Darklurker on NG+ piece of piss with a faith build, he didn't even split in two, took about 6 or 7 great lightning spears with 50 faith.

Me too - I am all about the fashion souls. Also find the guys in all Havel to be real easy to exterminate.

This time around fashion souls is all over the place, and I'm liking it
Love the move set. Flows for me. I tried the ultra Greatswords with the same movesets but they're way slower and drain stamina faster so I end up going back to my Bastard.
I use one-handed so the strong is vertical slice followed by horizontal slash. Light is just horizontal slashes.
I think maybe the guy you fought had a different weapon. Maybe a Claymore cuz that has a thrust attack. I don't really care for the thrust. I was using that two-handed with the Zweihander.

What the actual fuck?! One shot by
WOTG
Most of the ultra greatsword are leaving a lot to be desired really. I'm using a old knight great sword on my co-op character it's a pretty good great sword. And it's got decent scaling for what you can get very easily early on.
The key to the embedded was fun to muck around with till I had to thrust it into a bossom.
Is the havel's set still super weak to poison? In DS1 you can poison/toxic a haveldude as easily as if they weren't wearing anything.
I know the feel. I tried toxic mist/ other pyros as well several times. She has like 12k fucking hp.
I wasn't coming close until I used profound still to block her from casting at all. Then she constantly runs up to you and will whack you with her chime, which does way more damage than it should. And you have to watch out because the very nanosecond she gets the ability to cast back, WOTG is coming out.
I heard she's tough on NG. she's probably a monster in NG+ haha
Speaking of the Embedded. I'm gonna keep the Embedded Key in NG+. It's a freakin' KEYBLADE LOL

I had one just slowly circle me with his greatshield up. I just pounded his shield with GRS until he died.
If you have the stats for a large club, you can just crush her over and over until she dies.
Crush your enemies, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of their women all in one move.
It's nice that armor choices mean so little this time around.
No idea lol. Don't use those tactics -- I'll try toxic though.
Ah fuck. That's such bullshit. One of the coolest looking weapons and they make it a KEY item.
It's probably a Flamberge. That great sword doesn't consume a lot of stamina and has the moveset you described. It also has the bleed effect.
The only downside is that you can't buff it.

a lot of my threads involve me fucking up somehow. Perhaps I'm a moron?
What are some of the better light armours?
I got a sweet str/dex no shield build and I love being super fast.
I'm currently rocking Dark Armour +5 but surely there's better stuff out there.

man, whomever said lost Sinner was easy now on NG+ is seriously a jerk. The entire level is fucking brutal. those scorpions take forever to kill, and the mummys are OP and stun lock me. it doesn't help that I constantly get invaded here and invaders are always super OP.
Lucatiiel is useless, and the Pryos and Sinner destroy me.
Goddamnit, this is really fucking annoying. Why did they have to make 4 archers at the bonfire? I lost 500k souls because those archers.

Alva set is quite beloved. Altho I don't care for it.
fuck that bonfire. If you're still running hexes, I beat LS NG+ pre patch/ lights off with GRS and just completely avoided the pyromancers. They weren't worth engaging.
How did you lose 500K so close to the bonfire? Also, try equipping the ring of life protection next time your souls are in a dicey situation.
There's only 3 archers there, iirc. But yea, it's an asshole bonfire lol

i cant even set foot in the tower without being invaded.
I used Elite Knight for a long time, then Faraam until the end. Both are light enough for me and are pretty well rounded.
Is there a particular reason why it can't be buffed? I'll have to watch out for that weapon.

I've always been partial to the Black Leather armor set, not so much for its stats, but because it looks sleek as hell on my female knight. Used it a lot in Dark Souls as well. It will definitely keep you light at least...
you can buy the Flamberge from a merchant. You can also get a Varagian Flamberge as a drop at NMW. Dunno if the movesets are the same.
Yeah but 2 of those cost double to repair, which is too much death tax imho.
I had to do Wharf in NG+ for Lucatiel's quest and got regular four rings in one run. P good.

Euhmm.. Are the servers down? Online doesnt work for me (belgium)
Edit: works now sry
Edit: works now sry
You can buy ten of them in Dark Souls I and find several more in the world. The only difference is they can be repaired now, but if you stock up on ROS rings in DS and only use them after you die, it's pretty much the same thing.

Those exploding mummies are seriously fucking over powered.
The Profound Still hex is so good against her. She doesn't even have a real weapon to use once she's silenced, she just attacks with her chime.
Man, mummies are so easy to dodge. Just dodge as they just hit the floor, the explosion hitbox is a tad delayed.

The exploding mummies and man scorpions are so fucking overpowered. I die in a single hit and they have such insane HP. it's seriously insane, how the fuck am I supposed to get through this area?
Easier to lure the big guys into the elevator room so it's easier to dodge.

The range is insane. I can't dodge them, like ever. THey see me, and rush towards me and explode dealing 90% of my HP in damage, and then as soon as I get up they are already about to attack again, so I can't dodge or heal. Kinda SOL. This entire area is hard.
Are you using a broken sword hilt? You can one shot these guys with a short bow and iron arrow.

Are there going to be any good deals for Dark Souls 2 for PC before it releases? Trying to find a deal for a friend.

on NG+ are you joking? I do 600 with Dark Orb, it takes down a tenth of their HP. A TENTH, I have to use like 10 orbs if I hit.
Welp, i think that the
battle is easier without summoning (at least for me). If you are the only one fighting him is much easier to predict his next movement, on the other hand if he is attacking multiple players you can't know which zone is targeting with his AoE attacks.
Ancient Dragon
Yeah I loved the Mastodon Halberd and Sword. Gotta watch out for that spin attack though, it eats away at the Durability so quick.
The worst is at Dragon Aerie. Sometimes I miss and then it's an instant broken ring.
What game are you playing lol? Those mummies have like 300 health. Everything one-shots them mostly, especially after the patch.
