@@Khaos_Kazuka You forgetting about demon scar?

[@Khaos_Kazuka]

@@N8Bakka oh I haven't forgotten about it, it's just that DS2 had a large verity of weapons and the dual wielding options were alot better. I still used the demon scar usually in pairs.

[@N8Bakka]

@@Khaos_Kazuka Yea DS2 was full of experimentation. I think ds3 has less catalyst blades because they’re quite hard to balance. They’ve either been hot garbage or pretty good. I think a dual wielding catalyst would work quite well if you took the sellsword twinblades and replaced the heavy attack with the option to cast.

[@Sketcho20]

7:59 guy did this with me in DS2. I had a strength build using both versions of the Smelter Demon swords, and he invaded me. I messed around using a bow and we had some range combat. Then I went after him and he killed me pretty fast with a dex build, duel-whip combo. Messaged me calling me a coward, and eventually got him to let me invade him. Before this, I had platinumed DS1, 3, and Bloodborne on PS4, and had most of the DS2 achievements. Took him out using the Bone Fists. This impressed him and we talked about how different the combat is in this game compared to the others. He gave me a bunch of gear, tips on a better weapon set to use, we sparred for like an hour or so using Warmth when ever one of us got too low. During these, I did actually try a few fighting styles I've seen on your past videos just for fun. He ended up friending me and it's was super awesome in the end. Beyond the games, it's people like this that have kept me in the Souls community!

[@losersbecomewinners2043]

The top ten series always reminds me why i love these game(s). That Wilfred one reminded me of some training i had when i was a newish DS1 souls player, at the taurus area. This guy taught me some gameplay mechanics, and rewarded me with a +15 greatsword (my favourite weapon in DS1)

[@Coretide660]

Wilfred had a FFXIV Dragoon as his avatar. If you can rely on a floor tank for one thing, it's to always get back up again.

As a support main: as long as your tank has HP, you can bet your ass they're getting back up. Even if they don't, it's okay, revive spells are an option owo;

Number 13 reminds me of that time on Namek when Goku was standing still and Jeice and Burter were charging at him and not landing any hits lol. Both of them are even red and blue.

[@thaias9654]

It reminds me of when NPCs look at mimics. I guess they are programmed to _know_ it’s an enemy, but to not do anything until the frame they break cover. I got saved from a mimic once when Jester Thomas one-shotted a mimic before it could even grab me.
