I am going to be playing thos for a long time but I did pick up ds1-3 on PS for when I'm done, been wanting to replay them but my computer died.

There’s a giant crater in the center of the map, so probably. Plus the entire map is littered with the identical coliseum looking city ruins…so maybe a space city fell from orbit and hit right there? Idk, I’m not good at figuring this shit out, too many notes and weapon descriptions to keep track of.

You guys are such fan bois. Horizon Zero Dawn was a great game. Hades, is a great game. There arent a ton of them every year but there are at least a few. And the cocksucking in this thread is a little out of hand.

Think about all the weird shit you see in this game, and yet is there anything as weird or out of place as the spirit jellyfish? That is what I want lore about, I am happy making my own story of the rest but when it comes to those jellyfish...

Found I could get away with getting hit once, maybe twice. Rolling into her seems to be best. Especially on the second one you want to roll basically onto her because its a small aoe.
A lot of these pvp showcases are so staged its laughable.

Confused about the order to do stuff. Trying to do the Volcano Manor assassination quests but they want me to go kill someone in the mountain top of the giants. So I need to do go through the capital to get to the mountain top of giants before I can kill Rykard?

Two halves, each getting one half of the Cursemark of death: One for the body where the spirit survives, and the other where the spirit dies but the body survives.
The Great Caravan stuff is just an amazing thread to pull to see how deep the rabbit hole goes.
There is also evidence that there was an Age of Dragons who eventually went to sleep before Marika became Queen, IIRC, the Age of the ErdTree, and potentially something else before the Greater Will and its machinations.

Finished up my archer build run, what a hassle. I'm never doing that again. The concept is fun in some ways, but some of the fights are just ridiculous and the farming is a huge pain in the ass. I think I spent more time trying to get levels and make arrows than doing the content.
The variety of arrow types to drop effects on bosses is pretty cool, but some feel like a necessity (blood type to actual do big damage), and some are just a lot of work to farm (rot arrows are great but the main ingredient doesn't respawn and the drop is super rare off the insect guys).
Its obvious FromSoft didn't want it to be a main spec, but I will say some of the weapons are pretty fun to use. The serpent bow with serpent arrows can drop poison on most things after 2-3 hits, and the pulley crossbow is ridiculously useful for hammering enemies.

I learned not to play a class that relies on farming mats as it’s main source of damage from FF11. Ranger was fun but spending a day to farm so you could play a day was awful.
Doing some kind of dex hybrid archer sounds interesting but I would not want to do it as my main source of attacks. Poisoning enemies with arrows is indeed satisfying, poison worked well for me on several bosses. I ended up using poisoned darts eventually though, just more convenient than a bow since you can keep your main weapon out. You have to throw more to build it up but they’re faster so it’s probably similar in how quickly you can stick it on them.

What's next, you going to learn to unicycle?
Archer build would be fun to explore, but I'd probably get or create a modded talisman that prevents arrow depletion.

Meh unicycling is pretty easy. It took me a few hours to learn when I was 15, can still do it in my 40s. I hadn’t ridden one for 10+ years, got another one last year and hopped on like I’d never stopped, just like riding a bike. Didn’t even need a talisman to help me.What's next, you going to learn to unicycle?

I tried going down the cliff behind Beastial Sanctum a couple times a few days ago because I read that there’s a talisman there. I was very confused that there was a kill box at the edge of the obvious drop down spot. Guess I’ll have to check it out again today!

Having capped my Faith and getting tired of being beat like a red headed stepchild I upped my Endurance so I could wear some real armor...
... and it doesn't seem to do jack?
The difference between being naked and wearing heavy metal seems almost inconsequential. If I get hit I get owned. I almost feel like I would have been better off putting those points into vigor.

Poise is the main benefit of heavier armor and its pretty huge. But it takes major investment to get to the 80-100 poise where you really see a strong impact. Other than that, resists are nice in certain cases, especially the one that resists bleed buildup since every fucking enemy in existance starts piling it on after a certain point in the game.
