. From a aesthetic and gameplay mechanics side (although only second-hand, since never played either one) I also think Demon and the two Dark Souls are truly superlative games. The bosses in 2 being dissapointingly generic for the most part, or recycles from other Soul games, is just a minor complaint. If anything it shows how good the character design was in general, that random mobs can stand out as having more character and look more interesting than some bosses.

On my third char now, going to try upping a greatsword to fire and maxing out hp and end maybe some attune and go pyro..

Lol just basically oneshot the pursuer boss, dunno if the ballista thing bugged but i shot it once and then he died to my next swing. Looked like it did damage twice so im guessing it double shot somehow.

Pursuer you basically need 2 people or more to defeat him quickly. Funny when people accidentally shoot the host or another phantom

Meh, hes easy solo. Right side blind spot.


Holy crap Creighton's armour set looks amazing as a dual wielder.

its like the "F2P" armor every noob uses :PP

I havent seen anyone use it, i used the helmet though..

Kept getting matched up with a guy who used a lightning buffed straight sword i think, who 3 shot me all in a combo, his running attack could be comboed up with 2 more swings which was just silly. My hits on the other hand did barely no damage and thats a +10 fire falchion buffed with flame weapon from pyro. I guess his great magic barrier blocked most of it being fire buffed.
Strange thing, with 40 dex the non-infused falchion does less damage than a fire infused one with no int/fth.. i guess only S scaling weapons outclass elementals.

The kuyak of DS2.

almost every invasion/arena i do i meet a guy using full Vengarl armor and some claymore ish weapon...... its like 70% of the players

Soul memory shit seems broken, im in NG+ SL130 but it feels like im fighting SL200 people, because i notice when im fighting someone with the same average hp as me but then afterwards i get matched up with someone who tanks 5x as much..

yeah i am SL136-7 on all my 3 chars and i get matched with ppl who are super weak or whos super strong.... like this one time i got matched with a caster on my STR char with 50 str and +10 Drakekeepers greataxe and i did 1.1K dmg on my backstab and it was even not close to half his HP he was wearing black robes even :/......

[Gravoth_iii]

Okay so the guy i just invaded who took a shit ton of hits answered me, he was SL150 so guess thats fine not SM to blame. BUT he had 2.4k hp, maxing out vig is apparently stronk. So i respecced and went from 1.4k to 2k hp, s'good.

Also 2handing now, the dual wield animations suck ass with curved swords, it doesnt track at all.
