    I gave DS2 another chance

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 09:13 AM PST

    I'm an Og souls player starting with demon souls on ps3. I played each souls game as they came out and when ds2 came out i wasn't much of a fan. In fact i beat it once and never played it again. Recently i just borrowed it from my buddy for the ps4 and i'm absolutely loving it. It might be my new second favorite souls game actually. I feel it's really unique and bold compared to other souls games. It's by far the biggest. There are soooo many bosses. I've played 20 hours on my current character and feel like i've barely scratched the surface of it. I absolutely love the power stancing and the twin blades, it gives the game a unique approach and build choices. There are also tons of super unique and cool designed armors all through out the game. So far my favorite has got to be the Iron Clad set. Anyways, i just wanted to say i feel like ds2 is hated on way too much and i'm extremely glad i decided to give it another go.

    Just barely first tried the old dragon slayer

    Posted: 08 Feb 2021 09:27 PM PST

    Honestly This boss was oddly hard for me to figure out how to fight since I got lost and did not expect to have to fight that dragon to get there since I thought it was un kill able

    I would say this boss is one of my favorites so far in this game I did prefer the sentinels over it tho

    Transition from DS2 to DS3 - visual information overload

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 11:09 AM PST

    I've just started playing Dark Souls 3, after enjoying over 200 hrs in DS2. The game looks fantastic, but the overload of visual information hurts my eyes! I find the DS2 visual experience much more soothing, less busy. I had the same with the Gears of War games - too much too look at and track.

    Just beat Aldia!

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 10:04 AM PST

    After giving up on DS2 at launch I finally revisited the game and just finished it.

    Putting some points into ADP was a real game changer. Rolling with additional invincibility frames feels so good - I think that is what DS2 does better than the other Souls series games. It keeps the combat fast, and allows for an aggressive play style that DS1 didn't encourage as much.

    I played 1/2 of the game with the Bastard Sword with a Strength build, and rounded off the latter parts of the game with the Greatsword. Love the potential to keep mashing when two handed, and sweeping when single handed.

    I can't think of a favourite boss fight, but I liked the Pursuer because his constant appearances were memorable and a fun challenge.

    I hope you'll accept me into the fold as a born-again DS2 fan after my initial stubbornness against the game!

    Build Showcase: Meet the Pyro

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 11:09 AM PST

    Meet the Pyro

    The problem with creating a build based on the Pyro is a matter of fashion rather than function. There's no shortage of pyromancies with which to burninate the countryside, but there isn't a single gas mask in the whole game.

    If you do decide to make a Pyro build, there's two main routes you can take. Pyromancy scales with both Intelligence and Faith and a combined total of 60 is the soft cap. Pyromancy as your main attack and a low investment melee weapon to back you up can be an extremely powerful setup as long as you're not fighting something that's wet or already on fire. Alternatively, you can completely ignore Int and Fth in favor of other stats and have pyromancy be perfectly viable. What you lose in Fire damage you gain back in survivability stats and possibly damage on melee weapons.

    Weapons:

    • Fire Axe- Infantry Axe
    • Axtinguisher - Bound Hand Axe
    • Homewrecker - Craftsman's Hammer
    • Dragon's Fury - Spitfire Spear (sort of)

    Spells:

    • Flamethrowers: Fire Whip
    • Flare Guns - Fireball (and variants)
    • Airblast - Force
    • "Hadouken" taunt - Great Combustion
    • "Armageddon" taunt - Firestorm (and variants)
    • Gas Passer - Poison Mist

    Armor:

    • Last Breath - Dark Mask
    • Raven's Visage - Shadow Mask
    • Pyromancer's Mask - Warlock Mask (sort of)
    • Default chest - White or Black Hollow Mage Robe
    • North Polar Fleece - Dragon Acolyte Robe

    Example Builds:

    Black Gulch Giants

    Posted: 08 Feb 2021 02:24 PM PST

    (rant) jesus fucking christ. i need another giant soul for Vendrick because i refuse to go through the cesspool that is Dragon Shrine and fight an equally infuriating boss. so naturally, i level up the black gulch bonfire, and decided its better to fight the 2 giants there again. and then i remembered why i got so angry the last time i did it. they're the exact same thing. they're the exact same enemy. there isnt one thats more docile and gives you room to fight the other. it's the same enemy. and as far as i can tell, you cant lure them out one by one. you just have to fight them both at once. it's like they designed a giant, put him down in the black gulch, and said "but this isnt hard enough :((((((" and just fucking. copy pasted him.

