    And another bearer of the curse takes the throne...

    Posted: 16 Nov 2019 11:25 AM PST

    I have finally made it, and damn, I wish I hadn't.
    For all those hours I spent, whether worthy or wasteful. All those deaths I had to face, whether fair or unjust, whether diverse or repetitive, whether I tried again after or quit in shame. I found myself in great regret for consuming this story and condemning myself to never enjoy it for the first time ever again.
    Dark Souls II has been a great journey for me. A journey of discovery in a barren abandoned world. A world filled with despair and gloomy faces. As whoever's not willing to kill you on sight, will otherwise kill you inside. With words, the sharpest most painful and memorable ones.
    The discovery of my own self. The shady feelings and obscure sentiments hidden within, only reveled by this absolute masterpiece.
    I have first played this game four years ago. Being my first Souls game, it was a bit tedious and difficult to comprehend. I made the wrong choices, and soon enough, I run out of effigies, and it seemed impossible to go past the sentinels.
    After countless deaths, after Lost Bastille had lost all its inhabitants, I found myself running alone to the same boss fight, to die again each time. Despite that, I couldn't beat them, or I hadn't tried hard enough. So, I gave up!
    Now, last week, I blew the dust off this game, and I decided to try it again. That was after I went for Dark Souls I. Having beat that game, I built enough confidence to go for this one, the unfinished business.
    And despite the setbacks, I blitzed through its levels and bosses. Sprinting over water, or lave. Toxicated, cursed, hit by dark, or by beams of magic.
    I stood strong and solid. I only sought forward, never thinking to bail behind.
    But despite the constant feelings of despair that the NPCs attempted to air towards me, I often deflected that by sinking in those beautiful paysages! The restless sea with its roaring waves! The clear skies with their many stars! The dark cloudy night with its brightest moon! The furious red clouds with their hot breaths!
    I think I went too far with this. I should stop here and say what I wanted to be said.
    I, bearer of the curse. I bore the curse, I accepted the curse, and I let it take me where it was meant to. I finished Dark Souls II and I absolutely loved it!
    Excuse me English.

    [Scholar] I just discovered the hidden undead next to Agdayne. He has to be the hide and seek champion of Dark Souls.

    Posted: 16 Nov 2019 01:48 AM PST

    He is on the left wall next to Agdayne. IT'S 2019 AND ONLY YET DID I DISCOVER HIM! If that is not worthy of an achievement (for the hidden undead), then I don't know what is.

    He truly is the hide and seek champion of Dark Souls.

    Posted: 16 Nov 2019 09:27 AM PST

    I've no human effigy, nor sin, I'm hallow and Ive exhausted all the Milfanitos dialogue.

    What could the problem be?

    Edit: no effigies in the bottomless box either

    There anything as good as the Rapier in the beginning?

    Posted: 16 Nov 2019 09:49 AM PST

    Starting a new run soon, and I'm honestly tired of the Rapier being Boss Killer Extreme and I am super tired of the Mace. Is there anything just as good? (Not including the Clubs either) I was also thinking of doing a quality build until mid-late game until I can fully specialize in one of the two without downfalls

    Good god why did nobody warn me

    Posted: 16 Nov 2019 01:15 PM PST

    Was playing through Crown of the Ivory King and just getting my shit pushed in, so I decided to go try one of the other dlcs for a while.

    I thought Eleum Loyce was bad until I got into Brume Tower. Holy hell this is a nightmare.

    What are some enemy weapons you wanted but don't drop?

    Posted: 16 Nov 2019 01:08 PM PST

    Ds2 has the most robust list of weapons and armour out of the trilogy, yet some of the best and coolest looking weapons aren't available for player use.

    Greatsword for INT/FTH build?

    Posted: 16 Nov 2019 11:00 AM PST

    I am doing an int/faith build, right now I use the Fire sword, and sorcers staff. I also use pyromancy. I used onyx blade and flame scar in DS3. I spent most of my time with the claymore in DS1, as STR build.

