Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition(360,PS3,PC)v3 - Dark Magic is perfectly balanced - Games

Although the Fap ring is pretty essential for low level builds and challenge runs. But I agree, I really like the dialogue and story of Lautrec, Petrus and Anastacia. You can also get it by dropping Xantous crown to Snuggly, if you really need it that bad.

[QUOTE=milkandcooki;39397762]my most favorite part of the game[/QUOTE] I was all set to get mad at the 2 guys who fight with Lautrec, but then I OHKO'd him with a riposte and just sort of stared at the 2 other guys before I warped out. It was like an NPC version of my favorite outcome of 3v1 invasions.

[QUOTE=MrGreed;39394146]Why? Because they're ugly? I'm sorry, but I don't see why you would care that much about something as trivial as a mask.[/QUOTE] I don't know about you but I take pride in not looking like I'm going to do nothing but crawl behind everyone and backstab them.

[QUOTE=milkandcooki;39397066]god damn this shit is getting me heated why does EVERYBODY tell all the new players to kill lautrec right off the bat? are some people unable to beat the game without the clutch ring? go through lautrec/petrus's/anastasia's story for once you NERDS. skip out on the jerkoff ring.[/QUOTE] I'd go through it every playthrough if I didn't fucking lose firelink. It completely ruins any idea of getting a +15 before anor londo, which I like to do on most playthroughs. Having to run from the parish to New Londo ~15 times is just too time consuming. Having to fight OnS AND Lautrec + Buds with a +10 isn't fun.

[QUOTE=junker|154;39399990]Get a smithbox for weapons, that way you only need to go a few times to Andre, only for the major upgrades.[/QUOTE] Still, that only gives me a +10 or a +11-12, depending if I get some chunks on my first run through New Londo.

[QUOTE=Morphology53;39400106]why would i ever give up the xanthous crown[/QUOTE] Because it looks ridiculous?

Yeah, it's better in every way, but only marginally. And when you're upgrading weapons for use in PvP, getting a slab for each one(with item ids randomized and editing them in with CE not possible anymore) isn't really an option.

Every bit of damage helps.

i think the child mask looks cool, the unsettling kind of cool

Need a new build lvl 50 pvpish. Something weapon based, done far too many sorcery/faith/pyro/gimmicks. Just wanna hit stuff. [img_thumb]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/938130502467206213/62271C8D06C47CA06D1B66919AB984867F80C6B8/[/img_thumb]

Right going to smash out that vit build.

I joined the Blade of the Darkmoon covenant for the first time a little while ago. Tried out the Blue Eye orb in various locations, only successful in Blighttown. My second target was someone who turned out to be stuck behind the fog door in the middle of Blighttown, so I messaged him and told him he could safely drop down to where the item was below him. He responded with "Fuck off, you just wanna kill me and I have class in a minute but I am ok with afking". I found this awfully rude, so I went down there myself, got a lock-on and tossed a spear at him, then told him "Have fun in class". He started to rage a lot afterwards, strangely enough. [editline]29th January 2013[/editline] Also, from this experience I take it that the Blue Orb does not give you targets scaled to your level?

I think the blue orb gives you hosts that are below your level

Great Club or Black Knight Greataxe?

[B][U]Both.[/U][/B]

and if you don't have enough endurance to hold two at once then just deal with it and do it anyway

oh I have enough endurance I even have enough for three more arm slots in which ill put all shields and I can wear two heavy armors at once but seriously this shit takes a bunch of titanite chunks that I dont have and I need to put something in dex for black knight stuff so I need to pick one lightning halberd +5 was good for a long time but I need something that scales

[QUOTE=salty peanut v2;39401659]I think the blue orb gives you hosts that are below your level[/QUOTE] Blue orb gives you anyone within 10% of your level +10, both higher and lower. Red orb gives you 10% of your level +10 lower, and infinitely higher.

Offhand the shield unless you plan to parry everything.

[QUOTE=dogmachines;39403177]Offhand the shield unless you plan to parry everything.[/QUOTE] I always mess up weapons and stuff in the planner, I always assume it works like the game with the top 2 being right hand and the bottom 2 being left. Fixed it: [url]http://mmdks.com/xtc[/url]

[QUOTE=dogmachines;39403177]Offhand the shield unless you plan to parry everything.[/QUOTE] and what if he [I]does[/I] plan on parrying everything watcha gonna do punk
