Yeah, mind isn't too important for Moonveil imo. If you are a pure caster you'd probably want quite a bit more.

I still think Tiche is better than Mimic for most things. If it's human size, Tiche can and will knock it on its ass repeatedly. And she will use Blade of Death which reduces a boss' max hp and is a massive DoT rolled into one. And the HP reduction stacks (with diminishing returns of course, but it doesn't matter much because the DoT is so strong). She dances all over the place, which greatly reduces damage taken too. Maybe Mimic is better for some builds, but I don't even think it's particularly close when you compare Black Knife to Moonveil.

As for talismans, the single biggest fuck up I made with this build is not doing that asshole Seluvis' quest properly. Not having the magic scorpion charm really sucks. The one that reduces weapon skill FP cost is great too. For last slot, use whatever. I like the heal on kill one for trash, and a defensive one for bosses. Edit: Forgot about Shard of Alexander. You always want to use that once you finally get it, so the optional 4th slot goes away super late in the game if you don't fuck up the Seluvis quest like I did.

After playing Elden Ring I don't think I could ever go back to a Ubisoft style "let me show you where everything is" type of open world game.
Playing horizon 2 right now it was rough at first but story is interesting enough.

Man, been playing without looking up anything.. and notoriously bad at reading shit. I'm 108hr in at lv106. I just figured out how to get Great Runes, popped Margot in a 1shot after semi-struggling prior to grabbing.. shit was like a x2.

Just got the Stars of Ruin spell. Lol at anyone who thinks Comet Azur is OP

Lusat was clearly the Chad and Azur was his little bitch
What items/buffs are you using because it does shit damage for me, at least on bosses like melania.

At level 130 and about 130 hours in doing all of the Mountaintops of the Giants.... and I am still having to go back and do dungeons I missed earlier in the game. How.... how did they cram so much into this game?

So does the Tree Sentinel dude before the Beast Clergyman in the Crumbling Azur respawn if you kill him? Tired of running past that knob.

Also must have missed Iron Fist Alexander. (unless its after this?)

No he stays dead, drops a nice armor set as well

The vertical geometry in this game is actually staggering.

Lusats set and staff. 80 int. Some bosses have higher resists against certain magic types and glintstone apparently has two different types. Regular, where the spells look teal, and then "night" or some shit, where the spells look dark blue.

Doing the Nokrom eternal city for the Ranni quest and think I'm almost done. Than I find an entrance to a whole nother part of Sofria well. Finish that up, am I done yet? Nope, here's an elevator to the other eternal city. I'm starting to feel like Xzibit made this part of the game. "Yo dawg, I heard you like to underground, so we put an underground in your underground so you can underground while you underground.

I think this quest line is just bugged. I killed omenkiller after exhausting her dialogue at roundtable hold but she ain't under the bridge nor down the stairs at roundtable

Seluvis was just randomly dead when I went back to work on his quest. The seemingly random failure mechanisms for quests I have always hated in From games.

It isn't random.
You either give the lady the potion as he asks or you give it to the all knowing and he kills Seluvis.
He stays a merchant either way.

You get below that with the jump puzzle? That whole area is insane.
I didn't do a jumping puzzle there, but I feel like I saw one when I was adventuring. By the time I finished the area I was too exhausted of that shithole to go find the jumping puzzle agian.