    I like to use a heavy sword, and no shield. But right now I am using a 100% Physical block shield and 1H sword just like my first run of DS3 (my first souls game).

    Should I infuse a greatsword? If so magic, or enchanted for int/faith build?

    I have been loving ds2! I think I might like it more than 1. But 3 is forsure my favorite.

    Thanks in advance!

    [Co-op] [PC] Wanna take on Horsefuck Valley? Summon me, Scaaret!

    Posted: 16 Nov 2019 08:35 AM PST

    I'm not an expert of the area, but I'm packing 6 casts of Great Heal, 2 of Repair, and the Crown of the Old Iron king, so I basically have infinite endurance to trudge through the place killing horses.

    SM: 2.6 million Heirs of the Sun, but I don't plan on wearing the agape ring so that number will creep up as the days goes on if people summon me.

    Wish me luck!

    Edit: two points of interest: I'm not going to have my summon sign down all day since I need to eat and stuff, so the best way to get me is to message me on reddit or to comment here. Also, I will PM my steam username if you'd like to use chat there. Again just message me on reddit or comment.

    Edit 2: I have purchased the name engraved ring and selected the god of struggle, in case our SM is too far apart to meet up without that

    I found a solution for the hitbox issues

    Posted: 16 Nov 2019 03:43 AM PST

    I will play as an archer entire game so there won't be any hitbox issue I think and since I will be an archer I don't even need leveling adp stat mumbo jumbo. I will just dump my stats into stamina and vit then it's done. This works for sorcerers too.

    Co-op gamertag let’s play

    Posted: 15 Nov 2019 11:03 PM PST

    I finally got all but two achievements: the miracle one, and of course the dark soul. But my character is like tier 40 soul memory and the player base is so low anyways. Offline farming with best item discovery equipment on falconers and banediggers yielded 1 sunlight medal in multiple hours. It's not worth it to 100% the game if that drop rate continues, so does anyone need some help with any bosses/want someone to play with?

    Message ManateeMan37

    Thanks

    What's your favourite OST In this game?

    Posted: 15 Nov 2019 04:37 PM PST

    Mine is the Burnt Ivory King's. The opening is really intense, but also sounds mournful to me. The quiet bits are what makes it great, maybe it represents his love for Alsanna? Anyway, what's your favourite theme?

    DS SotfS Connectivity

    Posted: 16 Nov 2019 12:30 AM PST

    I cannot figure this out! I can see messages and I can see other players running around. But I cant invade, as soon as I use the cracked red eye orb I get a message that says "couldnt find world to invade". This is odd because I get about one summon per login. I've tried going into the firewall and changing the settings from "block edge traversal" to "allow edge traversal" this allowed me to see one small soapstone sign today. After successfully summoning that one person I was immediately left alone again. I do not have this issue with DSR and DS3. I dont even have this issue on DS2 but for some reason DS2 SotfS gives me no one to summon!

    ---EDIT!---

    My friends and I wore the name ring with the same God selected and I'm not under the effects of a human effigy at the bonfire.

    What's up with the movesets?

    Posted: 15 Nov 2019 04:36 PM PST

    Don't get me wrong, I really like this game. But am I missing something, or do the weapon movesets just kind of suck? Like the longsword, you can't link a regular attack after a power attack like you could in DS1. And I just picked up the Zweihander which was my favorite weapon in DS1 and in DS1 you could just do continuous overhead smashes. In this one, you can do one overhead smash, followed by a backwards attack? Wtf is that? I mean yeah you can still hit them, but you have to be like super close. Wtf yall lol.

    I just made it to the iron keep and I'm really enjoying this game, so don't take it as me hating on DS2 cuz I'm not. I'm just saying, like, how do y'all feel about the movesets? Like maybe I'm missing something but I thought DS1 movesets were better. Although the Zweihander does seem to swing slightly faster in this game...

    This is just my opinion but yeah. Any thoughts?

    Also yes, I finally saw the legendary elevator to iron keep... still trying to figure this one out, but I mean it's whatever lol.
