It's the same. I don't know what causes two people to have it say different things. I did the same exact thing on two characters one has "here" one has "hey!"

It's the same thing. It just depends on your characters voice.

If someone else has your "voice" (young, mature, old), your character will use another voice.

Oh shit Offensive miracle FP usage has been lowered!

 

[Laughing Banana]

I'll admit that when I'm in a losing streak, I'll often equip an Estoc for a self-esteem boost.

There's nothing more annoying than to see someone who is on the losing side of the fight in PVP suddenly switch to Estoc for R1 spam.

I am continuing along my random character challenge but I'm starting to become frustrated because the dice roller kept telling me to level Int, at this point the character is no longer random because it randomly min-maxed Intelligence and ended up being a character that some people would make normally.

You know, I'm curious. Has anyone tried this yet? You could literally wait and try to find out. Maybe I will this playthrough. I doubt it though.

Maybe should add some new rules. Like can't level up a stat you previously leveled up, so reroll.

Yeah. I ended up just upgrading my sword instead of using spells on that mofo. If we could target its nutsack like we could target different parts of the boss in DaS 2 it would be better. That's another thing DaS 2 did well, multi-target areas for huge bosses.

Which gestures allow you to say things like "hello" when you get summoned?

"Hello" carving, traded from crow with an Alluring Skull. Throwback to Dark Souls 1 and 2, Gough's carvings.

I thought about that, but that wouldn't kill the bad luck entirely since it could still alternate between stats.I might make a "bad luck" clause where if the dice roller is giving too many repeats then I'll reroll but I have to accept the new roll even if it's another repeat.

roll a D20. 1-2 is Vig 3-4 is ATT, etc. 19 and 20 can be re-rolls or like stat of your choosing, or whatever. If you're rolling a digital D10 maybe use a real D10 instead

lol no I'm the headpiece on the floor.

 

[Morrigan Stark]

What is with hosts that just run and run and run and run when I invade them. Especially after I kill their phantoms. Like ok I get it you're kinda panicking but just... fucking fight lol. There are no enemies around and you just run ceaselessly, and eventually still get killed because my running attacks clip you and chip away at you, and you chug Estus and then run some more but every time my running r1 catches you and keeps chipping away at your health, until you are out of Estus, and then eventually my last running r1 kills you. Whereas if you had stood your ground and battled me, you might have had a chance, especially since you probably have more Estus to start with than I do. So many bleedin' cowards, I tell ya!

...I guess my invader will have great cardio now, at least... xD

I'm happy with those changes, pyro was way too good and sorcery was kinda shit. Hopefully we'll see more mages out there once the patch rolls out.

Of course they had to increase FP cost Chaos Fireball. Fucking FROM what's up with them and being this game?

A lot of these FP cost are still too high, but w/e, I know FROM just want you to use melee.

Hasn't the Maintenance just started? On PC that is.

Invading is really weird on PC. I watched a Twitch live stream yesterday from someone on PS4 with SL65 invading in Irithyll Dungeon. He was invading non stop, as soon as he activated the Orb. Since my character is SL62 I thought I should do the same on PC for a bit, it took forever to get invasions. Always "Searching...". Is the player base that low on PC already? What is going on?

Really? For me it's been quite alright invading. I mean, out of every 5 invasions, one would take forever. I'm SL85 though.
Player base has dropped quite a bit recently though, it's at around 30,000 daily CCU right now according to Steamspy.

Where do you invade at that level (and what weapon level)? I have a SL85 too and it's slow there too (Archives, Dragon Baracks). I made this SL62 so I could invade in lower zones (Dungeons, Anor Londor)

I start the duel with it and I use the entire moveset, R2s, charged R2s and L2s. Two poke maximum

Just when i started a fresh sorcerer character we get the new FP costs.Nice

 

[Laughing Banana]

Hahaha no worries man. I am just unfortunate enough that most, if not *all*, Estoc users I have fought against in PvPs are just using the R1 spam. It's to the point that whenever I see someone whipping out an Estoc I immediately lose all the will to fight.

Especially if they pulled it out in the middle of a losing fight, which happened more often that I'd like, *sigh*

I blame FROM the most actually, for making rapier's R1s like the Estoc so bloody ridiculous.

I've been planning a max health/endurance character, with brigand daggers, buffed with bleeding.

Its a luck/bleed build with the added bonus of going through the dancer skip early to get tearstone ring. It was difficult to get Anri's sword without pissing off Yuria, so I basically had to speed run from the halfway bonfire where Anri was without touching a bonfire, then talk to Orbeck, then do all the sigils (jsut did them all at once by jumping off the cliff next to firelink) then finally Yoel died I talked to Yuria then killed Orbeck then got MOrion. After all that Anri was still waiting for me at the halfway bonfire, killed her henchman first, then she was so depressed she went down easy. Its a lot of work but obviously an OP build.

Yeah I took a lot of heath up front to get through the first part of the game, but respecced as soon as I got the hyper mode set up...I run all bosses at very low health regardless so excess health was superflous. You will like the bleed though, grab some kurkis and infuse a bleed weapon with more bleed and the meter of your enemy will fill up so fast they wont know what to do with you.

He might go back for it, but he missed the pyromancy tome which is on the Fair lady corpse, I was hoping he would go back for it as he did see it, since it would surely scratch his itch for more lore.
