Pro tip for anyone who wants to try and invade in this game and doesn't want to bother people with getting muled: titchy gren (covenant leader of the brotherhood of blood) sells infinite cracked red eye orbs in ng+ and beyond for 10k a piece. You can buy 2 stacks of 99 and then make a save back up. Higher soul memory tiers (I recently tried 3 million to 7 million) have decent activity and even some coopers!

Covenant system is unique to dark souls Elden Ring kinda went away with it however looking at the systems they could have done some type of covenant system with Elden Ring with the rune system but didn’t. Missed the mark kinda on that but honestly I never really cared for covenants all that much to begin with so I’m just kinda w/e about it.

@zawarudo8991 I disagree. Aldrich Faithfuls and Watchdogs provided a lot of organic PvP fun and made their respective areas shine; Blue Sentinels and Darkmoons were a lot of fun to fight against, and unless I was summoned to help scrubby gankers, a lot of fun to fight as; Way of Blue worked very well; though quite gimmicky, the DLC covenant was cool; and the generic invader covenant served its purpose. The only covenant that was underdeveloped was the Mound Makers, and that could have been easily solved by having the purple phantoms get their rewards by killing a boss along with the host. Overall Dark Souls 3 PvP was the greatest of any FS game. DS2 was more technical in some regards, I think it is amazing, and DS1 had its charm, but DS3 made it more accessible (DS2 Cracked Red Eye Orb PSTD) and from 2016 all the way to late 2019 was a blast. Then it got increasingly more cancerous, as all the other souls games' PvP scene. Elden Ring was doomed from the start, even lol.

Well Great heal actually is weird in the fact it uses more stamina with more endurance. A few times he had about 10% stamina remaining. At 20-30 endurance it eats all of it. Then around 35-50 it goes back to 90%. Beyond that it tends to correct itself. But also it is due to the MUCH lower APM DS2 has. Less actions, more tactical. So you don't need much stamina if you just breathe and take in the fight. But 5 vitality is just downright inexcusably low. They hell am I to do with that, bring a spoon and apron to the battlefield?? Edit: Just checked his weight. At 20.7 pounds my characters usually could light roll. I tend to go for about 40 for going into battle. Shield, staff, sword and spear with mix of Heide armor and Creighton's set. Heide Iron Mask, Heide chest, Creighton gloves and legs, 23.9 pounds total into armor. Heide sword and spear are 12 total. Blossom Kite Shield is 4, black witch's staff is 2.5. Just these add up to 42.5, then rings go on top. I personally find it to be an enjoyable go around, but I understand if not everyone likes it, it just works too well for me to not want share with others the wonders of the build. Hardest parts to get are the staff and Heide gear. The spear is a 100% drop chance from the knight in the Bastille, very close to the place the Blossom Kite Shield is acquired. Iron Mask from the knight in the gutter (do not let it fall off the ledge). Chest plate can be farmed from any Heide Knight. Creighton's gear can be bought from Melentia after killing him

For agility, I do think its a valid tip for beginners to put a little bit in there. 100 agility maxes out your item speed use, makes drinking estus about half a second faster, which makes healing a lot safer. The added s are nice too, especially with some lingering hitboxes. You can definitely learn to play without it easily enough, but it does help stop people complaining about hitboxes as much lol
@OfficialMetalhead
@OfficialMetalhead 4 күн бұрын
100 is just a 3% increase in speed from 99 agl (the actual agl breakpoint for s) so it's less than half a second of increase, practically imperceptible from 99 agl

Man DS2 invasions are so much more social and personal than DS3/ER invasions. And hard agree about Soul Memory. But it also does something kinda cool in that it forces your character to progress too and not just invade - to get invaded yourself. It means you might invade the guy who invaded you. It means you keep leveling your character until it's time to make a new character, keeping early game areas alive too.

