Souls of the Darkest Calibre

Post by Azmodan412 » 30 Nov 2015, 23:07

I do not mean to be obsessing over a relatively oldish-new game, but I have to put it here. Dark. Souls. Kicks XENO ASS! If you see me in game as an invader (Forum name and BYOND name is same as my steam name), better run because I am coming at you with stylish ninja flips and fiery swords of doom. *RAWR!*. But seriously, if you get the game, do NOT forsake shields, they are your saving fucking grace. If you have the game, reply with your favored playstyles. Mine is either the sword n board paladin of the Path of the Dragon (Hardest covenant to get to), or Forest Invader glass cannon with Crystal sorceries.

Edit 1: Sentences (2) added.

Edit 2: I need to go to rehab. I am pushing on 600 hours of Dark Souls.

It sounds like you don't know that the Legend Never Dies.

On a serious note, shields are actually very, very useless, outside of PvE. Suppose it's hours of invading with a Chaos Zweihander +5 and Grass Crest Shield speaking, but I prefer to stunlock. Shields cannot absorb the full damage of an enchanted Zweihander or Sickle, though unenchanted Falchions running the Darkmoon Blade enchantment are a form of DPS stunlock, whereas the Chaoshander +5 is a timing stunlock.

I have killed the Legend, and don't bash the triple stamina regen stack. BK shield and flamebite ring neuters the Chaos Zwei.
