Ugh just wanted 40 min trying to break Spiner spear.
What's the most efficient way again? Attacking walls is mind numbing.

Promise I won't PvP with it...

I used the first bonfire in Forest of Fallen Giants.

Just gather all the enemies to one area and kill them, then attack their dead corpses for about a minute or two.

Also, durability degrades faster at 60fps, so it's worth playing at 60fps if you can.

 

[Gareth Bale]

That boss whip that you can infuse with poison is so fucking cheap

Be in the rat covenant and smack around the mastodon in the room you found it in. Should take you a couple minutes to break in at most.

Why do you want to break it?

Thanks dude

Thanks dude

It has a giant stone on it. Breaking it breaks the stone and makes it a really effective, versatile, and useful/fast weapon.

 

[Haly]

Can't you just walk around in the acid pools in shaded woods?

That's ridiculous and amazing. Damn this series

 

[Cloudius12]

iirc acid pools doesn't affect weapons.

 

[Rickenslacker]

Those don't affect weapons from what I could tell.

 

[Haly]

Ah, I didn't know that.

 

[John Harker]

I actually did try that haha.... Confirmed, does not affect weapons!

Holy crap. You mean to tell me these things don't take damage or attack back if I'm In the Rat Cov? I'm doing your suggestion Now and wailing on the mastodon and he don't even feel it and it'd crushing the damage on the spear. Thanks man

Can it be repaired after breaking? Or would that put the Stone back on it.

 

[Coldsun]

Can't be repaired nor does it need to be. Its indestructible .

 

[Rickenslacker]

Nope, it's unique in this regard. Once it breaks it becomes an infinite durability weapon, no broken icon even.

[Crimsonclaw111]

Is there a way to check how many kills into a covenant you are? I picked the Bellbros and made it to rank 2 ages ago.

 

[54-46!]

I went ahead and bought a DualShock 4 yesterday, can't seem to get used to the positioning of Select and Start, keep hitting the touch pad - not something you want to mess up when you try to switch equipment in the middle of a fight.

Easiest way to break it 3 min :

Spoiler

Forest of Giants, from the second bonfire run down through the wall near the cave and round up all the zombies in one spot. Kill them so they all pile up in one spot. Hit the pile with r1, durability will go down wicked fast!

 

[Taruranto]

A lot of weird invasions today...

I don't remember, can I beat the bell tower boss and still get invaded by bellbros?

 

[Cannon Goose]

Hey guys, guess what I did today.

Whoa, I never realised how crazy that sword looked. It looks like a statue with a handle on it!

 

[NBtoaster]

Godamn the last few areas of the game look almost next gen.

 

[Orthogonal]

Whoa, I never realised how crazy that sword looked. It looks like a statue with a handle on it!

That's because it is a statue with a handle on it.

 

[RVinP]

So, I killed Lucatiel (near the Bonfire below the Heide's Tower of Flame).

Wanted to hit with intent, then unintentionally followed up to a 1 vs 1 duel and killing Lucatiel.

Would there be any repercussions?
(try to avoid excessive spoilers please)

Aside from not getting to see her questline for the playthrough and adding to your sin level? Not really.

[Vitor711]

Ugh, still hate the

Spoiler

Demon of Song

fight.

Can't dodge out of his slam move effectively, still seem to get hit. And I guess I should just be moving backwards instead of dodging to the side?

Nearly all bosses = dodge right. Side-stepping and rolling barely seems to work here. Also, my upgraded club keeps bouncing off his shell when it really shouldn't. Switched to my +10 broadsword and am dealing a lot more damage just because it never gets blocked.

 

[Brerlappin]

Whats the deal with getting cursed in this game? So far it seems to do approximately jack shit. Compared to DS1, anyway.

He's pretty damn easy, no rolling just sprinting.
Run up, he attacks, run away, attack ends, you attack.

For the drop, sprint in circles, roll when he drops.
Only the "face" can be attacked as far as i know.

 

[Haunted]

Also, durability degrades faster at 60fps, so it's worth playing at 60fps if you can.

[zkylon]

are whips the go-to weapons for dex chars?

upgraded my rapier to +10 and it has about the same base damage as the old whip :I

I found that whips break so easily even with a bracing knuckle ring that they're not really viable.

Grab a Black Knight Halberd and feel like death itself.

Guess I was playing it wrong then. At least the run up to the boss wasn't as much as an issue as I feared it might be. Barring that ridiculous time-waste of an enemy placement by the bonfire, you can just trek on through which was nice.

He's the one boss I never got the hang of. Can't say I'm tempted to revive him and try again.

 

[Mistel]

getting a bit bored of my mastodoon halberd - any good other str weapons for NG+?

Mastodon greatsword, pursuer greatsword, kings ultra greatsword, and red iron twin blade to name a few.

 

[zkylon]

yeah it just broke in the middle of a boss fight

that thing's useless

wait about them darth maul twinblades? i saw a guy run those, cast one of them magic sword spells and like one shot a boss

Grab a Black Knight Halberd and feel like death itself.

i'm trying that right now while helping people do boss runs in drangleic castle

scales pretty well with my dex/fth build

 

[Mistel]

They're a good weapon with their moveset and strength scaling nice damage too. As long as you don't mind it needing twinkling.

 

[OminoMichelin]

are there poison bows in the game? Or are poison arrows the only option?

You can infuse a bow with poison if you would like.

 

[OminoMichelin]

I tried with all the bows, it wouldnt let me do that.

 

[Jintor]

You can infuse a bow with poison if you would like.

Actually I don't think you can - option was greyed out for me when I tried. You're going to have to wheel and/or deal.

Yeah I guess they that for balance,it would be too easy to just stack up 999 arrows AND have poison effect on them all

 

[Red Liquorice]

Can't infuse a bow with bleed or poison.

how does the blue knights covenant work?

i just completed the sunbro covenant so i'm trying bluebros now, fighting the good fight for the noobs

hmm yeah that's kind of lame since twink titanite is pretty rare right now
