Lies of P Beginners Guide - Everything You Should Know to Get Started

[@ssjnaruto3350]

Ideal weight is less than 60% not 80%. Anything above 60 takes more stamina and makes dodging harder.

[@tyrellwreleck4226]

You don't need to dodge as a sweeper. Just practice on your block timing. This class is so strong, you can trade hp on most boss and mini boss.

Another tip that throwables like grenades and shit actually pack a punch unlike other souls games and are very common, i had quarter of health remaining for fueco boss fight and i was like 50 hp with 0 flasks , i just threw some bombs i had and he died , it was a clutch moment so please save up some throwables to use them vs bosses bcz they are very much more useful in lies of p than other souls games

[@Boss_Fight_Index_muki]

For those who didn't play the demo: The deflection works like Sekiro's, it doesn't disbalance the enemy for a riposte like in BB. Standard block: recoverable hp loss (easy but costly) Perfect guard: no hp loss and build enemy's nonvisible stagger meter. eg. When the Watchman boss does a chain attack, chain deflections are needed. This is the core part of the game and everything else is built around it. The nerfed roll during lock on is to encourage deflection.

[@slipstream7324]

They nerfed dodge to discourage multiple playstyles. One way to play.

[@CartoonWeasel]

I just souls it with dodges. Cant perfect block.for the life of me so i just dodge. Its nothing like sekiro. The perfect block window is pathetically tiny.

[@kami3449]

​@@slipstream7324im 70% through the game and dont deflect at all so thats false

[@kami3449]

​@I-am-Weasel if you want to go the deflect route just go the practice range and deflect the dummies. The timing isnt hard, it feels easier to deflect than Sekiro imo, but thats just might be because I played sekiro at 60 fps and this game at 200+ fps so everything is alot smoother. I still prefer to dodge myself though, I prefer the bloodborne playstyle.

Hey there 😊

[@brianroberts1070]

I did a motivity bill and went straight to 30 and then started putting in vitality and stamina. You have enough health in the beginning of the game. You won't get one shot at it.

[@LexGlad]

Something to note is that all the damage stats increase your physical and elemental defense up to a certain point, so its worth getting some points in all of them for survivability.

[@saadahsaadah4142]

[@travisweatherspoon8092]

This game is kicking my ass..... and i love it.

[@FAM0US-M0NSTERS-]

The Advance stat is important for using legion arms. I run a motivity build and rely heavily on the puppet string arm to get in and use minimal stamina. So I went with a high motivity/advance build. Also, when you get to the gold coin fruit tree, you can re spec all your options just by clicking on the tree again after you harvest the fruit. You don't have to wait till the end of chapter 7 when you unlock the statue

I speced into Technique and Advance. Advance is good for nonphysical damage types, but I wish it would scale physical damage on non-elemental weapons. It definitely feels wasted when I switch to a standard weapon.

[@pepsiman4418]

Why is this system so confusing

[@WBF_III]

@@pepsiman4418 IMO, it's only confusing because there is no in-game explanation for each stat. Otherwise it's just a reskin of Elden Ring's attributes/stats. I recommend pumping up health and stamina early! You can respect earlier in the game now, so experimentation is easier.

[@MinkDaddy]

I don't know if I'm the only one who felt this way, but when I played the demo, it felt like the larger weapons needed a big damage buff.

[@danielsgamerprofile4067]

What if you’re going for an elemental type build should you not focus on advance more? Clarification: I just started the game I have picked up the first elemental weapon that deals electric damage and enjoy it.. I realise I may have chosen the wrong starting class type as I had no idea really of builds or anything I was going for starting out and just picked the type weapon I wanted to start with I looked at the starts but didn’t make much from it starting out and picked the big weapon 😂😅 now liking the elemental type build and feeling inspired to go that route using prior knowledge from souls likes they tend to work better on faster move sets which you don’t get from the big weapons (not sure if they proc similarly in Lies of P?) anyways this weapon scales off advance that seems to be what boosts the elemental side of damage so should I not focus on this primarily if I’m going that route for damage or focus on that similarly to the other scale if it’s a smaller weapon for example it would be levelling both advance and technique equally? My last question then would be if going this route is limiting build wise or if there is a good amount of options for weapons which deal elemental type damage? If anyone can give any advice would be greatly appreciated also is it important enough to warrant me starting out again as I’m still relatively early and could probably speed through to where I am again… I’d want to do it now while it might only take an hour or two rather than wishing to later… not sure how much fine tuning levels is going to matter as to the limitation of the build later on… is there stat requirements in order to equip gear in this game?

I’ve just started playing this is game I love it, I’ve got a random build for some reason and it works just fine for me.. however the enemies desperately need balancing even the common guys are ridiculous

[@deviantarsenal]

Is it me or does it feel like you get locked into a blocking stance if you don't get a perfect parry? Then if the enemy has a quick follow up attack, you're less likely to get the next perfect parry...? That's what it feels like when you're fighting enemies that have rapid attack speeds, like some of the mini boss humans. The guy in Venigni's factory who is changing from the plague and needs to kill all puppets is a good example. I kept getting locked into blocking which led to a lot of frustration until I figured out how to side step him and get the rear reposte.

@@tevb8834 I do parry, I’m not struggling with lies of p, I just think the dodge, which is my favourite mechanic in any souls game, is garbage. in fact I spent hundreds of hours learning how to perfect deflect entire boss fights when sekiro came out. This game is not sekiro, it’s pg bloodborne with rainbow coloured blood. the dodge roll is slow as hell, has a long recovery, the distance is half of what it should be and above all, looks stupid. It has nothing to do with being too hard. It has to do with how it feels. You don’t even have to parry to beat this game easily, you can just hold block and get your health back for most attacks, you can cheese almost every boss with consumables. Stop being a dick, the dodge sucks. What are you white knighting for?
