Wow you're right....So for the King's Field oldschoolers like myself out there, I just thought about the fact that the "Black Dragon" boss is very likely Guyra. They already have Seath, the Moonlight Sword and reference Lyn with Siegmeyer's nickname for his daughter Sieglinde.
I love you guys, From Soft.
I hate Titanite Demons. I grinded the spawning one later in the game and still got killed every now and then. There's one particular area with them that is just nightmare inducing.This dude is like having a boxing match with someone 3 feet taller than you are.
Dat reach. Destroyed him and got sweet crafting goods though.
Thanks for the input!I hate Titanite Demons. I grinded the spawning one later in the game and still got killed every now and then. There's one particular area with them that is just nightmare inducing.
The great thing about being in a boxing match with someone who's taller than you is that getting inside their reach usually means you can drop the hammer on them while they try to restore safe striking distance!
I find that if you get behind/between his non-staff (left) arm and his tail, you can safely lay a beatdown on him repeatedly, without getting hurt by any of his attacks. You just have to quickly close the gap, and return to that sweetspot, when he jumps backwards.
They don't, but most enemies except maybe regular hollow soldiers can be a threath all the way through the game if you aren't prepared
You're right! I find that most of the time it's the unfamiliarity with attack patterns that can kill you. I generally accept the fact that any unfamiliar enemy might be able to kill me in the first encounter if I don't take extra care to learn their patterns and how to bait them into either leaving their defense down or isolating their slowest attack that's able to be parried into a riposte.
Those large skeletons are hard to deal with mostly because there's no mobility afforded by the gravestones that crowd that area.
Definitely try to go under 50%. There are so small amount of events where a faster movement speed would be inferior to any amount of psychical defense / poise / etc. Rolling is pretty much always better choice than tanking damage from big enemies.
Great advice, thank you! I'll work on crafting my leather armour set to having base physical defense that's higher than the chain and plate stuff I have currently.
He is! NOt sure how you could have "sensed it" but when he dances with that trident it helps surounding enemies attack power iirc. You can get that shit later in Dukes archives and bring it to co-op fights....have tried it during a queelag co-op but couldn't be sure it worked. For the one in the PArish, just draw the mob down the stairs one at a time.
yeah most times its better to wear nothing than tank out with heavy armour. If you just consider a certain set unwearable until you can stay under 50% you will be better off. You can wear the wolf ring if you want a modest but noticeable increase in poise....you find it in the gardedn after that prowling demon. There is a free black leather set just before capra downstairs, and another free leather set in the garden so you can mix and match pieces to find the lightest combo; but by the time you ring the second bell there will be a tonne of light armour sets to choose from, most of which help with getting cursed or poisoned, and you will be constantly switching sets around as a result.