    I’m kinda curious of peoples opinions on sorcery builds ds3 compared to ds2

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 12:37 PM PST

    So in my experience so far I played my ds3 sorcery and could not really get into it due to mobs and bosses just seeming way to un forgiving for that class

    Then I tried it on ds2 and even know it was in some ways similar I still just liked it a lot like it felt more of a do able class I would probably of continued with the ds3 one to give it more of a chance but I feel like I would be comparing the games too much for my comfort if I'm playing sorcery on both so now when I go back to play it I'll use the swordsman

    Advice for no death run?

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 03:39 AM PST

    I'm going to start practicing for the no death run and attempt to get the first illusionary ring.

    I've watched Otzdarva's video from 2015 on it.

    Is there any other advice?

    Any weapons to use other than the rapier?😂

    Cheers

    Can somebody help me with Lud and Zallen? ... Only thing keeping me from beating the game. Nobody's answering me on r/SummonSign ... [PC | SM: 6,8M]

    No Death Run Day 4 - I passed Shrine of Amana! (And build details)

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 01:17 PM PST

    I beat all lords, passed the castle and Shrine of Amana in today's session and I'm not dead yet!

    My build ended up being pretty wacky but it's quite efficient. Right now I'm using:

    • Pursuer's Greatshield - Very comforting to have a shield that very few things can get through or even chip my stamina bar and even has good elemental resist. Just gotta remember to not hold it up against enemies that can shield break.

    • Bastard Sword +10 - One of the things I'm most scared of is getting swarmed by small enemies and the horizontal sweep on this beauty is great with that. Also good in narrow passages, making it very versatile.

    • Longbow +7 - It's more for drawing out enemies than actually dealing damage and it has been helping me a ton but I do wish it did a bit more damage sometimes but I'm not switching to a greatbow because I need the bow to shoot fast.

    • Dark pyromancy flame +2 - This is just to cast toxic mist so stats or upgrading it don't matter much.

    • Jester set - Yep, you heard it right. I used priestess clothes for quite a bit because of good elemental resist and light weight but the jester set does about the same while also having bonus effects. I'm not a fan of physical armor because it doesn't do much and requires more equip load, I'd rather have magic resists and effects.

    • Rings - My rings are nothing special because I didn't go out of my way to get many. Just life ring+1, ring of blades+1, silver serpent and a slot for a quartz ring to match whatever area I'm in.

      Like I said, kinda wacky build but hey, I am probably the most dangerous clown in all of Drangleic right now so that's something. See ya on the next log.

    (New player) Is there any short beginner's tips list like the one I found for DSR?

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 01:15 PM PST

    Can someone explain

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 01:14 PM PST

    Why does this game get so much hate? The level design is neat and the enemies are tough. This is my first time playing through and I've enjoyed everything so far. I want honest opinions so if anyone recommends a way to avoid op items like life gems I'm all ears!

    Taking too much physical damage, even with good armor

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 12:25 PM PST

    Title says it all. I'm really struggling at the later areas of the game. I already have a fully upgraded Alonne armor, but most of the enemies makes mincemeat of me in just a few hits. I'm forced to chug a lot of Estus just to survive. Am I doing something wrong? Should I restart my character from zero?

    Undead Purgatory is the hardest area in the game

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 05:31 AM PST

    I've gotten platinum (all trophies/ achievements) for ds2 before and on my new account I'm doing it again. One thing I remember every time I beat this game is how much I hate this area. Coming from the bridge approach bonfire and walking there is so painful because I have to do it over and over and over and one more time for the one in the back. Genuinely I've died more on my way there and to the boss fight and in the chariot fight than every other part of the game combined.

    The thing I'm trying to ask is there any location like this for anyone else.?

    Dark Souls 2 better than Dark Souls 1 or 3

    Posted: 09 Feb 2021 10:47 AM PST

    In my opinion, it's the best of the games.

    But it isn't a good Dark Souls game.
