That will come in handy. Thanks!
I don't really keep up with the meta, so I don't know if I can help. But is there any attribute you are leaning towards? And have you played the DLC? Those added a ton of new weapons and spells, too.
I'm not sure to be honest. I personally liked the Great Corvian Scythe better, but that was purely PvE. (I assume you are looking for a PvP build?)
I guess he didn't like to fly as much as the other ones so they read him books and he got really smart
It has been challenging. The katana's parry window is small to begin with (4 frames as opposed to a parry shield's 12), and while it starts on the same frame as medium shields, the weapon's parry motion makes it hard to time correctly. You probably know you start in the sheathed stance and then pull the katana out and upwards, right? Well, the actual parry doesn't start until the katana is moving upward, as opposed to the moment you unsheathe it. This makes it very tricky to pull off. Much more than with parry shields, you have to know exactly which attack will be coming and what that means for your timing. I find enemies like Darkwraiths nearly impossible to parry because of this, since they act so erratically. Whereas Hodrick was actually parry bait with his slow, telegraphed two-handed overheads.
Crazy that months later, jschreier's speculation is still being taken as fact and assumed to be as such... I'm tempted to say that it's borderline irresponsible from him, surely he knew what he was doing ;)
I can't get the timing right for parrying the keeper but admittedly I haven't tried that much. I have a fully upgraded LHB I'll try this method for the dog , thanks.
From Reddit:
DS:R' s online community died really quickly, unfortunately.
It's got some of the toughest bosses in the whole game, so NG+ can be rough for a first time through it. They pretty much expect you to be there with a +10 weapon though, so it can also be rough going to the DLC as soon as possible in a new playthrough (after Amelia). I would play on NG personally.
Bloodborne!
Nah I've played the absolute shit out of Bloodborne. I never want to go back after getting the platinum trophy. :p
Check out the Aldrich Faithful covenant, which invades the area past Pontiff's bonfire. You'll have no shortage of invader teammates there.
yep, then they taunt you like they did something great vs. them just ganking you with 2 other players. it's annoying as hell.
I've got a question about that stuff. She says she sees tiny embers in the dark. Is the implication that the age of dark doesn't last forever? Or did I misread that altogether?
Damn, I think you are right. That structure near the bottom of the first screenshot, next to the souls counter, looks like the place where that one Cathedral Knight stands. And in the second screenshot I think I recognize the part with the two Cathedral Knights just before the boss arena.
I think so, yeah. After all, the age of fire itself would have ended a looooong time ago if Gwyn hadn't decided to maintain it by any means necessary. Before the age of fire, there was the age of grey, I believe, which was ruled by the Everlasting Dragons. So Grey --> Fire --> Dark. Who knows what comes afterwards. The embers implicate a new age of fire, but it could also be meant as a sign the age of dark isn't the apocalypse it was made out to be.
There are parts where the mob spam is more annoying than fun in both. Ariandel in particular is so well designed but the enemy placement frequently puts it on the wrong side of the challenging/dumb line.
