Dark Souls II

I'm just one trophy away from platting it, but I'm too lazy to get all the titinate to make the boss weapons :P

 

I got tons of souls by invading as darkwraith. Never farmed any titanites, always bought them except for titanite chucks. But for boss weapons we don't need chucks. For crystal, lightning etc max weapons you can create a weapon at blacksmith, close game and reopen. That way you won't lose slab and chucks used after +10.

 

Even though the game has low rez textures the design more than makes up for it. In the end it looks gorgeous.

As usual another wave omg "dis game is hard" ..... Its not . Its not even like older games where you actually need good reflexes and memorize boss patterns and sh*t to beat the game.

 

Just be patient and be wary of your surroundings , the game is slow and patient. You cant go YOLO and kill enemies 5v1. Dont be this guy.

Casul do you even praise the sun? :P

 

Answer all these questions. I'll try to help.

 

What build are you going for- Strength or Dex? Both? Started as Warrior

Using any magic- Pyro, Miracles, Hexes, Sorcery? nope

Do you have any armor with poise? nope

Can you fast, mid or heavy roll? nope

Are you rolling or blocking attacks? Yes

Does your shield have 100% physical block? Not sure. If I block, i dont get hit.

Have you tried to parry or backstab enemies? Yes

Have you equipped/found any rings? Yes

Are you choosing armor/weapons/consumables over leveling up? Nope

What stats have you leveled up? STR, VIT, DXT. Whatever ups my strength+stamina+HP

Are you retrieving your bloodstain after your death? Yes

 

That should do it for now.

 

 

 

I think the major issue was that I joined the Covenent. :doh: Game is not that hard gameplay wise. It's the mechanics like you lose the souls and restart at bonfire that makes it feel it is difficult. And the boss battles.

Welcome to Dark Souls. This is your first game that's why you are finding it very difficult. Keep playing, you'll get better. Everyone finds it extremely difficult and frustrating the first time. Dark Souls brings out the worst in you, as a gamer.

 

Also, don't forget to summon people (co-op) and check bloodstains (it tells you how other players died in that area) This game has the best online features. I hope they have explained how co-op and pvp works for new players.

1st PART of the GAME is pretty BAD resolution wise....BUT the second half exceeds all expectations...its the best looking souls game by far....Albiet souls fan never want 1080P textures .....what we want is their in this game.....Thumbs up !!

 

Also in Second half bosses are EXTREMELY difficult from what i have heard......Only hardcore gamers can BEAT this game (Without summoning players for help) ......NO way a CoD/GTA fanboy would reach even close to its ending :P LOVING IT !! :)

 

I am starting my first playthrough on 14th with COVENANT OF CHAMPIONS.....need to know if i can beat it ...also their are exclusive rewards in this covenant if someone beat a boss with such HIGH difficulty....... :)

Not every COD player is derp. There are some real hardcore players too.

Dark Souls is less hard, more tactical if you ask me. All you need is patience and free mind. If you're gonna just jump in thinking you'll kill, then you'll keep dying.

Looks like they are not going to add VAC this time on PC (again). It'll be filled with cheats and trainers again. :doh:

(one reason not to play online =/)

No, I need to collect greatswords, katanas and shields and +10 them to make then into boss weapons. But I'm just too lazy.

I'm having too much fun with my strength playthrough, Man Serpant Greatsword is so OP.

 

 

 

And Ambar, start using magic, it's always helpful for newcomers. And do you block enemy attacks or roll around them?

 

 

And the first rule is to get some Poise. However small, you CANNOT be without poise, especially with strength weapons.

The rule of thumb is to get enough poise but not to let the armor weight compromise your rolling speed.
