Makes sense. Probably why so many have **** in their names. They don't bother censoring your own stuff, just everyone else.

The question was "What does the AR acronym represent in your posts?" Attack Rating?
I'm guessing here as I don't know, either.

Both times i've gone back to talk to the covenant leader, I've been invaded. Shit happens quick. It's really fun if you want to switch up the gameplay for a bit because it happens to fast.
If your running around with a mastodon I think you'd have the stamina being a strength build and all.
I think so it's the number on the stat thingy.
yes, but he's optional.
yup, i was way over the required stats but just swinging it takes off a ton of stamina. i'd rather use the Bastard for more hits.

Cosplaying will be taken to a new level on PC.
Why is Magic so weak ??? I know that my Faith is a little bit higher (50 vs 40), I'm near the undead crypt now and even something like Soul Vortex does so little damage that instead of running my strongest magic attack, i just run Lightning Spear, AND great lightning spear, along with Emit Force/Sunlight Blade, I wanted to be a dual caster and just dont see the magic paying off.

Just realised something scandalous, unless I missed them those cool looking porcelain mask guys from the first trailer aren't in the game #THEYLIED #MASKGATE etc.
Just finished the game, I know it would sort of go against the grain for the series but maybe the next one could have a decent ending

So Nashandra was some Dark obsessed witch that corrupted the king and he stole the "prize" (Do you find out what that is?) from the giants who fucked up the kingdom which then became/was becoming corrupt/warped because the king is the land etc. ? I liked the throwbacks to the cyclical nature of the whole first flame thing, but to be honest I found it ultimately boring in DS and again here. The game ran really nicely and the largely flawless multiplayer really enhanced the experience.Overall I probably enjoyed it more than Dark Souls but less than Demon Souls, which I think is still the gold standard in Souls games. Though I think in terms of mechanics Dark Souls 2 was excellent, more of everything basically and most of the new spells felt fairly distinct, especially the entirely new line of hexes. Dual wielding is cool and I like the way that durability and the design of some of the encounters/bosses encourage you to change up your weapons and approach.

Got changed to the manikin mask instead. Looks terrible, should have stayed with the original.

I figured they were in Earthen Peak.

Aww man, I wanted to work on my Sunbro rank before NG+ but I inflated my Soul Memory a lot, no one is summoning me
How high is it? I imagine you should be able to get some for the final boss.

Damn shame. My fav strength weapon of DaS. I've stuck to dex this time. What makes the mastadon so bad?

You can always use some simpletons spice to lower the req.
Sure it's fun to throw lightning I'd save your spices though for maybe the great spear or the sunlight one. If you like it of course.
For its weight (16.0) its damage isn't as high as it should be, and it is a bit stumpy, not a whole lot of reach. It's got a cool moveset, and looks good. But, I prefer either Claymore or Bastard Sword, both are half its weight and deal only a little less damage.
Ah, okay maybe I will try there. Looks like I'm at 3 million.

Jesus Christ lol man what's your level before finishing your first run? You must be way overpowered at this point. I thought I was having an easy time haha

That is pretty high for NG, most folks at your memory level will be in NG+ by now so you won't see a lot of multiplayer action until you move one.

I'm at 120 something and about to go to the area for the fourth boss fight. I'd be surprised if I go too far away from 150 by the time I finish first run. I couldn't even do co-op boss runs to get souls anymore since nobody summons me.

Don't use any Chunks and count those. If you get close to 99, put some in your Item Box.

The most obvious hint: Put as much as you can into faith. Get electricity damage weapons asap as those scale the best with faith. Besides that just find weapons/armor that suit your playstyle, but make sure to carry a chime and get the different variations of the lightning spears asap.
