Figured it would be like insta death

[@Crap_A.I_bird]

​@@droopyderp5962 eternal sleep only works on enemies that fully fall asleep when it procs, and it prevents them from waking up to your attacks Outside of that it works basically the same (in pve it lasts longer and in pvp it drains more fp)

My favourite part of Thiollier's hidden needle is that it gets skill priority in the offhand like shields. This, paired with its almost invisible model means you can keep it as a hidden weapon without needing to switch and you can pull the skill out of nowhere.

[@QueenPancake-]

Very good knowledge, thank you

The shift in mentality for many of these players getting invaded is always interesting. They tend to be hyper aggressive with little to no strategy when in groups of 2-3, but some nearly give up when alone.

In that case you just need to focus on baiting them all at once with an AoE, bit its a problem when 2 are rushing you and theres some mage spamming from afar

He’s too good at the game I’m just glad I’m on a different platform so I can enjoy his content and not be picked to get destroyed 😂

[@Dang3rMouSe]

I remember when Chase did a Broken Straight Sword build for his weapon showcase in DS3, still slaughtered during invasions... probably still has the vod up. He is a monster at this lol. Next time he does a livestream (which can be rare) I recommend catching it. His experience doing invasions from DS1 till now has granted him essentially an instinctual understanding of the game mechanics ER is based upon. It's insane to watch live.
