Kinda wish this was a talisman instead of a tear so I could play through the whole game this way instead of rushing from grace to grace to refresh the physick. Would probably need to be nerfed by removing the enhanced guard counters if they did that, but it would still be well worth the talisman slot for such a fun alternative playstyle to always be active

Finally someone doing pvp deflect. I wish they give us a deflect talisman that buff guard boost and physical damage negation for time block but didnt buff guard counter attack like crystal tear.
@michaelbowman6684Ай бұрын
It does all of those things, though? Deflects reduce incoming Physical damage by 100%, Elemental damage by 75%, and Stamina damage by 65% on top of whatever blocking stats you weapon/shield has. So for example, a +25 Carian Knight Shield would go from having a Magic Negation of 71% to an _effective_ Magic Negation of 92.75% while in terms of Stamina damage Negation, it would go from having a Guard Boost of 60% to an effective Guard Boost of 86% which is pretty good. This Crystal Tear pairs well with things like the Greatshield Talisman, Viridian Amber Medallion +3, or Pearl Shield Talisman since the Guard Counter portion of the buff is hard to land in PvP, but the other benefits it provides are great for builds that want to use something like a Sword and Board strategy.
@TrickyMellowАй бұрын
@@michaelbowman6684 Did you misread my comment? What I want is a talisman that buff guard boost and Physical damage negation only, during time block. So it not become op to the point of deflecting magic. I want to do deflect without drinking tear in the first place. Hence why I want talisman. That tear buff everything, which it should because it's a tear. But I don't want to waste tear in open world combat just to do deflect for 5 min.

Deflect into Ultra GS guard counter is disgustingly funny. 54str at level 90 is nasty work. If they made this a talisman, they would've had to make it a pretty heavy one and remove the boosted guard counter damage(else it would supplant the Curved Sword talisman entirely).

I haven't been watching anyone's content on the DLC to avoid spoilers, but I just wanted to say we have the same fashion going on, Brandon. Rellana legs and chest armor with Carrian Knight helmet and gloves. I just thought it funny that one of the first souls youtubers/streamers I watched who is my personal favorite ended up with the same armor combo I've been rocking since I beat Rellana. Especially since I used to use your armor combo from DS1, Elite Knight chest and helmet, Havel gauntlets, and Wanderer's boots. I basically just used your whole build. "Falchion OP, R2 covered in cobwebs" 12 days of Soulsmas is still one of my all-time favorite videos. "🎵and I don't even know what's happening🎵" still cracks me up to this day. Hope life is good for you.

@SeingledeАй бұрын
The only direct improvement for this build I would suggest is using it with the new Swordlance weapon instead of the actual lance. It still keeps the same R2 moveset, but instead of big slow pokes you get the faster heavy thrusting sword R1 moveset. It also has better strength scaling and base damage than the lance when Heavy infused adding up to about 100 more AR when fully upgraded and at 80 strength, meaning even more dangerous guard counters. Also, it has a lower dex requirement, giving you a few points to put elsewhere.
