Isn't that pretty much how it is already? Except with a slighty lower number? Slightly more complicated networking code of course xD

Any of you pros have any tips for the Ruin Sentinels? I was duel-weilding to no great effect. Then I went in with sword and board to better effect. Any consumables or strategy that you found handy?
I also want to make a comment that this is a great game. The people who say it doesn't hit the highs of the first may have a point, but the summoning is so sick in this game. Drop a sign, get summoned in ten or twenty seconds. Go human, shine all you crazy signatures! I can be choosy whereas before you could wait for a long time. This totally changes the way I play the game.

bitch I'm taking calls.
Use a blunt weapon. Even the simplest mace or club will do way better than slashing or piercing weapons.
Strike damage works wonders for them if you are having issues with the a pair of maces will work wonders.
Little handy bonus for burning something.

After exploring, dying and farming for 5 hours in FotG, I have yet to be invaded =(.
Oh and =^O at climbing a certain ladder only summon a random boss fight! I backed down after a few slashes that hardly did damage to 'em and he disappeared. He comes back, right? Or is he in a new spot everytime?

Twink city in DS2 today, both the few times I was bluesummoned and the BS arena. Bleh. Though I laughed a bit when one of them invaded a game with two white phantoms and one blue. "Must... reload Avelyns... faster..."
It's kind of rare on NG it seems. It didn't happen once in my first 95 hour playthrough, outside of the PvP areas. I was hollow a lot of the time though, so maybe being human boosts it a little bit, as well as being in certain covenants.
You'll run into him soon enough, don't worry.

Looks great together. Alas, no pic!
Edit: Darklurker is finally dead. Now, Ancient Dragon time.
Don't the colors clash?

Hmm. Looking at a pic on my phone, only the Hunter's hat shade of brown seems a bit darker but it still works. Try it and see. Looks stylin' on my female knight.
I just did the xanthous torso seems really out of place as it just clashed with everything.

Tough_Smooth
Nah! Really? I've got the saturation on my monitor way down so maybe I'm not getting the brightness of the Xanthous. Now I'm curious. Won't get a chance to see it again till maybe tonight though. I beat Darklurker after a billion tries and need a little break at least.
lol, very nice.
I didn't quite understand how to get that gear on a 17k SM chara. I mean, you started from a 4kk chara which traded with let's say a 2kk, which traded with a 1kk and so on?
It's mainly becuase the torso and the greaves clash so much:
The rest of the stuff is within a close proximity color wise to work as an outfit. But the torso and the rest of it no way that does.

The fact that the Xanthous headwrap isn't ostentatiously large is obviously the most disappointing part of Dark Souls 2.
How can I be grossly incandescent when I don't have a headwrap taking up 50% of the screen?

Too awesome. I don't like it's movelist much. I'm having a much better (and fun) time with the Drakekeeper Great Hammer.
I know right an there's no parasitical maggot that you can wear either
.I've just settled with the Gyrm great hammer I just really like the move set and it looks rather nice too. Dressed up as Harley Quinn with it.

Yeah. Kind of shocked it took this long to see someone do this. It's a pretty obvious backdoor.
They could fix this by making equipment only tradeable once. That's the obvious solution to me, anyway. That'd be kind of shitty though so hopefully they think of something more clever.
Rouge set you get it in the copse from the hollow rouges.

Yeah, that's what I was illustrating; How simple it seems to be in practice.
Tried some DkS1 for a change, made a Halberdier kind of guy. The movement is a lot faster compared to DkS2, and I almost died a couple of times readjusting to the turning speed while sprinting. Had a few fun low-level invasions in the Burg as well, good times.
Dark PF gains power as you get more hollow. Too bad that Dark PF +10 barely outdamages PF +10 when fully hollow, nevermind the health cost.
Edit: Here's a link to some analysis some guy did on PF vs DPF: Link

Member
Yeah, but why would they put 13 per playthrough if you can't upgrade past 12? What am I supposed to do with the 13th one? Sell it?
Ah! Then I should upgrade DPF as I've always been hollow ever since the start of the game so in my case that makes more sense.

Is anyone still on NG in here? I need 8 Sunlight Medals for the Miracle, and I want to get them by fighting bosses in people's worlds or me summoning them to mine. I don't care which. I just want my remaining medals.
My Soul Memory is 6,231,476. If we both have the name-engraved ring equipped I could be summoned by anyone who's a minimum of 2,000,000. If you'd like to summon me, you'd have to be at least 2,250,000.

Got destroyed again by the Giant Lord.
A hollow soldier decided to follow me to the fight ¯\_(ツ_/¯
Another failed attempt for a no death run, I will call it a night for now...
Ah that sucks, so close too.
That's a pretty awful fight, IMO.

Stupid Darklurker, I really feel like I shouldn't have been hit here.

Been a little over a week for me, I finished Wolfenstein and started Transistor.
Really need to get back to DS2.
First hit I think he tagged you, second one you seemed out of range. But, I feel like because it is a magic thing, some phantom distance is forgiveable.
But still fuk dese hitboxes.
In the memories they are human:A hollow soldier decided to follow me to the fight ¯\_(ツ
I like how the spear has clipped lol.
thank you! one mace of smiting coming right up!
You can sell Sublime Bone Dust and Estus Flask Shards to Gavlan, literally the only use for them I have seen after you maxed out your uses and reinforcement.

You probably haven't. The cap is at 12. I can't use the 13th shard, at least... it says it's been upgraded to the max when I try. I sold it to Gavlan.

Hmm, the last hit is a bit iffy but it's a magic beam so it's hard to say its definite range. Not the worst hitbox I've ever seen though.

I don't see a point in using Bonfire Ascetics yet if their usage carries over into NG+. Guess I might as well save them and jump straight into NG+.
That forward thrust has a really long range since the tip extends far out (and being kind of hard to see), which can make it tricky.

I like the sound of those changes an awful lot. Obviously a part of the dev team are tasked with fixing problems many are vocal about, I can only guess there is a section of the dev team who have been tasked with remedying the larger problems, too. That Twink video is hilarious, 'perverse necessity' is the mother of all invention and all that...
Those of you working your way through no bonfire and no death runs, are you using the glitches some of the speed runners have highlighted? Until I saw the recent ~22min speed run, I had zero interest in attempting a zero death or zero bonfire attempt, but knowing I could attempt it using those methods and it not cost me a huge amount of time is hugely appealing, and rather invigorating.

Where is that video? I thought about doing a character like that and naming him Leroy Jenkins.
The sad thing about this is most folks would accuse the invader of being a hacker, but it's just a broken system.
I don't think I would call "having a large group of people give up valuable and rare items through a giant ladder of multiplayer matches where you can't actively connect with people by choice to get the items to a low level player so that they can invade individual people maybe once or twice" a broken system.
Most systems can be exploited one way or another. The people in the video talk about it as if "We just BROKE THE PVP'S" when in reality, next to nobody is going to realistically go through the effort of doing this.

You are right that there are few with the determination to pull something like this off, but all it takes is one to create a mega-mule that can then spread like wildfire.

Bonfire ascetic Giant Lord and kill him.
