By Yurtlicious Go To PostONLY read if you're done with it! please tell me you found the gimmick sword? Because that would've been a proper nightmare without it lol. Fav cutscene and VA so far. CHILLS
I wasn't using it, at first. I was to busy being wowed by the area and boss design that I didn't check it out, when I picked it up. lmfao. Swapped to it today, and killed him tho. I died so much, yesterday, that I could kill the first phase, without getting hit (well, minus the ground thing). Second form is just ridiculous.
brehs
what does this red aura mean? Not pictured but I have two red squares under my healthbar as well

I accidentally looted it ngl. And I couldn't figure out the ground thing either so I just absorbed the damage with the Opaline Bubbletear
the build up for each demigod has been incredible, each area feels like its own arc.
The underground is like a whole other map wtf
The music during that ancestral spirit fight *chefs kiss*

By Elliott Go To PostThe underground is like a whole other map wtfyeah I just got to that point too and felt like I had no clue just how big this game is
Ya'll have no idea. I am continuously surprised at how large the map is, and how much of it is optional.
By EldritchTrapStar Go To PostYa'll have no idea. I am continuously surprised at how large the map is, and how much of it is optional.I know they are doing great things with their open-world, but most content in open-world games are optional 😂
By blackace Go To PostI know they are doing great things with their open-world, but most content in open-world games are optional 😂one of the dungeons had an extremely well hidden dungeon inside of it (like genuinely 99% of sane players won't even think of looking HERE and doing THAT), and it was even longer and larger than the main one lmao almost to the point of parody. And I'm talking a dungeon with a completely different theme, mobs and bosses lol..
it kinda paints it in a different light too
By EldritchTrapStar Go To PostYa'll have no idea. I am continuously surprised at how large the map is, and how much of it is optional.Reminds me of bloodborne. like 20 bosses and areas are optional but that was way more vague than ER so far. I would have missed what feels like the majority of the content if I wasn't warned.

-Finally met the pot guy
-The Clicker swamp is hideous
-Marge rekt ezpz
-Cleared Stormfront Castle. Really enjoyed the design and enemies present. Visually it's the first thing that I've liked. The verticality of it was the most impressive part and I was surprised by the size of the whole area. Feels like I did a good job exploring but who knows what I missed.
-I set Rodericka and Hewgy up. I ship it 😘
-Gave Deathroot to the guy with the Toguro Bros armor.
-I think I mt some other NPCs but I've already forgotten them lmao
-Where the fuck is all the armor? I've come across like two other ones in 15 hours.
-I beat Godrick on my second try and I wish I didn't. I normally don't use summons, but it felt..... thematically correct to summon Nepheli? Considering how you meet her, I thought that summoning herwas important but shejust disappeared right after. If this doesn't start a questline, I'm not using a summon again. Mid fight cutscene was hype tho. Not as hype as Ludwig but hype.
location spoilers?
Wandered around someplace that's started with "Dragon" and saw a massive fuckoff dragon, killed a 1:1 SoTC colossus, entered a building and abat one-shot me so I left lol.
that one Erdtree was so annoying with his poison. i just shithoused him with my bow. sorry not sorry.

ooh tell me
By Patriotism Go To Postooh tell meYou suuuure? I'll give you an obscure tip but not the exact location or area I'll leave that to you try to do the dung eater quest. You either have it or will get it eventually
By Lego Go To PostI beat Godrick last night, don’t know what happened but one run I just steamrolled him.You happened Lego, you happened.
By blackace Go To PostOk getting ready to make my character.
What did people end up rolling with?
Astrologer, but getting a bit bored with the magic ngl.
For magic you need to be constantly on the look out for new spells and npcs, some are gated behind quests, some heinous acts, and then decide which school of magic you like most. It's actually a lot of work lol, and people who think its easy here are in for a rude awakening later. You'll face bosses and mobs designed to fuck YOU.
But with melee you just need a weapon you trust. And something fast to switch to when needed (RATS)
Currently I'm running a scarlet rot dots build. I'm leukemia

I went magic because it’s traditionally easy in these games, and it’s not a play style I usually go for.
It ain’t been that easy.
i have no clue what to level and just put points in vigor, endurance, strength and dexterity and sometimes arcane lol.

I found a sorcery behind a boss, and all her fucking spells are worse than what I got already. Thinking about going back to my vagabond save, it really annoyed me that much.
An item
You're fine lol go for a classy 40 STR/40 Dex build if you're confused. Those points in Arcane will open up some cool STR/DEX/Arc weapons too

yeah but is the item hard to get, limited or expensive?
if it's no big deal i might just fuck around and find out.

One merchant sells one for 3000 I think but don't worry you'll absolutely find at least a couple
By DiPro Go To Posthighly recommend wretch.Only way to play

Feels like you can't just dump points into a single magic stat. Gotta spread across INT/FAI and even ARC if you want to use a mix of stuff. Gonna guess the usual 120 level endgame PVP/COOP limit is going to be raised.
By Patriotism Go To Postlmao so far all i've done is cleared out Godrik,I was just thinking that!!!

I think I THINK we are supposed to level two** damage stats now.
The other tell is that I'm close to 120, not even close to end game and my damage isn't exactly OP. Even regular mobs take 3 shots.
Some decent weapons require 20s in three stats. I might add Arcane to the mix now
Edit: one mini boss literally handed me 200k runes lol
The claymore has good length (and LT bloody slash is gr8) but is too slow. Where is my threaded cane m8s
Decided to explore the upper left side of the map, discovered Caria Manor and a brand new disgusting enemy lol wtf FROM
Im running with a fancy greatsword for now until i find a good int/dex weapon. Have to use a talisman that boosts strength so i can actually wield it but its better than the broadsword at least.
Kinda jealous of incantations ngl. Some of the ones I've found look sick.

Fucking HELL that lion inside the front gate of Stormveil. Took me 15 minutes to kill him. Didn’t die once though. Was super on the defensive - knew I had 6000 souls waiting for me to collect
By allah i will get through this castle

Properly cheesed this boi lmao. Was late and I just could not be fucked once I saw how little damage my Halberd was doing so I took him to a door he refused to go through and Kukri'd the SHIT out of him. 15 throws, ezpz.
Actually had my first rage quit last night though. Got splatted by some blue giant dude and then a named NPC where my attacks did like 2% of their HP but one of their spells landed and took my entire stamina bar and stunned me... and that was just a regular old spell. So 2 quick deaths I wasn't expecting was enough for my first "FUCK THIS GAME BREHS"
By s y Go To PostI thought n8 was talking about margit but now I'm confused. Did I miss fighting an actual lionYes