Dark Souls 2 feels like it is the game that would benefit the most from a remake. Even more than Bloodborne, because let's be honest, all it needs is a PS5 compatibility patch to raise the framerate to 60 and fix the frame pacing issues (which people have already done by jailbreaking their PS5s). And no, not whatever nonsense that Scholar of the First Sin was. But tighten up the game feel so it's less floaty and sluggish, improve animations, update the enemies so they don't do that stupid auto-tracking thing where they rotate in place while winding up an attack, fix grab hitboxes, give it that original lighting system that was shown in the trailers, and remove soul memory in favor of level + weapon level matchmaking that DS3 and ER use. It would be a lot of work, but DS2 has a lot of really cool concepts and ideas, and it is sad to me to see it mostly abandoned outside of Return to Drangleic events.

I hate modern remakes, they always fock up the art style/direction for no reason, with no sense for what made the original original, and are overall a modern downgrade. The only reason I‘d want a DS2 remake would be to revert some of the horrible enemy placements of SotFS (random drake in heide, just why) that were ironically made by Miyazaki himself, and to revive the best multiplayer the series has ever seen.

It is worth noting that attunement is also a stat that increases the agl stat, though at a lower amount than adp itself. The most important breakpoint for agl is 100. It'll cap your item useage speed, and it will also give you 7 backstep i-frames. This data is available on the wiki. Also worth noting even though you can get to 69.9% without fat rolling it is not worthwhile to do so as above 50% equip weight you already start to lose roll and backstep distance and you suffer a hefty stamina regen penalty.

This is wrong. The first breakpoint is at 85 agility. In fact, two characters can have different roll s while both having 85 agility, because there are hidden levels within 85 agility. Past 85, there are also roll breakpoints at 88 and 92 agility. But yes, the absolute minimum s possible in a roll is 6 (at 30 fps), so you can get by just fine in PvE with the minimum.

DS2 PvP is my favorite. Hell, DS2 is my guilty pleasure. Watching all of these was the most fun I had on KZbin this month, I can never get enough DS2. 1 was great, but chain backstabs and escapes are all it is. 3 is just ganks. Elden Ring is a shitshow. Bloodborne doesn't exist. Demon's Souls is a hushed myth. But 2? Oh man the passion behind DS2. And, you didn't even mention the Arenas! Red and Blue arenas are so great, 1v1 duels were both sides play by the invader rules. Then there is the Ancient Dragon Covenant where you summon a 1v1 player. Not invader, player, where both sides can use estus and divine blessings. And that parry was so damn hype! Parry into Soul Greatsword has done me in enough times I saw that shit coming so damn quick! And that halberd backstep into Soul Greatsword, oh that was also a spectacle to see! Thank you for this, I may kick my streams back online with some DS2 set up to relive this!

Ds2 is known for doing its own thing in comparison to its siblings. Which whether someone likes ds2 or not, you can’t deny that the games that came after it copied it in one way or another in some of their mechanics and/or world building.

What advice for people who don't enjoy pvp. If invaded most of the time I will try but most of the time I don't enjoy it. when I get off work I will just be like first person and give up since the game is hard enough without forced pvp.

Pvp isn't forced. You can burn a human effigy to block invaders. It last for 1 hour I believe, and the effect works for others people's world so you get free invasion blocking sometimes

Burn an effigy in the bonfire to stop yourself from getting invaded.

@Christopher-ro1dl I just don't believe that you are invaded that much. I still play a lot and maybe get invaded once a day. There are quite a lot of places to get effigies. I dont farm them, I just get them through play, I usually have 99 of em by end game

Yes. It's legitimately fun and has a lot of interesting differences. Bonfire ascetics alone are one of the best ideas From's ever had. DS2 hate is overblown. Get a bow, never deal with the allegedly ganky mobs again. Ez game for babies.

I don’t know if any of the three can compete with Dark Souls 1, but I absolutely adore DS2. I love Dangleic and powerstancing is much more nuanced than in Elden Ring with being able to toggle between all of the different movesets for each encounter. Eleum Loyce is also my favorite DLC for any souls game period.

Phantons not being able to use estus is the best decision they ever made. Otherwise it just becomes the shit fest DS3 and ER invasions are. Most players even in group wont have heal spells. If you have a strong build 600-800 AR you can squash 4 people just yourself alone

Dark Souls 2 had the best pvp _at the time._ I cut my teeth on that game, the SoTFS version, and I say that Elden Ring is better. Bloodborne is just a quickie behind the alley if you have more than 15 Skill stat and your opponent believes that VIT is a myth.
