You are not supposed to stay at lvl 150 and other lvl that the community say 'pvp levels' the game was designed so you can be 200 300 lvl and have 50 in all stats and stuff.It's not necessary that you stay at that lvl and have to chose 50 str or 50 int.

Spells are so easy to dodge though, and can be punished with backstab mostly.

You cant dodge instant poison fog, no matter what you do.  :P Besides, some combos are nigh impossible to dodge it all

I havent encountered the insta poison fog yet, i guess it wasnt discovered when i was pvping. Shit sounds nasty though, probably getting patched soon if from are aware, there's quite a bit that need slight fixing.

And with the new roll animation invincibility frames, it takes some time to learn the new dodge time, or just get tons of AGI / Adapt, which is sort of like waste tbh. like resistance.
I love me some ADP, dem i frames real stronk, totally worth sacrificing some points for. If you decide not to get it then dodging magic may be slightly harder, but then you should pick a shield with high or 100% magic block.

Yeah but if you pvp at level 800 everyone will have the exact same build. At 150 you have to chose whether if you want to focus on casting or on melee. The meta level decided by the community is there so pvp isnt scattered.



Gave this guy quite a beating.

Guys I am thinking of buying Dark Souls II atm but I don't want tobwaste 50€. The point is I don't know whether I'd like the gameplay of it or not. Is there any compareable game to it? (Ps: I dont watch gameplays because I do NOT want to spoiler myself)

You get 1 more iframe from maxing out adp, compare it to the darkwood grain ring from DS1 which gave you 7  :P

I had 26 ADP before I respecced, now im back to 3. All I feel is my estus chug is slow. People hyped up ADP etc early in ds2, but nobody's been really able to confirm what it does except speed up item uses and shield raise and the 1 "rumoured" iframe. Even the writers of the official guide dont know exactly what it does. All I know is those 22 points I had in adp were better spendt for equip burden and longer rolls.

I've been at 38 ADP most of my playtime, and when i start a new game and play without maxed ADP i notice a huge difference, there is no way its only 1 iframe.

When you reach that 100 agility either by your attunement or adp, you get that extra frame. Video makes it quite clear, it IS just 1 frame  :wink:
