Oh man. Does it work in pvp? Those new sorceries hit like a truck. Whenever he got to buff himself I'd make one stupid mistake and end up dead. He didn't get one buff off when I killed him. And I'm learning how to be patient right now. -popping 30 humanities and giving 30 humanities to open shortcut in izalith- Oh my god this is tedious.
nullifies damage from dark magic! he only buffed himself once right before he almost died. managed to dodge that hit and finish him off before getting blown up. i learned how to be patient. killing the stray demon with a +10 bandit's knife was definitely trying.
I have yet to even get the pendant Seems like a pretty useful tool, what does it do exactly? I had found out my BSS was able to break him out of his buff before I got killed by the AoE, so thats what saved me. I also actually blocked with the grass crest shield. Crazy right? Took a lot of damage, but I got the timing for flasking down and it was just a fun fight. 2 hours will be more than enough. If not, then yeah, parry him. I wouldn't be able to take 2 hours of getting constantly killed by him.
dude, right? seeing kalameet on the bridge was spooky enough. i just snagged the pendant so those smurfers with dark orb won't be able to snipe me from the rafters anymore. fastrolling and being quick with my soul spear button just killed Artorias. and he decided he didn't wanna do the "jump and stab YOU DIED" move very often. i'll give gwyn at least two hours before I just parry him to death.
Oh right, sorcery makes gwyn... yeah, nearly impossible. You'd have to dodge around and use the moonlight greatsword, which is, again, very doable with the light roll. I was able to beat him with the murakumo and light roll, granted it took about 6 tries and I tried about 3 different weapons, but I did beat him with a weapon with massive startup delay. The MLGS is considerably faster as well. You'd just need to get the dodge timing down (which, by the way, makes you feel like a badass when you do) Just please try a few times before parrying him to death, anticlimatic fights are never fun D: Gwyn is one of my favorite bosses in gaming for a reason, and I just feel like parrying ruins every good thing about him. Anyway, FINALLY kicked artorias's ass solo on my main character after getting smashed into pieces 3 or 4 times in a row. God it was fun. Balder swag sword, you haven't failed me yet. I haven't fought kalameet or manus on any of my characters yet. They scare the piss out of me.
I planned on dramatically rolling around and zapping him to death with Homing Crystal Soulmass and Crystal Soul Spears. Realistically, I'm probably going to parry him to death. I just need to kill Seath, Kalameet, and Manus and then it will be time to become a man and play through on NG+.
Also, NG+ Artorias won't stop beating me to a bloody pulp.
Yeah, I stopped ninjaflipping a while ago. I don't really miss it though, the fast-roll suits me better. How do you intend to kill gwyn? I'm asking because so many people parry the poor bastard to death and it's not nearly as fun as fighting him the regular way.
Fast-roll. Considered ninjaflip, but I don't want to give up my Bellowing Dragoncrest Ring.
Hey, on dark souls, about how light are your characters? Ninja roll, light roll, mid roll, etc. I'm curious to see how viable something would be for you.
